Hearing that they were waiting for a gift, Yao Yanxin gestured for her to come in: "You won't get his gift; they went out to buy their own things!"
Xiao Yan couldn't believe her ears: "No way, I asked him to buy a gift, and he just ran away?"
“We’re so familiar with each other, it’s okay if we don’t buy anything!” Yao Yanxin didn’t care.
Xiao Yan gritted her teeth: "You may not care, but do you think your commander doesn't care? He's probably itching to tear that kid's flesh off right now. And now, he's telling me to go and beg Tongtong for her hand? Isn't that just asking for trouble?"
Just then, the eagle-eyed man arrived, and Xiao Yan could only grab him: "Can you borrow a car? Come with me to buy gifts! That kid is acting like a jerk; he listened to his Aunt Yao and went straight to buy his own things!"
Hawkeye was speechless. He had just said he would definitely do a good job, but then he gave him such a big surprise.
He nodded: "Wait here for me, I'll drive over right away!"
Xiao Yandou handed the basket of diapers to Yao Yanxin, saying, "I won't go in, otherwise your husband will think we're impolite!"
"We'll leave our baby with you for now, could you watch over the baby for us? We'll come back after we finish shopping!"
Yao Yanxin was also worried that her husband might cause trouble: "Don't worry, honey, just buy whatever you need!"
"How could I just buy anything? Buy two pounds of brown sugar, ten pounds of pork, and two fish. Just prepare some vegetables for lunch, and I'll buy the rest!"
Yao Yanxin could only nod and take the child, who had been used as collateral, inside. When Grandma Xiao saw the child come in, she quickly stood up and said, "My dear grandson is here. Where is your mother?"
Yao Yanxin whispered, "She said she couldn't come empty-handed to discuss the marriage, so she went out to buy some things!"
Grandma Xiao took the child: "This is the proper etiquette. Parents should be thorough in their actions. I, this old woman, will not interfere with them and will only play with my good grandson!"
Fortunately, the market wasn't far away, and it was much easier to buy things now. Xiao Yan returned with her purchases in just over ten minutes. When they came in, Ruan Shengpeng was looking at the newspaper with a serious expression.
The newspaper was upside down, but no one reminded him. Everyone knew he was upset, and no one wanted to be cannon fodder!
They quickly set their wedding date for two days later. After the wedding, they would return to their parents' home three days later, rest for two days, and then go abroad. This arrangement was the best!
As soon as Ruan Shengpeng finished talking, he said he was going to his office and left. The eagle-eyed man followed him. Xiao Yan looked at her sleeping daughter and said, "You saw it, didn't you? Her face looks like charcoal!"
Yao Yanxin felt a bit conflicted: "You'll know how it feels when your husband gets married!"
Xiao Yan's smile vanished instantly: "Sons are still better. Bringing a wife into the family and marrying off a daughter feels like having your heart ripped out!"
"You know what this tastes like too?" Yao Yanxin asked, amused.
"Of course we know, but our two families live so close together, and our situation hasn't changed at all!"
Yao Yanxin shook her head: "It's still somewhat different, the feeling is very different!"
Two days passed quickly. The day before the wedding, Yao Tongjia slept at the military camp. She couldn't sleep because she was thinking about how she was really getting married!
She remembered that she had only been there a few days before she got married. At that time, she didn't care at all and treated marriage as a task that had to be completed.
Now that she's actually getting married, and to the same person again, she feels very different. She's a little apprehensive, wondering if she can make the marriage work.
Tonight, Yao Yanxin was unusually allowed to wake up by Ruan Shengpeng to sleep with her daughter. Yao Yanxin saw her daughter tossing and turning and asked, "Why can't you sleep?"
"Hmm, Mom, was it like this when you got married?"
Yao Yanxin sighed: "I was driven to the brink at that time. If I hadn't married your father, I would have been sold. Marrying your father at that time felt like a relief!"
"The night before the wedding, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep. I was excited that someone would protect me. Being a military wife is like a talisman!" Yao Yanxin's eyes were full of nostalgia.
"You don't need to worry. Ah Geng is a good person. Even if he really is bad, we can live a good life without him!"
Times are changing, and Yao Yanxin is also progressing. She is now much more open-minded and no longer as confined in her thinking as before. She feels that if she is unhappy, divorce is not a big deal!
Perhaps Yao Yanxin is facing the same predicament as before, and she will definitely break free on her own, rather than handing herself over to another person for protection!
She might not have suffered such torment later on, but she doesn't regret getting married. If she hadn't gotten married, how could she have two such wonderful children?
Yao Tongjia fell asleep quickly under her mother's comforting words, but she felt like she had only slept for a short while before her mother woke her up. Her mother nudged Yao Tongjia and said, "Get up and get ready, someone is coming to see you soon!"
According to custom, someone should have come to add to the dowry, but Ruan Shengpeng, as the army commander, was afraid that someone would cause trouble and gave him valuable gifts, and accused him of accepting bribes.
We've already announced that we won't accept any extra dresses, but we welcome everyone to say a few words of congratulations. We'll treat everyone to lunch at the cafeteria!
After Yao Tongjia got up, washed up, and ate breakfast, she started putting on makeup. Yao Yanxin had taken makeup courses before, so this time she did her daughter's makeup herself.
At this time, heavy makeup was definitely not an option, so Yao Yanxin decided to give her daughter light makeup, applying foundation, shaping her eyebrows, and putting on lipstick.
Then I unbraided the hair I had specially made last night, and my hair became naturally curly. I loosened it all up and tied a little bit of hair up at the top.
Her jet-black hair looked clean, flowing, and very attractive. Wearing the red dress she bought before and some heels, she looked absolutely stunning!
Yao Yanxin looked at her daughter and stroked her hair: "Tongtong, live a good life with Agen from now on. Mom hopes you will always be happy!"
Yao Tongjia's eyes welled up with tears as she hugged her mother, saying, "Mom, I will be happy!"
In Yao Yanxin's arms, Yao Tongjia thought of her mother in the afterlife. Before she passed away, her mother held her hand repeatedly, only hoping that she would live well.
Now I've not only survived, but I also have a happy life. I hope she has been reincarnated and also has a happy life!
Ruan Shengpeng knocked on the door and came in. Seeing the mother and daughter hugging each other, his nose also felt a little sore: "Many military wives have arrived. Shall we let them in?"
Yao Yanxin wiped away her tears: "Tongtong, sit down. I'll let them in and make it lively. Tongtong, you don't have to answer anything today, just smile!"
