Chapter 69: Staying here too?
Zhou Lin frowned upon hearing this, "Wen Jinzhou's mother?"
"Um!"
Why did you hit him?
"It seems to be because his sister is sick," Xie Zhizhi said, slurping up some ribs.
"Because of this?" Zhou Lin was also surprised.
"His sister is a grown woman, she eats all kinds of food, isn't it normal for her to get sick?"
"It's nothing serious!"
Xie Zhizhi nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, that's what Battalion Commander Wen said too, but his mother doesn't seem to think so, she looks very angry."
“Wen Jinzhou’s sister is somewhat like his mother,” Xie Zhizhi concluded. “I’m referring to her temperament,” Xie Zhizhi added.
Zhou Lin fell silent.
The two then ate their meal in silence.
Unlike the quietness around Zhou Lin and his group, Wen Jinzhou's dormitory downstairs was quite noisy.
Wen Qianqian, who was lying on the bed cosplaying as a sickly beauty, immediately sat up when she saw Ms. Xu Shanshan, and then opened her mouth and wailed, "Mom... Waaah, Mom, you're finally here!"
She cried out and opened her arms wide. Xu Shanshan immediately rushed over and hugged her tightly with heartache.
As Wen Jinzhou watched this scene, his hand unconsciously touched the half of his face that had just been hit.
My heart feels bitter.
Although he knew he shouldn't be jealous of his sister—he wasn't young anymore, and he was a man—he still felt a pang of unease, a deep discomfort.
Wen Jinshu stood next to Wen Jinzhou, watching her younger brother touch his face. She raised her left hand and gently pushed up the frame of her glasses on her nose, while gently patting her brother's shoulder with her right hand.
Wen Jinzhou turned to look at his older brother beside him, his eyes filled with obvious grievance.
After Wen Qianqian threw herself into Xu Shanshan's arms, she immediately began to complain, "Mom, my second brother doesn't like me, he doesn't like me," she cried pitifully.
"Qianqian, don't be afraid. Mom will punish him. Don't worry," Xu Shanshan comforted her softly, patting her back gently, her tone as if afraid of breaking some exquisite porcelain.
"Waaah, my second brother left me here all alone and won't come back. He doesn't care about me at all," Wen Qianqian continued to complain.
Wen Jinshu couldn't help but say, "I advised you before you came that your second brother has to work here and definitely can't take care of you, so I told you not to come."
"Besides, the military is not a place for enjoyment. If you can't stand the hardship, you just won't listen."
Wen Qianqian ignored everything, "Waaah, my older brother is mean to me too, he doesn't like me either..."
"Jinshu," Xu Shanshan suddenly turned around and sternly called out to Wen Jinshu.
Wen Jinshu frowned slightly, "Mom..."
"Don't call me Mom. You two have both grown up and forgotten what sibling affection is."
"how?"
Are you going to teach me a lesson too?
"I allowed Qianqian to come. If you have anything to say, just say it to me. Don't make things difficult for Qianqian."
"You know I didn't mean that," Wen Jinshu said, then shut up and turned to leave the bedroom.
He has a slightly more temper than Wen Jinzhou.
Wen Jinzhou quickly stepped forward and said, "It's my fault, it's my fault. But Qianqian just had a fever, and she's completely recovered now."
Xu Shanshan had calmed down a bit because of Wen Jinshu's words, but Wen Jinzhou's words immediately caused her to explode again: "It's just a fever?"
She looked at Wen Jinzhou with disappointment, "Wen Jinzhou, what happened to you?"
"I remember... I remember you used to be a very caring and warm-hearted person. How did you become so cold-blooded?"
She pointed at Wen Qianqian in her arms, her eyes filled with disappointment as she looked at Wen Jinzhou. "This is your sister. She traveled a long way to visit you, and then she got sick and has been in bed for two days. And you're telling me it's just a fever?"
"What? Are you disappointed that she's neither dead nor crippled?"
Xu Shanshan's disappointed gaze and his seemingly dagger-like words made Wen Jinzhou's face turn pale. "No, Mom, that's not what I meant..."
"Then what do you mean?" Xu Shanshan asked.
Before Wen Jinzhou could reply, Xu Shanshan pointed to the door and said, "Get out. I don't want to see you right now." When she said this, her expression was no longer agitated, but filled with disgust.
Wen Jinzhou looked at her disgusted eyes, and his usually gentle face was now filled with hurt.
Meanwhile, Wen Qianqian was nestled in Xu Shanshan's arms, silently making faces at Wen Jinzhou, and silently telling him, "Beg me!"
Wen Qianqian has been like this since she was a child. It seems that she has always known that she is the one who is favored. So if Wen Jinshu or Wen Jinzhou is dissatisfied with her in any way, she will cry and shout that she has been bullied.
When Xu Shanshan scolds the two, she will smugly hint to them that as long as they beg her, she will plead for them.
Before discovering Wen Qianqian's intentions, Wen Jinzhou truly treated her like a younger sister and never found her actions particularly disgusting. Whenever she gave such a silent hint, Wen Jinzhou would immediately put his hands together and beg her, "Sister, good sister, please help your second brother explain to Mom."
But today...
Wen Jinzhou glanced at the smug Wen Qianqian, then turned and left the room.
Wen Qianqian was furious and pounded the bed with her hands, yelling, "Second brother is so annoying! Second brother is the most annoying!"
Xu Shanshan quickly sat down on the edge of the bed and comforted her, "Okay, okay, don't be angry. Mom will definitely teach him a lesson later. Don't be angry."
As Xu Shanshan spoke, she raised her hand to touch her hand and face, then looked at her with concern, "You've lost weight!"
In the living room, Wen Jinshu watched Wen Jinzhou being kicked out, then stepped out of the room.
Wen Jinzhou followed.
The two brothers went downstairs one after the other!
Once downstairs, Wen Jinshu found a shady spot, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and routinely offered it to Wen Jinzhou.
Wen Jinzhou waved his hand, "I won't smoke!"
Wen Jinshu didn't insist and ordered it herself.
Soon, his dark eyes and fair face were obscured by the smoke.
Wen Jinzhou stepped aside and advised him, "Try to smoke less when you have nothing to do."
Seeing his actions, Wen Jinshu threw the cigarette in her hand on the ground and stubbed it out. "I'm not smoking. You and your sister-in-law are planning to have a child."
Wen Jinzhou nodded, "You two have been married for a year, it's time to have a child."
Upon hearing this, Wen Jinshu raised her lips and looked at him, "Then shouldn't you be getting married?"
"Didn't you mention it to my family for me?" Wen Jinzhou thought of what he had said on the phone.
Wen Jinshu nodded, "Yes, Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad all agree."
Just as Wen Jinzhou was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Wen Jinshu paused and said, "I saw Mom frown at the time. Perhaps... she knows about Qianqian's matter." Wen Jinshu frowned after she finished speaking.
Wen Jinzhou: "...What do you mean?"
Wen Jinshu didn't speak, she just stared at him.
Wen Jinzhou looked like he'd been struck by lightning, "I..." He couldn't accept it.
Wen Jinshu could only pat him on the shoulder and say, "Be prepared, this time... it might be a bit troublesome."
Wen Jinzhou couldn't utter a word, but Wen Jinshu asked him, "That girl who was talking to you earlier..." He turned to look upstairs, "Does she also live here?"
