"It's good that someone is willing to take care of us. No one cares about us. Do you really think your daughter wants to eat those two fruits? Isn't it because they feel sorry for you?"
"Yes, she hired people and bought saplings, which must have cost her a lot of money. I think your love for her was not in vain."
Zhao Meiya waved her hands pretending to be modest, but the corners of her lips that were raised could not be lowered.
"I was good to her before, and now she's good to me. Isn't that how parents and children should behave? What's there to say?"
"Whether children are filial or not can be seen from where their parents live.
I heard Ruixue and Qiusheng had a fight over the layout of your rooms. Tsk, tsk, this is so convenient from the inside out. Do you guys live in separate rooms?"
Zhao Meiya now dislikes her husband. "Da Gen snores like thunder, and it keeps me awake."
"Look, we can even get separate rooms, which means we have enough places to live.
People like us have to squeeze into one room with our grandchildren. It's so noisy when they sleep, kicking the quilt and grinding their teeth, just like a mouse and two cats have entered the room and they keep noisy all night.
I was a light sleeper, and when I finally managed to get some shut-eye, I was kicked awake as soon as I turned my head."
The person next to him joked, "Having many grandchildren is not a good thing. I think you are enjoying it."
The man quickly shook his head, obviously extremely annoyed. "What's there to be happy about? I've taken care of children all my life, and now I'm taking care of grandchildren. It's not a good thing. I'm asking for trouble."
"You're doing well. After all, your house is the largest and most spacious in the house. Remember Mr. Zhang next door? He gave birth to three sons. What's the point?
His house has only three rooms, all of which are occupied by children. The two old people were forced to live in a shack. It is cold in winter and hot in summer. It is not a place for human habitation.
Within two years, Old Zhang and his family passed away one after another. The shack was demolished as soon as the coffin was laid to rest. No one in the Zhang family went there anymore. I guess they were afraid of being found in the middle of the night.
"Old Zhang had a hard time. When there was a famine in the city, he dug ditches for others to earn food. His white hair came from that hard work.
His wife got into a fight with someone while digging wild vegetables. She refused to let go even though she had a hole in her head, saying that the children at home would starve to death if they didn't have any food. Who could have imagined that she would raise a few ungrateful children in the future?
Alas, I would say that children should not be spoiled too much..."
After everyone sighed, they turned to talking about parenting, mainly asking Zhao Meiya for advice, praising her so much that she looked very happy.
…
The last time Ren Chengmian came back, he brought him a piece of news, saying that his relative named Luo in his unit, who would be the one who would promote the male protagonist in the plot, had been transferred to another military region.
It is located further south than the island where Qiao Rui is located. It is more unstable there and is frequently harassed by pirates from some fur-covered ocean-going fleets and enemy fleets.
Brigade Commander Luo was devoted to his country. Upon hearing the news, he immediately volunteered. Considering his outstanding ability in naval combat, his superiors agreed to his request for rotation and promoted him half a level before transferring him there.
In fact, as early as after Huo Tingxun injured his leg and left the front-line team, Commander Luo paid much less attention to him.
He is a person who promotes people based on their talents and wants to train more outstanding generals for the navy and even find a successor for himself.
After all, all his children had died in previous wars, and it was a pity that no one had to inherit his skills.
The person he originally chose was Huo Tingxun. After learning that he was injured and could not continue fighting, he did not give up. After all, he could cultivate his ability to command behind the scenes.
But when the news of his punishment came, Brigadier General Luo was completely disappointed.
How much value can a person who does not obey orders from his superiors, acts arbitrarily, and acts rashly and aggressively have in training? He is simply a piece of rotten wood that cannot be carved.
Later, he became the son-in-law of the leader, and he did a lot of things to form cliques and fight for power and profit.
Such people are more suitable for politics than for the military.
So he turned his attention to another person, Qiao Rui.
Like me, he came from a rural background and worked his way up through hard work, taking a steady and cautious approach.
Although I don't see any great command ability, it is extremely difficult to have not made any mistakes over the years.
This is how the battlefield is. Making mistakes is much more serious than doing nothing. Every order involves the lives of several soldiers.
Although his fighting style is too conservative and conflicts with mine, he is a humble person willing to learn, so I will teach him slowly in the future.
So Brigade Commander Luo observed for a year before deciding on the successor, and specifically asked Qiao Rui if he wanted to go with him.
Qiao Rui was hesitating, after all, he couldn't bear to leave his wife and children, but He Xiasheng was more decisive than him.
"Go! How could I delay you from such a great opportunity? Brigadier General Luo will be promoted to a higher rank once he goes there. He might even become the top commander there in the future."
As his direct subordinate, as long as you maintain your current momentum, you don't have to worry about anyone stealing your credit or lowering your rank."
"What about you and the kids?"
"Of course I'll go with you. They might be short of a doctor who can perform surgery there. I can just apply to be transferred there.
As for the children, it's really not suitable to stay in such a chaotic situation. We should just send them back and let their parents help take care of them. After all, they are already in junior high school and can take care of themselves."
"Xia Sheng..."
He Xiasheng covered his mouth, his eyes revealing determination.
"You know, I'd rather die than be with you. If something really happens, I definitely can't survive alone. It's better to get your news first, at least I won't have any regrets."
Qiao Rui held her in his arms for a long time without saying a word.
He understood, because he was the same. If Xia Sheng was not there, he probably wouldn't even have the courage to face the sunshine the next day.
