Zhang Jun thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
Han Bin laughed as soon as he heard that: "You're lying to me again. I won't fall for it."
“I’m not lying to you. But you,” Zhang Jun looked at Han Bin, “I feel like you were just saying that offhand?”
Now Han Bin was in a dilemma. If he admitted that he had just said it casually, Zhang Jun would be very embarrassed. After all, Zhang Jun had already agreed. If he didn't admit it, then Youyou would have an extra little wife. What if Youyou didn't like Yuyu when she grew up...? "You figured it out? Haha... No wonder you agreed so readily. Haha..."
Zhang Jun smiled and said, "Even if you're serious, I'll still agree."
Han Bin wanted to ask why, but his intuition told him that he would definitely regret it if he asked.
Seeing that Han Bin didn't ask, Zhang Jun continued, "Ever since I had my daughter, I've been thinking: what kind of person will my daughter marry when she grows up? If Youyou and Yuyu are betrothed, I will be Youyou's father-in-law and have the right to teach him. Youyou is only three years old now, and I believe that under my guidance, Youyou will definitely become a good husband. So, even if you're serious, I will agree."
Han Bin thought: Luckily, I didn't lie just now. Otherwise, Youyou would have fallen into Zhang Jun's hands: "Yuyu is only three years old, and you're already thinking about raising a good husband for her. You're quite the father. But if Yuyu and Youyou are betrothed, then Xiaoman and I will also be qualified to teach her. Aren't you afraid I'll corrupt your daughter?"
Zhang Jun glanced at Han Bin and said, "With Xiaoman around, you won't have a chance to corrupt my daughter."
Han Bin rubbed his nose. "Xiaoman took the children out for more than a month this time. When they came back, the children told me that our military region is still the best. It's simple and safe. You should also take Yuyu out for a trip. After you've been there, you'll find that our military region is still the best, simple and safe. The longer you travel, the more you'll feel that our military region is the best, simple and safe."
Han Bin repeated the same thing three times.
Zhang Jun understood. Han Bin probably wanted to tell him something, but couldn't say it outright. "Okay, I'll take Yu Yu out for a walk when I have time."
"Hmm. By the way, have you been in contact with your brother-in-law lately?"
"No."
"I was also wondering when he's coming? I'm not used to him not coming to my house for meals. Haha... Okay, I'm leaving now."
"Um."
When Zhang Jun arrived at school, he told the principal that his grandfather wasn't feeling well and he wanted to go back to visit him. The principal gave him a week's leave. The next day, Zhang Jun packed his bags and left.
A week later, Zhang Jun returned.
As soon as Zhang Jun entered the door, Yu Yu ran over and said, "Dad, you're back?"
"Hmm. Have you been a good student at home?"
"good."
After putting his things away, Zhang Jun picked up Yu Yu and said, "Come on, Daddy will take you out to play."
Li Guixiang: "Don't go out, it's getting dark."
"I need to speak with Han Bin about something."
Li Guixiang's face immediately darkened: "What do you want with him?"
"I want to ask him something. Mom, we won't be back for dinner tonight."
Li Guixiang was even more unhappy: "You're going to Wang Xiaoman's house for dinner?"
"Um."
"no."
"Mother, Han Bin is alright. Mother, let's go."
Han Bin had just come out of the army when Zhang Jun stopped him. "I want to talk to you."
"Okay. Let's go to my place."
When Han Bin and Zhang Jun returned, Zuo Zuo and You You were playing with Xiao Hei in the yard.
After greeting Han Bin, Zuo Zuo, You You, and Zhang Jun and his daughter greeted each other.
Yu Yu was delighted to see Zuo Zuo and You You: "Dad, they're the same. It's fun."
Zhang Jun put Yu Yu on the ground.
Zuo Zuo: "Yu Yu, you really made things difficult for us last time."
Youyou: "Yuyu, next time you want to go somewhere, remember to tell your grandma."
"Okay." Yu Yu didn't quite understand what Zuo Zuo was saying, so she ignored it.
Xiaoman came out of the house: "Zuozuo, get some food for Yuyu."
Just as Zuo Zuo was about to agree, You You ran towards the kitchen: "Mom, I'll go."
A moment later, Youyou returned: "Yuyu, here you go."
Yu Yu glanced at Zhang Jun, who nodded. Yu Yu then took the food from her right hand and said, "Thank you. My name is Yu Yu, what's yours?"
"My name is Youyou."
Zuo Zuo then said, "My name is Zuo Zuo."
Yu Yu looked at Zuo Zuo and blinked in confusion: "Why don't you call me You You?"
"Uh... I... my name is Zuo Zuo."
Yu Yu looked at Zuo Zuo and then at You You: "No, you're also called You You." Yu Yu felt that Zuo Zuo and You You looked the same, so their names should be the same too.
Zuo Zuo: "My name is Zuo Zuo."
Yu Yu: "Right, right."
"My name is Zuo Zuo."
"Right, right."
...
For a long time afterward, Yu Yu called Zuo Zuo Zuo You. Zuo Zuo was very upset. But no matter how Zuo Zuo explained, Yu Yu felt that people who look alike should have the same name.
After Zuo Zuo explained a lot, Yu Yu took two apples and placed them in front of Zuo Zuo: "They're the same. They're both called apples."
Now, Zuo Zuo didn't know how to explain it either.
Nao Nao and Tengteng suffered the same fate.
As Zuo Zuo defended her name, Xiao Man looked at Zhang Jun and said, "Come in and sit down."
"good."
After they were seated, Han Bin poured Zhang Jun a cup of tea: "Have some tea."
“Okay. I went out for a walk a few days ago…” Zhang Jun shared his observations: “In a few days, I’d like to bring my grandparents over.”
Xiaoman smiled. "Yes. To live out my old age in peace."
The three chatted for a while longer, and then the food was ready.
After seeing Zhang Jun and his daughter off, Han Bin asked Xiaoman, "Should I write a letter home?"
“Even if you explain it to them now, they won’t understand. Dad and Grandma haven’t met Zuo Zuo and You You yet. I’ll take them back for a visit later.”
"good."
Soon, Zhang Jun brought his grandparents over. Grandpa Zhang also enjoyed playing chess, and within a few days, he and Lao Shang became chess friends.
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
After the external situation changed, Xiaoman stopped collecting herbs.
Tang Huihui was working when Han Yong came over: "Auntie, Binzi's wife is back."
Tang Huihui chuckled upon hearing this: "These three women left quite quickly. We only received the letter the day before yesterday, and they're back today. No, I need to ask the team leader for leave. I haven't seen Zuo Zuo and You You for years."
Grandma Han is getting old, and she stopped working this year. When Tang Huihui came back, Grandma Han was cracking walnuts for Zuo Zuo and You You.
Zuo Zuo and You You still remember Tang Huihui.
As soon as Tang Huihui returned, Zuo Zuo ran over and hugged her, saying, "Grandma."
Youyou followed and said, "Grandma, we've come back to see you."
"Okay, okay." Tang Huihui hugged the two children tightly. "Grandma missed you so much."
The others were also happy to see Xiaoman, Zuozuo, and Youyou when they returned from work. Although Li Qiaoqiao was a little afraid of Xiaoman, she was sure Xiaoman had brought a gift with her.
Sure enough, after dinner, Tang Huihui distributed the things Xiaoman brought back to everyone. Li Qiaoqiao had been doing well these past few years, so Tang Huihui also gave her some.
After distributing the items, Tang Huihui told everyone to rest. Zuo Zuo and You You also went to play with Er Niu. Only Grandma Han, Han Dashan, Tang Huihui, and Xiao Man remained in the house.
Xiaoman told them about the situation outside and their guesses.
Although Grandma Han didn't understand these things, Han Bin was the most successful person in the family and had been traveling extensively, gaining a wide range of knowledge. Xiao Man was also very capable. Grandma Han, Han Dashan, and Tang Huihui believed what they said.
Han Dashan thought for a moment: "Your eldest brother and the others are fine, and with your mother and me watching over the third brother, he shouldn't dare to do anything reckless. It's just the third brother's wife..."
Xiaoman smiled and said, "I have a way."
