Han Bin was confused by Xiaoman's words: "What's wrong?"
“You weren’t here when we arrived. They saw how young I was and assumed I was a stepmother. Then they saw your daughter carrying a stone and assumed I was not only a stepmother, but also a bad stepmother who didn’t care about her stupid daughter from her first marriage.”
Xiaoman stopped and glanced at Han Bin: "Originally, I wanted to be a bad stepmother for a while. But you saw through me as soon as you came back."
Han Bin was even more confused after hearing this: "Why do you want to be a bad stepmother?"
Xiaoman pointed to her face.
Han Bin: "You mean you look like a stepmother, so you want to be a stepmother?"
“No.” Xiaoman glanced at Han Bin, meaning: I knew you wouldn’t understand. “I’m too young compared to my peers.”
Han Bin still didn't understand: "Is being young a bad thing?"
Xiaoman smiled and said, "Everyone wants to stay young forever."
When Xiaoman went to join the military last time, she was still quite young, so it was normal that she didn't have any wrinkles on her face. Now, Naonao and Tengteng are almost ten years old, and Xiaoman still doesn't have any wrinkles on her face. Not to mention wrinkles, she doesn't even have crow's feet.
In the previous military region, people knew Xiaoman when she was young, and they saw her often afterward, so everyone got used to seeing her face.
Furthermore, everyone in the previous military region knew that Xiaoman not only knew how to catch thieves, but also dared to venture deep into the mountains to collect medicinal herbs. Therefore, Xiaoman's abilities were more eye-catching than her appearance.
The people here had never seen Xiaoman before, nor did they know what she had done in the past. Their first reaction upon seeing Xiaoman was: How come this woman is so young? This woman is definitely not Deputy Division Commander Han's first wife.
Now that they know Xiaoman is Han Bin's first wife and the mother of their children, the question arises: how does Xiaoman maintain her youth?
Han Bin understood: "You mean they'll come to you for advice?"
"Yes. A few days ago, they thought I was a bad stepmother and disdained to associate with me."
Han Bin rubbed his nose: "I...I didn't think that much about it. I got angry as soon as I heard them say those things."
Xiaoman smiled and said, "It's alright, they'll find out sooner or later."
Han Bin looked at Xiaoman's face: "Right now, when people see you, they think you're the young wife I married later. But in a few years, will people think you're my daughter?"
Xiaoman smiled: "Yes."
"No way. I need to take care of myself too." If he doesn't, Xiaoman will start to dislike him: "Xiaoman, how do you take care of yourself?"
“I exercise every day, and Uncle Guo also takes care of everyone’s health through diet. Apart from my sister, none of the other children have given me any trouble. You are also very well-behaved. In addition, I have a few health care tips.”
Han Bin thought for a moment. He was a man, and he had to provide for his wife and children. So, it was impossible for him not to worry. As for the other three points, the first two were self-explanatory; he exercised every day and ate Uncle Guo's cooking every day. Now, only the last point remained: "Xiaoman, can I use your prescription?" Some prescriptions are suitable for women but not for men.
"Just adjust it a little."
Is it easy to do?
"Easy to do."
When will it be finished?
Xiaoman raised an eyebrow: "What? Getting impatient?"
Han Bin nodded: "If I don't take care of myself, I'll really look like your father in a few years."
Xiaoman smiled and said, "Three days."
"By the way, what do you say if someone asks you? That's not acceptable these days." Han Bin was afraid people would say Xiaoman's style was bourgeois.
"You don't need to worry about that." Xiaoman pinched Han Bin's ear: "Did you miss me?"
Han Bin's face immediately turned red: "I've thought about it."
Xiaoman kissed Han Bin on the cheek: "What were you thinking about?"
"I want to go everywhere."
"Really?" Xiaoman placed her hand on Han Bin.
Han Bin quickly grabbed Xiaoman's hand: "Little Xiaoman, you're teasing me again."
Xiaoman gently bit Han Bin's neck: "I'm hungry."
"I'm hungry too. Coco, it's not dark yet."
Xiaoman shifted her body slightly towards Han Bin.
Han Bin couldn't take it anymore: "Xiao Xiaoman, if you move again, I'm going to close the door."
Xiaoman kissed Han Bin on the lips: "I'll deal with you tonight."
Han Bin hugged Xiaoman's waist: "How are you going to deal with me?"
Xiaoman whispered a few words in Han Bin's ear.
After hearing this, Han Bin hugged Xiaoman even tighter: "Wife, I want to go close the door."
Xiaoman nipped at Han Bin's ear: "Then go ahead and lock him up."
Han Bin moved his hand on Xiaoman's waist: "Xiaoman, you're so naughty."
Xiaoman nibbled on Han Bin's ear again: "I can be even worse."
Han Bin wanted Xiaoman to be even worse. But if she got any worse, he would really go and close the shop. "Xiaoman, I have a dog."
Xiaoman smiled and said, "Your daughter said that dog is really stupid; it can't understand what you're saying."
Han Bin touched his nose: "Old Wolf is smarter than other dogs, but not as smart as Little Black."
"Old Wolf? Looks like a wolf? As fierce as a wolf?"
"He looks like a wolf, and he's just as fierce as a wolf. That day, Xiao Qin and I had just arrived at the military region," Han Bin recounted the events of that day.
Xiaoman smiled. She had already guessed this. "Have they accepted you yet?"
"A little. I haven't fully accepted it yet."
"That's normal. Where's Old Wolf?"
"I left it with Company Commander Hao when I was away on a business trip."
"Bring it back."
"Okay. I'll go get it then."
"Okay. Invite Xiao Qin over for dinner." Xiao Qin is Han Bin's bodyguard, and Xiao Man used to often invite him to her home for meals.
Okay. I'm off then.
Xiaoman patted Han Bin's bottom: "Go ahead."
Han Bin kissed Xiaoman on the cheek: "I'm leaving."
"Okay. Go to the kitchen and get a bag of snacks for Company Commander Hao."
"Um."
As soon as Han Bin came out of the house, he said to the children, "Dad has a dog. I wasn't home a few days ago, so I left it with someone else. Now I'm going to pick it up. Do you want to come with me?"
Sister: "I'll go, I'll go, Daddy, hug me."
Han Bin picked up his sister and asked, "What about you two?"
Having not seen Han Bin for so long, Nao Nao and Tengteng missed him and said they wanted to go.
Han Bin asked Nao Nao to go to the kitchen and get a bag of snacks. After Nao Nao brought out the snacks, Han Bin told Xiao Man and then took the children out.
On the way, people saw Han Bin leading his five sons and were incredibly envious. They used to think he was just a simpleton because he had a silly daughter, but now...
Someone saw the older sister and asked her, "Girl, where's your stone?"
"At home."
"How could you bear to bring it home?"
"I forgot."
Han Bin pinched his sister's nose. "You little devil."
Nao Nao and Tengteng both know that their older sister left Mei Mei at home because someone else wanted to hold her.
When Company Commander Hao saw Naonao, Tengteng, Zuozuo, and Youyou, he gaped in astonishment: "My goodness, they really do look exactly alike! Deputy Division Commander, how did you tell them apart?"
Han Bin touched his nose: "I am their father."
After explaining to everyone that Xiaoman was Han Bin's first wife, Xiao Qin came to see Lao Lang. Hearing Han Bin's words, Xiao Qin looked at him and smiled. The implication was: "Deputy Division Commander, you're trying to fool people again. Your words have two meanings: First, I'm their father, of course I can tell the difference. Second, I'm their father, it doesn't matter if I can't tell the difference."
Han Bin glared at Xiao Qin. The message was clear: If you dare expose me, I won't bring you home for dinner.
Xiao Qin quickly said to Company Commander Hao, "I didn't lie to you, did I?"
"Hmm. My goodness, two sets of twins, and they all look exactly alike."
Xiao Qin: "Three pairs. The older sister and younger brother are also twins."
Company Commander Hao was surprised again. He was nearly scared to death by his sister's reaction.
