Yin Xiaoman didn't know whether she could save the man with her own abilities.
But she knew that if Shen Qingyun was gone, she and her children would lose their greatest support.
So, she had to try.
The biggest reason why the original owner was unwilling to join the army was his fear of the unknown environment.
But unfortunately——
Yin Xiaoman lived with her grandmother by the sea until she was seven years old.
For her, that piece of blue is a place that she yearns for.
In Shuanggui Village, Yin Xiaoman realized that he had no advantages.
It is impossible to continue going to school under the current circumstances. Neither she nor the original owner had any experience working in the fields, nor could they earn many work points.
I can't last long relying only on the few dozen dollars in my hand.
In the end, the biggest possibility is to repeat the mistakes of the original owner.
Instead of this, why not change the environment?
The worst outcome would be that even if he rushed over, he would not be able to save Shen Qingyun's life.
But even so, as long as they were at the beach, Yin Xiaoman was confident that he could feed the three of them with his own hands.
It's much better than staying here and waiting to die.
Gao Chong didn't expect that things would go so smoothly.
He knew that before the battalion commander expressed his plan, he had actually prepared himself for rejection.
After all, the location of their troops is indeed too remote and somewhat dangerous.
Except for those who can't make ends meet, there are simply few people willing to follow.
Even the regiment had no other choice but to allow the soldiers to find wives and start families in the garrison.
In this situation, everyone knows why the battalion commander wants to test the waters again. He is simply afraid that the children will be wronged at home.
Thinking of this, Gao Chong couldn't help but secretly look at Yin Xiaoman again, as well as Dabao and Erniu, who were leaning against her and seemed to be very close to her.
The look in his eyes was indescribably complicated.
As a scout, now that he was here, he would naturally inquire about the situation at home in advance.
So before going to the house, he found out everything that had happened during this period.
After knowing that the three mothers had suffered so much injustice, Gao Chong originally thought that what he saw must be a woman who was persecuted miserably and full of resentment.
But what he never expected was that after knocking on the door, he would see such a scene of loving mother and filial son.
"Sister-in-law, I'll send a telegram to the battalion commander when I get back. If he knew you were willing to go, he would be so happy!"
Gao Chong said with deep emotion.
After saying this, he seemed to be afraid that Yin Xiaoman would go back on her word, and quickly added, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Although our unit is a little off the beaten track, we have good food!
Not only can we eat our fill, but we can also eat meat and fish almost every day! ”
Yin Xiaoman: “…”
If she hadn't lived by the sea for many years, she would have believed it.
There is nothing to envy when all you have every day is salted fish mixed with coarse grains.
But she naturally wouldn't reveal this. She just pursed her lips and showed a faint smile.
"Then we will wait for your news at home."
"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, I'll come and tell you as soon as I get the news.
Gao Chong nodded excitedly.
When he was about to say goodbye, he suddenly knocked his head and said, "Ah! Sister-in-law, I was so happy that I almost forgot about the important matter. This is the money that the battalion commander asked me to bring back for you..."
As he said that, he took out an envelope from his military trousers pocket and handed it to Yin Xiaoman.
Yin Xiaoman didn't answer.
She waved her hand at Gao Chong and said, "It costs money to send a telegram, and I can't let you pay for it. Also, Comrade Gao, I want to ask you to do something for me."
"How much does it cost to send a telegram? This is thirty... Sister-in-law, what do you want to do?"
Seeing that she didn't want money, Gao Chong wanted to persuade her a few more times, but was attracted by her next words.
"I want you to buy us some train tickets, but I don't know how to buy them."
Yin Xiaoman spoke slowly as he recalled what the heroine had seen and heard when she was studying in the county.
She knew that it was far from here to the troops where Shen Qingyun was stationed. It was said that it would take two days and two nights just to get there by train.
But she didn't know what the flaming car was, and the original owner had never ridden in it.
Therefore, if you have someone to help you with things like buying tickets, don’t make it difficult for yourself.
Hearing her say this, Gao Chong immediately showed an expression of understanding.
It was his negligence.
Even though my sister-in-law looks elegant and like she comes from a big city, she is still young after all.
It would be difficult for her if no one helped her in this matter.
Thinking of this, he no longer refused and nodded: "Okay. I'll contact the battalion commander. As long as he has completed the formalities, I will buy tickets for you immediately. But this money..."
He wanted to say that the money could never be spent, but was interrupted by Yin Xiaoman again.
Her tone was calm but unyielding: "More refund, less supplement."
Even if you ask someone to send something out of the palace, you still have to pay for the errand. How can you just use someone for free?
Gao Chong was stunned by Yin Xiaoman's somewhat familiar tone.
It felt like facing my own battalion commander.
For a moment, I didn't dare to refuse.
When he finally realized who the person opposite him was, he couldn't help but laugh and be a little amazed. No wonder people from the same family look alike, his sister-in-law really looks alike!
How old is my sister-in-law? He looks much younger than me.
But just by listening to him you can tell he has seen the world.
Nowadays, let alone in the village, even in the county and the city, who doesn’t get eight petals for every penny?
Where is the money being pushed out?
That’s thirty dollars!
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I thought the battalion commander was really lucky in love.
He just came back to give birth to a baby, and in just a week, how could he marry such a good wife?
She is beautiful, well-educated, speaks and acts in a tactful and generous manner, and most importantly, she is genuinely good to her two children.
Just look at how affectionate Dabao and Erniu are with her. If you didn't know the inside story, you would never believe that they weren't their biological children!
What a kind heart this is!
Gao Chong secretly clenched his fists and decided not to send a telegram to the battalion commander after returning. He might as well find a place where he could make a phone call and talk to him about everything he had found out.
My sister-in-law is a good person, but she can't be bullied like this.
Explain it clearly to the battalion commander so that he can have some idea of what's going on.
If possible, leave a good impression in front of your sister-in-law.
If she knows a girl who is as good as her, she can introduce her to me...
After seeing Gao Chong off, Yin Xiaoman sat on the bench in the yard without moving.
The winter sunshine is a little chilly, and sitting for a while will make people feel cold to the bone.
But Yin Xiaoman seemed to have no feeling at all.
Her mind was full at the moment, with too many things to think about, so she took advantage of the cold to keep her awake.
Now that you have decided to leave, there are so many things to prepare in advance.
Having worked as a palace manager for so many years, she has developed the habit of doing things meticulously.
Even for a small matter like moving, Yin Xiaoman would not allow a chaotic situation to occur when the time comes.
Erniu's scream just now scared Yin Xiaoman so much that she quickly ran back from her room in the palace.
So much so that she didn't have time to think about it.
Now that she had some free time, she couldn't help but start thinking about what was going on.
Recalling the previous scene, Yin Xiaoman concluded that the room did not really exist in the world.
Because she had been in there for so long, she didn't hear any sound at all.
You have to know that the house is only a hundred steps away from the imperial kitchen, and there is a lot of people coming and going at the door on weekdays.
What's more, in that world, she should have been dead.
There was no reason for the palace to allow her residence to remain as it was, and not even take away the things inside.
But even so, the things inside are real.
The jar of milk is still in the kitchen, and Dabao, Erniu and the others actually ate the almond candy.
Yin Xiaoman’s head hurt from thinking about it, but he still couldn’t figure out why this happened.
She hit her head and decided not to think about it anymore.
Instead, he began to think about how to make the best use of everything in the room.
Since they can't go back anyway, and the things are just sitting there anyway, they might as well take them out and use them to improve their current lives.
"It's cold, mom, go back to the house."
Just when Yin Xiaoman was immersed in his thoughts, Erniu's baby voice suddenly sounded beside him.
At the same time, a thin blanket was placed on her shoulders.
Yin Xiaoman raised her head and looked at the two little guys standing in front of her, and a smile appeared on her face involuntarily.
She suddenly realized that in just two days here, she had laughed more times than in the previous year.
"Okay, let's go back to the house." Yin Xiaoman returned the thin blanket to Dabao, bent down and picked up Erniu, and said to them lovingly.
After entering the room, Dabao took two quick steps, picked up a coarse porcelain bowl from the kang table, and carefully handed it to Yin Xiaoman.
He looked at her eagerly without saying anything.
The bowl was half filled with water, and it was still steaming.
I guess this little guy got the fever while Yin Xiaoman was dazed.
She took the bowl, put it to her lips and took a sip, then she was surprised to find that the water was a little sweet, with a faint taste of almond candy.
She was so drunk that she couldn't help but be stunned.
Seeing her confusion, Erniu was busy explaining for her brother: "Brother ate half, and this half is for mom. Mom is tired."
Yin Xiaoman didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the two children looked up at her.
There was dependence and concern in that look, but at the same time, there was also an unconcealable uneasiness and flattery.
She entered the palace at the age of seven and stayed there for eighteen years.
Being able to survive in such an environment, what Yin Xiaoman understands most is not cooking skills, but human nature.
Not to mention the simple mind of this little kid that can be seen through at a glance.
She doesn’t know how Shen Qingyun raises the child?
Didn’t they say that his wife died not long ago?
Why were the two children raised by them to be so timid and live so cautiously?
This feeling reminded Yin Xiaoman of when she first entered the palace. She always felt that she was surrounded by tigers and wolves, and she would lose her life if she was not careful.
The intense anxiety and fear made her lose her innocence almost instantly, and she was busy every day thinking about how to survive.
Logically, this kind of emotion should not appear in these two children.
Even if they lost their mother, they still had their biological father who provided them with food and drink and even hired someone to take care of them.
Why are you so afraid of it? !
Could it be that before they came back, these two children had suffered some terrible injustice in the army?
Thinking of this, Yin Xiaoman's favorable impression of Shen Qingyun, which was not much to begin with, faded a little more.
