The Pretty Military Wife

Lan Lan also came over to coax Xiao Xiaoer:

"Brother, don't cry, we have to be good boys."

Perhaps no child has ever spoken to him like this. He looked at Lanlan seriously. Liang Xinyue dressed him, and he cooperated obediently.

After putting on his clothes, Liang Xinyue also carried him to the backyard to help him pee.

Fortunately, he just peed once, so he didn't get it wet.

He took the three children out, fetched hot water for them to wash their faces and hands, and then gave each of them a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun.

Xiao Xiaoer tore the steamed buns into small pieces and soaked them in porridge, then fed them one spoonful at a time.

Lanlan also wanted to learn how to eat it this way, so Dongdong helped her tear it.

"Aunt, did your father buy you the steamed buns?"

Liang Xinyue found it funny. She probably thought that their family only had food when their father bought it, so she thought it was the same in their family.

Dongdong said sensibly:

"Auntie married Uncle Zhou, and it was Uncle Zhou who bought the steamed buns."

After taking care of the three children, Fu Chunhua came back again. This time, she also ate a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun. Liang Xinyue asked her to eat one more, but she refused. It was obvious that she was not full.

After hearing Liang Xinyue say that they would be back in the afternoon and that the child had several fractures, Fu Chunhua sighed heavily.

During the day, two other military wives came to accompany Lin Xiaoju. After she woke up, she did not ask where her son was.

After Lin Xiaoju woke up, she cried and made a fuss again. Fu Chunhua went over there and made a fuss again.

At noon, Liang Xinyue cooked another pot of porridge and wanted to invite her and her mother to eat together, but Fu Chunhua disagreed.

"Sister Fu, I've cooked everything and you said you don't want to eat here, so what should I do? Xiao Er is here with me, so just leave Dongdong and Lanlan here to accompany the kids. I have to have some free time."

Fu Chunhua turned around and went back, and actually brought some rice from home:

"We can eat here, but you have to accept the rice."

Liang Xinyue didn't want her rice, but Fu Chunhua insisted on giving it to her. In this era, food is life.

Although everyone here can eat the food supplied by men, Fu Chunhua has two children. Usually she has to buy some coarse grains and bargain grains to eat.

After the two of them wrangled for a few times, Liang Xinyue accepted it. She could give it back to Fu Chunhua in another way.

Dongdong and Lanlan like Liang Xinyue very much now.

Xiao Xiaoer completely forgot about his mom and dad when he had two children playing with him.

He is still too young. As long as he is well fed and has someone to play with, he can't think of anything else.

Occasionally I would talk about my mother, but then I would be beaten and fucked and forget about it again.

At noon, Zhou Guoliang hurried back and watched his three children eating.

"There's some porridge left for you in the pot, and a steamed bun left over from this morning. I'll bring it out for you."

Liang Xinyue hurriedly turned and went into the kitchen. Zhou Guoliang followed in, washed his hands with water, and asked in a low voice:

"Are you feeling better?"

Liang Xinyue hummed softly. It didn't hurt anymore, but she just felt a little uncomfortable.

But when I started doing things, I forgot about it.

Zhou Guoliang sighed and said:

"Xinyue, the political commissar and I have discussed this. If Daya is sent back this afternoon, I'm afraid she will have to stay in our house for you to take care of her. Do you think this is okay?"

He glanced at Lao Xiao and said:

"The nurse said that Lin Xiaoju was also injured. It was Lao Xiao who kicked her. She is also emotionally unstable. We are afraid that she will hurt the child again. Daya has several fractures on her body. She needs to be taken care of carefully."

Liang Xinyue paused and said nothing.

Zhou Guoliang was afraid that she would not agree, so he said:

"We...we are helping Lao Xiao. He and I have been comrades-in-arms for ten years. We lived and died together. Seeing his family become like this, I feel very sad. He loves his two children very much."

Liang Xinyue hummed and said:

"It's not that I disagree. Anyway, I made the other bed last night. But Daya is injured. If Xiaoer stays here too, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it well. I've never taken care of a child. In the past, I just washed your brother's children or carried them on my back at home."

Zhou Guoliang reached out and hugged Liang Xinyue:

"Only Daya can be taken care of. She is a girl, and it is not convenient to keep her in the regiment clinic. Leave her at our house. The health worker will come to see her every day. Xiaoer will be handed over to Sister Fu. The regiment will give Sister Fu some subsidies later. When this matter is over, we will send the child back."

Liang Xinyue nodded:

"That's great. Sister Fu won't have to take care of Lin Xiaoju anymore. It will be easier for her two children to take care of Xiaoer. Okay, go ahead and do your work. Just bring it back when you come back."

Zhou Guoliang said gratefully:

"Thank you, Xinyue. The political commissar and I have been very anxious these past two days. We both didn't sleep last night. Lao Xiao will be punished when he comes back. Although Lin Xiaoju was wrong, it was even more wrong for Lao Xiao to hit someone."

"It wasn't Lao Gu that day, but Lao Xiao who wanted to kill. I took the child to the clinic, and Lao Xiao collapsed on the playground when he heard the news. It was Lao Gu and another soldier who helped him to the clinic."

"Knowing that the child was seriously injured, Lao Xiao made sure that the child would not die, so he rushed back. Then the political commissar called Lao Gu over. Alas!"

Liang Xinyue also sighed:

"In fact, a forced melon is not sweet."

Zhou Guoliang hummed:

"The political commissar and I thought the same thing, but Lao Xiao had no one to tell Lin Xiaoju about his two children, so he was worried about leaving them here."

"You know what? Daya is not born with a disease that prevents her from walking. It's just that Lin Xiaoju dislikes her because she's a girl. She wanted to give her away several times and refused to take good care of her. Fortunately, her mother sometimes helped take care of her, otherwise Daya would definitely not be alive today."

"I heard from Lao Xiao that when Daya was sick, Lin Xiaoju didn't send her to the hospital for treatment. She just carried the child by herself. No one knew what was wrong with her, but she just couldn't walk. Until now, the doctor said she wasn't sick, but she still couldn't walk."

Liang Xinyue widened her eyes:

"What if she gave birth to a second child? What if it was a girl?"

Zhou Guoliang wiped his nose and said:

"Lao Xiao went on leave to visit the child and found out how she was raising the child, so he decided to bring her to the army. He thought it would be better to keep her under his watch."

"Lin Xiaoju didn't want to come, but later she made it through and asked Lao Xiao to give her another son. So, when she came, she was pregnant. Whether it was a boy or a girl, she was pregnant again."

Only then did Liang Xinyue realize that there were so many old accounts between Lao Xiao and Lin Xiaoju.

But wasn’t it Lin Xiaoju who pursued Lao Xiao first?

Liang Xinyue asked. Zhou Guoliang sighed and replied:

"Some young women have positive ideas and always think that marrying a soldier is a reflection of their positive attitude. However, only when they really marry a soldier and become his wife do they realize the hardship involved."

"Living apart, a woman has to take care of the children and work, and a man can't help her at all in life. If she follows the army, she will lose her job, and the living conditions here are not as good as in the city. Also, as a military dependent, she has to abide by some rules and regulations."

"Lin Xiaoju was praised for taking care of Lao Xiao, but later she felt that her life was not as good as her other colleagues. After making such a comparison, she accumulated resentment."
