I relied on my heart to play badly in front of my husband, an officer.

That day, Sheng Zeyan came home from get off work and brought a piece of news to Bai Youyou, and told her when the family was sitting together for dinner.

"Youyou, my brother called me today."

Bai Youyou, who had a mouthful of rice in her mouth, swallowed the rice in a hurry after hearing Sheng Zeyan's words. She choked on the rice and started coughing.

Zhang Ru, who was sitting next to her, saw this and glared at the culprit Sheng Zeyan while raising her hand to gently pat her on the back to relieve her tension.

"Xiao Ze, why are you still sitting here? Hurry up and pour Youyou a glass of water." After scolding Sheng Zeyan loudly, he turned around and said to Bai Youyou tenderly:

"Oh, daughter-in-law, are you feeling better? Okay, okay, let's stop coughing. If you keep coughing, your throat will feel uncomfortable.

It’s all Xiaoze’s fault. We were eating! What happened that made you so upset?

Sheng Zeyan felt very distressed when he saw Bai Youyou coughing violently. He put the water aside and walked around the table to Bai Youyou's side.

He also raised his hand to pat Bai Youyou on the back to help her breathe.

After a while, Bai Youyou stopped coughing and calmed down.

After seeing that Bai Youyou stopped coughing, Zhang Ru hurriedly handed her the water and asked her to drink it.

After taking a few sips to relieve the burning sensation in her throat, Bai Youyou finally returned to normal.

He raised his eyes, which were filled with tears from the violent coughing, and looked at Sheng Zeyan and asked:

"Husband, you just said that your eldest brother called you, right? Did he call because something happened at home?

Tell me what he said to you.

Zhang Ru, who was standing by, was also a little anxious. "Xiao Ze, why don't you tell me if something happened at home? Can't you see that Youyou and I are very worried?"

Looking at the two important women in his life, Sheng Zeyan felt helpless. He didn't seem to have said anything bad was going to happen just now.

I don’t know how they made the connection that a phone call meant something bad was going to happen.

Could it be that something good happened at home that's why he called us?

But he didn't dare to complain at this time. If he dared to express his dissatisfaction, he would not be able to eat this meal. His mother would definitely make him starve.

There was a chance that he wouldn't even get a sip of the northwest wind, because today, there was no fucking wind at all.

After figuring this out, Sheng Zeyan could only quickly tell them the content of his brother-in-law's call before his mother asked the next question.

"Mom, Youyou, what are you thinking about? Everything is fine at home, nothing bad has happened. Not only that, nothing bad has happened.

There are good things happening at home.”

Zhang Ru and Bai Youyou breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that everything was fine. Bai Youyou took another sip of water and said,

"I was so scared, I thought something happened at home, I'm glad nothing happened.

Husband, please tell me what good news has happened. Is my second brother going to get married too?

How could it be possible! When we left, my second brother didn’t even have a partner, so how could he be getting married so soon?

Sheng Zeyan turned around and sat back in his chair, saying, "No, it's my eldest sister-in-law who is pregnant. My eldest brother called to tell us the good news and also told us that my second brother and your friend are coming to the army to look for us, so we should pick them up at the station."

"Really? My sister-in-law is pregnant! This is really great. A little life will finally be born in our family." Bai Youyou said in surprise, her face full of joy.

Zhang Ru was also beaming. "This is a big happy event, we have to celebrate it properly. Oh, and I have some cotton. I'll make some clothes for the kids one of these days!"

I originally planned to save up some cotton to make a cotton-padded jacket for you, Youyou, for the New Year, but now I'll make one for the child first. Youyou, I'll buy some and make it when I get more cotton coupons."

Bai Youyou was touched, "Mom, no need, you can keep the cotton to make your own clothes!

There are still ten months until the baby is born! I can still make it for him after he is born.

I heard the winter here is quite cold, so you should make your own cotton-padded clothes."

Zhang Ru patted Bai Youyou's hand and said, "Mom has winter clothes, don't worry, I won't be cold."

Sheng Zeyan watched this scene of loving mother and filial son from the side. If you didn’t know, you would think they were real mother and daughter!

No, even some biological mothers and daughters are not as good as them.

This realization made Sheng Zeyan very happy.

Bai Youyou looked at Sheng Zeyan and said with a smile on her face, "Hubby, my big brother must be so happy."

"Yes, my brother was very happy on the phone." Sheng Zeyan responded with a smile.

"When will second brother and Lin Xiaolin come?" Bai Youyou asked.

"About three days from now in the morning. It happens to be Saturday and we all have a day off. We can make arrangements in advance for that day." Sheng Zeyan answered after thinking for a moment.

"Okay, I'll listen to you.

"Husband, can I go to the army and use the army phone to call home?" Bai Youyou asked Sheng Zeyan.

"Well, okay, come with me to the army tomorrow! I knew you wouldn't be worried if you didn't call home." Sheng Zeyan looked at Bai Youyou with a smile.

Bai Youyou chuckled and replied in a coquettish tone: "Hehe, I knew it, my husband still understands me."

Zhang Ru was watching them with a smile on her face, and the atmosphere was warm.

In the next two days, after Bai Youyou talked to her family on the phone, she and Zhang Ru got busy after get off work, cleaning the guest rooms and preparing various local specialties, intending to let her second brother and Lin Xiaolin feel the warmth of home as soon as they arrived.

Finally, early Saturday morning, Sheng Zeyan brought Bai Youyou to the station.

In the crowd, Bai Wei's familiar figure soon came into view. Next to him stood a pretty girl, who was Bai Youyou's friend Lin Xiaolin.

"Second brother, here we are! We are here." Bai Youyou waved excitedly after seeing them coming out of the station.

Bai Wei walked over quickly, pulling Lin Xiaolin along, a bright smile on his face. "Little sister, brother-in-law, you guys missed me so much!"

Lin Xiaolin was jumping for joy while holding Bai Youyou's hand. "Youyou, Youyou, I'm here to see you. Are you happy? I'm so happy.

I'm telling you, I've taken half a month off from the factory this time! I have to have enough fun here before going back to work."

Bai Youyou happily pulled Lin Xiaolin's hand back, "Xiaolin, I'm so happy that you can come to the army to see me, but the bad thing is, I may not be able to spend that long with you. I'm sorry."

Lin Xiaolin waved her hands generously, "Oh, what's the big deal? Isn't my aunt at home? It's okay for me to play with her!

Besides, you have a few days off to accompany me, that's all." After Lin Xiaolin finished speaking, she pulled Bai Youyou and whispered:

"Youyou, I've taken a year's leave this time. You promised to find me a partner in the army, and I've always remembered it.

I'm here to find a partner, so you have to make good arrangements for me."

Bai Youyou was stunned when she heard this and looked at Lin Xiaolin, who was blushing. "Xiaolin, you really came here specifically to find a partner."

Lin Xiaolin blushed and said, feeling a little embarrassed, "No, I just wanted to come see you and find a partner while I was there."

Bai Youyou looked at her like that and thought for a moment, "Xiao Lin, I will definitely help you find a blind date, but in such a short time, can you two get along well?"

Lin Xiaolin said confidently, "Youyou, don't worry. As long as the feeling is right, we can decide for life at first sight.

And I believe that soldiers are all good people. Even if we can't become lovers, being friends is fine."

Bai Youyou nodded helplessly.

"Okay, as long as you're happy, but I still want to say that it's better to think twice before you act on matters of the heart. Don't assume that all soldiers are good people."

Lin Xiaolin looked at Bai Youyou who was worried about her and burst out laughing.

"Okay, okay, I know. I won't joke about my lifelong happiness. You have to believe me, and you also have to believe in your own judgment.

Look at the husband you found for yourself, isn't he very good?" After saying this, she glanced meaningfully at Sheng Zeyan who was walking with Bai Wei in front of her.

Bai Youyou followed her gaze towards Sheng Zeyan and nodded, "Indeed, it seems my vision is quite good."

Looking at Bai Youyou with a confident look on her face, Lin Xiaolin smiled in her heart.

She also secretly thought, "The person Youyou finds for her will definitely not be wrong, because Youyou has a system that knows everything, so how could it be wrong?"

After they arrived home, Lin Xiaolin looked around curiously and said to Bai Youyou, "Youyou, your home is so cozy. It feels very safe here. There are soldiers guarding every corner."

"It's quite safe. Okay, stop looking. Come and sit down and rest for a while. I'll take you around later so you can see enough." As he said that, he brought Lin Xiaolin, who was still wandering in the yard, back to the house.

Everyone in the room sat together and chatted, and the topic naturally revolved around the happy event of the eldest sister-in-law's pregnancy.

Bai Wei said proudly: "Our eldest brother must be a good father in the future. You didn't see it, little sister, when he found out that his eldest sister-in-law was pregnant, he looked so stupid. It was so funny.

Grandma and my parents were also overjoyed. Now our sister-in-law is like a porcelain doll, untouchable.”

"Of course they will be happy. After all, this is the first grandson in our family. How can grandma and my parents not be nervous?" Bai Youyou also said happily.

Bai Wei thought about it and said, "Yeah, I'm also looking forward to having a little nephew or niece.

Well, actually I still prefer a soft and sweet little niece. It would be great if I had a little niece as cute as you were when you were a child."

Thinking of this, Bai Wei was very much looking forward to it.

At this time, Zhang Ru brought out the snacks that had been prepared long ago for everyone to eat and chat. Everyone ate happily. Sheng Zeyan looked at the lively scene and was filled with emotion.

However, amidst the laughter and joy, there was suddenly a noise outside.

When Sheng Zeyan opened the door, he found that it was the naughty children from the neighbor's house who accidentally started a small flame while playing with fire and burned the firewood that was drying outside their house.

After seeing this, Sheng Zeyan quickly organized everyone to help put out the fire. Fortunately, the fire was not big and was extinguished soon.

Back in the house, Bai Wei looked at the naughty children being beaten by their parents and sighed, "Ah, little girls are still the best! Look at those two brothers, they did something wrong and were beaten by their father, but they still acted like they were doing nothing wrong. They look like they deserve to be punished."

Everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing what Bai Wei said.

At this moment, Lin Xiaolin suddenly spoke up: "Actually, it's quite interesting for boys to be a little naughty. If they are educated properly, they will become very responsible when they grow up."

Bai Wei raised his eyebrows. "Xiao Lin, your idea is quite unique. But if you have a child, do you hope it will be a boy or a girl?"

Lin Xiaolin's face suddenly turned red, and she said angrily: "Bai Wei, what are you talking about? I don't even have a partner now, where did the child come from?" Everyone laughed again.

Lin Xiaolin's face turned red from laughing.

It was Zhang Ru who came out of the kitchen who rescued her. "Okay, okay, since there's nothing to do outside, just sit down and eat."

When Lin Xiaolin heard Zhang Ru calling for food again, she wailed, "Aunt Zhang, please eat more! You've already given us a lot of food. I really can't eat any more."

Zhang Ru looked at her whimpering and laughed, "Silly girl, what I just gave you was just a snack, you know, what you need to eat now is the main meal."

Lin Xiaolin widened her eyes, "Ah? There's a main course. Aunt Zhang, you're so enthusiastic, but I really can't eat anymore." Seeing her holding her stomach in pain, everyone laughed again.

During the meal, everyone continued to chat happily.

Bai Wei spoke carefully to Bai Youyou about the changes in his hometown in the past month or two, and said that their factory had introduced a new batch of equipment, which was expected to greatly increase production.

Lin Xiaolin shared interesting stories with her colleagues in the factory.

After dinner, Bai Youyou took Lin Xiaolin to visit all the places the troops could go to and the family area.

When they arrived at a training ground, Lin Xiaolin looked at the soldiers on the training ground curiously, her eyes shining.

Suddenly, she pointed at a young warrior who was doing difficult moves on the horizontal bar and said, "Youyou, that guy looks amazing. Do you know him?"

Bai Youyou looked in the direction of her finger, shook his head and said, "I don't know him. But there are so many outstanding young men in our military region. Even though I don't know him, Sheng Zeyan should know him."

"Ah! I'm so excited! Youyou, watching them train makes me so excited." Lin Xiaolin excitedly grabbed Bai Youyou's hand.

"Okay, okay, don't get excited. I will find a good partner for you." Bai Youyou comforted her.

"Yeah! I know."

In the evening, the setting sun shines on the military compound.

Bai Youyou pulled Lin Xiaolin to sit on a bench in the family compound. Lin Xiaolin leaned on Bai Youyou's shoulder and said softly, "Youyou, I'm so happy today. Even if I can't find a partner, this trip is worth it."

Bai Youyou patted her hand and said, "Don't be so discouraging. We still have a long way to go. Xiaolin, tell me the truth. Do your parents want you to get married?"

Lin Xiaolin smiled calmly, "I really can't hide anything from you!

Well, my parents found a partner for me, but I didn’t like him, but my parents forced me to marry him.

So, I came to you.

Seriously, Youyou, even though I'm anxious to find a partner, I don't necessarily want you to find one for me in the army, so don't feel pressured."

Bai Youyou glanced at her and said, "What are you talking about? Don't worry! I will definitely find you someone who suits your taste."

The two smiled at each other, enjoying this warm and comfortable time.
