A stunning beauty arrived on the island; she invented everything from childcare to babysitting.

The county town guesthouse.

After thinking it over and over, Song Wenying still felt it wouldn't work.

She came here to get rid of the pregnancy. Her mother got money from her second brother, so what does that have to do with her?

Once she gets back, her fake pregnancy will be discovered sooner or later, and she'll be the only one who suffers, while her do-nothing older brother will reap the benefits.

How can such a good thing happen?

Just then, a sharp pain shot through his waist, followed by Ma Cuihua's scolding: "Go to sleep if you're going to sleep, why are you twisting around like that?"

They spent several days on the train, eating steamed buns and pickled vegetables. When they reached the other side, they didn't go to a guesthouse to save money. Instead, they found a windless spot and slept on the concrete floor for one night. The next morning, they boarded a boat to the island.

Upon arriving at the island, they didn't rest but went straight to the entrance of the military base and waited for a long time before Song Wenyuan took them to the guesthouse.

Although the guesthouse room was small, it at least had a large bed that could sleep two people. Ma Cuihua originally planned to rest for a while and go to the army later, but she had only dozed off for a short time when her daughter started tossing and turning, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.

Song Wenying behaved herself for a while, but soon couldn't help but start moving again.

"Can we go to sleep now?"

Ma Cuihua was already unhappy about being kicked out by her own son, and now that she was so sleepy and her daughter was still moving around beside her, she became even more irritable, and her voice became much louder.

“Mom…” Song Wenying began.

"what?"

"Do you think Second Brother brought us here as a delaying tactic? What if he refuses to pay us after we go back?"

"He dares!"

"But he also said that if we want him to pay us, we have to give us receipts. Where are we going to find receipts?"

This really got Ma Cuihua hooked.

Yes, where are they going to find the receipts?

The old man's fall during the Chinese New Year was a bit serious, but the hospital visit only cost about ten yuan, and then he went home to recuperate.

Even if you get some nutritional supplements, you still can't get a receipt for over a thousand dollars!

Forget about thousands of yuan, there aren't even any costing a few hundred yuan.

"Let's go find him!"

Ma Cuihua suddenly sat up.

She was about to get up, but then she remembered Song Wenyuan's words and pulled her foot back from the bed: "No, what if we get arrested?"

"That must be my second brother lying to us. We didn't do anything, why would the army arrest us?"

"What if it's true?"

"Besides, Second Brother said we'd get arrested if we went into the family quarters. Can't we just wait for him to come out?"

"What if he doesn't want to?"

“If he doesn’t want to, then sue him for being unfilial,” Song Wenying said through gritted teeth. “The army values ​​these things the most. How can the country dare to employ a soldier who is not even filial to his parents? At worst, we can go home together.”

As Song Wenying spoke, she repented in her heart: Second brother, please don't blame your sister for being heartless. You've abandoned your family for an outsider. I had no choice in the matter.

Over the years, she has saved up more than a thousand yuan with a monthly income of thirty or forty yuan. Song Wenyuan has been a soldier for so many years and is now an official. Even if he sends money home, he only sends ten yuan. How could he not come up with a thousand yuan?

Maybe he's already a millionaire, he just hasn't told his family.

Rather than letting two outsiders benefit from it, we should find a way to get Mom to get some money for everyone to spend.

Moreover, if her second brother were to give the family so much money, Shen Anning would definitely find out.

As long as Shen Anning comes out, she can frame her for the miscarriage. Then she can generously say that she doesn't care and just asks for money, and that will be the end of it, right?

Thinking of this, the trace of guilt in Song Wenying's heart disappeared.

However, Ma Cuihua was not stupid. This was the only promising child in their family, and everyone was counting on him. Even if he was temporarily bewitched by a vixen, he couldn't possibly cut off contact with his family forever.

She can still tell the difference between receiving a lump sum of money now and receiving money periodically.

She was also thinking of sending her eldest child to the army when he grew up, so that his second uncle could take care of him and she wouldn't have to worry about the future.

Therefore, it's acceptable to use this as a threat.

But actually reporting it won't work.

But she couldn't just tell her daughter that directly.

She had raised this daughter since she was a baby, and she could see right through her thoughts and intentions.

Although she didn't say it, she knew that her companion had her own purpose in coming to the island; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so kind.

However, this is, after all, her daughter, and this is what she resembles most about her, so she is willing to tolerate her daughter's little thoughts, but she cannot let them affect the future of the whole family.

"You know the second brother's personality. He's the type who responds better to gentleness than force. If we threaten him with this, I'm afraid he'd rather retire than give us the money. And he'll probably side with those two bastards even more in the future. We need to think this through carefully."

Song Wenying didn't care who she sided with; she was already married and wouldn't be living at home anymore. As long as she achieved her goal, that was all that mattered.

But Ma Cuihua has already said that, if she insists, her mother will definitely become suspicious.

She said reluctantly, "So we're just going to do nothing? That Shen Anning must have said bad things about us to Second Brother, otherwise he wouldn't have reacted like this. Second Brother used to be so filial, sending ten yuan home out of his monthly allowance of ten-odd yuan. Now he's a battalion commander, earning several tens of yuan a month, and he still sends ten yuan home. No, he doesn't send a single penny anymore. Mom, we can't let him go on like this. If this continues, he won't even acknowledge you and Dad anymore."

Song Wenying's words really struck a chord with Ma Cuihua, as this was exactly what she was worried about.

"Don't rush. Didn't your second brother say he'd take us back tomorrow? Let's wait for him to come. It's true your dad fell, and we've already spent money on his medical bills. What we say then is up to us. Go to sleep first. We finally have a place to rest. If you don't want to sleep, go for a walk by yourself, but don't bother me."

As she spoke, Ma Cuihua closed her eyes.

She needs to conserve her energy and think carefully about what to do when her son comes tomorrow.

On the other side, Anning and her family of three had already finished their dinner.

Normally, Song Wenyuan would be back in his dormitory by this time, but today the father and daughter had just reunited, and Shen Changle was really reluctant to let her father, whom she had lost and found again, leave. She held his hand and didn't want him to go.

Song Wenyuan certainly wanted to stay, but his wife's eyes were too cold, colder than the most ruthless spy he had ever arrested.

He had no doubt that if he stayed at his daughter's behest, he would not be able to see the sun rise the next day.

Ultimately, with great reluctance, he still said goodbye.

Before leaving, he whispered in Anning's ear, "I'll ask the regimental commander for leave tomorrow to see my mom and sister off. If all goes well, I'll probably be back in the evening, so I won't be coming. Please tell Chang Le for me then."

Anning rolled her eyes: "Go tell her yourself."

"Anning, Comrade Anning, wife~~~" Song Wenyuan raised his voice.

He learned this from the characters in the movie.

An Ning got goosebumps from being called that, and pushed the person outside: "Get out of here, don't come back if you can't solve it!"

return?

Song Wenyuan caught the key word and immediately grinned foolishly.

"I'll come back, I'll definitely come back! Now I'm leaving!"
