Chapter 3617 Xiao An’s Brainstorm
However, Mrs. Sun was still worried and insisted on watching.
Xiao An was at a loss and turned to Yang Ruoqing for help.
Yang Ruoqing also looked dumbfounded. She came over, helped Sun aside and said, "Mom, since Xiao An said no, then there must be no."
"You Think about it, if it really happened, it would have happened before. Now, as long as Xiao An is sitting in front of us, wouldn’t it be fine?”
"But..." Sun wanted to argue, but was interrupted again by Yang Ruoqing.
"Mom, our little An is no longer the tough-headed little kid we used to be. We can even have fun in the yard with our buttocks naked." She continued.
"Xiao An is now a big boy. He is a soldier, protecting his family and country!"
"He has grown up. You, please don't do it in front of us. It’s hard for him!”
It was the last sentence that moved Sun.
Mrs. Sun glanced at her sturdy little son. Sitting there, he was really an adult. His facial features, temperament, and body, not to mention, he really looked like his father's third son!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Sun's eyes were full of joy and satisfaction. She raised her hand and gently held Xiao An's shoulders, "Okay, mother, don't look at it. My Xiao An has grown up now. He is alone in the military camp. Take good care of yourself and don’t let your parents worry!”
Xiao An nodded and glanced around. "Sister, where is Chen'er? I want to see him!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "Chen'er went to Yingtian Academy to take the exam. Your brother-in-law went to the Second Prince's Mansion and had no time to accompany her. Your brother accompanied him to the exam. I’m going.”
“I’ll take one exam in the morning and one exam in the afternoon. I won’t be back until the evening.”
Xiao An nodded: "It seems that my nephew, like my brother, is born to be a good student."
Yang Ruoqing smiled.
Xiao Hua said: "Xiao An, you are wrong about this. You haven't seen it yet, Chen'er. This kid is both civilized and martial, he is good at reading, and he has solid boxing and kicking skills."
Xiaoduo also rushed to say: "Yes, yes, we stay in bed every morning and can't get up, but no matter it's windy or rainy, Chen'er They would all get up on time and walk around in the backyard, doing a set of boxing and kicking skills before coming over to wash their faces and have breakfast, all the time!” He is really different from other children. He is not yet eight years old, but he understands everything, just like a little adult.”
Hearing this, the appearance of an old-fashioned child suddenly appeared in Xiao An's eyes.
Then he pictured the way he walked, his little arms covered with muscles. Thinking of this, Xiao An couldn't help but laugh.
"I want to see my nephew more and more." He said.
Yang Ruoqing glanced at Xiao An and could tell at a glance what Xiao An was thinking about. She couldn't help but poke Xiao An's forehead lightly.
"You brat, what are you thinking about? With the looks of your elder sister and your brother-in-law, your nephew can't be a freak," she said.
"When you see me later in the evening, you will know whether I am bragging, sister!"
A room full of women is surrounding Xiao An. You also serve him food, and she also serves him food. This is a meal. It was lunch, and Xiao An enjoyed the feeling of dining like an emperor.
After dinner, Mrs. Sun took Xiao An's hand and said, "Xiao An, are you sleepy? If you are, go back to the house and take a nap."
Xiao An shook his head, "Mom , My son doesn’t have the habit of taking a nap, and he wants to chat with his mother.”
Ms. Sun nodded repeatedly, “Okay, okay, my mother is eager to do so.”
Yang Ruoqing had the habit of taking a nap, but her beloved little brother rarely came to visit relatives. She made strong tea to refresh herself, and also came over to the house to accompany her mother and talk to her brother. After being separated for a year, we both have a backlog of words that we want to tell each other.
Especially when Mrs. Sun recalled the scene when Xiao An made the impromptu decision to join the army, the woman couldn't help but shed tears again.
That experience, that day and night went by for many days in a row. Whether I was awake or asleep, I was thinking about my little son over and over again. It was really a heart-wrenching time!
Especially every time I wash clothes in the pond at the entrance of the village, I hear gossip from other women who don’t know where they came from,
When she talked about how brutal the war in the southwest was and how many soldiers died, Mrs. Sun started to tremble all over.
I wanted to listen, but I didn’t dare to. Fortunately, I had a daughter by my side who comforted me from time to time, so I managed to survive.
"Xiao An, you can come back safely, it is really the blessing of Bodhisattva!" Sun said.
"Now that the war in the southwest is over, your sister and your brother-in-law are waiting for Chen'er's exam results to come out, and they are going back to the village."
"Since your brother-in-law has a long life, A period of vacation, what about you? Can you also take a period of rest?" asked Sun Shi.
Xiao An glanced at Sun, then at Yang Ruoqing, then lowered his eyes, with a somewhat troubled look on his face.
Yang Ruoqing knows this look best, because she often saw it on Luo Fengtang's face before.
This is the embarrassment and shame of a man as a soldier when a big country and a small family cannot take care of both.
But Sun didn’t understand.
"What's wrong, Xiao An? Why don't you say anything? Mom is asking you something!" Ms. Sun pushed Xiao An gently and asked.
"The war has subsided. You should take leave and go home to have a good rest. Otherwise, let your brother-in-law think of a way to give it to you in our hometown."
"It's best to be in Wanghai County." How about arranging an errand for you?"
"Arranging an errand?" Xiao An looked up and looked at Sun in surprise.
Sun nodded repeatedly, "Yes, arrange an errand. Didn't you want to take the martial arts exam before? Now you went to the southwest battlefield and made meritorious service."
"With that With this military merit, it would be great for you to go back to Wanghai County and find a job in the Yamen, as a catcher or something like that!" Mrs. Sun said again.
However, Xiao An shook his head and refused without hesitation.
"Mother, my son understands your hard work, but please forgive your son for being unfilial and unable to fulfill mother's hard work." Xiao An said straight to the point, leaving Sun no illusions at all.
Sun was dumbfounded and froze on the spot for a moment.
Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing glared at Xiao An: "You should speak more leisurely, you are still the same straightforward character, and you don't care whether my mother can accept it for a while!"
Hearing Yang Ruoqing The scolding made Xiao An feel guilty.
His eyes flickered, he stood up and squatted in front of Sun, holding Sun's slightly cold hand with both hands.
"Mom, I admit it, I really wanted to be a martial arts champion in the past, and in the future I would find a job at home, as a yamen servant, a police officer, anything." He said patiently, word for word. .
“However, my son went to the southwest and went to the battlefield. After experiencing some bloody storms, my son’s mind changed.”
“Son, then you become What's going on? Don't scare me!" asked Sun with a worried look.
