A week ago, An's wife was whispering in his ear, asking him to think of a way to send An Chen to serve as a soldier.
But Antai knew very well that their family's composition was not particularly good, and it was indeed difficult to send their son to serve as a soldier.
Therefore, he kept putting it off, thinking of discussing it with his son so that An Chen could study at home with peace of mind.
But after last night's scene, his attitude was shaken.
We can no longer let this go.
If he continues to let it go, this guy will have his house ransacked without being able to save everything.
In recent years, the Antai family has been in a bad situation. The house they originally lived in was taken away a few years ago.
The family now lives in Tongzilou.
Although the Tongzi Building is not bad, there is no harm without comparison. I am used to living in a large compound, and suddenly moving to the narrow Tongzi Building is always a bit uncomfortable.
However, considering the current environment, they have to adapt to life in Tongzilou.
"Being a soldier, being a soldier is good."
An Xin also agreed with An Tai's proposal. Being a soldier is indeed a good way out, and the military camp is particularly good at training people.
After going there, An Chen couldn't do anything extraordinary even though he was restless.
Discipline will teach him how to behave.
But An Xin also knows how difficult it is to be a soldier.
"But, brother, I have to discuss this matter with Ouyang first."
"It should, it should."
An Tai nodded repeatedly. There was a difference between familiarity and distance. After all, Ouyang's surname was not An, and he knew in his heart that Ouyang's impression of him was not particularly good.
"Brother, how about, you see, Ouyang has been busy recently and hasn't been back for several days. I'll tell him when he comes home someday?"
In order to prevent the elder brother from misunderstanding, An Xin explained after finishing speaking.
"Brother, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying this to shirk. This is indeed a matter. Didn't you find out when you came in today?"
"The control at the door is much stricter than in the past."
"It's okay, there's no rush in this matter."
Having said this, An Tai didn't want to say anything more. He knew An Xin, and what his sister said should be the truth, not an excuse.
…
…
…
In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.
"You said it's been half a month, but why is there no news from your sister?"
In the kitchen, An's wife asked her husband beside her while choosing vegetables.
"What's the news?"
An Tai picked up the spatula, turned down the heat on the stove, and then turned to look at his wife.
"Didn't I tell you the day before yesterday that Ouyang has been very busy recently and has never been home."
An's wife muttered in a low voice: "I'm not home, I'm not home, I'm not home, can't I ask on the phone?"
The kitchen space is very small. One of the two cooks and the other washes the dishes. They are almost next to each other. Even if An's wife murmurs in a low voice, it does not escape An Tai's ears.
Hearing his wife's complaints, An Tai couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart and sighed.
"It's not like you don't know what our family is like. It's not that easy to send Chenchen to join the army."
"Besides, after all, Ouyang is not from the An family. He is just An Xin's husband. If they don't help, we have nothing to say."
An's wife also sighed when she heard this.
Recently, the couple has been worried about their son.
Junior general?
Is it that easy to be a young general?
Can anyone be a part of it?
With An Chen's status, he is at most a peripheral member. Even so, this kid is still busy all day long.
Both of them are smart people, how could they give birth to such a stupid child?
An Chen ran out every day, which made An's wife's heart twitch. She was worried that her stupid son might one day become a target of the revolution.
Looking at his wife's sad face, An Tai turned slightly sideways and patted her back gently.
"Don't worry, An Xin told me that this matter is actually not difficult. It's just that Ouyang has been too busy recently and hasn't gone back."
"well."
An's wife glanced out the window with a complicated expression. She and An Xin were just sisters-in-law, with a layer between them. She would not be as optimistic as her husband.
Some things become obsolete as time goes by.
Who knows what An Xin is thinking?
Island City Research Institute.
An Xin did not lie. Li Jie did not go home for the past half month. Sometimes, he even had no time to make routine phone calls every day.
It only took a few minutes to make a phone call. When An Xin saw that her husband couldn't spare even this little time, she immediately understood how busy her husband was.
In fact, sending An Chen off to serve as a soldier is not a difficult matter.
An Xin knew that as long as her husband asked, it would definitely be done, and if she mentioned it, her husband would probably not refuse.
However, her husband is as busy as he is now, so how can she have the time to mention these things to 'Ouyang'.
'I don't know if Ouyang has been eating well recently.'
'Ouyang' has always been a person who attaches great importance to his family. If he can't even spare time to make phone calls, he will probably just eat a few casual meals.
Just when An Xin was thinking wildly, there was a sudden explosion in his ears.
"dad!"
This sentence seemed to turn on a certain switch, and then voices calling "Dad" rang out one after another in the room.
Turning around, I saw all four children gathered around Ouyang, especially the two younger ones, with their arms raised high, vying to get into Ouyang's arms.
Afterwards, An Xin quickly got up and ran over.
"I'm back."
Seeing the joy in An Xin's eyes, Li Jie smiled slightly.
"I'm sorry, we are too busy during this period and have ignored you."
An Xin smiled softly, shook her head and said, "I'm fine, my career is more important."
"Dad, give me a hug!"
The younger son raised his head and kept shouting.
"Dad, I want it too."
Seeing her brother asking for a hug, my little daughter also shouted along with him.
Li Jie laughed, picked up the two little ones one on the left and one on the right, and then looked at An Xin.
"If nothing else happens, I won't be as busy as I was some time ago."
"By the way, let me tell you another good news. I have ten days off. How about we go out and have fun together?"
"Where to go?"
After pondering for a moment, Li Jie suggested: "How about going to Songshan Island? Take a look at Lao Jiang and An Jie, and by the way, you can also go to Xiaoheishan Island for a walk."
"OK!"
Upon hearing this proposal, An Xin immediately agreed. Speaking of which, the last time she met her sister was four years ago.
We meet once every four years, but the frequency is not as high as when ‘Ouyang’ was still Lao You.
Suddenly, An Xin remembered her nephew.
"By the way, there's something I want you to do for me."
"What's up?"
An Xin briefly explained the cause and effect of the incident, and then asked.
"Can this be done?"
"able."
Based on Li Jie's achievements, sending someone to serve as a soldier is just a matter of words.
"I'll make a call later. Once I've confirmed my whereabouts, you can call and tell your brother."
