Chapter 125: The Third Brother Falls in Battle
e them away quickly."Yesterday I had something to attend to, thank you all for your patience. Today I'm updating five chapters, first one now, and will continue later.First published on the Chinese No...On the first night Fu Jiu Jiu slept by herself, she was fine, but she kept her parents up all night.
Fu Baiman fell asleep, but then suddenly woke up as if possessed.
Tian Guihua thought he was dreaming, but upon asking, she realized that the old man couldn't bear to let his little daughter sleep alone and had come to check if she was covered with a blanket.
"I just went there."
"What if someone kicks the quilt now" Fu Baimian ignored her, got out of bed and put on his shoes, then went to the little girl's room quietly.
After returning, he boasted, "I told you so! The little girl kicked her blanket to the floor. It's lucky I went and brought it back, otherwise she would have caught a cold."
"You old geezer, don't you see what time it is It's scorching hot out here. What do you need to cool down for Just protect your stomach."
"Oh, then I still have to take the blanket off."
Tian Guihua can't help but laugh and cry. The old guy is too nervous.
I regret having a daughter. If I had two daughters, my old bones would be completely worn out.
Now the Fu family is not worried about food or clothing, life goes from better to better each day. Just strawberries alone have brought in over a hundred taels of income.
This is something they never dared to dream of before. While watermelon may not be as valuable as strawberries, it still brings in dozens of silver taels in revenue.
Grandchildren gathered around, life was peaceful and tranquil.
But a list of casualties shattered the Fu family's peace.
Early in the morning, Fu Baiman prepared to go out and see how the crops in his fields were doing. As soon as he reached the front door, Liang Dacheng hurried over.
Fu Baiman saw his serious expression and thought to himself, "Something must have happened." He asked, "Da Cheng, what's wrong"
Liang Dacheng looked at him, not knowing how to begin, but it was something that had to be said, “A million! I told you, you have to hold on!”
Tian Guihua was sitting in the courtyard combing her little daughter's hair when suddenly, the wooden comb in her hand fell to the ground. She picked up her daughter and ran outside.
"Big Brother, did our three treasures give us any news"
Although she had a bad feeling, she still held onto a sliver of hope, "Have you heard anything from your nephew"
Liang Dacheng took a deep breath, “He was injured and came back.”
"Oh, it's good to be alive."
No matter whose child it is, Fu Baiman hopes everything is alright.
“He’s fine, just needs some rest. At worst, his legs are a little weak, but... well... I'll just be straight with you. Your Sanjin... is gone.”
Fu Baiman and Tian Guihua were stunned, especially Tian Guihua who struggled to keep her trembling body steady before placing her young daughter on the ground.
"Big Cheng, this...this can't be a joke!" Fu Baiwan said, his voice trembling.
Liang Dacheng couldn't hold it in any longer, wiping away tears. "Yonggui said that your family's three golds ambushed some people and were completely wiped out. He...he barely escaped death and came back. This... can't be false."
"Sanjin, such a good child, it's truly a pity."
Has something happened to your older brother
Fujujiao hurried to ask Jijiji and Zhazha, weren't their friends going with Sān Gē's team
If the third brother gets into trouble, there should be news, right
But both JiJi and ZhaZha said they didn't receive the letter.
That means Third Brother is still alive.
Fu Jiujiao looked at her parents' sadness and quickly went to comfort them, saying in a milky voice: "Daddy don't cry, Mommy don't cry, Third Brother is still alive."
"Chirp chirp, your uncle also hopes your third brother is fine, but... this is the truth. My nephew is honest and straightforward, he wouldn't lie. It won't be long... there will be a list of soldiers killed in the county."
Tian Guihua's heart ached terribly at this moment. She knelt on the ground, hugging the little dumpling, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Liang Dacheng patted Fu Baiman on the shoulder. "Baiman, hold on! It's a pity that all three of us haven't married wives yet, let alone have children."
Fu Jiujiu knows Liang Dacheng has good intentions, but now is not the time to say these things. Besides, she firmly believes her third brother is fine, although she doesn't know what problems you encountered in the process.
"Uncle, my third brother is definitely fine."
Liang Dacheng smiled wryly and shook his head.
Fu Jiujiu no longer argued with him, stretching out her chubby little hand and gently wiping away her mother's tears. She said solemnly, "Mother, the third brother is really fine."
Fu Baiman clenched his fists and touched his face. "That's right, Jiujiao said, before the list comes out, we can't say that the three of us are out of the running."
Liang Dacheng thought this was just the two of them deceiving themselves. His nephew wouldn't lie to him.
"Sigh... you guys still need to be mentally prepared."
What to prepare
Fu Jiujiu tilted her head, "Uncle, did your nephew see my third brother die with his own eyes"
Liang Dacheng thought for a moment, “Oh, no, there isn’t. But your third brother’s squad was surrounded and fell into the enemy’s trap. There are only three or fifty people, how can they fight against hundreds They have no hope of survival.”
"Uncle, you can't just talk about my third brother's death without having seen it with your own eyes."
Fu Baiman and Tian Guihua had calmed down a bit. They also felt that the little girl was right; they hadn't seen the body, had they
Suddenly, a glimmer of hope grew stronger in my heart.
Liang Dacheng felt a little awkward as he realized a family of three were staring at him. "Why are you looking at me like that I don't mean anything bad, I... Of course, I hope Sanjin is okay. If Sanjin can survive, I'll slaughter a pig to celebrate."
He didn't mean any harm, as everyone knows, and the three of them don't blame him.
This matter isn't settled yet, but somehow, the news of Fu Sanjin's death in battle spread throughout the village.
Neighbors came to offer condolences to the elderly couple, making the atmosphere quite awkward.
Some people even suggested that Fu Sanjin should be given a wife and an adopted son to carry on his family line.
This is utterly absurd.
If a person really died, what would the wife and son do
Everyone was just talking, but someone actually showed up and said they wanted to be his older brother's widow.
This is... beyond the pale.
The wails outside the door were so loud that even the neighbors who came inside to comfort Mr. and Mrs. Fu went out to have a look.
"Sanjin, you said you would marry me before you left. I've been waiting for you to come back. Even if you become a ghost, I will marry you." Fan Sanmei wore mourning clothes and cried so heartbreakingly, it was truly as if she had died with her husband.
Before, there were rumors spreading in the village about Fan Sanmei and Fu Sijin. However, they were denied in the end. But now, Fan Sanmei is wearing mourning clothes and crying again, making people confused.
While others don't understand, Tian Guihua is clear.
When she was unaware of this, the fact that Fan Sanmei's belly had been enlarged by someone else had long been common knowledge. No one was willing to marry her, and in two years, not even a matchmaker came forward.
She had already thought about taking down all three titles before. She's not giving up yet.
Even human blood buns have to be eaten after one bite, how heartless and despicable! It's outrageous.
"Father, mother, no matter if Sanjin lives or dies, I will be her daughter-in-law."
"Bah!" Fu Jiujiao pinched her waist, glaring at her menacingly, "You're the one who died! My third brother is fine, what do you mean by cursing her"
