[QTC] MBDT Chapter 170

TGIF!!! ๑(◕‿◕)๑

 

His hand was pressed against the woman’s photo. There was an indelible pain deep in his eyes.

“Yutang, you ask me, what did the hero of the movie say to the heroine in the end?”

“Now, I know.”

“I love you.”

***

In the winter of 1992, China’s youngest Major General Xiao died heroically during a mission to protect his teammates from evacuating.

That day, the sky was gray.

A year later, the man who once stood in front of the tomb is now lying next to her, living next to her.

In front of the tombs of the two people, a crowd of people stood, all with solemn expressions. The people standing in the front row stood upright and were wearing military uniforms.

“Salute.”

Everyone bowed respectfully to the photo of a stern man on the tombstone.

This is a major general who deserves everyone’s respect. He sacrificed his own life to protect his home and country. He already fulfilled his duties.

One person after another passed by his grave, with grief on everyone’s face.

He dedicated the first half of his life to his motherland and spent the second half of his life always by his beloved’s side.

The next day, Wang Ermazi obediently delivered five taels of silver.

Last time, she sold the recipes for five taels of silver. After excluding the money spent, she still has more than four taels of silver left. Now with the five taels of silver, she doesn’t have to worry about money for a while.

There was still a lot of food bought last time, and there was no need to buy more. Bei Yutang did not need to go to the market to buy anymore.

Bei Yutang did not know how long she would have to fall asleep before she thought about it this time. She was worried about Xiao Zimo and gave him detailed instructions again. She also hid the money properly so that it would not be stolen easily.

Xiao Zimo listened to Bei Yutang’s instructions, blinked his dark eyes, and asked timidly: “Mother, are you going to travel far away?”

Bei Yutang touched the little guy’s little head lovingly, “Mother is just too tired and wants to sleep for a few days. When I wake up, Mother will wake up by herself.”

Xiao Zimo thought that his mother was still recovering from her last illness, so he asked nervously and concernedly: “Mother, does your head still hurt? How about we ask the doctor to take a look?”

The little guy spoke cautiously, fearing that if he said anything wrong, he would be beaten severely.

Bei Yutang knew that he had misunderstood, but she did not explain it. It was good that he thought so. Otherwise, it would be really weird to have to fall asleep for several days every time.

“It’s okay, Mother can just go to bed.”

“Mother, you rest, I’ll cook.” Xiao Zimo said obediently.

“No need. I’ll cook today’s meal. Mo’er, just help Mother light the fire.”

Xiao Zimo hesitated to speak. He worried about her in his heart, but he had been abused for a long time, so he did not dare to say a word against Mu Zhitao’s words.

When Xiao Zimo saw his mother chopping vegetables, his eyes widened. His round eyes stared straight at the pair of fast knives.

When did his mother’s craftsmanship become so good?

Although he did not see her cooking a few times a year, the rice she cooked last time was tastier than what she cooked before, it was often burnt. Not only was it not burnt today, it was actually extremely good.

The fragrant aroma wafts out from the pot, making people’s index fingers move.

The little guy was stunned, blinking his dark and bright eyes.

“It’s time to eat.”

There are three dishes and one soup, two of which are meat dishes. It was just when Xiao Zimo was growing tall that he had to keep up with nutrition. In the past, there was no oil or water when eating, but now it is natural to take a good supplement.

Bei Yutang put most of the meat dishes into the little guy’s bowl. Xiao Zimo looked at the meat piled high and wanted to take it away, but when Bei Yutang’s eyes met his, he did not dare to speak.
