The major drug bust in City Z had severe lingering effects, but Song Yuanhuan, who led the mission, reaped significant benefits. After returning to the Imperial Capital Military District, he would no longer assu dangerous tasks. Moreover, having not been promoted for a long ti, he was promoted from Lieutenant Colonel to Major General after this mission, skipping the rank of Colonel entirely. It’s undeniable that all risks are linked to potential gains and power. This ti, Song Yuanhuan was on the mission for nearly twenty days, exhaustingly busy, but his efforts paid off handsoly.
"I’m only one step away from becoming a General, and within my lifeti, I promise to make you a General’s Wife," Song Yuanhuan whispered gently into Xu Xiuxiu’s ear, his confession filled with emotion, in the deep of the night.
Xu Xiuxiu did not know how romantic or deep others’ love was, but facing Song Yuanhuan, who wholeheartedly wanted to make her a General’s Wife, her heart always fluttered uncontrollably. She felt that eting Song Yuanhuan was probably the sum total of all her luck in life, and she was grateful yet content.
"Song Yuanhuan, being able to snuggle with you in this deep night, to be wilful and spoiled in your arms, I no longer ask for anything more." To have t him was already a stroke of luck, to have traveled back in ti from the 2020s to the 1980s to live, turning from an unmarried woman to having a loving man and a miraculous space of her own, and with his affection, all of this was already enough.
One shouldn’t be too greedy. She had already received enough. Aiming for too much perfection in life is, after all, flawed since everyone’s life has its regrets. Her regret was not having t Song Yuanhuan earlier, but it was good enough that she managed to et him at all.
"Mhm!" Song Yuanhuan agreed, wrapping his arm around her slender waist and kissing her forehead. "In the next life, I will definitely et you earlier."
"Really? We’re still together in this life, aren’t you tired of it? Facing the sa face every day?" Xu Xiuxiu teased Song Yuanhuan with a smile.
"How could I ever tire!" Song Yuanhuan shook his head affirmatively, his eyes sparkling in the darkness: "As long as you don’t find too cold, too ungentle, I will never tire of you, but treasure you, holding you dear."
"Good! Then let’s make a pact, to be together in the next life too. You must rember , the I am now, got that?" Xu Xiuxiu held Song Yuanhuan’s face with both hands, her expression resolute and even carrying a double entendre.
Actually, having been together for so long in this marriage, Xu Xiuxiu felt there shouldn’t be any secrets, yet, she still lacked the courage to confess her true identity to Song Yuanhuan. Sotis she felt like an usurper, secretly enjoying the happiness that should have belonged to the original woman. Thus, although she knew that Song Yuanhuan had so suspicions, Xu Xiuxiu still dared not speak the truth, thinking that perhaps she would never tell him in this lifeti, and Song Yuanhuan might never ask, but one pretending ignorance and the other feigning cluelessness seed to be the best way to sustain their life together, for sotis too much honesty was also a test for marriage and love.
Viewing the soul through appearances is too profound, Xu Xiuxiu thought, better to leave so room for love, as both marriage and love rarely withstand ethereal tests.
...
Song Yuanhuan had been promoted to Major General and his work seed to be busier than ever. Xu Xiuxiu couldn’t think of what could possibly be keeping him so busy, yet he was always bustling from dawn to dusk, to the extent that Xu Xiuxiu felt like she was spinning in circles. Despite this, he still tried hard to make ti for her.
Ti flew quickly, and before they knew it, sumr had turned into winter. During the snowy season, Xu Xiuxiu’s family set off for their ho again. This ti, the New Year was particularly lively because Song Yuanming, the youngest of the Song Family, also brought his wife, Song Qian, back to et his parents, and Wei Dafang was heavily pregnant, ready to give birth. It was indeed a double celebration for the Song Family.
"Sister-in-law, Qianqian is still young and sotis she doesn’t know better. If there’s anything she fails to do well, could you please give her so guidance?" Song Yuanming had specifically sought Xu Xiuxiu before bringing Song Qian back to their hotown and then pitifully pleaded for Xu Xiuxiu’s help.
Due to Song Qian’s family background, Song Yuanming was deeply worried Mrs. Song might disapprove of her, and Song Qian was also very anxious, worrying so much she had lost her appetite recently.
"Relax! Why do you make mom sound like so wicked mother-in-law?" Xu Xiuxiu laughed and nodded, then jokingly scolded Song Yuanming, "All she hopes for is that you bring a wife ho. What else are you worrying about?"
"I’m just preparing in advance, aren’t I? They say mothers-in-law tend to dislike their daughters-in-law more and more over ti, so sister-in-law, you really have to speak up for Qianqian. Mom will listen to you," Song Yuanming continued, trying to preemptively smooth the way for Song Qian.
It had to be said, the three Song brothers, despite their different personalities and temperants, were all very thoughtful when it ca to their wives. Normally, Song Yuanming was quite carefree, but who would have imagined him becoming so ticulous? He really had grown up!
Thinking this, Xu Xiuxiu couldn’t help but sigh. It seed like only yesterday that he was a brash, young lad, and now he was already ready to marry and have children. Ti really flies!
"Alright!" Xu Xiuxiu cheerfully promised to put in a good word or two for Song Qian.
Xu Xiuxiu’s family returned ho earlier this year than Song Yuanming. Because of Song Qian, Song Yuanming had made ti to visit her parents before the new year. Song Qian’s parents were very pleased with Song Yuanming, as he was talented, stable in his job, and earned a good inco while treating their daughter well, without minding the trouble they caused. Such a son-in-law was truly hard to find. Naturally, Song Qian’s parents didn’t have many concerns.
As Song Qian and Song Yuanming prepared to head back to Song Family Village, Song Qian’s parents worriedly advised their daughter.
"My dear girl! Don’t act as casually in their house as you do at ho. Be observant, don’t drag your feet on things you can help with, be quick, and keep your words sweet, understand?" Song Qian’s mother spoke, and although her daughter was getting married and she had many worries, she remained a kind mother, maintaining a reasonable approach. After all, this couple’s matters were pretty much settled, and while the parents surely didn’t want to burden their daughter, they still hoped she would have a good life.
