I Bacame the Mother of His Child-Chapter 13 - 12: To the Military District Dormitory

"It's a lot." Xu Xiuxiu looked at Zhao Nan and Zhao Xiumei beside her who were helping with the luggage and anxiously replied, if it weren't for their initiative, she feared she wouldn't have been able to get off the train at all. With a child in one hand and a mountain of stuff in the other, it was really a hassle, "I'm really grateful to Sister Zhao and Nannan for their help."

"Thanks for your hard work." Song Yuanhuan nodded his head toward Zhao Xiumei and Zhao Nan.

Zhao Nan had always admired his father and liked the green military dress. Seeing Song Yuanhuan in his crisp uniform, he immediately cheerfully responded, "Not hard at all." He shyly scratched the back of his head and looked at Xu Xiuxiu, "Auntie, is that my little brother's dad?" He's really imposing, even handsomer than his own dad, only his expression is a bit too stern.

"That's right!" Xu Xiuxiu smiled softly as she lowered her gaze.

"Hello uncle, I am Zhao Nan, six years old this year." Zhao Nan immediately saluted Song Yuanhuan, his posture quite accurate.

"Are you Zhao Jian Country's son?" Looking at the little child who wasn't even one meter tall, Song Yuanhuan raised an eyebrow and asked. He remembered Xiao Gao mentioning just now that this kid seemed to be from Commissar Zhao Jian Country's family, which should be about right.

"Yes, uncle." Zhao Nan immediately nodded, his eyes full of curiosity about the world's connections, "Do you know my dad?" Does that mean he could see the beautiful Aunt Xiu Xiu and the adorable little brother again in the future?

"I know him." Song Yuanhuan nodded, "Xiao Gao, aren't you going to help Miss Zhao with the luggage? What are you standing there dazed for?" He then showed a stern face and called out to Xiao Gao who was still clueless behind him.

Once Xiao Gao heard Song Yuanhuan's call, he immediately came to his senses and rushed over, "Captain, are these the Commissar's sister and kid?" After speaking, he immediately looked at Zhao Xiumei and Zhao Nan with a smile, "Hello, sister, the Commissar is busy with important matters, so he asked me to meet you at the station." As he spoke, he reached out to take the luggage from Zhao Xiumei's hands.

"Thank you." Zhao Xiumei expressed her thanks gracefully. She knew her younger brother was busy at work, and it was fine as long as someone was arranged to meet them at the station. If she hadn't been unable to find the military unit, there wouldn't have even been the need to bother someone to come to the station.

"It's no trouble at all." Xiao Gao replied heartily, "Since everyone has been picked up, let's go! The vehicle is parked outside!" After giving a shout, Comrade Xiao Gao took the lead carrying the luggage out.

Song Yuanhuan and Xiao Gao were both soldiers, well-trained on normal days. Soon, the luggage that had been giving Xu Xiuxiu such a headache was neatly sorted and put onto the vehicle by the two men, and they then all got into the car.

Xiao Gao sat in the driver's seat, while Song Yuanhuan sat in the passenger seat. Xu Xiuxiu held Little Chen Guang and sat in the rear seat with Zhao Nan and Zhao Xiumei. At first, the atmosphere in the car was rather gloomy, but under Xiao Gao's lead, it eventually became bearable.

"It's really such a coincidence! Right, captain? Look, my sister-in-law and Miss Zhao obviously don't know each other, but they met on the same train trip. That's what you call fate!" Xiao Gao was lively by nature, not as silent as Song Yuanhuan, and he took the initiative to strike up conversation during the entire trip, so the car wasn't lacking in entertainment.

"Uncle Xiao Gao, you have no idea how brave Aunt Xiu Xiu was on the train. No one wanted to speak up to help, and I was scared to death. It was only Aunt Xiu Xiu who bravely stood up and scared away that bad person," declared Zhao Nan indignantly, turning his head to look at Xu Xiuxiu, who was holding Song Chengguang. The look in his eyes was filled with a mixture of admiration, respect, and envy.

He admired her courage and was also envious that Song Chen had such a good mom!

Noticing Zhao Nan's gaze, Xu Xiuxiu chuckled lightly, "I wasn't that brave. I simply bluffed with the green military dress that your dad and others wear." She had only said a few words after all, it was nothing to make a fuss over, and only this little guy would look at her with such admiration.

Although Xu Xiuxiu was being modest, Zhao Nan was firm in her little thoughts.

And Song Yuanhuan, sitting in the passenger seat, quietly listened to their conversation, his gaze occasionally sweeping over Xu Xiuxiu in the backseat, then a sense of satisfaction slowly welled up in his heart. His delicate little wife had actually performed a righteous deed on the train! That was truly incredible, wasn't it?

Just like that, the car drove on, and after more than an hour, they arrived at the military base.

Song Yuanhuan's dormitory was closer, so he got out of the car first, swiftly taking his luggage. Xu Xiuxiu followed, carrying little Cheng Guang, "Xiao Gao, hurry up and take Sister Zhao and Nannan back to their home!" Song Yuanhuan instructed Xiao Gao.

"Yes, Captain, mission guaranteed to be completed." Xiao Gao saluted, nodded, got into the car, and then floored the gas pedal as the car sped off.

Watching the car drive away, Song Yuanhuan turned to look at Xu Xiuxiu, "The dormitory is on the second floor in that room, you go ahead and take Cheng Guang upstairs to rest for a bit. I'll handle the luggage."

"Okay, be careful," Xu Xiuxiu responded, holding Song Chengguang and heading toward the end of the second floor to their room, with Song Yuanhuan following with the luggage.

Xu Xiuxiu pushed open the door and entered the room.

Inside, the room was very simple, a quick glance captured everything that was there, simple enough to surprise Xu Xiuxiu. Was this really the dormitory of a soldier?

A bunk bed just wide enough for one person, with a cotton quilt and a pillow. A small wooden desk, a teapot, a large teacup, a washcloth, a washbowl, and a set of toiletries, plus a small wardrobe. That was it—so simple it was almost Spartan.

"The Military District family housing is still under construction, and recently, many families have come to visit, leaving not enough old family housing available, so you'll have to squeeze in here for now. It's a bit rudimentary, but water and electricity are quite convenient, and there's a bathroom in the room," Song Yuanhuan, who was used to military life, said. For him, this place was already quite good, much better than when he was a rookie soldier sharing a room with a dozen comrades.

"It's quite nice!" said Xu Xiuxiu, sitting on the metal bed with Song Chengguang. She could adapt to many things, but she worried if the small bed was really big enough for three people.

"Are you hungry?" Song Yuanhuan glanced at his watch, realizing it was nearly mealtime, and so he asked Xu Xiuxiu.

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

"Mm!" She only had a vegetable bun for lunch, which had long been digested.

"Okay, you sit and rest for a bit, I'm going to the canteen to get some food," Song Yuanhuan said, turning to take the food container out of the room to head for the canteen.

"Wait, does the army canteen have food suitable for Cheng Guang to eat?" Xu Xiuxiu wasn't particular about her own meals, but she was concerned about Song Chengguang possibly going hungry in the military base.

Song Yuanhuan paused, looking at his son who, prompted by Xu Xiuxiu's call, also stared back at him with round, wide eyes, "Can he eat normal food?"

"He can, it's just not very digestible." The digestive system of a child isn't very strong, and the little guy had previously been starved somewhat severely by his birth parents, so now even slightly greasy foods could easily upset his stomach.
