Chapter 893 - 893 Deceiving Yun Lin's Family
893 Deceiving Yun Lin’s Family
When everything was settled, the sky was already dark. Yun Qiao and Luo Chen took the car that Luo Chen’s father had arranged for them to go home.
The two wanted to decline, but Luo Chen’s father was worried about his daughter. He did not want Luo Chen to go back in the middle of the night. Besides, the military unit was located in a remote area, and it was troublesome to get there.
It was almost 8:00 PM when they reached home. They had not had dinner yet, so Yun Qiao and Luo Chen ordered two bowls of beef ramen from a nearby restaurant.
Hot ramen was served, and Yun Qiao put the beef in his bowl into Luo Chen’s.
“I haven’t used this pair of chopsticks yet. Eat more meat.” As if he was afraid that Luo Chen would despise him, Yun Qiao blushed and said.
Luo Chen laughed after hearing that. “We’re already husband and wife, why would I mind it? There are only a few pieces of meat in this bowl, and you only eat noodles?”
“I’m so strong. It’s okay to eat less. Besides, I like noodles more!”
Luo Chen felt that her husband was really cute. He was still so easily embarrassed even after getting married. She liked him more and more.
It was already 8:30 PM when they got home. They saw Ma Yan and her husband watching television on the sofa. They looked at each other and decided to tell them that they would be going back to the Army next week.
“Dad, mom, Chenchen, and I have something to tell you.”
“Alright, you guys go ahead.”
Yun Lin turned down the volume of the television, but Ma Yan, who was beside him, smacked him. “Hey, what are you doing? this television series is at the most exciting part!”
Then, Ma Yan looked at the two of them unhappily, her mind still on the television. “If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don’t delay me from watching the show.”
Yun Qiao secretly shook his hand. This was his usual habit when he felt nervous. Then, he said what they had discussed on the way.
“Dad, mom, Chenchen, and I plan to return to the army next week. The recall letter we received yesterday said that we’re short of people at this time, so we have to go back quickly.”
Ma Yan’s face changed when she heard that. After they left, she would have to pay the nanny for cooking and cleaning. The money she had just saved would be spent again!
Yun Gang would send money to Yun Lin’s family on time every month. Other than the Old Madam’s support funds, there was also the money for the rent and the monthly nanny.
Ma Yan could not use the money from the rent, so she had to make a fuss about the price of the nanny. She had secretly discussed with the nanny that she would pay by the hour. Anyway, Luo Chen could do the housework now, so she would help occasionally.
“How can we do that? I don’t agree!” Ma Yan blurted out when she thought of this.
Yun Qiao and Luo Chen were both shocked by her. Even Yun Lin, who was sitting beside her, frowned and said, “If you don’t agree, then don’t. Why are you so loud?”
Ma Yan noticed that she seemed to be too eager and awkwardly cleared her throat to cover it up.
“I just can’t bear to see the child moving out. Usually, it’s just me and mom alone at home. If Chenchen leaves, there’s no one to accompany me. It’s so lonely!
“Besides, how long have you been married? I remember that you’ve only been married for slightly more than a week, but the army is so anxious to call you back. It’s too inhumane!”
“These two children are also very honest. They just went back when they were told to. Maybe they said this on purpose so that you can go back to work and they can rest well! I’ve never heard of a newly-wedded couple being summoned back!”
Ma Yan did not give Yun Qiao and Luo Chen a chance to talk. She started to nag on her own. Between her words, she was thinking for them. However, Luo Chen had lived with Ma Yan for so many days that he had long understood her intention. She just wanted him to stay at home and continue to do the housework. She would rather go back to the Army. At least, she could do what she liked and not be confined to this small room.
“But it’s an emergency in the army. If there’s an emergency, the soldiers who receive the recall letter must go back.” Yun Qiao’s face was serious as he said this with determination.
“Yes, mom. This is the agreement we signed when we first joined the army. If we don’t abide by it, not only will we have to pay compensation, but we will also be dismissed!”
Luo Chen’s face was full of worry as if it was a matter of fact.
Of course, Ma Yan did not know about these rules. After all, ever since Yun Qiao joined the army, she had never cared about him.
Therefore, when he heard what the two of them said, he thought of the fact that he would have to compensate them and might even lose Yun Qiao, his source of income, and retreated a little.
“This …”
“Don’t say anymore. Since the army needs you, then hurry up and go back!”
Yun Lin interrupted Ma Yan’s words. Although he was honest, he had always been a man with a sense of justice. Therefore, he did not let his wife continue to stop them.
