Just as Yin Xiaoman was trying hard to organize language so that Squad Leader Zhou would not reveal this relationship for the time being, Squad Leader Zhou suddenly stopped the action.

The excited expression on his face also stopped.

He was stunned for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and then his expression changed from the initial excitement and joy to the deep depression and guilt.

He looked at Yin Xiaoman and said apologetically: "Xiaoman, we cannot talk about this kind of relative relationship for the time being."

Yin Xiaoman was stunned by his words.

And her brief momentary stunned look in the eyes of Squad Leader Zhou, he understood it as disappointed.

He quickly explained: "Xiaoman, you have a different identity now."

He pointed at it with his finger: "The nature of your current work...the ingredients in our family will drag you down."

Speaking of this, he smiled softly, his smile full of bitterness.

"You and the battalion commander, it is not easy for your family to have such a place to live. You cannot delay your future because of this matter in our family.

If you are good on the island, the battalion commander will definitely have a bright future.

As long as you live a good life, it is not that important to recognize relatives or not.”

Speaking of this, he sighed, sat on the stool and added some more to Yin Xiaoman's porridge bowl: "But don't worry, I will definitely recognize you, my sister. As long as you stay in the camp for a day in the future, I will definitely take good care of you in this regard.

Just be careful in front of outsiders, don’t spread the word.”

After hearing what he said, Yin Xiaoman's nose suddenly became sore.

She remembered her previous thoughts and felt extremely guilty.

She muttered and screamed: "Brother."

"Why!"

Squad Leader Zhou suddenly opened his mouth with joy. The face that was already a little baby-ish looked even younger at this moment.

Yin Xiaoman rubbed his nose and asked, "Brother, you recognize me just by just one tattoo... Isn't it really too hasty?"

She waved her hand and said, "Don't think too much. I either don't recognize you. I just think, would you make a mistake?"

"Won't."

Squad Leader Zhou answered very confidently.

"I'm going to tell you, I thought you were kind-hearted when I first met you, but I couldn't think of where we'd seen you.

But now I understand that you should look like your mother, that is, my sister-in-law.

And grandpa has a photo of his aunt when she was a child, which was taken when she was sixteen years old.

He always takes it out and sees it, I've seen it more than once.

I didn’t meet the number before, but now I think about it, you look exactly the same as the little aunt in the photo!”

Speaking of this, his eyes turned red again, and he couldn't tell whether he was crying or laughing.

"I really want my grandfather to meet you too! If he could meet you when he was alive, he would be able to rest in peace."

After saying that, he lowered his head.

After a while, I wiped my face and looked up at Yin Xiaoman again: "I'm sorry, I'm a little excited now, I have to go slow.

Xiaoman, your body is the most important now. Don’t think about anything else. With me here, you can just speak up whatever you want.

As long as you say, I will definitely find a way to do it for you.

You can get it without saying it, at least it will be much more confident than others."

After a while, he cried and laughed in the room, which made Yin Xiaoman's emotions rise and fall with him.

What else can I think of for a moment?

Seeing her keep shaking her head and saying nothing, Squad Leader Zhou thought for a while and asked, "Do you eat egg custard?

I’ll steam some egg custard for you at noon?”

Yin Xiaoman thought about it, because the island had been closed for so long, and he saved a lot of money and various tickets, and probably some of them were about to be invalidated.

Since my cousin has the ability to help buy food, there is no need to be reserved.

So he nodded: "Brother, if you have a way, use all the money Qingyun brought you.

Saving things is better than saving tickets.

At least don't be invalid."

After hearing what she said, Squad Leader Zhou looked dissatisfied.

“It will not be invalid.

Our kitchen class also has to buy a lot of things every day. Without giving any explanation, I will use up your tickets and Comrade Xiao Qiao first.

As for what you want to bring back to the island, I will prepare it when you confirm the discharge date.

Tell me what you want at that time, and I will buy it for you."

Speaking of this, he explained again: "Our delegation headquarters is in the city, and it is very convenient to go to the grain store, supply and marketing cooperative, or vegetable market.

It’s hot and the canteen doesn’t store vegetables, so we have to go out to purchase every morning.

Buying things for you is a matter of passing the process, and it doesn’t take much trouble.

You don’t have to think too early, it will be too late to say it temporarily.”

After explaining this, his topic turned back to lunch again.

"I'll stew you an egg custard at noon and steam a bowl of white rice, okay?"

"OK."

Yin Xiaoman nodded.

Seeing how happy she agreed, Squad Leader Zhou was also happy.

After packing up the tableware she used, she took them all outside to wash them clean despite her series of refusals, and then left with a smile.

As a result, just after he left, Qiao Mai walked in.

"Xiaoman, did the kitchen class give you date cakes in the morning?

Oh my god, there are people in the group who can make this, it's so delicious!"

She looked excited.

Even as he spoke, he carefully opened the handkerchief he was holding in his hand. Only then did Yin Xiaoman see that her handkerchief was wrapped in a small piece of date cake exactly the same as what he had eaten before.

"I left a piece and you can eat it.

Children need a lot of nutrition, so you must eat more.”

Qiao Mai held Zaogao in front of her.

Yin Xiaoman looked at her.

All she saw in her eyes was sincerity.

She knew that this girl was really a solid person.

When she is not familiar with her, she looks like she is keeping people from thousands of miles away and is difficult to get along with; when she is familiar with her, she will treat you with all her heart.

Yin Xiaoman remembered Liu Chang for some reason, and felt that it was a pity to miss a girl like Qiao Mai.

She sighed and pointed to the rice bowl on the table beside the bed, which was covered with a piece of clean gauze.

"There are still some noodles in there. I can't eat them, so you can eat them together."

After hearing what she said, Qiao Mai was stunned, and then walked over and unbelievably uncovered the gauze.

When I saw that there were indeed two pieces of jujube cake that didn't even move, I didn't show any joy, but was furious.

"Xiaoman, why don't you eat it? You just put such a good thing on it, aren't you afraid of being broken?

Don’t be willful. If you don’t eat the baby in your stomach, you still have to eat it! If you are malnourished, what if you are the same as me in the future?”

Qiao Mai said, she had a temper. She put the handkerchief bag in her hand on the table and was about to come and help her: "Xiaoman, I will help you up, eat them, and then go to bed after eating."

"Hey, don't touch me."

Yin Xiaoman was so depressed that he wanted to beat the wall.

She was embarrassed to tell Qiao Mai that what my cousin brought her was not two pieces, but a small lunch box.

Because she used the Xiaomi she brought with me, my cousin was honest and afraid that she would suffer a loss. She gave her all the steamer except for Qiao Mai.

She was watched by him and ate half a bowl of porridge and several pieces of date cake. If she eats it again now, she will really vomit.

"You spare me, I'm really full!"

Yin Xiaoman patted his hospital bed with helpless look on his face and looked at Qiao Mai: "Do you know if you eat less and more meals?

The doctors didn't let me eat too much.

Also, try sleeping upside down to see if you can still eat it!"
