Xingyue nodded.

He took the sweet potato, but didn't gobble it up. He ate very slowly. Wen Ni poured him another glass of water.

"If you don't have enough, I'll get you more."

Xingyue shook her head.

Wen Ni knew it, and he would rather not say anything than to avoid it.

Wen Ni couldn't keep staring at him while he was eating. When she was packing up her things in the tent, a horn sounded.

This is an order to assemble.

Something happened in the army.

But she didn't expect that Xingyue put down the sweet potato and stood upright in front of her -

Military posture, military salute.

Wen Ni was completely surprised.

He was only five years old, how could he have such skillful movements? Could it be that he was the child of a soldier?

When Wen Ni discovered this problem, she decided to contact the embassy.

If they are the descendants of martyrs, they should not be left behind in a foreign country.

"Xingyue, you are not a soldier, but you know how to do these things. Who told you to do these things? Do you still remember?"

Wen Ni pulled Xingyue over and half-knelt in front of Xingyue.

Xingyue saw Wen Ni, he didn't say anything, but he noticed that Wen Ni's black eyes were as bright as stars.

"grandfather."

Although Xingyue's words were brief, Wen Ni understood them.

It seemed that his grandfather was gone, otherwise, he would not have been wandering outside in rags and dirt.

"You rest first. I'm going out for a while. Don't run around when I'm not around." Wen Ni touched Xingyue's head.

Xingyue nodded obediently.

……

Wen Ni went out and went to the embassy first.

At the embassy, ​​she reported all the problems she had discovered to the person in charge. "I found out the name of the child you asked me to take away. His name is Xingyue. He said he had never seen his parents, but when he heard the order to assemble, he could stand at attention properly. He reacted very quickly. I asked him, and he said his grandfather taught him. I'm afraid he is the descendant of a soldier. I think you can find a professional to come here as soon as possible to communicate with this child and give him a better home."

The embassy will investigate whether she is the descendant of a soldier. I believe that they will be able to give Xingyue a perfect result soon.

What Wen Ni discovered is not impossible.

However, the embassy could not just follow Wen Ni's one-sided words and declare Xingyue a martyr. The person in charge said, "Not so fast. It will take at least three days. You should communicate well with this child. I think this child is a little dependent on you. You'd better ask for some valuable clues."

"I try my best."

Wen Ni couldn't guarantee it absolutely, but since she had encountered this incident, she couldn't just ignore it.

After leaving the embassy, ​​Wen Ni went to the market again.

Because of the war, markets were concentrated in underground air-raid shelters, which were hot, stuffy, crowded, and far away.

Wen Ni spent more than two hours there. She squeezed in and bought two sets of clothes for Xingyue. She also bought some food.

By the time she returned to the army, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.

From a distance, she saw Xingyue standing at the entrance of the tent. The moment Xingyue saw her, she ran towards her quickly.

Xingyue didn't say anything, but hugged her tightly.

Wen Ni also didn't expect that a quiet child who she just met would be so clingy to her.

She helped only because the army found him first, and then he was Chinese, he was a poor child, and other than that it was his first time...there was nothing else.

"Go into the tent, I bought you some things."

Not only did she buy things for Xingyue, she also procured some food and medicines for the army. Now that the country was strong, her help was no longer needed.

However, she often went to help the poor and injured people, giving them food and extra meals, and the cooks knew all of this.

Xingyue held her hand tightly, so tightly that even Wen Ni could feel that his palms were sweating.

"Take a look, do you like these two sets of clothes?"

Wen Ni turned the clothes out with her other hand. Because of the turmoil of war, white clothes were not resistant to dirt, so she bought a set of camouflage and a set of sky blue.

The distance was too far, so she couldn't carry too many things. After she sent Xingyue to the embassy and the embassy verified Xingyue's identity, she would leave some things for Xingyue.

Xingyue didn't even look at the two sets of clothes. His eyes were red and he even looked a little timid.

Wen Ni couldn't bear it and hugged him in her arms, "Don't be afraid, these are our Chinese soldiers, they won't attack you like soldiers from other countries. I promised you, I won't break my promise. Try on your clothes quickly."

As she said that, Wen Ni helped him put on his clothes. Xingyue didn't say anything, but cooperated obediently.

Wen Ni carried him to the camp bed and said, "When I go out next time, don't stand at the door waiting for me. Otherwise, if something happens, it will be dangerous for you to stand at the door. Also, if you hear any noise, hide under the table or bed and don't come out, okay?"

China is no longer as cowardly as it was a hundred years ago. Although it has the confidence to compete with other countries, it will be entangled if other countries unite to start a war.

Other countries are more ambitious.

They can attack at any time, and if something goes wrong, the child might be frightened and it might be too late to deal with it.

Xingyue held Wen Ni's hand tightly.

He shook his head, but a hint of determination flashed across his eyes. He was not afraid of war, but he was more afraid of not being able to see Wen Ni.

For him, he doesn't like talking to others or contacting others, but Wen Ni can give him a special feeling.

Especially when Wen Ni hugged him and he leaned against her chest, he heard Wen Ni's heartbeat and felt particularly at ease.

He didn't want to lose Wen Ni and wanted to stay with her forever.

Wen Ni patted his shoulder and said, "During the time you've been with me, I won't break my promise."

There was a trace of panic in Xingyue's eyes, "Don't... don't leave me... I want to stay with you forever... please..."

Xingyue's voice was slow and hoarse, and her black eyes revealed a misty color.

Wen Ni can't bear it.

She stroked Xingyue's head and said, "Let's see what the embassy says."

If Xingyue still has family, then she must be sent to reunite with her family. If not, if Xingyue wants to stay with her...

Alas, she couldn't refuse.

"I don't have...a...family...you are like a mother..."

Xingyue's throat seemed to be stuck with something foreign, and he was hoarse and it was particularly difficult for him to speak. At the same time, the red bloodshot under his eyes was so obvious.

At the same time, the word "Mom" also deeply touched Wen Ni's heart. When Hongchou told her that her child was still alive, she had been waiting for five years.

For five years, Ye Nanzhou's whereabouts were unknown, and a cenotaph was built for him. As for her...even though she had been in Country S for five years, she had always been paying attention to the country, looking for that child -
