Rebirth of Bloody Romance

Zhou Xiaobai spent three long days in the hospital, and finally she chose to be discharged. Although she was still a little weak, she wanted to go back home and recuperate slowly.

After returning home, Zhou Xiaobai began to slowly adapt to the new life. As time went by, Zhou Xiaobai gradually adapted to the role of a mother. Zhong Yuemin was also busy every day, coaxing the child, changing diapers for the child. He also had to cook for Zhou Xiaobai, and his vacation was limited. He took care of the child in the beginning, and had to leave it to his mother-in-law Chen Yijun in the end.

The sun shines through the window onto the wooden table in the house, on which is a pot of steaming peanut millet porridge. The aroma of the porridge is so delicious that it makes people salivate. The surface of the millet porridge is shimmering with a light golden luster, like a sunset in autumn.

"Are you ready?" An urgent voice broke the quiet morning. It was Zhou Xiaobai who spoke, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Wait a moment, the fire is not yet ready." Zhong Yuemin replied while stirring with a spoon.

Zhou Xiaobai was wearing a hat and holding onto the door frame with her hands. She stared at the pot of peanut millet porridge. "It looks like it's almost cooked!"

"Don't worry, my dear, it will be fine soon."

"Who told you to cook such a delicious meal? The aroma lured me out of the house."

"Wife, I didn't expect you to be a foodie."

"I wasn't like this before. It's all your fault. Why did you cook it so deliciously?"

At this time, the peanut millet porridge was already cooked, and the heat was just right. Zhong Yuemin fished out a bowl of millet porridge, and Zhou Xiaobai was already sitting at the table waiting. Zhong Yuemin placed the millet porridge in front of Zhou Xiaobai. The surface of the bowl of millet porridge was shining with a golden luster, and it was full of color, fragrance, and taste. Zhou Xiaobai picked up the spoon and scooped up a mouthful of millet porridge, and the taste immediately spread in her mouth.

Zhong Yuemin looked at the intoxicated Zhou Xiaobai and discussed with her, "Wife, I'm leaving in a few days. You can't do it alone, right? How about we find someone to help?"

Zhou Xiaobai replied while drinking millet porridge, "You go on your own way, don't worry about the family. Let our mother come over to help when the time comes."

"Is this appropriate?"

"I told you not to interfere. Should we give our girl a name?"

Zhong Yuemin smiled. "Wife, I leave this important matter to you."

Zhou Xiaobai rolled his eyes at him in annoyance. "You are just lazy and don't want to use your brain. I tell you not to even think about it. Let's each pick a word. You go first."

Zhong Yuemin scratched his head. This was really a headache. He said casually, "There are 300 Tang poems, and I'll take a poem."

Zhou Xiaobai was furious. "Aren't you too casual? Can you be more serious? You're so lazy. You chose the Three Hundred Tang Poems, and I'll choose the word "Hua" from the four arts of calligraphy, chess, and painting." Zhong Shihua's name was decided in this way. The couple really are like family. They are like birds of a feather.

In this way, their daughter got a name - Zhong Shihua. A poetic name, although simple, it contains the parents' good wishes and expectations for their daughter. Although the couple teased each other for being lazy, their hearts were full of love and expectations for their daughter.

In the following days, Zhong Yuemin cooked for Zhou Xiaobai in different ways every day. He took good care of her and helped her recover quickly. Seeing his attentiveness, Zhou Xiaobai was touched.

On this day, Zhong Yuemin made another dish of ginseng stewed chicken. He looked at Zhou Xiaobai with a smile and said gently, "Xiaobai, this is something I prepared specially for you. Try it."

Zhou Xiaobai took the bowl quickly and took a sip of the soup. The thick chicken soup had a faint scent of ginseng, which made her feel extremely nourishing. She couldn't help but take a few more sips before slowly savoring the chicken.

"How's the wife? Does it taste good?"

Although Zhou Xiaobai thought it tasted good, he still felt that he couldn't praise the man in front of him, otherwise he would be proud. "Ahem... ahem, it's okay, it's edible."

Zhong Yuemin saw through her trick and decided to tease her. "Oh, it doesn't taste good, wife, then don't drink it, I'll make it for you again."

As he was about to take the bowl from Zhou Xiaobai's hand, Zhou Xiaobai quickly protected it. "Zhong Yuemin, you are annoying."

This made Zhong Yuemin burst into laughter, and then he made all kinds of dishes, such as stewed pig's trotters with soybeans and ginseng, pig kidneys with black fungus, etc.

Under Zhong Yuemin's careful care, Zhou Xiaobai gradually recovered. She started to get out of bed and walk around the room, and her face became rosy. Zhong Yuemin felt extremely relieved as he watched her getting better day by day.

That night, Zhou Xiaobai suddenly said to Zhong Yuemin affectionately, "Yuemin, thank you."

"Wife, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, I just feel so good having you. When you proposed breaking up, I thought there was no possibility for the two of us. Scenes like this have only appeared in dreams."

"Silly wife, I'm leaving tomorrow. Are you really okay?"

"It's okay, our mother will come tomorrow."

Zhong Yuemin looked at Zhou Xiaobai, then at the sleeping girl Zhong Shihua. He couldn't help but sigh. "To be honest, I really don't want to leave!"

Zhou Xiaobai laughed. "Are you reluctant to leave me? Or are you reluctant to leave your daughter?"

"you guess?"

"Then do you want me to guess?"

"Wife, you are learning to be naughty now!"

"If I follow a bad guy like you, I have to learn to be bad, otherwise I will be bullied to death by you."

Zhong Yuemin suddenly thrust his face in front of Zhou Xiaobai, and Zhou Xiaobai stuttered, "What do you want to do? Not now."

Zhong Yuemin had a wicked smile on his face. "Wife, you have such a dirty mind! I just wanted to ask you if you like being bullied by me, what are you thinking?"

Zhou Xiaobai was so angry that his teeth itched. He shouted angrily, "Zhong Yuemin, get out of here as far as you can."

The next day, Zhou Zhennan and Chen Yijun arrived early. Zhong Yuemin hurried forward. "Dad, Mom, thank you for your hard work."

"Why are you being so polite to us, kid?"

Zhou Zhennan instructed him, "You can go back without worry. Your mother has asked for leave during this period. We will take Xiaobai back after she is one month old."

After the holiday ended, Zhong Yuemin began to prepare for the departure. He knew that he would face more severe challenges after returning to the barracks. However, he was no longer a man who could feed himself and his family. He was a man who became a father and a man who was about to take on the burden of the family.

Zhong Yuemin quietly packed his luggage, his heart full of determination and expectation. He told himself that he would retire within a year no matter what. He also promised Zhou Xiaobai that he would do his best to become a better man and a better father.

Zhong Yuemin said goodbye to Zhou Xiaobai and his daughter Zhong Shihua, and boarded the train back to the military camp. He looked at the scenery outside the window, his heart full of expectation and determination. He knew that this departure was for a better reunion next time.

When the trainees were doing the cross-country training, a few female soldiers came to Yuan Jun to gossip. Yuan Jun looked around and wondered what they wanted to do. He only heard one of the female soldiers ask, "Hi, rookie 250."

When Yuan Jun heard the female soldier's address, his face immediately turned dark. He ignored them and continued to run forward. The other female soldier was unhappy. "Rookie 250, we are talking to you, didn't you hear us?"

"If you weren't female soldiers, I would have beaten you up."

One of the female soldiers said with disdain, "Why are you pretending in front of us? Every time the instructor called you, didn't you also jump up and down?"

"Why are you pretending in front of us? Besides, if you want to beat us, can you beat us?"

After hearing these words, Yuan Jun's mouth twitched. He thought: What a sin this grandson Zhong Yuemin has committed! He has trained a good woman into a tomboy. Alas! I can't argue with them. If we fight, it seems that winning or losing is not good. Who the hell did I offend? "What the hell do you want to do?"

"I heard that you are quite familiar with our chief instructor?"

"It's alright, what do you mean?"

"What can we do? We haven't seen the chief instructor for a few days, so we're curious. Where has he been?"

"I actually know about this. He went home."

"Go home? Are you kidding me?"

"That's right. We were training so hard here, why did he run back home?"

"Isn't it good for him to go home? Otherwise you will suffer. Enjoy the quietness now. You will suffer when he comes back."

"Rookie 250, do you know something? Tell us."

Yuan Jun replied angrily, "This is a military secret. How would I know?"

"Then how can you say that we are in a better situation?"

"Yes! 250, will you tell us? If you don't, we will beat you up later."

Yuan Jun almost jumped up when he heard this. If he was really beaten by a few women and the news reached the ears of Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong's two grandsons, wouldn't he become a laughing stock for the rest of his life?

Thinking of this, Yuan Jun lost his momentum. He whispered, "Sisters, I really don't know! I just heard the instructors tremble when they talked about this matter."

"What kind of training is this that can make those perverted instructors tremble?"

Yuan Jun slapped his thigh. "That's what I thought at the time! I even asked out of curiosity, you don't know how those instructors looked at me, I still remember it clearly."

"250, can you please stop wasting time and tell us what you have to say so that we can have a better understanding of the situation."

"When they saw that look, they had a sympathetic look in their eyes, which meant you were finished."

"From what I hear, are we in trouble?"

"Chief Instructor, please don't come back. Stay at home for a while until we graduate."

Unfortunately, their wish was not fulfilled. When they came back from the armed cross-country race, they saw the chief instructor, which made them realize that they were in big trouble.

When the team gathered after breakfast, Zhong Yuemin appeared in front of them. He was dressed in military uniform and had sharp eyes, like a tiger in the jungle. He stood in front of the team, looked around, and then began to lecture.

"During the time I was away, I was very disappointed with the performance of the instructors. I didn't see anyone being eliminated, which made me very angry. From today on, our training will become more difficult, and it will be unbearable for ordinary people. Now, does anyone want to leave?"

There was silence in the queue, and no one wanted to leave at this time. Zhong Yuemin waved his hand, and someone brought out a row of benches, allowing the people in the queue to sit down one by one.

"Okay! No one wants to leave, right? I guess so. The smart people have already left, and most of the remaining ones are fools." Zhong Yuemin smiled sarcastically.

The rookies were all confused. They had thought that the following training would be even more strenuous, and that the perverted instructors would tremble in training. But now they were asked to sit down. What did this mean?

The rookies were all confused. Didn't they say that the next training would be even harder? Did the perverted instructors have to tremble during the training? What was the point of asking them to sit down now?
