Chapter 657 Zhou Hao figured it out, Zhou Tian arranged
"Brother, do you know what I hear most in the army?"
Zhou Hao lowered his head and continued to smoke. Without waiting for Zhou Tian to answer, he continued in a low voice: "It's war!"
"Not to mention the domestic suppression of bandits, even the surrounding countries are eyeing me covetously, so I am afraid. I am afraid that one day I will die on the battlefield, leaving Yaning alone. Instead of this, I might as well not marry Yaning. In this way, she can get married in the future! And she can live a new life."
Zhou Hao's eyes flashed with incomparable complexity. He could not forget, could not forget the war scenes described by the veterans who had gone through the war, nor could he forget how many families were separated because of the war.
Although it is an honor for a soldier to go to the battlefield, it has to be said that he was afraid and retreated when it came to marriage.
It was because he loved Chen Yaning that he didn't want to delay her. It was also because he knew the cruelty of war that he didn't want him to die in battle one day and Chen Yaning to live a lonely life.
"Hey!"
After hearing what his second brother said, Zhou Tian couldn't help but be silent for a while. He knew that his second brother was right. Even with all the measures he had prepared for his second brother, he could not guarantee that his second brother would be safe if a war really broke out.
But Zhou Tian disagreed with his idea. Yes, war is dangerous, but just because of the danger, does that mean soldiers won't get married? Won't they start a family?
What is the purpose of soldiers going to the battlefield? Isn't it to defend their country and keep the war outside the border?
It is also for the sake of future generations. If not, what is the point of defending the country?
"Second brother, I don't know when you started to have this idea, but what I want to say is that your negative idea is wrong. Soldiers go to the battlefield to defend their country, and women giving birth in the rear is not another way to defend their country?"
"The old man once said that there is strength in numbers. Doesn't the old man see farther than you? I have to say that there is some truth in what you just said, but are you really doing this for Yaning's good? You didn't even ask Yaning's opinion. Don't you think you are a little selfish?"
Yes, my second brother did this for Chen Yaning’s own good, but this era is not like the era of ideological confusion and moral decline in his previous life.
This era emphasizes dedication, but the traditional idea of women is still to bear children and also shoulder their own mission.
Morality is also a standard that people follow in this era, especially since the two were already engaged and ultimately couldn't be together, how could Chen Yaning get married again?
Not to mention that Zhou Tian himself disagreed, the Chen family would not agree either.
"Brother, me?"
Hearing his elder brother say this, Zhou Hao couldn't help but want to refute, but Zhou Tian waved his hand to stop him and said: "Listen to me first, what you did is indeed impeccable from your standpoint, but don't forget, what will you let Chen Yaning do? What will the Chen family do?
Forget it, you should think about it carefully. This is not just your problem, but the problem of both families. You can think about it tonight. If you figure it out, come with me to the Chen family to pick up the bride the day after tomorrow. If you can't figure it out, I will also accompany you to the Chen family to cancel the engagement!"
After Zhou Tian finished speaking, he didn't want to say any more. He stood up, walked to Zhou Hao, patted his shoulder, sighed, turned around and walked out of the study, leaving Zhou Hao alone still sitting in the study, bowing his head and saying nothing.
After all, it's best for him to think things through himself. Outsiders have no right to interfere, even if he is his elder brother.
After leaving the study, Zhou Tian looked at his wife outside who looked worried, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"Boss, what's going on? What did you say to Xiaohao? Why hasn't Xiaohao come out yet?"
Shen Yulin watched her husband walk out of the study and couldn't help but step forward and ask.
"What else can I do? This kid is just being stubborn. Forget it, let him figure it out. I've already said everything I need to say. By the way, ask Yaning to come over tomorrow to persuade this kid. I think it will be almost over by then. What I'm worried about now is Xiaohao's change of defense!"
As Zhou Tian spoke, he couldn't help but frown. Although he had done a lot of military industry and developed a lot of weapons in the past few years, he also knew that although the weapons he developed were not worse than those of Big Brother and Bald Eagle, it would take a long time to popularize them.
In such a short time, it would be good enough to be able to re-equip several armies. As the war with India on the border is about to begin, I don’t know whether the Southwest Military Region has issued new weapons.
"Change of guard, sir, do you mean to say that our country is going to war again?"
Shen Yulin immediately realized the key point in her husband's words and couldn't help but ask with more concern.
"This is just my guess, but we have to be on guard. Forget it, you should just get this done first!"
Zhou Tian changed the subject and said that it was really not appropriate for his wife to know this kind of news.
"All right!"
Seeing that her husband was unwilling to say more, Shen Yulin became even more worried, but after all, she was just a housewife and everything was still based on the head of the household. Since the head of the household said so, she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
The next day, Zhou Tian saw his second brother again. Looking at his dark eyes, he knew that he must not have slept all night.
"How about it, have you thought about it?"
Zhou Tian sat on the sofa in the living room, looked at him and asked.
"Brother, I've made up my mind. I am willing to marry Yaning!"
Zhou Hao couldn't help but feel a little ashamed as he spoke. He thought about it all night last night and felt that he was indeed a little selfish, just like his elder brother said. After all, Yaning had already given her whole self to him, but he was still hesitant, which was indeed a bit unmanly.
Although war is indeed dangerous, he does not think that he will really be the one killed in battle. And if he gives up, his heart will ache at the thought of Chen Yaning marrying someone else.
He found that he simply couldn't do it. He couldn't give the woman he loved to someone else. You could say he was selfish or that he didn't care about other people's happiness. Anyway, he had already made up his mind that he wanted to marry Chen Yaning. This was his final thought.
"It's good that you've thought it through. Today, I've asked your sister-in-law to call Yaning over again. I was planning to persuade you again, but now that you've thought it through, I guess it's not necessary. How about this, you and I will go to the Chen family to pick up the bride tomorrow. I've already arranged everything!"
"The banquet will be held at our house, with 20 tables. Don't make it extravagant. In addition, there is another courtyard in front, which can be your new home. As for your courtyard in Houhai, you can live there whenever you want, but you still have to have a place to stay here, Big Brother!"
