Accidentally entered a high gate

As soon as Xiao Wanwan finished speaking, Ma Lihan and Xie Ange rushed up.

Xie Ange hugged the little bowl to her chest. "Go to your aunt's room with your aunt, she'll put you to sleep."

Ma Lihan raised his leg and kicked Ma Lifeng in the butt. "Whose little bottom are you going to smash? How do you watch children? Don't you know this is the second floor? Don't you know it's dangerous near the window?"

Ma Yanhua and Ma Yanqing also ran up.

Ma Yanhua: "Wanwan, don't be afraid. Third Brother will definitely be able to fix the radio. Third Brother is very good at fixing things."

Ma Yanqing: "Wanwan, are you scared?"

No. But she wanted her uncle to kick her father a few more times. "I was so scared! Waaah... Third Brother, you have to fix the radio! Waaah..."

Little Bowl Bowl also inherited her father's ability to cry on cue.

Ma Lihan originally only intended to kick Ma Lifeng once, but when Wanwan started crying, Ma Lihan kicked her two more times.

Xie Ange had already walked to the door with Wanwan in her arms, but she turned back and slapped Ma Lifeng. "Not only did you not watch Wanwan properly, but you also scared her."

Ma Yanhua and Ma Yanqing couldn't beat Ma Lifeng because of their seniority, but they could condemn him with their eyes.

The brother and sister scolded him several times before leaving.

Ma Lihan kicked him again and said, "If you let Wanwan go to dangerous places again, I'll have Shengli make you run ten kilometers with weights on you!" before leaving.

Ma Lifeng: "..." Ugh... When he gets back to Beijing, he's going to tell his wife. His daughter is so mean.

Ma Lifeng rubbed his backside and went to find his friends. He had quite a few friends on both his eldest and second eldest brother's side. He didn't have many friends on his parents' side, though.

When Ma Lifeng came downstairs, only Ma Yanhua was in the living room repairing the radio. No one else was there.

Ma Lifeng knew without a doubt that his elder brother, his sister-in-law, and his third niece were all in his elder brother and sister-in-law's room coaxing that little rascal.

As Ma Lifeng passed by Ma Yanhua, he said, "Don't let that little rascal down," before leaving.

While fixing the radio, Ma Yanhua replied, "Don't worry, I won't let you have a chance to break the bowl."

Ma Lifeng's friends were all very happy to see him.

Little Bowl was also very happy. Because Ma Lihan and Xie Ange, who never took afternoon naps, specially accompanied her for one.

After Xiaowan woke up, Xie Ange first made her a cup of malted milk powder, and then asked her if she wanted to go to work with her.

Little Bowl returned her a smile. "I'm willing." Her dad must have gone off to play by himself. If she were to ask her dad why he didn't take her, he would definitely say that he wanted her to spend more time with her uncle and aunt, as well as her third brother and third sister.

Xie Ange: "..." This child is both adorable and beautiful. "Lihan, let's leave the bowl here."

Ma Lihan thought so too. But, "If we leave the bowls behind, Father will come and kill them himself."

Xie Ange wanted to say, "Then you should work harder to get transferred to Beijing," but her father-in-law and her second brother-in-law were already in Beijing.

Xie Ange picked up Xiao Wanwan. "Then I can only cherish Wanwan as much as I can while she's here. Don't try to take her from me!"

"Okay, okay. Wanwan, your uncle will take you to see airplanes and cannons on Sunday."

Xie Ange: "..." I forgot about that. "I'll go too."

"I see you every day."

"Then I'll go too."

……

In the evening, Ma Lifeng returned home after having dinner with his friends.

When Ma Yanhua saw him return, she pointed to the radio on the table. "Look, it's fixed."

Ma Lifeng wasn't surprised at all. His daughter said that his third nephew radiated the same aura as those scientists who were qualified to attend state banquets.

Ma Lifeng feigned surprise and walked to the table, picking up the radio. "Really? You're not trying to fool me with a new one, are you?"

Ma Yanhua glared at him first, then pointed to the crack in the radio casing and said, "There's a crack here."

"You can put the old radio casing onto the new radio."

Ma Yanhua glanced at him and then started disassembling the radio.

A moment later, Ma Yanhua opened it. "Do you want it new or old?"

Ma Lifeng examined it carefully. "It's old. Install it and let me see if it works."

"OK."

After he finished assembling it, Ma Lifeng tested it. "Great! Ma Yanlin, you don't need to get beaten up. Big brother, sister-in-law, have you thought about letting Yanhua make weapons? I think Yanhua has a real talent for this. If we had weapons as good as theirs when we fought the Americans, we definitely wouldn't have lost so many lives."

Ma Lihan: "..." His second son has a talent for making weapons?!

Xie Ange: "..." Her second son can only fix radios, right?

Ma Yanhua: "..." He also has a talent for making weapons? How come he didn't know? His uncle thinks too highly of him, doesn't he?

Ma Yanqing: "..." Is her third brother really that amazing?

Little Bowl clapped her hands and shouted, "I don't have to get beaten up anymore! Third Brother, you're so awesome!"

Ma Lihan: "Go work at the arsenal after you graduate." He knew all too well what weapons meant to soldiers and to the country. Even if his third brother was wrong, he wanted to give it a try.

Ma Yanhua: "..." He only fixed a radio, didn't he? "I want to join the army."

"We don't lack manpower right now."

Ma Yanhua: "..."

Xie Ange glanced at the radio on the table, then at his second son. "Yes! Everyone's scrambling to join the army these days."

Ma Yanqing also glanced at the radio on the table. "Go, Third Brother!"

Little Bowl shouted, "Go, Third Brother! You're amazing, Third Brother!"

Ma Lifeng sat down next to Ma Yanhua, put his arm around his shoulder, looked at him and smiled, "Don't feel pressured. You can work at the arsenal for two years first. If you find out that your uncle was wrong, then it's not too late to join the army."

Little Bowl: "Yes! Go, Third Brother! You're amazing, Third Brother!"

"Alright... alright then." If he can build something powerful, it will indeed reduce casualties.

And that's how it was settled.

Ma Lifeng looked at Xiao Wanwan smugly. Meaning: Aren't I awesome, your dad?

Little Bowl pretended not to see. "Auntie, I want to sleep with you tonight." In two more years, she won't be able to live in the same room as her grandfather and her uncles.

Xie Ange wanted to put the little bowl down again after hearing this. "Alright, alright. Ma Lihan, you go sleep in the study. You can snore."

Upon hearing this, Xiaowan quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay, Grandpa snores at night too."

Xie Ange was still worried. "Are you really alright?"

Just as Xiao Wanwan was about to say "It's really nothing," Ma Lifeng said, "Don't even mention snoring, even thunder wouldn't bother her. She was born in the Year of the Pig."

You're the one born in the Year of the Pig. "Mm."

Now, Ma Lihan also wanted to cover the small bowl up.

The next day, after finishing breakfast, Ma Lifeng went to find his friends.

The person who greeted him with a smile yesterday glared at him the moment they saw him today.

Ma Lifeng was puzzled. "Is your eyelid twitching?"

"You're the one who's having a spasm! You got married, and then you had a daughter who's so beautiful, smart, and adorable. Do you know that as soon as I got home last night, my mom started pressuring me to get married again and give her a granddaughter?"

"Do you know that my mom specially steamed a pot of cornbread for me this morning? She said if I don't get married, I'll only be able to eat cornbread in the future."

Ma Lifeng: "..." Were his other friends also being pressured to get married? Were they also only eating cornbread? "Ahem! Well, you're over twenty now, it's time to get married."

"What? You're in your twenties? I'm only twenty-one! Twenty-one!"

He had barely finished speaking when several young men walked towards them. They quickened their pace as soon as they saw Ma Lifeng.

"Ma Xiaosan! Did you do this on purpose?"

"Ma Xiaosan! You've really ruined us!"

"Ma Xiaosan! I'm breaking off all ties with you!"

"Ma Xiaosan! Don't run away!"
