Reborn in 70, I took down the rough guy husband

Chapter 887: Return the Dowry

As soon as Duan Mingjie came back, Lu Yao ran over and asked, "Have you seen Mingming?"

"seen."

Looking at Duan Mingjie's face which was as pale as charcoal, Lu Yao frowned, "What did she say?"

Duan Mingjie repeated Duan Mingming's words verbatim.

Lu Yao: "..."

"Obviously something has happened. Her attitude can't change so quickly."

Isn't that her character?

Duan Mingjie certainly knew that Duan Mingming had her own difficulties, but she was unwilling to say it.

And he looked to be in good health, with no serious injuries.

"Why don't you ask Big Brother?"

Duan Mingjie snorted, "Big brother probably already knew about this. Look, big brother will definitely not come back tonight."

Duan Mingjie actually guessed right. The two of them waited until ten o'clock, but Duan Minghua did not come home.

Duan Mingjie laughed angrily.

Lu Yao: "Then what are you going to do? Are you really going to return the betrothal gift?"

What would Tang Long’s parents think?

Duan Mingjie said angrily, "I really want to return it to them!"

Lu Yao stretched out her hand to calm him down, "Alright, alright, don't be angry. It must have been a last resort. What does Tang Long mean?"

"He hasn't told his family yet."

Lu Yao: "That means you can't bear to let Mingming go. Let's wait for a while and see Mingming's attitude."

Duan Mingjie hummed, "Everyone of them makes me worry!"

Lu Yao teased him deliberately, "Am I still better?"

Duan Mingjie put his arm around her smooth shoulders and said, "My wife is still the best."

Lu Yao rested her head on his chest, caressing him with her soft fingertips, "Okay, I'll coax you and you won't be angry anymore."

Duan Mingjie held her hand, turned over and pressed her down, then bent down and bit her little mouth.

"Come on, coax her well."

Lu Yao hugged his neck, her eyes seductive, "So shall I start coaxing you?"

Duan Minghua didn't come back after that day until the day before Duan Zhiwei and Duan Yanyan started school, when he finally went home.

Duan Minghua called his family together to discuss something important.

"Third brother, our special forces are leaving the capital."

Hearing this, Lu Yao and Duan Mingjie were both stunned.

Duan Yanyan was stunned for a second, then burst into tears.

She hugged Duan Minghua's neck, "Dad, don't leave!"

Duan Zhiwei clenched his fists and remained silent for a long time.

Duan Mingjie frowned, "When are we leaving?"

"Not sure yet. I'll be back to the army soon."

Lu Yao: "When can you come back?"

Duan Zhiwei stared at Duan Minghua closely.

Duan Minghua looked at the two children, hardened his heart, and said, "I don't know."

Duan Mingjie: "Can we go see you?"

Duan Minghua: "It's too far, and the troops can't just come in casually. I'll call you when I have time."

Duan Mingjie didn't ask how far it was, probably because it was a military secret.

Recalling something, Duan Mingjie asked, "Zhiwei and Yanyan, can you follow me?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Duan Mingjie didn't ask any more questions.

Duan Yanyan burst into tears and hugged Duan Minghua's neck tightly, "Dad, I don't want you to leave."

Duan Minghua hugged Duan Yanyan and said, "Yanyan, listen to your uncle and aunt at home. I will come back to see you when I have time."

Duan Yanyan kept shaking her head, "I don't want it, I don't want it!"

Duan Zhiwei stepped forward and pulled Duan Yanyan over, and said to Duan Minghua, "Dad, you go, I will take good care of Yanyan."

Duan Minghua looked at his son deeply and felt extremely guilty.

He failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father.

He looked at Lu Yao and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm going to trouble you again with the two children."

Lu Yao pursed her lips and said, "Brother, we are a family and we don't have to worry about any trouble. Let alone two children, we can take care of two more. We are just worried about you."

Lu Yao never felt that it was troublesome to take care of Zhiwei and Yanyan. The two children had grown up and were very sensible, so she didn't have to worry about them much. She also liked the two children very much.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Duan Minghua left without taking anything, and Duan Mingjie chased him out.

Duan Minghua stopped at the gate and turned around. "Old Three, find a time to return Mingming's betrothal gift."

Duan Mingjie frowned, "Is this Mingming's decision?"

Duan Minghua: "It was Mingming's decision, and it was also my decision."

Duan Mingjie: “Why?”

"Just do as I say."

"Then do you know that once the betrothal gift is returned, it will be difficult for her to marry Tang Long again? Tang Long didn't even tell his family."

Duan Minghua choked up, "They are not suitable for each other."

Without waiting for Duan Mingjie to say anything, Duan Minghua continued, "Old Third, I'm sorry to entrust the two children to you again. In this life, I am destined to owe you two. After I retire, I will repay you well."

After saying that, Duan Minghua turned around and strode away.

"Big brother!"

Duan Mingjie called out behind him.

Duan Minghua did not stop, opened the door of the jeep and got in, and soon the jeep disappeared into the night.

Duan Mingjie was upset and angrily kicked the ground, making a hole.

Thinking of Zhiwei and Yanyan, Duan Mingjie returned home.

Yanyan hugged Lu Yao and cried until her eyes were red and swollen. Lu Yao kept patting her back to comfort her, but it was of no use.

Duan Yanyan never received love from her father or mother since she was a child. After her father finally came back, she was not happy for a few years before her father passed away again.

Lu Yao: "Yan Yan, believe me, your father will definitely come back."

Duan Yanyan cried out loudly, "Is my dad going to die again?"

"Nonsense." Lu Yao whispered to comfort her, "It's a peaceful time now, and there's no war. What are you thinking about? Your father has been transferred to other areas in compliance with orders. He will come back to see you when he settles down. Let's wait for him at home."

Duan Zhiwei came over and pulled Duan Yanyan over to hug her, "Yanyan, don't cry. Our father is a hero who defended our country. We should be proud of him. Our father is lucky and will not die. He will definitely come back to see us. Don't cry anymore."

Lu Yao looked at the boy who matured too early and sighed slightly.

Duan Mingjie came over and said, "It's getting late, let's go to bed."

As he said that, Duan Mingjie looked at Duan Yanyan, "Yanyan, sleep with us later."

Lu Yao hugged Duan Yanyan and said, "Sleep with me and your uncle tonight, okay?"

Duan Yanyan hugged Lu Yao's waist and nodded slightly.
