Daily training will be grueling, and in times of war, soldiers like you will be on the front lines. Theres a real risk of losing your life or being used as bait. Arent you afraid of that? Shao Yunduan questioned.
Even if I become an officer as an Advanced Scholar, from a Recommended man, I may not be able to help you. Besides, the army doesnt consider where youre from. Your fate will depend solely on your own actions once youre there. Are you still determined to join the army?
Shao Xiaoqi was taken aback, but his hesitation only lasted for a moment before he nodded. Fifth Brother, Im not afraid. I want to join the army. I feel the need to do something meaningful with my life, or Ill regret it in the future. With you and Fifth Sister-in-law at home, I wont fear anything or have anything to be afraid of. Thats enough for me!
Shao Yunduan chuckled. Youre just a kid. What do you understand about the things adults talk about? Dont worry about our family.
Shao Xiaoqi smiled sheepishly.
Dont answer me so hastily. Take some rest and think it over. The recruitment process wont be completed so quickly. The deadline is still a few days away. Take a couple of days to ponder on it and let me know then.
Shao Xiaoqis eyes brightened. He added, Fifth Brother, l . . .
No more words for now. Pretend I havent heard anything. Go and contemplate. Dont make any impulsive decisions.
Qi, this is your life, and 1 wont interfere. But you must take responsibility for your choices and think through them thoroughly. Remember, you have loving parents and siblings who genuinely care about you.
Tears welled up in Shao Xiaoqis eyes as he nodded.
Shao Xiaoqi quietly retreated to his own room to avoid his mothers scolding.
Shao Yunduan contemplated something else in the study before gathering his thoughts and heading to his parents.
Ms. Fang anxiously inquired, Did you stop him? Where is he?
Dont worry, mom! Shao Yunduan reassured her with a smile. l explained everything to him and gave him two more days to think it over. Mom and dad, lets not keep nagging about this. Lets wait and see.
Ms. Fang declared, 1 will never agree to this. Hes not going anywhere. I will keep him confined to a room until the recruitment period passes. I will definitely put a stop to it!
Qiao Xuan remained silent, observing the conversation.
Shao Sanlang rubbed his hands together and enthusiastically agreed, stating it was a brilliant idea. They should indeed do that.
Shao Yunduan sighed helplessly. Qi is a grown man, not an object to be controlled. It wouldnt be fair to confine him.
l dont care. I am his mother, and Im doing this for his own good! Ms. Fang retorted.
However, she cast a skeptical glance at Shao Yunduan. Duan, tell me, did you agree with his decision?
Shao Sanlang chimed in, Mom, of course not. Fifth Brother would never be so unreliable.
Shao Dalang nodded in agreement. Absolutely, Fifth Brother is always level-headed.
Qiao Xuan pondered for a moment, then winked at Shao Yunduan with a smile.
Shao Yunduan rubbed his nose and cleared his throat. Regardless, mom, dont worry. Qi will do just fine!
Ms.. Fang sighed and muttered, l still cant shake off this uneasy feeling in my heart
