He wanted to protect her, just like he did when he was a kid.
He helped her drive away the chubby boy who bullied her at the village entrance, saying that nobody could bully her sister anymore.
He helped her pick the sour dates on the tree and said If she needed to do something dangerous, she should ask him to do it for her.
Nanny Xu came back to her senses and suddenly said to her son: “Alright, I won't stop you, you can join the army. As long as you are determined to take the young lady back to live with us in the future, then Mother also believes that you won't be messing around and will abide by the rules properly."
"Mother?" Xu Zhengyong turned around abruptly and looked at Nanny Xu in surprise.
"As promised, remember, you joined the military not only to protect your country, not just for fame and fortune, but also for our family. You have a mother that worries about you, and you have a sister waiting for you. After you have established some achievements, you can take her home to live with us." Nanny Xu warned.
"Mother, don't worry, I'll remember! I'll keep it all firmly in my heart!" Xu Zhengyong firmly assured her.
Then Xu Zhengyong looked at his father.
Xu Zhushan had no objections at all, as long as his wife had no objections, then so did he.
His son’s idea was great and he also supported it.
Wei Ruo looked away silently, not wanting the nanny and the others to see her red eyes.
Really, she wasn’t the type to cry, why was her eyes turning red?
At such times, she should smile happily. Why are her eyes becoming red!
Damn it, she just couldn’t help it……
After returning from Sibaozhai, Wei Ruo pulled Xiumei into her small warehouse.
"Miss, what are you looking for?" Xiumei wanted to help but didn't know where to start.
"I don't know exactly what is needed, so I think I will choose something that comes in handy. Brother Xiaoyong is going to join the army, and I need to make a self-defense item for him."
Although she supported Brother Xiaoyong's ambition, she was worried about his safety.
So she wanted to prepare a useful gift for Brother Xiaoyong before he went to serve as a soldier.
"That’s right! Then I'll help Miss look for something durable!" Xiumei understood Wei Ruo's meaning and immediately joined the search.
As she searched, Wei Ruo suddenly stopped.
Xiumei: "Miss, what's wrong?"
Wei Ruo: "I thought of that crossbow."
Xiumei: "Crossbow?"
Wei Ruo: "At the army, Brother Xiaoyong is joining the team that defends the city against the Pirates Invaders. If I could upgrade some weapons in the army, would it also be a way to protect Brother Xiaoyong?"
Xiumei: "That's for sure!"
Wei Ruo: "Can you continue to find me durable materials from the things that I’ve brought? I'll return to my room first."
After returning to her room, Wei Ruo took out paper and pen and began to draw the blueprint.
If you made a detachable quiver, similar to ammunition clips, directly mounted on a crossbow, you could theoretically increase the firing frequency of the quiver by shooting one quiver and replacing it with another.
Xiumei didn't find anything useful in the warehouse, and when she returned to her room, she saw the drawings Wei Ruo was working on.
"Miss, what is this? Is it a crossbow?"
"Yes, it's a crossbow. I tried it when I went to the training ground last time, but it didn't work well. At that time I thought that if it could be improved, it would be more powerful. But I didn't have much interest in interfering with the Wei family's affairs, so I didn't do anything.
Now that Brother Xiaoyong is going to be a soldier, I think of this thing. If I don’t have the resources to make effective defense armor for now, then I'll make some more powerful weapons. Offensive is the best defense."
"That would be great, as long as we are strong enough, the enemy won't be able to harm Brother Xiaoyong!" Xiumei said happily.
He helped her drive away the chubby boy who bullied her at the village entrance, saying that nobody could bully her sister anymore.
He helped her pick the sour dates on the tree and said If she needed to do something dangerous, she should ask him to do it for her.

Man, sometimes I wonder which brother is the first minister in the synopsis. I want this adoptive brother to do really well.
