"Anyway, I'm not going. You all know that I'm the sort who can't carry weight on my shoulders or back. To enlist would be to throw away my life, not to mention my wife is pregnant and needs someone to care for her." Han Lin was always fond of shirking his duties, and at this juncture, he was even less likely to volunteer.
"What do you mean no one is there to take care of her? Who provides for your wife's food and drink every day? What have you actually done? I don't know how our old Han family ended up with such a lazy bum. Even if you were conscripted, you'd just cause trouble. Camp discipline is much stricter than home, and no one will be able to save you then. Still, since you are my son, I cannot bear to send you. The selection will have to come from one of your other three brothers."
