The morning mist has not yet dissipated and the sky is dim.

After breakfast, the two of them got back on the road and stopped the car in front of their home at noon.

Shen Xingzhou looked at the locked courtyard door, “Xiaoxiao, do you have a key?”

"Yes," Fu Xiao opened the car door and got out, took the key out of his bag and opened the door.

Shen Xingzhou walked into the storehouse and took a look. The firewood was not enough to last through the winter.

Fu Xiao went into his room and took out all the bedding from the closet to dry in the sun.

"Chen Xingzhou, do you want to go to the next room and take out the quilt from your room to dry it in the sun?"

"Well, I'll go right away..."

Shen Xingzhou walked out of the warehouse, looked at her and said, “I’ll go to the next door to clean up first, wait a while and we’ll go out for dinner together…”

"Wait for me, I'll go with you..."

Fu Xiao locked the door again and followed him to the next room. No one had lived there for a long time, so every room was covered in dust. She followed Shen Xingzhou to the bedroom where he slept and frowned as she looked inside. "There's not even a table?"

Shen Xingzhou chuckled: “I haven’t lived here for a few times, so I’m not prepared.”

"But there's not even a fire wall here. You won't be able to survive in the winter. Don't clean it up. We have a guest room next to the fire wall. You can stay there."

He ruffled her hair, his brows full of smiles: "If others see it, they will gossip."

Fu Xiao raised his eyebrows. "You can make a hole in the corner of the wall, go home as usual at night, and enter the house from our backyard. No one will know."

Shen Xingzhou laughed: "How come you are so smart?"

She raised her chin and said, "That's right, we just happen to be running low on firewood. Don't forget to prepare some firewood today."

"good..."

He touched her cheek and said, "Let's go outside and bask in the sun first. I'll dry the bedding... We'll go out for dinner after that."

"Okay,"

Shen Xingzhou took all the bedding in the cabinet to dry in the sun. Fu Xiao came closer and smelled it, "Huh, that's strange, your quilt has been left for such a long time, and it hasn't gotten moldy..."

He turned around and looked at her and smiled: "I asked Uncle Mu's guards to help me dry it every few months. The weather here is not that humid, and the room doesn't leak, so how could it get moldy..."

After drying, the two walked out the door, "It's cold, shall we have some hot pot?"

Fu Xiao nodded in agreement: "After dinner, send me to the headquarters first."

"I see,"

It was already past one in the afternoon after lunch. Shen Xingzhou sent her to the entrance of the headquarters. "Go back. Collect the quilts according to the time. Oh, and prepare some firewood."

Shen Xingzhou said lightly, "Come home for dinner, I'll prepare it."

Fu Xiao leaned over and kissed him: "Thank you for your hard work..."

He smiled and moved the other half of his face closer, "Well, kiss this side too."

She kissed him again obediently, "Be obedient and go back."

Shen Xingzhou pulled her hat and said, "Go..."

Fu Xiao opened the car door and got out, waved to him, watched him reverse the car, and then walked towards the headquarters.

The guards at the door greeted her when they saw her: "Xiaoxiao is back..."

"Yes, Brother Wang, Brother Yang, it's your turn to be on duty today,"

"Yeah, it's been us two brothers lately,"

Fu Xiao smiled and waved at them, "Let's talk later. I'm going in first."

"Okay, I'll open the door for you."

On the way to the second floor, she met many people, all of whom smiled and nodded to her, or stopped to talk to her.

Going up to the office area on the second floor, it became much quieter.

Only occasionally there could be sounds of people discussing something in one or two rooms.

When she arrived at Mu Lianshen's office door, she knocked, but heard no response, so she pushed the door open and walked in.

Not seeing anyone, Fu Xiao walked to the desk in confusion. She heard heavy breathing coming from the lounge in the office. She gently pushed open the small door and saw Mu Lianshen lying on the small bed and sleeping.

She didn't go forward to disturb him, but carefully retreated, closed the door, sat in his office chair, picked up the newspaper beside her and started reading.

After finishing reading the newspaper, I picked up a pen and wrote and drew on a blank piece of paper.

"Lian Shen...is about to set off,"

At the office door, Wei Xuezhe knocked symbolically and walked in.

Seeing Fu Xiao sitting there, she widened her eyes in surprise, then smiled, "When did you get here, girl?"

Fu Xiao lowered his voice and said, "We just arrived a short time ago. Please keep your voice down. My dad is sleeping inside..."

"We can't let him sleep..." Wei Xue Ze raised his voice again, "Mu Lianshen, your daughter is here..."

Mu Lianshen inside opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, opened the small door and walked out, frowning at Fu Xiao, "Why didn't you call me when you came..."

Fu Xiao smiled and said, "I didn't yell because you were sleeping so soundly. Are you tired? You're snoring..."

Mu Lianshen rubbed her head and shook his head gently, "I'm not tired, it's just a lunch break."

"Where is the man who sank the boat?"

"Oh, he's cleaning up at home,"

Wei Xue Ze watched the loving father and filial daughter. Although it was a warm scene, he still had to interrupt. He knocked on the table and said, "Hey, I said... It's time to go..."

Fu Xiao stood up and asked, "Where are you going?"

"military region..."

She took Mu Lianshen's arm and said, "I want to go too... I want to see my little white horse."

Mu Lianshen smiled and patted her hands, "Okay, let's go..."

Wei Xue Ze looked at Fu Xiao, "Your white horse is not small anymore. It has been a few years. I am afraid you can't recognize it..."
