The man with eagle eyes practically fled in panic. He was afraid that once he sat down, he wouldn't want to move. But that was someone else's home, not his. Could he give warmth once and then countless times?

He quickly packed his things, took some dry rations, and set off with a few brothers. When the brothers heard that there was a mission, they all had relaxed smiles on their faces.

There's no way to change it in a short time; the trauma from before is too deep.

But to be honest, Hawkeye was actually a little excited. They were a strange bunch; they weren't used to a peaceful life!

Seeing the hawk-eyed man walk away, Yao Yanxin asked curiously, "He clearly wanted to stay, so why didn't he?"

"I know that. He's afraid that if he stays, he'll crave the taste of home!"

"The taste of home?"

"Yes, the taste of home!"

Yao Yanxin couldn't understand this point with Ruan Shengpeng, who had been wandering outside for more than ten years and missed the taste of home every moment.

He understood Hawkeye's heart perfectly; it was a mixture of longing and repulsion!

"He looks about your age, is he still not married?"

"He used to be a key figure in the military region, but I don't know when he broke down. He was afraid to get married and hurt someone. Given the current situation, he'd probably rather be single than settle for less!"

Yao Yanxin didn't understand that feeling, so she put it down and put food on Xiao Gengwu's plate: "I called a few people to go and meet your mother. Your mother should be fine!"

No matter how high Xiao Gengwu's IQ is, his life experience is limited. He really didn't feel anything when his mother went out to do volunteer work before, but now that Aunt Yao has analyzed it, he is also a little scared!

Now that Yao Yanxin and Ruan Shengpeng had arranged for someone to meet them, he sincerely thanked them, saying, "Thank you, Aunt Yao, thank you, Uncle Ruan!"

Yao Yanxin patted Xiao Gengwu on the shoulder: "We're family, no need for formalities!"

This statement has a double meaning; the two families used to live together as one, but now they live separately.

But Xiao Gengwu and Yao Tongjia will become family in the future.

Thinking of this, Ruan Shengpeng felt aggrieved and coldly snorted. Marrying his precious daughter wouldn't be so easy!

After finishing their meal, Yao Tongxu automatically went to wash the dishes. Xiao Gengwu also helped clear the dishes and went in to wash them. Yao Tongjia realized that she hadn't helped with the chores yet, so she went in to help wash the dishes.

They always cooperated and divided the work; there was no rule that the woman should do more or the man should do less.

Xiao Gengwu hurriedly pushed her out: "Axu and I can wash up. What do you need to tell Aunt Yao? Go tell her quickly. She can only come over after graduating in a month!"

Yao Tongjia did indeed have many things to discuss with her mother, so she came out. Ruan Shengpeng was standing at the kitchen door when he saw his beloved daughter come out.

He nodded in satisfaction: "That's more like it. What are tall men and horses supposed to do if they don't work?" He deliberately raised his voice towards the end.

Yao Tongxu wasn't about to indulge Ruan Shengpeng: "And what about you?"

Ruan Shengpeng's tone softened slightly: "I'll help your mother with chores when I have time, but I've been quite busy lately!"

Yao Yanxin couldn't stand his inferior attitude: "Your father is still a division commander, he should help out when he has time!"

"Mom, you're still in charge of the workshop! Don't spoil him like that!"

Ruan Shengpeng: "......" This icy brat is indeed not as cute as a daughter. He completely forgot that he had just said that Yao Tongjia was like a little cotton-padded jacket soaking in water!

Yao Tongjia pulled her mother aside and explained the medicine to her: "The medicine I just brought is concentrated. You can add well water to it. This bucket can be used to add five buckets of well water."

Yao Yanxin was a little uncertain: "Will adding so much well water affect the results?"

Yao Tongjia said firmly, "No, absolutely not, Mom, you must add it, otherwise the effect will be too incredible and I'll be in danger!"

Upon hearing that her daughter was in danger, Yao Yanxin naturally agreed to whatever her daughter said: "I will definitely do as you ask, five more buckets it is!"

Seeing her mother's assurance, Yao Tongjia breathed a sigh of relief. She took out another powder: "I've improved the prescription. From now on, we'll use these powders. I'll teach you how to process them!"

Seeing that Yao Yanxin had prepared the medicine powder, Yao Tongjia instructed, "No matter who does this, you must not let anyone else do it, Mom, you must remember that!"

The recipe was a cover-up, and she wasn't afraid of others studying it, but she always wanted to maintain a sense of mystery!

After settling the matter of the medicine, Yao Yanxin asked hesitantly, "How are things going between you and your brother Xiao?"

"Nothing's wrong. We're still the same as before. We're still young, so don't worry!"

"Now that your father is back, if you two decide to be together, you must have a wedding ceremony again. You, you have to protect yourself!"

Yao Tongjia immediately understood: "We still need to take the college entrance exam, we won't do anything reckless!"

"Take the college entrance exam? Can we take it now?"

"Well, we weren't translating for Lao Pan before. He asked the principal to tell us that the college entrance examination would resume at the earliest by the end of the year, or at the latest by next year."

"Really? That's great!" Yao Yanxin had been worried about what her three children would do after graduating from high school.

Before that, Ruan Shengpeng asked if they wanted to transfer their household registration here.

She refused. All three children were registered in the countryside, so they didn't need to go to the countryside as educated youth; they were originally from the countryside.

She was just thinking that maybe she could send them to the workshop in a month. Although it would cause controversy, the children's affairs were the most important thing.

Now that the college entrance exam can be restarted, nothing is more important than this. She excitedly shouted, "Brother Peng, Brother Peng, good news! I heard the college entrance exam is going to be restarted!"

Ruan Shengpeng felt uneasy when he heard that the news came from Beijing. Although his grandfather had retired, he would still be invited to attend such meetings.

He didn't mention it when I called last time. Maybe the meeting hasn't started yet. But after it's over, the old man will definitely call to say that he knows the two children are in high school.

Ruan Shengpeng stood up: "I'm going to my office!"

"Aren't you taking a lunch break today?" You usually rest for an hour, why are you suddenly leaving today!

Ruan Shengpeng couldn't quite say that he was feeling uneasy: "I have some things to take care of today. It's okay, you guys chat. I'll be right back after I've finished. You guys can stay here tonight!"

Yao Tongjia nodded: "We'll stay here, but is there a place for us to stay?"

"Of course there are. I arranged everything beforehand. There are many rooms in this courtyard. I prepared one for your master and one for each of you three. Let's go take a look!"

Seeing the others excitedly looking at the room, Ruan Shengpeng hurried to his office, his hands trembling slightly. He had a premonition that something must have happened to the old man!

Otherwise, everyone else would have news circulating, it makes no sense that the old man wouldn't have any news at all!
