Xia Lan's words deeply moved these soldiers.

"I'm so happy to have met such an understanding female comrade for the first time!"

The captain's eyes also reddened. Look at Xia Lan's awareness, attitude, and thoughts.

"So you're the old squad leader!"

"Good morning, class monitor!"

The captain looked at Qin Yu beside him and knew from his imposing presence that he must have been someone extraordinary before. He saluted Qin Yu.

The soldiers behind him also saluted Qin Yu along with their captain.

"Serve the people."

Qin Yu returned the greeting with a bow.

When they looked at Xia Lan again, the captain and the others became much more friendly.

"Where are you headed? Our unit just happened to arrive by car, we'll give you a ride!"

The captain stepped forward enthusiastically and spoke to Qin Yu and the others.

Is it convenient?

Qin Yu looked at the captain and did not refuse.

Xia Lan glanced at Qin Yu in surprise. After Qin Yu spoke with the captain for a while, he nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble you! Give us a ride."

"What are you saying, squad leader! We'd love to hear that!"

The captain was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward to take the luggage from Qin Yu's hands. Seeing this, several soldiers behind him immediately rushed forward to snatch the luggage.

"..."

Qin Yu glanced at them, his eyes narrowing.

The soldiers felt a chill run down their spines and immediately and obediently handed the luggage back to Qin Yu.

Xia Lan chuckled, and Tuan Tuan in her arms looked excitedly at the soldier.

"Sister-in-law, can I...give you a hug?"

Looking at Tuantuan's adorable appearance, a soldier slowly walked forward and asked cautiously.

"hug!"

Tuantuan reached out to the soldier to hold her, but Xia Lan hesitated for a moment. The soldier quickly took Tuantuan from him, and Tuantuan climbed onto his body and tried to climb onto his shoulder.

"She wanted to ride high."

Xia Lan roughly understood Tuan Tuan's intention and explained with a smile.

"It means letting her sit on your shoulders."

Qin Yu explained to the soldiers.

The soldier quickly put down his luggage and carefully placed Tuantuan on his shoulder.

"Hahahaha..."

Tuantuan waved her little hands happily.

Yuanyuan, nestled in Xiao Yuqin's arms, looked at Tuantuan with envy.

"Auntie, let me show him to a seat!"

Another soldier saw Yuanyuan like this and quickly stepped forward.

Xiao Yuqin smiled and looked at Yuanyuan.

Yuanyuan thought for a moment and then reached out her hand to the soldier.

She was able to sit on his shoulders as she wished.

Let's go!

The captain smirked, and seeing that most of the other guests had left, he led them out of the gate.

Xia Lan and Xiao Yuqin were seated in the front, while Qin Yu took the two little ones and sat in the back of the vehicle with the soldiers.

The military vehicles carrying soldiers set off in a grand procession.

All the way, Xia Lan could hear Tuan Tuan's laughter behind her. The soldiers were amused by Tuan Tuan and laughed heartily. They were all great cheerleaders, making the child completely lose her bearings.

"This girl really loves the military!"

Xiao Yuqin sighed.

People say that girls are quiet, but these two siblings are the opposite.

The older sister likes lively atmospheres, while the younger brother prefers quiet.

The two little ones are twins, a boy and a girl, but they have completely different personalities.

"Absolutely! I've never seen such an adorable doll before!"

The soldier driving the car couldn't help but nod. When he saw how cute Tuantuan was, he even wished he had a daughter like her.

So cute!

Most importantly, Tuantuan is not afraid of them at all.

The other children would avoid them when they saw these soldiers.

Otherwise, they would cry out of fear.

Unlike Tuantuan, who craves hugs from them.

When they got on the bus, they took turns holding Tuantuan, and everyone was in a good mood.

In Shanghe Village, many aunts and daughters-in-law still sit at the village entrance, gossiping about whose family it is.

Life here is peaceful, day after day, without any major upheavals.

At most, they would talk about the Li family's affairs, the Wang family's affairs, who stole vegetables, and who lost eggs.

A large military green truck slowly drove into the village, and everyone blinked curiously and immediately stood up to watch the spectacle.

The military vehicle drove into the village. Last time it was because of the Qin family's matter. What is it that has come to the village this time?

They looked around curiously, waiting for the military vehicle to stop so they could ask for directions, but the military vehicle drove right past them.

The village children shouted excitedly and chased after the car.

Everyone then saw the military vehicle stop in front of Qin Yu's house.

"No way? Qin Yu is back?"

"Why would you abandon a perfectly good life and run back from the city?"

"Isn't that an idiot?"

"Could it be Qin Yu?!"

"Let's go, let's go see for ourselves and we'll find out!"

The group headed towards Qin Yu's house, and when they arrived, Qin Yu jumped out of the car.

Then several soldiers jumped down and carried Tuantuan and Yuanyuan off the carriage, letting the two little ones sit on their shoulders.

Qin Yu took out the key and opened the long-sealed door.

Xia Lan and Xiao Yuqin were helped out of the car. Xiao Yuqin looked at Qin Yu's yard with surprise and delight.

She had expected to live in one of those mud houses, but to her surprise, her son's house was a brick house, and a newly built one at that.

A surge of pride immediately welled up inside me.

Xia Lan was about to draw water from the well to tidy up her house when the team leader got out of the car and saw that Qin Yu's house had clearly been uninhabited for a long time.

"gather!"

"A temporary task: help your sister-in-law clean this place!"

"yes!"

The captain clapped his hands, and the soldiers, without saying a word, immediately began their work in a well-trained manner.
