Thousands of miles away, at the border of country Y.

In the deep, dark jungle, the occasional bird song could be heard, and the leaves rustled in the wind; the jungle was completely silent.

Almost an hour later, a figure suddenly got up from the ground.

"Damn it, these cowards are hiding again. They're always hiding and peeking around, like they've grown a turtle shell. Come out, what are you waiting for? They're definitely gone."

As soon as he finished speaking, people emerged from the grass and trees nearby.

"Forget it, they probably won't come. Let's leave here first and find another opportunity. We'll have to catch them next time!"

The person speaking had a layer of black mud on his face and his clothes were tattered, making him look like a refugee.

Someone in the crowd sighed first, and then the atmosphere in the whole group became gloomy.

Today should be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Yes, they should be enjoying a warm bed with their wives and kids right now, but those monkeys are already here!"

"Those wretched monkeys are so inhuman! They make us run around here with them every day. It's infuriating!"

After the outburst of cursing, everyone's mind was still on home.

With the Mid-Autumn Festival just around the corner, the exhausted group determined that there was no immediate danger, so they simply lay down on the grass to rest, inevitably imagining how their families were celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The "refugee" who initially tried to stop his teammates remained silent until his teammates took the initiative to bring the topic to his side.

"Captain, why aren't you saying anything?"

Pei Songbai, who was mentioned, sighed. He showed no trace of the handsome "male lead" about him. Anyone you randomly picked up on the street would look more presentable than him.

He knew his mission. In the past, he had never regretted or complained about spending an entire day in the mud in order to capture the enemy, but this time he just didn't feel right.

Hearing his comrade ask, Pei Songbai sighed.

"I was just transferred to a new post, and I left my child and mother with my wife on the train. I don't know where she is now, or if she will be able to have a proper Mid-Autumn Festival."

"On the train?"

"Hasn't your sister-in-law arrived at the post yet?"

"Captain, you haven't even made arrangements at home yet?"

"If this happened to my wife, she would definitely explode and might not even want to stay with me anymore."

"What should we do with an orphan and a widow?"

"..."

Everyone started expressing their opinions, and the vice-captain, seeing that Pei Songbai's expression was a bit unpleasant, quickly spoke up to stop them.

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense! If you can speak, then speak; if you can't, then shut up!"

After reprimanding the others, he turned to persuade Pei Songbai.

"Captain, don't worry, the organization will definitely help your wife, there won't be any problems, just relax!"

Pei Songbai nodded without saying anything, his mind filled with what one of his teammates had just said: "Maybe they won't stay with me anymore."

Xia Wenhua's relationship with him was already unstable, and she even wanted to end up with him at one point. This time, he left too hastily due to his mission, leaving Xia Wenhua with a mess. Will Xia Wenhua still stay with him?

He doesn't know how his mother's illness is. He's not here, and Xia Wenhua has to take care of the children and take his mother to see the doctor. Can she manage all that by herself?

Pei Songbai had countless things he wanted to say, but under the concerned gazes of his comrades, he could only manage a forced smile.

"It's nothing, I was just wondering where your sister-in-law and her family are spending the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

...

While Pei Songbai was far away, he was still worried about his family. Xia Wenhua and Pei Ying had no time to worry about him right now.

People from all the work units have already left to prepare for the holiday. They had promised to spend the New Year at the Yin family's house, and now it's time for them to go.

Before they could get ready, Yin Ning and Yin Yu, who had already finished get off work, arrived at the Pei family's house.

"Auntie, we've come to pick you up."

"Hurry up, hurry up, everything is ready at home."

Girls are naturally thoughtful, and Yin Yu and Yin Ning had told each other in advance that they would come to pick up Pei Ying first so they could celebrate the festival together.

Pei Ying was already at ease, carrying the valuable gifts her daughter-in-law had carefully preserved.

Now that my niece has come to pick me up, the little bit of nervousness I felt earlier has disappeared.

"Okay, okay, we're all packed. Let's go now."

She carried her two children, told Xia Wenhua to carry the rest of the things, and gestured for Yin Ning and Yin Yu to go ahead.

"Auntie, why did you bring so much stuff? My dad will definitely say we're causing you trouble."

"That's right, we're such a close family, Auntie, you don't need to be so polite."

Yin Hua valued this younger sister highly. She, who rarely came home in the past, went to the hospital every day when Pei Ying was sick. The Yin sisters saw this clearly and naturally respected Pei Ying even more.

No matter how good her brother is, Pei Ying still has her own standards.

Everyone here is getting old and has their own families now. She has several grandchildren, so we must show them the proper etiquette.

She smiled but didn't respond to the Yin sisters' comments about gifts; instead, she asked about Madam Yin.

"Is your mom back? We didn't know what she liked, so we just prepared something casually."

"We're on our way, Auntie. My dad went to pick us up. He originally told us to wait until my mom came back before we all came to pick you up, but I thought it would be faster for us to come first, so my sister and I came first."

Yin Ning is always on the front lines, just like a nightingale. She is clearly very satisfied with her job as a purchasing agent, and she remains full of energy even after work.

"It's good that you're back."

Pei Ying responded and glanced back at Xia Wenhua.

Xia Wenhua gave her a reassuring look, which calmed her down, and she continued walking forward.

Meeting Yin's sister-in-law for the first time was quite a challenge for her.

Of course, this feeling only existed before Pei Ying arrived at the Yin family's house.

When they arrived at the Yin family's residence, Commander Yin had already brought them back, and the two of them were standing at the door waiting.

When Pei Ying and Xia Wenhua arrived, before Commander Yin could react, Madam Yin rushed forward.

A fleeting tear welled up in her eyes, and then she solemnly introduced herself to Pei Ying.

"Hello, little sister, I'm your sister-in-law, Lin Aiguo!"

Xia Wenhua followed a step behind Pei Ying, and looking at Lin Aiguo's attitude, she felt something was off.

Pei Ying's hand was grabbed by Lin Aiguo, and she felt Lin Aiguo's extraordinary enthusiasm, which made her somewhat bewildered.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Pei Ying had imagined meeting her sister-in-law countless times, considering all her temperaments, but this particular scene was completely unexpected.

After hearing Pei Ying's words, Lin Aiguo simply wiped away his tears and pointed to himself.

"I am Lin Aiguo. Don't you really recognize me?"

Pei Ying felt Lin Aiguo's enthusiasm and goodwill, and her tension gradually dissipated. She stared at Lin Aiguo intently for a while.

Unfortunately, she had never seen a person named Lin Aiguo in her memory. Now, looking at her sister-in-law, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, she couldn't match her with anyone from her memory.

Pei Ying shook her head: "Sister-in-law, don't joke with me, I really can't remember."
