Less than an hour after Chen Xihua and her two siblings returned home, Chen Lao Er and Li Yumei also returned.
The two men strode into the house with the air of victors, looking as if they had won a battle.
"Xiao Wu, your grandparents and I have signed an agreement to support the elderly."
There are two main categories: basic living expenses and the total cost of medical treatment.
Actually, Chen Lao Er didn't understand much about these things, but his sister-in-law Wang Fen did, because of the agreement she drafted.
He wasn't afraid that his sister-in-law would write more or less, and he was even afraid that she would miss something and ask him for it later.
He'd heard Xiao Wu say a lot that problems that could be solved with money weren't really problems.
Moreover, he shared the same idea as Xiao Wu: whoever is responsible for the expenses incurred by the elderly should pay for them.
For example, as parents of six children, it's about tuition fees and living expenses.
Before the child graduates, he and his wife will have to pay for it.
As for Xiao Wu and the others, they have their own money and can casually give Xiao Jin some pocket money, that's a different story.
He wasn't very educated, but Chen Lao Er wasn't stupid either.
At this moment, he looked at Chen Xihua with a smile, his eyes pleading for praise.
"Xiao Wu..."
"Hmm, Dad did a good job tonight. Before I came back, I bought you a watch in Beijing and put it on your bedside table!"
Chen Xihua smiled slightly, offering appropriate encouragement.
"Oh dear, I was just saying I needed a watch, and Xiao Wu bought it for me. It just means Xiao Wu has to spend money again."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lao Er's legs instinctively began to move towards the room, but his upper body remained composed, feigning modesty and smiling politely at Chen Xihua.
Chen Xihua smiled and glanced at Li Yumei, who looked somewhat disappointed.
The old woman managed to maintain her smile as she entered the room, pretending to go to the bathroom.
"I also bought a women's gold necklace, which I put on your bedside table..."
A women's necklace! ? ?
"Five... Little Five, is this a gift for me? I have one too?" Li Yumei's eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief.
Her feet seemed glued to the ground; she stood rooted to the spot, motionless, and tilted her head to ask Chen Xihua a question.
Chen Xihua didn't explain, and Chen Xiuhua chuckled softly:
"Yes, Mom, Xiao Wu bought you a gift. I also prepared gifts for you and Dad. They're all in your room."
Chen Baohua boasted, "I have one too! My fifth sister bought me a pair of sneakers from a very famous brand!"
His fourth sister also gave him a gift, but he felt a little awkward about it.
He will really thank his fourth sister for giving him a set of college entrance exam review materials.
"What's wrong, Xiao Liu? You're not satisfied with the gift your fourth sister gave you? I was the one who asked her to buy it."
Chen Xihua raised her eyebrows and asked, while Chen Xiuhua glared at Chen Xiaoliu, telling him not to be ungrateful.
While shopping at the mall, Fourth Sister said she didn't know what to give as a gift, and Chen Xihua remembered a joke.
Are students who receive three sets of college entrance exam questions from five years of study happy, or happy?
"No, no, I couldn't be more satisfied." Chen Xiaoliu's expression instantly changed, turning into a funny, tearful expression.
Inside the room, Chen Lao Er and Li Yu Mei were happily looking at the gifts, while the three siblings chatted and laughed in the living room, and the sounds of fireworks and firecrackers could be heard from outside the window from time to time.
It's Lunar New Year's Eve again. While the Chen family is joyfully staying up to welcome the new year, they are also secretly worried about Chen Jinhua, who is away on a mission.
After traveling for a night and a half, Chen Jinhua finally returned to his unit on the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The mission is to quickly identify the infiltrated enemy agents and thwart their sabotage operations.
A few days later, while the whole of China was still celebrating the Spring Festival, in a remote mountain village ten kilometers away from a secret military industrial base, there was a small group of foreign students, about ten people.
On the surface, they appear to be exploring the wild environment and taking photos, but in reality, they have other purposes.
Not far away, five kilometers away, a special forces unit, comprised of three former and current champion soldiers, each leading five elite troops.
A calm and mature male voice said, "Golden Wolf, we'll move out tonight. I'll go first and lead the attack, you'll assist, and Falcon will cover the rear and flank us."
"Flying Tiger, you go first. Where do you want to go? Do you want to fly to the sky?"
"My older sister is several months pregnant, and it's twins! You still want to go first? You can play support!" A cheerful female voice said confidently.
“You don’t need to argue. I’m the bait, I’ll be the scout, Golden Wolf will assist, and Flying Tiger will cover the rear!” came another deep, magnetic male voice.
"Falcon, you were indeed the bait, but you've already left. You're no longer one of our people. You're the last one standing."
The woman interrupted him. Even if he left with a mission, she pretended not to recognize his identity and told him to be arrogant.
"And how about we decide based on our fighting strength?" the girl continued, explaining that it had already been decided that she would be in charge of this mission.
They were quite something; one of them thought he was her brother-in-law and wanted to make decisions on his own.
The other one is just pursuing her fifth child and also wants to disobey her orders. Should we fight again?
So indecisive, like a woman!
She knew those people were dangerous; they must have been trained by inhuman devils.
Furthermore, they may be carrying reassembled, advanced, and unknown foreign weapons.
The Mo family deserves to die. It's almost certain that the weapons and materials were provided by the Mo family through illegal channels.
The two men exchanged a helpless glance.
Although they looked down on each other, at this moment, a single glance was enough for them to reach a consensus and act according to the circumstances that night.
First, ensure that Golden Wolf is safe, then consider your own safety.
Aside from personal reasons, because of her family, but more importantly, because she is a rare and outstanding young ace in the military.
......
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the day to welcome the God of Wealth, a loud noise was heard in the deep mountains at dawn.
Chen Xihua received a special phone call early in the morning.
"Comrade Chen Xihua, this is Han Zhanlei. I know you are worried about your second sister, so I am calling the family to let them know."
Your second sister suffered a back injury from the explosion, but the doctor said she will recover well and it's nothing serious. She's already being treated at the military hospital.
"Hello, sir. Thank you. What about the others?"
Chen Xihua breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could recover, it meant that he wasn't seriously injured and could continue to stay in the army.
More importantly, as long as I'm alive, everything else is trivial.
"The others have injuries to their arms and thighs. But none of them are vital, and they can be treated and will be fine after a period of rest."
Han Zhanlei knew who she was asking about, so he answered her as well.
As she hung up the phone, Chen Xihua couldn't help but ask a question she shouldn't have: "Did they successfully complete their mission?"
"Yes, of course!"
Hearing the other party's relaxed and proud tone, Chen Xihua felt relieved.
