India's quarantine action this time came to nothing.
When Xie Wan was free, he and Qin Muye went there for a day trip a few times and found that the Lions had already changed their guard.
It is estimated that the weapons were looted again, and even the Indian military felt that it was not appropriate to let the Lion Regiment guard the border again.
The new troops learned from previous lessons and became much calmer.
The Karmanita Temple outside the Lion Regiment’s base was suddenly very popular, and believers from all over the country rushed there to worship.
Even the Samsara Buddha worshipped in Kensang Village was moved into the temple.
A legend quietly spread among believers, some people said that the Samsara Buddha was actually an incarnation of the goddess Karmanita. Of course, it is unknown who spread this rumor.
Qin Muye looked at his wife, who was wearing a belly-exposing outfit and wrapped in colorful scarves. He wanted to make some suggestions but didn't dare to. He could only take off his military uniform and wrap it around her belly.
"Xiao Wan, the weather is cold, don't let our son get cold."
Xie Wan wanted to scold Qin Muye for being feudal, but when she saw his still flat belly, her eyes immediately softened and she said coquettishly, "How do you know it's a son?"
In September, the children in the family quarters started going to school.
There is no school in the regiment, so all the children have to go to school in Linzhi. They live on campus during the week and can only come back on weekends. The family area immediately became a lot quieter.
Suddenly one day, sad funeral music was heard on the radio, and the whole of China was plunged into grief.
As a person who traveled from later times, it was difficult for Xie Wan to understand the deep feelings that people of this era had for the elderly, but she was also moved by this mournful atmosphere and began to shed tears.
The depressing atmosphere continued until the beginning of the following year.
Although the movement had not been explicitly declared over at this time, the Four-Man Gang had been arrested, fewer people were convicted for their speech, winter passed quietly, and new buds sprouted on the branches.
Xie Wan opened the door with her seven-month-old belly and found that there were guests at home.
Qin Muye was busy cooking in the kitchen, while Chu Jiangnan was walking around the yard with his hands behind his back as if he was patrolling his territory.
"Eh? Captain Chu, how come you have time to come and see us?"
Xie Wan was still very happy to see Chu Jiangnan.
She has been pregnant for seven months, and Qin Muye now doesn't allow her to go to the outpost or run around. She feels like she is going crazy from being idle.
Chu Jiangnan usually doesn't come to visit someone without a reason. If he comes, he must have work to do.
Chu Jiangnan's eyes first fell on Xie Wan's belly, his eyebrows and eyes immediately bloomed, and he said with a smile: "Can't I come all the way to see my godson?"
Xie Wan put her hands on her waist, stroking her bulging belly, went into the house to put down her bag, and came out, pretending to be polite: "Hey, Captain Chu is a distinguished guest, Qin Muye, you have to treat him to a whole roasted lamb, right?"
Qin Muye grinned. It was not that his family couldn't afford a whole roasted lamb, but that it was too troublesome to make one, and he didn't have the skills to do it.
However, he still followed his wife's words and continued, "Sorry for the delay. We don't have enough time today. Let Lao Chu stay here for one more day and I'll prepare one for you tomorrow."
Xie Wan felt that her husband didn't understand what she meant, so she walked to the kitchen with a cuckold step and sighed, "Sure, Qin Muye, you're going to spend all our family's monthly savings on this meal, right?
That's how it should be, Captain Chu is our best friend, we have to treat him well even if it means we lose everything we have."
Qin Muye reacted and helped Xie Wan back to the recliner in the yard like he was serving an old Buddha. He agreed, "That's a must. The conditions on this plateau are harsh. It's only in spring that we can still eat some vegetables.
Today I used my meat coupons to trade for lettuce from Zhang's wife next door. Lettuce is very valuable here. I'll give it all to Captain Chu."
Chu Jiangnan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pointed at the couple and cursed, "You are just bad guys. You knew I was short of meat in Sichuan Province, but you first tempted me with a roasted whole lamb, and then you gave me a table of lettuce to cheat me. No, I know it's hard for you to get vegetables here, but meat is much easier to get than outside. Give me some meat dishes!"
The three of them laughed, and Xie Wan said, "Wait a minute, I'll go out for a while and bring you a leg of lamb."
That night, Chu Jiangnan ate stir-fried mutton, grilled mutton, and drank mutton soup. He was satisfied and drank a pound of highland barley wine with Qin Muye. He said happily, "I haven't eaten meat so happily for a long time. You two are smart to come to this paradise to enjoy it."
Xie Wan and Qin Muye exchanged glances.
Qin Muye immediately sighed in frustration: "Look at what you said, only when you come here can we indulge ourselves. There are many cattle and sheep here, but they are herdsmen's, how can you eat whatever you want. And there are really no vegetables to eat here. Haven't you seen that my wife has boils on her lips?
When I think of my little son and how many boils have grown in my wife's belly, my heart is in agony!"
Xie Wan also stroked her belly and complained, "I am now very worried about my son's intelligence. There is a lack of oxygen here, and I don't know if it will affect the development of the fetus."
I thought Chu Jiangnan would comfort or refute them, but Chu Jiangnan nodded in agreement: "That's right, I think Xiaowan is about to give birth, and the medical conditions here are poor. Although she is a doctor, she can't deliver her own baby, right?
I have specially found a good job that is very suitable for Xiao Wan's situation. I want to let my godson go to the glamorous world of capitalism and live a luxurious life for a few days. How do you think? "
The couple rolled their eyes at the same time, and Qin Muye shouted, "Old Chu, even the landlords and rich people don't order their farmhands around like you do. Look carefully, my wife is going to give birth in two months, and you actually want her to go on a mission, are you still human?"
