"Xiao Xie, why did you come down from the mountain? Did you go to gather firewood?"
Han Shuyun, carrying a string of radish heads, had just turned the corner at the bridgehead when she caught a glimpse of a guy carrying a bundle of firewood.
"Auntie, I went on a patrol of the mountains and gathered some firewood. Are the children behaving well in class?"
He had a half-smile on his face, and Han Shuyun always felt that he knew something.
Shishi showed no remorse and went over to take the bunch of wild vegetables from his hand.
"They're very obedient and well-behaved. The children will also be gathering firewood this afternoon. I wonder if they'll gather one or two bundles?" Han Shuyun said with a smile.
"A bundle!" the kids shouted in unison, their loud voices conveying their determination to hand in their homework on time.
Xie Lin: ...How did he detect a slight hint of gunpowder?
He didn't follow the children after they left the gossip scene and was unaware of the homework assignments that followed.
He raised an eyebrow at Chen Xiao and asked.
Chen Xiao, an insider, smiled but remained silent. "Your own wife started it. If I tell you, I'm afraid you'll beat her up and it will affect your relationship."
They wouldn't tell him, so he had to ask his own wife.
Shishi always told him everything she knew, but she pulled him aside, away from her aunt, to make sure she couldn't hear.
"When Shishi went to listen to gossip, her aunt assigned homework. It had to be done at noon and handed in in the afternoon. If it wasn't done, she would have to chop two bundles of firewood."
"She thought we didn't know what the homework was, hehe, we have mouths, Chou Chou has already asked her classmates."
He skipped class and even took pride in it.
Xie Lin chuckled and squeezed her soft, smooth little hand.
"Deputy Regiment Commander Xie, Commander Xiao instructed that you come to his office when you return."
At the gate, a young soldier salutes and relays a message.
Xie Lin nodded and handed the firewood to Chen Xiao.
He wanted Shishi to go back with her aunt, and she was very enthusiastic, stuffing wild vegetables into her aunt's arms and naturally taking his hand.
Then he summoned Chou Chou and Xiao Shi to his side and said in a serious tone:
"Auntie, little brothers, you all go back first. Shishi is going to see if she has any more tasks. Sigh, Shishi is so busy."
Xie Lin: ...It seems the commander recruited me, not you.
Chen Xiao: ...Anyone who didn't know better would think you were a battle-hardened warrior.
Han Shuyun pursed her lips, suppressing a laugh. She was already used to her niece's unusual thought process.
The younger brothers were nothing but envious.
"Your Majesty, we await your safe return."
The Queen waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I guarantee they'll return unharmed."
Xie Lin stroked his forehead.
Honey, we're just going to the office, not going on a mission.
As Shishi led the three into the camp, she habitually looked towards the training field.
Huh?
"Hey, that injured female soldier and Xiao Fanzi are arguing. Is Xiao Fanzi going to marry her?"
? ? ?
"where?"
"Training ground."
Xie Lin glanced at the training field and saw Lu Fan and Yue Yue arm wrestling with great effort, while Zhang Dong and the others cheered them on.
Normally, Yue Yue's left shoulder was injured, so Lu Fan should have been able to easily pin her down.
It's estimated that she was born with great strength. Lu Fan had been baptized by supernatural energy, and he was actually on par with her.
"That's Comrade Yue. They're just arm wrestling normally. There's no need for them to get married."
"So there are normal and abnormal tug-of-war situations, huh?"
Xie Lin: ......
"Dad, Shishi's here. What's her task?"
The person arrived before the voice.
Xiao Zheng, standing at the door, twitched his lips.
The little darling has taken it upon himself to go out with the group several times.
A guard was standing next to her. He didn't recognize Shishi and thought she was some kind of heroic soldier.
He admired all brave soldiers, regardless of gender or age.
"Comrade Zheng, what rank is she? Our Company Commander Yue looks higher than her, so she should be the deputy company commander, right?"
Xiao Zheng licked his dry lips, chuckled twice, and then shook his head. "She's not a soldier."
The guard was dumbfounded.
Why would someone who isn't a soldier need to do missions?
He was full of questions, and Xiao Zheng couldn't just explain it casually. The commander's daughter was a protected person, the camp's precious treasure, and some things were better left unsaid.
"Hey bro, thirsty?"
They were all smart people; they understood immediately what the change of topic meant. The guard shook his head and didn't ask any more questions, but he became more curious about the little girl who ran into the house.
When Shishi jumped into the house, she found that not only her own father was there, but also Uncle Ding and Xingxing's father, and there was another person she didn't recognize.
"Dad, Uncle Ding, Xingxing's Dad, good afternoon."
She really couldn't tell if this was an uncle or an elder brother.
"Good afternoon, honey."
Yue Yongjun spat out a mouthful of tea, his face filled with horror.
"The child's father?"
Although Ding Youliang and Li Pengfei were used to it, they still couldn't help but shrug at each other's shoulders.
With a little girl around, their faces will never be without wrinkles.
Xiao Dan remained expressionless. "Chief Yue, this is my daughter, Shishi. Shishi, call him Uncle Yue."
"Oh, it's Uncle Yue. Good afternoon."
Yue Yongjun sized up the overly polite young girl, and based on her address and Xiao Dan's words and actions, he guessed that she must be different from others.
When my daughter got back, she said that there was a very pretty little girl and a very cute little boy in the support team. They were both very skilled and were adorably fierce.
That little girl must be her.
Where is the little boy?
His gaze fell on the adult and two children who came in after him.
There are two little boys, both with rosy cheeks and cute faces. Which one is the smarter one?
Xie Lin first saluted the four men, "Commander, I heard you were looking for me?"
"Yes, Dad, is there a mission? Shishi is ready at any time, don't worry, I guarantee I'll come back safely."
Ding Youliang and Li Pengfei could still hold back just now, but at this moment they completely lost their composure.
Haha, how can this little girl look so funny when she's all serious?
Should they advise Lao Xiao to let the little girl join the military?
If I remember correctly, the little girl seemed to really like military uniforms.
Xiao Dan couldn't help but smile; his daughter was just too adorable.
"Be good, Shishi. Take Chou Chou and Xiao Shi to sit for a while. It's not a mission. Daddy just wants to talk to Chou Dan about something."
Shishi let out a soft "Ah," somewhat disappointed, as she quite enjoyed doing tasks.
She obediently led the two little ones to sit on the chair.
"Xiao Xie, this is Commander Yue of the General Military Region."
"Hello, Commander Yue."
Xie Lin saluted again.
Seeing that Yue Yue was the person's surname, he guessed it.
Yue Yongjun waved his hand, "No need for formalities. Thanks to your team, our soldiers were able to return safely. On behalf of the General Military Region, I thank you."
"Comrade Xie, the General Military Region has already negotiated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the people will be deported. The doctors and villagers who were held hostage will receive appropriate compensation."
"I have awarded you a first-class merit for saving so many people. You deserve this credit."
"There are also two minor heroes who couldn't apply for commendations because they aren't military personnel, so I applied for awards for them."
Upon hearing about the reward, Shishi's ears perked up immediately.
You'll get rewards for completing tasks, so hurry up and come up with some tasks!
Xie Lin was somewhat confused.
Why not just make a phone call? Why come in person?
