Qiao Xuejun looked up at the sky: "I don't remember."
Zhao Xian smiled: "Are you some kind of little goldfish? With a seven-second memory?"
Qiao Xuejun didn't say anything. Zhao Xian said, "What if the sequelae become serious? Next time, don't help others without permission. She has her own hands. If it really doesn't work, let her ask someone else to go. She doesn't deserve your help personally."
Qiao Xuejun laughed: "What nonsense are you talking about... Actually, I just did it for her, and she didn't ask me to help her."
Zhao Xian sighed deeply. "It's not just her who's unworthy. No one else is. If anyone asks you for help, just tell them to get lost. Remember next time, you need to take care of your own hands too. Don't be so diligent."
"I understand." Qiao Xuejun snuggled into Zhao Xian's arms, feeling that the embrace was becoming more and more comfortable. She didn't have to walk.
Zhao Xian continued, sounding nagging, "It's the same with the work in the greenhouse. Just give orders when they're needed, and don't do any lifting or moving. You'll just encourage them to become lazy."
"I didn't send these people over here to just sit there and watch without doing any work."
Qiao Xuejun leaned in his arms: "Don't slander people's innocence out of thin air. Who is holding their hands and watching? Everyone is working hard."
Zhao Xian: "That's best."
Qiao Xuejun stayed in her nest, too tired to even talk.
She yawned, and suddenly thought of something, and tugged at Zhao Xian's collar: "Let's talk about business."
Zhao Xian: "I'm all ears."
Qiao Xuejun: "The temperature is going to drop significantly soon, and the mare in the stable is about to give birth. I plan to stay in the sentry post next to the greenhouse for the time being so that I can keep an eye on her and respond to any emergencies at any time."
A significant drop in temperature was warned by meteorological experts and was the consensus at the base.
"There are no beds in the outpost. Make me a bed."
The system knows the horse's upcoming foaling date, but it can't predict the exact date. The birth of a foal is a major event, requiring a human to be on hand to respond to any emergencies.
She poked Zhao Xian: "Speak."
Zhao Xian: "It's too cold in the outpost. I can't sleep."
Although the outpost is a container house built of steel and is very sturdy, it has very poor thermal insulation. If the soldiers rest in the outpost at night, they all have sleeping bags and light a fire to keep warm.
In short, sleeping at the outpost is a rare occurrence.
Qiao Xuejun: "Don't you have a sleeping bag?"
Zhao Xian: "Sleeping bags can only withstand temperatures above -40°C. Any lower than that, and there's no chance."
Qiao Xuejun frowned: "What should we do then?"
She patted Zhao Xian's chest and said, "Lord, it's time for you to solve the problem."
Zhao Xian: "I'll live in the base."
It's warm inside the base. Too many production rooms are busy, and with sufficient energy now, the basic production lines are running non-stop. The temperature in the caves is over 10°C, and inside the houses, it can reach 15°C.
Qiao Xuejun rejected this plan: "It's too far, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time."
In fact, it is not far, but Qiao Xuejun wants to be closer so that he can be more flexible and better deal with emergencies.
This is the only pregnant mare, and it is very important that nothing happens to her.
Before he knew it, Zhao Xian had reached the gate of the base. While talking, he carried the person in very naturally.
Qiao Xuejun also frowned and thought about the problem.
But she was so tired today that her mind wasn't working properly.
Zhao Xian: "Do we have to live next to the stable?"
Qiao Xuejun nodded: "Yeah."
She said, "Why don't we build a wooden house, like a stable?"
The stable had two levels, with corn stalks in the middle for warmth and logs on the outside.
There was originally a post for people to rest, so we didn't consider this when we built the stables. Now we have to rebuild it again, which seems like a waste of manpower.
Seeing that she was serious, Zhao Xian finally said, "The snow house is fine."
Qiao Xuejun then remembered: "Yes, the engineer from the Ministry of Construction said they tried it before."
She added, "But there's no snow around there."
The stable is also built on the mountain and is affected by the heating of the production room in the cave. The temperature of the entire ground is higher than other places around it. The snow that fell recently melted quickly, making it difficult to accumulate snow.
Zhao Xian: "It will snow heavily in a few days."
Qiao Xuejun nodded.
After the problem was solved, she noticed that she had arrived at Zhao Xian's room.
Qiao Xuejun: “…”
Never mind, I've arrived. I'm really tired and don't have the energy to go back.
She reached out and took the walkie-talkie from Zhao Xian.
Zhao Xian didn't move and let her take it.
Qiao Xuejun found the channel where she could contact Wang Juanfeng: "Calling Doctor Wang, calling Doctor Wang."
After a while, someone answered: "Qiao Qiao? Why haven't you gone home yet?"
Qiao Xuejun: "I worked overtime today and got off work late. Don't wait for me, I'm resting at the base."
Wang Juanfeng: "Okay. Are we at the base now? Are you still outside?"
Zhao Xian: "Back to base."
The other party was silent for a moment, as if startled by Zhao Xian's voice, and immediately replied: "Okay, the lord is here, then I feel relieved."
Qiao Xuejun: "Doctor Wang, please help me pack my things, such as daily necessities, and bring them to me when you come up tomorrow. I may not be able to go home for the time being."
Wang Juanfeng was surprised and subconsciously asked, "Are you progressing so fast?!"
Qiao Xuejun: “…”
Zhao Xian laughed and took the initiative to explain: "Teacher Qiao is going to deliver a horse. This side is closer."
Wang Juanfeng: "Oh, oh. I see."
She knew she was overthinking it, and felt a little awkward: "Bringing daily necessities, right? I'll pack them up tomorrow."
Qiao Xuejun: "Well, don't miss it."
After hanging up the call, Qiao Xuejun returned the intercom to Zhao Xian: "She seems to know about us."
