At 5:30 in the morning, on the way back to the farm in the jeep, Gong Changzheng felt much more relaxed, no longer feeling the irritability he felt every time he returned to the barracks from home.
Gong Changzheng took the documents back to cancel his leave, which had the seal of Gongjia Village on it.
As the sky gradually brightened, Lu Shiyi came back from morning exercise and made porridge, steamed buns, and fished pickles from the pickle jar in the kitchen.
Lu Shiyi put the food on the table and went to the bedroom to call Su Jin to get up.
The elder asked the guard to come and inform them that the weather has been too cold recently and they have also accepted the task of investigating Gongjia Village. They took Hanhan to their side to take care of him and leave the rest of the time to the young couple.
"The mission of Gongjia Village has been handed over to us again." Lu Shiyi looked at Su Jin and said, "After breakfast, let's go to the office. I'll ask Gong Changzheng to bring the seal of Gongjia Village over."
Gongjia Village has four brigades, each with educated youth. Due to lax management, most of the educated youth can come and go freely.
Lu Shiyi planned to arrange several team members to hide there and draw the terrain maps of several brigades.
"Wife, I've arranged for team members to go there. Girls are not allowed to go there. Almost all the female educated youth there have been tricked back home." Lu Shiyi told Su Jin that the situation in those brigades was not good. "Gong Changzheng's village is in the second brigades. Because of Grandpa Gong and Gong Changzheng, these villagers are sensible. The other three brigades are different."
Several team members were ready to go. Gong Changzheng brought the brigade seal with him. A special person carved the seal out of a white radish and pressed it on the letter of introduction.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Wu Jun specially arranged for people to go to the armed forces department next door to make arrangements, and also had special people waiting in various places.
"Ayi, are you going there too?" Su Jin asked Lu Shiyi while eating breakfast.
"I think our family of three will all go there. Grandpa and the elders will stay at home. We can finish everything in five days at most." Lu Shiyi told Su Jin his ideas. For this mission, he and Lao Lin were both commanding from the rear.
Yunfeng and Su Jin stayed by his side and could help with advice. For women, their words were easier to believe.
"Okay!" Su Jin nodded and agreed. "Hanhan is grown up now, and grandma said he prefers reading children's books on his own."
Lu Shiyi chuckled and said, "I think Hanhan is from my father-in-law's family. The men in our family are more active."
When they were young, they were all very naughty and were often chased and beaten by Mr. Lu with a cane.
"Grandpa said the other day that it would be great if our family could produce a Confucian general." Su Jin said happily.
Hanhan likes to watch Lu Shiyi and the others training. Every time he sees it, he screams.
"It hasn't snowed in the past few days, so the situation is better. The team members are clearing the road down the mountain every morning and try to keep the road from freezing." Lu Shiyi thought about the logistics transport team taking advantage of the good weather to continuously deliver supplies to the mountain.
"We discussed the meal with grandpa and the elders. Do you think we can just snap our heads and carry Hanhan away?" Su Jin complained.
Lu Bairen takes Hanhan for a walk almost every day, and when the weather is good, he shows off in front of his old comrades.
"Okay!" Lu Shiyi sighed regretfully, "If I had known it would be so troublesome for Grandpa to come here, I should have let him go back before winter."
Su Jin chuckled: "If you had told me in advance, Grandpa would probably give you a beating again."
Lu Shiyi had a helpless smile on his face and reached out to pick up some food for Su Jin.
After breakfast, the young couple wore thick military coats and went to the backyard. As soon as they entered the yard, they heard the elder and Lu Bairen arguing about playing chess. Du Ruo was standing in front of the open window holding Hanhan.
"Xiao Jin is here, come in quickly!" Du Ruo looked at the young couple and immediately called out to them, "You two old men, stop arguing. Even Hanhan is getting a headache from you two bickering."
Su Jin smiled after hearing what Du Ruo said.
The two entered the house and saw two old men sitting together with a chess set on the kang table in the middle.
"Both of them are bad at chess. No one in the courtyard plays chess with them." Lu Shiyi whispered to Su Jin, "Grandpa will ask you to play chess with him later. Don't agree."
Phew!
Su Jin immediately became happy: "I understand."
The young couple entered the house. The elder and Lu Bairen were still arguing. They both turned around and looked at the two of them at the same time.
"Grandpa, I plan to take Xiaojin and Hanhan to carry out this mission." Lu Shiyi told the two old men.
The elder and Lu Bairen glared at Lu Shiyi after hearing this. The mission of Gongjia Village was planned by the two of them together, and Su Jin and her son were not included.
"You little brat, it's freezing cold, why did you let Xiao Jin follow you?" Du Ruo asked directly.
Lu Shiyi looked at Du Ruo with a smile on his face: "Grandma, we have to rescue someone again this time. Xiaojin can help, and Hanhan can't do without Xiaojin. Our family of three will be back in five days. You can take Aunt Yang to prepare food for the New Year."
"Why do family members have to be present for the mission?" Du Ruo frowned slightly. Hanhan called "Mom" in Su Jin's arms.
After Lu Bairen and Du Ruo came over, Su Jin put Hanhan next to the old couple so that they would not be bored during the day. He could make the old couple laugh every day.
Ever since Hanhan came here, the house has become noisy.
"Grandma, except for one brigade in Gongjia Village, all the other brigades are selling wives." Lu Shiyi got the news early.
When the Lin County Armed Forces Department was notified, there was a soldier's child in the family compound who was serving as an educated youth in the first brigade. He took advantage of his break to go home and complain, asking the girls in the compound who were preparing to go to the countryside to go with other educated youths and absolutely not to go to the countryside to join the team nearby.
"That's all. You have to protect Xiao Jin. If Xiao Jin is in any danger, don't come back." Du Ruo understood that Lu Shiyi was considerate and wanted to lead the mother and child there. "Is Yunfeng going there?"
