Chapter 257 There are gains and losses



The couple nodded repeatedly, but didn't listen to the man.

They weren't originally villagers of Yuxian Village, so there was really no need for them to stay.

Wait until that person is far away.

Gu Sinian observed the surrounding water level, which had dropped considerably compared to five days ago.

"let's go."

"Now? Are you sure?"

Su Ying was still a little worried when she saw that the water was still knee-deep.

Gu Sinian stepped forward and took Su Ying's hand, comforting her, "Even under normal circumstances, I wouldn't be entirely confident, but don't you have the space at your disposal?"

"Follow me in a moment. If something seems wrong, we'll immediately enter the space."

Seeing that his wife was still a little hesitant, Gu Sinian patiently explained to her.

“We have to leave. The water level has only dropped by half in five days. At this rate, we’ll be stuck in Yuxian Village for a while longer. Can you handle that?”

Su Ying shook her head. She had had enough. There was a little one in the space who was always eyeing the space and wanted to go out and play. Although they had trapped the child for a few days, the child would eventually realize something was wrong, and then they would be unable to explain themselves.

The child is very smart; she's just young, not stupid...

The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for her.

If the space is exposed, it's uncertain whether she will survive.

Besides, children shouldn't get injections too often; it's unhealthy. Although there are no side effects, she really doesn't want to give her child injections anymore.

"It's time to go back. We've been missing for several days, and our families must be worried sick. We should leave Yuxian Village as soon as possible."

Su Ying trusted Gu Sinian's judgment; although he was the leader, his abilities were undeniable.

Her husband does have the ability to judge even a small water level.

"Let's go. Let's get out of Fish Village first, and then we'll see how things go."

"good."

Gu Sinian knew his wife was afraid of water and couldn't swim, so he patted his shoulder.

Su Ying looked puzzled. "What?"

"Come on up. I'll carry you. The water level is a bit high, just jump up and I can catch you."

Su Ying didn't stand on ceremony. She hopped and skipped up onto the man's shoulder and tightly gripped his neck.

"Let's go."

"good."

The two of them continued walking forward.

Just in case, Su Ying took out a very long stick from Chu Nan's spatial storage, just like a blind man probing the way.

"That's clever."

"I'm not stupid. If I were stupid... how could your two darlings be so smart?"

"Yes, yes, yes. You're absolutely right."

Gu Sinian walked forward with a helpless expression.

After walking for about two hours, we finally left Yuxian Village.

The two took a deep breath. "We've finally gotten out of Yuxian Village. The rest of the area is at a high level, but Yuxian Village is flooded."

"There's nothing we can do about it. They enjoy a uniquely favorable environment for fish farming, so they have to endure some hardships. We can't let them have all the good things."

"That's true. You can't have everything without some gains and losses."

The two arrived at a road without water, and Gu Sinian asked Su Ying to release his military green jeep.

Su Ying nodded. After the car was released, she sat in the back seat as usual, took Xiao Bao out, and removed the needles from her.

When Xiao Bao slowly woke up, she rubbed her eyes and looked around. It wasn't the familiar and cozy house she knew.

Where am I?

"In the car," Su Ying replied briefly.

Where are we going?

"Let's go home. Hasn't Xiaobao been wanting to see his brother all this time?"

Xiao Bao fiddled with his little hands, a little nervous, "Will my brother like it?"

Yes, I will.

Xiao Bao's eyes lit up slightly, "Really?"

"Of course it's true."

"Very good."

Xiao Bao clapped his hands, and Gu Sinian could feel Xiao Bao's good mood even while driving.

"When you get back, get along well with your brother. He will like you a lot. You two are twins, so you have a better understanding than most people."

Xiao Bao nodded his head like a little chick, "I will, handsome uncle."

Su Ying wasn't worried at all that Gu Lichen might be hostile towards Xiao Bao. Ever since Gu Lichen was very young, they, as his parents and family, had been telling him that he had a twin sister.

The things Gu Lichen heard most often since childhood were about his younger sister whom he had never met.

She was very worried about him after she learned that he had been abandoned by bad people.

The problem that Xiao Bao is worried about will never happen.

Gu Lichen will really like his younger sister.

This is all thanks to her; she brainwashed the child for three years. How could he not love his little sister?

Xiao Bao's worries are completely unnecessary.

What Su Ying worried about three years ago was what would happen if Gu Lichen rejected her after the child came back, and how sad the child would be.

Through her daily brainwashing, Gu Lichen had long since become accustomed to the presence of his little sister, Xiaobao.

The car moved slowly along the road, and although it was drizzling, it did not delay the jeep's progress.

As evening approached, a military green jeep appeared at the entrance of the camp.

The guards saw a car with a familiar license plate and knew who was driving it without even checking their identities.

As soon as the driver approached, they spotted the regimental commander himself.

They opened the gate and let the car drive into the compound.

As soon as the guards saw Commander Gu return, they immediately dialed the number in the commander's office.

"Reporting to Commander Qin! Regiment Commander Gu is back!"

A firm, resolute voice came from the other end of the phone: "Is my daughter in the car?"

The soldiers all knew who Commander Qin's daughter was; after all, they had lived in the garrison for three years and their faces were already familiar to everyone.

"The regimental commander's wife was also in the car, along with a little girl. I couldn't see the child's face clearly, but I guess it was Zhang's daughter, Yaya."

It was no secret in the garrison that Commander Gu really enjoyed taking Ya Ya out to play.

Upon hearing the mention of a little girl on the other end of the phone, the voice became unusually agitated, "Are you sure there really is a little girl in the car?"

"some."

"That's wonderful! My granddaughter has been found."

The soldier wanted to say something more, but found the call had already ended, leaving only a soft, muffled sound.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the other soldier with a puzzled expression, "When did Commander Qin have a granddaughter? How come I didn't know? Didn't the regimental commander's wife only have a son, Chenchen?"

“You’re one of the last to arrive, so you don’t know much about our base. Come over here and let me tell you some gossip.”

The soldier was very interested and buried his head in it.

The two chatted happily.

On the other hand, Qin Fang became even more motivated to approve documents after learning that his granddaughter had returned.

"I need to finish my work quickly so I can go back and see my granddaughter as soon as possible."

When Qin Fang saw the situation report from Yuxian Village, he was completely taken aback.

"The flood submerged the entire Yuxian Village, but there were zero casualties. The village's property was not completely destroyed, and half of the fish were even sold."

"The flood came just a few hours after the fish were sold. We were really lucky."
