Chapter 484 Fulfilling the Promise
"I have a family, the army is my home?" Liu Xiaofeng answered without thinking.
"Then you can live with your army and your gun for the rest of your life!" Su Man said angrily, stood up, and walked away without looking back.
Liu Xiaofeng looked at Su Man's back, and couldn't understand why Xiao Man suddenly got angry. Wasn't she fine just now?
*
In more than 20 days, the baby in Xia Qingling's belly will be full-term. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, Lu Jingjing asked Xia Qingling to stop working and stay at home to wait for the birth of the baby.
Su Xiangnan's wedding room was almost ready. Originally, he wanted to hold the wedding before the New Year. However, because his elder brother and sister-in-law took their two children back to his sister-in-law's family home to celebrate the New Year, and Xia Guyu had not returned to the army yet, he decided to wait a few days and hold the wedding on the fifth day of the New Year.
In a blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. The family started preparing for the reunion dinner early and made a large table full of food. After the meal, Guo Yumei gave New Year's money to several children, even the unborn grandson.
Brother Qingshu also gave red envelopes to his nephew. When Qingcao saw this, he also gave his own red envelope to his nephew, saying that he was the younger uncle and the elder, and it was natural for the elders to give red envelopes to the younger ones.
The family looked at Qingcao's proud look and couldn't help but laugh.
After dinner, Xia Qingxi and Lu Jingxi went to bed. Lu Jingxi continued to massage his wife's legs and put oil on her belly.
Perhaps it was because he took good care of her, Xia Qingxi's legs were not swollen, and her belly did not have any pregnancy marks. She looked white and clean.
"Qingcao's application for early enlistment has been approved, and the political review has also been passed. After the New Year, she can join the army for training." Lu Jingxi said while gently massaging his wife's legs.
"It's really great!" Xia Qingxi's face was full of smiles. In this way, her brother would not have to go back to his hometown, and he would be able to see her often in the future.
After being happy, her face slowly dimmed again. If mother and brother stayed in the army, and brother went back to hometown alone, his legs... Xia Qingxi was really worried.
Seeing his wife's face dim, Lu Jingxie was so smart, how could he not guess that she was worried about her brother Xia Qingshu's stay or leave? He just heard him say as usual:
"Brother can also stay in the army. The article he wrote praising the army some time ago was published in the Youth Daily. When I talked about this with Minister Ma of the Propaganda Department, I mentioned it to him. Minister Ma said that brother can be a non-staff member of the army."
"Really?!" Xia Qingxi almost exclaimed in surprise, and the haze on her face disappeared.
After getting a positive answer from Lu Jingchen, Xia Qingliu couldn't help but lower her head and kiss him on the forehead.
Her warm lips fell on Lu Jingchen's slightly cool forehead with infinite affection.
She looked at the tall man who was squatting at her feet with a loving look. She suddenly felt a lot in her heart and uttered a word from the bottom of her heart.
"Lu Jingchen, you are so nice!"
Lu Jingchen has always been like this, always thinking what she thinks, silently helping her arrange everything, always standing in front of herself when something happens, doing her best for herself and her family, without asking for credit or reward.
She feels very lucky to have such a husband in this life!
She had never felt like Mo Xiaoxiao, that she was a god-like being, that she could control the fate of others.
After coming to this world and making sure that she did not have any golden fingers, she decided to be an ordinary person.
To this day, she feels that the most correct thing she has done is not to divorce Lu Jingchen in a high-handed way. Now she just wants to manage her marriage well and live with Lu Jingchen in this world until old age.
"I didn't do anything. My brother was able to stay in the Propaganda Department entirely because of his personal ability." Lu Jingchen said to his wife in a deep voice, not intending to take credit for it.
"Thank you too." Xia Qingqing smiled and said seriously:
"If you hadn't brought me to the army, our family wouldn't have had the chance to change our fate."
In fact, she asked her brother to go to college just to give him a thought and not let him become decadent. Although she knew that disabled people could go to college in the modern world, in this era, colleges would hardly admit disabled people.
She was very worried about what would happen if her brother was rejected by the school after he was admitted to the university.
But now it's good. Her brother can stay in the army. Although he is just a non-staff member, she believes that with his efforts, his future life will definitely not be bad, and he may even become a writer.
Seeing his wife happy, Lu Jingchen's lips unconsciously raised slightly. His wife was happy, so was he. He said solemnly:
"Ah Xi, thank you for coming here and being by my side."
Hearing Lu Jingchen thanking her so sincerely, Xia Qingchen felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't know if it was because she felt guilty. When she heard Lu Jingchen say thank you for her coming here, she always felt that Lu Jingchen knew something.
She didn't plan to tell anyone about her identity as a time traveler. First, she felt there was no need to tell anyone. Second, she wanted to protect herself. After all, feudal superstitions were not allowed now. If others knew her identity, it would cause trouble for Lu Jingchen.
"Third brother and Mo Ya are getting married on the fifth day of the first lunar month, right?" Xia Qingying deliberately changed the subject and asked.
"Well, my eldest brother called and said that they would return to the army on the third day of the first lunar month." Lu Jingchen nodded and replied, with no strange expression on his face.
"Oh, that's good, but I don't know when Guyu will return to the army. I hope she won't miss Mo Ya's wedding." Xia Qingying said softly.
Soon Xia Qingying found out that Xia Guyu was returning to the army on the fourth day of the first lunar month, and it was not someone else who told her, but her brother Xia Qingshu.
She was also wondering how her brother knew the exact time when Guyu would return to the army. Her brother told her that it was Xia Guyu who called the Propaganda Department to wish him a happy new year and told him the time when he would return to the army.
Time passed in a blink of an eye and it was the third day of the first lunar month. Su Xiangdong's family of four also returned to the army. On the day when she knew they were returning to the army, Huang Caiping couldn't wait to find Mo Xiaoxiao and asked her when she could fulfill her promise to her. What
she talked about with Hu Moupi was all about interests. Huang Caiping did so many things for Mo Xiaoxiao, but she didn't see any benefits until now. Of course, she was not happy.
And seeing Shi Yamin's family who returned to the army, loving each other and happy, and thinking about herself and her son spending the New Year alone, she felt very uncomfortable. She knew that
the Su family was going to have a wedding soon, and there would be so many people there, so it would be much easier to take the child away in the chaos.
There is another advantage of having a large crowd: if you lose a child, he or she will not be found for a while. .This
