Qin Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I may have a mission in a few days. If you have anything to say in the next few days, please tell me. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for several days."
"What is the mission? Will it be dangerous?"
Ji Xia quickly sat up and asked, looking into his eyes.
"I can't say that!" Qin Xiao is gentle only when facing Ji Xia. The tenderness in his black eyes is unimaginable. The tenderness of a tough guy is often the most touching.
"But I won't let anything happen to myself!" Qin Xiao's hand covered her shoulder, so thin and flexible, deeply touching his heart.
He is no longer alone, he has a wife who needs care. It is a sweet yet heavy burden, but he feels so honored. He hopes to be able to bear this burden in this life and the next.
Ji Xia was no exception. She knew Qin Xiao's identity and knew that he must have many top-secret tasks to complete, but she still couldn't help but snuggle into his arms.
Taking a deep breath of his familiar and pleasant scent, she closed her eyes and said, "Then you must remember what you said."
After saying that, she got off the kang again, ran out, and told Qin Xiao, "Wait for me, I'll pack some things for you!"
Qin Xiao hurriedly hugged her, and his arm just happened to be around her abdomen. Ji Xia was startled and turned around quickly to avoid her lower abdomen. This action made Qin Xiao suspicious, but he didn't think much about it. He just thought that he hurt Ji Xia, so he reduced his strength a lot.
"Don't be in a hurry. We won't leave for a few days."
Originally, the investigation team should have arrived tomorrow, but the car broke down on the way, and a person from the US Ministry of Foreign Affairs had dysentery on the way, so they were delayed. However, at the latest, those people will arrive in Bing County in three days.
This time, those people came for Qin Xiao.
He deliberately revealed a flaw and attracted those people to his side, thus putting Ji Xia in a very safe place.
Ji Xia had a very simple upbringing. She had always lived in the countryside and only had a high school education. Her past was like a blank sheet of paper, with nothing to hide, and those people didn't want to doubt her at all.
On the contrary, Qin Xiao's marriage to Ji Xia seemed to make his intentions very clear. After all, based on Qin Xiao's identity and background, he should never marry a village girl like Ji Xia.
"Besides, there is no danger in my mission this time. Don't worry about me." Qin Xiao held her in his arms, put his face against her temples, and put his big hands on her back.
Originally, Ji Xia planned to tell him about her pregnancy, but she planned to take out all the equipment before telling him, because she was worried that once she told him about her pregnancy, Qin Xiao would restrict her freedom.
Although Qin Xiao didn't say a lot, Ji Xia also understood that, both publicly and privately, Qin Xiao valued her safety more than his own life. What's more, she was now pregnant with Qin Xiao's child.
Now, Ji Xia decided to wait until Qin Xiao completed the task and not distract him.
The two hugged each other for a while, and Qin Xiao heard her breathing become slow and long. Seeing that she fell asleep, he put her down, carefully pulled the quilt to cover her, and then went out.
Ji Xia woke up around two o'clock in the afternoon. She had only slept for less than an hour, but she felt much more energetic.
After replacing all the rice, flour and coarse grains in the house with those produced in the space, Ji Xia ground some soy milk with soybeans in the space and drank it. She felt much more energetic and further confirmed that the food produced in the space did have miraculous effects, so she went out.
When Chen Dadong was found, he was coming out of the cinema with a girl. When he saw Ji Xia, he didn't even care about the girl and ran towards Ji Xia. The girl was so angry that she stomped her feet like a puffing frog and ran away wiping her tears.
Ji Xia raised his chin towards that side, "Why don't you catch up and explain?"
Chen Dadong laughed and said, "Sister Xia's affairs are all important matters. There is no time to explain."
Several people who had worked with Mr. Qiao Sanye before were recruited into the factory this time. Because of their relationship with Ji Xia, they were assigned good positions. In the future, they will be people who eat commercial grain. Who wouldn't be envious?
Chen Dadong was also very envious. In his eyes, Sister Xia was a god, and he could neglect anyone but not Sister Xia.
As long as Sister Xia is here, there are all kinds of girls!
Ji Xia slapped a hundred yuan into Chen Dadong's hand and said, "Go tell Mr. Qiao San that I want to see him at the state-owned restaurant in half an hour!"
Chen Dadong ran away in a hurry and quickly notified Mr. Qiao Sanye.
Qiao San has recently sold a large amount of supplies. For safety reasons, he has stopped all the petty fights he had in the past. In addition, he always has scarce supplies in his hands, so his status in the underworld is rising and he is very proud of himself.
I heard that Ji Xia wanted to see the Bodhisattva to be worshipped, so I put money and tickets in my pocket. As soon as I entered the state-owned restaurant, I didn't see the God of Wealth, so Mr. Qiao San ordered all the dishes in the state-owned restaurant today. I ordered two or three servings of delicious food, and ordered three pounds of dumplings with pork and sauerkraut stuffing.
"Sister Xia!" Mr. Qiao San ran over like a servile person, bowing and scraping, and his attentiveness attracted the attention of the people inside.
"Constrain yourself!" Ji Xia said coldly.
After dealing with him several times, Ji Xia had already regarded Mr. Qiao San as one of his own, and no longer acted mysterious in front of Mr. Qiao San. Mr. Qiao San also feared Ji Xia like a god.
“Yes, yes!”
The three of them sat in three directions and didn't speak for a while. When the dishes were called out at the window, Mr. Qiao Sanye and Chen Dadong ran to get the dishes. Their fawning looks made the people in the state-owned restaurant look at Ji Xia.
"Xia Jie, we're lucky today! We have catfish stewed with eggplant." Chen Dadong pushed several large meat dishes in front of Ji Xia. "I ordered three servings of each. I'll have someone pack the other two in lunch boxes for you to take home."
Chicken stewed with mushrooms, pork ribs stewed with beans. The beans and eggplants are all dried vegetables, otherwise there would be no fresh vegetables to eat at this time. In the snow and ice, the only fresh vegetables that can be eaten are the cabbage and radish stored in the cellar.
Ji Xia took a bite and it was so delicious that she almost swallowed her tongue.
After confirming her pregnancy, she felt that something was wrong with her. She was sleepy and gluttonous. She had never been like that since she was a child. So the child would have to look like the father.
She felt that the Qin Xiao she saw must be in disguise, and what was shown to her was all a false image. She did not see the real Qin Xiao.
However, it doesn't matter to her. In front of people they are not familiar with, everyone hides their bad side and shows their good side.
It was because Ji Xia was capable and generous that she didn't mind such an important matter.
After finishing the meal, Ji Xia packed the vegetables and dumplings in the net bag. After wiping his mouth, he said, "I came to you to ask for your help again!"
Qiao San has never helped Ji Xia for free. One deal he makes from Ji Xia is equivalent to the past ten years.
"Sister Xia, it's a bit awkward to say you're helping me. Just give us your orders, and we'll do our best!"
