Qin Wanxue pondered for a moment. "Not really! It's mainly because I used to envy you. Going on missions all over the world and taking on so many dangerous projects is really cool and exciting. Now that the opportunity is right in front of me, I'm going in."
Ji Xia really wanted to ask what the current tasks were, but she swallowed the words at the tip of her tongue. She knew the rules very well, so she didn't ask any more questions.
"What about you? I heard that the army asked you to join the army several times, but you refused. What do you think?" Qin Wanxue felt that with Ji Xia's previous professionalism, she should like military life very much.
"I... I have a more important mission, you should know that. Your brother is in the army, and my status as a military wife is enough. In a sense, your brother is actually endorsing me.
The meaning of my existence is also the industrial development of our country. A century of humiliation has caused us to miss two industrial revolutions. When our country was first established, it was nice to say that all industries were underdeveloped, but the truth is that we were poor and blank. I want to do my best in this regard.
Qin Wanxue could also understand.
Ji Xia asked the question that concerned him the most, "That day, you called me, and I didn't answer at first. Later, I called back and realized you had lied to me. Now that time has passed, can you tell me what happened?"
Qin Wanxue smiled calmly, "It's nothing, really. It's just as you guessed. They found me and wanted to use me to find you, so they controlled me. But I was safe until the end. After all, I was the bait that lured you in."
Seeing Ji Xia sad, Qin Wanxue held her hand and said seriously, "You know, I've always been looking forward to doing missions with you. I was really happy when you found me that time. Even if they found me later, even if I knew at that moment that I might spend the rest of my life in prison, I was still happy, really!"
As a child of the Qin family, she has always known her mission!
With so many children in the Qin family, no one can escape their fate. As long as they have the surname Qin, they must always be prepared to sacrifice themselves for the country, even if they are daughters.
Ji Xia once knew all of this; Qin Wanxue had told her so, which was why she trusted Qin Xiao so much and had no doubt about Qin Wanxue's words. She was a very proud girl and never bothered to lie.
It would be a lie for Ji Xia to say she wasn't moved. She turned her hand and held Qin Wanxue's hand tightly. Even so, she still wanted to say, "I'm sorry!"
Qin Wanxue couldn't help but reach out and hug her. "Don't talk about this. This is my choice and my responsibility. Someone has to do this, don't you think?"
As soon as Qin Xiao came in, he saw his wife and sister hugging each other tightly, as if they were a real pair of lovers. The thought that he was superfluous was like a knife twisting his heart.
What was even more distressing was that he stood at the door for a long time, but both of them were so immersed in it that they didn't notice him.
“Ahem!”
Qin Xiao cleared his throat, and Ji Xia and Qin Wanxue came back to their senses. They saw him with a dark face, pointing outside, "Do you want me to step aside?"
Ji Xia knew what was wrong with Qin Xiao at a glance. He was even jealous. A hug from her best friend was nothing, but she felt uncomfortable when she saw her man's accusing and aggrieved eyes.
Qin Wanxue looked down on her brother, who monopolized her sister-in-law all day long. She had finally come here to chat with her sister-in-law, but he was still trying to sabotage her.
"Xia Xia, you could marry anyone, but you chose to marry my brother. Can my brother be a good husband? He devotes himself to work all day long, is narrow-minded, and has a strong male chauvinism. Tsk tsk, if you weren't pregnant with my nephew, I really want you to divorce me!" Qin Wanxue was afraid that she would anger her brother to death.
The main thing is, the way her brother looks at her is as if he wants to eat her.
Qin Xiao's face turned blue with anger. "Qin Wanxue, are you talking like a human being? So all the kindness I've shown you since you were little, all the money I've spent on you, have all been wasted?"
Seeing that her brother was really angry, Qin Wanxue stuck out her tongue and quickly ran out of the room.
Qin Xiao stopped cooking, closed the door, and walked towards Ji Xia. His steps were heavy and the corners of his eyes were a little red, which was the reaction of being extremely wronged.
Ji Xia was a little frightened by him. Was he going to cry?
She quickly stretched out her arms and wrapped them around Qin Xiao's waist, comforting him, "Don't be angry, Wanxue was just joking. She is your sister after all, don't be really angry with her!"
Qin Xiao felt even more aggrieved. Even at this moment, Ji Xia was still speaking up for her. "She actually encouraged you to divorce me. I didn't beat her to death because she's my sister."
Ji Xia tried her best to suppress her laughter. "Who told you to be so mean to her just now? With her unyielding personality, she only refrained from hitting you because you were her brother."
"Didn't Mom tell you that now that you're pregnant, you should keep her away from you. She's got a bad temper and is always making a fuss. What if she bumps into you or you fall?"
I can't admit that I'm jealous no matter what. It's not nice to say that I'm jealous of my own sister. What if my wife dislikes me?
"No, I will be careful. Besides, Wanxue is a sensible person." Ji Xia's cheeks hurt from trying to hold back her laughter. She had been tilting her neck back like this, and her cervical spine was quite uncomfortable.
He patted Qin Xiao on the back and asked him to let go.
Qin Xiao was also afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so he leaned over and picked her up, holding her in his arms like a child, and said angrily, "You are not allowed to listen to her instigation, and you are not allowed to divorce me."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why get a divorce for no reason? However, I still want to reserve the right to divorce. If you do something unforgivable in the future, I will definitely not give in." Ji Xia gave a warning in advance.
"I won't give you this chance!" After he said that, he kissed Ji Xia fiercely on the face. Ji Xia hugged his neck and kissed him deeply for a long time, finally calming down this stingy man.
Oh, forget about cheating, this arrogant man is too hard to please!
Qin Xiao’s cooking skills are pretty good. He made a dish of sweet-scented osmanthus braised pork. He added osmanthus honey to it, which made it more fragrant and less greasy. The pork was bright red in color and melted in the mouth. It was especially delicious.
A dish of chicken stewed with mushrooms is basically an indispensable dish in Northeast China whenever there are guests at home or during festivals.
There is also a dish of spicy and sour potato shreds, which is a dish that Jixia likes very much these days.
Whenever Qin Wanxue picked up some food, Qin Xiao would grab it. First, it was a piece of pork belly. Before Qin Wanxue put down her chopsticks, Qin Xiao grabbed it and put it in Ji Xia's bowl. When he saw Qin Wanxue was about to pick up a piece of chicken breast, Qin Xiao grabbed it again. In the end, he even didn't let Qin Wanxue eat the shredded potatoes.
Ji Xia watched without saying a word. Shen Congying looked at her son, then at her daughter. She found it strange that although Qin Wanxue was angry, she was trying her best to hold it back. Later, when she saw that the brother and sister were almost fighting, she slammed her chopsticks in anger and pointed outside, "Get out! If you want to fight, get out. Come back and eat after you're done!"
The brother and sister finally calmed down.
