The day after Qin Huaiyi was sent away, Chu Wuyan came to tell Lin Xiaoxiao the good news.
Lin Xiaoxiao was fairly satisfied with the result.
Death is not scary; what is scary is living a life worse than death.
Whether Qin Huaiyi is imprisoned or executed, it cannot change the arrogance and ruthlessness in her bones.
Labor is different.
Working in harsh conditions is a huge challenge to one's will.
The country has only been established for a few decades, and it is a time when everything is in need of rebuilding and we are groping our way forward. The efforts and struggles of the masses are needed in all aspects.
The Minqin Forest Farm that Qin Huaiyi went to was located on the edge of the Tengger Desert. Lin Xiaoxiao had heard of the famous forest farm in later generations.
The area is plagued by frequent sandstorms, which ravage the forest farm almost year-round. Sandstorms can sometimes last for several days at a time, and the annual rainfall may be only a few tens of millimeters. The living conditions for the forest farm staff are harsh, with scarce resources and inconvenient transportation.
But even under such harsh conditions, the forestry workers have persevered for years, working diligently to plant trees, prevent wind erosion and control sandstorms, passing on the spirit of dedication from generation to generation.
Qin Huaiyi's tree-planting work there can be considered a contribution to socialist construction, and it can also gradually clear her name of any wrongdoing.
Lin Xiaoxiao spent the rest of her days recovering from her injuries. After learning of Qin Jinye's promotion, she only allowed Qin Yushen to return for one meal; she did not go back herself.
She has a strong recovery ability, and after taking the medicine from the space, she was almost fully recovered in just a few days, leaving only a scar that is not visible unless you lift up your sleeve.
But Qin Yushen misunderstood. Seeing her picking at her scars all the time, he thought she was worried about them leaving scars.
I don't know where they got this ointment, and they even explained that the ingredients were mild and wouldn't affect the child. They applied it to the scar every day.
It does have some effect, but it's impossible to prevent a scar from forming on such a deep wound. Even the best ointment can only lighten it.
That evening, Lin Xiaoxiao took a shower and immediately slipped into bed.
It's so cold, so cold.
It's still so comfortable in bed.
Qin Yushen pulled up her sleeve, glanced at the wound, his brows furrowed, and his face was solemn.
"It's all healed, don't worry, it doesn't hurt at all." Lin Xiaoxiao felt a little itchy in her wound, so she scratched it.
After the scab fell off, it left a red mark that was quite noticeable.
Qin Yushen took out the ointment and applied it to the scar. "It's faded a bit, but you can continue using it."
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at it and thought that maybe she should remove the scar, otherwise this man would always worry that she would feel uncomfortable looking at it.
To be honest, she didn't really feel anything; so what if she had a scar?
After Qin Yushen applied the medicine to her, he lay down next to her and began their usual pre-sleep chat.
"Honey, guess who I saw at the military base today?"
Um?
Lin Xiaoxiao perked up and poked his chest with her finger. "I can't guess. Tell me quickly."
Qin Yushen grasped her hand and chuckled softly, "That Lin Wanwan from your adoptive father's family."
"Her." Speaking of Lin Wanwan, she thought of Lin Dashan. She had been recuperating from her injuries these days and had forgotten about him.
"Didn't she marry Lu Yunzhang? It's normal for her to go and join the army."
Qin Yu thought deeply about the scene he had witnessed today.
Although they were in the same military region and had different functions, he and Lu Yunzhang had quite a few areas of overlap in their work and often came into contact, so he had a fairly good understanding of Lu Yunzhang's personality.
It's normal for someone with a good family background and being a young regimental commander in the military region to be a little arrogant, but he has good character, is very good at dealing with people, and values relationships.
Such a good person in every way could actually speak ill of his wife.
Thinking of those harsh words, Qin Yu was curious about what heinous things Lin Wanwan had done.
That's what I thought, and that's what I asked.
Lin Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Who knows? Not long ago, she came to me to brag about marrying into the Lu family and said that Lu Yunzhang's future status would definitely be higher than yours. I slapped her across the face right then and there."
Qin Yushen, who had been listening to her with a smile, suddenly stopped laughing.
He said seriously, "Don't worry, my wife, I will definitely work hard to climb up the ladder and I will never let you be laughed at by that Lin Wanwan."
Sometimes a man's competitive spirit comes about in such strange ways.
With the Lu family backing him, Lu Yunzhang has no problem getting promoted in the military region. As long as he doesn't make mistakes and takes every step steadily, he will surely rise to great heights in the future.
But the thought of Lin Wanwan mocking his wife made Qin Yushen's fists harden.
He secretly vowed to climb high enough so that he would never let his wife down.
Having ambition is a good thing, so Lin Xiaoxiao didn't discourage him. She snuggled into his arms and whispered, "I believe in you. In my heart, you are the best."
"Let alone a regimental commander, with your abilities, husband, becoming a division commander, army commander, or even a general is only a matter of time."
Men, sometimes you need to give them more emotional support.
This is the only way to ignite his fighting spirit.
Qin Yushen's voice was slightly trembling, "Wife, I will definitely try my best."
Lin Xiaoxiao suppressed a laugh, but still gave a soft "hmm," and just when Qin Yushen was about to be charmed by her, she made a sudden turn of events.
"but......."
Her hand lingered on the scar on his chest, and she said with heartache, "Compared to those empty titles, I would rather you be safe and healthy."
Qin Yushen was completely captivated and deeply moved.
