The family settled in the courtyard. When I told the eldest sister that it had been cleaned up, she really meant it. The place was spotless and clean, and even the blankets smelled of soap.
Yao Yanxin praised Ruan Shengpeng: "You found a very reliable comrade-in-arms!"
Ruan Shengpeng suddenly hugged his wife, Yao Yanxin, who blushed and said, "The children are outside! Don't do anything rash!"
Ruan Shengpeng, who was in a bad mood, was suddenly cheered up by his wife. He grinned mischievously and said, "How did I do anything inappropriate? I just hugged my wife. Is that considered inappropriate? Or are you... trying to do something inappropriate?"
Yao Yanxin shoved the person away: "You wanted to do something reckless, so you're trying to shift the blame to me!"
Seeing that his wife was really angry, Ruan Shengpeng quickly softened his tone: "It was my fault for wanting to do something reckless, it was my wife who wouldn't give me the chance!"
Yao Yanxin: "..." Why does this sound so strange?
The courtyard has three sections. Sister Xiang cleaned up the first section, and her family of four lived there. The first section had quite a few rooms, a total of four or five.
Yao Tongjia and Yao Tongxu chose a room that was far away from their parents. They didn't want to eavesdrop at night. Even with loving parents, they knew they had to be discreet!
After packing her things, Yao Tongjia went to check the kitchen. It had coal briquettes and firewood, and everything was ready. Yao Yanxin came over and said, "I'll cook!"
Ruan Shengpeng followed them into the kitchen, but Yao Tongjia, who was a novice in the kitchen, did not go in. The family of four ate a simple meal of dumplings and white noodles, which was exceptionally satisfying in this kind of weather.
Yao Tongjia sat in the living room waiting for Ruan Shengpeng to come out: "Where are Brother Xiao and the others?"
“According to the previous route, they should only have covered less than a fifth of the route. It will take several more days. There are many of them, so don’t worry!” Ruan Shengpeng reassured them.
"How are you going to go out all by yourself?" Yao Tongjia asked, seeing Ruan Shengpeng's expression as he prepared to leave.
Ruan Shengpeng put on his hat: "The leader sent someone to pick me up. Don't go out yet, wait for me to come back!" As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a car horn rang out outside.
Yao Tongjia, Yao Tongxu, and Yao Yanxin stood at the door, watching Ruan Shengpeng being picked up!
Yao Yanxin couldn't see the car coming from behind, and hurriedly closed the door in a panic. She was still terrified by the plane bomb earlier and felt insecure.
After closing the door, Yao Yanxin saw her two children looking at her. As a mother, she felt a sense of fear that she couldn't express: "Are you tired? Do you want to go to sleep?"
Yao Tongjia immediately saw the fear in her mother's eyes. She tugged at her mother's hand and said, "Ruan Shengpeng isn't here. I'll rest with you!"
Yao Yanxin patted her daughter's hand: "Call me Dad!"
“I’m already being very polite to him by calling him ‘Dad’ in front of him, and he still expects me to call him that behind his back! He shouldn’t have brought you along this time; it scared you!”
“Your father can’t come to Beijing without his superiors’ permission. He just thought that coming to Beijing together this time would help me get over my emotions.”
“Otherwise, how can I come to Beijing to help you after you settle down here?” Yao Yanxin originally wanted to say that she would come to Beijing to help take care of your child, but then she thought that the child was not yet an adult, so she changed it to “helping.”
"If you want to come, I'll bring you. Does he have to be the only one to bring you? Look at this bomb, and he still dares to swear it's nothing. With his arrogance, he'll get what's coming to him sooner or later..."
When Yao Tongjia saw Yao Yanxin's expression change, she couldn't continue speaking!
“He was used to working alone, so it’s normal for him to have some shortcomings when he takes over the military region. As his family, we should give him more encouragement!”
Seeing Yao Yanxin's expression that Ruan Shengpeng was perfect, Yao Tongjia could only sigh. This mother was just love-struck, but thankfully Ruan Shengpeng wasn't a complete jerk!
With them watching over me from now on, even if he's a scumbag, he'll have to straighten me out. She could only nod and say, "Okay, let's go to sleep, I'm sleepy too!"
Yao Tongjia closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but Yao Yanxin's embrace was too warm, and she unknowingly fell asleep!
However, Yao Tongjia's sleep was not peaceful. She dreamed that Xiao Gengwu was going through a life-or-death situation and was shot in the head, which scared Yao Tongjia awake.
When Yao Tongjia woke up, her head was throbbing. Why did sleeping feel worse than not sleeping at all? She was so tired. She saw that Yao Yanxin was sleeping soundly, so she didn't dare to move!
Continuing to think about what had just happened with her eyes closed, Yao Tongjia remembered how many people were protecting him, and how he wasn't a celebrity, so he should be alright! Now that he wasn't by her side, Yao Tongjia could only pray in her heart!
Unfortunately, God did not hear Yao Tongjia's prayers. Xiao Gengwu was running desperately on the road. Fortunately, he had been training beforehand and his physical fitness was still up to par.
But he was all alone and couldn't fight back. He was just hoping that Hawkeye would notice something was wrong and come after him, otherwise he would be done for today.
It's funny, he became like this just because he went to the toilet once!
This time, Xiao Gengwu was given a hard sleeper carriage. Eagle-eyed Man served him food, and Xiao Gengwu hardly ever came out. But everyone has to go to the toilet sometimes, so he had to come out.
The toilets on the train are not separated by gender, and there was a long queue. Suddenly, two or three people rushed over, and the one being helped in the middle was an elderly woman.
The old woman was clutching her stomach with one hand, her face pale; she had clearly eaten something bad.
A young man supporting her kept apologizing to the people in front, saying, "My mother has an upset stomach, could you let the elderly go first?"
Everyone had been waiting for a long time and was somewhat reluctant, but the aunt's descendants were good at doing things. They took the soft cake and each person got a small piece.
Sharing food at the entrance of a toilet would be looked down upon in later generations, but in times of food and clothing shortages, even sharing food inside a toilet would only make people drool and would not be considered disgusting!
The old lady became the first person to go to the toilet. Xiao Gengwu did not eat the cake; he was cautious, but unfortunately, his bodyguard, the fourth one, wanted to eat it.
Soldiers' stomachs are bottomless pits. When he saw something to eat and noticed that Xiao Gengwu didn't seem interested, he snatched it and ate it in one bite.
Then Xiao Gengwu noticed a problem: the line seemed to be acting strangely, with each person taking longer to use the restroom!
This made Xiao Gengwu uneasy. He thought about leaving the queue and going back. He looked back at the many people behind him and realized that if he waited to join the queue again, it would only take longer.
When it comes to the three urgent needs of a person, it's no joke. He wanted to ask Lao Si to ask Eagle Eye Man to bring a few more people, but Lao Si hesitated and said that his stomach hurt.
Xiao Gengwu had no choice but to let him go to the toilet first. When Xiao Gengwu finished using the toilet and came out, they had already arrived at a small station!
Xiao Gengwu knew he was in trouble, but the fourth brother went into the toilet again. Xiao Gengwu tried to run back to the carriage, but it was too late. He was already being pulled along and pushed towards the door.
He tried to shout for help, but other people's voices were louder than his!
