After resting the whole way, Yao Tongjia finally sat up when they arrived at the military region. Seeing Xiao Gengwu looking at her, Yao Tongjia glared at him and said, "Hmph! You dog!"
Xiao Gengwu just smiled good-naturedly: "I'm a dog, and you're a dog's wife!" After saying that, he barked twice at Yao Tongjia.
Yao Tongjia covered her eyes speechlessly, not wanting to look at this person whose mind was full of lewd nonsense. She missed the innocent boy from before!
Xiao Gengwu didn't dare to provoke Yao Tongjia too much: "I just can't bear to part with you. Are you feeling better? If you are, we'll get off the bus!"
Before Yao Tongjia could answer, there was a knock on the car window. Yao Tongjia looked and saw that it was Yao Tongxu!
The two had no choice but to get off the car. Yao Tongxu complained, "You two are dawdling too much! I called you but you didn't answer. We have to board the plane in an hour."
"Mom has prepared a table full of dishes, just waiting for you to come and eat. You've been dawdling for so long. Come and eat quickly, we'll be taking our luggage to the mountain soon after we finish eating."
As Xiao Gengwu listened to Yao Tongxu's nagging, he walked to the other side. Yao Tongxu pulled him back: "Your mother, grandparents and great-grandparents are all here. There's no one over there. They're all waiting for you to eat!"
Sure enough, upon entering, Xiao Gengwu saw a large group of people gathered in the dining room, including Ruan Shengpeng and the eagle-eyed man. He asked in surprise, "Why are you all here?"
Ruan Shengpeng pointed at the eagle-eyed man: "Your father is going with you this time. He will be in charge of supplies from now on. You can tell him what you need!"
Xiao Gengwu was surprised, but after looking at He Jiale, he understood. The Crown Prince had gone with them, so they had to make arrangements for everything!
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Yao Yanxin quickly called to Xiao Gengwu and Yao Tongjia, "Come and eat! We can talk about what we need to say later!" People who are going out should at least eat first!
Time was tight, so no one spoke, and everyone ate their food in silence, except for the children who tried to grab the food and made little noises.
He was particularly loud at the dinner table. Xiao Gengwu quickly finished eating, went over to check on his younger sister, and Xiao Yan handed her to him: "Do you want to hug her?"
Xiao Gengwu simply pinched his sister's cheek: "I dare not hug her!" He dared not hug this soft, cuddly child!
Xiao Yan scoffed: "You two might have a child soon, why don't you start studying? Are you going to be a hands-off parent?"
Xiao Gengwu thought of the physical contraception they had been using: "We don't plan to have children for the time being. I'm going to Shanxi Province now, so we'll have to wait until I'm around before we have children!"
He won't be like his lousy father, who only cares about giving birth but not about raising his children. He will be a good father!
"Children are a matter of fate. It's not that you can just not have them if you don't want them right now. Maybe the child is already on its way!" Grandma Xiao said casually as she walked over and hugged her granddaughter.
"I'm full, I'll hold the baby, you eat!" When there's a baby, mothers can never eat in peace. Luckily, there are extra people here, otherwise Xiao Yan would be even more restless.
Xiao Gengwu felt that everything was under his control, but he just smiled and didn't refute. Yao Yanxin turned around and went into the kitchen, taking out a large stack of baked flatbreads: "These are your provisions!"
Xiao Gengwu was somewhat touched: "Mom, we can take a plane there, we don't need to bring any food!"
Yao Yanxin shook her head: "The place you're going to must be very remote. If you arrive at night, you'll miss the mealtime, and the canteen staff will have already left. There won't be anything to buy for you if you want to eat!"
Xiao Yan finished her meal in a few bites, not daring to let the old lady hold too many children. Her daughter was quite mischievous these days: "Yan Yan, you're so thoughtful. You should accept A Geng, and there are also A Xu and Jia Le, your fathers!"
Xiao Gengwu had no choice but to accept it. Everyone said a few words, and half an hour passed. Everyone was sensible enough to leave first, leaving the young couple to walk at the very back.
Xiao Gengwu hugged Yao Tongjia tightly, saying, "Tongtong, don't work too hard. You can never earn all the money in the world!"
Yao Tongjia nodded: "You all need to take care of yourselves too. If you need anything, just tell me and I'll send it to you!"
Xiao Gengwu hugged Yao Tongjia tightly. He was now extremely grateful that he had acted swiftly and decisively before getting married. Otherwise, if he had returned this time, he would not have known when he would return again.
Before the two could exchange more than a few words, Yao Tongxu urged from outside, "Brother Xiao is leaving; we still have to go up the mountain!"
Xiao Gengwu led Yao Tongjia to the door, then let go of her hand, saying, "I'm leaving. Take care of yourself!" He got into the car without looking back, afraid that he might not be able to leave!
The eagle-eyed man was only going by plane this time. He touched his daughter's face reluctantly: "When Daddy comes back, don't forget me!"
Xiao Yan pushed his hand away: "Don't pinch our faces. Let's go. We'll be back in a few days, won't we?"
Hawkeye Man: "........" I've only been married for a few years, and my wife already dislikes me!
Ruan Shengpeng got into the car with them. Of the three people going this time, one was his son-in-law or son, and the other was the son of a leader. He had to go and see them.
The car sped away, and Yao Yanxin knew this feeling wasn't pleasant: "Tongtong, why don't you go take a nap? We'll wake you up for dinner later."
Yao Tongjia felt completely empty. The four of them had lived in the same place for several years during college, and usually one of them would be with her.
Now that the three of them have left together, leaving her all alone, she suddenly felt a little tired: "Hmm, I'm going to take a nap, wake me up later!"
As Yao Tongjia walked towards her room, her back looked somewhat weak. Yao Yanxin sighed, "Tongtong is all alone now; we can't let her stay in that building!"
Xiao Yan looked at her yawning daughter and said, "Let her come and stay at the military base. Anyway, she has a car, she can drive fast, and it's safe for her!"
Grandma Xiao agreed: "Living alone over there is too lonely, and it's easy to overthink things. It's lively here, and all unpleasantness is washed away!"
Yao Yanxin also hopes her daughter will come to stay here: "When she wakes up, I'll ask her. If she really doesn't want to stay there, then we need to pack up her things there!"
Yao Tongjia fell asleep, while Xiao Gengwu's plane had just taken off. The plane was loaded with a lot of supplies, and they barely managed to get a seat.
Looking in the direction where Yao Tongjia was, Xiao Gengwu secretly made up his mind to complete the mission as soon as possible and return to her side. He still hoped to be closer to Tongtong.
But what he didn't know was that what he thought was a short separation actually lasted for two whole years. During those two years, a lot happened, and a new person appeared in his life.
