Chapter 104, Can You Protect Us?
After finally getting rid of everyone, the family was able to have a good talk.
"Qianqian, can you stay at home a few more days this time?" At home, Liu Ying is the one who most hopes that Qianqian will stay longer.
"Well, I'll stay longer this time. Brother Jianwen's vacation is longer." She saw the changes in him.
No longer as tight as before.
She was afraid that if he continued to tense up, his body would collapse.
"That's great." Liu Ying was so happy when she heard that she could stay for a long time.
They came back early this time, and there was still some time before the Chinese New Year. Since An Qianqian had to accompany Mao Jianwen, all the housework, big and small, was left to An's mother.
Although she didn't know what had happened to her son-in-law, she was still a little suspicious about him taking so much leave at once.
But since her daughter didn't say anything, she didn't ask any more questions.
With the help of the two mothers, New Year's goods and daily necessities are arranged.
"Brother Jianwen, it hasn't snowed yet, let's go for a walk in the mountains. Do you remember the place where you saved me? I wonder if the ginseng there has grown big." When she left, she gave people some fog water.
"Okay, I'll change my shoes." Mao Jianwen never refused her requests.
As soon as Pingping and his friends returned to the village, they started playing and fighting with the villagers, so their parents didn't have to worry at all.
Xingzi and his family became independent as uncles, and the four children were brought up very well.
Only Shitou would be a little nervous.
Looking at Yuanyuan running around there, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
An Qianqian and her husband went into the mountains, carrying their backpacks.
After the two left, Li Yulan put away the smile on her face and looked at her mother-in-law.
"Mother-in-law, has something happened?" She noticed something was wrong the moment she received the person, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
Mother An shook her head and said, "I don't know either." Even though they lived together, she rarely asked about her daughter and son-in-law's affairs.
"I feel really bad. It seems like something must have happened to Jianwen. Qianqian is too nervous about him." Li Yulan saw everything.
"But it doesn't seem like that. When he was at home, he went to get off work and came home normally every day, and picked up the children from time to time. If you want to say that something happened, I don't think it seems likely." An's mother didn't think so.
"No, it must be that something happened to Jianwen. He is usually not on time for work, but suddenly he is on time. That must be wrong." Li Yulan hoped that her son was okay.
But judging from the current situation, it might be her son who got into trouble.
Not sure what it was, it seemed she had to ask.
The two old mothers were so caring.
And the person being cared for is walking freely in the mountains.
"You know, there are so many mountains here, can we find a lot of precious medicinal herbs?" They are all gifts from nature, so it's okay to pick more.
"I don't know, but I'm afraid there aren't any nearby. The surrounding areas have been visited by several teams. Even if there are any, they have been picked by others." When he is with her, he will feel much more relaxed.
"Then let's go deep into the mountains?" she suggested.
"Not today. If you want to go into the mountains, tell your parents someday and we'll go in with the things." He loved to pamper her.
I just like her making demands on herself.
Only then did he feel that he was needed. Over the years, she had been the one supporting the family, and he had done so little.
What she gets is not as much as others, so she is at a disadvantage.
"Forget it. If they really come, the little ones won't accept it." He knows his own children well. If he really doesn't take them with him, he's afraid they will make a big fuss.
Mao Jianwen did not refute. He understood in his heart that it was fine during the day, but at night, the four little ones would look for their mother, and they would definitely not be able to sleep if they couldn't see her.
"Then let's go back later today."
In the mountains, he felt much more relaxed and less depressed.
He felt safe only with him and her.
In the mountains in winter, apart from some people who go out to look for food, there are also those who freeze to death. There are no more people.
After visiting many places, An Qianqian lost interest.
They found a flat ground, picked up some firewood, and started barbecuing.
"Brother Jianwen, can you please not keep anything to yourself? I'm scared." After eating, An Qianqian leaned on his shoulder and expressed her fear.
"You've been acting strange these days, and it's made me scared. Brother Jianwen, please promise me that you'll be fine, okay?" She raised her head and looked straight at him.
Mao Jianwen was stunned for a moment, "Have you been scared recently?" He was a little at a loss.
An Qianqian nodded and shook her head: "If something really happens, I'm not afraid. I'm just afraid of you being like this now. I don't know what you're thinking, and you won't tell me what's in your heart."
After saying that, she felt a little aggrieved: "You were not like this before. In the past, except for some things that could not be said, you would tell me everything, whether it was happy or sad."
She is accusing, she is complaining, she is afraid, she is worried.
These days, not only he was depressed, but she was too.
She has to take care of him while also taking care of the adults and children at home, which puts her under even greater pressure.
Seeing her crying, Mao Jianwen panicked for a moment, but he quickly reacted, "Qianqian, don't cry, I'm fine, really, believe me."
Of course he has realized that something is wrong with him recently, and this may have frightened him.
Before, he would not be scared.
On the contrary, he was happy, happy that the country needed him and happy that he could contribute to the country.
But it’s different now, he has a home.
There is someone he cares about more.
He is a human being, and he would also be afraid. Thinking about the infiltration of TW, if his information is exposed, the greatest harm would be to his family.
No matter who it is, he can't accept it.
After holding her in silence for a while, Mao Jianwen expressed his concerns.
This time, he did not speak in a light-hearted manner as before, but rather expressed some very radical ideas.
I feel that he will definitely bring harm to his family and cause her harm.
After hearing this, An Qianqian burst into tears.
"Why are you so stupid? I'm fine. I have the ability to protect myself, and I believe you can protect me and the children." These days, he has been keeping this worry in his heart.
Even if it was said out loud, it was done in a joking manner.
But he thought too seriously, too deeply, and too bitterly.
"Brother Jianwen, I don't know how other military wives are doing, but I know that I can protect myself and my children. You know my abilities, so please don't worry, okay?"
Holding his head, he asked him to look straight at him: "We must trust the country. The country will never let us be harmed."
Mao Jianwen was very moved. He didn't want to see her cry, not at all.
"No, I believe in the country, but I don't believe in certain people in the country. Those people can do anything for money. The captain of the fifth company this time is a good example." What he feared was never the country, but those selfish people.
Afraid they might hurt them.
