"Yes, regimental commander and political commissar, we understand. You can rest assured."
Even after leaving the canteen, the sound of sobbing could still be heard growing louder inside, and Commander Lin's eyes reddened again.
"You're not angry that I acted on my own, are you?"
The two of them hadn't discussed the large-scale vacation in advance, but thinking about it, Qin Qinghuai understood.
"This timing is perfect. They've just been intimidated and won't make any big moves in the short term. Their departure won't have much of an impact either."
Moreover, after this incident, when they all return from leave, some of their family members might even accompany them. Regardless of whether they are rich or poor, they will have seen our sincerity and hope.
What do you think?
"I won't say anything more. If I do, I'll have to call a meeting with the officers of each battalion and company to discuss the personnel and deployment arrangements for this period of time."
In these aspects, Qin Qinghuai, the pure political commissar, did not interfere much. The regimental commander was in charge of administration, while the political commissar was in charge of logistics and daily life. The division of labor between the two was very clear.
Upon hearing this, Qin Qinghuai didn't ask any further questions.
"Then you go ahead and do your thing. I'll go check on Brother Chao, then go home and see what my husband is like."
Ouch!
Commander Lin slapped his forehead.
"Hurry up, hurry up. Seeing such a bloody scene, and having not slept all night, you must be terrified and exhausted. You should go back now. I'm on duty today, so you don't need to come over."
Looking at the sky, the sun was setting, and it was indeed getting late. Qin Qinghuai didn't refuse.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Qin Yi and Zheng Aiguo were genuinely only slightly injured. Cheng Chao himself claimed it wasn't serious, but he had broken bones after all, with several ribs broken. Even if he were to crush someone, he would have no choice but to stay in bed obediently.
However, given his relatively agreeable attitude, the doctor reluctantly agreed to observe him tonight, and if there were no problems, he could go home to rest tomorrow.
Qin Qinghuai was speechless.
"Brother Chao, is this your skill?"
Cheng Chao had been a renowned figure in the military for many years, famous for his expertise in missions, and naturally possessed some survival skills. However, he was indeed somewhat wronged today.
"I had my ribs broken by it; I'm lucky to be alive."
"...Your life is in the hands of that bear, Brother Chao, is that glorious?"
......
Cheng Chao walked home bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, while Jian Dan was still fast asleep.
I woke up again to the enticing aroma and the nagging growl of my stomach, which encouraged me to open my eyes.
"Hmm, what delicious food did you make?"
Qin Qinghuai, wearing an apron, held a plate in one hand and a strainer in the other. A plate of scooped watermelon sat on the table. Without a word, he picked up a piece and popped it into his mouth.
Wow! Delicious and refreshing!
Then he went to the kitchen.
What delicious food did you make?
Qin Qinghuai handed her the plate he was holding.
"Go to the house and eat right away."
"Huh? It's not dumplings?"
"What, you want to eat dumplings?"
Qin Qinghuai wasn't oblivious to the trays of frozen dumplings; he preferred his wife to eat something he made himself rather than something ready-made.
"It doesn't taste good?"
Jian Dan had a piece of beef in her mouth, scalding it and refusing to let go, much to Qin Qinghuai's exasperation.
"There's so much meat, why are you fixated on just one piece?"
Beef, persimmon, and potatoes; crispy fried small fish; stir-fried bean sprouts with vinegar; plus watermelon—four simple dishes that are more satisfying than anything else.
“So crispy.
"But where did you get this little fish?"
There are fish in the water at her base, but she rarely catches them. She clearly remembers that she hasn't eaten any small fish since coming here, nor has she said she hasn't heard of them. So, this definitely isn't from her own farm.
Qin Qinghuai put a few more pieces on her plate.
Eat slowly, don't rush.
"These were fished out of the river by villagers from a nearby village; I traded them for something."
He spoke casually, but deep down he felt something was off.
"You, go and trade with the villagers yourself?"
"What's wrong? Is it not okay?"
She simply and silently lowered her head.
"It's not that, it's just that it's a little hard to imagine you going to bargain with the villagers with that kind of face."
Qin Qinghuai hadn't expected the topic to suddenly become somewhat ambiguous.
"Hehe, this is the only advantage of my face. It's not a loss that you've taken a liking to me."
While crunching away at the small crispy fish, Jian Dan suddenly remembered to ask what happened next.
"They've all come down?"
"Um,"
Speaking of this, Qin Qinghuai still felt a little uneasy.
"Honey, are you alright?"
"Of course I'm fine, what could possibly be wrong with me?"
"By the way, things should calm down for a while now, right?"
"......able,"
Qin Qinghuai was having some difficulty.
"Are these animals all from the mountains?"
"ah,"
Jian Dan was still crunching away on the small fish.
"Tonight, all the animals will have to run back to the deep mountains, and they shouldn't be coming out of the area for a while."
After eating for a while, I realized she was putting on a one-woman show, so I slowed down my eating.
"What's wrong? Aren't you going to eat?"
Qin Qinghuai considered himself quite resilient, but faced with simple innocence, he felt somewhat powerless and finally weakly voiced his question.
"They all want to know, how did you do it?"
He paused briefly, blinked,
Are you curious?
Qin Qinghuai pursed his lips and chose to be honest.
"curious.
However, if you don't want to say, then don't say anything; let them guess.
