I didn't care what happened to those bandits afterward, but I knew they deserved their punishment and were sent to where they belonged.
However, the move was quickly scheduled.
The news of the move came early on, and it started almost as soon as the autumn harvest was over. The process of allocating houses, preparing new houses, and moving took place over the next two weeks after the autumn harvest. The residential compound was completely emptied.
Simple and natural, they also had to move. Although the space couldn't see the light, no outsider knew exactly how much stuff they had. They simply put a lot of small items into the space, leaving only furniture, cabinets, sewing machines, and some vegetables harvested from the garden outside.
This time, the housing allocation was a bit more standardized. Although there were no restrictions like those for family compounds, the houses were arranged in rows close together. The front row, facing the street, consisted of shops, post offices, and other public places, while the back row was where the residences were located.
Although it wasn't an apartment building, it wasn't too chaotic either. One side was housing for active-duty soldiers and their families, and the other side was housing for veterans. The professors and teachers who had been invited back lived on one side of Qin Qinghuai's building, which was much quieter in comparison.
If we're talking about cheating, there was some, like the elderly men and women, the retired leaders. They actually had retirement homes, but they were in Beijing.
Here, we naturally followed local customs and lived next to Qin Qinghuai's courtyard, which was much larger than the family compound.
The military compound was busy with the relocation of the family quarters, so as soon as the belongings were delivered, the staff were quickly dismissed. When things were quiet, they could push all the work onto the staff, so it was best not to hold them back.
The courtyard here is twice the size of the previous one. The layout is not unusual; it's the usual layout here, with several main rooms, a kitchen in the middle, and bedrooms on both sides, but the bedrooms are all very large.
In rural areas of Northeast China, houses are often like this. Although they are called bedrooms, they are actually similar to living rooms. They are used for entertaining guests, meals, and other activities, serving as a multi-functional room.
The place is large, so there are many rooms. Besides the couple's bedroom, the inner room is used as the baby's room, and there are two more rooms on the west side.
The kitchen in the middle is also much more spacious, with stoves on both sides and two sizable rooms at the back for storing dish racks, firewood, farm tools, and other miscellaneous items.
After going around in circles, I simply and quickly found some commonly used items, put the larger ones away, and took out the smaller odds and ends when the child wasn't looking.
The little one, however, earnestly requested that the rabbit and the other kittens be put in the same room, but was simply and decisively refused.
"Mommy! It's cold outside, the bunny will get sick."
"no,"
Even without being a germaphobe, Jian Dan simply couldn't stand the smell in the house. The wolf cub was one thing, but if they moved the rabbit in, the house would truly be unbearable to smell.
"This is absolutely unacceptable."
"Mommy, Mommy! My bunny is sick, what should I do? She's so cold she has diarrhea!"
I simply pressed my fingers against her forehead and pushed her away.
"The rabbit's diarrhea wasn't caused by the cold; it was because you fed it meat and cold water. Don't think I don't know."
The little guy seemed a bit guilty, but he still stubbornly insisted on his word.
"Mommy, the bunny is craving meat too."
"Heh, I bet you fed the rabbit because you couldn't finish your own food."
A few days ago, Little Grey brought it back home, along with some prey. The little cub ate too much meat at once, so he simply pinched small pieces of meat and fed them to the rabbits and the other cubs. Although the wolf cub was small, it was still a wild animal, and it ate the small pieces and strips of meat.
That rabbit was a vegetarian, but they forced it to break its vows. Jian Dan was so angry and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The rabbit had diarrhea for three days, but it was lucky to survive, though it visibly lost a lot of weight and looked listless.
"Mom, is it really not going to work? What should we do with the rabbit?"
After the autumn harvest, the temperature here dropped rapidly. You need to wear a thick coat to go out in the morning and evening. When the little one went to feed the rabbits in the morning, he saw frost on the cabbage leaves and thought it was snowing. He was so scared that he kept saying that the rabbits were going to freeze to death.
The child was so enthusiastic, and I didn't want to discourage her, so after thinking for a moment and looking at the empty yard, I gave her some advice.
"Look, isn't there still some empty space in the yard? When Dad comes back, let him build a house for the rabbit, okay?"
That's what she was thinking too. The layout was similar to the family compound. She wanted to build two more side rooms in the courtyard, not brick houses, but mud houses like the ones before, to store some odds and ends and firewood.
The other room contains the little one's favorite things: rabbits, wolf cubs, and puppy cubs.
However, not having a cellar is a bit inconvenient. Vegetables grown here for the winter usually need to be stored in a cellar, and in the summer, she also occasionally needs the cellar for cover. So, it's still necessary.
However, none of this is urgent. If there is a man in the house, he should be given a chance to use his talents.
While things were still being tidied up, they were completely unaware that at the hospital, in order to retain that talented person who could train their troops, Commander Lin and her husband were almost selling her out. Finally, Cheng Chao said something...
Are you afraid you can't win?
This provoked Xiang Wenjing to become somewhat resentful.
"Let's not talk about anyone else. If you beat me within twenty moves, I'll stay."
Cheng Chao patted his chest,
"Come on, let's see if I'm afraid of you."
Regiment Commander Lin and Qin Qinghuai were crickets chirping nearby.
