Bai Yalan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Grandpa, look at what you said! Since you know that we completed this mission smoothly, it shouldn't be difficult to find out. This mission was not difficult at all. When we went there, the battle was almost over. The bandits had been captured, and only a few were left hiding in the mountains. When the reinforcements arrived, catching them was as easy as catching a turtle in a jar. It didn't take much effort, and the wounded were not seriously injured."
She feigned casualness and briefly recounted the mission. Of course, she didn't mention the disagreement and unpleasantness she'd had with Qin Kaishen. As she'd thought before, all other personal grudges pale into insignificance before the mission. These few personal grievances didn't really matter. Besides, hadn't Qin Kaishen ultimately been forced to apologize to her?
Bai Yalan thought about it, and the smile on her lips deepened. Seeing that she seemed to be in a good mood, Mr. Bai was relieved that she probably didn't suffer any hardship.
"Xiaolan, there is something grandpa wants to tell you." Old Master Bai coughed and cleared his throat.
Seeing Grandpa being so serious, Bai Yalan couldn't help but wonder, "What's the matter, Grandpa?"
Mr. Bai didn't waste any words and said directly, "Grandpa is going on vacation. You have to be careful during your next shift. Grandpa is not worried about anything else, but you."
Bai Yalan was a little surprised, but also delighted: "You want to take a vacation? That's great, I've always felt that you should have a good rest for a while. But why do you suddenly want to take a vacation? I don't think I've heard you mention it before."
As she spoke, she looked at her grandfather's body with a worried look. Could he be feeling unwell?
Seeing his granddaughter's anxious look, Mr. Bai immediately realized she had misunderstood and quickly explained, "Don't worry, Grandpa is fine, just taking a normal vacation. I may not have told you before, but special military doctors don't have to work all the time. Due to the special nature of their talents, this type of personnel doesn't necessarily have to be on duty all the time. They are more mobile, so naturally, they have relatively more vacation time."
Moreover, since they are all over 10 years old, the three special military doctors in the barracks are all re-employed talents who are over 10 years old.
Bai Yalan knew this without him having to tell her. Grandpa had long passed retirement age, and the only reason he still stayed in the army was because he had accepted a re-employment offer.
"Is that so? That's great. Grandpa, don't worry about me. I've grown up now, and there are some roads I'm destined to walk on my own. You can't always hold my hand, right?" She squatted down, held her grandfather's hand, and said sincerely.
Of course, at this time, she finally understood.
No wonder my grandfather has been working all the time and rarely resting recently. It turns out that he has been doing this to take care of me.
Her eyes couldn't help but turn red, and she looked at her grandfather with gray hair, feeling indescribably moved.
This is her grandfather, a stubborn old man who insists on taking her to work and carry out tasks for her even though he is already in his sixties.
The old man patted his granddaughter's head. "Grandpa knows you're a sensible and good child, and you know your limits, so I won't ramble on. Starting tomorrow, the organization will assign another top-grade military doctor to the medical department. She's a female comrade, and there are some things you might learn from her. You can observe her carefully and study diligently."
