She continued to wash up with brisk steps. Looking at her granddaughter's relaxed appearance, Grandpa was sure that apart from the physical fatigue, she should have no other problems in this mission. He finally felt relieved.
Yalan originally wanted to wait for her parents to come back so that she could talk to them, but she underestimated the extent of her physical fatigue and fell asleep almost as soon as she touched the bed.
My father and mother came home very late. It was the peak season for business recently, and the business in the store was so good that they were busy until midnight every day before going home.
When she returned, the old man was still awake. Hearing that his daughter had returned from her mission, both her father and mother were overjoyed. The mother even put down her bag and wanted to go into the room to see her precious daughter, whom she had been worried about for days. But the old man stopped her, saying, "The child must have been very tired these past few days and went to bed early. She's probably fast asleep now, so let's not disturb her."
Mother Qi had no choice but to give up, feeling heartbroken again.
After returning to the house, she spoke to her father: "Old Man, let's go to the store later tomorrow. There's no end to making money, and it's all for our daughter. She's been on a mission for several days this time, and she must be exhausted. I want to get her some extra food tomorrow so she can have some good nourishment."
Daddy responded straightforwardly, "Okay, that's what I said. Anyway, didn't Dad just say that my daughter has been granted two days of leave this time?"
"Yes, yes." My mother said, "But I'm still a little worried. Our daughter's body is a lot stronger after training, but I'm still worried that she won't be able to handle it... eh?!"
As her mother was speaking, she paused. She held down her father's restless hand, her face flushed, and muffled her voice from under the quilt: "What are you doing? Aren't you tired at this time of night?"
Daddy hugged his wife, his breathing getting hot, and muttered, "I always feel that it would have been great if we could have given Xiaolan another brother or sister."
If his daughter had a younger brother or sister, perhaps the old man wouldn't have placed all his hopes on her alone. Although the old man had high hopes for his granddaughter, and the couple were happy for their daughter's success, they couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Forget it, our time was different from when the old man was. We were both working, and the policy doesn't allow us to have two children. Besides, we are already this old now, so please don't make trouble."
But his father turned the man over without caring, and turned over to cover him, "We are now laid off and have started our own businesses..."
"That won't do either. We are all military families. Don't mess around!"
"...Okay, okay, if you don't want to mess around, then don't mess around. Normal physical needs are fine, right? After all, didn't we agree to go to the store later tomorrow? Honey, tonight you give it to me..."
"You bastard!" Mom cursed, her voice gradually getting lower and lower, and in the end only two gasps of varying thickness were left, intertwined together.
Yi Yalan slept soundly until dawn, completely unaware that her father had discussed giving her a younger brother or sister last night out of concern for her.
When she got up, dressed, and opened the door, the aroma of food wafting through the room made her hungry stomach tremble.
Yi Yalan took a deep breath and walked quickly to the kitchen, only to find that her mother, who had been busy out early in the morning, was now busy in the kitchen.
