Chapter 568 Someone has been murdered, help!
"How can I not be anxious? I'm now worried that we will end up like the Wu family. They are really too idle." Shen Tian couldn't help but say something impolite.
Xu Mingzhen and Yu Wanqing couldn't help laughing.
Zhuang's mother was listening and couldn't help asking, "Xiaowu, will everything be alright?"
"What could possibly happen? You are a relative of mine on my grandmother's side, and it's normal for you to live in my house for a while. Anyone who wants to investigate can do so." It just so happened that Huo Lanci's grandmother was from Ming County, Eastern Province, and the Zhuang family's hometown was also in Ming County.
Talking about this and that, they are relatives.
Seeing Yu Wanqing so calm, Zhuang's mother was no longer worried. She smiled and said, "Yes, we are relatives, we are not afraid of investigation."
She also didn't expect that the late Mrs. Huo was actually from their Ming County.
Xu Mingzhen and Shen Tian really thought that Zhuang's mother and the Huo family were relatives. Now, listening to them talking about Mingxian, they were more and more certain that they were distant relatives.
In their hearts, both of them cursed those people outside for eating and drinking without any preparation and looking for trouble.
It is normal for relatives to interact with each other, so why do they think that this is abnormal?
Shen Tian thought about going back and telling her mother about these things and letting her talk about them.
If someone knew that my sister-in-law and Aunt Zhuang were legitimate relatives, and still spread rumors or even reported them, I can only say that person really deserves to be punished.
The two girls stayed at home for a while before leaving. After they left, Zhuang's mother smiled and said, "The two girls are both enthusiastic people. Every time they see me, they ask if I need help."
Yu Wanqing nodded. Tiantian and Mingzhen were indeed the more enthusiastic people.
Xu Mingzhen has been coming more frequently recently. Every time she comes, she practices in the yard. Sometimes Huo Lanci and others will turn on the stove for her and take her to train nearby to improve her physical fitness.
She has a high level of comprehension, and under the training of several strict teachers, her skills are getting better and better.
Once she arrives in the Northwest, it will be easier for her to join the army.
After Shen Tian and Bai Qingshan got married, Xu Mingzhen boarded a train to the northwest.
Yu Wanqing knew that it was cold in the northwest, so she gave Xu Mingzhen one of her military coats that she had not worn yet, and also reminded her of things to pay attention to on the road.
On the day Xu Mingzhen left, it started snowing in Beijing.
Yu Wanqing stood under the eaves, looking at the heavy snow outside and fell into deep thought.
She has called her second brother and sister-in-law several times recently. Nian Nian has not had any predictive dreams since the last time she dreamed that her younger brother and sister were taken away.
Gao Qingmei also said that everyone was worrying too much about whether it was just an ordinary dream.
But Yu Wanqing knew in her heart that Nian Nian’s dream was not simple.
When Huo Lanci came back, he saw Yu Wanqing standing under the eaves. He wanted to call her back into the house, but then he thought, Xiaowu is not a willful person, she knows what she is doing.
Standing under the eaves at this time, he must be thinking about something.
He walked up to Yu Wanqing and did not ask any questions. Instead, he stood quietly with her for a while.
Yu Wanqing looked at the man beside her: "Do you think people really have the ability to change their fate?"
Huo Lanci smiled when he heard this and said, "My life is in my own hands."
"If it's someone else, then try your best. Even if the result is not satisfactory, at least you have a clear conscience." He held Yu Wanqing's hand and said softly, "Sometimes, if you care too much about gains and losses, you may lose more."
"Just do your job well, and let nature take its course for the rest."
The more you know, the more you carry, and the more troubles you have.
Huo Lanci felt that this would not be conducive to Xiaowu's pregnancy.
Yu Wanqing smiled and said, "I understand the reason, but I'm just afraid that the result will not be satisfactory."
As the day of leaving the parallel world draws closer, her pressure grows.
"Tell me, will Mingzhen meet my fourth brother after she arrives in the northwest?" Yu Wanqing took his hand and walked into the hall. After they closed the door, Huo Lanci breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the warmth coming from the house.
"The Northwest Army Camp is quite large, and Comrade Xu is a new recruit, so the possibility of him meeting the Fourth Brother is not great." Unless there is a chance for Xu Mingzhen to show her skills and stand out.
The best thing is to be able to enter the elite forces.
Otherwise, the possibility of any intersection between them is really slim.
Yu Wanqing nodded: "We have paved the way for her. It is up to her to decide how to proceed from now on."
Xu Mingzhen's entry into the Northwest Army Camp was a foregone conclusion, but whether she could move up after entering the camp would depend on her own abilities.
"You're right. You pity her because she's a talented person. She has done what she should do. How she walks in life is entirely up to her." Huo Lanci held her in his arms and said with a smile, "After I found out you were pregnant, my heart softened and I thought more."
Yu Wanqing nestled in Huo Lanci's arms. Aunt Zhuang had a day off today, so she took Ping An back to the Wen family courtyard. So she leaned calmly in Huo Lanci's arms, enjoying this rare warmth.
She smiled and nodded: "The workload has decreased, so I have more time and more things to think about."
"When you have time in the future, think more about me." Huo Lanci smiled and reminded Yu Wanqing: "Think of another nickname for the children."
The second leader has already said that he will give it a big name.
Huo Lanci thought that it was finally their turn to be nicknamed.
Yu Wanqing glanced at him and said, "You're overthinking. Grandpa, my parents, and my parents are all thinking of nicknames for the three children."
How can it be their turn?
Besides, with the elders helping them choose names, the couple only needed to pick out three nice names.
Isn’t it nice not to have to use your brain?
Huo Lanci heard this and felt that his daughter-in-law's words made sense, but he also felt that something was wrong.
He glanced at Yu Wanqing and said, "I help name the child, and it seems like we have lost our sense of participation."
"What's less? Just participate in the manufacturing process. Why do you have to work so hard for the rest?" Yu Wanqing muttered quietly, "You don't know how to appreciate what you have."
After hearing what Yu Wanqing said, Huo Lanci immediately shut up.
If he continued talking, his wife wouldn't know what to say.
A hundred miles outside Northwest Military Camp:
Xu Mingzhen never thought that she would be so unlucky that she would miss the bus to the military camp because of helping others.
She can only stay in a guesthouse near the train station for one night now, hoping that the snow will be lighter tomorrow and that there will be a car to go to the military camp tomorrow.
In the middle of the night, Xu Mingzhen heard someone shouting outside: "Someone's being murdered! Someone's being murdered! Help!"
After several months of medicinal baths, and with the rigorous training of Huo Lanci and others, Xu Mingzhen's hearing is much better than before.
When she heard the sound, she opened her eyes instantly, without even bothering to put on her coat, she opened the window and jumped down from the second floor.
She stepped on the snow and rushed to the source of the sound as fast as she could.
I saw two men holding a middle-aged aunt. One of the bad guys held a knife against the aunt's neck. Because he used too much force, the aunt's neck started bleeding.
There were also several men wearing thick cotton coats and holding weapons in their hands, staring closely at the two bad guys.
Xu Mingzhen recognized one of them as the police officer guarding the station.
