Chapter 255 Young Soldier vs. Tsundere Lady (8)
In general, promotion is a great thing.
This means he has a brighter future.
However, it is not a good thing at this moment.
A higher military rank also means greater responsibilities.
From now on, Gao Fang is no longer just a small soldier, but an officer with greater responsibilities.
When faced with a crisis, one can no longer think about himself.
If it was a few months ago.
Jiang Ning might not worry so much, after all, she had seen the "future" that Gao Fang mentioned in the original book.
I know that Gao Fang has some aura of a protagonist, and he will live a safe, smooth, wealthy and prosperous life.
However, in the past few months, such a thing has happened.
Jiang Xinrou, Qin Jiulie, Lin Shijiao...
Everyone's future has changed because of her appearance.
What about Gaofang...
Does he also have a completely different future?
Those were things Jiang Ning could not have predicted.
Jiang Ning even hoped that Gao Fang would still be just a service soldier beside Qin Jiulie, which might be safer.
But for Gao Fang.
Everything he had to face after his promotion was what he had been looking forward to for a long time.
Jiang Ning was alone, with a lot on his mind.
Qin Jiulie and Gao Fang were working very hard.
Just at this moment.
A familiar clear voice suddenly sounded.
"Brother! Why...why are you doing these things? It's so dirty!"
As soon as Lin Shijiao walked to the front of Jiang Ning's yard, she saw Qin Jiulie working with his sleeves rolled up in the cold wind.
The black coal stained the man's pants and sleeves, and even his palms were stained with dirty coal.
This is no longer the majestic and awe-inspiring leader.
Lin Shijiao was stunned when she saw this scene.
Words of surprise came out of his mouth.
Qin Jiulie looked up when he heard the voice and frowned.
He asked in return, "Everyone is doing this, why can't I do it?"
"You are the head of a military region. When you were at home, neither your grandparents nor your parents ever let you do such work."
Lin Shijiao looked anxious and retorted subconsciously.
She didn't mean much by what she said. She simply felt that Qin Jiulie's identity and status did not allow him to do such dirty and tiring work.
But for Qin Jiulie, there is no such thing as should or should not.
Qin Jiulie's face was grim and he lowered his voice and said.
"What's the use of being a group leader or not? I'm at home right now. Look around and you'll see which man isn't working. What I'm doing now is what a husband should do."
A moment.
Lin Shijiao was speechless after being rebuked by Qin Jiulie.
She pursed her lips, looking embarrassed.
Obviously, I was concerned about Qin Jiulie at first, but for some reason, it changed like this.
Just as the brother and sister were confronting each other.
Jiang Ning was about to speak to ease the tense atmosphere.
But I didn't expect it.
There is someone who is faster than her.
"Ms. Lin, why are you here? Are you here to help General Qin deliver something again? You see, there are so many things, they are heavy to carry in your hands, let me take them."
Gao Fang suddenly spoke loudly.
He strode forward and rushed to take the things that Lin Shijiao was holding.
He turned around and said to Jiang Ning.
"Sister-in-law, I'll put the things in the house first, you can come back and pack them slowly."
Jiang Ning nodded towards Gao Fang.
After being reminded by Gao Fang, Qin Jiulie realized that Lin Shijiao's appearance, like the previous times, was to run errands for Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin.
The weather has been cold recently, and it’s not convenient for the two elderly people to come from such a long distance because of their age.
So Lin Shijiao comes here once a month.
Jiangning’s milk powder for pregnant women, nutritional supplements, and all kinds of delicious and fun things that are only available in the city.
As long as Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were thinking about them, they would keep sending them.
Jiang Ning packed a small box just for the children's clothes and toys.
Although it was stated that it was the intention of Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin, it was still hard work for Lin Shijiao to come here time and time again, traveling through mountains and rivers.
But Jiang Ning had never heard Lin Shijiao complain.
Every time Lin Shijiao came, she always looked arrogant, as if she was reluctant.
However, she conveyed every word that Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin told her to do, and also inquired carefully about Jiang Ning's situation after she became pregnant.
Jiang Ning also figured it out.
Lin Shijiao is a person who has a hard mouth but a soft heart, and a cold appearance but a warm heart.
This is quite consistent with the Qin family.
Jiang Ning had such a big accident in the small mountain village before, and Qin Jiulie and Jiang Ning didn't dare to tell Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin for fear that they would worry.
So it has been kept secret all along.
But it's not enough for them to keep it secret.
In the end, it was Doctor Pei who let the secret slip.
So Lin Shijiao came this time after Jiang Ning's accident, when Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were particularly concerned about her.
She brought a lot of things with her.
I carried it in my hands at the beginning and never complained of being tired along the way.
Unexpectedly, she was scolded because of what she said.
It is easy to imagine how upset the little girl felt.
Jiang Ning walked over and grasped Lin Shijiao's hand, feeling the icy cold temperature.
Lin Shijiao's fair fingers turned red from the pain.
"Jiaojiao, it's so cold, why don't you bring gloves? It's so cold."
"…I was in a hurry to go out and forgot about it."
Lin Shijiao's voice was followed by a pause.
At home.
Grandpa Qin only found out yesterday that Jiang Ning had an accident while pregnant. Although Doctor Pei said she was safe, Grandpa and Grandma Qin were still very worried.
I can't wait to come here.
In the end, it was Lin Shijiao who finally stopped him after much persuasion.
They live in different cities and are far away from each other.
Moreover, the road up the mountain has been frozen recently, so the car has to drive very slowly.
It was freezing cold, and it was impossible for Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin to endure sitting in a car for seven or eight hours.
So Lin Shijiao came alone.
Moreover, we set out very early in the morning and had a bumpy journey here.
She was also feeling uneasy along the way.
She was worried about Jiang Ning and also about the baby in Jiang Ning's belly.
The unspoken worry was exactly the same as that of Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin.
Jiang Ning touched her cold fingers, took off her gloves and put them on Lin Shijiao.
He also put Lin Shijiao's hands in her palms and rubbed them.
"Jiaojiao, let's go inside and warm ourselves up. There is hot water and a stove inside."
Lin Shijiao was led into the house by Jiang Ning.
She sat in the seat closest to the fireplace, looked up at Jiang Ning who was busy pouring water for her, and her belly which was a little bigger than when they met last time.
The words stuck in his throat, after hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke them out slowly.
"You...your stomach, is it okay now?"
"It's okay, everything is fine. It was really painful when it first happened, but look at me now, I can walk and do things. I'm fine, and the baby in my belly is also fine. Jiaojiao, did I make you worried?"
Jiang Ning sat down in front of Lin Shijiao, silently gazing at her with a pair of gentle eyes.
Under such a gaze, Lin Shijiao seemed to be bewitched.
She couldn't help but nodded slightly.
He responded, "Yeah."
