Chapter 266: It’s hard to stay alone in an empty bed, right?

While eating rice balls, the weather, which had been fine, suddenly turned into dark clouds.

The weather on the island changes suddenly without any warning.

It's going to rain again.

Jiang Rou thought of what Zhao Guifen said in the morning, that something happened on the island next door, and Doctor Pei and his men went to help, but they didn't know how serious the situation was.

With another storm and rain, the situation on the sea will only get worse.

Maybe even the ship won’t be able to return.

She was feeling uneasy.

Eventually, all this anxiety became a reality.

When it was almost dark, Zhao Guifen came to see Jiang Rou again and told her some bad news.

Zhou Chongshan also went on a mission.

Early in the morning, they went to other islands with Doctor Pei.

In the surrounding sea area, in addition to the island where they live, there are many other islands of varying sizes.

Those small islands are inhabited by villagers.

But compared to the island where they were, there was electricity, troops stationed there, a production brigade, and relatively complete infrastructure...

The surrounding small islands are quite difficult and poor.

Transportation and communication are inconvenient.

The only way to communicate is through the old radio.

Sometimes when encountering extreme weather, communication equipment will simply fail.

For example, last night was like that.

There were only strong winds and heavy rains on the island where they lived, but on other small islands there were strong winds and huge waves, causing landslides and mudslides.

After the communication failed, even a distress signal could not be sent out.

It was only after the wind and rain stopped in the morning that a weak signal came.

The military immediately dispatched rescue forces and medical teams.

I don’t know what the situation is over there or what the situation is like now.

The wind and rain at night undoubtedly made the existing disaster situation even worse.

All Jiang Rou could do was pray silently that the storm would end soon and that no one would be casualties.

Zhao Guifen knew that Jiang Rou had just experienced Zhou Xiaohua's illness during the day, and in the evening she learned that Zhou Chongshan was on a mission and could not come back, and she was worried that she must be feeling bad.

So I felt relieved.

"Sister Rou, don't think too much. This kind of mission happens every ten days or half a month. It's much safer than when they went to the battlefield before, and everyone in the unit is together. Captain Zhou will definitely be fine. Maybe he will be able to come back tomorrow morning when the wind and rain stop. And Captain Liang is also there. You can rest assured with Captain Liang around."

"Captain Liang is there too?"

Jiang Rou asked again uncertainly.

Zhao Guifen nodded, "That's right, I've found out everything. With Captain Liang here, no matter how big the problem is, it won't be a big deal."

Jiang Rou was thinking about other things.

Liang Guangming also went on a mission, which meant that Lin Yulan's decision to keep the child had not yet been told to Liang Guangming.

I don’t know how Liang Guangming will react when he finds out.

After a brief trance.

Jiang Rou quickly collected her thoughts and said, "Sister Guifen, don't worry about me. I'm not that fragile."

"That's right, Sister Rou has always been the strongest. I'll go back to cook first. If you feel bothered, come to the next room and find me. We can just talk."

Zhao Guifen waved to Jiang Rou, turned around and walked away into the rain mist.

Jiang Rou exhaled slowly and adjusted her mood silently.

Turn around.

I met two pairs of dark, equally worried eyes.

Zhou Xiaohua was fine, she just understood that Zhou Chongshan would not go home, but she did not understand the danger behind it.

But Zhou Xiaochuan was mature beyond his years and had already understood the details.

He looked up and asked, "Dad isn't coming home tonight?"

"Well, he's not coming back. How about the three of us sleeping together in the big bed tonight?"

Jiang Rou suggested with a smile.

Sleep together?!

When Zhou Xiaohua heard this, her whole face lit up.

Although sleeping with her brother is also comfortable, she likes sleeping with her mother the most.

Soft and fragrant.

It's like holding a huge piece of White Rabbit candy~

Sleep is especially fragrant spray.

Zhou Xiaohua hurried over, hugged Jiang Rou's thighs, shook her head and nodded wildly.

She wants three people to sleep together, sleeping in the middle!

On one side is my brother, on the other side is my mother!

This is the best!

Jiang Rou said, "Okay~ Let's let Xiaohua sleep in the middle~ Mommy and brother will protect you together and prevent you from having nightmares."

Zhou Xiaohua was very happy.

After Jiang Rou agreed to the little girl, she touched Zhou Xiaochuan's head.

She comforted him, "Xiaochuan, don't think too much. Dad is just going on a mission and will be back tomorrow morning. Nothing will happen."

"Um."

Zhou Xiaochuan responded softly.

The rain this night was a little lighter than last night.

But it still rained heavily all night.

It still didn't stop until dawn the next day.

Jiang Rou went out early in the morning to tidy up the small vegetable garden in the yard that was messed up by the wind. When she looked up at the sky, she actually saw a rainbow.

"Xiaochuan! Xiaohua! Come out and look! There's a rainbow!"

Jiang Rou's shout not only called out Zhou Xiaohua and Zhou Xiaochuan, but also Zhao Guifen in the next yard, as well as Da Huzi and Er Huzi.

They stood in their yard and looked up at the blue sky.

In the sky on one side, I saw a crescent rainbow.

So big.

Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.

The seven colors are clear and distinct.

"Wow...it's really a rainbow! I've never seen a rainbow this big before."

"Brother, look, it's really a rainbow..."

"Idiot, do you need to tell me? I have eyes and can see..."

In Zhao Guifen's house next door, Da Huzi and Er Huzi were still quarreling.

Zhou Xiaohua stood on tiptoe, trying to see more clearly.

Jiang Rou simply picked her up.

Standing higher, it seems like I am closer to the sky.

It is said that seeing a rainbow indicates good luck.

Jiang Rou's mood also became brighter along with the gorgeous rainbow.

…

After breakfast that day, Jiang Rou took Zhou Xiaohua to send Zhou Xiaochuan to school.

I can meet other sisters-in-law on the way back and ask about Zhou Chongshan's mission.

She left the school gate and was stopped on her way back to the compound.

"Sister Rou, have you sent your kids to school? I heard that Captain Zhou was on a mission. Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"Of course! Sister Rou and Captain Zhou have only been married for a few months. They are considered newlyweds. It must be hard for her to stay alone in an empty bed all of a sudden, right?"

"My sisters-in-law have been through this before, and they have experienced it a lot. It's all good now, but in the past, they were on missions for several months or even half a year, and those were really tough."

"Sister Rou, how did you sleep last night? Do you want the sisters-in-law to teach you how to relieve your boredom?"

The hot topic of the 1970s is back online.

Jiang Rou did not find out about Zhou Chongshan's mission, but instead became the target of ridicule by the sisters-in-law.
