"Then come and eat together. Comrade Wang, Comrade Gong, please help bring a set of bowls and chopsticks. You take these two guards to set up another table. We have something to discuss here." Yan Guofeng made arrangements quickly. Wang Daya and the other three led the guards and Feng Zheng to the kitchen.
Their kitchen is spacious, so it is no problem to put another table there; the key point is that they are discussing serious matters in the main hall and it is not easy to disturb them, and a new table cannot be placed in the main hall, or even too close to it.
After looking around, the kitchen is the only good place; it is spacious and warm, and will not disturb the host from entertaining guests.
"Comrades, please take a seat. Comrade Gong, Comrade Gu, Comrade Fang, you can set the table first. Dasha and the two comrades can take a seat first. I will go to the main room and bring a set of bowls and chopsticks." After giving Wang Daya's clear and organized instructions, she turned to the cupboard, opened the door, took out a set of bowls and chopsticks, washed them, and brought them to the main room.
When Wang Daya came in, Xi Nian was already sitting next to Yan Guofeng; she brought the bowls and chopsticks and then left.
Yan Guofeng smiled and said, "Comrade Xi Nian, I apologize for the poor hospitality."
"No way, I came here uninvited and disturbed you and Comrade Zhong's dinner." Xi Nian's face was hot. He was also anxious and behaved rudely.
Yan Guofeng chuckled, "Comrade Xi Nian, you heard from Yuxiu that you're going on a trip, right?"
"Yes." He nodded sincerely without hesitation, "You know how important Comrade Zhong is. If something happens to him while he's out there..."
Yan Guofeng did not respond, but turned his attention to his granddaughter-in-law.
Zhong Yuxiu asked, "Comrade Xi Nian, everyone has bad luck sometimes. Should we stay at home, eat, drink water, or work just because we're unlucky?"
"The meaning is different." There is an essential difference between being plotted against by others and being unlucky yourself.
"What's the difference? Am I staying at home just because someone wants to murder me?"
Xi Nian was completely confused when he was asked this question. Isn’t this how it should be?
"Comrade Zhong Yuxiu, I solemnly request that you pay more attention to your own safety. You must not be injured. Otherwise, it will be a loss for us and a dereliction of duty on our part."
"Comrade Xi Nian, you're too serious. I'm just going on a two-month trip. Comrade Gu and Comrade Fang will be there for my personal protection. I'm not going alone."
Xi Nian frowned in embarrassment, "Have you decided to go to another province?"
"Yes, I haven't been out for a walk in all these years. I feel a bit disappointed." After saying this with a sweet smile, Zhong Yuxiu added, "I've made some progress in my research recently, and I also want to go out and look for materials and minerals that can be used."
"Just tell me what you need and I'll ask someone to find it." There was no need for her to go in person.
Zhong Yuxiu said, "You haven't discovered what I need yet, nor have you invested in research. Right now, I'm not even sure if this mineral exists. I'll tell you once I'm sure."
"Do you really have to do this?" He ignored his own safety and insisted on doing it.
"Comrade Xi Nian, I think you're overly paranoid." Avoidance wasn't an option. "Well, while I prepare, I'll develop a tool to protect myself. With this tool, I won't be afraid of spies anymore. So, relax for now, and I'll invite you to come and see what I've developed."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Xi Nian nodded helplessly, "Okay, as long as what you're researching can ensure your safety, I won't interfere with you going out to play. If it can't, and you still insist on going, I'll go with you."
She doesn't have the habit of having a few little tails or something like that.
That night, Xi Nian stayed at the Yan family in Hongxing Village. The next day, he asked the guards to hand over the materials to Zhong Yuxiu. He wanted to say something several times but finally said nothing and left with the guards.
Zhong Yuxiu got the necessary materials and went into the laboratory. She first used the ready-made materials to make ten watches of different colors. Without Goudan's help, she could only use her mental power to operate it herself. Therefore, it took her three days to make these ten watches.
Every night she would go to sleep only after exhausting her mental energy. Afterwards, she would dig out the optical computer in the storage space and find relevant information about the defense shield from it. As a former interstellar researcher, this was all the information she needed to know.
The proportions and materials were flawed, one of which was how to sustain the energy required by the shield. With no other options, she could only transform the virtual energy shield into a physical one, implanting tiny pores within it to supply oxygen. These pores were extremely small and densely packed, and were strategically located at the bottom.
It took her half a month to finally succeed in her research. At the same time, she installed a positioning chip inside the protective cover, which would automatically alarm and provide the corresponding location once the protective cover was opened.
Yuxiu made a set first and couldn't wait to find someone to test it out; the test subject was herself, and the person who launched the attack was Fang Guozhong. This man was stubborn, but his fist power was still trustworthy.
"Comrade Fang, are you busy now?"
"Not busy." Fang Guozhong put down the clothes he was washing and turned to look at her; if Zhong Yuxiu didn't go out, they wouldn't go out either, and would always be on standby at the place closest to Zhong Yuxiu.
Zhong Yuxiu smiled and said eagerly, "Come, attack me."
"What?"
"Attack me, attack me with all your strength, use all your power." It's time to verify the results.
"No, no..."
Zhong Yuxiu's brows froze for a moment, then she understood and said, "You can do it, come and beat me."
Fang Guozhong:...It's over, Comrade Zhong has gone crazy, contact Xi Nian quickly.
Fang Guozhong turned and left, leaving Zhong Yuxiu bewildered. "Hey, Comrade Fang, why are you leaving?"
"Wait a minute, don't walk around." Maybe you've been staying in the lab for too long and are going crazy.
Yan Guofeng, who was in the main hall, looked away indifferently when he saw the man. But Fang Guozhong said, "Old Yan, something has happened. Let's quickly notify Comrade Xi Nian to come over."
"What happened?" Not knowing what was going on, Yan Guofeng looked puzzled.
"Comrade Zhong...maybe there's something wrong with his brain."
Yan Guofeng frowned, "What a mess."
"Really? Comrade Zhong actually asked me to hit her. Is there something wrong with her brain?"
"Why do I let you hit her? There must be a reason." He knew very well what kind of person his granddaughter-in-law was. She was not the kind of child who was pretentious and acting like a spoiled child.
Fang Guozhong frowned, "I don't know either. I was washing clothes when Comrade Zhong suddenly came out and asked me to beat her up with all my strength. How could I dare to do that?"
Yan Guofeng was also confused. He glanced at the door and put the child on the crib. "Comrade Wang, Comrade Gong, come over and look after the child. I'll be out for a moment."
"I'm here." Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi entered the main hall one after another. Their hands were still wet, having helped in the kitchen. Fortunately, the courtyard was not closed off, otherwise, if they were a little further away, they wouldn't be able to come at their beckoning. "Mr. Yan, where are you going?"
"Go out and take a look."
Yan Guofeng had already stood up and left the main room, leaving Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi looking at each other, while Fang Guozhong followed closely behind.
