Xiao Yihan snorted disdainfully, "No matter how cunning the enemy is, they cannot escape the eyes of the people. Those who commit many evil deeds will eventually perish. Qiao Rucheng will surely be nailed to the pillar of shame in history."
The backyard suddenly became lively because Sun Xiaojun and his friends had returned.
They brought back two baskets of big fish, distributed some to the kitchen in front, and left most of them for Chu Jingqiu and the others.
Chu Jingqiu said happily, "Yihan, let's make dumplings tonight! Everyone should eat in the big kitchen! We're celebrating your successful completion of the mission."
Xiao Yihan smiled and said, "I think it's okay. We can have a small celebration banquet tonight to congratulate us on capturing Ma Zhenshan, killing Qiao Rucheng, and completely resolving the crisis in Daqing Mountain."
After hearing what Xiao Yihan said, everyone cheered happily.
Everyone had a clear division of labor. Some were cutting vegetables and chopping meat, some were mixing the stuffing, and they were making dumplings together. Everyone was busy chatting, and the whole kitchen was filled with laughter.
Chu Jingqiu and the others cooked a few more dishes, including stewed chicken with mushrooms, stewed bones with sauerkraut, braised fish, blood sausage with mashed garlic, sweet and sour shredded radish, fried peanuts, minced meat and vermicelli, and hot and sour bean sprouts.
After cooking, Chu Jingqiu specially changed into the new clothes that Xiao Yihan bought her for the New Year, which really surprised everyone.
Xiao Yihan looked at her beautiful smiling face and felt filled with happiness.
Chu Jingqiu took out a few bottles of white wine and two bottles of red wine from the bedside table, actually from the space, and said that they were bought when his grandfather came and they were not finished yet.
Dinner was ready, and plates of steaming dumplings and several carefully cooked dishes were served on the table.
Everyone sat around the table and enjoyed the delicious dumplings and delicacies.
The dumplings have delicious fillings, thin skin and large fillings, and taste excellent. Everyone enjoyed the food while sharing their experiences and feelings of completing the task.
The tense and depressing atmosphere at the educated youth site for so many days also disappeared with everyone's laughter and joy.
Jiang Qingzhou and the others also drank happily. At the end, they were all helped into the room by others.
The next day, Tang Guoqing and the other three packed their luggage and followed Captain Guo and his team's military vehicle back to the army early.
The villagers of Qingshan Brigade knew that these PLA soldiers came here specifically to help them catch spies and protect their safety, so they all came to see them off.
Some villagers even tried to stuff some of their own dried red dates, walnuts and other nuts, as well as some dried sweet potatoes, into the hands of the people on the military vehicles, but they were all rejected.
On the third day after the celebratory banquet, Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue did not want to disturb the villagers again, so they got up early and prepared to return to Beijing.
Chu Jingqiu got up early and cooked some dumplings that he had frozen that day for the two of them. He also let them drink a big bowl of dumpling soup. He didn't stop until they were full and their bodies were warm from drinking the soup.
They also prepared some dried chicken and dried rabbit, nuts, dried persimmons, and dried sweet potatoes for the two of them, as well as some frozen pears and sweet potatoes, before reluctantly sending them out of the educated youth site.
Xiao Yihan felt sorry for Chu Jingqiu, worried that she would freeze if she stood outside for too long, so he urged her, "Xiaoqiu, go back quickly! Don't catch a cold. Take good care of yourself, and remember to write to me often, preferably once every three days."
Chu Jingqiu nodded and repeatedly reminded Xiao Yihan to pay attention to safety and be careful when performing tasks.
Qi Yue was grinning on the side as Du Yueming came over carrying the luggage, followed by Zhang Pingping and the Du family.
After all the spies in Daqingshan were wiped out, Du Yueming's mission was completed. Although the New Year was approaching, as a soldier, he should return to the team.
Zhang Pingping and Du's mother reluctantly sent Du Yueming to the car. Everyone watched the jeep gradually go away until it was completely out of sight, and then they dispersed.
In the blink of an eye, it was the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month. Early in the morning, Chu Jingqiu, Shi Aihong and Lin Zishan boarded an ox cart to attend Qian Yunyun's wedding.
When the three of them arrived at Qian Yunyun's house, Qian Yunyun had almost finished packing. She was wearing a brand new military uniform and had her hair tied up. She looked beautiful and energetic.
Qian Yunyun's face was filled with a happy smile as she warmly welcomed Chu Jingqiu, Shi Aihong, and Lin Zishan. Chu Jingqiu gave Qian Yunyun 10 yuan as a gift and also privately gave her a new bed sheet and a pair of pillowcases.
Shi Aihong and Lin Zishan were not very close to Qian Yunyun, but she had helped them find ways to make money, so each of them contributed 5 yuan.
Zhang Pingping was pregnant and felt lazy, so she asked the three people to bring the money over.
In Qian Yunyun's yard, Chu Jingqiu also met Qian Yunyun's father, Qian Guoqiang. Chu Jingqiu had not seen him for several months since Ma Mengjiao's case was concluded.
He is much thinner than before and his hair is much whiter. It seems that Li Mengxue's death was a big blow to him. It can be seen that he is very happy about Qian Yunyun's marriage this time.
Seeing Chu Jingqiu coming, he said happily: "Jingqiu, welcome to Yunyun's wedding. Yunyun has been thinking about you for many days. You must accompany Yunyun well today. Uncle will leave Yunyun to your care today!"
Chu Jingqiu smiled and said, "Don't worry! Uncle, I'm here to accompany Yunyun today. I will definitely keep an eye on her and will definitely not allow those who make excessive noise to get close to her."
Chu Jingqiu also saw Qian Xiaobao in the crowd. Qian Xiaobao had grown taller than a few days ago and was no longer a little fat boy. After losing weight, Qian Xiaobao's eyebrows and eyes were exactly the same as Qian Guoqiang's.
It seems that Ma Mengjiao did not lie. Qian Xiaobao is indeed Qian Guoqiang's son. Qian Xiaobao seems to be more sensible than before. He takes the initiative to serve tea and water to the guests and greets them sweetly.
Chu Jingqiu glanced at Qian Xiaobao, waved at him, and called him over, "Xiaobao, do you still recognize your sister?"
Qian Xiaobao said politely: "Hello, Sister Jingqiu, of course I recognize you. You are the most beautiful sister I have ever seen. I haven't seen you for a few days. You are more beautiful than before."
Chu Jingqiu smiled and touched his little head. "Xiaobao, you are getting more and more handsome. You are so sweet and sensible. I like you more and more."
After saying that, she took out a bag of dried meat and a toy gun from her bag and gave them to him. "Here! This is a gift from your sister. I hope Xiaobao will become smarter and smarter!"
Qian Xiaobao happily accepted the gift and said, "Thank you, Sister Jingqiu. I really like this gift. I'll show it to Xiaoqiang and the others later. They'll be so envious."
Qian Xiaobao took the gift and went to play happily.
Qian Yunyun saw the situation here and said with a smile: "Jingqiu, no wonder Xiaobao often mentions you, it turns out that he likes the gifts and food you give him.
This guy's little mouth is probably talking non-stop now, making my dad laugh every day."
