Yi Xiaoqiu and Grandma Li left the Wang family.
"Grandma Li, thank you for coming here today. I can't even find a way to buy a house!"
Grandma Li was surprised by Yi Xiaoqiu's bargaining just now, but now she calmed down and thought that the price of the Wang family's courtyard was really high.
"Xiao Qiu, you should think about it carefully. I'll ask you about the other things when the time comes."
Grandma Li didn't dare to directly say that the Wang family's house was shabby and sold at a high price, but her actions revealed her inner thoughts.
Yi Xiaoqiu smiled and did not refuse Grandma Li's kindness.
"Okay, please ask for me again. It would be better if the house is bigger. I don't want to be like Grandpa Li's family, with the whole family squeezed into one yard."
Grandma Li was suddenly shocked.
What's Xiaoqiu's family background? From the way she spoke, it seemed like she was planning to buy more than just one yard!
"Xiaoqiu, are there many people in your family?" Grandma Li couldn't help but ask.
As for why she thought it was because Yi Xiaoqiu's family had many people, it was because she was misled by Yi Xiaoqiu's tone of wanting to buy several courtyards.
Old Master Ji has a house, and their big yard is more than enough for Yi Xiaoqiu, Ji Shuyan and their future children to live in. However, it is different for Yi Xiaoqiu's parents' family. Maybe they want to move to Beijing after seeing their daughter marry in Beijing.
That’s what Grandma Li thought.
Yi Xiaoqiu didn't explain, "My mother's family is quite large. There are four of us, including my brothers and sisters."
Grandma Li’s words reminded me.
The future development of Beijing is unquestionable. Does she also want to bring the Yi family to Beijing?
But it is definitely not possible now. We have to wait until after the reform and opening up, when the two brothers of the Yi family may be able to come here to develop.
As for Yi's father and mother, Yi Xiaoqiu has even less hope now.
The couple has worked in the factory all their lives and is about to retire and receive their pension. If they come here, it will probably be their post-retirement life.
Grandma Li nodded. It seemed that Xiaoqiu’s family was planning to come to Beijing.
As for why Grandma Li didn't want Yi Xiaoqiu to buy a house by herself, it was because she didn't expect Yi Xiaoqiu, a girl, to have so much money.
"Beijing is good. It's the capital after all."
The two returned to the alley while chatting.
"You'd better think carefully about this Wang family's house." Grandma Li left this sentence and went back to her home.
Yi Xiaoqiu also turned around and returned to the Ji family.
As soon as she entered the yard, she found Ji Shuyan sitting under the pomegranate tree, looking at her.
"Why are you here?" Yi Xiaoqiu walked over and sat down beside him.
Ji Shuyan looked at Yi Xiaoqiu with a sad face, "I have to go on a mission, let me tell you something."
Yi Xiaoqiu thought that the mission Ji Shuyan mentioned was the same as before and that he would be back in a few days, but she didn't expect...
"When will you be back?"
"Half a year to a year." Ji Shuyan said in a low voice.
What!
Half a year to a year?
Why did it take so long this time?
Yi Xiaoqiu suddenly stood up and glanced at Ji Shuyan.
That shaky look in his eyes is asking, "Is it true?"
Ji Shuyan has been away for a year or so, so what about her mission?
The child was born, but he still couldn't see his father. This...
But when he thought about how they were risking their lives for the country, Yi Xiaoqiu felt indescribably complicated.
Ji Shuyan nodded with difficulty.
Recently, the small country in the south has been ready to make a move. He learned the news from above and applied for the border without saying a word.
In recent years, due to his health, his superiors have not assigned him any dangerous tasks. This time, he does not want to miss this opportunity.
Ji Shuyan didn't tell Yi Xiaoqiu that he was from the border of a small country in the south of Dong, for fear that she would worry.
Yi Xiaoqiu sat down on the chair again. As for asking Ji Shuyan not to stay in Beijing, Yi Xiaoqiu couldn't bring himself to say it.
Even though he was injured in such an awkward place on his body, he still insisted on staying in the army and even went on some missions from time to time. From these, it can be seen that Ji Shuyan loves his current job very much.
Obviously, he also regarded this as his lifelong goal to strive for, and she couldn't selfishly let him give up his goals and pursuits for her.
Besides, people nowadays attach great importance to the honor of the country and the team. Yi Xiaoqiu couldn't say such words, which would make her seem selfish and narrow-minded.
It seems that the completion of her mission will be delayed again.
A trace of helplessness flashed across Yi Xiaoqiu's face.
She herself had not expected that, because of the mission of the leader, she accidentally cured Ji Shuyan's health, and as soon as he recovered, he would work for the country.
The mission is stuck again.
Now, Xiaocha can't blame her for not paying attention, it's just that reality doesn't allow it.
Ji Shuyan's eyes were always on Yi Xiaoqiu's face. When he saw the expression on Yi Xiaoqiu's face, an impulse surged in his heart and he didn't want to leave.
However, this impulse was suppressed by him in an instant.
No one knows whether to go to war with the small country in the south, but it is their duty to safeguard the interests of the country.
Only when there is a big family can there be a small family. As a soldier, Ji Shuyan knows this truth best.
After a few breaths, Yi Xiaoqiu could only accept this reality.
"When are we leaving?"
"Leave early tomorrow morning."
"So urgent?"
Yi Xiaoqiu felt inexplicably nervous.
Ji Shuyan felt uncomfortable when he saw Yi Xiaoqiu like this.
He didn't care that the two of them were still in the yard, and with his big hands he grabbed Yi Xiaoqiu and held her in his arms.
"You..." Yi Xiaoqiu didn't expect Ji Shuyan to pick her up in the yard.
Ji Shuyan was an extremely reserved and restrained person. Except when they were in bed, he would indulge himself. Once they were out of bed, he had never had any intimate behavior or actions with her outside of the room.
Yi Xiaoqiu really didn't expect that Ji Shuyan would hug her in his arms somewhere other than the bed.
You know, Aunt Liu is still busy in the kitchen at this moment. She can see what's going on in the yard just by looking up.
That’s not all. Ji Shuyan stood up holding Yi Xiaoqiu and walked towards the main house.
Yi Xiaoqiu was so scared that she hugged his neck and buried her head in Ji Shuyan's chest.
Not to mention, she felt a little embarrassed when she thought about Aunt Liu and Grandpa Ji might be looking at them.
"You...it's not hot in the yard, so we talk the same way as we do in the yard..." Yi Xiaoqiu whispered.
Yi Xiaoqiu felt the other person's strong heartbeat and hot chest, and his body began to heat up inexplicably.
"I want to talk to you quietly for a while." Ji Shuyan's voice was a little hoarse.
Yi Xiaoqi didn't look up, nor did she see the lustful look in Ji Shuyan's eyes when he looked at her.
For the past half month, he has been serving in the army alone, and not a single night has he slept as soundly as he did when Yi Xiaoqiu was with him.
At this moment, he just wanted to be closer to Yi Xiaoqiu, closer...
