"Captain Lu, Commander Zhu has notified you to go to the office now."
Lu Jingchuan had just finished washing the dishes when Commander Zhu's guard came over to inform him. He immediately said something to Gong Linglong and strode to the leader's office.
He came back half an hour later. As soon as he pushed the door open and walked in, Gong Linglong asked, "Brother Jing, are you going out on a mission?"
"Linglong, this is not a mission."
Lu Jingchuan locked the door, walked over to sit next to her, and told her, "Linglong, the higher-ups are planning to form a special elite force. The members selected are all top elites from various military regions, and I'm on the list."
He didn't give any details, but Gong Linglong had already guessed that this team was the special forces of later generations, and that they would be carrying out the country's top secret missions in the future.
Gong Linglong never asked too many questions about his work, only asking, "When are you leaving?"
"tomorrow."
Now she is pregnant with triplets and there is no one to take care of her. Lu Jingchuan is actually very worried about her.
Seeing that they were leaving in such a hurry, Gong Linglong frowned, "Are they being recruited for training now?"
"Yes, we will gather for training and then conduct assessment. Only those who pass the assessment will stay, and those who fail will be sent back to their original units. The training period is tentatively set at three months." This was all Lu Jingchuan could tell her.
It was already mid-to-late October, and by the time his three-month training camp was over, it would be Chinese New Year.
If I had chosen to be a military wife, I would have supported him bravely. "Brother Jing, go ahead. Don't worry about me."
"I can move around freely now and can cook and do housework myself. If I'm really tired and don't want to move, I'll go to the cafeteria to get food. Also, my mother should be back soon. If I need help while she's away, I'll go find my sister-in-law next door and Aunt Yuan and the others."
Lu Jingchuan nodded and held her hand, reluctant to let her go: "Linglong, you have to take good care of yourself. When you feel unwell and it is inconvenient for you to go to work, you can apply for leave and let Mom accompany you to Kyoto as soon as possible."
They had already agreed to give birth in Kyoto, and Gong Chengjun had already arranged for people to decorate and tidy up a villa, and they would move in when the Gong family returned. Because this house was close to the Military General Hospital, Gong Linglong would be arranged to stay here when she returned to Beijing to recuperate, give birth, and spend the rest of her life there.
"I've already told Secretary Yang in advance that my triplets are a special case. I'll be on leave after working for another month and a half."
He was leaving at dawn tomorrow and still had a lot of things to arrange, so Lu Jingchuan hurried out to do some work, while Gong Linglong helped him pack his bags at home.
Since he was not going on a mission this time, she was not worried about his safety, but she could guess that the training would be particularly cruel and the environment in the training ground would be very harsh, so she packed some extra clothes and shoes for him.
In addition, there were a lot of medicines prepared, including medicated oils for bruises and sprains, Western medicines for anti-inflammation and hemostasis, powders for repelling mosquitoes, Chinese and Western medicines for treating colds and flu, and poisons prepared by his mother. She wrote down the names of the medicines and packed them all for him.
Thinking about their training, they would not eat on time for three meals a day, and they would probably eat less and drink less in the harsh environment. Gong Linglong took out a light bottle and filled it with a lot of pickles, fermented bean curd, etc. that could be stored for a long time.
When Lu Jingchuan came back, she had helped him tidy up and packed up. After a quick shower, he carried her back to the room to sleep.
Because he had to leave early the next day, Gong Linglong, who usually slept well, woke up in the middle of the night, got up quietly, went to the kitchen to cook him a meal, and also cooked a big pot of eggs for him to eat before packing them up to eat on the road.
As soon as the sun rose, Lu Jingchuan left home with his heavy luggage and a feeling of reluctance.
In the two days after he left, Gong Linglong felt a little uncomfortable and was in a low mood, but she quickly adjusted herself and devoted herself to her work.
“Bang, bang!”
There was a knock on the office door. Gong Linglong looked up and said, "Come in."
Because of his previous contributions to disaster relief, the Gong family donated prescriptions and a large sum of money. Gong Linglong was promoted three times at work and now has his own small office, right next to Secretary Yang's office.
The door opened from the outside, revealing Gong Wantang's smiling face: "Linglong."
"Mom." Gong Linglong stood up happily, and seeing the person behind her, she smiled brightly and called out, "Grandpa!"
"Why."
Gong Kaizhou, who was wearing a down coat and looked very energetic, was very excited when he saw his beautiful granddaughter: "Linglong."
"Grandpa, I'm glad to see you at last."
Gong Linglong had seen photos at her uncle's place before. Both uncles looked like her grandfather. The three of them, father and son, all exuded the noble and elegant temperament unique to descendants of aristocratic families.
"My precious granddaughter, grandpa finally gets to see you."
Gong Kaizhou held her hand tightly, his eyes filled with experience and emotions, "Linglong, you have suffered a lot over the years, Grandpa is sorry for you."
"Grandpa, I have the best mother in the world to take care of me. I don't suffer and I live a very happy life." Gong Linglong said with a smile.
"A good boy, a filial and good boy."
Gong Kaizhou smiled and patted the back of her hand. Seeing that her belly was already bulging, his eyes were full of loving concern: "I heard that these three little guys are quite naughty. Did they bother you?"
"When you're full, you won't make trouble. When you're hungry, you'll howl and rebel." Gong Linglong told him with a smile.
"Ha ha..."
Gong Kaizhou laughed when he heard this.
"Grandpa, Mom, Uncle, aren't they back yet?" Gong Linglong only saw the two of them.
"Your uncle is back. We flew to Kyoto. He stayed there for work, so we came to Seoul first."
"Your aunt and second uncle's family haven't returned yet. They've agreed to come back for the New Year. They're busy at the company, and your second uncle is currently developing a piece of machinery. It's a critical period, so he can't leave. Your cousins are all in school, and their vacation isn't over yet. They'll return when they're done, and then they'll meet us in Kyoto."
Gong Wantang and her friends arrived in Kyoto the day before yesterday. She learned from Han Ji that her son-in-law had been drafted for training and she was alone at home, so she only stayed in Kyoto for one night and hurriedly bought a ticket to Seoul the next day.
After chatting with them briefly, Gong Linglong accompanied them to meet Secretary Yang, and after get off work, they returned to the military family compound together.
With her mother and grandfather taking care of her, Gong Linglong lived a happy life. Every day she had food and clothes provided for her. The livestock and poultry raised in the space were also taken care of by them. Apart from spending some time harvesting the ripe grains and medicinal herbs, she basically didn't have to worry about anything else.
By December, Gong Linglong had become noticeably heavier, and it was becoming a struggle for her to commute to and from get off work every day.
After working for another half a month and handing over all the work at hand to Li Xuan, she submitted an application for leave. Secretary Yang readily approved her leave, and then the three generations of their family returned to Kyoto.
