After leaving Ping'an Village, Lin Qingxi and the others went straight back to the army's home. It was exactly three in three o'clock. After Zhou Mingbai returned the car, the two of them came to rest for a while. The main reason was that Zhou Mingbai drank at noon, which was a little bit overwhelming.

After Lin Qingxi waited for Zhou Mingdi to fall asleep, she went to pack up the things she bought in the morning, took two fish and four pieces of tofu for Xiang Yijing, and asked her to send them to Xiang Teacher Xiang's house for dinner, and also took two pieces of wine and cigarettes, just as she bought them for Xiang Yijing and Xiang Yikang.

"Yijing, remember, these dishes were prepared by me, and the cigarettes and wine were prepared by you and Yikang, and you were filial to uncles." Lin Qingxi put the things in a basket and asked Xiang Yijing to carry the basket.

"I know, aunt," Xiang Yijing was no longer the little girl she used to be. She knew that her aunt was doing this to make favors for her, and she was very moved.

After Xiang Yijing took the basket to Teacher Xiang's house, it took another half an hour before Lin Qingxi woke Zhou Mingming and took the four elders and five Dabao to Teacher Xiang's house.

It happened to be around five o'clock when Xiang Yijing and Xiang Jing helped Xiang's sister-in-law in the kitchen. Lin Qingxi and the others sat in the living room to drink water and eat without seeing each other.

Soon, Commander Xiang and the guards came back from get off work. Seeing Lin Qingxi and his family sitting in the living room, he greeted him and asked the guards to go to the kitchen to help him, and changed Xiang Yijing and Xiang Jing out.

"Doctor Lin, how about it? How many days will you stay here this time?" Commander Xiang sat in the living room and pulled Lin Qingxi to start chatting.

"I've been there for about two or three days. There's a lot of things happening in the health center at home. I've been away for so long, so it's time to go back. And Yijing and the others have to go back to review, so as not to get out of the wild place," Lin Qingxi said with a smile.

"Yes, they will have to take the college entrance examination at the end of the year! Yes, go back early to review. When Yijing and Pang Bo get married, her aunt and I will go there a week in advance. I will ask you to entertain you at that time." Commander Xiang was used to staying in the army and spoke straightforwardly.

"Don't worry, there is nothing at home, there are many rooms, most of the food is planted in the fields and picked from the mountains. I will take you to the mountains for a walk," Lin Qingxi smiled. She would definitely treat her to the house as a guest.

"Yes, yes, except for the hardest years, I haven't hunted on the mountain for a long time," said the commander, laughing, and it could be seen that he was in a good mood.

"Teacher, I agree with what I said about going to the military academy for further study last time." Zhou Mingbai looked at Xibao, who was laughing so brightly, and his thoughts were about to come out.

"Okay, since you agree, then you go and hand over the work with your deputy commander. The school starts in early September, and you will go over to report at the end of August," Xiang Teacher thought for a while, looked at Lin Qingxi and smiled, "Your Xiao Zhou wants to go to the Imperial Capital family with you to reunite."

"Isn't this supposed to be? I understand that my brother is in the army and I am in the village. You don't think about how much time we can be together in a year? It's very troublesome to come to visit relatives in the army. Not to mention taking a car for so long, just say that the young and small families are not settled, and I don't feel at ease to come out for so long," Lin Qingxi said helplessly. This is the helplessness of being a military wife.

"What you said is right. Military wives are always the greatest," said Xiang's division commander affirmatively. The soldiers are responsible for defending the country, while the soldiers are responsible for defending the soldiers' homes.

"Teacher, I have finished my work and want to take leave to go home to visit my relatives. Then I will leave from home to the imperial capital," Zhou Mingbai continued, and he always felt guilty about his parents and family.

"This is a small matter, I agree," said Xiang Teacher Xiang. He knew better than anyone else about the helplessness between Zhou Ming and Lin Qingxi. Both of them have special professions and have been together for pitifully less time. He is not that kind of mean person.

"Okay, then I'll go to the deputy commander to hand over the work tomorrow," Zhou Mingbai nodded, without saying a word, and sat next to him watching Lin Qingxi chat with Commander Xiang.

Lin Qingxi talked to the commander about the progress of preparing the dowry for Xiang Yijing. At the beginning, she said that Xiang and his team prepared thirty-six legs, so he recently found an acquaintance to buy good wood for furniture.

After chatting for a while, Xiang's sister-in-law was calling for dinner. Teacher Xiang had a rare good mood and specially brought out the wine to Zhou Mingbai for a drink. Lin Qingxi ignored him, so Zhou Mingbai started drinking with Teacher Xiang. The others were eating vegetables.

After breakfast, Xiang Yijing helped Xiang's sister-in-law clean up the dishes. Xiang Yikang sat next to him and chatted with the two elders of Master Xiang and Zhou Mingbai. Lin Qingxi and Xiang's sister-in-law said, asking Xiang Yikang to send the drunk Zhou Mingbai back, and she took the four elders, Dabao and Zhou Mingren home first.

When they got home, Lin Qingxi asked Zhou Mingren to boil water. They sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air. On summer nights, there were stars, moon, breeze, cicadas, and mosquitoes.

After the water was boiling, Lin Qingxi, Zhou Jinshi and Grandma Zhou took the five baths, and then the four old men took turns to take the bath. After they finished the bath, Lin Qingxi and Zhou Mingren took the baths in turn.

After taking a shower, the four elders took Dabao and five rests. Zhou Mingren and Lin Qingxi said, and went to rest. Lin Qingxi sat in the yard waiting for Zhou Mingxi and Xiang Yijing and the others to come back. As for Xiang Yikang, he wanted to go back to the dormitory to sleep.

The next day, Lin Qingxi and Zhou Mingqing took Dabao and five of them to the city to buy things. This time, Lin Qingxi bought more things. He bought Xie Siyuan a set of military-green work clothes and small leather shoes, Xie Ermao's daughter a skirt and small leather shoes, some headbands, paper and pens, and some candies and biscuits.

After buying the goods, Lin Qingxi and the others went to Ping'an Village and delivered the things they bought to Village Chief Xie's house. After a while, they returned to the army.

In the afternoon, Zhou Mingbai went to the office to hand over the work with the deputy group leader, then took the leave note and went to the commander Xiang to approve it.

After doing my own business, it was already past afternoon. When I got home, it was getting darker. Grandma Zhou and Zhou Jin made the dinner and everyone had already eaten. Seeing that Zhou Mingdi was back, I hurriedly called him to come over for dinner.

After dinner, Xiang Yijing took the job of cleaning up the dishes and the others sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air. Zhou Mingbai and Zhou Mingren were responsible for lifting and boiling water. This was a physical job, and only the two of them were competent at home.
