A Willys Jeep was driving very fast on a gravel road. Behind it were several large trucks full of soldiers chasing after it. Behind them, a long line of dust and smoke was raised.
.
The Liantai Militia Headquarters is more than 80 kilometers away from the county seat. After more than an hour's trek, Gao Hongming finally rushed back to the Gao family's old house before dawn. When he jumped out of the car, his original iron-gray military uniform was stained by dust.
Earthy gray.
There was no way around it. Willis jeeps usually don't have doors. Whoever rides on the dusty road knows how it feels. So when he wanted to enter the delivery room, Qin Xiulian immediately rushed him to wash it.
Had a bath.
After more than half an hour, Gao Hongming finally got clean and hugged his sleeping son in his arms.
While holding his son, he looked at Xie Wenqian who was lying on the bed with a weak face. Gao Hongming, who was so happy that he didn't know what to say, handed the baby to Ziying beside him, stretched out his hands and held Xie Wenqian's slightly cold hand tightly.
little hands.
"Sister Wen Qian has made great contributions to the Gao family this time."
Qin Xiulian held Xie Wenqian's other hand and said to Gao Hongming with a smile: "But I heard that when you went to the Gao family to propose marriage, you promised the old man of the Gao family that you would adopt a son to the Xie family in the future.
, so you still have to continue to work hard."
After listening to Qin Xiulian's words, a blush appeared on Xie Wenqian's originally pale face, and she said coquettishly: "Sister Xiulian, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm going to die after giving birth to a child, and I don't want to suffer like this again.
, if you want to give birth, give birth to yourself.”
Although Xie Wenqian's words hinted at the suspicion that Qin Xiulian's first child was a girl, Qin Xiulian was not angry. Instead, she smiled and said: "It's impossible to say for sure. If our master goes crazy, I won't guarantee that you will still be pregnant at the end of this year."
superior."
As soon as these words came out, Xie Wenqian, who had not yet escaped from the pain of childbirth, immediately shuddered and shook her head like a rattle.
I don’t plan to have children anymore.”
The two girls were chatting and laughing back and forth, but Ziying on the side had an envious look in her eyes, and her little mouth pouted unknowingly.
Both the eldest mistress and the second mistress have given birth to babies for the young master, but his belly is still as flat as before, but the young master also works hard on himself on weekdays. It seems that he will have to find a doctor to get some medicine in a while.
.
Gao Hongming sat on the edge of the bed and chatted with his wives. Looking at the beautiful faces of his wives, the sounds of Yingying and Yanyan came to his ears. He felt happy and peaceful in his heart, and unconsciously fell asleep on the bedside.
It’s on.
Looking at their husband who was sitting by the bed and fell asleep within a few minutes, the three women were amused and then felt heartbroken.
Qin Xiulian called Dabao, "Dabao, tell me honestly, how long has it been since the young master had a good rest?"
At first, Dabao was giggling and still thinking about how to lie, but Qin Xiulian was such a shrewd person, her almond-shaped eyes widened: "Okay, you also want to lie to me?
You don’t want to say yes, that’s fine… From tomorrow on, you don’t have to serve the young master anymore, you can just go back to the Gao family’s old house and take over the guard team.”
"No, young lady!"
Dabao was shocked, "Young Master can't live without someone to take care of him."
"Do you think you won't have anyone to take care of you after the young master leaves?"
After Qin Xiulian got married, she was able to take care of the Gao family in an orderly manner. Needless to say, she was very skillful. She sneered when she heard this and said, "Don't think that I can't do anything to you with the support of the young master. Do you believe it or not?"
Just make the decision for you and Aunt Liu’s niece to come and get married?”
In the past two years, Dabao, who has followed Gao Hongming through life and death on the battlefield and has been injured several times without frowning, suddenly lost his expression, "Young lady, please don't... I said it's not okay?"
"Okay, tell me honestly, has the young master never had a good rest these days?" Qin Xiulian asked Dabao while looking at her husband who had obviously lost a lot of weight. She felt angry and distressed at the same time, and her pretty face became more and more frosty.
.
"Yes...especially in the past two or three days, the young master has been staying at the headquarters. If he couldn't bear it anymore, he would lie down on the camp bed with his clothes on for a while. He would get up again to command the battle within a few hours of sleep," Dabao said.
He lowered his head, with a look of shame on his face.
"you you……"
Qin Xiulian was so angry that her eyebrows stood upside down, and the slender jade finger pointing at Dabao was trembling with anger.
"Hey, my dear, what did I tell you? I asked you to take good care of the young master and let him eat and rest on time. What did you do?
Okay...since you can't take good care of the young master, then I'll replace him with someone who can do it!"
Dabao was like an eggplant beaten by frost. He did not dare to tell Qin Xiulian and the three girls that Gao Hongming had been directing battles almost day and night these days, relying solely on cigarettes and coffee to stay awake. Otherwise, Qin Xiulian would not know how angry she would be.
"Young lady... Director Shi Feng is outside asking to see the young master, saying he has something to report!" At this moment, a maid hurriedly came to report.
Qin Xiulian, who was already angry, shouted without hesitation: "What kind of retribution are you asking for? Didn't you see that the young master hasn't slept for several days? Even if it's a big deal, let's wait until the young master wakes up."
Strange to say, Gao Hongming, who had been sleeping like a dead pig, suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the word report, and asked in a daze: "What report, Dabao... Dabao... hurry up and get someone
Come in."
Seeing that Gao Hongming didn't forget to listen to the report even though he was so sleepy, Qin Xiulian couldn't help but shed tears. She hit Gao Hongming on the shoulder hard and choked out:
"You don't want your life. Look, you haven't slept for a long time, and you still haven't forgotten to listen to the report. If you have any trouble, how are you going to let us sisters live?"
Looking at Qin Xiulian who was crying, Xie Wenqian who looked haggard just after giving birth, and Ziying who looked at her with concern, what could Gao Hongming say?
I could only helplessly hug the two daughters-in-law and try to comfort them in this way.
But seeing that the effect didn't seem obvious, he could only tentatively say: "Daughter-in-law, do you think this is okay? I'm going to see Shi Feng now. I won't go back to the headquarters tonight. I'll stay with you. You
Is this okay?"
Even though Qin Xiulian was furious, she was so angry that she burst into tears and laughed at Gao Hongming's words.
"Hey, Gao Hongming, do you really think of yourself as the emperor? If my father-in-law hadn't told me to take good care of you when I first got married, you would have thought that I just take care of you and don't worry about anything.
You?"
"Okay, I know, my wife is the best. That's good. I'll go see Shi Feng first, and then come back to have breakfast with you. I'm not going anywhere today, I'll just stay with you at home."
