"Sister-in-law, I saw the leaders go to see Captain He. Is there something wrong?" Li Aimei asked Yun Jin about the situation. "The leaders didn't look too good."

Yun Jin was stunned for a moment, then stuffed the small rice cake into Li Aimei's hands and said, "Play with your Aunt Aimei for a while. Mom will pack some things and send them to you."

Yun Jin guessed that He Tingchuan was probably going on a mission, and was going to Tang City.

When she thought about the situation over there, Yun Jin washed all the food and drinks she could bring from home, as well as a large military kettle, filled it with warm water, and then searched for the food again.

It's too late to buy it now.

Yun Jin went to Gao's house and asked, "Does your sister-in-law still have white sugar, brown sugar, cookies, or other snacks?"

Mrs. Gao nodded: "Yes."

"Please lend it to me first, sister-in-law, and I will return it to you when I buy it."

Mrs. Gao was not stingy and took out all the food at home, including a pound of red dates: "Do you want this?"

"Yes, thank you, sister-in-law!" Yun Jin accepted it with a smile, carried the things back, and stuffed them all into He Tingchuan's army green backpack. This was his previous reward, and he would only take it with him when traveling far away.

After Yun Jin finished packing, she motioned Li Aimei to follow.

If it weren't for the lack of time, Yun Jin would have wanted to cook a pot of eggs for He Tingchuan to eat on the road, and they could eat them when they arrived.

Li Aimei noticed Yun Jin's panic and nervousness, and held Xiao Nian Gao without asking anything. When she saw her leaving, Li Aimei followed her holding Xiao Nian Gao, and looked busy and sweaty, with beads of sweat falling from her cheeks.

Less than two minutes after arriving at the compound gate, a military green jeep drove over.

He Tingchuan was in the car. He recognized that the two adults and one child at the door were his wife and daughter, and excitedly shouted, "Stop the car, boss, can I have a word with my wife?"

Commander Chen nodded.

After getting permission, He Tingchuan immediately opened the door and jumped out of the car with a swift step of his long legs. The man with a stern expression immediately turned into a gentle look as soon as he got out of the car. In his eyes, apart from his wife, there was his well-behaved and lovely daughter.

"Why are you here?" He Tingchuan was surprised.

Yun Jin smiled and shoved the heavy backpack towards him. "I'm here to see you off. Besides some food, there's also a change of clothes for you, and the cold medicine I took earlier. I packed it up for you, as well as some medicated oil and malted milk."

He Tingchuan frowned: "What are you making for me? Just keep it for yourself!"

Yun Jin squeezed his hand soothingly: "I know where you're going. Be careful. They need supplies over there. Take them!"

As she spoke, Yun Jin took the initiative to hug He Tingchuan: "Come back early, my daughter and I are waiting for you."

Seeing them hugging, Li Aimei turned her face away embarrassedly.

Little Nian Gao stretched out his hand, wanting a hug too, his little face full of longing.

Yun Jin hugged He Tingchuan and heard Xiao Nian Gao's anxious voice. Yun Jin took Xiao Nian Gao from Li Aimei's arms and said, "Hold your daughter for a while. You can't hold her for a while."

He Tingchuan looked reluctant as he hugged his lovely daughter and rubbed her forehead with his head.

Little Nian Gao didn't know she was going to say goodbye. She was in her father's arms, grinning happily, revealing a few glutinous rice teeth, and drooling at the corners of her mouth. Even so, she was still very cute and not sloppy at all.

Commander Chen and the political commissar in the car looked at the affectionate couple and turned their eyes away. They were a little surprised that He Tingchuan, a cold man, became a completely different person in front of his wife.

It is true that steel is tempered a hundred times and yet it is still as soft as silk.

It’s different after getting married.

Commander Chen asked, "Tell me, is this earthquake real?"

"The higher-ups must have believed it." The political commissar looked worried. "If this really is an earthquake, what will happen to the people in that area?"

Commander Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "Evacuate. If the outcome cannot be changed, evacuate as many as possible."

The political commissar thought about it and checked the time: "The plane is about to take off, we can't delay any longer."

Then he pressed the horn!

The sound of beeping horns urged He Tingchuan to leave. He held Xiao Nian Gao in one hand and Yun Jin in the other, whispering in her ear, "Take good care of the child when I come back."

Yun Jin nodded, holding the little rice cake, and looked reluctantly at He Tingchuan who was carrying a backpack and a large water bottle on his shoulder and striding towards the jeep. When he got in the car, he turned around and smiled at the mother and daughter.

Yun Jin's eyes became moist because of his smile.

Seeing her father taking the bus without her, Xiao Nian Gao couldn't help but pouting in grievance, and stretched out her hand to He Tingchuan: "Daddy..."

Yun Jin raised an eyebrow in disbelief, looking at the little rice cake that was called "baba" one by one.

He Tingchuan also heard it, his eyes bright: "Nian Gao, wait for dad to come back!"

"Daddy!!!" Little Nian Gao watched her father's car drive away and jumped excitedly in her mother's arms: "Daddy..."

He Tingchuan had a smile on his face and was very excited: "My daughter can call me daddy now!"

Commander Chen and the others glanced at the happy He Tingchuan and said, "I guess we'll be leaving when you come back. Do your mission well, don't embarrass our artillery, and take good care of your people."

"Yes!" He Tingchuan saluted.

When they arrived at the airport, He Tingchuan saw familiar faces, including Li Aiguo.

Li Aiguo winked at him.

He Tingchuan walked past him expressionlessly and gave the order: "Stand at attention!"

Li Aiguo restrained his expression and listened to the orders of his captain He.

......

On Yunjin's side, Xiaoniangao was crying loudly. Yunjin took a long time to comfort him. Xiaoniangao looked towards the gate of the compound, wanting to find his father.

Yun Jin washed her face and said, "Dad will be back in a few days. Little Nian Gao, please stay at home with Mom for the next few days, okay? Mom will be scared if you don't. Little Nian Gao is the best, right?"

I don’t know if Xiao Nian Gao understood, but she took the initiative to hug her mother, with her little face pressed against her, looking dependent and comforting. Both mother and daughter looked towards the gate of the compound without saying a word.

Li Aimei returned home one day and brought Yun Jin a piece of news: "It seems my eldest brother is also on a mission."

"Fortunately, I prepared a lot of things." Yun Jin was thankful.

Li Aimei regretted: "I should have boiled a few eggs earlier."

Speaking of eggs, Yun Jin also looked regretful.

After He Tingchuan and the others left, Yun Jin was uneasy and kept the radio on. She didn't hear anything about earthquake prevention on the broadcast, and she didn't know what arrangements the leaders above had made.

He Tingchuan and his team had already boarded the plane. Time was running out, so the plane flew directly over Tang City.

In addition to them, many people's children joined the people in evacuating the earthquake-stricken area. Everyone thought it was a joke. How could an earthquake happen in such a good time? Some people packed up their belongings and left in disbelief.

Some people think the talk is alarmist and are unwilling to leave their homes.

It was almost dark when He Tingchuan and his team arrived, and once it got dark, the evacuation was not so smooth.

Tang City has a population of hundreds of thousands, and it is not easy to evacuate everyone. They went door to door to persuade them, and when they saw that the soldiers had come out, those people began to take it seriously.

I can't bear to leave behind the junk at home, so I want to pack it up and take it away.

He Tingchuan didn't have time to move with them, so he ordered them to only take food, quilts, clothes, and any living things in the house. They were not to take anything else, such as broken copper, iron, or wooden tables, as they simply didn't have that much time.

I don't have that much energy.

When He Tingchuan gave the order, he carried a paralyzed old man onto the car, filled the car with people, and sent them to a safe place as soon as possible, as far away from the earthquake zone as possible.

It was unknown how many people had been evacuated. He Tingchuan was tired and hungry. He took a sip of the water in the bottle and it tasted sweet.

Looking at the water bottle that Yun Jin specially filled for him, He Tingchuan's eyes softened for a few seconds.

He took a few big gulps of salt and sugar water. It was the electrolyte water Yun Jin prepared for him. She was worried that he would be too busy to eat or drink, but he also needed to maintain his physical strength, so she made the electrolyte water herself.

He Tingchuan had almost finished drinking when he met Li Aiguo. Seeing the man on the verge of collapse, he handed him the canteen and said, "Take a few sips. Don't fall down. Keep working hard. There are still many people waiting to be evacuated."

"Yes!" Li Aiguo took a big sip of water. The salty and sweet taste was strange, but it made people feel like they had replenished their physical strength.

Li Aiguo took another sip, and after asking He Tingchuan for consent, he passed the kettle around, and each person took a sip or two until the kettle was empty. Then it returned to He Tingchuan, who hung it around his neck and carried a pregnant woman who was about to give birth to find medical staff.
