Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction
Chapter 143 New Year's Flavor
"I didn't know we'd be there for a whole day, otherwise I would have definitely taken her out of the space and brought her along. There are still people guarding the back mountain, and we don't know what the situation is like there, or whether it will pose a danger to the villagers." This was her main concern. That place was really too close to them, and if anything happened, their family and her uncle would be the first to be affected.
"It's alright. Since there are people guarding you, they will ensure your safety. And since something happened here, we are relatively safe there for the short term. So it's fairly safe, but I still suggest you go back to your space to sleep tonight." Because of this, Xia Jixuan once again had the idea of retiring from the military and changing careers.
Although he was only in his thirties, he had already served in the military for seventeen or eighteen years. He just felt that his health was still good and wanted to serve his country for a longer period of time.
Every time his family was in danger, he felt the urge to return and protect them. After calming down, he would try various ways to balance things out.
Having been married to him for over ten years, Liu Fangmei knew exactly what her husband was thinking. She patted him reassuringly, "Don't think so much. You're still studying, and you'll still be serving your country in the future. We're doing fine here. Besides, we're all quite capable, so don't worry, nothing will happen. Once that dark period is over, we'll follow you wherever you go..."
The two younger brothers overheard their parents' conversation and gathered around. Shi Tou reached out and hugged his mother: "Dad, don't worry, our military boxing is pretty good. We're strong too. As long as they don't pull out their guns, one of us can easily take on two or three sweaty men."
Little Fish nodded in agreement: "Yes, Dad. We're all doing well. In a few years, if there's really no more schooling, we'd like to go and work hard to make a living. We don't want to leave again before you come back, so our family can't be together again."
Hearing his two sons say this, Xia Jixuan calmed down and patted the two little devils on the shoulders: "Alright, then when I'm not home, your mother and sister will be in your care. Don't think that just because you can't go to university, you can relax. There are all kinds of books here. If you want to learn a skill, look around here for books and read them in your spare time to build a foundation."
No matter the era, having a skill means you won't starve. So he not only wanted his two sons to study hard, but also hoped they could learn some skills to build a foundation.
The two little rascals, who will be 12 years old in a little over a month, look much taller than other children of the same age in the village. And because they get enough nutrition, they are tall and strong, and you can't tell that they are 11-year-old kids at all.
Looking at her two sons, and then at herself, she once again buried the thought of leaving the army deep in her heart.
"How about it? Will you be able to come home for the Spring Festival holiday?" Liu Fangmei asked him, thinking that the Spring Festival was approaching.
"The holiday isn't that long; it's just a few days of travel by train. But during this holiday, we can go to our garrison and celebrate the New Year with our comrades." He didn't want to be a loner, since his home was really far away, and even with just 10 days of holiday, it would take him 6 and a half days to travel back and forth. If there was a snowstorm or train delays, it could take another 7 or 8 days.
Also, they live in the capital city, and train tickets are hard to buy during holidays due to the crowds. It's so hard for him to go home; I really hope his two years of study will pass quickly.
"Mom, how about we go to the capital again during the New Year and go with Dad?" Shi Tou suggested. He thought it would be worthwhile to go to the capital again; he found it quite fun.
“No, we can only visit relatives once a year. The situation outside is not good right now, so let’s not go out. Anyway, your father can come back to the space, so we can spend the New Year here. We can ask your father to come and have New Year’s Eve dinner with us, just like last year.” She really felt it was not good to go to the capital every few months like this.
"Uh, okay then. I just want to eat that steak from Old Mo's Restaurant. It's a bit pricey, but it's really delicious." Stone was already thinking of looking at the bookshelf to see if there were any recipes for Old Mo's Restaurant's dishes.
"That's easy, we'll find some recipe pictures and make it for you. We can go again next year during your summer vacation, or even during the Mid-Autumn Festival. We can plan our time well, and we can also go out and have some fun while visiting relatives." These two little rascals can't stay still at all. After going out for a while, they want to go out and play whenever they have the chance.
"That's a good idea, but I might only be able to spend two days a week with you then, since we don't have summer vacations here." Xia Jixuan nodded, looking at his two sons who had suddenly become excited, and thought his wife's suggestion was good.
That's how it has to be. He doesn't earn money so his wife can suffer. Although he still can't show off his family's wealth to others, he feels that, given his means, making sure his wife eats well, drinks well, and wears nice clothes is the most basic thing.
"Alright, alright, honey, go eat first, and then go check on our daughter. She's still sleeping, and she's been so worried about you three not being back." Xia Jixuan looked around, saw that it was almost time, hugged his wife, and prepared to leave.
"I'm leaving. You two take good care of your mother and sister. Don't give up military boxing..."
Watching him leave the mother and her two children, she quickly ate the food on the table, then went back to wash up before going to see the little girl together.
Looking at his younger sister's dark circles, Shi Tou reached out and touched the little girl's thinner face with heartache.
"Mom, let's take our little sister with us when we go out from now on." Counting the days, they haven't been home for at least five days. They must be worried something might have happened to them outside. The outer door is locked, so their little sister can't get out at all…
"This was also an accident. I didn't know I would have to stay at the police station for so long. What I didn't expect was that someone would be missing here, which caused things to get a bit out of control." Liu Fangmei also felt quite sorry for her daughter. Those people's senses were too sharp, and in order not to let them discover any problems, she didn't dare to use her consciousness to check the space.
She was afraid that discovering something would bring utter disaster upon herself and her family. That's why she had been holding back. She was also worried about her daughter, but she had momentarily forgotten that time inside was different from time outside.
