Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction

Chapter 195 Overseas Chinese Mall

Xia Yutang felt that the training here was more intense than the ones her father had arranged for her, so she abandoned the training ground her father had set up in the space and went to the special forces training area every day after arriving here.

Of course, even if Xia Jixuan is the leader, he can't just do whatever he wants. So, the little girl came here to train with him because he submitted a report online and got approval. That's why he agreed to let the little girl come here every day.

On the fourth day after they arrived, Xia Jixuan asked them to prepare to entertain the guests. Their room was quite spacious and could accommodate three tables. Her father said that he had invited the division commander, the political commissar, several of his close comrades-in-arms, and several captains from their special forces.

The main reason is because of the special forces. Although the team is not large, it is not small either. The three tables set up at his house are really not enough to accommodate everyone.

So Commander Xia delivered the five sacks of dumplings his wife had made directly to the canteen at the garrison, saying it was an extra meal for everyone.

There were just too many people. Even if they took five, each person could only get three or four dumplings at most.

But since they were all meat dumplings, no one could complain. After eating the dumplings, however, many more people wanted to get to know the group leader's precious daughter.

Even after she started training here, people would pass by the special forces training area every day to see the little girl who was training with them.

Xia Yutang originally called the village children "father" and "mother," but after arriving here, he called them "father" for a few days and then just kept calling them "father."

Because many people participated in the training, she could clearly feel her own progress, which made her feel that she would improve faster when comparing herself with other artists.

What Xia Yutang didn't mention was one of the reasons she went to the training: the old ladies in the family compound talked too loudly and kept staring at her. She didn't want to sit there and be treated like a monkey, so she had to run outside.

Since they arrived, people from the family compound have been coming every day, one after another, without a break all day long.

The two older brothers had to participate in training every day, so the mother and daughter were left to suffer at the hands of the older women in the family compound.

Days passed, and the snow fell heavier and heavier. They were woken up every day by the reveille at their base.

Not long after the reveille, the sound of uncles shoveling snow could be heard. The snow has been quite heavy lately, with one or two heavy snowfalls lasting more than an hour every day.

The next round of snow removal will cover all the roads they cleared before, and the rooftops of the bungalows will need to be cleared of snow to prevent the snow from accumulating and collapsing under the weight of the roofs.

Their father sweeps the roof every day before going to work, and their two older brothers occasionally tidy up the yard. Usually, it's just the mother and daughter who deal with the snow in the yard and on the trees.

This year, whether it was because it was too cold or because they weren't allocated any spots, no performing arts troupe came to perform here. The local residents organized their own group to sing revolutionary songs, recite poems, and perform skits and crosstalk, which everyone enjoyed.

Although the dance moves weren't professionally graceful, the amateurish, lighthearted humor made it the first time Xia Yutang had seen such a unique and funny performance. And the performers were her uncles, whom she had known since she arrived.

After the performance, everyone was given a holiday. Of course, the Spring Festival holiday doesn't mean the entire military camp is on holiday; there are still people on duty.

Every department has people on duty during the Spring Festival. This year, his two older brothers are on duty during the Spring Festival. So there are still four or five days until the Spring Festival. Xia Jixuan is off today and plans to take his mother and children to the city to go shopping at the department store.

He had gone to the logistics department a long time ago and bought a whole bag of tickets so that he could take his family to explore the city during the holiday.

Before leaving, the old commander's bodyguard slipped him a small cloth bag, saying it was a gift from the old commander to the young girl. Before Xia Jixuan could say anything, he had already run far away.

"Dad, what's that?" Yu Tang asked curiously. What was inside the cloth bag? The bag looked handmade, and it even had two little daisies embroidered on it.

"It was given to me by the old commander. It feels like a receipt. I'll drive you around, you can see for yourself. The old commander said it's a gift for you..." Xia Jixuan was speechless. His daughter had been here for almost half a month. Why was she giving him a gift now? She had received gifts before. What was she doing? Who would give a gift twice as a greeting?

“If Grandpa Chen gave it to me, then this cloth bag must have been embroidered by Grandma Chen. Let me see what’s inside…” She’s been getting quite familiar with this old man lately, and he’s been trying every day to persuade her to join the army.

Xia Yutang didn't want to come. There were only five people in her family, three of whom were already in the military. Besides, she was used to being lazy and wasn't suited to the strict lifestyle of the military.

The old commander knew that the girl's repeated refusals were simply because she was too lazy to move. He didn't force her, only telling her to come find him whenever she wanted to.

Xia Yutang felt that the fact that he was able to come into contact with these people and live in the family compound where they were stationed was probably thanks to his father and two older brothers.

"Dad, what is this? Why does it look different from the tickets we need?" He thought it was one of those tickets, but when he opened it, he found three prize tickets inside.

The voucher is worth 200 yuan, which means that these three vouchers contain 600 yuan of spending funds.

"This is a voucher from the Overseas Chinese Shopping Mall. Haven't you seen it before? Why are you making such a fuss?" The old leader knew that he was going to the city with his wife and son, so he specially gave him a 600 yuan voucher.

"It's been so long I forgot, but these coupons look so good! Dad, is it really true that you can't get in without this coupon? What if someone is inside and loses their coupon?"

"Of course, you have to show the vouchers at the entrance of the Overseas Chinese Mall. After checking the vouchers and the items they brought in, and finding no problems, they asked where the Overseas Chinese Mall was." You should know that these vouchers have an expiration date, which means that very few people have these vouchers.

Her dad hadn't seen this product when he went to the logistics department to grab some deals. Today, he somehow managed to pull out three 200-yuan vouchers – that's 600 yuan in total! They're not that extravagant; it's just a short trip to the department store. And they're even worried his three 200-yuan vouchers won't be enough!

Before entering the city, Xia Yutang kept wondering in her mind whether the Overseas Chinese Shopping Mall could compare in terms of its grandeur to that in Haicheng, since Haicheng was truly extravagant and incredibly expensive.
