Meng Mingxuan immediately made a call to headquarters.

Only then did they realize that a sudden order from above had ordered Gu Siyuan and his group to return ahead of schedule.

Since it's the command from above, then there's no problem.

However, it's not necessarily a bad thing. With Gu Siyuan not around, he can negotiate with the Armed Forces Department to have Lao Ba handed over to the military.

Meng Mingxuan had a vague feeling that things shouldn't be like this, that something seemed wrong.

But his reason once again prevailed over his intuition, and he decided to negotiate with the armed forces department.

……

Xu Manman and Fei Huainan did not go to the county town today.

Fei Huainan received a call from Kong Jianming yesterday, informing him of a new task.

A shipment of weapons was secretly transported to the Mohe border, in quantity sufficient to disrupt peace on the border.

Besides weapons, there were also extremely dangerous biological viruses, and the transport personnel were all thugs who valued money over their lives.

If this batch of weapons and biochemical viruses were to reach the Mohe border, riots would be inevitable.

Riots are a minor issue, but if they provoke a war between China and the Federation, causing conflict between the two countries, then things will get complicated.

China has just quelled an internal rebellion, and the people are still starving. If war breaks out again, the people will suffer once more.

Currently, all they know is that the other party is using a route to transport weapons and biological viruses, which will pass through Guangping County, traverse the mountains, and secretly head to Mohe.

The exact arrival times in Guangping County and Mohe are uncertain.

Kong Jianming was deliberately held back, unable to deal with the matter.

Furthermore, since there were spies planted by the other side within the military, Kong Jianming could not openly help Fei Huainan.

Otherwise, if these bandits are pushed too far, they might release biological viruses into densely populated cities, causing an outbreak of plague throughout the city.

Currently, the only person who can stop all of this is Fei Huainan. This task is too difficult, and Kong Jianming paused several times while speaking.

Fei Huainan remained silent for a long time.

This matter is of great importance; if war breaks out, it will be the ordinary people who suffer.

If he wanted to stop it by himself, he could only destroy those weapons. However, there was an easier way: to use space to store those weapons and the virus.

However, the matter of the space cannot be easily exposed. Fei Huainan accepted the mission, but whether Xu Manman should take the risk with him and use the space is up to her to decide.

Fei Huainan hung up the phone and explained the pros and cons to Xu Manman.

This mission was fraught with danger, and he wasn't entirely confident.

If something happens to him, Xu Manman, who is powerless to even kill a chicken, may also get into trouble.

Xu Manman was silent for a moment, then agreed.

As a Chinese, if she lacked the ability, so be it; but if she did, she couldn't stand by and watch those people use biochemical viruses to harm her compatriots.

This is a noble principle ingrained in the Chinese people.

When Fei Huainan accepted the mission, Kong Jianming didn't really want him to stop hundreds of bandits by himself. He transferred the armed forces department to Fei Huainan's use.

Kong Jianming immediately called Zhao Guoan to give him instructions.

It was through this phone call that Zhao Guoan learned that Fei Huainan had been reinstated and still had a mission to complete.

Zhao Guoan felt sorry for a long time, but he didn't dare to poach his old boss's employees and could only obey his superiors' arrangements.

Knowing that Fei Huainan had other tasks, they decided to let him work only three days a week.

The rest of the time is Fei Huainan's free time.

As for the Armed Forces Department, the minister will personally go and speak to them; the reasons are readily available anyway: Fei Huainan's old wounds haven't healed...

So, Fei Huainan, whose old injury had not yet healed, stayed in bed a little longer in the morning, looking at his wife's sleeping face, which was quite rare.

I even washed all the clothes early this morning.

When Xu Manman woke up, Fei Huainan had already prepared the meal.

Fei Huainan was washing clothes.

Liu Minhua was still in the center of the village, waiting for the armed forces department's car to arrive.

She waited and waited.

My eyelashes were covered in a layer of snowflakes, and my legs were numb, but I still couldn't see the car.

She couldn't resist and walked to Fei Huainan's door, where she saw Fei Huainan sitting in the yard washing clothes.

Liu Minhua's eyes widened immediately. How could a man wash clothes?

Xu Manman, that lazy woman, actually makes Fei Huainan wash her clothes. How could she do that?

Liu Minhua was taught from a young age that girls must do housework.

Her family has always been like this since she was little. Every time her father came home, he would leave the clothes aside and never care about them. Her father and mother did the same work.

When her mother came back, she still had to do laundry, cook, and take care of the chickens and ducks.

Her mother also said so.

Women should be the heads of the household; that's what women are meant to do.

Uncle and aunt, aunt and uncle.

They are all like that.

Liu Minhua bit her lip, staring at the scene before her in disbelief. As she looked, her eyes widened even more.

It's one thing for Fei Huainan to be washing clothes, but the clothes he's holding are clearly Xu Manman's?

How can a man do a woman's laundry?!

Liu Minhua wanted to speak up to stop her, but the image of Xu Manman's shrewishness flashed through her mind, and she shuddered.

No, I can't let Xu Manman see this.

Even if you're going to say it, you should wait until Xu Manman can't see it.

Just as she was about to speak, Liu Minhua suddenly covered her mouth.

She stood at the door for a while and watched Fei Huainan wash his clothes and then go to the kitchen to cook, his figure going in and out.

For the first time, Liu Minhua felt regret. If she hadn't broken off the engagement, she would have been the one to marry Fei Huainan.

She is now the one being pampered and protected by men.

Liu Minhua returned home in a daze, the image of Fei Huainan helping Xu Manman wash clothes lingering in her mind.

Fei Huainan waited until Liu Minhua left before raising his eyes to glance around. As a soldier, his hearing and perception were exceptionally sharp.

He noticed Liu Minhua standing at the gate, but seeing that the other party didn't do anything, he pretended not to know.

After everyone left, he carried the prepared food into the house.

Xu Manman got up, folded the quilt, and was now sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) writing a novel.

Seeing Fei Huainan bring in the food, she deftly put the food into her spatial storage and was about to go help.

Fei Huainan stopped him immediately: "Don't move, just wait."

It's quite cold outside. My wife is so delicate; what if she catches a cold?

Seeing this, Xu Manman didn't insist. Instead, she silently took out two tea eggs and some chopped pickled cabbage from her spatial storage and served them as extra dishes.

Fei Huainan thought his wife was delicate and couldn't stand the cold wind, but he found it annoying that Liu Minhua was standing at his door early in the morning.

If the Cai family were to marry him, those clueless people wouldn't be hanging around in front of him anymore.

Xu Manman had no idea what Fei Huainan was thinking as she looked at the steamed buns and millet porridge placed on the table.

She felt that Fei Huainan was a really good marriage prospect; he was hardworking, clean, and made her feel safe.

With a man like this, you don't have to be afraid of encountering wolves when walking at night.

After all, this is the man who killed a wild boar with a single punch.

In the dream, a man in camouflage was training in the wild when a wild boar came grunting and trying to attack him.

The man initially ignored the wild boar.

But the wild boar was oblivious and insisted on goring people in the stomach.

The man threw a punch, and the wild boar died instantly.

Finally, after everyone completed the training, they were rewarded with a meal of roasted wild boar meat.

Xu Manman still finds it quite speechless when she thinks about it now; that wild boar was truly stupid.

They've already let it off the hook, and it's still eagerly offering them a pig's head. There's nothing to say about that.
