Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 218 I want it too

To everyone's surprise, when Leader Li heard this, he was not only not angry, but also somewhat pleased. "The biggest anomaly is the lack of any movement. Alright, we've hired professionals, and we'll leave the search to them from now on."

Bai Jing and Team Leader Lin followed Leader Li closer to the old courtyard.

When she stepped into the old courtyard, she realized what the professional staff that Leader Li had mentioned meant.

The soldiers were seen carrying machines that probed the ground, some of which resembled metal detectors seen on television. It was only the early 1970s, and the country already had such powerful tools.
Is it because she didn't study history well, or has the country developed into a way she doesn't recognize?
Bai Jing naturally couldn't understand these things. A country can't possibly reveal all its methods to the public. After all, some things can be considered the country's foundation, used to defend against enemies.

It would be too presumptuous of us to let the enemy know that we are on guard.

This time they really dug three feet into the ground.

Around 3 a.m., we finally made a discovery.

They discovered a ventilation opening, which was thanks to their meticulousness; otherwise, who would have thought that the pipes next to the latrine were actually underground ventilation pipes more than ten meters deep?

Bai Jing was also confused, because she had seen these pipes before, but she hadn't paid them any attention, assuming they were just some underground pipes installed in the courtyard.

Her advanced understanding caused her to stumble here.

"Xiao Jin, why didn't you remind me?" Bai Jing was somewhat discouraged. If she hadn't been so presumptuous, wouldn't she have discovered their existence much earlier?

[Host, I'm the system. You didn't ask me, so how could I know? All the information requires you to pay for it. I can't just use your money without permission.] Little Jin is innocent too, okay?

It's not the kind of organization that just takes other people's things without permission.

Bai Jing has turned off her microphone.

This discovery uncovered a poison gas bomb, and those people below were its guards, waiting for the ghosts to send a message before detonating it. It has to be said, these ghosts are truly ruthless.

They don't care about any of the innocent people.

After Bai Jing found out, she had the idea of ​​planting a bomb under the cherry blossom tree, and the more she thought about it, the more excited she became.

After finishing their own tasks, Bai Jing and the others once again explored their own area. This kind of boring and arduous work went on for several months.

If the area investigation fails the first time, we'll try again, and again.

The matter was not resolved until all the evil spirits that had harmed the people were found.

Bai Jing became famous again because of her keen insight.

There's nothing we can do about it; gold shines wherever it is.

Therefore, her team also received praise from the leaders above.

Bai Jing's rank rose higher and higher with her constant cheating and destruction of monsters, reaching a level that most people could never achieve in their entire lives at her current age.

She achieved excellent results in the chaos in City B, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

She also completed the tasks assigned to her by her superiors and began to return to her original unit with Team Leader Lin and others.

Her talent naturally attracted the attention of many, but unfortunately, Bai Jing didn't have the ambition to climb the social ladder. Her current achievements were already enough to match her man's, and that was enough. After the reforms, she would focus on making money, since her golden touch was inseparable from money.

On the train back, Bai Jing was thinking about Jiang Chen. Half a year had passed, and she wondered how he was doing over there.

In her longing, the train rattled and clattered, pulling her back to City A.

After the four of them returned, they went to report to their bureau chief.

Zhou Zhenghao couldn't hide his joy as he watched the four return safely.

"I heard that you've done another good deed, Comrade Bai Jing. Haha, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You haven't let our City A down." Countless documents from above have been issued praising Bai Jing, and even the bureau chief is benefiting from it.

"The director is too kind; it's all thanks to everyone's hard work." She dared not take credit for it all by herself, and besides, it really wasn't her achievement alone.

Without Captain Lin's trust, her mission would not have been taken seriously; without the support of Leader Li and others, how could she have successfully completed her subsequent missions?

So it's all thanks to everyone.

Everyone deserves credit for this achievement.

"Haha, not bad, not bad. Although you are young, you are not arrogant or impatient. Very good." Zhou Zhenghao was extremely satisfied with Bai Jing at this moment.

This was arguably the time he received the most praise since becoming the bureau chief.

Zhou Yang and the others weren't jealous; their faces were full of pride, after all, they really benefited from Bai Jing's fame.

The four men left in plain clothes, only to return in glory.

Everyone was excited and happy.

The happiest person was Captain Lin, because his rank was promoted. You have to understand that for soldiers like them, promotions are earned through real battles and hard-fought victories.

No one else is like him, getting promoted to the rank of general as if it were a freebie.

He really had to thank Bai Jing; she was truly his lucky star.

"Alright, I won't waste any more time talking to you. I know you're all tired from the journey back, so I'll give you all five days off to rest well before coming back to work."

"Yes, thank you, Director." The four men saluted in unison.

Zhou Zhenghao stood up and returned the greeting to the four of them, saying, "When you go back, remember to collect your wages from the logistics department, and don't forget to collect your benefits as well. We've specially approved some things for you this time, and the department's rewards will be distributed after we hold a celebration party for you."

Upon hearing that there would be a reward, the four of them were taken aback. It's no wonder they were so surprised; these days, everyone has a hard time, so they were naturally happy to receive more rewards.

"Yes, thank you, Director."

After leaving the bureau chief's office, the four of them returned to their respective teams, chatted with their teammates, and then dragged their tired bodies home.

When Bai Jing returned home, the gate to her house was open. Her eyes lit up, and she happily pushed the gate open.

She thought she would see the man she longed for, but alas, it was all wishful thinking.

"Xiao Jing." Xiao Xue, who was airing out her quilts in the yard, looked up when she saw someone come in. To her surprise, she saw someone unexpected. "You're back."

Xiao Xue happily went up to her, "You've been gone for more than half a year, I missed you so much." She hugged her when she got to her, "You didn't even write a letter back, I was so worried about you, and I didn't have your phone number."

As she spoke, Xiao Xue's voice choked up. How could she not worry after not being able to contact him for more than half a year?

Although Bai Jing felt a little disappointed that it wasn't the person she was thinking about, she was still very happy that someone was remembering her.

"Sister Xiao, I didn't expect to see you at home when I came back. I'm so happy." Bai Jing was indeed disappointed, but she was also genuinely happy.

"I thought I'd take the blankets out of your room to air them out since it's autumn and airing them out will make them warmer."

Yes, she came back in the middle of autumn.

They left wearing cotton-padded clothes, but when they came back they only needed to wear single-layer clothes.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Xiao." The two let go, and the child beside them was already calling out "Mommy, Mommy!" "Wow, the little guy's head is growing quite well, he's so tall already."

Bai Jing stepped forward and picked up the little one, "Do you still recognize Auntie, Duo Duo?"

Duo Duo's little brain doesn't have much memory, how could he remember it all? He pouted and looked at his mother, his eyes screaming, "Mom, save me!"

Xiao Xue laughed, seemingly not having seen her son's pitiful little expression before. It was truly amusing. "Don't be afraid, Duoduo. This is your auntie. Auntie loves you so much. Let Auntie give you a hug."

With her mother's comforting words, the little one finally stopped crying and called out "Auntie" in a sweet voice, which almost melted Bai Jingxin's heart.

"Duoduo is so good, Auntie gives you a kiss."

The little baby is at his cutest at this time. "Come on, Auntie brought you a present. Let's go inside and open it."

The three of them entered the house together, and Xiao Xue also brought in the package that Bai Jing had placed on the ground.

As soon as it was put down, Bai Jing went over and started to pry it open.

She brought gifts for everyone when she came back this time, especially for Xiao Xue and Song Dongling.

Today's event warmed her heart and made her feel that her efforts had not been in vain, since everyone wants to be rewarded for their efforts.

"Here, this is for you. It's the latest stock from a foreign trade store in City B." She handed Xiao Xue a light blue chiffon long-sleeved dress.

The moment it was brought out, Xiao Xue's attention was drawn to it, and she paid no more attention to her son.

When the little guy saw that his mother had received a gift, he also squatted down next to Bai Jing, as if saying, "Where's mine? Where's mine?"

Bai Jing didn't disappoint him. She took out a box and said, "This is for Duo Duo. Open it and see if you like it."

The box contains the latest trendy toys, a complete set, including a tin frog, glass beads, and more.

Because it's a set, there are quite a few items inside; it's a fairly large box.

Fearing the little guy wouldn't be able to open it, Bai Jing opened it for him herself and placed it on the ground so he could sit and play.

"You've gone to too much trouble. This dress must have cost a lot of money." After the initial excitement came the heartache. Xiao Xue wasn't poor, but she was usually quite frugal, after all, she had a child to raise, and now that she wasn't working, she naturally had to be careful with her money.

"What are you saying? We're not going to talk about money like that. Sister Xiao, go try it on and see if I bought the wrong size." Afraid of making her feel guilty, Bai Jing didn't intend to mention the price.

Naturally, Xiao Xue received a dress, and Song Dongling received the same, except that one family had a boy and the other a girl, so the gifts for the two children were different.

Lele bought a set of dolls, but they weren't the big kind.

Song Dongling's dress was bright red. When she saw the dress, she felt that it suited Song Jie very well because she could bring out the style of the dress.

Wei Huiyan's family also had one, but Bai Jing bought it for her son, so she decided against it; their relationship wasn't that good.

What Bai Jing didn't know was that Xiao Wei, in an effort to salvage his relationship with his wife, had already left City A with his wife and children and gone to work in City D.

She's been gone for over a month, so this gift is destined never to be delivered.

When Xiao Xue came out after changing her clothes, she saw that the things on the ground were divided into several piles.

"How much stuff did you buy? Don't you think it's heavy? You must be tired from carrying it all the way back." Xiao Xue, now dressed in a dress, seemed like a completely different person.

But Bai Jing felt something was strange and looked at her head again and again.

"Sister Xiao, let me comb your hair. Your braids don't match your dress." Yes, the hairstyle doesn't match.

"You can do this too? I didn't know that." Xiao Xue laughed. "Then I'll trouble you. I'll go for a stroll in the street in my new clothes later." She smiled very happily.

“Sure, I’m going to buy some groceries. Let’s eat at home tonight. We’ll let Sister Song know later.” Bai Jing had no objections and was unusually happy.

"No problem, I'll do whatever you say."

Bai Jing is quite handy; in no time, she loosened Xiao Xue's hair and started braiding a new hairstyle for her with a comb.

Duoduo was already playing by herself and had no interest in what her mother and aunt were doing.

In about ten minutes, Xiao Xue's long hair was transformed into a centipede braid and tied at the back. Bai Jing even took out a silk scarf to use as a hair accessory and braided it into the centipede braid as well.

The pale yellow scarf stood out beautifully against her dark hair, and paired with her light blue dress, she looked absolutely gorgeous.

When Bai Jing was in town, she gave Xiao Xue and Song Dongling some rejuvenating cream, which improved their skin. They were already beauties without any makeup, let alone with a little makeup. I'm afraid even if Nan Lichen were here, he might not dare to recognize that this was his simple wife.

"Alright, let's go inside and take a look. There's a big mirror inside." Bai Jing put her things away and then said to Xiao Xue with a smile.

Xiao Xue couldn't wait to go inside, because there was a large full-length mirror on the wardrobe.

Jiang Chen specially bought this for Bai Jing.

A moment later, a scream came from inside the house, startling Bai Jing and Duo Duo.

Fortunately, as the noise stopped, a figure darted out of the house. "Xiao Jing, you're so skillful! Is that really me? I almost didn't recognize myself."

Bai Jing smiled without saying a word, simply watching her get excited.

"No, I'm going to the hospital to see Dongling later and let her see how beautiful I am." Xiao Xue was thrilled at the thought of the envy in Dongling's eyes.

"Xiao Jing, let's take a detour to the hospital later," she asked Bai Jing with hopeful eyes.

Bai Jing didn't care, "I'll listen to you."

After packing her things, Bai Jing followed Xiao Xue and carried Duo Duo out of the yard.

After locking the door, the two headed straight for the hospital where Song Dongling was.

When Song Dongling found her, she didn't recognize Xiao Xue at first.

If Bai Jing and Duo Duo hadn't been following behind her, she would have mistaken Xiao Xue for a stranger.

It was Duoduo's "Mom" that brought Song Dongling back to her senses.

"My God, have you met a deity?" Song Dongling whispered in Xiao Xue's ear after her initial surprise.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Bai Jing made this for me, isn't it pretty?"

"It's beautiful, it's beautiful, I want it too." Song Dongling looked at Bai Jing with teary eyes, "I want to become beautiful too."

Song Dongling has taken leave.

In the afternoon, the three of them bought vegetables, rice, flour, and cooking oil, and then hailed a rickshaw to take them home.

As soon as she got home, Song Dongling asked Bai Jing to comb her hair too.

Bai Jing had no choice but to give her the same hairstyle as Xiao Xue, except that the color of the scarf on her head was different.

After all, she didn't have two identical scarves.

A bright red dress paired with a black and gold silk scarf looks great. As soon as she put it together, Song Dongling said she wanted to buy a pair of leather shoes the next day to match her dress.

Xiao Xue agreed with this point, saying, "I think so too."

Bai Jing was truly helpless.
