Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 157 The sea trial is over, go home

Li Weidong said to his father-in-law, Commander Yang:

"Commander Yang, overall it's OK. The only problem is that the frigate is too small, so we can't reach the maximum speed, especially when turning. It must not exceed 45 knots."

"Weidong, it's already very good. Whether in terms of firepower or speed and defense, it has surpassed most of the warships in the Tang. Let me arrange for the remaining warships to enter the Tianjin Shipyard for renovation."

Commander Yang said excitedly.

Li Weidong thought about it and nodded. After all, the battleship he wanted to build would take a long time, and the initial work was not very busy, so there was still time to refit several of the navy's frigates, so Li Weidong agreed immediately.

"Oh, Chief, I've already told the technicians at the research institute that I need to go back. My wife is about to give birth. I'll come back after she's done."

Li Weidong said to his father-in-law, Chief Yang.

"Well, fine. Just make sure you explain it well and don't delay the frigate's transformation."

Commander Yang nodded and said.

"Don't worry, Commander! I'll make sure everything is in order before I leave."

Commander Yang patted Li Weidong on the shoulder.

"I'm relieved about your words, kid. Go back and take care of Ruoxi. I won't be leaving for now. I'm here to oversee the frigate's renovation. The South China Sea has been a bit restless these past few days!"

"Once my battleships are built and sail through the South China Sea, they'll be quiet. Isn't that what they say? Dignity lies only on the edge of the sword, truth only within the range of the cannon!"

Once the battleships are built, they will circle near their coasts, and the truth will cover their entire territory. Do you think they will dare to jump then? "

Li Weidong said disdainfully.

"Haha! The future of our motherland is still in the hands of young people like you!"

After hearing what Li Weidong said, Commander Yang burst into laughter.

The two chatted for a while about the future development of the navy.

When they arrived at the dock, Li Weidong and Commander Yang got off the frigate and walked towards the shipyard, while the frigate carried the naval soldiers and sailed towards the depths of the ocean, returning to the naval base. After all, they had been out for a long time and the modification had been completed. It was time for them to return to the navy to continue their mission. After all, the current navy has very few warships, only two or three large and small ships. The task of patrolling the sea area is already very heavy. This frigate has been away for so long. After the modification is completed, it must go back to perform its mission as soon as possible.

Moreover, if he returns early, other frigates can be modified earlier. After the modification is completed, they can better protect the motherland's waters from infringement. Therefore, after completing the sea trial, he must return to the naval base as soon as possible.

After Li Weidong and Chief Yang returned to the shipyard, they summoned the technical staff of the shipyard and the 011 Institute and announced the next tasks. After Li Weidong assigned the tasks, he said that he would go back and stay in Sijiu City for a while, and then announced the disbandment.

After the meeting, Li Weidong chatted with Chief Yang for a while, and then he and Lou Xiaoe got on a jeep and went back to Sijiucheng.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Weidong finally returned to Sijiu City. Li Weidong did not go anywhere else, but went straight home. He and Lou Xiaoe prepared a sumptuous dinner at home and waited for his wives to come back.

"Hey, why is our door open? Could it be a thief breaking in?"

"No way! Is Xiaobai back?"

After a while, the voices of Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen could be heard from outside the door. Their courtyard house, located on Qianmen Street, was not far away and was now a joint public-private enterprise. They were not very busy and would get home from get off work around four o'clock every day. They usually cooked the meals at home, as they came home earlier.

"Xiaobai, is that you?"

Chen Xueru's voice came from outside the door.

"No, it's Zhou Xiaobai's brother-in-law who is back." Li Weidong walked out the door and said jokingly.

"Ah! Weidong, you're back!" When Chen Xueru saw that it was Li Weidong, she ran up excitedly, hugged Li Weidong, and covered his mouth with hers.

"Woo, go slower, woo, be careful, there's a baby in your belly!"

After a brief moment of intimacy, the two separated. Li Weidong carefully put Chen Xueru down, then took her and Xu Huizhen's hands and walked back into the house. In the living room, the two couldn't wait to squeeze into Li Weidong's arms. He held their hands and told them about their work and interesting things in Tianjin. He then asked if anything had happened at the store recently and if they had been feeling unwell.

Lou Xiao'e went to lie on the bed in the bedroom. After all, she was a little tired after driving for the whole afternoon. In addition, they hadn't seen Li Weidong for a long time, so she didn't want to disturb them.

Just when the three of them were chatting enthusiastically, Zhou Xiaolin and the other girls came back.

"Brother Dong, when did you come back?" Zhou Xiaolin said in surprise.

"Dongzi, you're finally back! I missed you so much!" Yang Ruoxi ran in quickly and threw herself into Li Weidong's arms.

"Dongzi, why didn't you call me when you came back?" Wang Xinyi said to Li Weidong with deep love in her eyes.

"I just came back a while ago. I wanted to give you a surprise, so I didn't call you." Li Weidong also pulled a few people over, kissed each of them, and asked them to sit down.

Then I talked to them about recent events, including the sea trials of the frigate and the subsequent modifications to the frigate, and said that this time we would wait until they had their babies before leaving together.

He gained unanimous approval from all the women present and received five kisses.

"Okay, let's finish our meal and talk later! The food will get cold soon."

Li Weidong said to the five women.

The five girls nodded, and then started eating and chatting in the living room.

Because Li Weidong did not notify them, Zhou Xiaobai and the six children did not come back tonight.

After dinner, Li Weidong was about to wash the dishes when Yang Ruoxi suddenly called him.

"Dongzi, wash it tomorrow! I miss you!"

Yang Ruoxi said with a dazed look in her eyes.

"Yes, let's wash it tomorrow. You've been driving the car all afternoon and must be tired. Let's rest early!" Chen Xueru said, her eyes revealing an expectant look as she spoke.

Wang Xinyi didn't say anything, but her eyes revealed a look of longing.

Zhou Xiaolin licked the corner of her mouth, waved at Li Weidong, and walked towards the bedroom.

Xu Huizhen was even more direct. She grabbed Li Weidong and dragged him towards the bedroom.

"Hurry up, you've been holding it in for almost two months. Stop dawdling. You can wash the dishes anytime. If you really can't, buy new ones. Get to work! Time is short and the task is heavy. Hurry up!"

"No! Don't worry, I'm not leaving tomorrow!"

Li Weidong smiled bitterly and could only follow him in.

The other three women looked at each other, saw the fire in each other's eyes, and quickly walked into the bedroom.

"Slow down! Watch out, kid!"

"Hey! Come one by one!"

……

The next morning, Li Weidong woke up to cook with dark circles under his eyes. Ugh, he hadn't gotten any rest all night! Logically, Li Weidong's strengthened physique shouldn't have caused him to have dark circles, but he had so many wives. Plus, they all ate spiritually enhanced foods, which strengthened their bodies and gave them a different constitution than normal. So, Li Weidong developed dark circles.

"Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger. The ancients were right!" Li Weidong murmured to himself.
