Chapter 177 Glass Making

Grandpa Shi said "Wait" and then turned and rushed into the house to get busy.

Shi Xia happily followed them inside, but quickly retreated and walked to the window.

Glass?

Where is it?
Shi Xia looked up and saw that all the windows in the house had been fitted with glass.

She walked a few steps to the wall, climbed over it, and looked at her aunt's house next door. There was glass there too, though not as clear as modern glass, but it was real glass.

"What is Shi Xia doing?"

When Auntie came out, she saw Shi Xia on the wall.

"Auntie, where did this glass come from?"

She had originally planned to take a trip to R country.

"This... it was done by that kid Yamamoto Sei. I can't really explain it. You should ask him yourself."

Yamamoto Tsuyoshi?
Shi Xia nodded and climbed down from the wall. After saying goodbye to Grandpa Shi, she went to find Shan Yuancheng.

Grandpa Shan Yuancheng, along with Old Man Xu, Xu Danhong, and Xu Danqing, lived in the same courtyard, keeping each other company.

They were in Shi Xia's front yard, separated by a road.

Shi Xia walked out of her house and took a detour, only to find that every household had installed windows.

"Shi Xia is back."

"Brother Shi Xia, my mom gave you some dried squid."

"My grandma made the shrimp paste."

Shi Xia walked along, collecting things as she went. It didn't matter if she didn't have hands to carry them; they would deliver them home.

As they chatted, Shi Xia arrived at Shan Yuancheng's house. Shan Yuancheng was reading a book in the yard, while Xu Danqing was scratching her hair beside him.

Shi Xia walked in and stood behind Xu Danqing, and saw the reason why Xu Danqing was scratching his head: 7+8=?

With both hands tangled up by Xu Danqing, he looked at Shan Yuancheng expectantly and asked, "Brother Yuancheng, can I borrow your hands?"

"I won't lend it to you. You can calculate it yourself."

Shan Yuancheng put down his book, stood up, smiled at Shi Xia, and greeted her politely, like a little gentleman.

"Hello, Sister Shixia."

Upon hearing this, Xu Danqing quickly turned around, stood up happily, and danced with joy.

"Sister Shixia, you're finally back! I've missed you so much!"

Xu Danqing has become much more outgoing, and Shi Xia often includes him in her activities. He's less afraid of Shi Xia and more affectionate towards her.

“That’s great. I’ve missed you all too. Here’s what I’m telling you: go break off twenty tree branches and use them as fingers.”

Xu Danqing's eyes lit up, and he took off running.

"Sister, isn't picking up stones even simpler?"

“I know, this is just to give him some work to do.”

Shi Xia gestured for Shan Yuancheng to sit down and asked about the glass.

"Sister, glass only requires alkali, limestone, silica sand, mixed in a certain proportion, and then fired."

Shi Xia understood; Shan Yuancheng had used the materials to make a batch of glass himself.

"Yamamoto Cheng, what you said is like teaching me how to fly a plane. Open the door, get in, and you're good to go."

Yamamoto Shigeaki asked, pursing his lips in confusion, "Sister, that's how it's supposed to be."

Shi Xia realized that the world of top students and the world of poor students are different.

"Okay, so how did you find these materials?"

“I didn’t find it. I told Teacher Fu Qiang that my sister was short of glass. Teacher Fu Qiang suggested that we could make a batch ourselves. Then he asked the army for help. The materials were collected from many islands and that was about enough. Then it was about the proportions and temperature control. A few were damaged at first, but in the end, we made enough for the three islands in the sea. We even gave a little bit to the army.”

Shi Xia understood; it was the result of help from many parties.

"clever!"

"Ok, I know."

Yamamoto Masaru made no attempt to be modest in admitting his intelligence.

Shi Xia didn't stay long; her grandfather was still waiting for her to come home for dinner.

For dinner, Shi Xia enjoyed seafood pancakes made by Grandpa Shi. The food brought by various households was so plentiful that it couldn't all be placed on the table. After eating and drinking her fill, Shi Xia lay comfortably in the rocking chair. To her left, Little Eagle was flapping its wings, and to her right, Little Gold was flapping its wings, creating a natural fan.

Big White finally finished its night patrol and swayed back.

As soon as it returned, it started barking loudly at Little Gold. Little Gold seemed to understand and went over to Big White, nuzzling against it affectionately.

"Gah!"

With a squeak, Xiao Jinzi made Shi Xia spit out a mouthful of coconut water.

Does the golden eagle call "ga-ga"?
No wonder he was raised by Da Bai.

Big White patted Little Gold's head with its wing, and Little Gold shook its head and hopped back.

Immediately afterward, Big White started cawing at the little eagle, but the little eagle arrogantly shook its head and didn't move at all.

The big white thing squealed loudly, like an old woman accusing her unfilial children and grandchildren.

Shi Xia didn't participate; she just watched the excitement from the sidelines.

Hearing the lively chatter in Shi Xia's courtyard, the aunt next door smiled and said, "It's always more lively when Shi Xia comes back."

"That's not the case!"

Uncle Wen nodded in agreement, and the elderly couple were also happy.

I never dared to dream of living like this. I have a big house, money in my pocket, and I eat and drink well. It's really great.

When Shi Xia returned to the three islands of Hai, he naturally took his fishing boat out to fish.

During the short time she was away, the fishing boats also went out to sea, but they were used to the straightforwardness of going out to sea with Shi Xia. They cast their nets and caught something. They searched and searched and searched and found something, but compared with Shi Xia, it was really like a small witch seeing a great wizard.

In comparison, everyone's longing for Shi Xia has increased exponentially.

Early in the morning, Shi Xia, along with the food and snacks prepared for her by her aunt and grandfather, led her fishing team out to sea.

Uncle Cao grinned from ear to ear; with Shi Xia back, he felt at ease.

On the first day, Shi Xia did not go far, returning on the same day. The fishing boat had a good catch. Cao Ping took people to the mainland to sell the goods, while Shi Xia went down from Haiming Island to see Wen Cheng'an.

But she really likes her boyfriend.

Wen Cheng-an even has abs now.

Shi Xia greeted everyone familiarly along the way. When they arrived at the gate, she said she was looking for Wen Cheng'an. The young soldier at the gate asked around, and finally Battalion Commander Cheng came out.

"Shi Xia, when did you get back?"

Shi Xia looked behind Battalion Commander Cheng and asked, "Where's the training?"

"hehe--"

"Just tell me."

Upon hearing "hehe," Shi Xia knew it wasn't training.

Battalion Commander Cheng pointed in a direction, and Shi Xia followed him.

"Wen Cheng'an is on a mission, and I can't say anything else."

Shi Xia looked thoughtfully at Battalion Commander Cheng without saying a word.

Battalion Commander Cheng subconsciously held his breath. He felt quite pressured facing Shi Xia; no wonder Commander Wei didn't come out.

"That summer—"

"Okay, I'm leaving."

Shi Xia left without asking any questions.

Battalion Commander Cheng, however, was not used to it and chased after them.

"Aren't you going to ask anymore?"

"Didn't you say I shouldn't ask?"

"I'm not allowed to ask, it's just that you walked a little too fast."

Shi Xia stopped and turned around.

"Battalion Commander Cheng, I know Wen Cheng'an is a soldier."

Shi Xia nodded to Battalion Commander Cheng and left gracefully.

Battalion Commander Cheng was heartbroken. His words, "Wen Cheng'an is a soldier," revealed the sorrow of countless military wives.
