Chapter 189 Vacation
Shi Xia went to bed very early that night. She had been adrift at sea for a long time and was quite tired.
Even as I fell asleep, I was still thinking about when Wen Chengan would be able to come out.
The next morning, a figure quietly disembarked from the patrol boat, carrying a backpack and returning in military uniform.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?"
The villagers who got up early did not recognize Wen Chengan at first glance.
"Third Aunt, it's me, Wen Cheng'an!"
The woman who was called Third Aunt stepped forward, squinted, and looked closely for a while.
"My goodness, who would recognize this? How did he get so muscular? I remember he was so skinny back then that a gust of wind could blow him away."
"Yes, I've been exercising, and I'm stronger now."
When Wen Chengan spoke up, Third Aunt laughed so hard her eyes disappeared.
"Hey, you've learned to talk now, you're not like the guy who disliked everyone before."
Wen Cheng'an didn't mind being criticized to his face at all, and said with a smile, "I was ignorant back then, it was my fault!"
"Third Aunt, what are you doing? Let me help you."
"No, no, go home quickly, your parents miss you so much."
"Okay, then I'll be going now, Third Aunt."
Wen Chengan walked towards the village, and the next second his face fell.
He's lost!
The entire village was redesigned by the old man from the mountain; the houses were all very similar, and he had no idea where his own home was.
"Gah?"
A goose-like cry with a question mark sounded behind Wen Cheng'an. He suddenly smiled, turned around, and looked at Da Bai.
"Big White! Did you miss me?!"
Da Bai was so frightened by Wen Cheng'an's enthusiasm that he took several steps back. This guy is crazy.
A funny scene unfolded in the village: Big White ran ahead, and Wen Cheng'an chased after it.
Wen Cheng'an was both amused and exasperated as he chased after him, but then something even more absurd happened: Da Bai's friends came running over with tree branches.
"Don't bully Baymax!"
"Where did this madman come from, daring to steal our Big White? State your name!"
The child could tell from listening to a lot of storytelling performances that the storyteller had heard countless times.
Wen Cheng'an reluctantly introduced himself again.
"I am Wen Cheng'an, Wen Laoshi's son, and Shi Xia's boyfriend."
The first two sentences were fine, but when it came to the sentence about Shi Xia's girlfriend, the children became wary.
"Does Boss Shi Xia have a girlfriend?"
"I don't know, isn't Boss Shi Xia all his underlings?"
"There's something wrong with this person!"
"I'm going to find the village chief!"
The child ran off without warning, and Wen Chengan reached out to call out, only to be surrounded by a group of children.
He couldn't really argue with a child, so he had no choice but to stand obediently inside the circle.
A short while later, Uncle Cao arrived and smiled when he saw Wen Cheng'an.
No wonder the children don't recognize him; he even has a hard time recognizing them.
"Wen Cheng'an."
"Uncle Cao."
"Why are you back?"
Uncle Cao was still a little worried that yesterday's events might have affected him, so Wen Cheng'an quickly explained, "I've been promoted. I'm now the deputy battalion commander, and I have five days off."
"A promotion? That's great, that's great!"
Uncle Cao seemed even happier than Wen Cheng'an; Shi Xia's efforts had not been in vain.
Uncle Cao dismissed the group of children and personally led Wen Cheng'an on a tour, introducing the village as they walked.
"That's the drying yard. Suitable fish that are caught are dried into dried goods, which can fetch more than twice the price."
“That’s the village square, and the children’s playground is also there. In the evenings, when everyone has nothing to do, they chat there, and the children like to play there.”
"That's the warehouse over there. Every day, the harvested water spinach is packed up there and sent out."
"That's where seaweed and kelp seedlings are cultivated. They'll be planted at sea, and the commune has already signed agreements with them to buy them."
As Uncle Cao recounted the changes in the village, Wen Cheng'an was filled with emotion. He knew Shi Xia was capable, but only when he saw it with his own eyes did he realize how many meaningful things she had done.
His partner is truly an amazing person!
"You've arrived at your home. This is your home, and Shi Xia's home is next door."
"Thank you, Uncle Cao."
"It's okay, just treat Shi Xia well."
"I definitely will."
Uncle Cao nodded and stopped arguing. He wasn't worried about Shi Xia at all; he was worried about Wen Cheng'an.
If Wen Cheng'an treats Shi Xia badly, neither the Wen family nor the three islands of Hai will be happy, let alone Shi Xia, who takes revenge without hesitation.
Looking at Shi Xia's house next door, Wen Cheng'an thought for a moment and then knocked on the Wen family's door first.
"coming!"
The aunt came to open the door, and when she did, she froze on the spot.
"Mom, I'm back."
"Why are you back? Did you get fired?"
Wen Cheng'an's lips twitched; it really was his biological mother.
"Mom, I've been promoted to deputy battalion commander. I get five days off."
"Oh, this is great! Finally, something presentable!"
Wen Chengan: What can you offer as a presentable gift?
Auntie quickly pulled Wen Chengan inside, muttering, "I was afraid you weren't good enough for Shi Xia. Although you're still a bit short, it's still better than before."
Wen Cheng'an suddenly realized, and he vowed that there would definitely be no more conflicts between his mother and daughter-in-law in his family.
Wen Cheng'an greeted Wen Laoshi, and Wen Laoshi asked about what had happened before.
"The investigation has been completed. I'm fine. If I were, I wouldn't be getting promoted."
"It's okay."
Wen Laoshi felt relieved and pointed to the next room, saying, "I'll stay home for a few days and keep Shi Xia company."
"I know, I won't go anywhere these next few days."
"Silly boy, how can you not go anywhere? Take Shixia to town for a stroll. How can young people in love not show any affection? You were trapped inside and couldn't get out. Now that you finally have some time, if you don't show your affection, when will you?"
Wen Chengan: Does that sound awkward?
"Oh, okay."
Wen Cheng'an smiled and agreed. After putting down his backpack, he was chased by his aunt to the next room.
When they arrived at Wen Cheng'an's house next door, the door opened before they even knocked. Grandpa Shi stood in the doorway, with Xiao Jinzi on his left and Xiao Yingzai on his right, their six eyes fixed on Wen Cheng'an.
Even Wen Cheng'an, who had seen many big occasions, was a little apprehensive, feeling like a live-in son-in-law being scrutinized.
"coming."
"Grandpa Shi, I'm here."
Wen Cheng'an dared not even breathe loudly, for this was Shi Xia's grandfather.
"come in."
Grandpa Shi turned around, but Little Eagle and Little Gold stood motionless, blocking the doorway.
Wen Cheng'an smiled wryly: I knew it wouldn't be so easy to get in.
"Brother Eagle, Brother Jin, can we make a deal? Can I go in?"
The little eagle and the little goldfish remained unmoved, each stretching out a wing.
Wen Chengan: What do you mean?
"Caw caw caw! Caw caw!"
Big White came back, swaying back and forth.
Wen Cheng'an watched as Da Bai placed a fish on a plate by the door, and Xiao Jinzi lowered its head to eat it, making two squeaking noises. Wen Cheng'an's eyelids twitched at the sound.
Is that what the golden eagle is called?
However, he did understand it.
He came empty-handed, which is rather unrefined.
"It's my fault, I'll be right back!"
Wen Chengan hurriedly ran back to the next house, and when he came back, he brought two big fish, which he gave to Little Eagle and Little Gold.
The two of them glanced at it, looking slightly disgusted; the food was too poor.
Never mind, let him in.
