Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 323 Nine Years Old
Congcong felt right at home when she arrived at Shi Xia's house.

It was very clever. In order to please Shi Xia, it learned to sweep the floor with a broom in its mouth, to fetch water by itself, and to catch mice.

They were still fighting with the little eagle to catch it!
Although the little eagle was unhappy that his job had been taken away, he also had an extra person to share the daily task of picking up and dropping off three children at school.

Let's leave it at that for now.

As the children grow up, Shi Xia's task of taking care of them becomes easier and easier.

The children have been in school for a few months, and the Lunar New Year is just around the corner.

Shi Xia received a call from Baldy.

"marry?"

"Yeah, girl, you already have three kids, so I'm a bachelor, I guess I have to get married."

"That's true, I'll be there on time."

"okay!"

Shi Xia hung up the phone, thanked the operator, and returned to her family compound.

At night, after the children were asleep, she sat in front of the dressing table and smoothed her hair.

Wen Cheng'an came in after washing up, still damp from the water.

"I come."

He took the comb and began to comb his hair, one stroke at a time.

Looking in the mirror, Shi Xia saw Wen Cheng'an, who was shirtless.

His intentions are crystal clear!

Are you satisfied with what you see?

Shi Xia simply turned around, pressed her face against Wen Cheng'an's abdomen, and drew circles with her fingers.

"I'm very satisfied, extremely satisfied."

Wen Chengan was slightly pleased; an extra hour of training every day was worth it, as long as his wife was happy.

"I'm going to Baldy's wedding the day after tomorrow."

"Is Baldy getting married?"

"Ah."

Shi Xia nodded and rubbed her face against him.

"Behave yourself, your hair isn't combed yet."

"I don't know who was being dishonest, coming out without clothes on."

"I simply forgot."

"Do you think I believe it?"

Whether you believe it or not is no longer important, because what follows will happen naturally.

Two days later, Shi Xia went to the bald man's wedding alone, carrying gifts.

The bald man personally came out to greet him and introduced his wife.

She is a well-educated young lady with the air of a lady from a prominent family, yet she is also very approachable.

She doesn't come across as aloof; it's her good upbringing that shines through.

When Shi Xia secretly spoke to the bald man, she asked, "Where did you find such a good wife?"

"Okay, I also think I'm lucky."

Shi Xia agreed.

“Her family fell on hard times, and I lent a hand, but I didn’t have any romantic feelings for them. I just left after helping out. Two years later, we met again, and we thought it was a good match, so we got married.”

"Congratulations."

Shi Xia attended a simple wedding banquet, where she ate a meal with only her family and close friends.

Extravagance is out of the question, and firecrackers are not allowed.

After the meal, Shi Xia left her gift and departed.

Not long after she left, the bald man's wife came out carrying a nanmu wood box the size of a brick.

"It's so precious."

The box was filled with the finest pearls and various jewels and gemstones, a whole box full.

"It's okay, just keep it. My sister really wants to give it to me."

The bald man's wife had seen plenty of good things, but she rarely saw such a large box being given away as a gift.

Where should we put this?

She was also afraid of being found out and facing further accusations; she really couldn't take any more trouble.

"Give me."

"Ah."

Baldy had a lot of good stuff, but he hid it all away.

Someone who can shut down the black market before the chaos begins and then disappear without a trace must have some real skills. Actually, in recent years, the county where Baldy Brother lives has been quite quiet because of Shi Xia's presence.

The bald guy is proud; his sister is really amazing!
After attending the wedding, Shi Xia went straight home.

There are eight days left until Chinese New Year.

She planned to send the children and several animals back to Hai San Island ahead of time, while she and Wen Chengan would stay at home alone for a few days.

Thinking of something and then doing it—that's Shi Xia's drive.

She packed up her children and several pets and sent them to Hai San Island.

She waved goodbye and returned to the family compound without leaving a trace.

That evening, before Wen Chengan even reached his doorstep, he had already guessed what was going on.

Because it's too quiet.

If the three of them were at home, you could hear their shouts from afar.

Wen Cheng'an quickened his pace a bit. Could he choose freely tonight?
Xue Gang watched Wen Cheng'an run away with a mocking smile.

"The kids aren't home. I'm so envious."

If only his mother-in-law lived nearby, the young couple's affectionate behavior now is like that of thieves.

Lin Sisi's husband, who was standing nearby, nodded in agreement: "Who can argue with that?"

"Get out of my way. At least your mother-in-law lives on land, not far away. I live in Beijing."

"Hehe, you're right. I'll send my twins to her maternal grandmother's house tomorrow."

Xue Gang was so angry he laughed. So he's the only one without any help?!
Wen Chengan's "happy" life began.

Posture, location, clothing—any combination is acceptable.

Two days before the Lunar New Year, Shi Xia had to return to Hai San Island.

Wen Cheng'an was like a big dog, hugging Shi Xia's waist and acting cute in the house.

"I miss you."

"You'll see it in a couple of days. Besides, I said I'd bring the kids back to celebrate the New Year with you, but you wouldn't let me."

"I spend the Spring Festival with the soldiers, so I don't have time to spend with you."

"I know, then we'll be together once you're done."

"Ah."

Wen Cheng'an let go of her hand, and Shi Xia cupped his face and gave him a heavy kiss.

"Miss you!"

Wen Chengan: I want to even more.

It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to simplicity!

Shi Xia returned to Hai San Island and helped out for two days. The children's fourth Lunar New Year had begun.

The children received so many red envelopes that their hands were sore. It wasn't just the elderly in their families; every elder in the village would give them red envelopes.

They give it not only to elders, but also to children older than them.

They didn't give much; it was just for the sake of celebration, so Shi Xia went along with them.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the three of them, along with Congcong and Dabai, went from house to house to wish everyone a Happy New Year. The children in the village were extremely happy, running around to each other's homes.

Before noon, the three siblings returned, all their pockets filled with food.

It's either delicious food or red envelopes.

Wen Chengan took a break on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

The family had another lively time, and Wen Cheng'an finally got to hold his wife.

Year after year, year after year.

The three siblings spent one Spring Festival after another on the three islands in the sea until 1977.

The three of them will be turning nine soon.

Each of the three received a bowl of longevity noodles, made by Grandpa Shi himself.

A large table of dishes was set up, and the family sat around celebrating.

Old Man Xu, Xu Danqing, and Old Man Shan were all there, as were the Qu couple, but they were about to leave.

"Shi Xia, you can keep the house for me. We'll come back after we've taken care of things back home."

"Yes, my old lady still needs to live here in her old age."

Shi Xia smiled and nodded: "No problem."

The family raised their glasses in a toast, and the three siblings were much more composed as they drank their beverages and celebrated together.

"Happy birthday!"

The day after the birthday party, the three members of the Qu family left.

They went back to reclaim the Qu family's property and house, and everything was fine after the storm.
