Zhang Jingjing didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of waking up the two children, so she could only whisper, "I miss you too, every day. I think of you and even dream about you. Fortunately, you're back. That's great."

Zhang Jingjing buried her whole face in Huo Changqing's neck and breathed in his scent. This was a scent that made her feel at ease. It was not found on anyone else, only Huo Changqing had it.

Thinking of the long journey over the past two months, Huo Changqing suddenly felt that it was not so hard after all. It was all worth it to be able to hold Zhang Jingjing in his arms.

"I'm sorry Jingjing, I wasn't able to be with you when you gave birth. I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a husband. I owe you that."

Hearing Huo Changqing say this, Zhang Jingjing couldn't help but bite his neck. Huo Changqing was not around when she gave birth, so she must have felt aggrieved.

For a woman, this is like walking through the gates of hell. She must feel regretful because her husband cannot be with her.

But later she figured it out. Although her work was very hard, what Huo Changqing did might be able to save more people. He had responsibilities on his shoulders, and as a military wife, she should fully support him.

"You don't owe me anything. You completed the task assigned by your superiors, which is more important to me than anything else. Now that you can come back alive to see me, that is the most beautiful thing in the world."

Hearing Zhang Jingjing being so reasonable, Huo Changqing, a grown man, also had tears in his eyes.

With a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for?

The two of them whispered a lot of things, and soon Zhang Jingjing fell asleep.

Although Huo Changqing was tired, he kept paying attention to the two children. The children would cry if they were hungry, no matter whether it was day or night.

Zhang Jingjing had gotten used to it recently. She was about to get up to breastfeed when she was held down by Huo Changqing.

"I'll make them some milk powder. You go to sleep. Don't get up tonight."

When Zhang Jingjing was pregnant, Huo Changqing had already learned a lot about childcare and knew how much milk a baby should drink at one time and what the temperature should be.

When Zhang Jingjing heard him say that, she didn't say anything polite and just turned over and went to sleep.

Although Liu Ma helped, it was not easy for her to take care of two children. In addition, she had been thinking about Huo Changqing recently, and she was under a lot of psychological pressure.

Now that her man is back and can provide for her, she will not refuse him pretentiously.

After Huo Changqing fed the two children, he changed their diapers and wiped their butts, and then fell asleep again while holding Zhang Jingjing.

Both of them slept very soundly that night. The next morning, Zhang Jingjing woke up first. Seeing Huo Changqing still sleeping, she felt distressed. She thought that he must have hurried back in order to see her earlier. He might not have gotten much rest. He also helped her take care of the children last night, so he was still asleep.

Otherwise, according to Huo Changqing's habit, he would usually wake up around six o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Jingjing covered him with the quilt and walked out of the yard carefully.

The three children woke up a long time ago. They had been together for a while last night and now wanted to get close to Huo Changqing, so they were waiting at the door early.

When I saw Zhang Jingjing coming out, I couldn't help but look back.

"Mom, where's my dad? Is he still sleeping?"

Zhang Jingjing nodded, "Your dad is too tired and is still sleeping. You can play with him when he wakes up."

The three children nodded and went to eat obediently.

Wu Peilan was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. She was smiling while eating breakfast. The whole family was naturally very happy.

Since Huo Changqing is back, it means the mission has been accomplished. As for the matter of his fake death, the troops also have to resolve it.

Those who are waiting to laugh at them will probably not be able to laugh after knowing the truth.

"Let's eat first. Changqing is very tired. I left some food for him on the stove."

Wu Peilan invited everyone to eat, and just as she finished speaking, Huo Changqing came out.

"Why didn't you call me for dinner?"

Zhang Jingjing smiled and said, "I don't want to disturb your sleep, but since you are awake, come over and eat."

Huo Changqing sat down, took the three children in his arms, pricked their faces with his stubble, and then prepared to eat.

The old man's serious face was full of smiles as he ate and chatted.

"Chang Qing, you have made a first-class contribution this time, right? I guess you will be promoted soon."

Huo Changqing was promoted to regiment leader a while ago, and he has made merit this time. It is estimated that he may be promoted. Although the frequency is indeed a bit high, he does have the ability.

The army is a place where rewards are given based on merit. Huo Changqing has contributed so much, and this is what he deserves.

Huo Changqing smiled and said, "I don't know yet. I have to wait for the arrangement from the army."

He didn't say anything for sure. After all, no one from above said anything, so they could only guess.

Zhang Jingjing thought about it and thought that if Huo Changqing was promoted again, he would be a brigade commander. Such a young brigade commander would probably be the first in Beijing. If this news got out, many people would be envious.

He picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in Huo Changqing's bowl. "Eat more. I see you have lost weight. You must have suffered a lot recently."

Of course, they couldn't ask what the mission was, but they could all see that Huo Changqing had lost a lot of weight.

The family was eating happily. Wu Peilan and her friends planned to take a day off today and stay at home.

Now that my son is back, why should I still go to work?

Just then, a neighbor came to borrow salt. When he saw Huo Changqing, he almost dropped the salt jar.

"Oh my god, I saw a ghost in broad daylight!"

As he said this, he was about to run out. Seeing this, Wu Peilan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry and quickly grabbed him back.

"Aunt Zhang, Chang Qing is not a ghost. It was a misunderstanding before. It was not my son who died. He came back last night."

When the aunt heard what Wu Peilan said, some color returned to her face.

"Oh my god, I was so scared. I thought I saw a ghost in broad daylight. It turned out to be like this. I'm so sorry. I made you laugh. I told you that Changqing was so lucky and had a good life. How could he die? God must be merciful."

Aunt Zhang said as she took some salt out of the kitchen. She stood there and said a few auspicious words. When she left, she said, "I'll buy you some salt this afternoon and I'll pay you back."

Wu Peilan waved her hand and said, "It's just a little salt, you don't have to give it back."

Aunt Zhang went out with a smile and told her neighbors about the incident.

Everyone was happy that Huo Changqing was not dead and had returned.

The people in the family compound have watched Huo Changqing grow up, so naturally they have some affection for him. Now that they know he is fine, everyone is very happy.

Everyone is going to buy something and come over to see it, which is also a way of congratulating.

Only those who had a bad relationship with the Huo family changed their expressions.

Soon everyone in the family compound knew that Huo Changqing had returned, and everyone gathered at the Huo family.

Wu Peilan was very happy and chatted with everyone.
