In the room, Lu Yunge was telling Xu Jianli the news he got from the commander, and finally congratulated him insincerely, "Congratulations."

"Thank you, and congratulations."

Xu Jianli said thank you, but there was no joy on his face. Instead, he looked solemn, as if he would have heavier responsibilities in the future.

Thinking of the few people who didn't return from this mission, he couldn't feel the slightest bit of joy about the promotion.

He took the opportunity to ask Lu Yunge, "I am not feeling well. For those who didn't return to the team this time, please take care of them and get them some more pensions, and help take care of their families."

"Don't worry, they are all the most heroic martyrs. I will definitely strive for the most generous pension for them."

"Thank you, leader!"

Xu Jianli's thanks this time were obviously much more heartfelt than before.

Lu Yunge used to think that although Xu Jianli was capable, his usual serious look was still too boring.

Now, he was about to lose this boring right-hand man, he felt that this kind of seriousness seemed to be quite pleasing and cute.

He suppressed the regret that he could no longer have Xu Jianli, and waved his hand nonchalantly, "Why thank me? It's my job. Before you were incorporated into the new reconnaissance battalion, you were still my soldiers."

Xu Jianli said, "Even if I join the reconnaissance battalion, I am still your soldier. You will always be our commander."

Lu Yunge was very pleased with his words, and his depression gradually dissipated. He joked, "No, I want to be promoted too."

Xu Jianli was amused by him and curled his lips slightly.

Lu Yunge talked about the house again. "Although the division commander has decided to take over you and Comrade Su personally, I still have to stand my last shift. I will arrange your house in two days. The division commander intends to visit Comrade Su, so I will arrange the time after you move in?"

Xu Jianli had something to say about the house. "We have no objection to your arrangement of the house, but I think Yuanyuan and I will not move to the new house. The new house will be given to the guards to live in."

"First, we can give them a spacious place for training. Second, we can let them live separately from us so we don't have to worry about too many people affecting Yuanyuan's work."

Lu Yunge felt that it was inappropriate at first, but the more he listened, the more he felt that his arrangement was good.

Xu Jianli continued, "Moreover, Yuanyuan hides her identity mainly because she wants to live an ordinary life and doesn't want to be overly noticed or disturbed. People here don't know her identity. If we move to a bigger house hastily, I won't be able to meet her rank and I don't have a good reason to justify it, which will only lead to criticism."

Lu Yunge nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, you are right. I almost overlooked such a big problem! Then let's do as you say. I won't ask you to move. I will secretly arrange a house for you to accommodate Comrade Su's guards."

Xu Jianli smiled gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work."

Su Yuanyuan, who was talking with her mother and Lin Qingyin outside, was also listening to the entire conversation between the two.

When she heard this, the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up secretly. She didn't believe the high-sounding reasons Xu Jianli gave.

Why is he afraid that she will be disturbed or criticized by others? In fact, he is afraid that his own happy life will be affected, right?

Of course, she was also very happy to be able to continue living in this small courtyard without being disturbed.

Although the place is not big, it is warm and cozy.

When the child is born in the future, two rooms will be enough for their family of four to live in for a few years. When the child grows up and needs to live separately, Xu Jianli will probably have reached a higher position and can get a bigger house.

Thinking about this, Su Yuanyuan inexplicably felt a wonderful sense of security as a wife with a husband working hard outside to protect her from the wind and rain.

Although she doesn't need to.

The dinner was very sumptuous, and was prepared by Liu Fangzhi and Su Qiu Sheng together, because Su Yuanyuan invited Captain Lu and his wife to have dinner.

It’s not that she was very active in inviting him, but mainly because Captain Lu came into the room and talked with Xu Jianli until dark.

From serious matters to trivial matters, from major events to trivial matters, until the room was filled with the aroma of cooking from the kitchen, Lu Yunge never showed any intention of getting up and leaving.

So, when Lin Qing glanced at the door of the room several times, wishing she could rush in and take Lu Yunge away, Su Yuanyuan made an invitation.

"Uncle Lu and Jian Li must have something important to discuss. It will probably be late when they finish. Aunt and Uncle Lu can just stay for dinner tonight."

Lin Qingyin was polite at first, "No, no, he should be here soon."

Later, after waiting for a long time, Lu Yunge still didn't come out. He was so angry that he scolded Lu Yunge for being shameless no less than a hundred times. He simply said, "Why don't I go back first."

Su Yuanyuan naturally couldn't let her go alone, so she kept her there no matter what.

Just like that, Lu Yunge happily attended Su Yuanyuan's family reunion dinner...Su Guoguo was also called back.

At the dinner table, Captain Lu acted more like a host than the host. He kept urging everyone to eat more. He enthusiastically discussed agricultural knowledge with Liu Fangzhi, and then lovingly asked about Su Guoguo and Su Qiu Sheng's recent situation.

This meal was really not in vain. After the meal, he really got into the inner circle of the Su family.

Mainly, he shared some passionate stories from his youth, which stunned both generations of the Su family. Even Su Yuanyuan couldn't help but admire him.

By the time they had finished dinner and left, Su Yuanyuan had already been very polite and just called him "Uncle Lu".

The couple walked home with the little light coming through other people's windows. Lu Yunge asked Lin Qingyin with great pride, "How is it, isn't your husband awesome? There is nothing in the world that I can't do."

Lin Qingyin: “…”

It's all about being thick-skinned, right?

Although she felt extremely disgusted in her heart, Lin Qingyin had to admit that there was light in Lu Yunge.

As he himself said, there is nothing he cannot do. Once he decides to do something, he will immediately put in 200% of his enthusiasm and plunge into it regardless of the consequences until he achieves his goal.

Lin Qing was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Yunge's pride and started talking about another topic.

"Su Yuanyuan asked me a question today, which I found quite strange."

"What's the problem?" Lu Yunge immediately calmed down and asked.

"Ask me...whether I would consider going back to work. Weird, isn't it? By the way, you only said that you wanted to have a good relationship with Su Yuanyuan's family, but you never told me why. What is so special about Su Yuanyuan?"
