The Reborn Military Pet: The 60-year old wife is so hot

CHAPTER 158

Professor Zhou Yan and the others also learned that Ou Yuchen had arrived. After helping Ou Yuchen catch fish, they were excited to assist them in making fish balls.

"Just keep boasting. You're already an old man and still trying to show off. If it weren't for Yushun helping you, you would have fallen into the river. You're already an old man and still don't know how to take it easy," Professor Zhou Yan retorted, attempting to sabotage them. Despite their frequent bickering, the two had the best relationship. With Sun Changqing and Professor Zhou Yan occasionally arguing, everyone seemed more energetic. It was healthier to engage in friendly banter.

"It was just a momentary mistake. I was a skilled fisherman when I was young. I caught countless fish. But you, you almost fell when I asked you to pull the net. And you still claim that I don't acknowledge my old age. You're the one who's old. You're a good-for-nothing scholar!" Sun Changqing refused to admit defeat. He raised his neck and refuted, disagreeing with the fact that he was old.

"Who says scholars are useless? I was both civil and military, and I even killed enemies," Professor Zhou Yan retorted unhappily. If his mother had permitted it, he would have joined the army. Maybe he would be a general now, a Confucian general at that.

Seeing the two about to quarrel again, Xu Baozhu brought out hot water with a helpless look to warm their hands and said, "Why are you two arguing again? Aren't you supposed to be working? Be careful not to cut off your fingers while multitasking. The younger generation is still here; aren't you afraid of losing face?"

"These two are never happy unless they're fighting," Bao Sanjin remarked, squatting on the side and peeling garlic cloves, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle of their squabbles. His legs had healed, and he looked nothing like the wretched state he was in when he first arrived with a broken leg.

"All we old folks can do is entertain ourselves," Mr. Bai remarked with a smile on his face. Seeing his smiling wife preparing hot water for everyone in the house, he felt that such days were also very happy.

"It's a blessing to be able to entertain ourselves. We old guys have come to the right place. Looking at the lives of people like us in other villages, I think it's pretty good now."

 Bao Sanjin, who was used to enjoying life, has learned to enjoy his current life. Compared with the glory and extravagance in the past, he can enjoy the days like this now.

"I always feel like they're here to retire," Fang Yuxi commented, standing in the kitchen and listening to the elderly folks chatting and laughing outside, joining in the laughter.

"It's all because of you taking good care of them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have such a comfortable life. I don't know where you got the courage from. No one dared to approach them, but you took a group of children to learn military boxing with them. The villagers turned a blind eye to them, and their treatment improved greatly," 

Ou Yuchen remarked, acknowledging Fang Yuxi's efforts. He lamented that his grandfather and his family lived such a comfortable life in Dongsheng Village. Even if he came, he could not do as well as Xixi.

Fang Yuxi smiled softly. For her, Professor Zhou Yan and his men demolished the cowshed and killed people. It could be said that they killed for her.

When she saw the viciousness and evasion in Qiao Panpan's eyes that night, how could she not understand that she was the one who wrote the letter to report? It turned out that ultimately, it was she who implicated Professor Zhou Yan and others.

Qiao Panpan was a poisonous snake. She had never taken Qiao Panpan seriously, thinking that she was still young and would not cause any harm, but in fact, she was too naive.

Later, Qiao Panpan used this matter to threaten her, and she scolded the person away on the spot. At the same time, she also realized deeply that she needed a reason to interact with Professor Zhou Yan and others without arousing suspicion. Otherwise, with Qiao Panpan, the venomous snake, around, it would be very dangerous for her to continue interacting with Professor Zhou Yan and others, both for her and for them.

At that time, she saw Sun Changqing doing military boxing in the morning. At that moment, an idea flashed in her mind, and she pulled the three brothers, He Yushun and Liu Qinghe, to learn military boxing together.

Then she would showcase her martial skills to her friends, sparking their envy and admiration. She would then use the excuse of learning martial arts to convince many children in the village to join in, deceiving them that by improving their martial skills, they would have a better chance of joining the army in the future. Who would have known that her words would come true, and several young men in the village actually joined the army successfully because of this reason.

Seeing the benefits, eventually, no one in the village would report them, even if they saw them privately contacting Professor Zhou Yan and others. Even Liu Jianguo could not say anything. After all, almost all the children in the village participated. Liu Jianguo's sons and grandsons also learned a few moves. Isn't the law not punishing everyone? Moreover, with a few more soldiers in the village, he, as the village chief, would also have face. She merely exploited this small advantage to resolve all subsequent dangers.

Because of this, Professor Zhou Yan and other transferred personnel interacted harmoniously with the villagers of Dongsheng Village in a peculiar manner. The villagers respected them more, improving their lives considerably. Compared to a life full of intrigue, these years in Dongsheng Village were quite peaceful. These elderly men and women were very content with their current lives.

With everyone's joint efforts, they not only enjoyed fragrant fish ball soup and super delicious braised dishes but also Ou Yuchen's health-preserving chicken soup. This group of elderly folks were so delighted after eating that they seemed two years younger.

After escorting Professor Zhou Yan and the others back to the cowshed, the young couple returned home affectionately and began to live a sweet life together.

Due to Ou Yuchen's arrival, Fang Yuxi changed her habit of chatting with her friends and focused on accompanying Ou Yuchen at home. No matter what they did, as long as he was by her side, she felt complete happiness just by quietly holding a book.

Ou Yuchen felt the same. They could spend an entire day at home, quietly embracing each other without growing weary. He would occasionally bend down to give her a kiss and felt that time passed too quickly.

Fang Yuxi thought that Ou Yuchen could stay with her for half a month, but who would have thought that their happiness would last for only two days. In the morning, they were still planning their day together, discussing frying pine nuts so they could have a snack when they went to the threshing ground to watch a movie in the evening. However, at noon, Ou Yuchen was called away by people from the army.

When Wang Chuan came to Ou Yuchen and asked him to help capture the three fleeing murderers, Fang Yuxi's face became extremely ugly, and her resentment almost became palpable.

Even though she was injured, they still refused to let her go. They had planned to go to a movie, fry pine nuts, and prepare a bag of pistachios, eagerly anticipating their evening together. Now their plans were ruined. Was it easy for her? Although she knew she should be considerate of Ou Yuchen's profession, Fang Yuxi felt truly saddened in that moment.

"I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I promise that once we catch those three fugitives, I will send the company commander back without a scratch," Wang Chuan said, seeing Fang Yuxi pouting and looking so aggrieved. He almost covered his eyes and wailed, "Oh my god!"
