In the Room of the Three Brothers

After a bout of entanglement between Fu Sui and Fu Yu, they finally learned from Fu Yu about what had happened in their hometown.

Compared to Fu Sui's anger, Fu Yu's expression was quite calm. He thought that this didn't quite seem like something the Mu family would do.

Fu Yu, lying on his bed with his legs crossed, spoke softly to Fu Sui, "Keep your voice down; don't let Xiao Xiao hear."

"Xiao Xiao is capable and bold; I don't know what she's thinking right now."

Fu Sui ceased her relentless complaining and lay quietly on her bed.

...

Fu Xiao, after a short time in her room, was called out by Fu Sui. They went to a nearby market and bought a lot of delicious food.

When they got home, Tan Lingling had already returned from work. After chatting briefly with them, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

The hot weather had diminished their appetite, and they could only eat a little. Tan Lingling made a simple meal of fried noodles with meat sauce using leftover pork from the night before, paired with finely shredded cucumber from their garden. The cold noodles were refreshing.

After dinner, they gathered in the living room to chat about their hometown.

Most of the conversation revolved around questions from Fu Weihao, who asked about the recent occurrences on the mountains, the harvest, and various people in the village.

The topic that came up most was about Grandpa Fu.

Fu Yu and Fu Xiao, knowing that he missed his hometown and was worried about Grandpa Fu, spoke only of positive things.

Fu Weihao listened attentively, his eyes reddening when they mentioned that Grandpa Fu was still able to do military exercises without breaking a sweat.

After chatting for over an hour, the night had fully fallen, and Tan Lingling suggested everyone return to their rooms.

In the master bedroom, Tan Lingling comforted Fu Weihao gently, "Brother Weihao, I know you miss home. Let's try to find a way to visit this year. If you can't go, I can take the children and represent you in paying respects."

Fu Weihao nodded, still looking down, his mind clearly troubled.

Soon, the entire courtyard fell silent, with only the sounds of cicadas and birds.

Fu Xiao sensed that everyone had gone to sleep. She changed into a black long-sleeve shirt and pants, quietly opened her room door, and nimbly climbed over the wall.

She didn't take an electric scooter as there were many patrols around the military district. Instead, she put on roller skates and headed towards the Command Headquarters she had visited earlier.

On the way, she encountered a patrol team and quickly slipped into hiding. Once they passed, she continued on her way.

Arriving near the Command Headquarters, she didn't enter but found a hidden spot close by. She used her spiritual sense to confirm that there was no one around and then entered the space.

After changing out of her roller skates, she took an ice cream from the fridge and waited leisurely.

After about half an hour, activity finally began. Several military vehicles came out of the Command Headquarters. She sensed with her spiritual power that these were not the people she was looking for, so she remained hidden in the shadows.
