Chapter 1144 Road Closure?
That evening, several of Hong Xin's sisters-in-law gathered in a private room at a restaurant in Beiping. Hong Xin also saw his twelfth sister-in-law, He Qing.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, did Second Mother really say she would pay for you to take Hong Xin on a trip?" Ye Fei asked curiously while eating.
“That’s called visiting relatives! It’s not tourism! Don’t spread rumors!” Xiao Suizi quickly waved her hand and said.
"Oh, what a pity, I can't go either! I'd love to visit relatives like this!" Ye Fei said.
“If you can get your husband Weiping not to go back to the old house and bother the mothers while you’re away, you can come with me! You’re not short of money, let’s just treat it as a trip! I’m planning to take Hong Xin and He Qing to the Northeast the day after tomorrow to visit Eighth Sister-in-law for a couple of days first!” Xiao Suizi said with a smile.
"It's tough! You know my husband, he's always asking to come home for meals. If I didn't stop him, he'd want to come home for meals every day! I don't know if he thinks my cooking is bad or if he just wants to come back for the fun!" Ye Fei said helplessly.
“If it were me, I’d go home for meals every day too! It’s only a 20-minute walk home for you, so you can even digest your food while you walk home after eating!” Xiao Suizi said with a smile.
"You're right, if it weren't for these kids taking over the old house, he'd love to live at home every day!" Ye Fei said with a wry smile.
"Hahahaha!" Xiao Suizi and the others couldn't help but burst into laughter when they heard Ye Fei's sarcastic remarks.
"He Qing, how's that project you were discussing going?" Xu Jingping asked with a smile.
"It's all settled. It's really just about giving them money. I don't even know if it will make money, since it's my first time making an investment!" He Qing said softly and gently.
"What's the name of the film? How much did you invest?" Hong Xin asked curiously.
"It's called 'Who Says I Don't Care,' it's a family comedy anyway, so it shouldn't lose money!" He Qing said casually.
"Who starred in it?" Ye Fei asked.
“Feng Gong, if it weren’t for the fact that he’s the lead actor, I wouldn’t even watch it! Their director was begging and pleading everywhere to get investment, and I don’t know who he found out from that I had switched to investing, so he came to me!” He Qing was a little unsure of himself.
This was her first time making such an investment, and she was unsure of herself. Moreover, this investment was a full 500,000 yuan; how many clothes would she have to sell to earn that back?
"Oh, don't worry. It doesn't matter whether we make money or not. If we lose money, we'll just learn from it. Who can succeed on their first try?" Xiao Suizi said nonchalantly.
Upon hearing Xiao Suizi's words, Ye Fei rolled her eyes.
However, Ye Fei didn't say anything. She understood her fourth sister-in-law very well. She basically lived in her own world, without poverty or strife, living a life of ease like a princess.
The meal lasted until 8 p.m., and in the end, it was Xu Jingping who said it was time to call it a night, as she was going to Tianjin the next day to manage her family's business. Only then did the sisters-in-law part ways.
That evening, Xiao Suizi took Hong Xin and He Qing back to the old house. Faced with Xiuzhi's lecture, Xiao Suizi stuck out her tongue and led the two of them back to her room.
The next morning, Xiao Suizi, along with Hong Xin and the other person, boarded a plane bound for Lushun.
Meanwhile, at Lushun Airport, Shi Xiaona and Sun Xiaomin were chatting in a car.
"Did the myna bird say when you're going to Jieshi?" Shi Xiaona asked curiously.
"They didn't say. That's just a training ground. From what they said, family members aren't allowed to accompany us. After all, the location of the training ground hasn't been confirmed yet, so no one can say for sure!" Sun Xiaomin said helplessly.
"Shall we go out and have some fun with Fourth Sister-in-law? This time is perfect, Wei Cheng has a training mission and has been transferred to Inner Mongolia. He won't be back for a month!" Shi Xiaona said excitedly.
"Shall we go with the three of them? Their next stop is probably to the southeast to see Fifth Sister-in-law. I don't want Fifth Sister-in-law to join us to see Eldest Sister-in-law later," Sun Xiaomin said with a smile.
"What's the big deal? Let's go together! We don't have anything else to do anyway. After we visit my sister-in-law, we can bring her along and go to the border province to visit my third sister-in-law! I've never been to the desert before!" Shi Xiaona said with a look of longing.
"Are you sure you can do it? Aren't you afraid the biting northwest wind will wrinkle your delicate skin?" Sun Xiaomin looked at Shi Xiaona's fair face and couldn't help but reach out and pinch it.
"Oh dear, Eighth Sister-in-law, you're one to talk! Aren't you the same? Your skin isn't any worse than mine!" Shi Xiaona reached out and slapped Sun Xiaomin's hand away, then turned to pinch Sun Xiaomin's face.
"Alright, stop fooling around. Have you thought about where we're going to take the three of them? We can't just drag them away once we get there, can we?" Sun Xiaomin quickly stopped Shi Xiaona's playful antics and changed the subject.
"Of course we're going to Changbai Mountain when we come to Northeast China! Where else can we go?" Shi Xiaona retorted.
"Just the few of us going to Changbai Mountain? It's so dangerous along the way!" Sun Xiaomin asked with some concern.
The Northeast region is still quite chaotic, with many areas having a large number of unemployed people due to layoffs.
"What are you afraid of? I called Sister Gao Min. She's waiting for us in Baishan. She'll bring a gun! I don't believe anyone would dare to lay a hand on a soldier. Don't forget, you, me, and Fourth Sister-in-law all have military uniforms! Although we're in logistics, nobody recognizes us!" Shi Xiaona said with a smile.
After she and Sun Xiaomin joined the army, they were both assigned to work in the logistics department. Although these were unimportant and leisurely positions, they did have military uniforms and were allowed to carry guns, although it was a bit troublesome to take them out.
As the daughter of Gao Dashan, the commander of the Baishan Garrison, Gao Min was only a military doctor, but she had no problem carrying a gun!
With a group like that, who would dare to kidnap them? Unless they had a death wish.
Sun Xiaomin agreed and stopped arguing. Soon after the plane landed, the two entered the airport terminal and saw Xiao Suizi with Hong Xin and He Qing at the exit.
He Qing and the others had met before, but this was the first time they had met Hong Xin and the others. Looking at the stylish and beautiful Hong Xin, Shi Xiaona and Sun Xiaomin's eyes flashed with admiration. The seventeenth brother still had good taste.
"Xiaomin, Xiaona! Over here!" Xiao Suizi greeted them with a smile.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, is this Seventeen's wife? No wonder she's a Miss Hong Kong, she's so beautiful!" Shi Xiaona walked over, took Hong Xin's hand, and said with a smile.
“That’s right, among all the sisters-in-law in our family, He Qing and Hong Xin are the prettiest!” Sun Xiaomin joked with a smile.
"Oh dear, Eighth Sister-in-law, you can praise Xin Xin, but don't drag me into it! I'm not as pretty as Xin Xin!" He Qing quickly waved her hand.
"Hey, alright, stop being modest. You're all beauties, okay? Let's hurry home. This plane ride is exhausting!" Xiao Suizi rolled her eyes as she watched the group praising each other.
