At three o'clock in the afternoon, when Ji Luo came out of class, Ren Rongyan was already waiting outside the classroom, holding a mung bean popsicle in his hand, which he had just bought for her on the way.

"Brother Yan, have you visited Dongming? How is the situation?"

"I've seen someone. I'm out of danger."

Ren Rongyan helped her carry her schoolbag and whispered to her, "Luoluo, I want to give him medicine."

"can."

Ji Luo also had this plan and wanted to go back and tell him, "He can't use it now. He has to wait until his body recovers a little bit before using it. It will take at least a month."

"Yes, I know. He is too badly injured now, and the medicine is too strong to withstand it." Ren Rongyan saw that his good brother was so badly injured, and he also remembered the scene when he was paralyzed in bed before. He sighed and said, "Even if Dongming recovers this time, he can only retire."

"It's fine to retire."

Ji Luo understood the mission on their shoulders, but as a military wife, she could understand the feelings of military wives even better. "Last night, when it was unknown whether he was alive or dead, Sister He Ye cried in despair. Later, when she learned that he was alive and well, she came back to life."

Military wives never express their concerns in front of the men. In fact, every time the men go out on a mission, they are worried at home and can't sleep well. Every time they come back safely, they can quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

They often talk about these things in private. In fact, deep down they also hope that the men will retire. They are all very afraid of losing the pillars of the family. But as long as they are in the army, they have to bravely become their strong backing and silently support them.

She didn't say what the military wives were thinking, but Ren Rongyan could guess what they were thinking. He put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Luoluo, I will protect myself."

"Well, you must be safe."

In fact, Ji Luo did not expect him to be successful in his career, but only hoped that he would be safe and healthy. He also did not expect him to be rich, but only hoped that his family would be happy and harmonious.

When the couple came back, Xu Guanglei and Lin Wei were still there. Xu Baobao had fallen asleep again and was woken up by Xu Guanglei to play with her.

"Xu Baobao."

Ji Luo ran over, picked up the soft bun, and smacked it affectionately, "The little bun with a milky flavor is so soft and sticky. I really want to take a bite."

"Hurry up and arrange for a second child, and go and bite your own." Xu Guanglei snatched his son back.

Lin Wei chuckled, "Tuantuan is one and a half years old. He is very well-behaved and not clingy. You can plan for a second child."

"Ren Yunqian, that bad boy, was let loose as soon as he went to Guangzhou. When he first went there, he would occasionally nag me, but now he's so wild that he doesn't even remember me as his mother. The night before yesterday, I called him at 8:30, and my mother-in-law said he hadn't come back yet. He was taken out to play by his uncle and younger uncle. I don't know where they went. He often comes back to sleep after 9 o'clock."

Ren Rongyan sent her schoolbag back to the house, moved a stool over to her, and said, "I just called him. He had just woken up from a nap. He said that he was learning slingshot and swimming with his elder brother recently. I asked him if he was coming to Kyoto, and he said no."

"Haha, it seems that Guangzhou is still more fun." Ji Luo laughed helplessly.

"He has his uncle and aunt over there to play with him. Grandpa probably also takes time to take him to play in the army. There are also many children in the military family compound, so it must be more fun than here."

Zeng Minfang knew it very well. When they were living in the military family compound in Shacheng, Kangzi also did not come home all day and had to be called many times for dinner every day. Now that he has come here, he only knows the children of the neighbors on both sides. He is not as playful as before and comes home early after school.

Today we had a rare leisurely and comfortable afternoon of chatting. When Ruan Minghui came back from his part-time job, Ji Luo arranged: "Let's go out for dinner tonight. I'll take you to eat spicy food."

"Aunt Ji Luo, I want to eat spicy beef." Peng Kang jumped up to order food.

"arrange."

Ji Luo waved his hand and assigned him a task: "I'll leave the ordering tonight to you."

"No, I don't know how to order." Peng Kang refused the task.

"You're great, little brat. Your food is better than mine. You can even have spicy beef." Peng Jinsong gave him two chestnuts.

"Last time when the bookstore opened, my mother was too busy to buy me food, so Aunt Ji Luo took me out for a big meal. We ordered three delicious dishes, and I love spicy beef the most."

Kangzi confessed honestly, and said with great joy: "Dad, the spicy beef is super delicious. It is the best dish I have ever eaten. It is so spicy and delicious that I almost swallowed my tongue."

"Beef is so expensive, let alone spicy, I think it tastes good even when mixed with wood ash." Peng Jinsong has only eaten beef twice.

"Ha ha..."

A group of people laughed happily. Ji Luo went back to the room to get his bag and said with a smile: "Let's go."

The shop they went to was not a big hotel, but could be considered a family kitchen and private restaurant in later generations. The landlord and his wife were both from the south, and they cooked their own food. The shop was not big, but the business was quite good. When they arrived, there were already many people ordering food and waiting, and the tables, chairs and benches were all placed on the small empty square at the door.

"Ji Luo, how did you find such a place?" Xu Guanglei asked as he sat down.

"My classmate introduced it to me."

Ji Luogang ordered seven or eight dishes and bought each of the men a bottle of beer to cool off. He pointed to the stone factory family quarters across the street and said, "My classmate lives here. He recommended me here."

"Why didn't your classmates go to set up stalls today?" Lin Wei asked.

"I have been reviewing my lessons for the past half month and have not set up a stall. I will arrange it after the exams are over. The class monitor has already counted the number of people. More than half of them will not go home for the summer vacation and will stay in Kyoto to set up stalls."

Ji Luo talked about this and discussed with the three bookstore owners, "Your bookstores should also make arrangements as soon as possible. Order more story novels and literary books from the publishing house, as well as comic books and postcards. Take advantage of the summer vacation to hold a few more special sessions, directly replicating the model of my previous woolen special session, and use this summer vacation to make Hanlin Wenhua Bookstore famous."

“That’s what we were thinking.”

Inspired by Ji Luo's idea, Ruan Minghui had already discussed this matter with Lin Wei and Zeng Minfang, and the bookstore was already making preparations.

They had a plan, so Ji Luo didn't say much and told the three men about Yuan Nanlin's investment.

Xu Guanglei knew Yuan Nanlin, but they didn't interact much. However, he knew a little about the Yuan family, so he just said, "He is reliable. Yuan Nanlin is reliable. The Yuan family will provide him with a bottom-line support, so there is no need to worry about investing in the shares."

After that, he asked again: "How much is our total investment?"

Ji Luo made a gesture.

"14?" Xu Guanglei asked silently.

"Add a zero." Lin Wei whispered in his ear.

Xu Guanglei: "...Boss Ji, you are so generous."
