Chapter 273: Respect the historical trajectory; do not interfere with the fate and karma of others

"A man must establish his career and achieve success. I won't stop you if you want to take on dangerous missions, but before you do anything, think of your wife, think of your daughter."

"And think of me and your sister. I don't want to see the old burying the young."

The words were blunt but true; Elder Lu would neither block nor dissuade him.

If one doesn't fight in wars, where else can military merit be easily earned?

His grandson wanted to get ahead; he shouldn't stand in his way.

But as a grandfather, he hoped his grandson would stay safe.

"I know, Grandfather. I will be careful. Don't forget, the Master said that with my special constitution, I will be around until I'm at least thirty..."

Lu Xiu Bai did not fight battles he wasn't prepared for. In the past, when he was alone, he had fewer concerns and would charge to the front.

Now, he had a wife and a daughter.

Grandfather could be entrusted to his sister and brother-in-law, and his sister could be entrusted to her husband, but his wife and child could not be entrusted to outsiders!

"As long as you know what you're doing."

Elder Lu knew his grandson wouldn't give up on the mission just because of his words, but his grandson had taken them to heart, which meant he would remain vigilant while on duty...

The mission Jiang Ye received was to participate in command and stabilize the rear.

At his rank, individual combat missions were almost never assigned to him, because the work he shouldered was more important than any single task!

Yet, coincidentally, both he and his brother-in-law were heading out on missions this time, and once they left, there was no telling when they would return.

Just as they had opened their hearts to their wives and their feelings were warming up, they had to pull away for a while...

"Ah Ye, go on your mission without worry. Grandfather and the others will take care of the children and me. We will all be fine, waiting for you and Brother to come home."

Although Shen Man was reluctant, as a military wife, she had her own sense of duty.

When the country needed them, one had to prioritize the country.

"Mm."

Jiang Ye said nothing more; he simply pulled his wife into his arms, quietly enjoying the warmth of the embrace.

For a time, everyone except the infants was plunged into the anxiety and unease of impending separation.

With military discipline in place, the officers who had successfully received their missions were strictly on guard, their lips sealed tight.

Except for the few superiors in charge of coordination, no one knew where they were going or what missions they were executing.

Information on the Sea Island was blocked; sometimes, they could only learn about major events by watching the news on television.

As Shen Man accompanied her grandfather to watch TV that evening, some long-dead historical memories suddenly attacked her brain.

Several major events were happening one after another this very year!

She really had become "stupid for three years" after pregnancy; she had forgotten such important things!

However, even knowing roughly when these events would occur, she knew she could not change them.

Her ability to transmigrate into the book was a product of serendipity.

Whether it was Tangyuan or the jade pendant space, she felt that there was a heavenly arrangement in the dark.

If she interfered with the historical trajectory of major events, she had a premonition that she would cause a catastrophe!

She had an instinctive intuition regarding danger.

She didn't want any accidents to happen; she wanted to live a good life in this era with her family, her lover, and her children.

Respect the historical trajectory; do not interfere with the fate and karma of others...

Suppressing the feeling of palpitations, Shen Man felt her heartbeat return to normal once her thoughts lightened.

Sure enough, her intuition was not wrong.

"Meow."

Master, what's wrong?

"Nothing, I was just lost in thought."

Shen Man lowered her eyes, responding to Tangyuan in her heart while picking up a handkerchief to gently wipe the drool from her daughter's lips.

Perhaps because the children's father had been actively involved in their growth since they were born, now that he was gone, the children were a bit distracted, their grape-like eyes darting around as if looking for familiar faces.

"Meow."

Master, are you missing the Big Boss too?

The Big Boss is protected by purple qi; there will be no danger to his life.

And with the Master's brother there, even if there is danger, they will turn bad luck into good fortune.

"Mm, I believe they will come back safely."

This time, Shen Man had prepared double-portion emergency kits for her husband and her brother.

Inside, there was not only Spiritual Liquid but also emergency supplies she had obtained through her position at the staff price!

She didn't know how long they would be gone, but she had considered everything she could...

"Manman, take Xiao Nuomi back to the room to sleep. I'll take Xiao Mantou back to my room tonight."

With his granddaughter's husband away, Elder Lu would certainly shoulder the burden of childcare.

With many old friends helping during the day, the nights would be up to the two of them.

With Old Pei there for his granddaughter-in-law, it wouldn't matter even if she had to work the night shift; it wasn't a big problem.

"Alright, if anything happens, just call me."

Shen Man didn't need to be overly polite with her own grandfather.

The two had been on the Sea Island for nearly a year, and they had figured out each other's temperaments.

The wall clock showed it was already 8:30 PM, nearly 9:00; it was time to sleep.

No matter how reluctant the two little ones were, sensing that someone was missing from the house, they were still carried back to their room by their mother and great-grandfather to have the lights turned off and be coaxed to sleep.

If one had to say why the siblings had such good sleep quality, their father deserved some credit.

As soon as their little heads hit the pillow, they would immediately become drowsy.

With a little gentle coaxing from the adults, they would soon enter dreamland, and soft snoring would begin...

"If you weren't born in the Year of the Dragon, I'd think you were born in the Year of the Pig, with sleep quality this good..."

Shen Man lay down softly and gently covered her daughter with a small quilt.

There was no help for the heat, but if the belly button caught a chill, it wouldn't be a joke.

In this day and age, cold and flu medicine for children was still in clinical trials, or there was simply no production capacity; the field was still a blank slate.

Since she became pregnant, she had been dripping Spiritual Liquid into the food and water she and her sister-in-law consumed.

Plus, the water in their well had been purified, so the family hadn't been sick since coming to the Sea Island.

But there was always a "what if," and she didn't dare to gamble.

At the same time, in the second bedroom, Elder Lu was also marveling at Xiao Mantou falling asleep in a second.

These two children were truly easy to raise.

They knew how to be considerate and didn't give the adults any trouble at all.

"Wuwuwu."

Look, the great-granddaughter through the wall wasn't as easy to raise.

Old Pei's voice coaxing the child drifted through the window: "Lian Lian, don't cry, your mother will be home in a while."

"Are you hungry? Great-grandfather will make you some milk powder."

"Wuwa."

"Right away, right away."

Elder Lu couldn't hear clearly anymore because he had closed the window tight.

Hehe, don't wake his great-grandson.

He had also figured out his great-granddaughter's temperament; she was likely hungry, and once she was full, she would stop crying and fussing and sleep with her bottle.

This behavior was exactly the same as his grandson's when he was a child.

Otherwise, how could they be father and daughter? ===== CHAPTER 274 =====
