Aunt Xia, standing by, hadn't noticed anything unusual about Xia Chuyi and the other two. She laughed heartily and warmly said to Huo Shiqian, "That's more like it, the military and civilians are one family, what's there to be polite about? Besides, you're our family's saviors!"
Incredibly, she seamlessly redirected Huo Shiqian's words back at him.
Huo Shiqian chuckled but said nothing more.
Xiao Wang had already taken the local produce from the enthusiastic Aunt Xia and placed it in the car, continuously repeating, "Thank you, fellow villager! Thank you, fellow villager!"
Seeing this, Xia Chuyi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness Aunt Xia didn't think too much... This Huo Shiqian is really unreliable!
She couldn't help complaining inwardly, but dared not show it on her face.
She smiled sweetly and said, "Alright, Aunt Xia, everything's in the car now, and the liberation army comrades still have a mission, you shouldn't send us off any further."
