570: She had already made arrangements for her two younger brothers.

Xiao Niannian noticed her older brother and Lu Jing staring at her, so she tilted her head and looked back at them.

“Why are you two always staring at me like that?”

Hearing Niannian's question, Lu Jing replied.

“Looking at my excellent fiancée.”

Xiao Niannian smiled.

Gu Yuan also smiled when he heard Lu Jing's words.

“Looking at my excellent younger sister.”

The more time he spent with his sister, the more Gu Yuan felt that he hadn't known her well enough before. He had thought his sister was extremely excellent previously, but now, he felt he lagged far behind her.

He was truly proud to have a sister like this; she was simply too outstanding.

Reflecting on the reports he had just seen, he felt he had learned many things.

“In that case, how are you two planning to reward the excellent me?”

“Tomorrow is the weekend. Let's go to the Back Mountain and catch some game. Lao Lu and I will cook you a feast.”

Doting on his sister was not something he could let Lu Jing do alone.

“Sounds great.”

It had been a month since she returned. The last time she had a break, her Godmother was assassinated, and she hadn't had a vacation since then.

Xiao Niannian thought of the animals in the Back Mountain. There were now more rabbits there, and the Wild Chicken and hares had also increased significantly.

She had also released many of the Wild Chicken and hares from her spatial dimension into the Back Mountain.

These animals bred very quickly, and the grass in the Back Mountain grew exceptionally well. Xiao Niannian had also secretly planted some trees and scattered some Sweet Potato, Potato, and Paddy Rice seeds from her spatial dimension.

Shen Yan got up early today. After seeing Sister Xiao's prowess with a slingshot while hunting, he had secretly learned it too. Now, he could still hit Wild Chicken and hares with a slingshot.

Xiao Niannian was resting today. After hunting, she planned to go see her uncle and Aunt, as well as her two younger brothers.

“This year, game is running rampant in the mountains. Not just here, but the game near the Division Headquarters Family Courtyard has also increased significantly. They organize some Soldiers to go hunting in the Back Mountain once a month, and the harvest is huge...”

Although Instructor Qin managed the daily affairs of the team, he was still well-informed about outside news.

Xiao Niannian listened to these words but did not reply. How could she not know about these things?

She did this because she wanted to improve the lives of the Soldiers.

Soon, they arrived at the Back Mountain. Shen Yan heard the cry of a Wild Chicken and immediately ran towards it.

Xiao Niannian watched Shen Yan's movements and nodded in satisfaction. This kid's physical fitness had improved several times over the past two years, and his reaction time was much faster than before.

He was a promising candidate for a Special Forces Soldier, but to become an elite Team Member, he still had some way to go and needed continuous training.

If he could enter the Devil's Week Extreme Training, she believed Shen Yan's abilities could improve further.

As for the Hunter Training Camp, Xiao Niannian felt Shen Yan was currently unqualified to enter, because the pressure there was immense. If things went poorly, it could potentially ruin Shen Yan... She recalled seeing Team Members who trained with her back then, some of whom suffered emotional breakdowns and nearly committed suicide.

She herself had gritted her teeth and persevered through it back then.

The chances of death were not just talk; people genuinely died there.

“Sister Xiao, look.”

Shen Yan ran over, holding a Wild Chicken, and happily showed it to Xiao Niannian.

“Not bad.”

He remembered the first time he went hunting with Sister Xiao and the others; he saw a rabbit, but it got away.

Now, catching game was much easier than before.

Xiao Niannian heard the movement of a rabbit and walked toward the distance.

The Sleeve Arrow she used struck the rabbit directly. Seeing the rabbit fall to the ground, Xiao Niannian picked it up by the ears and pulled out the arrow.

Lu Jing, Instructor Qin, and Military Doctor Shen also quickly caught some game.

Two hours passed, and they had caught over thirty animals. Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing caught the most.

“There are truly too many rabbits and Wild Chicken in this Back Mountain. I want to come hunting again next time we rest,” Shen Yan said happily.

Lu Jing glanced at Shen Yan, then looked toward Niannian.

The five of them got into the car and headed to the Division Headquarters Family Courtyard.

Xiao Niannian looked at Lu Jing driving single-handedly and blinked.

After the kiss in the house last time, she had been avoiding Lu Jing somewhat. She had also considered the matter of getting married sooner and already had a plan in mind.

“Uncle, Aunt.”

Regiment Commander Wang opened the door and was overjoyed to see Niannian and Lu Jing.

“How do you have time to visit?”

“This is wonderful.”

Cheng Yu looked at her Niece, smiling from ear to ear.

“I was just saying I wanted to go with Old Wang to the training base to see you...”

Everyone greeted Regiment Commander Wang and his wife.

“Sister.”

The two younger brothers rushed out. They had grown taller this year and were now over 1.7 meters.

They were also a bit heavier than before.

When they saw Xiao Niannian, the brothers couldn't have been happier.

They had hoped to see their sister during the summer and winter holidays, but she was either on a mission or back in her hometown.

The number of times they had met this year could be counted on one hand.

“How have you two been lately?”

Xiao Niannian asked with concern.

“We're very obedient, and our grades are excellent.”

Xiao Niannian looked toward Aunt.

Cheng Yu nodded, smiling.

“Those two are very obedient now. Their grades are in the top five at school, and they run three kilometers every morning...”

Normally, Cheng Yu didn't praise her sons much, but their performance over the past year or two had truly been excellent.

Now that they were in high school, if their grades remained stable, they would definitely do even better.

It was a pity that the College Entrance Exam had not yet been reinstated; otherwise, they would certainly be able to get into good universities.

However, her husband said he would find a way to recommend them to study at the Military Academy.

Cheng Yu poured them Sweet Water and brought out the household candy, peanuts, and sunflower seeds.

“Uncle, Aunt, please don't fuss over us. We caught some game this morning in the Back Mountain behind the training base. They will cook a feast later.”

Xiao Niannian said with a smile.

Hearing this, Regiment Commander Wang and Cheng Yu looked at Lu Jing and Instructor Qin.

They saw a large sack behind them.

“It's all here.”

With such a large sack, how much game had they caught?

Regiment Commander Wang opened the sack and was shocked. There must have been more than ten animals inside.

Over the past two or three years, his two sons had learned some trapping and hunting techniques from Niannian, and they occasionally managed to catch one or two animals a month.

Their family's meals were much better than before.

Niannian would occasionally bring over things like mushrooms and wood ear fungus, and Grandma Gu and the others from the capital also sent things.

Although they still didn't know the background of Niannian's family, they guessed they were quite influential. Regardless, they never thought about seeking out Niannian's biological parents' family to do anything.

“So much game, this won't do, it's too much.”

“Uncle, please don't refuse. They specifically had people process the game before bringing it over. If you rub some salt on it later, it can be stored for a few days. Let's eat a few today.”

Xiao Niannian didn't just come this time to see her uncle and Aunt; she already had plans for these two younger brothers.
