Foster Parents in the 1960s

At the age of twenty-eight, Song Shuyao received her ex-boyfriend's inheritance from the army. After getting heavily drunk, she woke up to find herself transformed into 18-year-old Jiang Shuyao...

Chapter 30: What to do when you are well fed and warm

"Isn't this hard to find? Why would you two bring so much when you go home? You're not going to need food, are you?" Jiang's mother said this, but inwardly she was satisfied. These things alone proved Hao Yuanchao valued her daughter. Who else in the entire residential complex could offer such a generous gift? She'd go out and chat later. Wouldn't those aunties be envious of her?

However, although she was happy about the thought, Jiang's mother was also worried that the young couple was young and ignorant and would spend money lavishly. So after asking Jiang Shuyao about how they were getting along these days, she reminded her to manage the household well. After all, she had to raise her eldest brother's children, and she would also have children in the future.

Thinking of this, Jiang's mother felt a little sad again. It would have been great if Jiang Shuyao didn't have these four children, or if she didn't marry Hao Yuanchao. Unfortunately, the matter was done. Jiang Shuyao liked him, so she could only think more positively, move forward, and look at the bright side.

Jiang Shuyao knew what Jiang's mother was thinking. In fact, sometimes she couldn't help but wonder if her original self was still alive. Faced with this situation, would she choose to continue marrying Hao Yuanchao or break off the engagement? Unfortunately, this assumption was not valid. She had no idea where her original self had gone, let alone returning her identity to her original self. Everything was arranged by fate. Jiang Shuyao had also traveled to this era in a daze. In fact, she couldn't say that she had done anything wrong to her original self, so there was no need for her to suppress her feelings. It was unnecessary and meaningless to think about what her original self would do if she were still here, and how to do what her original self meant.

Of course, Jiang Shuyao still felt sorry for the Jiang family, especially her loving father and mother. She chose to stay away from them out of fear of being exposed, which made them miss her. But there was no other way. The risk was too great, and knowing their biological daughter was no longer in this world would probably make them even more sad. Parental bonds in this world can never be forced. In a few years, when they have accepted her change in personality and considered it reasonable, she would return to see them, and she would give them the filial piety they deserved. This was the best solution she could think of so far.

After having a lively lunch together and chatting for a while, the couple prepared to go back because Hao Yuanchao had classes in the afternoon.

Jiang's mother was a little reluctant and wanted to ask Jiang Shuyao to stay, but seeing Hao Yuanchao's serious face but eager eyes looking at Jiang Shuyao, she felt happy and finally let Jiang Shuyao go back with her.

"Come over when you are free. We have reserved space for you at home." Jiang's mother did not move from the small room, thinking that Jiang Shuyao would have a place to sleep when she came back to stay when she was free.

This thought was naturally profound. Jiang Shuyao had never experienced such maternal love in her previous life. Her nose felt inexplicably sour. If it was a fetal puncture, it would not be so difficult to do now.

But I have an even stronger desire to be filial to Mr. and Mrs. Jiang. Next time I come here, I'll find a reason to take out the fine wines hidden in the space wine cellar. Drinking some every day is good for your health.

However, coming again next time will also mean that we will be separated soon, because Hao Yuanchao's further studies are about to end.

The training will end in July, which is just over half a month away from the wedding. Jiang's father and mother were disappointed when they knew that Hao Yuanchao could not stay here, but they were more happy for him and Jiang Shuyao, because this was a happy event of promotion. He would be the division commander of the army, which was a very high position. He could remain calm when he was the regimental commander, because he had been fighting in the wars in his early years and was promoted quickly with military merits. There were many people who were promoted to the position of regimental commander, and it was not uncommon for someone of Hao Yuanchao's age.

But there are really not many division commanders, and there are only a few in the whole country. The Jiang family couldn't imagine that Hao Yuanchao could be promoted to this position, because the speed was too fast. It's like you know that this tree has great potential and can grow into a towering tree, but it just takes more time. As a result, when you sleep, the small tree suddenly becomes a big tree. This is really like a surprise from heaven.

"This is also due to the military merits accumulated before, and after being promoted to this position, there will probably be no major changes in the next ten years." In fact, it is also a blessing for the new military region. Originally, China implemented socialist policies and had the support of Country D, but in the past two years, Country D's attitude has become more and more weird, almost tearing its face apart, resulting in China's foreign threats becoming more serious. China has many border countries, and in order to be on the safe side, the country has adjusted the military regions, either building new ones or merging them. This move has also led to changes in positions, and Hao Yuanchao has indeed accumulated a lot of military merits over the years. He has performed well in the military academy and achieved good results in the last military exercise. The leaders he used to follow are also optimistic about him, so he got this promotion.

But just like what he said, this promotion probably won't lead to any major changes in the next ten years or so. Whether I can make further progress or be transferred to a better place in the future depends on both my ability and experience.

"This is great, this is great!" Jiang's father and the others were very happy. "The country values ​​you. You must work hard and not let the country down."

For men, even if they don't serve in the military, they still respect soldiers. The fact that Hao Yuanchao can be a division commander proves that he is indeed a powerful soldier. Jiang's father feels proud to have such a son-in-law!

Because of Jiang's father's support, although Jiang's mother was reluctant to let her daughter go away, she still did not say anything to blame Hao Yuanchao for not doing what was agreed before the marriage. Moreover, she still understood that this was a military order and military orders should not be violated. She could only celebrate happily and told her to send letters frequently, send telegrams or make phone calls if there were urgent matters, and come home if she had the chance.

At this point, she could only be thankful that there was no one at her son-in-law's house. Then he would have more opportunities to come back to her place. Besides, promotion was a good thing. The more capable the son-in-law was, the better her daughter's life would be. It didn't seem to matter if he lived farther away, right?

However, on the day of departure, she couldn't help but tear up when she was sent to the train station. Jiang Shuyao saw her in the carriage, and her heart ached. She suddenly rushed down and hugged Jiang's father and mother, "Mom and Dad, you have to take good care of yourselves when I'm not home. I'll come back when I have time."

Jiang's mother's tears immediately fell, and even Jiang's father's eyes were red. "Okay, remember to live a good life with your son-in-law. Be good to him."

The hearts of all parents in the world are no more than this.

Then I jumped out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. In the middle of summer, taking a cold shower in the middle of the night was really exciting!
