Jiang Mengxue dreamed that she would return to several decades ago. She decisively sold all her property and filled the warehouse space of the bracelet left by her grandmother.
When Gu Qingbe...
When I got home, I told Gu Zhenjiang and Li Cuiying what was in the letter.
They agreed to go to Liu's house again after Gu Zhenhai sent his identity certificate back.
Taking advantage of the good weather that day, Jiang Mengxue took out all the thick quilts and cotton-padded clothes in the house to dry in the sun.
When the time comes, send it to the army to avoid the inconvenience of carrying it on the train.
Li Cuiying came back from outside, holding a calligraphy work in her arms and wearing a small hat on her head. The sun was very bright outside.
"Huaibei is back. He said Liuliu is getting married in a few days and wants us to go to the wedding."
Gu Liuliu is getting married?
But it’s almost time. I’ve been dating Wang Hua for more than a year. If we don’t get married, An Xin will get anxious.
"I heard his name is Xu Yuanbin, and he's a comrade from Huaiju's unit. I guess Huaiju introduced him to me."
"Yeah, I've been dating Wang Hua for quite some time. Getting married is normal..."
The voice behind was getting smaller and smaller. Wasn't it Wang Hua?
A colleague from Gu Huaijue's workplace? This is a bit sudden.
"Second Mother, did Liu Liu break up with that Wang Hua? Why are they suddenly getting married again?"
Li Cuiying just came back from Gu Zhenxing's home. She probably came back after listening to some gossip.
Sure enough, Li Cuiying went into the house and poured a glass of water. She gossiped, "That's right. I don't know how the mother and daughter came to terms with each other. Liu Liu broke up with Wang Hua, and then her aunt introduced her to her current partner."
Li Cuiying was also surprised that Gu Liuliu was willing to obey, but this was also a good thing. It was better than regretting marrying the wrong person in the future. People introduced by family members were always more reliable.
"Did you say when you're getting married? Will we all go then?"
Li Cuiying went to the wall, looked at the calendar, and calculated the days.
"After a week, there's no rush. Aren't you planning to join the army in a few days? It's just the right time to attend Liu Liu's wedding before leaving."
As for Liu Tianqi's family affairs, just leave them to Gu Zhenjiang. The specific address is on the letter, so there is no need to worry about not being able to find it.
When it’s time to set off, you realize how much there is in life.
Towel, toothpaste, toothbrush, cup, lunch box, a bed sheet and a thin blanket for the sleeper berth on the train.
Mobao has even more things, not to mention the milk powder and bottles, what really worries people is the diapers.
Jiang Mengxue couldn't wash her diapers on the train, could she? But using diapers would be too obvious, so she could only wait and see.
You also need to prepare several sets of clothes, as children like to play and easily get their clothes dirty.
Jiang Mengxue wanted to keep her luggage as minimal as possible so that if something was missing later, it would be easier to deal with.
As for the other things, Gu Zhenjiang had already taken them to the commune post office by ox cart and sent them to the army.
There are so many things and the shipping costs are not something that ordinary people can afford.
The day before Gu Liuliu's wedding, the family took a bus into the city.
Gu Zhenjiang planned to let Jiang Mengxue take the bicycle away as well. It would be nice to have one at home, and it might be more needed in the staff quarters.
Jiang Mengxue also thought it was okay. For someone like her who would rather not walk than walk, riding a bike was relatively much easier.
Besides, I already have several bicycles at home, and I really don’t want to buy more later, even if I have tickets.
The family returned home first, but no one had lived there for a long time and there was dust everywhere.
But since I'm only staying for two days, there's no need to be so particular.
Not long after they returned, they heard noises from next door.
Old Mrs. Tian came over with the help of a crutch and on tiptoe.
In the past, the two families were just neighbors, but now because of the relationship between Jiang Mengxue and her sister, the two families are considered relatives.
In this day and age, relatives no matter how far they are from each other are still relatives, not to mention those who are not very distantly related.
"Cuiying, are you guys back? Oh, this is her aunt's child, right? He's so handsome, he must be almost a year old."
Jiang Mengxue didn't know when Mrs. Tian started to treat her Chen Hu as her aunt, but it didn't matter.
"Almost. He's ten months old now. He can just walk with support."
What's more, Mo Bao has been drinking spiritual spring water since he was born, and all the food he eats after eating complementary foods is produced in the space.
Even the coarse grains we eat on a daily basis are produced in space.
Therefore, Mobao has been in better health than other children since he was young and has never been sick.
Li Cuiying hadn't taken care of a child for a long time, and she just thought Jiang Mengxue was a doctor who could take care of children, so she didn't think much about it and just thought it was normal.
Seeing the large and small bags in their yard, Old Mrs. Tian thought they had moved back.
"If you need anything after you move back, tell me and I'll use what we have at home first."
Li Cuiying wiped the kang clean with water and said, "I'll just stay for a few nights, and then I'll go back to my hometown in a few years.
My nephew's daughter is getting married tomorrow, and Xiaoxue will be joining the army in a couple of days. We'll go back after she leaves by train."
Old Mrs. Tian had indeed not heard of this matter. If Tian Xinghe had time, he would come over once every two weeks. If he didn't have time, he might not come over even once a month, so she didn't know that Jiang Mengxue was joining the army.
But if we talk about familiarity, she is of course more familiar with Li Cuiying.
Seeing Jiang Mengxue put her things in the room, Old Lady Tian asked quietly, "Your niece-in-law is going to join the army, so what are you two going to do? Are you going to live in the countryside from now on? It would have been better for you not to go back in the first place. It's more comfortable to live in the city than in the countryside."
She didn't mean to make Li Cuiying feel dissatisfied. She just thought that Jiang Mengxue needed Li Cuiying and her husband to take care of the child before, but now that the child has grown up, she doesn't need help anymore. She will take the child with her and join the army, and won't care about Li Cuiying and her husband anymore.
But Li Cuiying knew in her heart that Jiang Mengxue's joining the army had been agreed with them a long time ago, and they also supported it.
The couple couldn't always live apart, and the child couldn't always be away from his father, so they fully agreed to go with the army.
It’s just that they really have something to do at home, and they don’t want to disturb the intimacy of their family of three now. It’s better to wait until before the New Year and celebrate the New Year there.
Liu Cuiying didn't want to be misunderstood, so she could only explain that they were not going for the time being.
I don’t know whether Mrs. Tian believed it or not, and she didn’t say anything else.
Everything necessary for the wedding was ready. In addition to a four-piece suit, Jiang Mengxue also added twenty yuan, which was also given by Gu Huaian and his wife when they got married.
They only knew that the groom was introduced by Gu Huaijue and also worked in the Housing Authority, but none of them had ever met him.
But when Jiang Mengxue saw the groom on the day of the wedding, she realized that she seemed to know him. She had seen him several times when she went to the Housing Authority, but she didn't have a deep impression of him.
Xu Yuanbin and a group of young people finally passed five levels and six obstacles and entered the gate.
The first thing I saw was Jiang Mengxue standing at the door of the main room holding a child.
