Jiang Yunshu had just kicked out her fiancé who was cheating on her when her long-deceased grandparents appeared in her dream. Before leaving, they even gave her a mustard seed space obtained from...
"When has auntie ever lied to you? Our Mingli and Yaoyao are both sweet little children."
"Xiangxiang... Lili Xiangxiang... I want to play with Lili..."
Mother Gu carried the little girl to find little Laoliu. Little Laoliu, who had just fallen asleep, suddenly woke up. After waking up, he pouted and stopped crying just as he was about to.
At this age when he can't even control his urine, Xiao Laoliu can already control his tears.
Mother Gu was amazed watching from the side, but she did not forget to put the little girl in her arms down and play with little Laoliu.
Little Dumpling came close to Little Six's face, sniffed it, and said in surprise: "Lili smells good... not smelly at all..."
At this moment, Xiao Laoliu suddenly grabbed the hand that Xiaotuanzi extended to him and refused to let go.
Shen Yunshu turned her head and saw such a harmonious and warm scene. She wanted to take out her mobile phone from the space and take a picture of this loving scene.
Later, Xiao Laoliu became a top physicist in China. In his old age, he wrote in his memoirs:
"My relationship with Comrade Jiang Shuyao was sealed when I was just born. Back then, Comrade Jiang Shuyao, still a soft and sticky dumpling, would often visit my home. During the famine, she would bring me braised pork and spit out the White Rabbit candy in her mouth and bring it to my lips...
At that time, my mother, Comrade Shen Yunshu, stopped us, saying that I was still young. From then on, Comrade Jiang Shuyao no longer fed me secretly. She would lie down next to my ear and mumble back and forth. As for what she mumbled, I was still a baby at that time and had no idea what she was saying.
I have always been grateful to my father and mother. If they had not been on good terms with the Jiang family, I would not have met Comrade Jiang Shuyao at a very young age.
Comrade Jiang Shuyao is a very nice person, but she is still as nagging as when I was a child. Whenever I do something to make her angry, she will nag me all the time. My ears are so tired of hearing it that I feel callused. But I am very happy because it shows that Comrade Jiang Shuyao cares about me and has me in her heart.
Comrade Jiang Shuyao loves to eat braised pork, just like when she was a child. In order to please her, on the day I realized my feelings for her, I asked for leave from my leader and took a train to Hai City to learn how to make braised pork from my uncle Wan, a descendant of an imperial chef.
I stayed in Uncle Wan's kitchen for two whole days. My nitpicking almost drove him crazy before I finally learned how to make his signature braised pork. My braised pork is far better than Uncle Wan's in both taste and appearance.
I took the train back to Beijing holding the freshly made braised pork. At that time, Comrade Jiang Shuyao was a teacher at Huaqing University. I was worried that the braised pork in the lunch box would get cold on the way there, thus affecting the taste, so I carefully put it in my arms.
I arrived at Huaqing University smoothly and met Comrade Jiang Shuyao as I wished. Comrade Jiang Shuyao was happy about my arrival and invited me to the cafeteria for a meal. In the huge and crowded cafeteria, I took out the box of braised pork from my arms in front of her.
Although I carefully protected it along the way, it still got cold. The cold braised pork tasted a bit greasy, but Comrade Jiang Shuyao didn't dislike it at all and even asked me where I bought it.
I said I did it myself. To this day, I still remember Comrade Jiang Shuyao's bright eyes looking at me. It was the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen, even more beautiful than the aurora in Northern Europe.
When I was about to express my love to everyone, a student suddenly came and called Comrade Jiang Shuyao away, and my first confession ended in vain.
Later, I called my father, who was a leader, for help. He told me seriously that you have to be thick-skinned to pursue a female comrade, because that was how he got my mother.
I was prepared for a protracted battle and mustered up the courage to confess to Comrade Jiang Shuyao. Just when I was feeling uneasy, I heard Comrade Jiang Shuyao say, "I agree."
At that moment, I felt like the whole world was congratulating me. Comrade Jiang Shuyao and I went from childhood sweethearts to a close and inseparable couple. Both families were happy for us, and I was the first one among my brothers to get married.
Jiang Shuyao felt sleepy after playing with Xiao Laoliu for a while. When Shen Yunshu and the others finished talking, Jiang Shuyao had already fallen asleep on the edge of the bed.
Liu Meiling wanted to take her home to sleep, but Shen Yunshu stopped her: "Let her sleep here. When she wakes up, I'll have someone send her back."
Liu Meiling felt a little embarrassed: "This is too much trouble for you, I'd better take her home to sleep."
Shen Yunshu said: "It's not a problem at all. Gu Jiuyan told me everything when he came back from his last mission. It was Brother Jiang who led the enemy away, so he got a chance to survive.
I've always wanted to thank you in person, but you've seen the situation at home now. When I have time, I'll invite you and your family to dinner."
Liu Meiling quickly waved her hands and said:
"Sister, what are you talking about? Captain Gu has also helped us a lot. The three children didn't have enough food, and it was he who helped us get milk powder and malted milk. He even gave half of the money from selling the wild boar to Lao Jiang."
"This is what should be done."
Shen Yunshu stepped forward and held her hand. The two smiled at each other and then stopped talking nonsense.
Liu Meiling finally left Xiaotuanzi at Gu's house. After returning home, she told Jiang Chen, who was lying in bed, that Grandpa Gu had sprained his waist.
After hearing this, Jiang Chen quickly got out of bed:
"At his age, a sprained waist is no small matter. Is the old man back now? What's the situation at the Gu family?"
Liu Meiling replied: "He hasn't come back yet. If you have nothing to do now, go to Gu's house and help break down the wall. This will save Captain Gu from being busy when he comes back."
"Okay, I'll go now. Remember to make my meal. I'll probably be back late."
"Okay." Liu Meiling agreed immediately.
When Jiang Chen arrived at Gu's house, he picked up a hammer and started smashing the wall without saying a word. Shen Yunshu and the others couldn't stop him.
Finally, with Jiang Chen's persistent efforts, he knocked down the remaining half of the wall.
He went outside to find a cart and planned to push the solid waste to the landfill.
On the way back from borrowing the car, Jiang Chen met Zhang Desheng, who also came over to help.
Both of them were hardworking and went back and forth several times before they finally cleared the solid waste in the yard.
Without the barrier of the wall, the courtyard instantly became brighter.
Mother Gu filled a basin of water for the two of them and took out the soap at home for them to use.
After they had tidied themselves up, they were ready to leave. Grandma Gu asked them to stay for dinner, but they refused.
Shen Yunshu took out four apples from the house and stuffed them into their hands:
"Take these apples back and give them to your family. I'll ask Gu Jiuyan to invite you home for a drink some other day."
