Chapter 31 Reunion

The helicopter landed in an open area near the village. As soon as it stopped, Gu Xinyan jumped off the helicopter and ran into the village.

The deafening roar of the plane instantly brought the once-quiet village to life, but the villagers only watched from a distance, not daring to approach.

After all, the plane was clearly a military aircraft, and the people on board were all wearing military uniforms, so they didn't dare to approach it casually, for fear of causing trouble for the country.

But as Gu Xinyan ran closer, the villagers recognized her and, while surprised, couldn't help but ask her questions.

"Isn't that Granny Gu's eldest daughter? She looks like her!"

"Yes, yes, it's that girl. Why is she coming back with all these people? Did something happen to her?"

"Judging from their expressions, they don't seem to have encountered any trouble. Let's go check on Grandma Gu. If anything has happened, we can lend a hand!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the people who had been chattering together dispersed instantly and headed towards Gu Xinyan's house.

Commander Zhang, who was a step behind, looked at the large group of people following behind Gu Xinyan, shook his head with a smile, and then turned to the people beside him and said:

"Let's go, let's go into the village too!" After saying that, he took the lead and walked forward. Seeing this, Lu Yunting also led his men to follow.

Gu Xinyan, who was running in the lead, was completely focused on her home and had no time to pay attention to the group of people following behind her.

When she ran home, she saw a woman in the yard who was about her age, but she was a cool type. She was talking to her grandmother and made her grandmother laugh non-stop.

And there was a familiar figure beside her, none other than Li Chendong, who had come to pick her up to go to Beijing. At this moment, he was carrying his younger brother, running wildly all over the yard, making the little guy squeal with joy.

The warm scene in the courtyard made Gu Xinyan stop in her tracks. Before she could make a move, Gu Xinya, who was inside the courtyard, had already noticed her.

Although she had never met Gu Xinyan in person, she had seen her photo when she was arranged to come here, so she recognized her as soon as she saw her.

Although she didn't know why she was assigned to this place, a soldier's duty is to obey orders.

So for the past month, she and Li Chendong have been taking good care of the grandmother and granddaughter. Upon seeing Gu Xinyan, they softly said to Grandma Gu:

"Grandma Gu, your granddaughter is back! She's right at the door!"

Upon hearing this, Grandma Gu, who had been laughing heartily, immediately stopped laughing, stood up, and started walking towards the courtyard gate.

But because he couldn't see, he could only grope his way forward, muttering to himself as he went.

"My darling? My darling is back, right?"

"grandmother!"

Hearing her grandmother's call, Gu Xinyan couldn't help but shout back. She quickly ran into the yard and hugged her grandmother, who was still walking towards the door.

Feeling my grandmother's familiar embrace, a huge weight was lifted from my heart.

Although she had only been gone for a month, it felt like she had been gone for a long time.

Perhaps because I went to another world, I was always afraid that I would be stuck there and never be able to come back. So when I saw my closest family members, the unease in my heart disappeared instantly.

"My dear, it's so good to be back! Grandma missed you so much!" Grandma Gu patted Gu Xinyan's back, her voice slightly choked with emotion.

When the government sent someone to tell her that their granddaughter had some kind of destiny and was going to some other world, she was terrified.

They even said they would pick her and An'an up and take them to the capital, but that's so far away, how could she dare to go!

Although she didn't know where her granddaughter was going, she had a feeling that something serious had happened, so she could only stay at home and take good care of herself and Dou Dou so as not to cause trouble for her granddaughter.

I stayed home and waited patiently for my granddaughter to come home, not going anywhere. Now, after waiting day and night, my granddaughter has finally returned.

Gu Xinyan held her grandmother for a while before finally stepping out of her arms. Looking at her grandmother's anxious face, she quickly comforted her with heartache.

"Grandma, I'm back now! Don't rush, let's go inside and talk slowly!"

"Good, good! It's good that you're back! Yes, yes, yes! Let's go inside and talk! Let's go inside." Grandma Gu held Gu Xinyan's hand tightly, trying to pull her into the house.

Just then, the group of people who had been following Gu Xinyan also gathered around. Upon seeing Grandma Gu, the villagers began to say:

"Grandma Gu, where did your granddaughter come from? How did she get back by helicopter?"

"Yeah, what do I see? They're all government officials! They're all wearing military uniforms! They look so impressive!"

"Xinyan went to join the army? I've never heard you mention it before."

"Yes, yes, Xinyan looks like she's got real talent. She's so much better than my brat. All he does is hang out outside. He won't come back no matter how much I call him!"

"Hey! Who says otherwise? My daughter is the same. She doesn't even earn enough to cover her own expenses. I have to give her extra every month. I don't know what's so attractive about the outside world that she keeps running off to it."

Hearing the familiar voice, Grandma Gu paused in her walk back, then turned around and looked in the direction of the sound. Although she couldn't see anything, she knew the villagers were there, and said with a smile:

"Dali's family, my darling went to help the country a while ago, so he's only just come back. He didn't go to join the army. He must be exhausted since he just got back, so I won't entertain you for now! I'll have a good chat with you later when I have some free time!"

"Alright, alright! You all go ahead with your work, we'll head back now. Tell us all about it later! Okay, okay, everyone hurry back! Let Xinyan get some rest first." Aunt Dali replied quickly, and as she left, she didn't forget to call the other villagers to go with her.

A group of people came and went in a hurry, and soon everyone in the courtyard had left, leaving only Commander Zhang and a few others.

Gu Xinya and Li Chendong, who had been silently standing in the background, wanted to go forward when they saw their captain and Commander Zhang, but the two gestured for them not to come over.

Commander Zhang smiled as he watched the grandmother and granddaughter holding hands affectionately, and the little boy staring wide-eyed at his sister. He couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Indeed, the happiest thing in the world is when family members are reunited!
