Later I met a few villagers.
Qiao Qingqing greeted everyone with a smile and invited them to visit her home some other day.
As a result, the news that Qiao Zhiqing had returned spread quickly.
When Qiao Qingqing got home and had just finished cooking, the gate of the courtyard rang.
Lu Heng was originally hugging the reluctant third child, wanting to improve their relationship with his daughter-in-law. When he heard the sound, he said, "I'll go open it" without waiting for his wife to come out of the kitchen.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw the team leader's family, Yao Xiaoman, Zhou Lanfang, and several male comrades from the educated youth site, a large group of people standing at his door.
“Really my brother-in-law!”
When they saw Lu Heng, the educated youth shouted in surprise.
Feng Xiumei's eyes were filled with tears of joy. "Good, at least she's still alive! Otherwise, with Qiao Zhiqing's condition, we'd be really worried that she would be upset."
These words made Lu Heng a little confused.
Yao Xiaoman, who was quick-talking, also sniffed her nose and choked up as she said, "Brother-in-law, please don't go on such dangerous missions in the future. When the news of your sacrifice came back last time, Sister Qingqing fainted immediately after hearing it. This time when we go to Jing City, Sister Qingqing is ready to bring the children to find you."
Take the kids to find him?
Lu Heng was in a trance for a moment, and then he regained consciousness.
His heart suddenly hit him hard, a shudder ran down his back, and his eyes almost immediately turned red.
Fortunately, it was dark and the light was dim, so no one noticed Lu Heng's subtle change.
From the time they met again to the present, Qingqing had never said a word about her feelings after she learned the news, and naturally she could not tell him that she had thought that if he died, she would not live either.
If these people hadn't told him, he would still be in the dark...
Lu Heng felt sour and bitter in his heart, his heartstrings trembled slightly, he was moved but also scared.
In front of so many guests, Lu Heng forced himself to suppress his fluctuating emotions.
He invited everyone in, and the yard suddenly became noisy. Yao Xiaoman and Zhou Lanfang ran over to talk to Qiao Qingqing, while others played with the children or chatted.
Qiao Qingqing downplayed the experience of going to the capital, not emphasizing too much on the difficulties and obstacles involved.
Lu Heng looked at her silently, with tenderness in his eyes.
Until someone asked him how he responded to the news that he had died.
Lu Heng briefly explained the situation.
Naturally, I will not mention the confidential parts and only talk about what can be said.
After hearing this, everyone felt relieved.
Then, he asked about his family.
Before Lu Heng could answer, his wife said happily, "They are coming back too! They said that we will let them do the renovation here in the future. I don't know where they are now. I hope they can come back for the New Year."
Feng Xiumei smiled and said, "Of course I will. Even if I can't make it this year, as long as I come back, you and your family can spend many more years together!"
"Yes, actually, I'm afraid that the old man's body can't stand two long journeys in such a short time."
Qiao Qingqing was a little worried. The old man's health was gradually restored by drinking spiritual spring water, and she had been taking good care of him afterwards. She didn't dare let him do heavy work, for she was really afraid that he would be hurt this time.
Suddenly thinking of something, Qiao Qingqing turned her head to look at Lu Heng. Just as she was about to speak, she met Lu Heng's extremely affectionate eyes and suddenly got stuck.
Then her cheeks felt hot. Why was this person staring at her like that?
Qiao Qingqing didn't dare to look him in the eye, and looked away and said casually: "Lu Heng, go to the island every day to ask where they are? Do they need you to pick them up?"
