"Hehe, that's hilarious. You've been delayed for almost forty years. You must be very busy," He Jingyu said. "Get lost. A damn relative you haven't seen for decades suddenly shows up at your door, offering help for no reason. He must have ulterior motives."
Wu Cuifen retreated repeatedly until she reached the outside of the gate.
He Jingyu slammed the door shut and said, "Don't come to my house again. We don't have relatives like you."
Even if Wu Cuifen took the things, as long as she comes back, it means she has nothing to hide.
But this woman has been gone for so many years without returning; she must have something to hide. My grandmother's death is definitely related to her.
He Jingyu would never acknowledge such a relative.
"Okay, Dad, don't get angry over these irrelevant people," He Tiantian advised. "It's all in the past, let's not dwell on it anymore."
Wang Shuping also advised, "Alright, it's not worth getting angry over someone like that."
Qi Shuliang also learned about the He family's affairs from Qi San's grandmother, so he watched from the side without saying a word.
If they were genuine, true relatives, He Jingyu would never have kicked them out.
Furthermore, that woman doesn't look like a good person at all; she has ulterior motives.
Wu Cuifen knocked on the door a few times, but it still wouldn't open. She left, cursing under her breath.
He Tiantian prepared a simple dinner, which was divided into two tables.
He Jingyu introduced Huo Zhekun to Qi Shuliang, and together with Qi Zhenghan, the four of them chatted about some men's topics.
Wang Shuping introduced Jiang Lifang to her mother-in-law, Aunt Lan, Anna, and Qi Zhengmin.
They are both open-minded people and can get along well.
Around 7:00 PM, Qi Shuliang led his group to the hotel.
Seeing that his mother did not want to stay there, He Jingyu did not force her and personally escorted her to the guesthouse before returning.
He hasn't been home for a long time and wants to stay there.
Wang Shuping and He Tiantian were cleaning the house. Both mother and daughter are diligent people and can't stand any dirt or mess.
The next morning, the family of three ate something simple and then went to the guesthouse to meet up with Bai Qiongyu and others, and together they went to He Jinming's grave.
The weather wasn't good; the sky was overcast and a light drizzle was falling.
A slight chill, carried by the drizzle, fell on people, adding to the damp cold.
The crowd stood solemnly before the tomb.
Bai Qiongyu, dressed in a black trench coat, stood at the front and bowed three times to the tombstone, saying, "Jin Ming, thank you for raising our son."
The anger, resentment, and hatred of those years have all faded with the passage of time.
When she saw her son's family, Bai Qiongyu felt no resentment at all, and was very grateful to He Jinming.
Without He Jinming, there would be no son and his family of three as we know them today.
Bai Qiongyu walked to the side, and Qi Shuliang and Anna led their son and daughter forward, knelt down, and kowtowed three times to the tombstone.
"Godfather, you have a good son, and I have a good brother. Thank you. From now on, we brothers will support and help each other. May your spirit rest in peace in heaven," Qi Shuliang said. There was a reason why he knelt down to pay his respects.
In Qijia Village, when He Jingyu's family paid homage to his father, they also performed the same kneeling ceremony.
Similarly, he cannot be impolite.
Next came Huo Zhekun and Jiang Lifang, who bowed in greeting.
The worship ceremony ended an hour later.
They had lunch at the guesthouse.
"Jingyu, our train leaves at 2 PM. Take care, goodbye." Bai Qiongyu was a little reluctant to part with them, glancing at her son, then at her daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
He Jingyu was reluctant to part, but he knew that the separation was imminent, so he could only say, "Mother, please take good care of yourself and make arrangements for Tiantian. We will come to find you soon."
"Okay, okay." Bai Qiongyu's eyes filled with tears, and she couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.
"Take care, Mother," Wang Shuping said.
"You too," Bai Qiongyu nodded, "You're all doing well."
He Tiantian stepped forward, hugged Bai Qiongyu, and said, "Grandmother, please take good care of yourself. I will come to see you when the political environment becomes more relaxed."
“Okay!” Bai Qiongyu said, “Since you’ve chosen this love, then love it passionately. But you have to promise us that no matter what, you must protect yourself and not lose yourself because of love, or forget that there are many people around you who love you.”
"Yes, I know," He Tiantian said. "Grandma, I'll remember."
Upon arriving at the train station, Qi Zhengmin said reluctantly, "Sister Tiantian, I will miss you."
"I'll miss you too," He Tiantian said. "Study hard and make progress every day."
"Okay." Qi Zhengmin tilted his head. "Actually, I also wanted to say that, Sister Tiantian, you are actually prettier than me. You can be the number one beauty, and I'll be number two."
Everyone laughed upon hearing this.
"When you grow up, I'll give you the title of the most beautiful girl." He Tiantian pinched Qi Zhengmin's little face; this girl was too cute.
"It's a deal." Qi Zhengmin took it seriously, hoping she could stay just as beautiful in the future.
In her grandmother's words, Sweetie's beauty no longer needs clothes or jewelry to enhance it.
Oh, and she also learned a line of poetry that can be used to describe Sister Tiantian: "If you want to compare West Lake to Xi Shi, she is beautiful whether she is heavily made up or lightly made up."
The group slowly boarded the train and waved goodbye from the window.
Moreover...moreover...
As the train started moving, it sped up and sped up, and the long green train grew smaller and smaller in everyone's sight until it became a tiny dot and disappeared into the distance.
A cold wind made He Tiantian shiver. She noticed that her father was staring intently in the direction the train had left.
"Dad, let's go home," He Tiantian said. Her father must be even more reluctant to leave than they were.
He Jingyu rubbed his face with both hands, wiped away his tears, and said, "Okay, let's go home."
Huo Zhekun and Jiang Lifang had other matters to attend to, so they went to their respective workplaces.
He Jingyu returned home with his wife and daughter.
"Achoo!" He Jingyu sneezed loudly.
Wang Shuping quickly boiled some ginger soup. After drinking two bowls, He Jingyu sweated and went to bed.
Hearing her father's snoring, He Tiantian and Wang Shuping exchanged a smile and went outside.
“Mom, a lot has happened in our family this year,” He Tiantian said. “Fortunately, they’ve all been good things.”
“Yes!” Wang Shuping said with a smile, “My mother-in-law has it tough too, a woman living abroad all by herself.”
"Oh, I'm torn!" He Tiantian said. Sometimes she really wanted to go to America and come back after the reform and opening up.
However, she was worried that she would fail the political review, and that if she left the country, she and Huo Yingjie would be separated again due to external reasons.
Wang Shuping patted her daughter's hand and said softly, "You don't need to be troubled. Yingjie is a good boy, and it's worth it for us to do this. If Yingjie weren't good, your father and I would have just taken you and left with your grandmother. It's good that things are like this now. Your father and I can take this two or three years to get the peach trees planted in Qijia Village in order."
