"Dad!" Xu Shuhua shouted with sobs, her vision blurred by tears.
Teacher Xu came over and saw his daughter like this. His eyes also turned red. He held Xingbao in one hand and patted his daughter's shoulder with the other hand. "Come home with Dad."
Xu Shuhua nodded, took the luggage from Qi Mo'nan, said hello to Song Yun, and got into the jeep waiting outside with Commander Xu.
Song Yun and the soldiers took a large truck back to the military region.
It was already evening when they returned to the family compound. Ziyi and Gu Lao were cooking in the kitchen, Gu Lao lighting the fire while Ziyi stir-fried the food. As Ziyi cooked, he shared interesting stories from school with Gu Lao, who listened with a broad smile, commenting from time to time. They looked just like a real grandfather and grandson.
Song Yun suddenly appeared at the kitchen door, which made Ziyi so happy that he almost burnt the food in the pot.
After dinner, Song Yun took out the gifts she bought in Beijing, new clothes and new shoes. The old and the young were so happy that they were at a loss as to what to do. They immediately went back to the house to change into new clothes and show off, regardless of whether the weather was suitable or not.
At 7:30 in the evening, Lao Laotou and Ziyi were washing dishes and pots in the kitchen together. Song Yun put the clothes to be washed in a basin, planning to wash them together after taking a shower.
The water in the pot was not yet heated when Commander Xu came over with Xu Shuhua and Xingbao, carrying a bag of things such as canned fruits.
When Commander Xu came to Song Yun's house for the first time, he saw Gu Lao, an old man in an apron, coming out from behind as soon as he entered the yard. He was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head. "Old Gu, is that you?"
The old man rolled his eyes, "No, you got the wrong person."
Commander Xu laughed heartily. "Old boy, you look quite good in an apron. Who said you'd never wear an apron in your lifetime?"
The old man's face flushed and he said angrily, "Get lost."
After the two of them finished arguing, the old man saw what Commander Xu was holding and raised his eyebrows. "Hey, the sun is rising from the west, and you still remember to bring something to see me?"
Teacher Xu chuckled, "Do you live in this room?"
The old man finally realized, "You're looking for Miss Yun?" Then he clicked his tongue twice, "No one comes to Sanbao's shop for no reason. You're bringing gifts, so you must have something to ask of my Miss Yun. Humph, I'm in charge of Miss Yun's affairs, you have to ask me first."
Commander Xu put his things down and ignored the old man. He said to Song Yun, who was carrying tea, "Don't worry, we'll sit down for a while."
"I drank the tea and said, 'This is the tea I brought from Beijing. Please try it.'"
Teacher Xu sat down with a smile, and saw Ziyi coming out with washed fruits. The little guy looked very good, as cute as a fairy boy. I heard that he was very good at studying and had always been the top of his class. The teachers in the school, including the principal, all praised him when they mentioned him.
Teacher Xu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Xingbao is also very good-looking, it would be great if he can study as well as Ziyi in the future.
Thinking of this, he told Song Yun his purpose.
"Xiao Yun, I came here this time not only to thank you for saving Shuhua and Xingbao on the train, but also to ask you for something."
Since Commander Xu could use the word "ask", it was obviously a private matter.
