"It's Grandpa Niu." Nannan said in a crisp baby voice.
Chen Jiao looked down at her little girl and asked, "Does Nannan know that grandfather?"
Little Nannan nodded, "Yes, I know him. When mom was naughty, Grandpa Niu often picked wild fruits for Nannan and her brother to eat, and sometimes he would even give us steamed buns!"
Chen Jiao: ...
The original owner really did a sin!
She kept Chen Haoyu and Zhang Fangfang, that scumbag and bitch, well fed and well cared for all day long, but left her two children with nothing to eat.
If it weren’t for Uncle Lu and the kind people in the village who helped them, I’m afraid these two children would have really died.
However, when she heard her little girl talk about her bad behavior in the past, she felt that it was necessary to explain what happened at that time to Lu Zhengxu.
Since they have already decided to live together, she doesn't like any misunderstandings between them.
She looked at the man, but before she could explain, the man said, "Uncle Niu was my father's former leader, and he was later transferred to our village."
After Lu Zhengxu said this, Chen Jiao remembered that someone had told the original owner that her father-in-law, Lu Zhengxu's father, was also a soldier in the army. He was injured while performing a mission in the army, which damaged the foundation of his body. He retired due to illness and passed away a few years later, leaving behind only Wu Guilan and Lu Zhengxu, two orphans and a widow.
At the same time, she also remembered where she had seen Niu Yizhou.
When Chen Haoyu and Zhang Fangfang lived in the cowshed, she had fought with that scumbag and bitch, and had seen Niu Yizhou from afar several times.
It's just that no matter how noisy Chen Haoyu and Zhang Fangfang were, Niu Yizhou just concentrated on doing his work in the cowshed, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
Also because they had never met face to face, never talked to each other, or had any interactions, Chen Jiao did not have a deep impression of him.
On the way to the tractor ride point with the two children, Chen Jiao took the initiative to ask Lu Zhengxu: "During this period, have you heard the villagers talk about my past?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Zhengxu took advantage of the fact that there was no one else around, held her hand, and squeezed it gently, "Yeah. Jiaojiao, I'm sorry, it was my fault before, and I made you feel wronged."
Chen Jiao: ...
It seems that the battles she had with Chen Haoyu before the man woke up successfully cleared her reputation.
When Lu Zhengxu woke up, what she heard was probably that she was bullied by Chen Haoyu and Zhang Fangfang because she wanted to rely on those two people.
This is good, she doesn't have to explain so much.
After Chen Jiao and Lu Zhengxu sat on the tractor with their two children for a while, Wu Guilan came hurriedly.
Chen Jiao blinked and looked at Wu Guilan.
Everything about Wu Guilan was exactly the same as before, but Chen Jiao felt that her mother-in-law seemed a little different.
Wu Guilan felt embarrassed by Chen Jiao's big, blinking eyes. "Jiao Jiao, why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"
As Wu Guilan spoke, she subconsciously wiped her face with her hands.
Chen Jiao leaned close to Wu Guilan's ear and said with a smile: "There is nothing dirty on my face. I just felt that my mother had just left. There was light in her eyes and she looked a lot younger."
Wu Guilan rarely gave Chen Jiao a glare, and said in a doting tone, "Jiao Jiao, don't talk nonsense. Mom is so old, what's the point of being young?"
Chen Jiao saw that Wu Guilan's ears were slightly red, so she didn't continue teasing her and smiled sweetly.
There was no cover on the tractor bed, and the wind blew loudly as the vehicle started moving.
Chen Jiao held the little girl in her arms and protected her.
Lu Zhengxu also held his eldest son in his arms. At the same time, he turned sideways to block the wind for Chen Jiao and his beloved daughter.
The little girl nestled in her mother's arms, with two happy dimples appearing on her chubby, round face.
The little girl rubbed her face on Shen Jiao's arm, blinked her big black grape eyes at Shen Jiao, and said in a sweet voice: "It's good to have a mom and a dad."
Chen Jiao felt soft and warm in her heart, and she couldn't help but hug the little girl a little tighter.
In the past, at the end of the world, when her parents were still around, she always felt happy even when her parents took her to hide from mutated monsters.
Later, her parents died, and she lived alone in this space, and she no longer felt happy.
But now, her little girl and Lu Zhengxu made her feel this way again.
Holding her little girl in her arms and leaning against the man, she felt as if her whole world was there.
With a heart full of happiness, the tractor has arrived in the city.
Lu Zhengxu carried the two little ones off the tractor, one in each hand, and then turned around to help Chen Jiao and Wu Guilan get off the car.
Although this winter is not easy, as the year is coming to an end, the villagers are distributing food and money during these two days.
Some production teams have already slaughtered the New Year pigs.
After enduring the most difficult days, the family had food again, and people walking into the city to buy New Year's goods all had happy expressions on their faces.
At that time, the shops on the streets were not as numerous and dazzling as in later generations. There were only state-owned stores, supply and marketing cooperatives, non-staple food stores, grain stations, state-owned restaurants, state-owned photo studios, etc.
Every store was packed with people.
Two days ago, Chen Jiao took advantage of the excuse of doing some shopping to take out all the food and meat for the family's New Year's meal from the space and brought them back. Even the food and meat for the old lady and Mr. Xu had been delivered.
The main reason I came to the city today was to buy some cloth so that I can make a new cotton-padded jacket for each person in my family during the New Year.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the two children also wore new clothes and went out to pay New Year's greetings.
