The package sent from Yongning Village finally arrived at the army that day, but when Li Xia went to pick up the package, he was dumbfounded.

There is no other reason, the main reason is that this package is too big!

In the past, all the packages Li Xia received were from newspapers. Even though the packages she received recently were much larger than before because of more letters from readers, they were still not as big as this time!

When Li Xia saw that the package was sent from Eastern Province, he immediately understood.

This huge package represents Grandpa Gu’s deep love for his grandson.

Seeing that Li Xia didn't look like someone who could carry such a large package, the postman volunteered to help her deliver the package to her home.

Li Xia thanked him repeatedly and even took out some candy as a thank you gift when they got home.

But the postman repeatedly waved his hands and refused to accept it. He scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Your words last time encouraged me. I have been persisting in writing, and finally received the news that the manuscript was accepted last week!"

"You may think that what you said is nothing, just a casual remark, but it means a lot to me. I have submitted manuscripts for more than a year, and none of them have been accepted. My family members do not support me to continue writing. It was your words that made me persist, and this is how I made this breakthrough."

"And I guessed that you are 'Ping An'. Your articles have inspired me a lot and taught me a lot. I admire you so much in my heart. I am so happy to be able to help you. How can I take your things?"

The respectful term "you" used throughout the article shows his respect for Li Xia.

Li Xia really didn't expect that what she said at the beginning would inspire him so much.

Hearing him say that the article had been accepted, Li Xia couldn't hide her joy: "Perseverance is a virtue. Congratulations on your success in pursuing your dream, and I wish you can write even better articles in the future."

"Yes!" The postman was very happy. "Thank you for your encouragement! I will try my best to follow in your footsteps!"

In the end, Li Xia gave him the candies. The postman refused the candies given by his idol the first time, but he really had no choice but to accept them the second time.

After the postman left, Li Xia looked at the big package but didn't rush to open it.

She thinks it is a happy thing to open a package, especially a package sent by relatives. Gu Weicheng has been away from home for more than ten years. At first, he received packages from his hometown, but later he stopped letting Grandpa Gu send packages because he often changed his station and it was inconvenient to receive packages.

He hadn't received a package from his relatives for a long, long time, and Li Xia planned to let Gu Weicheng open it himself.

Li Xia returned to her room and wrote an article for half an hour, and then Gu Weicheng and An An came back one after another.

Jifeng followed An An back. Every day, he would wait for An An at the school gate half an hour in advance after school, and then accompany An An back.

The students in the school were very surprised to see An An and envied him for having a military dog ​​to pick him up from school.

There was also a child who saw that Ji Feng had only one eye. After learning from An An that it was the injury Ji Feng suffered when fighting with the gangsters and that it was a symbol of bravery, he went home and made a piece of cloth to cover his own eyes, and as a result, he was treated to a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.

"A package has arrived from my hometown. I haven't opened it yet. Let's take a look at what's inside." Li Xia came out to greet the father and son and Ji Feng.

"Is this the package sent by my great-grandfather? I love opening packages the most. I want to see what's inside!" An An cheered.

Gu Weicheng also nodded, and even Ji Feng came over to see if there was anything for him inside.

The three of them and the dog gathered together to open the package, which contained mostly things prepared for the children, including toys such as rattles, children's clothes, some local specialties, and a piece of bright red floral cloth prepared for Li Xia, similar to the pattern of the flowered jackets in Eastern Province.

Li Xia: “…”

Well, although Grandpa Gu’s vision is not very good, he still likes her as his granddaughter-in-law, which is much better than Gu Weicheng who has no sense of participation.

After all, in such a big package, nothing was specially prepared for him.

An An was extremely happy when she saw so many things, most of which were for her. At the same time, she was very considerate and comforted her parents, especially her father: "Dad, my great grandfather sent me a lot of things. Why don't you pick one you like from here and I'll give it to you."

Gu Weicheng: “…”

Thank you, great son.

However, he would only get jealous of his son in certain situations. At this time, he was not jealous. He smiled and said, "Grandpa loves you so much that you should take all the gifts. Dad is too old to play with these things anymore."

There was also a wooden pistol inside, which his grandfather had made for him when he was a child. However, An An's pistol didn't look as exquisite as the one his grandfather had made for him.

He knew it wasn't that his grandfather wasn't paying attention, but that he was getting older and his eyesight was wearing out and not as good as before.

Thinking of his grandfather, Gu Weicheng was moved.

He wanted to go back these years, but his grandfather wouldn't let him.

He no longer cared about that matter, and didn't care what others thought of him. As for that person, he no longer considered him his father, and he didn't care what he thought.

But grandpa has too many concerns. If it weren’t for taking care of grandpa’s mood, Gu Weicheng would have gone back to see grandpa long ago.

"There's another letter here." An An found a letter in the package and volunteered, "Mom and Dad, I've learned a lot of new words recently. Let me read the letter."

Li Xia naturally agreed with both hands. She noticed that Gu Weicheng's expression was not right, so she reached out and held his hand, squeezing it gently.

She knew that Gu Weicheng was missing home.

Gu Weicheng felt his wife's touch and found that her hands were a little cold, so he wrapped her hands instead. He guessed that she must have just been writing an article, so her hands were so cold.

He had taken an unused IV bottle from the clinic and filled it with hot water to warm his hands. But it seemed that it was not enough because the water cooled too quickly. When Li Xia was writing, he would not stop easily for fear of interrupting his train of thought.

Gu Weicheng planned to make another fire bucket that could be placed at his feet to warm both his hands and feet, so he wouldn't have to worry about Li Xia getting her hands frozen.

While Gu Weicheng was warming Li Xia's hands, An An had already opened the letter and started reading.

"Acropolis, I'm grandpa."

It was so funny for a little kid like An An to say such things in an old man's tone that even he couldn't help laughing.

This was when he called his father's name directly. He secretly glanced at his father when he called it, and seeing that he was not angry, he dared to continue reading.

"I have received the package you sent. My granddaughter-in-law is a very good cook and the dried meat she made is delicious. I am in good health and you don't have to worry about me. You must take good care of yourself over there. Weicheng, although my granddaughter-in-law has been married once and An An is not your child, but..."

An An couldn't read any more. He raised his head with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Dad, why did great grandfather say that I'm not your child?"

Li Xia also looked at Gu Weicheng. Yes, how come she had only been married once?
