Gu Zhao listened thoughtfully. The aunt had lived for so many years. If she really got along well with her daughter-in-law as she said, then there was actually a lot of life wisdom in it. Just like the aunt said, life must be based on mutual understanding. This sentence is not only applicable to the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but also to any other relationship, such as the relationship between husband and wife, and the relationship between parents and children.
"Young man, are you going to the provincial capital too?" the old lady asked Gu Zhao curiously.
She thought the young man was very handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked very much like her son.
"I was also going to the provincial capital. I came back this time to see my father-in-law!" said Gu Zhao.
"Meet your father-in-law? Auntie got on the bus at the same station as Gu Zhao. Your father-in-law and I are from the same county?"
"That should be the case!" Gu Zhao said with a smile.
"That's such a coincidence. How did you and your wife meet?" the old lady said excitedly.
"I took my wife's team to the countryside as educated youth. Later, after we went to college, we both got admitted to the same university, and then we got together!" Gu Zhao explained briefly.
The old lady was very surprised. "Then our two families are similar. Didn't your wife come with you?"
The old lady was still looking around, she thought that the handsome guy in front of her might be the guy's girlfriend.
"My wife is not in this carriage!" Gu Zhao said simply, without saying much more.
Next, I heard the old lady muttering about how her son and daughter-in-law were admitted to the university. She said that they studied hard every night and studied until the middle of the night.
After waiting for a long time until noon, they started to put rice in the car. Gu Zhao and the others did not buy rice, they all brought their own. Yesterday, Grandma Tian had made several cornmeal pancakes because the weather was too hot. She was worried that the cornmeal pancakes would not keep well, so she specially made cornmeal pancakes with less oil and water. Although they were a little drier, they could be stored for a long time.
The aunt saw Gu Zhao take out the cornmeal cake and share it with the tall dark-skinned man next to her. Then she reacted in surprise, "You two are together?"
She hadn't seen them talking to each other, and apart from the fact that he had just given up his seat to her, she had thought that the two didn't know each other.
"My friend!"
Gu Zhao distributed the cornmeal cakes to the tree roots and grass roots around him. Originally, the tree roots and grass roots were carrying food on their backs, but Lin Meixia felt sorry for them and did not let them carry the food, but carried it on her own. Now when it was time to eat, they did not eat.
Yu Guzhao had just put down his luggage in the sleeper car, and came here in a hurry, so he only brought his two pieces of luggage with him, and forgot the package of dry food there.
So among these four people, only Gu Zhao brought a package of food.
The old lady looked at the tree roots and grass roots, then glanced at Gu Zhao, feeling a little conflicted. Finally, she opened the big package on her knees, took out a bottle of sauce and handed it to Gu Zhao.
"It's so tasteless to eat the pancake without any taste. I happen to have a bottle of sauce here. You can eat it with this sauce. It will be much better than eating the pancake without any taste!" said the old lady.
Then the old lady took out two washed peppers and cucumbers from her bag and handed them to Gu Zhao. "I brought a lot of vegetables. I can't finish them all by myself. Help me eat some!"
Gu Zhao looked at the two cucumbers and two peppers and felt a little embarrassed. In the end, he gave the two cucumbers to Shugen and Caogen, and gave one of the two peppers to Tian Yuan and kept the other for himself.
Then the five of them had a meal with the sauce on the table. Not to mention, the sauce was quite delicious. It should be fried with mushrooms. The mushrooms in it were very meaty and big. It was quite satisfying to eat it when spread on the pancake.
The two peppers were not as spicy as Gu Zhao had imagined. Instead, they were very watery and quite thirst-quenching when eaten.
Tian Tian and the others lay comfortably in the berths. While eating, Tian Tian found Tian Yuan's bag of food under her bed. She asked Lin Meixia and found out that the two brothers, Shugen and Caogen, did not bring any food.
Tian Tian knew that they should eat Gu Zhao's meal at noon today. The package Gu Zhao put in should contain three meals for today. Since there were four people sharing one meal today, they would eat all the food.
This way they would have nothing to eat at night, so Tian Tian wanted to take their food bags and give them to them.
Tian Zhuo had just finished his meal quickly and was lying on the upper bunk with nothing to do. He wanted to go to other carriages for a walk, but when he heard what Tian Tian said, he struggled to get down from the upper bunk, "Sister, eat your meal, I'll help you take it!"
Although Tian Zhuo is a teenager now, he still has some youthfulness in his mind. As soon as he got on the train, he wanted to explore it inside and out. Now that he has heard of this opportunity, he is not enthusiastic enough to seize the initiative.
After hearing this, Tian Mu also wanted to go with Tian Zhuo. Tian Tian handed the things to the two brothers and asked them to deliver them over. Lin Meixia also handed the packages of tree roots and grass roots to them, and the two brothers delivered the things over there.
After finishing her meal, Tian Tian lay on the shaking train, feeling drowsy. She heard Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo coming back after delivering the things, one crawling onto the upper bunk and the other crawling onto the middle bunk. After she laid them down, Tian Tian lost consciousness.
Maybe the train had a very rhythmic feel, Tian Tian slept until the next day, when she got off the train.
She was half asleep and was woken up by Lin Meiyu and the others. She sat on the lower bunk for a while to wake up, then washed her face. Only then was she completely awake. They prepared their luggage in advance, and as soon as the train arrived at the station, they all got off together.
Because the hard seat, soft seat and soft sleeper carriages are all different, they made an agreement in advance that when the train arrives at the station, they all go outside the station and wait for people.
Tian Tian and the others went straight down the platform and waited for Gu Zhao and the others at the train station gate.
As a result, as soon as I walked out of the door, I saw Ge Huiyun and Gu Shuyun holding a huge sign in their hands with the words "Tian Tian" and "Gu Zhao" written on it.
"Uncle, Auntie!" Tian Tian waved at them excitedly.
Although Tian Tian and Gu Zhao have already obtained their marriage certificate, she still has no choice but to call Gu Shuyun and Ge Huiyun "parents". She always feels weird about it and prefers to call them uncle and aunt.
Ge Huiyun and Gu Shuyun also felt that it was just a title. No matter what she was called, Tian Tian would be their daughter-in-law, so they didn't care and let Tian Tian call her whatever she wanted. Tian Tian was no longer in a hurry to change her name.
But after Lin Meiyu heard Tian Tian's address, she gently patted Tian Tian's thigh. Tian Tian looked at Lin Meiyu in confusion, but Lin Meiyu did not explain the reason to Tian Tian. Instead, she looked at Ge Huiyun who was walking towards them. Gu Shuyun greeted them with a smile on her face, "In-laws, why are you here?"
"It's so hot today, thank you for taking the trouble to make this trip!" Lin Meiyu said to Gu Shuyun and the others with a smile.
"That's no big deal. Isn't the one we picked up my daughter-in-law? And since you, the mother-in-law, are here too, we must come and entertain you well. After attending this sweet wedding, you are not allowed to leave. I will take you to have a good time in the county!" Ge Huiyun said with a smile, holding Lin Meiyu's arm affectionately.
Ge Huiyun turned around and was about to pull Lin Meiyu away, but Tian Tian quickly stopped her, "Uncle, Auntie, Gu Zhao and the others haven't come out yet!"
Ge Huiyun suddenly realized, "I was wondering why something was missing. It turns out that I didn't see Gu Zhao! Why is he so slow?"
"He's in another car, so go slower when he gets out!"
They came here to pick someone up. In addition to Gu Zhao, there were several other people. Ge Huiyun and the others stood at the door, chatting while waiting for them to come out.
Lin Meiyu also introduced the other people to Ge Huiyun. Chen Guihua and the others had met them during the Chinese New Year and they knew each other. However, this was the first time that Lin Meixia and Wu Juan met Ge Huiyun.
Lin Meixia, who was originally eloquent, became inexplicably tongue-tied when she met Ge Huiyun.
In fact, when Lin Meixia was on the bus just now, she had already thought about what to say when she met Gu Zhao's parents, but after getting off the bus, she found that the train station in the provincial capital was many times larger than the train station in their small county town.
Outside the station, there is a lot of activity, and there are even several-story buildings around the station.
Lin Meixia had never seen such tall houses before. The people passing by were all well-dressed, clean and tidy. One could tell at a glance that they were workers. There were even people on the street riding bicycles up there, but they were going very fast and making a lot of noise.
The place where Lin Meixia and the others were standing was very far away from the road, but Lin Meixia could still clearly hear the roar of the bicycles.
Everything made Lin Meixia feel at a loss. She was unfamiliar with everything, the city, and the people here. The only person she knew who could live in this city was Tian Tian.
Thinking of this, Lin Meixia subconsciously moved closer to Tian Tian, as if only in this way could she feel safe.
Tian Tian noticed Lin Meixia's actions, but she didn't think about Lin Meixia. She just thought that Lin Meixia couldn't wait to meet Ge Huiyun and the others, so she didn't introduce Lin Meixia and Wu Juan to Ge Huiyun and Gu Shuyun.
When Wu Juan said hello to Ge Huiyun, Gu Zhao, who was one step behind them, also came back with Tian Yuan, Shu Gen and Cao Gen.
"Mom!" Gu Zhao smiled when he saw Lin Meishuang and the others coming over, "You must have waited for a long time. There are too many people at the station today, and I was afraid that we would get separated, so I walked a little slower!"
