Three days later, they arrived in the capital. Ruan Shaohong drove them back to Ruan Ruan's courtyard house in Wutongyuan.
The family first put down their luggage, and then went to the courtyard to see the grandparents.
Wutongyuan is not far from the compound, only about a 20-minute drive away.
"Grandpa and Grandma, Grandpa and Grandma on the other side, we're back." As soon as we entered, we saw several elderly people sitting together on the sofa, chatting about something.
Hearing the soft voice, the old man immediately got up, went over, and took the baby from her arms. "Oh my, our lovely little baby, did you miss your great-grandfather?"
“Look how well these two children are raised,” Grandma and Grandma on the other side chimed in.
When Grandpa Gu saw that Xiao Bao had been taken away by Old Man Ruan, he also took Da Bao from Wang Qun's arms.
"Da Bao, it's been so long! Do you still remember your great-grandfather?"
"My dear in-law, you must be tired from your journey. Come on, let's have some tea and rest." The old lady stepped forward, took Wang Qun's hand, and led her to sit down on the sofa. Then she poured a cup of tea for her and Ruan Ruan.
“Girl, you shouldn’t have brought the children back,” said Grandpa Ruan.
Looking at Da Bao and Xiao Bao, Grandpa Ruan also had his own concerns. Ever since Ruan Ruan said those things to the leaders last year, the leaders had been determined to conduct a thorough investigation. At this time, Ruan Ruan openly brought the children to Beijing, and he was afraid that those people would act desperately.
Besides, in recent years, Ruan Ruan has openly opposed them quite a bit. The people they've gone to great lengths to label and eliminate are now mostly in Ruan Ruan's Hope Primary School. Over the years, Huo Haocheng's Independent Regiment has secretly eliminated countless of their undercover agents.
They're all old and fearless, but Ruan Ruan and the children are still young, and they don't want anything to happen to them.
“Grandpa, I understand your thoughts, but don’t worry, they are my children. I brought them here, so I can definitely protect them.”
"Alright, the person is back, so let's not talk about this anymore. It's getting late, I'll go see if Aunt Zhang has finished cooking," the old lady interrupted the old man who was about to say something.
However, they had all witnessed Ruan Ruan's abilities, so there was no need to worry too much. Just as she said, what mother wouldn't love her own child?
After lunch, Ruan Ruan took the three children upstairs to rest.
Why are there three children?
Because Ai Ai can't take his eyes off his younger siblings once he sees them, no matter what the old lady says, he just wants to be with them. So there's no way around it. Ruan Ruan feels that looking at two children is the same as looking at three children, so there's no difference. It's good that she's taking the children for a nap, so that the elderly can also get some rest.
After Huo Haocheng and Ruan Shaohong took Ruan Ruan and the others to the Ruan family, they went straight back to their unit.
After putting the children to sleep, Ruan Ruan thought for a moment. Her original plan was to stay in Beijing for a few days, and then take the children back to Shenyang for a few days after the weather gradually warmed up. It would also be time for spring plowing, and she could help her family with cooking and other things when she got back.
Previously, Huo Yue had returned home to help, but after Huo Yue wrote a letter before the Lunar New Year saying that she was pregnant, it seems that Fu Mingyi will not agree to her returning this year.
However, based on what the old man just said, Ruan Ruan felt that the situation in Beijing might be even more tense than she had imagined.
As if struck by a thought, Ruan Ruan tucked the blankets covering the children in a little tighter, then got up and left the small building.
"Grandpa, why didn't you go to rest?"
Ruan Ruan went downstairs and saw her grandfather and maternal grandfather sitting there playing chess.
"Come down, your grandma and maternal grandma have gone to rest. We two old folks are waiting for you." Seeing her come down, the two elders started tidying up the chessboard, regardless of whether the game was finished or not.
"Waiting for me?" Ruan Ruan walked over and sat down in front of them. When she heard her grandfather say that they were not going to take a nap but sitting here waiting for her, she didn't understand for a moment what it meant for them to wait for her.
"Tell me, what's the reason you insisted on coming?" The old man was too lazy to beat around the bush with her. They had seen through their granddaughter's personality. If you were to be direct with me, she would be direct with you. But if you tried to beat around the bush with her, she could make you circle the earth.
“There’s no particular reason. We just want to be by Huo Haocheng’s side. They’ve all been transferred to Beijing, and I’m sure they’ll be staying here most of the time, except when they’re on missions. So, wherever he is, we’ll be there too. We can’t let the kids not see their father for too long. I’m afraid they’ll forget about Huo Haocheng.”
Hearing her grandfather's question, Ruan Ruan calmly told them that this was only one reason. There was another reason, but she didn't say it or think about it.
Seeing her like this, the old men temporarily believed her explanation.
However, to their surprise, the child was so mischievous that the next day they heard that a rather unusual case had appeared at a hospital in Beijing.
That makes it hard for anyone not to notice her.
"Oh, right, Grandpa, I need to make a phone call." After resolving her grandfather's and maternal grandfather's doubts, Ruan Ruan remembered that she still had things to do downstairs.
"Go ahead." Thinking that they had just arrived today, they should be calling Yuncheng to let them know they were safe. The two old men didn't have the habit of eavesdropping, so when they saw her go to the study, they started playing chess again.
Ruan Ruan made the call to the Huo family, partly to inform them that Huo Haocheng had been transferred to Beijing, and partly to ask Huo Haojie to come over.
After talking to her grandfather, Ruan Ruan came out and sat next to him as if nothing had happened, watching him play chess.
