The two walked along, greeting people as they went.
"Commander Huo, is this your wife? She's really beautiful."
"Yes, sister-in-law, this is my wife."
"Commander Huo brought his wife back!"
"Yes, ma'am, this is my wife, I brought her back."
...................(Questions and answers are the same as above)
"You've finally arrived! If you hadn't come soon, I would have gone down to wake you up." Gu Jinghe looked at the two approaching from outside the courtyard. It was already past 5 o'clock, and he thought the two of them were still asleep!
"It's our fault, we were delayed a bit," Huo Haocheng apologized to him.
"I'm not in a hurry, it's just that my mom has been asking about it ever since I got back," Gu Jinghe said with a troubled expression.
"Gu Jinghe, you brat, I'm asking about your business, don't drag your sister and brother-in-law into it!" Hearing the noise in the courtyard, Teacher Shen came out to greet them, but unexpectedly, she heard her son beckoning to her. Judging from his voice, Teacher Shen had a strong voice.
When Gu Jinghe heard his mother's voice coming from behind him, he knew he was in trouble. These days, you can't talk badly about people behind their backs, or you'll end up talking about them.
Ruan Ruan and Huo Haocheng watched him with amusement, then glanced behind him. Teacher Shen was of well-proportioned build, probably around 1.6 meters tall, and very capable. She was the director of Yuncheng High School, as they'd heard.
"Mom, I was wrong," Gu Jinghe said decisively, turning around to admit his mistake.
I'll deal with you later.
"You must be Ruan Ruan! Haocheng, you're back. Come on, come inside," he said, pulling Ruan Ruan's hand and leading her into the house.
"Quick, sit down and eat watermelon." Teacher Shen first asked Ruan Ruan to sit on the sofa, and then brought out a sliced ​​watermelon from the kitchen and placed it in front of them.
"Aunt, please sit down for a while. This is a small gift I brought for you. I hope you like it." As she spoke, Ruan Ruan took the things from Huo Haocheng's hand and gave them to Teacher Shen.
"You came all this way, but what did you bring? Look at your own son, who makes the rare trip to Beijing, and he didn't bring anything back for me and Dad." Teacher Shen looked at the clothes Ruan Ruan bought and Gu Jinghe, who returned empty-handed. Everyone says that sons are not as considerate as daughters, and that's absolutely true.
Looking at Gu Jinghe's mournful eyes, Ruan Ruan was surprised. Gu Jinghe had brought back quite a lot of luggage. Could it be that he really brought nothing? Ruan Ruan looked at him in confusion.
"Mom, didn't I bring you some cloth back?"
"Those were all prepared by your grandma and second aunt. You were just responsible for bringing them back. What does it have to do with you?" Teacher Shen got angry when she heard this. When she came back and saw a few pieces of cloth on the sofa, Teacher Shen thought that her son had finally come to his senses. Judging from the color, it should have been prepared for them and Jiang Yuli. But when she asked, she found out that the old lady and her sister-in-law had prepared them.
You went out to play and didn't prepare anything for your parents, fine, but you just confessed your feelings to someone and came back without a gift. Is that how you pursue someone? So, before Huo Haocheng and the others even arrived, she was subjected to a soul-searching interrogation. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she used Ruan Ruan as an excuse to run away.
"Have Ruan Ruan and Hao Cheng arrived yet?" Gu Wenpeng heard Teacher Shen's voice as soon as he entered the courtyard, thinking that Ruan Ruan and the others must have arrived, since he could hear their voices before seeing them.
"Uncle, we've arrived."
"Commander, we're back."
Upon hearing Gu Wenpeng's voice, Ruan Ruan and Huo Haocheng came out to greet him.
"Good lad, not bad, you've really struck gold this time," Gu Wenpeng said. He was quite optimistic about Huo Haocheng and Ruan Ruan's marriage, after all, Huo Haocheng was his strongest soldier.
"Ruan Ruan, welcome home." Gu Wenpeng looked at the little girl standing in front of him and didn't know what to say to her for a moment. He just patted her shoulder gently.
"Thank you, Uncle." Faced with Gu Wenpeng's sudden display of tenderness, she felt a warmth in her heart.
"Welcome home, sister," Gu Jingming, following behind Gu Wenpeng, echoed his father's words. Fourteen-year-old Gu Jingming, already over 1.6 meters tall, stood with his sister; anyone who didn't know them would mistake them for an older brother and sister.
"Thank you, Xiaoming. I brought you a gift. See if you like it." She said, pulling Gu Jingming's arm and walking to the coffee table, handing him a bag.
"Wow, one of my classmates has this set of school supplies too. He said he bought it at the Overseas Chinese Store in Haicheng. They don't have it here in Yuncheng. I really love it! Thank you, sister!" Gu Jingming was overjoyed when he took out the stationery. He had liked it when he saw it at his classmate's place before, but he was a little disappointed when he heard that Yuncheng didn't have it. Now that Ruan Ruan had given it to him, he was really happy. He happily hugged Ruan Ruan and jumped up and down twice.
Seeing her youngest son's happy expression after receiving the gift, Teacher Shen turned her gaze back to her eldest son, thinking, "I've really raised this son for nothing."
After sighing, he turned and went to the kitchen to prepare to cook. The ingredients had been prepared beforehand, and he was just waiting for the person to come back so he could start cooking.
"Um, Uncle, these are clothes I bought for you and Aunt. See if they fit." Seeing how her aunt had looked at Gu Jinghe earlier, Ruan Ruan didn't know whether she should take out the gifts from her uncle and aunt, but then she thought, since things had already come to this, it didn't matter, so she gave the gifts to Gu Wenpeng.
"They fit perfectly, your aunt and I both love them." After taking the clothes his niece had bought, Gu Wenpeng opened them and looked at them. Sure enough, they both suited them well. Gu Wenpeng wore a Zhongshan suit, and Teacher Shen wore a camel-colored dress.
At this moment, Gu Wenpeng also realized the look that Teacher Shen had given Gu Jinghe earlier. He really deserved it.
