When Yun Shu first saw this young man, he felt somewhat familiar.
Hearing him mention her sister's name at this moment, she became more certain of her previous guess, so she quickly responded.
"Yun Sheng is my sister, are you A Yuan?"
When Shen Yuandao heard her say her name accurately, he was immediately filled with joy and shouted excitedly.
"Aunt."
Although Yun Shu was very happy in her heart, she couldn’t help but feel anxious when she saw Shen Yuandao coming to the countryside.
She hurriedly asked, "Why are you in the countryside? Did something happen to your sister and brother-in-law?"
Shen Yuandao shook his head gently and explained.
"Nothing happened. My parents and brother are all fine. It's just that my grandparents were sent down to the countryside, and my parents are worried about them, so I took the initiative to sign up to go to the countryside."
Yun Shu nodded slightly a few times, thinking to himself, it seems that the situation in the capital is not very good, otherwise why would even the old leader be demoted.
"Then do you know exactly where your grandparents are? I can find a chance to go and see them secretly."
Shen Yuandao nodded lightly, "They are in the Sanyang Brigade. It's just that I just went to the countryside not long ago, and there are many people and eyes at the educated youth site, so I haven't had time to look for them yet."
"That's true. You've considered it very carefully. You should be more cautious." Yun Shu agreed.
She patted her nephew's arm gently and said, "It's okay. I live not far from the cowshed. I'll take some time to send some food and daily necessities to my uncle and aunt."
Shen Yuandao nodded. This arrangement couldn’t be better.
After he and Qin Huaichuan move out after a while, they can go visit their grandparents.
Shen Yuan looked at his aunt with gratitude, and then remembered that she lived alone in the countryside with a child, and he felt a little curious.
"Aunt, what happened to you back then? I haven't heard from you in all these years."
When talking about his own affairs, Yun Shu's face showed a lonely look.
"I was about to get engaged, but then I met your uncle-in-law. I broke off the engagement and married him despite my family's objections. Your grandfather has been mad at me ever since."
Shen Yuandao nodded, he knew about this.
"And what happened next?"
"Later, I became pregnant, but at this time your uncle-in-law discovered that someone was looking for him.
He then told me that he was a scientific researcher and had important information about the country in his hands.
Because there was an enemy spy in the organization, he was fired because he made mistakes on purpose.
His teacher told him that he would be taken back once the traitor was found.
Ever since we learned someone was looking for him, we hurried to the countryside to seek refuge. Firstly, we didn't have time to tell you, and secondly, we were afraid of causing trouble for you.
After arriving in the countryside, those people never came back. Just when your uncle-in-law and I were relieved, two groups of people suddenly showed up. He saw that something was wrong and immediately followed one of them and left. Until now, there has been no news, so I have been staying in the countryside waiting for him to come back.
After he left, I discovered I was pregnant again, so I had no choice but to tell others that my husband had gone back to the city for something. No one in the village suspected anything, and I have lived like this ever since.
Shen Yuandao frowned when he heard this.
"Then why don't you send a letter to the capital? Grandpa, uncle, and my mother are all very worried about you."
Yun Shu showed a bitter smile on his face, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"I left without saying goodbye back then, and I really don't have the face to contact them again. Plus, I'm afraid your grandfather is still mad at me. Plus, if I tell your grandfather, he'll definitely take me back to the capital. I'm afraid your uncle-in-law won't be able to find me when he returns, so I'll have to wait for him here."
"Aunt, don't you have two children? What about the other one?" Shen Yuandao listened to his aunt's story. He remembered that his aunt was pregnant twice. He had seen one of them in the past two days.
Speaking of this child, Yun Shu felt very sad. "The first child I gave birth to was a daughter in the first year we came here, but she died not long after."
Shen Yuandao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he quickly changed the subject.
"Aunt, can I write to them now and tell them about you?"
Yun Shu nodded slightly and said softly, "We've already met, there's no need to hide it any longer. You can do whatever you want."
Just as the two finished their conversation, Qin Huaichuan slowly walked over with a bundle of firewood.
After he walked into the yard, he turned his head slightly to avoid looking at Yun Shu and the others, quickly walked to the kitchen, and gently put down the firewood in his arms.
Then he naturally took the firewood from Su Qingqing's hand and said in a calm tone: "Su Zhiqing, let me help you light the fire."
After Su Qingqing freed her hands, she took a small stool and sat down, watching Su Mianmian cook.
Not long after, Su Mianmian's meal was ready.
Qin Huaichuan and Su Qingqing were drooling as they watched.
"Xiao Su Zhiqing, this is how you cook." Su Mianmian gave a thumbs up as he said this.
Su Qingqing also agreed. "That's right, my Mianmian cooks delicious food."
Su Qingqing looked at the pot of stewed chicken and the pot of chicken soup, and was almost dying of greed.
In addition to these two meat dishes, there are also two vegetarian dishes, stir-fried shredded potatoes and cold-mixed chicory.
This chicory is a wild vegetable unique to the northwest region. Su Mianmian used some ready-made ones when she saw they were in the kitchen.
Su Mianmian heard the conversation outside stop, and then she asked the two of them to bring the meal out.
After leaving the kitchen, Su Mianmian couldn't find the two children and felt a little worried. She was about to put down her meal and go look for them when she heard a noise coming from outside.
Sure enough, two little guys soon appeared at the gate of the yard.
One of them ran towards the kitchen door.
"Sister, I picked some flowers for you today. They're for you." He walked up to Su Mianmian with his short legs, grabbed her clothes, blinked his big eyes, and asked expectantly, "Do you like them, sister?"
Su Mianmian took the flower from his hand with one free hand, smelled it, smiled and nodded, and said, "I like it very much. Thank you, Ayan."
After hearing this, the little guy immediately cheered and jumped for joy, dancing and shouting: "Sister, Ayan loves you the most!"
Su Mianmian smiled and looked at the little guy for a while.
"Go wash your hands with Brother An An first, and I'll serve the food."
He Youan came in and left holding Su Yanshu's hand. The three of them took the food out of the kitchen.
Su Qingqing went back and brought out the steamed brown rice.
Yun Shu looked at Su Mianmian and Su Qingqing with gratitude. She knew that the chicken must belong to these two young educated youths and that they didn't have any at home.
Then she took the bowls and chopsticks, served each person a large bowl of rice, and asked everyone to start eating.
After serving the rice, she picked up a piece of meat for each of them, then looked at Shen Yuandao.
"By the way, Ayuan, why don't you bring Huaichuan to your aunt's place for dinner in the future?"
