After Huang Guohui's matter was dealt with, Li Aihua brought her a letter.
The letter was sent by Ji Renhui two months ago, saying that Qiu Jing was pregnant with a single baby. Because of their bet, she wrote to tell her about this.
This matter is particularly important to her, so she wants to go to the tribe.
?But the New Year is approaching, and if she goes to the clan, she won’t be able to celebrate the New Year in the capital.
Thinking of this, Hu Lin went to Zhou Huaijing's unit and told him about it.
Zhou Huaijing was a little confused, "We can go after the New Year? Why must we go now?"
He didn't understand why Hu Lin was so curious about Qiu Jing's pregnancy, and so anxious.
It doesn't look like she just likes children.
"I can't explain it to you, but I have to go." Hu Lin had a serious look on his face and his words were full of seriousness.
Zhou Huaijing pondered silently.
When Hu Lin saw Zhou Huaijing's actions, his heart sank a little bit.
These are the things that separate them. She cannot be honest with them, and neither can Zhou Huaijing.
"Then wait for me for a few days, I'll talk to my boss and I'll go with you." Zhou Huaijing was silent just now because he was thinking about this.
It is a bit difficult to ask for leave temporarily, but at the end of the year, if he asks for leave at this critical moment, at most he will be criticized a few times.
Hu Lin's heart softened, "Okay. I also want to go find Zhao Ming and the others."
"Well. What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you." Zhou Huaijing smiled.
"It's up to you." Hu Lin was a little surprised.
She didn’t know Zhou Huaijing could cook, nor did she know how the food would taste, she just hoped it wouldn’t be bad.
Zhou Huaijing submitted his request for leave, but it would take three days for it to be approved.
After she went to find Zhao Ming, she stayed in Qinyuan for two days to accompany Li Aihua.
The night before leaving, they went back to Zhou's house for dinner. Since neither of them would be in Beijing for the New Year this year, they treated it as a reunion dinner in advance.
At the dinner table, Zhou Huaijing and Zhou Hong drank two glasses of wine.
Zhou Huaimin followed suit and drank some, and his face turned into a bitter gourd because of the spiciness.
Everyone at the table laughed at him.
"If you can't drink, don't drink it." Xu Mingzhu's face was full of kindness.
The youngest son has completely changed since talking to his sister-in-law.
Not only does he eat on time, he also exercises regularly. Now he speaks with more energy and is not so weak anymore.
Zhou Huaimin calmed down after drinking the juice and complained, "I really don't know why my dad and brother like to drink it."
As soon as I heard it, I knew he would never drink again.
"Of course it's fun." Zhou Honggan said in an unfathomable way.
"When the family is reunited and the body is healthy, everything will naturally become clear." Zhou Anbo also said.
The old couple usually kept silent while eating, but today they broke the rule because of Zhou Huaimin's teasing.
"It's the same when I drink Arctic Ocean." Zhou Huaimin still had a look of aversion to alcohol on his face.
The rest of the people were laughing.
Seeing them chatting idly, Xu Mingzhu talked about business, "When will Huai En report to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"
Zhou Huai'en graduated this year.
By now she had mastered and mastered ten languages, making her a natural fit for the Foreign Office and something she herself was willing to do.
"The eighth day of the first lunar month." Zhou Honggan replied.
"So early?" Xu Mingzhu was a little surprised, and so was Zhou Huai'en.
"Let her get familiar with the situation ahead of time. There will be a lot of work after the New Year and I'm afraid she can't keep up." Zhou Honggan explained.
"Okay." Xu Mingzhu still felt a little reluctant.
"Dad, don't worry, I promise not to embarrass you." Zhou Huai'en said playfully.
"Do a good job." Zhou Huaijing has high hopes for him.
"Yeah." Zhou Huai'en responded.
After dinner, the two went home.
The next morning, Hu Lin and Zhou Huaijing took some money, bought some gifts, and drove to Nanshan in a jeep.
The snowy road in the South Mountain was difficult to travel on at this time, so the two entered the mountain early in the morning and arrived at the border of the tribe in the evening.
The days are short in winter, so the two men did not rest and continued to fight.
In previous years, no one would come to the tribe at this time of year. The leader of the law enforcement team, who was forced to work overtime, looked at the exit and had a vague premonition that the person coming would be their honorary elder Hu Lin.
She is the only one who does not play by the rules.
Sure enough, the moment he saw Hu Lin, a look of "I knew it" appeared on his face.
He said in a servile manner: "Elder, why are you here on New Year's Day?"
That’s right, it’s the first month of the year now.
The roads were slippery due to the snow, so they drove slowly.
When we set out, it was already the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, and we arrived at Nanshan on the 8th day of the first lunar month.
"Come to visit." Hu Lin said perfunctorily.
When the team leader heard this, he was speechless.
At this time of year, those who come all the way from Beijing to visit here probably spend New Year's Eve on the road.
He was in a state of deep inner drama, but on the outside he was still doing his job conscientiously, "Then I'll take you to the guest room first."
Hu Lin nodded, and the team leader took the two to the guest room.
Zhou Huaijing was carrying two suitcases and Hu Lin was holding some gifts. The scene was so similar.
And this man looked somewhat familiar.
After the last misunderstanding, the team leader only found out that Yang Qing was Hu Lin’s apprentice, not her husband, when Yang Qing started living in the tribe.
I don’t know if this is the case now.
He had met Zhou Huaijing before, but Zhou Huaijing came to the clan to assign a task, so he didn't know who Zhou Huaijing was, and the news didn't spread within the clan.
When they arrived at the guest room, the team leader quietly asked Hu Lin in order to avoid making the same mistake, "Elder, should I arrange one room for you or two?"
Listening to this, Hu Lin also thought of the mistake he made last time and smiled, "One room."
