He Gang went on a mission immediately on the day he returned to the team, and Bai Guoguo moved back to the military compound to live with the elderly for a few days.
I also visited Brother He Gang's home. They live in an apartment building with 2 bedrooms, 1 living room, 1 kitchen and 1 bathroom. Except for the small size of the house, life is quite convenient.
Because of the friction on the Indian border, Brother He was also away on a mission, so only Sister Zhang and Xiao Huzi lived here during this period.
Early in the morning, Bai Guoguo rode his electric bike to Mrs. Zhang's house to pick up Xiao Huzi to play. The little guy was on summer vacation and had been sticking to Bai Guoguo every day, almost going crazy playing with him.
Sometimes Bai Guoguo took him to climb the Great Wall, sometimes took him to the hutongs to eat snacks, and sometimes took him to go boating. She also bought him a lot of toys and stationery, and piles of picture books and comic books.
The two, one big and one small, often sit on the sofa and read comic books happily after dinner.
Sometimes even Grandpa He felt that Bai Guoguo doted on her little great-grandson too much. If she hadn't remembered to take Hu Zi to practice martial arts every morning, the old man would have had something to say.
Look, I see my grandson's wife taking her great-grandson to sit on the newly erected swing chair in the yard, reading and swinging.
This swing chair was created by my great-grandson when he saw there was a swing in the park and wanted to play on it but there was no queue.
As soon as I mentioned it when I got back, my grandson's wife immediately found someone to arrange it and even bought a new chair for it.
He also made a seesaw in the yard, and a small basketball hoop, and bought two basketballs. I've never seen anyone spoil a child so much.
Thanks to the seesaw, swing chair and basketball hoop, Little Tiger quickly joined the Boy Scouts in the compound, and now his friends often ask him to go out and play.
"Look at these two, playing together again!"
Old Mrs. Wen sat in front of the door to enjoy the cool air, and the old man also sat beside her. The old lady pointed at the two people, one big and one small, in the yard with her palm-leaf fan, with a loving smile on her face.
"They hit it off!"
Mr. He is as usual, saying little but being to the point.
After decades of companionship, Mrs. Wen has long been accustomed to it. Although her husband doesn't talk much, he responds to every word he says, which is much better than other men.
The two old people sat on rattan chairs in the corner, with a small grape trellis covering their heads. Bunches of green grapes hung on the trellis. Although they were not ripe yet, they looked beautiful.
The scattered sunlight shines through the grape leaves onto the two old people, accompanied by a slight cool breeze, which is very comfortable.
"Life is getting better and better now. When my grandson's wife gives us a great-granddaughter or a great-grandson, then everything will be perfect!"
Old Mrs. Wen fanned herself with a palm-leaf fan and sighed with contentment. Life was truly good now.
"You suffered a lot in the early years, now let's enjoy the happiness of family life!" Grandpa He patted his wife's hand.
The eldest son's family is doing well in their hometown. The second son can now study his favorite carvings at will. His granddaughter-in-law has found a lot of stones for him. He keeps the good carved objects and sends the inferior ones to the trust store to help sell them. Now he is in much better spirits.
The second daughter-in-law also found her own playmates. She went out to the vegetable market or picked up mountain products in the mountains every day. She was very busy every day.
My youngest daughter's family is doing well too. Anyway, the whole family is thriving. Apart from missing out on Gangzi's little great-grandson, I have nothing else to ask for.
Bai Guoguo played with Xiao Huzi for half a day and supervised him to do his homework. It was not until after 4 o'clock that she went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Mrs. Zhang also came today with some vegetables. Bai Guoguo received a call yesterday saying that everything she wanted was almost ready.
After dinner tonight, we will go back to the courtyard and make some preparations there before going abroad, so the whole family will take the opportunity to get together to see her off.
The family only knew that something happened to Bai Guoguo, but they didn't know that he was going to fly abroad. Bai Guoguo didn't dare tell them, for fear that the whole family at home would worry.
Although it was already 1977, the storm was still coming to an end. Having overseas connections could be life-threatening, and coupled with the confidentiality regulations, Bai Guoguo couldn't say anything at home.
He Gang didn't even know what she did in her daily life.
Some secrets are truly life-threatening, and the fewer people who know them, the better.
Bai Guoguo was the chef for today's dinner, with Mrs. Zhang and He's mother helping out. A total of six dishes were prepared.
They are pork ribs stewed with yam, shredded potatoes with vinegar, cold-mixed shredded vegetables, dry-pot green beans, preserved egg and tofu, and a bowl of fruit soup for dessert.
Among them, fruit soup is the most popular among women and children in the family.
Dice the pineapple, apple, and yellow peach, and peel the orange and break it into pieces.
Put these ingredients into water and add sugar, bring to a boil over high heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add a little lemon juice before serving. Pour into a basin, cool with well water, and then put in the refrigerator to chill.
By the time Bai Guoguo finished cooking the other dishes, the fruit soup had become cold.
In this hot summer, drinking a bowl of sour, sweet and cool fruit soup can really relieve the heat and make you feel refreshed.
Little Huzi and Old Lady Wen loved this fruit soup deeply, but unfortunately both of them, one old and one young, had weak spleen and stomach, so Bai Guoguo only gave them a small bowl and didn't give them any more.
Because Bai Guoguo wanted to go back to the courtyard, they started eating at 6 pm. Before it got dark, Bai Guoguo said goodbye to his family and was picked up by his guards.
At this time, adults and children came out to enjoy the cool air under the shade of the trees outside. Everyone saw that a special car came to pick up the young daughter-in-law of the He family.
Half a month after getting married, Bai Guoguo appeared in public so high-profile for the first time, causing a lot of talk among the neighbors.
