Chapter 214 Departure to Beijing
"Brother Xiao, I want to watch you play chess!" Gu Qiqi turned his gaze to Xiao Mo.
"I'll go get the chess pieces!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Mo happily ran into the house to get the chess pieces.
Bai Zhengshan was stunned. He was still a little dazed until Xiao Mo took the chessboard out of the house and placed it in front of him!
This boy really listens to the little girl.
The little girl's orders are more effective than an imperial edict.
But this is a good thing for him. It was rare to play chess with his little grandson before, but now, thanks to the little girl, his grandson took the initiative to play chess with him.
In a blink of an eye, three days had passed since Bai Zhengshan came from Beijing.
During these three days, Bai Zhengshan ate at Gu's house and stayed at his son-in-law's house. He was accompanied by a group of little kids every day, and he felt reluctant to leave.
No wonder Xiu Li took the initiative to apply to stay here after coming to Nanshi.
Not only because there is someone she cares about, but also because life here is so enjoyable!
Unfortunately, although he has retired, his connections in Beijing are still there, and there are some things that still need him to keep an eye on, so he can't stay just because he wants to.
Bai Zhengshan stayed for another week and then left.
He was very reluctant to leave and invited Su Qingshan and others to visit Beijing when they had time.
I used to be alone at home and didn’t feel anything. But after coming to Nanshi, especially after staying at Gu’s house for a few days, the atmosphere at home was warm and harmonious. It was lively after school, but once I left, it would return to the original loneliness again...
It felt so uncomfortable!
Bai Zhengshan is old after all. The older you get, the more you miss your family...
When he left, he looked at his son-in-law and daughter, opened his mouth, and had a lot to say, but in the end he swallowed it back.
"When summer vacation comes, I'll let Xiumei and Xiao Mo go back to accompany you!" Xiao Yi saw his father-in-law's reluctance and said.
"Okay, come back to Beijing often when you have time. If Mo'er can't bear to leave the little girl, bring her to Beijing to play!" Bai Zhengshan said happily.
He finally figured it out.
The little girl specializes in treating Mo Mo.
Wherever she is, Mo Mo will follow!
If I could coax the little girl to Beijing, I wouldn't have to worry about Xiao Mo not coming home.
Gu Qiqi is quite interested in Beijing!
She has not seen Beijing in the 1970s. As the capital of the country, it must be more prosperous than Nanshi and full of historical charm!
Time flies and it’s already midsummer!
My brothers are all on vacation.
The watermelons at home are ripe.
Bai Xiuli had picked several crops of vegetables that she had planted in the Xiao family's yard, and the five chicks that she had brought back from the Gu family had all grown up.
She still eats at Gu's house, and the first thing she does every morning when she gets up is to help fetch water for the Gu family.
Water the vegetables in the yard every two days!
Watching the vegetables that I carefully watered grow vigorously, eggplants, beans, tomatoes...
The branches are bent with so many fruits.
Bai Xiu Li will feel a sense of accomplishment!
The rabbit at home has grown up again.
These rabbits come quickly, growing into adults in an average of two months and ready to be killed and eaten for meat!
In addition, Su Mingyuan came to the compound whenever he had time, and often took Bai Xiuli to the river to fish, so the Gu family could not finish all the fish and meat...
It is midsummer again now. You can pick any watermelon, cucumber or tomato you want.
It can be said that the Gu family’s life cannot be enjoyed even in a large compound in Beijing.
Bai Xiuli likes her present life very much.
Life was easy and comfortable. Every day I fed the chickens, played with the rabbits, picked vegetables, and fell in love with Su Mingyuan...
"Your Grandpa Bai called again and invited our family to visit Beijing. Do you want to go?" Gu Jianguo said while eating at the dinner table after returning from get off work in the evening.
Dong Yulan: "We have a garden of vegetables that need to be taken care of. What will happen if they get old when you leave? We also have chickens and rabbits at home, and they all need someone to take care of them!"
"Aunt, you guys go and have fun. I'll take care of the household matters. My dad is lonely in Beijing, so I'm hoping you can come and keep him company. Then you can go around the capital and take some photos as a souvenir..." Bai Xiuli took over the matter immediately after hearing this.
The children are on holiday, so Uncle Su and Sister Mingmei are also on holiday. Anyway, they are free here anyway, so it would be nice to go out for a walk!
"Uncle Bai invited me sincerely, why don't we go to Beijing to take a look?" Su Mingmei was a little tempted.
Beijing is the capital!
She dreams of going there once!
Moreover, as children grow up, going out more often can help them gain knowledge and broaden their horizons!
"Go ahead, go ahead. My dad misses Qibao!" Bai Xiuli strongly agreed.
When Qibao goes, Momo will follow him back to Beijing!
Her father will finally get to see his long-missed grandson.
Come to think of it, her father is indeed quite lonely staying alone in Beijing.
Before, her sister and brother-in-law were transferred to Nanshi, so she at least stayed in Jingshi and could go home every now and then.
Now that she has been transferred here, it is not so easy for her to go back.
"Haha, you are thinking about boy Mo!" Dong Yulan couldn't help laughing.
Bai Xiuli: "It's the same. I miss Qibao too. After all, our Qibao is so cute!"
After deciding to go to Beijing, Su Mingmei and the others packed up simply.
Dong Yulan went to her own vegetable garden specially and picked more than ten watermelons in one go, as well as a lot of other vegetables, including cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, beans, peppers... She said she would take them to Beijing for her in-laws to taste!
"There are so many, we can't take them all away!" Su Mingmei was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Dong Yulan thought about it and it made sense. Although Qibao was able to hide all these things and bring them to Beijing, it would be difficult to explain.
In the end, Dong Yulan picked out some important things and took five watermelons. Each of the four children took one, and she took another.
I picked out some vegetables that could be stored and took them with me. I will ask Mingyuan to deliver them to the station and put them in the carriage. There will be someone to pick me up when I arrive at the station.
There are also two rabbits!
After picking and choosing, I finally found that there were still a lot of things!
Beijing City.
Bai Zhengshan on the other end of the phone was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling when he heard that Su Mingmei's family was going to bring their children to play.
As soon as I hung up the phone, I asked someone to clean up the room.
Bai Xiumei's work is very flexible, and she temporarily transferred her job to Beijing, which did not delay her from going home to visit her family.
Three days later, the group set out for Beijing.
Su Mingyuan happened to have something to do at the factory and had no time to see me off.
Xiao Yi directly sent two people to take the army's special car and go directly to the train station.
The two soldiers took the passes and did not leave until they had sent them on the train and settled them down.
In the hot summer, the children each held a big round watermelon in their hands. The scene was very impactful and attracted countless envious eyes.
There were nine people in total, including Bai Xiumei and her son, plus seven people from Su Qingshan's side. They used their connections to get five sleeper tickets, and the rest were hard seats.
Qibao is less than two years old, so he doesn’t need a ticket. The remaining children can get a half-price ticket!
All the things were sent to the sleeper car. Dong Yulan, Su Qingshan took Qibao, Xiao Mo, Gu Jinan and Gu Jinchen to the sleeper, while Bai Xiumei, Su Mingmei took Gu Jinze to sit in the hard seats.
