Yunfeng would always complain to her that the Lin family was going too far. They only cared about whether the couple gave money and didn't care about their situation at all.
"After we go back, the junior high and high schools in the imperial capital are all not far from the compound, and the students come from the children in the compound nearby." Lu Shiyi thought about the strict discipline of the imperial capital's affiliated schools. Under the supervision of the teachers, the students are particularly aware of the limits.
The two German Shepherds stopped in front of the tombstone, while Lu Shiyi and Su Jin quickened their pace and walked forward.
"Great-grandfather, great-grandma, it snowed so heavily that grandpa and grandma didn't come, so our family of three came." Lu Shiyi squatted in front of the tombstone and spoke in a low voice.
Su Jin listened to Lu Shiyi and took Hanhan down from the chair.
"Hanhan, come here!" Lu Shiyi took Hanhan in his arms and kowtowed to the tombstone.
Su Jin knelt beside him. Lu Shiyi had already taken a piece of elk skin and spread it on the ground, so the two of them didn't feel cold or damp while kneeling on it.
"I will take my grandfather and others back to Beijing in March next year. I will ask the villagers to help sweep the graves here." Lu Shiyi said while kneeling in front of the tombstone.
Lu Shiyi lit pieces of paper money in the porcelain basin in front of the tombstone.
Su Jin knelt beside him, without saying a word, silently accompanying him.
"Wife, let's go back." After burning the paper money prepared by his grandmother, Lu Shiyi hurriedly put Hanhan on the seat. Su Jin sat in the sled at the back, and the family of three went home together.
As they approached the farm gate, it started snowing again. Su Jin looked at him in surprise. Those who had just gone to burn paper must have left traces along the way. Unless it snowed, it would be easy to find the problem.
"Mr. Wei and Mr. Song both said that it will snow in the next two days. If we hold the sacrifice in advance, we will disappear without a trace!" Lu Shiyi listened to Su Jin's words and walked home hand in hand.
Two German Shepherds were pulling a sled on the farm, and Hanhan was sitting on a dog-back chair.
Many sisters-in-law looked at the family of three and thought that Su Jin's idea was indeed very good.
"Ministry Lu, can you give me the blueprint of the chair on the German Shepherd's back?" Several sisters-in-law asked Lu Shiyi for the blueprint. They all had children of the same age as Yu Hanhan.
Among these sisters-in-law, one gave birth to a daughter. This girl had 9 brothers when she was born. In the eyes of the adults, this girl was a treasure in their hands.
"Sisters-in-law, I will ask Zong Li to deliver it later. I will give one to each family." Lu Shiyi looked at Hanhan's red cheeks from the cold and assured the sisters-in-law.
After the family of three returned home, Du Ruo stepped forward to take Hanhan. If they were not going back next year, Lu Bairen would not want Hanhan to go to the cemetery too early.
"Ayi, after the Chinese New Year this year, you and the political commissar will begin handing over your responsibilities," Lu Bairen reminded Lu Shiyi, "it's best to hand it over to Wu Bu first."
Lu Shiyi looked at Lu Bairen in surprise: "Grandpa, Wu Bu will retire in two years. Shouldn't he hand over the power to the people below him and the political commissar?"
"Xiao Jin, what is your relationship with their families?" Lu Bairen asked an irrelevant question.
Su Jin was stunned for a moment, then turned to the two of them and said, "My relationship with them is pretty good. They are both ambitious. One of them quit her job in the county government to join the army, and the other resigned from high school and joined the farm with the army."
"The two family members are so ambitious. What do you think of their husbands?" Lu Bairen asked, staring at Lu Shiyi.
Lu Shiyi fell silent. What Lu Bairen said was right. According to the current situation, if the two ambitious people became the top leader and the political commissar, they would be able to protect the entire military region.
"Mr. Lu, Elder, we, my husband and I, are here to see you!" Lin Zitao and Yun Feng came to visit with New Year gifts.
When Lu Shiyi heard Lin Zitao's voice, he hurriedly opened the door and welcomed the two in.
"Xiao Jin, take these to the kitchen!" Lu Shiyi asked Su Jin to accompany Yun Feng to the kitchen and stay away for a while.
Su Jin led Yun Feng into the kitchen, and Yun Feng placed the prepared bacon on the table.
"Deputy Minister Li and Political Commissar Hu brought their wives to my house, intending to take over the work of Minister Lu and Old Lin." Yun Feng heard the news brought back by Lin Zitao, "We are planning to return to the capital after the Chinese New Year. I thought it would be a good time to send the two brothers to the junior high school in the military district."
"Sister-in-law, do you think it's appropriate for the two brothers to go to school?" Su Jin looked at Yun Feng and asked.
Yun Feng whispered to Su Jin, "Old Lin said that the junior high and high schools that are enrolled are all for children from the nearby compounds. Those messy kids from outside can't get in at all."
With Lin Zitao's assurance, Yun Feng felt relieved. Under Su Jin's guidance, Lin Lei and Lin Yan were much better than before.
"Sister-in-law, are we going to meet them in the next two days?" Su Jin didn't know how to hand over the affairs of the family compound. Liu Yunshan and Yunfeng were basically in charge of the affairs, and she had been doing the translation work all the time.
"Don't rush to meet them. Let's wait until a week before the last one leaves and then we can start the handover." Yun Feng told Su Jin, "The elders will gradually return to their previous jobs at the end of next year."
The imperial capital has begun to become turbulent. Lin Zitao belongs to the Lu family's faction. Lu's father is handling matters in the imperial capital. The elder and Mr. Hua contact each other by phone and remotely direct the changes in the imperial capital.
"Sister-in-law, Ayi asked me to remind you that the area around the farm is not very safe. You must keep an eye on Lin Lei and Lin Yan." Su Jin informed Yun Feng that some unfamiliar faces had entered the foot of the mountain recently and that a girl had gone missing from the village. "When the girl went missing, the villagers didn't report it to the police, nor did they even inform the village or clan to look for her."
Lu Shiyi set up a secret line on the mountain, and heard someone secretly discussing that they would only accept girls this time, and it would be better if they could accept boys.
