Chapter 257 Xiao Qiao, I'm back...



Chapter 257 Xiao Qiao, I'm back...

Qiao Zhiping had a lot of mixed thoughts in his mind, and from time to time he would look at Lu Jianchuan with complicated eyes.

Even though Lu Jianchuan looks like nothing happened at the moment, he actually has his own worries in his heart.

Lu Jianchuan roughly guessed what his future uncle was thinking.

In fact, he knew that his uncle said that day only out of politeness.

But at that moment, Lu Jianchuan's mind was completely out of control.

Counting it up, he hadn't seen Xiao Qiao for 29 days. With such an opportunity in front of him, it was really hard for Lu Jianchuan to say no.

So he said those words without any hesitation and with a thick face.

Now, as they were getting closer and closer to Tongcheng, Lu Jianchuan became nervous and his heartbeat began to accelerate.

I don’t know if his sudden visit will scare Xiao Qiao.

After all, he didn't report this matter in advance...

Here, the conversation continues.

When Qiao Zhiyi saw the looks in everyone's eyes, he guessed what they wanted to ask.

"Don't look at me, I don't know anything."

"The fourth brother only said these two sentences. Before I could ask him anything, he hung up the phone because he was in a hurry to catch the bus."

After Qiao Zhiyi explained the situation, he looked at his parents again.

"By the way, where are you guys going?"

Old Mrs. Qiao was feeling very upset at the moment. She glanced at the time and it was almost nine o'clock.

The provincial capital is only a hundred kilometers away from here, which means they can get home around noon.

Where can they go at this time?

Can't go anywhere.

The key point is that what the fourth brother did was too sudden.

Mr. Qiao glanced at his wife and sighed.

"Don't worry about how the fourth brother brought this child back."

"Now that Xiao Lu is here, as Qiao Qiao's 'family', we can't be careless with the etiquette."

Wang Xiaofei came back to his senses and said, "Yes, Mom, it's good that you're here. We can meet in advance, and we can feel more at ease."

"I guess Zhiping also thought so."

After hearing what everyone said, Mrs. Qiao felt much better.

I thought about it and realized that there were still more than ten eggs at home, and the pork I bought before the New Year had not been eaten up, so there should be about two or three pounds left.

The pig's trotters that the second son's wife brought have not been touched, and there is still one fish left. If we stir-fry some vegetarian dishes, these will be enough to eat.

When they got home, Mrs. Qiao thought about it and decided to call Mr. Qiao over.

Let him kill the last big rooster left in the house.

Nowadays, as long as a son-in-law comes to the family, no matter whether the family is rich or poor, everyone will do their best to entertain him.

This was the first time that Lu Jianchuan, the future grandson-in-law, came to visit, so Mrs. Qiao still valued him very much.

But when Lu Jianchuan came, the neighbors couldn't help but ask a few questions when they saw him.

As for how to introduce it, that is up to Lin Siqiao to decide.

"Qiao Qiao, we haven't even mentioned your relationship in the village yet."

"Look, Xiao Lu will be here soon. If someone asks about it, how will we introduce him?"

Although the story of Lin Siqiao and Lu Jianchuan was reported in the newspapers, few people in the village read the newspapers.

What Mrs. Qiao meant was that if she had no objection, she could tell others that this was her partner.

This will also prevent anyone from targeting their Qiao Qiao in the future.

If she wants to think about it again, then Mrs. Qiao will tell others that Xiao Lu is Lao Si's comrade-in-arms in the army.

"Grandma, just tell me directly." Lin Siqiao felt that there was nothing to hide.

"Okay, I'll listen to you then."

Old Mrs. Qiao nodded and asked Lu Jianchuan if he liked sweet dishes.

She heard that people in Shanghai like to add sugar when cooking, using it like salt.

"Grandma, just cook it normally. He's not picky about food, and he doesn't really like to eat anything too sweet."

After listening to this, Mrs. Qiao nodded, and soon He Chunfang, who had received the news, also rushed back.

Both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law are experienced cooks and don't need Lin Siqiao's help at all.

On the other side, after several hours of bumpy ride, Qiao Zhiping and Lu Jianchuan finally arrived at the Xiangyang Brigade.

Both of them were carrying a lot of things, especially Lu Jianchuan.

After deciding to come to Tongcheng, Lu Jianchuan called home that same day.

When Mother Lu found out that the brat was fine and was planning to go to Siqiao's grandparents' house, she felt excited but also worried.

He was afraid that his son would be impolite the first time he visited him.

Mother Lu just kept telling him what to buy, and this lasted for quite a while.

Lu Jianchuan wrote down what his mother said, and then went to see his second uncle.

He was in a hurry to go on this mission and didn't have much money with him, especially no bills.

Both the uncle and nephew are straightforward people. If the nephew asks for help, they will definitely help.

But his situation is not much better. Who usually carries these things when going on a mission?

Uncle Lu had no choice but to ask his old comrades for help to collect some tickets. He did manage to collect some tickets, but they were local tickets and could not be used outside the place.

And most of them were food stamps.

At this time, it was good enough to have a ticket, and Lu Jianchuan was not picky.

Before leaving, Lu Jianchuan first went to the grain store to carry a bag of rice, and then went to the department store to buy cakes, candies, tea, and liquor.

He also bought two packs of high-calcium milk powder, which is hard to buy on the market. This is the best gift for the elderly.

There are many kinds of fruits in the south. Knowing that Lin Siqiao likes to eat them, Lu Jianchuan specially picked some for her.

So, when Lu Jianchuan met Qiao Zhiping at the train station carrying these things, Qiao Zhiping was dumbfounded.

It was lunch time now. As long as the weather was not too cold, the villagers would sit outside the gate with their bowls in hand and eat, so they could chat while eating.

How could the villagers not be curious when they saw Qiao Zhiping coming back with a stranger?

"Zhiping, whose child is this boy?"

"Look so handsome!"

Qiao Zhiping hesitated for a while, and when he was thinking about what to do next, he saw Lu Jianchuan striding past him.

He was so fast that before Qiao Zhiping could even open his mouth, the man had already walked more than ten meters away.

When that familiar figure appeared in his sight, there was no room for anything else in Lu Jianchuan's eyes.

The two just stood there, staring at each other blankly.

There was no need to say anything more, she understood his difficulties and he understood her worries.

After not seeing each other for a month, Lu Jianchuan had lost a lot of weight and there were many small wounds on his cheeks.

Lin Siqiao felt a little sad after seeing this.

She remembered that on the day he left, he said, "Wait for me to come back." Now, she has waited for him.

After a while, Lu Jianchuan said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Qiao, I'm back..."
