In late September, Chen Ke drove back to Construction Team 3 with Si Jingyu and Su Qingming, who had not been home for almost four years.
Su's mother, who was enjoying the cool air at the door, was shocked to see that the person getting off the car was her eldest son whom she had not seen for two years. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes. She ran over and hugged Su Qingming tightly, sobbing uncontrollably.
The tall and strong young man, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, reached out to hug his petite mother, like an adult hugging a child, truly demonstrating what it means to "you raised me when I was young, and I will take care of you when you are old."
Su Qingzhu stood at the door holding her younger brother's hand. She glanced at Si Jingyu who was smiling at her, turned back to look at her brother, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Little brother Su looked at his elder brother's long legs, then looked down at his own short legs, frowning in disgust. When will he grow up?
The warm moment between mother and son ended. Su's mother wiped away her tears and nodded embarrassedly to Si Jingyu.
Si Jingyu smiled back.
On the other side, Su Qingming tilted his head to look at the two kids, opened his arms, and blinked at them, as if to say, "Come over quickly and hug big brother."
Su Qingzhu chuckled, pulled his little brother over, and they all threw themselves into Su Qingming's arms, and the three of them started making a mess.
"elder brother!"
“Big Brother!”
"Hey, hey~!" Su Qingming rubbed their heads one by one, "Little sister is getting more and more beautiful, and little brother has grown a lot taller."
Little Brother Su curled his lips in dissatisfaction, saying it was not high enough.
He wants to grow taller and stronger than his older brother in the future, and he wants to protect his sister and mother!
Su Qingzhu pinched her brother's muscular arm and said, "It seems that he hasn't relaxed his training."
"That's right." His sister went to the military district every year, and every instructor was convinced by her. How could he, as her brother, fall too far behind?
After the family exchanged greetings, they turned to Si Jingyu.
Su Qingzhu walked over and asked the question on everyone's mind: "Why did you bring my brother back at this time?"
Her brother clearly said that he only took leave and came back during this year's Spring Festival.
Si Jingyu cleared his throat, straightened his expression, opened the car door, took out a bouquet of red roses and handed it over, then took out a jewelry box from his pocket, opened it, and knelt on one knee.
"Qingzhu, you are an indispensable existence in my life. Because of you, my world is no longer boring; because of you, my life is no longer incomplete.
"You said the sky is blue, the sea is beautiful, the mountains and rivers are vast, and the scenery is beautiful. So, would you like me to accompany you to watch the sunrise and sunset, the ebb and flow of the tide, the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and the thousands of mountains and rivers?
"Would you like me to hold your hand, listen to the silence of the countryside, and look at the prosperity of the world?
“Until my teeth fall out and my hair turns grey.
"Qingzhu, will you marry me?"
He really remembered what she said, and he knew very well what kind of life she wanted.
This man is worth her gamble.
Su Qingzhu held out her left hand with tears in her eyes and opened her lips slightly: "Okay."
When he heard that word, Si Jingyu's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. He took out the ring tremblingly but firmly and held his beloved woman tightly.
He stood up and hugged the little woman he loved so much, and whispered in her ear: "Thank you, and I love you."
Su Qingzhu replied in his heart - I love you too.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but have tears in their eyes.
Father Su, who arrived late, was confused by their appearance. What was going on?
Su's mother looked helplessly at the unromantic man she had chosen and whispered to him, "Nannan is getting married."
"Oh." Father Su responded subconsciously, then he came to his senses and yelled, "What? I don't agree."
Mother Su rolled her eyes at him and said, "Who cares whether you agree or not."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the kitchen. Her eldest son had returned, and she wanted to stew his favorite meat.
Su Qingzhu glanced at her father and pulled Si Jingyu into the house to find out what was going on.
The ignored Father Su stared, thinking, these two are really rebelling. Have they forgotten who is the head of the family?
This was outrageous. Su's father went to Su's mother to settle the score (to complain).
Su Qingming: “???”
Dad, don’t you see that I’m such a grown man standing here?
Am I still your favorite eldest son?
Little brother Su glanced at his pitiful elder brother, shook his head helplessly, and went up to hold his elder brother's hand, "Brother, what are you looking at? Let's go home."
Seeing that someone finally remembered him, Su Qingming was so moved that his eyes were filled with tears. His little brother is really the best.
Chen Ke and Tang Liu, who had not gotten out of the car, drove to the town after all the Su family members had entered the house.
The boss is getting married, and they are going shopping.
**
At the same time, the Zhang family of the construction brigade also welcomed Uncle Zhang and his family of three who had not returned for two years, and Uncle Zhang and his family of four who had not returned for ten years.
When Grandpa and Grandma Zhang saw their youngest son, they looked incredulous and worried that they were dreaming, and they didn't dare to blink.
Finally, they woke up and looked down when Zhang Guoan, who had never seen his grandparents, ran over with his short legs and hugged their thighs.
The 3-year-old raised his chubby white face and called out sweetly, "Grandpa, Grandma."
Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang smiled brightly and responded in unison: "Hey, Xiao An, be good."
Grandma Zhang squatted down and carefully reached out her hand to tentatively hug little Guoan.
The little guy was not shy at all. He threw himself into his grandmother's arms, hugged her neck, and gave her a kiss on her wrinkled face.
This heartwarming gesture made Grandma Zhang's eyes red.
Grandpa Zhang got jealous and came over to ask for a kiss, "Xiao An, grandpa wants a kiss too."
The little guy is already a master of keeping things in check at such a young age. He leaned forward and kissed his grandfather on the face.
