The four of them sat together for a meal. Zhou Zhichuan and Gu Juan had a pleasant conversation and left their contact information with each other before leaving.
Gu Juan went to the department store to buy a toy car for Xiao Tangyuan, and drove Gu Zhinian home. From a distance, he saw the army gate. Gu Zhinian felt a sense of familiarity and pointed at the gate excitedly.
"Right there! Bro! We're home!"
Gu Juan parked his car at the door, Yun Muye and his comrades just came out. Gu Zhinian couldn't wait to open the door and get out. After Gu Juan got out, she had already rushed over.
"Makino! Husband! I'm back!"
Yun Muye turned around and saw Gu Zhinian rushing towards him like a little firecracker, hugging his neck tightly. Yun Muye smiled and held him in his arms, his voice as gentle as ever.
"You're back."
Gu Zhinian hugged him tightly, her eyes were red and she almost cried.
"Makino, I miss you so much."
Yun Muye also missed her. In the past three months, every night he would take out her photo and put it next to his pillow, looking at the photo and meeting her in his dreams.
Gu Juan came over carrying Gu Zhinian's luggage, and Yun Muye's comrades reminded him,
"Captain Yun, someone's here."
Yun Muye raised his eyes to look at Gu Juan, his body stiffened. The face of the man opposite him was 90% similar to that of his little Tangyuan. He knew in his heart that this man should be his wife's brother. He loosened his hand, let go of Gu Zhinian, walked over and stretched out his hand.
"Hello, I'm Yun Muye, Gu Zhinian's husband."
Gu Juan smiled politely and extended his hand to shake his hand.
"Hello, I'm Gu Juan, Gu Zhinian's biological brother."
The two equally matched men smiled at each other and let go of each other's hands. Gu Zhinian stepped forward and took Yun Muye's hand affectionately.
"Brother, we are home now. Come with me and see Xiao Tangyuan, who is also home."
"Okay." Gu Juan carried the suitcase in one hand and the toy car in the other.
"lead the way."
Yun Muye and Gu Juan talked as they walked. Yun Muye's dry big hands wrapped around her soft little hands, and Gu Zhinian's little hands restlessly scratched the thin calluses on his hands.
As soon as Yun Muye opened the door, little Tangyuan ran over happily, stood on tiptoe to open the door, raised his head, and looked over with his big cute eyes.
"dad!"
Gu Zhinian hid behind Yun Muye. When he heard the babyish voice, he could no longer control himself. He opened his arms and hugged the little Tangyuan while crying. He lowered his head and kept kissing his head.
"Baby, mommy is back! My baby, mommy missed you so much!"
Little Tangyuan stared at his mother blankly, his nose felt sore, tears could not stop flowing down, he tilted his head back and cried loudly,
"Mom! Wuu ...
Little Tangyuan cried feeling very aggrieved. He hadn't seen his mother for several months and he thought his mother didn't want him anymore. Although his grandmother and father repeatedly assured him that his mother would come back, he was still very scared and aggrieved, crying every night for his mother.
When Gu Zhinian thought about how she had abandoned her little Tangyuan for a few months and then disappeared, leaving her without a mother, her heart felt like it was being torn apart, and she felt suffocated by the pain.
"I'm sorry, baby. Mommy is sorry for you. I'm sorry."
Li Yuling heard the baby crying and ran over from the kitchen anxiously.
"What's wrong! What's wrong!"
Li Yuling saw Gu Zhinian and Xiao Tangyuan hugging each other and crying, and she also shed tears of distress. The child missed his mother, and the mother also missed her child. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
"Come in quickly! What are you all doing standing outside the door? You're making fun of yourself!"
Yun Muye held Gu Zhinian and his mother in his arms and coaxed them softly.
"Don't cry, little Tangyuan, mommy is back, you can't cry anymore."
Little Tangyuan was sobbing and couldn't stop, his eyes were red and swollen from crying. Gu Zhinian wiped away her tears and then wiped her son's tears, mumbling in his voice.
"Be good, baby, don't cry. Mommy will never leave you again!"
Yun Muye embraced the mother and son into the house, and Gu Juan also walked in.
"Mom, this is Gu Juan, Zhinian's brother."
Li Yuling took off her apron, wiped her hands, and greeted him with a smile. "Hello, please sit down. I'll get you a cup of tea."
Gu Juan politely stopped her, "No need, auntie, please sit down and stop busying yourself."
"It's okay, it'll be quick, just sit down and chat with Makino!"
Li Yuling happily walked into the kitchen and started busying herself. Yun Muye sat on the sofa and chatted with Gu Juan. Gu Zhinian sat aside, holding his baby son tightly in his arms. Neither of them spoke, and they sat quietly.
Gu Juan looked at the beautiful child in Gu Zhinian's arms, and a natural sense of intimacy surged in his heart. Gu Juan walked over, squatted on one knee on the ground, and stroked the child's soft hair with his big hands. He looked very much like their Gu family. It would be better to say that he looked like him rather than Gu Zhinian.
Little Tangyuan turned around and looked at him curiously, "Who are you?"
Gu Juan said in a gentle tone:
"Baby, I'm your uncle. Look, we look alike, we have the same eyes."
Little Tangyuan blinked his big eyes, tilted his head, stretched out his finger and poked his handsome face.
"What is uncle?"
Gu Juan smiled gently and explained slowly, "Aside from your parents, your uncle is the one who loves you the most."
Gu Juan took the big toy car and said, "This is a gift from your uncle. I didn't know what you like, so I chose a toy car. Next time, I'll take you to the mall and I'll buy you whatever you want, okay?"
Little Tangyuan looked at the toy car curiously. Gu Juan chuckled and opened the package, revealing a green tank. Gu Juan put the toy car on the ground and slid it a few times. As soon as he let go, the toy car ran out by itself. Little Tangyuan jumped out of his mother's arms and ran to chase the tank.
Li Yuling brought a cup of tea and placed it on the table. "Brother Zhinian, come and have some tea."
"Thank you, auntie! Auntie, you can just call me Gu Juan." Gu Juan smiled slightly, sat on the sofa, took the tea and took a sip.
Li Yuling was very hospitable. "Gu Juan, stay for dinner tonight. We'll treat you well."
"Then I'd rather obey than be disrespectful. Thank you, auntie."
Gu Juan wanted to learn more about his sister's in-laws and agreed to stay for dinner. Li Yuling smiled and said:
"You're welcome!"
There was no food at home, so Li Yuling found an excuse to go out and buy some vegetables and meat. As soon as she came downstairs, she was stopped by a group of women.
"Aunt Li, who was that man who just went up with your daughter-in-law? His aura was so scary that we all hid aside and didn't dare to say a word."
Li Yuling smiled and said, “My daughter-in-law’s brother is here, I’m going out to buy food!”
"Oh! It's my brother!"
Someone else asked, "What kind of family is your daughter-in-law's family from? This brother looks extraordinary, like a nobleman in a movie."
"Of course not! I thought he was a young master from an ancient noble family!"
Li Yuling waved her hand and hurried out, "I don't want to chat with you anymore, I have to go buy groceries!"
