When they got home, the old couple didn't have time to look at their son and daughter-in-law's home.
It was already a very long train ride, and after getting off the train it took another few hours by car to get to the army.
I'm not young anymore, and although I usually exercise, I'm still old after all. After eating and drinking, I just want to rest. I can talk about anything after I've rested.
Everything in the room was ready, even a thermos filled with hot water was placed on the table next to the bed so I could drink it when I was thirsty at night.
After washing up, the old couple entered the room and were touched by their daughter-in-law's thoughtfulness. She knew that everything was prepared properly.
The two of them lay on the kang and did not fall asleep for a while, but instead chatted about family matters.
"I didn't expect that the wife Xiaobei found himself was indeed better than the one introduced to him by others.
The couple handled both work and family life well, but Xiaoxue was wronged as she had an excellent education and a promising job.
On the contrary, after getting married and having children, she has made a lot of progress. Now she has come all the way to the northwest, far away from her parents."
Luan Huiying also has her own career, and she did not give up her job even though she was afraid of Gu Qingbei.
She had witnessed too many family ethics in the hospital, and even more so, the indifference between couples.
So she knew better that women must have their own jobs. Even if they couldn't support themselves, at least they wouldn't have to rely on others to live.
Since she married a man without a daughter-in-law, she must put her children and family first.
If a man's work is important, does that mean a woman's career is unimportant? Just because a woman has to bear children, does that mean she should sacrifice herself for the sake of the family?
If anyone dared to say such words in front of her, she would definitely scold that person so badly that his parents wouldn't even recognize him.
Seeing his wife like this, Gu Zhenhai didn't dare to say anything and could only deal with it.
He was too lazy to care about his son and his wife's affairs. Such matters could only be decided by the couple themselves. It would not be good for them to interfere too much.
But the attitude that should be expressed is still necessary.
So the next day, Gu Zhenhai asked about Jiang Mengxue's job transfer.
As for the matter of bringing calligraphy, if Jiang Mengxue wants to work, it won't be a problem for her to arrange it since she is a doctor.
The main reason was that they were worried that no one would take care of the calligraphy, so the old couple suggested that the calligraphy could be sent to them and then taken back when Gu Zhenjiang and Li Cuiying from their hometown came.
"There's no rush to arrange the work, Xiaoxue and I have already agreed to talk about it later.
She and Mobao have only just arrived in the Northwest and haven't adapted to the climate here yet. Mobao can't live without her now."
Gu Zhenjiang nodded and said nothing more. It was enough for the couple to understand what was going on.
He was also worried that his son was stupid and only wanted his wife to take care of the housework and raise the children, so he did not agree with Jiang Mengxue going to work.
Since it wasn't a chance encounter, he didn't care.
When Gu Qingbei is free during the day, he will take them out for a walk. When he is not free, he will ask Guan Dapeng to accompany them.
Gu Zhenhai arrived at the farming area in the army today.
Although the troops will receive food and supplies from above, they will also be self-sufficient when in Yuyao.
Many soldiers were even allocated a piece of land to grow vegetables or something.
Each group will divide the land into certain areas and then distribute them to the lower levels.
When the soldiers are not on missions or training, they go to farm, which can be considered a form of exercise.
"How are the arrangements for the family members? Have they also been allocated land?"
Gu Zhenhai naturally knew the problems that would arise after the family compound was built, so he asked this question.
Gu Qingbei replied: "Yes, in addition to some private plots for growing vegetables, there are also allocated plots for growing grain.
But after all, they were not born and raised here, and they were not familiar with how to take care of the land here, so they could only take it slowly.
However, these are all voluntary. If they are willing to plant, we will give them land and we will also find special people to teach them how to deal with the local climate conditions.
There's nothing we can do about those who don't want to. Officers' allowances are quite high anyway, so there won't be families with particularly difficult circumstances."
If the family is already in financial difficulty and is unwilling to work hard to earn more, then they can't help much. As I said before, it all depends on your own will.
Guzheng Ai was just as he said these past two days. This was a private trip, not related to work matters, so he didn't ask about the things here.
Because both of them were busy with work, they only stayed for three or four days before preparing to leave.
The night before, Luan Huiying held Mo Bao tightly and refused to let go.
Thinking that I won’t be able to see my precious grandson for at least several months before the New Year, I feel sad and want to cry.
She didn't have this feeling when she left Gu Qingbei at a fellow villager's house when he was still young.
I think it’s pretty good. Finally I don’t have to take care of naughty kids.
As soon as Gu Qingbei could walk as a child, he started giving her a headache. She almost tied herself with a rope for fear that he would run away.
He is nothing like my eldest grandson who is so well-behaved, soft and sweet.
So Mobao will sleep with his grandparents tonight.
He now only needs to drink milk once at night and change his diaper in the middle.
Luan Huiying knows how to take care of children. She took care of Gu Qingbei for several years when he was a child.
The next morning, Jiang Mengxue got up early and cooked two pots of dumplings.
There are many people eating today, and several guards also come to my house to eat. After eating, they have to rush to the train station.
When Luan Huiying got up in the morning, she saw the dumplings on the tray and thought Jiang Mengxue had made them before dawn.
I was upset that I got up too late, otherwise I would have been able to help.
But in fact, these dumplings were handmade dumplings that Jiang Mengxue took out from the space. She made them and put them in the space when she was free.
Gu Zhenhai's guards didn't expect that they would get their own share of dumplings.
They woke up in the morning and prepared to go to the cafeteria to have breakfast, otherwise it would be almost noon when they arrived at the train station, and they would have no time to eat.
As a result, Gu Qingbei came early in the morning and asked a few people to go to his house for dinner.
The dumplings are filled with plenty of fillings and they taste so greasy and delicious.
Two pots of dumplings were not enough, so two more pots were cooked and everyone was full.
There was an empty seat in the car, so Jiang Mengxue followed them and they could go shopping in the city at noon.
It is really inconvenient to buy things when living in a staff housing complex.
To go to the city, you can only take the logistics department's truck. Not only are there many people crowded together, but there are also piles of things, which is really not very comfortable.
So Jiang Mengxue has never taken a bus, but it would be nice if there was a bus here.
But this place is in the wilderness, there are not many villages, and it is far away from the commune, so it is impossible to drive here.
The road was still very bad and bumpy along the way, and Jiang Mengxue even wanted to vomit.
Fortunately, she took motion sickness medicine before getting on the bus, so she felt a little better.
It took more than three hours to get to the train station, and the tickets were booked the same day I got off the train.
Mo Bao seemed to know that his grandparents were leaving, so he kept lying in Gu Zhenhai's arms and didn't want to get down.
