After finishing the work, Sheng Zexi came in with a basin of hot water and a towel on his shoulders.
"I guess you're awake now, come wash up and have breakfast."
"Okay." Gu Jianing took the hot towel rolled by Sheng Zexi and started to wash.
For this breakfast, all members of the Gu family were present. It was a rare sight to be together, but the atmosphere was a little quiet. There was reluctance in everyone's eyes.
No matter how reluctant you are, you still have to leave when the time comes.
Sheng Zexi put all the bags, large and small, prepared by Gu's family into the jeep.
"Mom and Dad, brothers and sisters-in-law, please take care of yourselves." With red eyes, Gu Jianing hugged and said goodbye to his family members one by one.
"Go, go, and be nice to Xi-boy."
Through misty tears, Gu Jianing finally got into the car. The door closed slowly and Sheng Zexi started the car.
The car moved forward slowly.
"My Ningning..." Yao Chunhua subconsciously chased after him, and Old Man Gu followed behind her, both of them with tears streaming down their faces.
Yao Chunhua's suppressed emotions suddenly burst out, and she burst into tears, "Ningning has never left us. I, I am worried about her."
A mother worries when her son travels far away.
Yao Chunhua is worried.
I was worried that she was in such a faraway place, not having enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear, and not being able to take care of herself.
She was worried that Ningning was being bullied in places where she couldn't see, but she was not by her side, so how could she stand up for her?
"Damn it, Ning Ning."
Gu Yunting and others couldn't hold back their tears.
"Okay, old lady, don't cry. Xi is a good man and he will take good care of Ningning." Old Man Gu comforted his wife, but he felt bad too.
But no matter how good her husband is to her, can he be as good to her as her parents?
Every child is the apple of their parents’ eyes. They cannot let go of them. It hurts and hurts their hearts.
In the jeep, Gu Jianing turned around, looked back through the window, and saw his parents chasing after him and crying.
She couldn't hold back her tears.
"Father and mother..."
Gu Jianing tried desperately to control the urge to stop the car and turn around.
I can only say silently in my heart: Dad, Mom, Brother, and Sister-in-law, you must be well, and I will be well with Brother Xi too.
Sheng Zexi felt very distressed when he saw his young wife crying.
"How about I turn around and go back, and you and your parents can talk to them again..."
Gu Jianing shook his head. The figures of his family had long gone away, and their images were blurred by his tears.
She choked up and said, "I'm fine, I just can't bear to leave. Let's go. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't want to leave."
After saying this, she stared at Sheng Zexi with red eyes.
This time it was Sheng Zexi's turn to cry, he had no choice but to leave.
After driving for a while, Sheng Zexi stopped the car, hugged Gu Jianing and comforted him gently. Gu Jianing knew that he would definitely join the army, but he just couldn't bear to leave his family for the time being.
"Don't cry, or you won't be pretty anymore."
Gu Jianing stopped crying immediately and glared at him fiercely.
"Okay, okay, I was just kidding. You look the best even when you cry."
Sheng Zexi didn't say this nonsense. It was his little wife crying with tears in her eyes that made him feel so distressed.
Gu Jianing finally stopped crying and the car started again.
Sheng Zexi felt a little amused when he saw his wife, who had been quiet for a while and then picked up the cosmetics to touch up her makeup.
But it's better than crying.
After Sheng Zexi took Gu Jianing away, a car from Beijing also came to pick up Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang.
As for Grandpa Sang, at the National Weapons Research Institute in Beijing, he has never been on leave for such a long time. Grandpa Sang is an important scientific researcher in their weapons research institute, and the current project cannot be carried out without him.
Here, when Sheng Zexi was in the city, he picked up another person in his car.
The man's name is Zhou Yu. He was Sheng Zexi's former comrade-in-arms. However, he was injured on the battlefield and retired. He was assigned to be the director of a department store in the city.
Originally, if Sheng Zexi hadn't helped him during that mission, he would not have simply been injured and had to change his career, but would have died directly.
Therefore, he was very grateful to Sheng Zexi.
The two also became good brothers.
And this jeep was borrowed by Sheng Zexi and Zhou Yu.
The army always eliminates some old cars. This car was bought by Zhou Yu and then modified.
This time, Sheng Zexi came here, and when Zhou Yu heard that he needed a jeep, he lent it to him without saying a word.
Now, Sheng Zexi is going to take Gu Jianing with him by train to join the army, so it is time for the jeep to be returned to its original owner.
When they arrived at the train station, they took a car and Zhou Yu drove the jeep back.
Gu Jianing had an impression of Zhou Yu and had attended their wedding banquet yesterday.
Soon, the car arrived at the train station.
There were a lot of people in the train station and the air was a little hazy. Gu Jianing frowned slightly.
He pulled the red towel up, covering most of his face.
Sheng Zexi carried all the large and small bags, especially the big or heavy items such as quilts and meat, on his back, while Gu Jianing carried the light items.
Zhou Yu also helped them carry their things and put them on the train.
Trains in this era did not have special waiting rooms, so Zhou Yu, who was seeing someone off, could also get on the train, as long as he got off in time before the train started.
"Ningning, walk behind me, hold my hand, and never let go," Sheng Zexi warned.
He had things in both hands and couldn't hold his little wife, otherwise he would definitely hold her to feel at ease.
At this time, even if I can't lead the child, I will still give him detailed instructions.
He walked in front to lead the way, Gu Jianing held the corner of his clothes and walked in the middle, and Zhou Yu followed behind, and the two of them protected Gu Jianing in the middle.
"Okay, I know." Gu Jianing agreed obediently.
The three of them got on the bus, which became even more crowded, with people and things everywhere.
Fortunately, there was the tall and strong Sheng Zexi leading the way in front, and Zhou Yu following behind, otherwise Gu Jianing would really not have dared to squeeze into the train alone.
In fact, Gu Jianing had ridden a green-skinned train in his previous life, but the physical sensation was indeed not good.
At this moment, Gu Jianing tried his best not to think about those things.
After passing through several carriages, they finally arrived at the berths they had purchased.
The upper and lower berths were theirs, but when they arrived, they were already occupied by three young men.
"Comrade, this is our position." Sheng Zexi said expressionlessly.
Perhaps it was because of the military uniform Sheng Zexi was wearing, or perhaps it was because of the defiant look on Sheng Zexi's face, but there was a hint of someone who was not to be trifled with written all over him.
So, the three guys immediately got up and left.
Sheng Zexi patted the upper and lower floors to make sure there was nothing dirty before letting Gu Jianing sit down.
After all, he knew that his wife was a delicate and clean person. This time, it was a bit unfair for her to follow him to the northwest to join the army and squeeze into this green train.
