Chapter 103 Family Courtyard
He got up and went to the bathroom on the first floor to wash up.
When He Yan came out again, He Jingqi was already sitting on the sofa, reading a newspaper.
"Take care of Xiao Jiang on the way. When you get to Yun Province, live a good life together and be considerate of Xiao Jiang. If Xiao Jiang is wronged, your mother and I will come over and break your legs right away."
Hearing what He Jingqi said, He Yan assured him, "Dad, don't worry. You will never have the chance to see me treat Yingying badly in this life."
"I married Yingying because I love her and want to treat her well for the rest of my life, so I won't treat her badly."
He Jingqi looked at him with admiration, "Not bad, Comrade He Xiaobei, you have grown up."
When the conversation between the father and son ended, Lin Guifang and Jiang Yingying also came down from upstairs. For today's breakfast, Aunt Qin used all her skills to make it rich, exquisite, and tasty.
She only hoped that this meal could keep Jiang Yingying and He Yan hungry, so that when she returned to Yun Province, they would always remember her cooking skills and could come home more often.
At the dinner table today, He Yan had no chance to show off. The two female elders took great care of Jiang Yingying, and He Ping and He An also showed off everywhere.
He Yan was just about to ask them to at least give him a chance to take care of his wife when he saw a boiled egg in the bowl.
He looked up and saw He Jingqi's unnatural expression. He got goosebumps all over his body. Of course, he felt touched too.
He Jingqi and Lin Guifang both took leave in the morning. After breakfast, Lin Guifang and Aunt Qin helped Jiang Yingying and others pack their bags, and then they drove Jiang Yingying and He Yan to the train station.
He Jingqi borrowed the car and guards from Mr. Lin next door for a whole morning and drove two cars. One was driven by Uncle Wang, which carried He Jingqi, He Yan, and many bags of stuff.
The other car was driven by Lin's bodyguard Xiao Chen. He Ping, He An, Aunt Qin, Lin Guifang and Jiang Yingying were all in this car.
When they arrived at the train station, Uncle Wang and Xiao Chen helped He Yan carry his things into the carriage, while Lin Guifang and the others held Jiang Yingying's hand, reluctant to let her go.
The radio was urging them, and no matter how reluctant Lin Guifang and the others were, they could only watch Jiang Yingying and the others get on the bus.
Back in the soft sleeper car, Uncle Wang and Xiao Chen completed the task of guarding the things. After whispering goodbye to them, they also got off the train.
The train roared and started moving, carrying away the people that countless people missed and taking their longing to faraway places.
He Jingqi looked at Lin Guifang's reluctant eyes and said, "When we have time, let's go see the children together."
Lin Guifang glanced at him. "I don't know how long I'll have to wait until you're free," she said. "It's better for me to wait until I retire and go out with Xiao Qin to see the world."
He Jingqi pursed his lips, feeling a little guilty, and did not respond to his wife's words.
When we came, both cars were full, but when we left, there was only one car left.
It was also at this time that He Jingqi felt lost. Looking at the depressed look of his old wife beside him, he patted the back of her hand gently.
Lin Guifang made a decision. She said, "Old He, what do you think about me retiring in a few years?"
"Okay, I have no objection to your decision." He Jingqi said, "You have worked hard for so many years, you can retire now. It's okay even if you retire now. My money is enough for our family."
"If it's not enough, I'll retire a few years later and earn more money for groceries."
Lin Guifang glanced at He Jingqi and said, "Let's talk about it later. Let's get through this year first. I think the new doctors in this hospital are too impatient and I'm not too sure about them."
"You can do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Whatever happens at home is up to you. I will take care of the family and the children and grandchildren."
On the train, Jiang Yingying was reluctant to leave Lin Guifang, Aunt Qin, and the two little ones He Ping and He An.
During the past few months in Beijing, their feelings for each other had already developed, and Lin Guifang and Aunt Qin treated her so well, and they treated her even better after marriage, treating Jiang Yingying more than just her own daughter.
People are all made of flesh and blood. After spending several months together, they are now separated and she doesn’t know when they will see each other again. Jiang Yingying feels extremely reluctant to leave.
He Yan put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.
"Okay, don't be sad. We can see each other when we come back from vacation. We can still contact each other by phone or letter."
"Your words are exactly like those used to coax a child."
Transportation and communication are so inconvenient these days, how can we get in touch so easily? Even if we can, it doesn’t mean we have nothing to do in our lives and we have to answer the phone every day.
Not to mention anything else, just look at the hard-working old couple Lin Guifang and He Jingqi. You never know that you might not find them at home when you call them.
Jiang Yingying reached out to wipe the corners of her eyes and pushed He Yan.
"Okay, let go, let go. Where's my package? I want to read Selected Works of Mao Zedong."
Days on the train, especially when taking long-distance trains, are always boring, long and unbearable. Jiang Yingying had already prepared all kinds of popular and professional books, or picture books, as well as cakes, chess and cards to pass the time.
From the first day to the third day, and until they were about to get off the train, no one else got on their carriage except the two of them.
Soft sleeper cars are not very popular these days. Besides being expensive, they are also reserved for high-end travelers.
On the way back, with He Yan around, Jiang Yingying felt okay and not too miserable. But in fact, she didn't feel that uncomfortable the last time she went to Beijing. At that time, she was worried about He Yan's situation, and the tiredness and hardship of the journey were secondary.
On the day we arrived in Yunnan Province, the train arrived at three o'clock in the afternoon. As soon as we got out of the station, Yu Hongbing came to meet us.
"He Tuan! Sister-in-law!"
Seeing the two of them, Yu Hongbing's eyes suddenly became red, "He Tuan, sister-in-law, you're back!"
He quickly reached out to help He Yan carry the things. He Yan was not polite and gave him most of the things to carry.
"Xiao Yu, are you fully healed?" He Yan asked.
"It was fine in the past two months, He Tuan, we all missed you so much, it's great to have you back!"
As he spoke, Yu Hongbing felt like he was about to cry.
He Yan had his help, so he freed one hand and patted his shoulder. Yu Hongbing almost dropped what he was holding when he was hit by him.
"Okay, I'll be back with the team tomorrow. We'll see each other every day from now on. Don't miss me."
Yu Hongbing suddenly couldn't cry anymore, because as He Yan said this, he suddenly remembered his devilish training.
He tried to control his wandering thoughts and just did his job as a pick-up person.
"He Tuan, sister-in-law, I will take you back to your family compound first. Your house has been approved."
