Aunt He's words startled the mother and daughter. They looked at each other and curiously looked at Aunt He who was speaking:
"Aunt, why haven't you heard of this before?"
"Yes, sister-in-law, why didn't I listen to you?"
"Hey~ It's not that I don't want to talk, but I don't have the chance. You know how busy I have been recently.
By the time I remembered, it was already settled. ”
Afraid that the mother and daughter might misunderstand, she leaned closer and whispered a few words in their ears. Only after she saw that they understood did she sit back on the ground.
So his dad is back?
But that doesn’t make sense. Isn’t her father’s mission to come back after the New Year?
Thinking of her past life, she blinked and looked at Aunt He again: "Aunt, is my dad in the army now?"
"Not here." Wang Xiangya shook her head.
"How can you say that my dad arranged what happened to Seventh Brother and his partner?" He Wanqing was also confused.
It's impossible that he knew about this and made arrangements before leaving!
"It was your second brother who called them and said there was a spot available there. He asked them if they had made up their mind. They said they wanted to go, and then your second brother and his friends asked your father's comrades to arrange it."
Second brother?
Yes, he is still in the recruit company with his cousin from my uncle's family.
"Then Seventh Brother and Eighth Brother must seize the opportunity and don't miss it like before."
Thinking of what happened before, the three of them shook their heads and laughed.
"Don't worry, this is their own request, otherwise they wouldn't have told us only after it was approved."
Thinking of what her youngest son said when he came back, she was almost scared to death, but she supported her son's choice, so she could only let things take their course.
Now I just hope that the two brothers, along with the other three and my brother-in-law, can be safe and sound over there!
"That's right~" She was overthinking it.
"Wanqing, come here."
Just as I was about to say a few words, someone in the field on the other side shouted that work points had begun to be recorded.
Seeing this, she handed the kettle full of mung bean soup to He's mother, took the work points book and left.
Wang Xiangya chatted with He's mother for a while before going back to work in the fields.
The weather was hot, and it got even hotter after the rain, but it accelerated the growth of weeds in the fields. It seemed that the weeds that had been hoed clean before were starting to pop up again.
Looking at the new sprouts in the field, He Wanqing looked up at the sky, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and sighed that farming is not easy.
I weeded a field of grass over and over again, and it always felt like I was going to weed it to death.
He looked at the person who had given up using the hoe and started pulling weeds in the field with his hands.
Watching their sweat soak their clothes and finally turn into sweat drops on the ground, then roll around like naughty yo-yos, I shook my head again in my heart.
Alas~
Even though sweat was dripping from my body, I knew that I had to split myself into eight petals and go to the fields to help the farmers water the fields.
It’s a pity that yesterday’s rain wasted all my efforts in being reasonable and persevering.
She walked over to the person who called her, recorded his work points for the morning, and then went to the next person.
He Wanqing, who had been running around since the first person she met, did not stop until the sun was overhead.
Seeing that she and the Xu family were the only ones left in the field, she clenched her teeth, thought about her body, and did not go forward, but turned around and went home.
Halfway through the walk, she saw her eldest nephew coming to find her.
"Aunt, grandpa asked you to go home for dinner today. Your uncle's brothers are here."
He Yuan thought of the unfamiliar faces at home, opened his mouth, and looked at her but still didn't say what was in his mind.
She said she forgot something? So that's it.
"Let's go, is your little grandma's meal ready?"
Thinking of He's mother and others who had returned home long ago, she shook her head again. No wonder her mother seemed to be hesitant to speak when she left. It turned out that she wanted to remind her of this.
"Aunt, there are a lot of people." After thinking about it, He Yuan finally said it.
many?
Aren't there three people?
"How many people?"
"Six."
"Six?" He Wanqing stopped and looked at her nephew. When she saw him nod, she was full of doubts.
She tried hard to recall the number of people Gu Cheng'an had mentioned at the time, and when she finally found out that it seemed to be three, she became even more confused.
He Wanqing had no idea that there were originally two, but Grandpa Gu was afraid that his granddaughter would be implicated by her aunt's family, so he packed them up together.
There are also Jiang Shi and Jiang Ming. They both came here together because their parents were transferred out of town and they were afraid that they would be implicated at home.
"I got it. Let's go!" She couldn't figure it out, so she decided to talk to the person first, and then she took He Yuan's hand and hurried to her parents' home.
On the way, she met a few old ladies who were watching the fun at the village entrance in the morning. She was teased by them. Even though she was very thick-skinned, He Wanqing blushed and hurried back to her parents' home.
"Mom, I'm back." The voice came into the yard before the person arrived.
Gu Chengshi and others who were talking to Grandpa He and others in the yard immediately stood up to greet them when they heard this.
The actions of the six people made Grandma He and Grandma Shen very satisfied.
The two were full of expectations for the elders of the Gu family whom they had never met and really hoped to meet them.
"Now that you're back, wash your hands and prepare to eat. Don't keep Chengshi and the others waiting for too long."
After putting the last dish on the plate, He's mother said to He Wanqing who had just entered the yard, and then carried the dish into the house.
"I understand." After saying that, he pulled He Yuan to wash his hands.
"Hello, sister-in-law. I'm Gu Chengshi. I'm the seventh child in my family. You can call me Chengshi or Laoqi."
"Hello, sister-in-law. My name is Gu Ya. I am the youngest in the Gu family. You can call me Xiao Ya."
"Hello, sister-in-law. I am from my eldest brother's aunt's family. My name is Wu Shuling, and I am also the youngest."
"Hello, cousin, I'm Jiang Sui from my third uncle's family. I'm the fourth child in the family. He's Jiang Ming, the fifth child, and the one next to me is Jiang Shi, the sixth child."
The two brothers named by Jiang Sui nodded and agreed: "Hello, cousin, I am Jiang Ming."
"Hello, cousin, I'm Jiang Shi."
The six people's self-introductions also made He Wanqing understand why there were more people.
"Hello, I'm Gu Wanqing. Don't stand in the yard. Let's go inside and eat. If you have anything to say, we can talk after dinner."
"good!"
The six people nodded at the same time, and after she took a step, they turned around and followed her into the house, with respect engraved in their bones.
Seeing this, the elders in the room were satisfied and looked forward to interacting with Elder Gu Jiang.
Only Grandma Shen had a sad look on her face, she already knew about the Su family, and she knew that they looked down on their granddaughter.
Thinking of this, the old lady narrowed her eyes slightly and started to make some plans in her mind.
Grandma He, who was standing next to her, looked at her and, having grown up with her, she instantly understood that her old bestie was going to cause trouble.
Thinking about what she had said before about the Su family affairs, and how the Su family had not said a word so far, she suddenly felt that she had to be there too when things got bad.
The two old ladies didn't need to say anything. With just a glance, they understood each other's thoughts instantly. With another glance, they settled their thoughts and waited for the right time to act.
