Chapter 669 Mid-Autumn Festival
After more than two months of treatment, Qiu was finally able to recognize Wang Jiawei and the Wan family.
However, her condition still relapsed a little, but Wang Jiawei no longer had to stay at home with her all day.
During the past two months, Fubao not only treated Qiu, but also took care of her physical condition. As expected, good news came before the New Year.
The Mid-Autumn Festival in August is the time for family reunions.
Early in the morning, Grandma Wan asked the Second Wan to bring Qiu and the Third Wan's family back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Second brother, go to town and buy some vegetables for today's festival, and bring back some mooncakes. Pick up your third brother and his family, and ask them to stop working today and come back to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. Also, bring Jing'er and his wife. Our family was so quiet during the New Year this year, so this Mid-Autumn Festival is a good time for us to reunite."
"Okay, mom, I'll go right away."
Wan Laoer has lost a lot of weight in the past two months, but all the potatoes have been stored in the warehouse, and the workshop has doubled in size. This year, all the men, women, and children in the village have been recruited. It can be expected that every household in Shizi Village will be able to eat meat and vegetables this year. Even Guihua's younger brothers and sisters came to help, earning two cents a day to help wash potatoes.
As soon as Wan Laoer drove the carriage out, Wan Er's wife caught up with him. She told Wan Laoer to buy some food that the children liked to eat, and also to buy some more meat and vegetables to give to Guihua's brothers and sisters. These three children had no parents and relied on Guihua alone to raise them. It was so pitiful.
"Don't worry, I've been thinking about it. I know what the children like to eat, so I'll buy more. As for the village chief's family, although I've paid them wages, this year's work is twice as much as last year, and the village chief won't allow him to get processing money. I'm going to buy some meat and send it over."
Wan Laoer expressed his considerations.
"Okay, you can make the decision yourself." Wan Ersao doesn't interfere in outside affairs, and all decisions are made by Wan Laoer alone.
It was almost noon when Wan Laoer came back with Wan Laosan's family and Wang Jiawei and his wife.
This was the first time Qiu returned to Shizi Village after she recovered, and most people in Shizi Village did not recognize Qiu.
The Wan family's yard is extremely lively today. Old Mrs. Wan has been smiling from ear to ear since morning.
When people get old, they only desire the happiness of having children around them. Everything else is just a passing cloud to them, which cannot be brought with them when they are born and cannot be taken away when they die. Only hope is the motivation for them to live.
"Jing'er, you have suffered a lot, but everything will be fine in the future. Come on, let your second and third sisters-in-law prepare delicious food for you today, and we will have a good rest." Old Mrs. Wan took Qiu's hand with pity and went into the house.
Although Qiu's condition has improved, her heartache has not yet healed. Seeing the Wan family gathered together, she can't help feeling lost. Moreover, Wang Jiawei's family has fallen on hard times, and the two of them will probably have a hard time in the future.
"Mom." Qiu called out to Old Lady Wan with deep sadness, and tears started falling from her mouth.
"Oh, don't cry. Today is a happy day. It's a rare opportunity for our family to be together. You should be happy."
Old Mrs. Wan quickly pulled out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped Qiu's tears.
"Sister Jing, once you get over this hurdle, everything will go smoothly for you in the future. You see, your brother-in-law has always been with you, so you must cherish him." Wan Ersao also comforted her.
Qiu nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yes, I know."
Old Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Wan Er took Mrs. Qiu into the inner room, while Old Second and Old Third Wan sat in the main room with Wang Jiawei.
Just as everyone was talking for a while, the village chief's voice came from the door.
"Jin Zhu, there are guests at your house."
The village chief's voice immediately reached Wan Laoer's ears. Wan Laoer was puzzled. Where did their family have any relatives at the border? Today was a festival, so even if they knew someone, they wouldn't come to their house, right?
Wan Lao Er asked Wan Lao San to greet Wang Jiawei, and he stood up and walked to the door.
The village chief had already asked the people in the carriage to get off and enthusiastically introduced Wan Laoer's family.
"This is the Wan Jinzhu house you are looking for."
Jia Yanbing got off the carriage and looked up at the Wan family's yard. Smoke was already rising from the kitchen, and the sounds of chickens crowing and geese quacking could be heard from the yard.
Jia Yanbing had never seen farm life before, and immediately felt warm.
"Village chief, where are my relatives?" Wan Laoer opened the gate and blurted out the words.
But when he saw who was coming, the smile on his face froze instantly, and then he turned around happily and shouted into the house.
"Fubao, come and see who is here?"
There was obvious surprise in Wan Laoer's voice, causing everyone in the room to come out.
The village chief smiled and said, "Jinzhu, you said you have no relatives, but look at them, they have come from far away, and today is Mid-Autumn Festival, you are finally reunited, I won't disturb your family reunion, I will go back first."
Wan Laoer thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, Village Chief. How about staying for dinner?"
"No, the meal is ready at home."
The village chief waved his hand and went home.
"Mr. Yan, it's really you. You're really here? It's already the middle of August, and I've been counting on my fingers every day to see when you'll come." Wan Laoer hurried forward, shook Jia Yanbing's hand and greeted him.
"Brother Wan Er, we were delayed on the way by something, so we came half a month late, but we managed to catch the Mid-Autumn Festival, this..."
Jia Yanbing said a little embarrassedly.
"Mr. Yan, happy Mid-Autumn Festival! It's a time for families to reunite. You are Fubao's husband, so how can we miss you? Please come in."
Wan Laoer grabbed Jia Yanbing and dragged him into the yard.
"Brother Wan Er, there are still people in the carriage. As I said in the letter, I am bringing my family with me this time, but I am sorry to cause you trouble."
"Oh, look at my brain, I am only thinking about happiness."
At this time, all the Wan family members rushed out, especially Fubao, who ran the fastest when he heard that the master was coming.
"Sir, sir, you are finally here. Fubao has missed you so much."
Fubao ran up and hugged Jia Yanbing's thigh.
Jia Yanbing picked up Fubao and took a closer look. "Well, he has grown taller and gained some weight, which means he has not treated himself badly."
"Of course, I never treat myself badly. Hehe, sir, are the mistress and the others here?"
"They are all here. Now you have company, as well as a brother and a sister."
"Wow, that's great, where are they?"
Fubao quickly looked inside the carriage and saw the curtain was lifted, and a beautiful woman with two children got out of the carriage.
"Master's wife?" Fubao came forward quickly.
At this time, the other members of the Wan family were looking at Jia Yanbing's family of four.
"You are Fu Bao, right? I always hear my husband talk about you. You are such a lovely little Fu Bao."
Jia Yanbing's wife, Cui, lovingly took Fubao's little hand.
Fubao felt that this mistress was extremely gentle. She spoke softly and kindly, and most importantly, she was very beautiful.
