"Aunt Zhang, Brother Zhang and Sister-in-law Zhang, what are you doing?"
Jiang Yue said, pretending to be angry.
"Moon, this is a small token of our appreciation from your aunt's family and a few other families. These things are not worth much; you can take them back to the capital."
In the past, when they wanted to give Jiang Yue gifts, she would refuse them and always insisted on giving them money. This time, however, they refused to accept any money from Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to accept it.
"Thank you, Auntie. Brother Zhang and Sister-in-law Zhang, please help me thank those families."
"Okay, okay. You're welcome."
Aunt Zhang couldn't stop smiling when she heard Jiang Yue accept the gift.
Jiang Yue invited Aunt Zhang, Brother Zhang, and Sister-in-law Zhang to have dinner at her home, but Aunt Zhang said she had something to do at home and would come over another time.
Aunt Zhang left with her eldest son and daughter-in-law.
That evening, Jiang Yue received a call from Lu Yu.
"daughter in law."
"You've arrived in Fujian?"
Lu Yu answered with a smile on the other end of the phone.
"Yes, I've arrived and just settled in. I'll give you a call first."
Jiang Yue told them that they had bought tickets and would be taking the train back to Beijing early the day after tomorrow.
"Okay, you can go back now. If I complete my mission and have time off, I'll go back to the capital to be with you and the children."
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Jiang Yue smiled.
“You don’t even know how long it will take you to complete the task. The promises you’re making are not something my children and I are willing to accept.”
Lu Yu laughed when he heard his wife's words.
Lu Yu then asked about the children.
"After you left, the three children cried for a while. The eldest and second children were easy to soothe and didn't cry for long. The youngest child cried for quite a while until he was tired and fell asleep."
Hearing his wife's words, Lu Yu felt a little sad.
"Wife, I'm sorry."
"Don't apologize. It's normal for children to cry. Just focus on your work and try to come back to be with us soon. Make sure you're safe and sound."
"good."
After finishing her call with Lu Yu, Jiang Yue received a call from Fang Yuan.
"Sister-in-law, Xiao Bei and I have arrived."
"Yeah, your brother Lu just called me."
Jiang Yue smiled and said, "How are you feeling over there? What are the conditions like in the family compound? Should I send you some things?"
Upon hearing Jiang Yue's words, Fang Yuan quickly refused.
“Sister-in-law, I’m doing well here, and the conditions are quite good. You don’t need to send me anything; Xiao Bei has already prepared everything.”
Actually, living conditions in Fujian are not as good as in Hunan. Many places still have stone houses. And where they live is very close to the sea, but it takes more than half an hour to go to the county to buy things, and more than an hour to go to the city.
Aside from military vehicles, there were no other vehicles available to take to the county or city.
However, Fang Yuan didn't want her grandmother and sister-in-law to worry, so she said everything was fine.
They'd already endured such hardship before. During military training, they only carried a little food, finding the rest in the mountains. If she could handle that, what couldn't she do now?
Upon hearing Fang Yuan's words, Jiang Yue naturally knew that Fang Yuan was not telling the truth.
It just so happens that she has the idea of opening a department store in Fujian.
She'll have Qin Li go over and choose the location first, and then she'll go over and take a look once the department store is almost ready.
After talking with Fang Yuan for a while, Jiang Yue handed the phone to her grandmother.
Grandma Jiang and Grandma Lu both talked to Fang Yuan for a long time.
