After wandering around in the mountains for a long time, the four brothers and sisters returned home.
When Wen Sitian saw three little girls running into the house wearing garlands, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Are you back?"
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, do you think our wreath is beautiful?"
"It looks good. Where is your brother?" Wen Sitian asked when she didn't see Xu Jianguo.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jianguo's voice rang out from outside the door: "Here I come!"
As Xu Jianguo spoke, he walked in from outside, holding a wreath made of wild flowers of several colors in his hand.
"Here, my wife, this is yours!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile, and then put the wreath on Wen Sitian's head. After putting it on, he nodded with satisfaction and praised: "Well, it looks good!"
Wen Sitian's pretty face turned red, she gave Xu Jianguo a look, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly. She seemed to be in a good mood.
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo didn't say anything, but quietly took out his camera and took pictures of his four beauties.
The family had dinner at Li Dashan's house. When they were there, Xu Jianguo caught two large silver carp from the space fish pond.
Li Mancang and others knew Xu Jianguo's hunting skills, so after hearing that he took three girls into the mountains in the afternoon, they naturally thought that the two big fish were caught by him in the pond and did not ask any more questions.
Dinner was still prepared by Zhang Meijuan, Wang Erni and Wen Sitian. The fish brought by Xu Jianguo was cut into two by Wang Erni. The fish head was used to make fish head pancakes, and the fish body was braised in sauce.
Before serving, in addition to chopped green onions and coriander, Zhang Meijuan also sprinkled a handful of chopped green chives on it, which made it fragrant and delicious.
Even a gourmet like Xu Jianguo praised the dish highly and enjoyed the meal very much.
The three little girls didn't even raise their heads at this time. They were concentrating on eating, and their mouths were full of oil.
As his condition has improved, Li Dashan has a good appetite today and eats a large pancake with fish soup by himself.
After dinner, the three girls were responsible for clearing the table, while Xu Jianguo went to the main room to prepare medicine for Li Dashan for tonight.
After drinking a large bowl of medicine, Li Dashan's complexion became rosy again. Then Xu Jianguo gave him another Yin-Yang rejuvenation needle. If an outsider who didn't know the situation came to visit at this time, he would definitely think that the old man was in very good health.
Although they had seen it once at noon, Li Mancang and his family still found it incredible when they saw Li Dashan with a rosy face in front of them.
After all, it had only been two treatments, and Li Dashan's condition had changed drastically compared to yesterday. If this matter were to be made public, it would be really unbelievable.
"Grandpa Dashan, I have stabilized your condition now, but it will take some time to cure it completely. Eat well, sleep well and get enough rest these days, which will be better for your condition." Xu Jianguo said with a smile.
"Okay, Jianguo, thank you!"
"Look, you're being polite again! If you say that again, I'll be mad!"
"Hahaha, okay, I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore!"
It was still early, so Wang Erni went to the main room to make a pot of tea for everyone, and then everyone sat on the kang and started chatting.
Of course, most of the topics still revolved around Xu Jianguo's family.
Without violating the confidentiality agreement, Xu Jianguo told everyone about what happened after he left Sandaliang Village.
"What did you say? You have won the first-class merit?" Li Dashan asked with wide eyes.
Xu Jianguo nodded and said, "One honorary title, one first-class merit, and two second-class merits."
"My goodness, this can't be fake, you kid, don't bully me (dialect, not a typo)!"
"How could I? Besides, look at my epaulettes. If I hadn't made some great contributions, the army wouldn't have made me a colonel at my age!"
Li Dashan and Li Mancang still didn't believe it, so they turned to look at Wen Sitian, who was smiling, and asked, "Wen girl, is what Jianguo said true?"
"Yes, Grandpa Dashan, Uncle Mancang, what he said is true!" Wen Sitian said with a smile.
"Mancang, our village has produced a first-class hero. This is incredible!" Li Dashan swallowed his saliva and spoke in a trembling voice.
Li Mancang nodded woodenly, still in a daze.
Normally, Li Dashan also came from the battlefield, so he should understand that the honorary title is more valuable than the first-class merit. However, he had been away from the army for many years, so he naturally put the first-class merit first.
After that, Li Dashan and Li Mancang ignored Xu Jianguo and started whispering to each other, and no one knew what they were talking about.
Xu Jianguo looked at the two of them and felt a bit amused and helpless. He thought to himself that this was just the beginning. If it weren't for the confidentiality agreement, the matter between Mr. Big and Mr. Little would have been so shocking that everyone would not be able to sleep tonight.
After a long while, the two men stopped talking to each other, and Li Mancang said to Xu Jianguo, "Jianguo, get up early tomorrow and tell your parents the news. We can't hide this happy event from them."
"Okay, Uncle Mancang!" Xu Jianguo nodded and replied. In fact, even if he didn't say it, Xu Jianguo was also planning to visit the cemetery tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Everyone drank tea and chatted, and time soon came to around nine o'clock in the evening.
Xu Jianguo looked at Li Dashan who was yawning and knew that the old man was sleepy, so he said goodbye and took his family home.
No words were spoken that night.
At six o'clock the next morning, Xu Jianguo was woken up by Wen Sitian.
"What's wrong, wife?"
"It's six o'clock. Let's go to the cemetery early to see our parents!"
Xu Jianguo felt warm in his heart and nodded, saying, "Okay!"
After saying that, the couple got up, dressed, and tidied themselves up briefly. Then Wen Sitian ran to wake up the three maids.
It took the family half an hour to pack up, but looking at Wenwen who was still sleeping soundly, the couple began to feel troubled.
"Wife, what should we do?" Xu Jianguo asked.
Wen Sitian thought for a moment and said, "Just hold the baby. It's a good opportunity for Mom and Dad to see the child!"
"No, people say that children shouldn't go to cemeteries. Aren't you afraid that our son will be haunted?"
"Don't be afraid, we have our parents watching over you, and you're a soldier, so all evil will retreat. There are no taboos!"
Xu Jianguo looked at Wen Sitian's determined face, smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's go together!"
It will be November in two days. The temperature in Sandaliang Village is very low. The family takes Xiao Hei and walks towards the village cemetery.
