Time passed quickly, and the family divided the work and helped each other, and finally cleaned the house inside and out before it got completely dark.
Looking at the watch on his wrist, Xu Jianguo directly put his family and Xiao Hei and Er Hei into the space. After being busy for the whole afternoon, he had to wash up before eating.
Then he found the car keys in the chest of drawers, put some specialties they brought from Ice City in the trunk, started the car and drove towards the two old men's home.
After parking the car, Xu Jianguo did not rush to get out, but took out the utensils and ingredients for dinner from the space.
When the weather is freezing, there is nothing more relaxing than having a hotpot meal.
Especially Xu Jianguo took into consideration that the two old men came from Jingzhou and could not eat copper pot hot pot meat often, so they would probably miss it.
Because of the people coming from Jingzhou and Fengzhou, Ma Guoliang specially arranged guards at the gate of the courtyard where the old man lived.
At this time, the guard saw a jeep parked near the gate of the courtyard, but the driver did not get out of the car. He felt strange and alert.
Just as the two guards were about to step forward with their guns to check the situation, Xu Jianguo opened the car door and jumped out.
Because it was dark, the two guards could not see the license plate number clearly, so they carefully split into two directions and walked towards Xu Jianguo.
Under the Eyes of Time and Space, the night seemed as bright as day. Xu Jianguo looked at the somewhat nervous guards and found them adorable for no reason. However, he also knew that they had a mission to accomplish, so he did not tease them. Instead, he said, "Relax, I'm Xu Jianguo!"
Upon hearing this, the two soldiers immediately stood at attention and saluted, saying, "Hello, Commander!"
"Relax, don't be nervous!"
"Well, Commander, it's my duty. I still want to confirm. Please cooperate with me. Please forgive me!"
"Okay, come here! Just in time to help me move some stuff!"
"yes!"
As soon as the words fell, one of the guards quickly stepped forward, while the other guard stood still, his hands still tightly gripping the steel gun in his hands.
The guard soldier who came forward took the flashlight from his waist, but he did not shine the light directly on Xu Jianguo. Instead, he saw his face clearly with his peripheral vision, and felt relieved. At the same time, he also gestured to his comrades not far away.
Some people may ask why the two men didn't turn on their flashlights immediately. This actually has to do with the daily training of the guards.
In guard work, there are usually two types: open sentry and covert sentry. When guarding at night, there are clear regulations in the training rules. When performing guard duties, if the identity of the other party cannot be confirmed, it is not allowed to turn on the flashlight immediately to avoid exposing one's own position. Instead, a strategy of dispersed approach should be adopted, with one person verifying the identity and the other person on guard.
"How many shifts?" Xu Jianguo asked as he opened the trunk.
"Report to the commander, squad three!"
"It's cold at night, wear more clothes!"
"yes!"
"Okay, help me move the things to the yard!"
"Okay!"
With the help of two guards, the three of them moved all the things to the door of the main hall of the old man's house in just one trip.
Then Xu Jianguo did not go into the house immediately, but followed the two soldiers back to the jeep.
He opened the door of the jeep and, under the cover of night, took out a few sausages from the space. After turning around and closing the door, he stuffed two sausages into the hands of each of the two soldiers.
"Here, this is the red sausage I brought back from Ice City. Eat it if you're hungry!"
"No, Chief, we can't have it!"
"Take it quickly, this is an order!"
When the two soldiers heard this, their hearts suddenly warmed and they immediately answered, "Yes!"
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo smiled and nodded, then walked towards the yard.
While he and the soldiers were moving things, Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong heard the noise in the yard. But when they got off the kang and went to the main room, they saw Xu Jianguo and the soldiers walking outside.
The two old men waited for a while, and when they saw Xu Jianguo come back, they pushed open the door of the main hall and welcomed him out.
"Grandpa Su, Grandpa Wu!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile.
"You little brat, you have such a bad temper!" Su Dingshan said unhappily.
Xu Jianguo naturally knew what he was talking about, but he didn't take it to heart, nor did he try to argue. He just chuckled foolishly and reached out to pick up some things on the ground and prepared to move them into the house.
The two old men wanted to go forward to help, but Xu Jianguo stopped them and drove them back into the house, which made them burst into laughter.
After moving all the things into the main room, Xu Jianguo did not rush to pack up, but went straight into the inner room.
"Did you two miss me?" Xu Jianguo took off his hat, sat down on the edge of the kang, and asked with a smile.
"Why do I miss you?" Su Dingshan said with a pout.
"Don't listen to your Grandpa Su. He has been nagging me since the day you left. My ears are almost getting calluses from hearing him all the time." Wu Tianlong said with a smile.
When Xu Jianguo heard this, he also grinned.
Su Dingshan rolled his eyes at Wu Tianlong and said unconvincedly, "Why, are you any better than me?"
Watching the two old men bickering, Xu Jianguo felt an inexplicable sense of warmth in his heart, and felt particularly at ease.
After chatting for a while, Su Dingshan put away his smile and said with a serious face: "Your grandfather Zhou called me, and I know everything about your life in Jingzhou. I have to say, you are still so brave. Aren't you afraid that they will arrest you?"
"I'm afraid, but there's no use being afraid. Since we are destined to have different positions and can never be the same person in this life, there's no need for me to indulge them. Sometimes I also want to be reasonable, but when I try to be reasonable, they act like scoundrels. Then why should I be polite? It's better to be straightforward, otherwise people will think I'm easy to bully!" Xu Jianguo said.
Su Dingshan nodded and looked at Xu Jianguo with approval, while Wu Tianlong also said: "Not bad, he looks like a soldier!"
Xu Jianguo smiled and continued, "Grandpa Su, who is coming this time? Are they here for you and Grandpa Wu?"
"Um!"
"Who sent you?"
"Who else could it be? The one you just healed!"
"Wow, it's true that once the wound heals, the pain is forgotten. Only the food is remembered, not the beating!"
"That's just the beginning. Just a few days after you left Jingzhou, she contacted Huzhou and tried to cause trouble. But she was suppressed by your Grandpa Zhou. Now she's targeting me and your Grandpa Wu!"
"So what are your plans, the two of you?"
"Bullshit! This whole thing is your fault. How could you be so ungrateful? You didn't listen to a single word your Grandpa Zhou told you!"
"Don't worry, don't worry. It's not that I don't want to take revenge, it's just that the time has not come yet!"
Hearing Xu Jianguo say this, Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong were stunned at first, then looked at each other, and then looked at him again, with a look of scrutiny and inquiry in their eyes.
