After hanging up the phone, Xu Jianguo said something to Wen Sitian and walked outside to pick up the three old men to his home.
After parking the car in front of Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong's homes, Xu Jianguo got out of the car, pushed open the gate and walked in.
Unexpectedly, before he even entered the house, three old men came out with smiles on their faces.
"Grandpa Su, Grandpa Wu, Grandpa Wang!" Xu Jianguo shouted with a smile.
"Are you here?" Su Dingshan said with a smile.
"Well, let's go. Everything is ready at home. Grandpa Zhou and the others have already left and will be here soon!"
"Okay, okay, okay! Let's go quickly. It's been a long time since I had a drink with the leader!" Wang Huaian said with a smile.
After picking up the three old men, Xu Jianguo drove towards his home.
As soon as they entered the door, Wen Sitian and the children came to greet them.
Not long after they arrived home, Mr. Zhou's car stopped at the door of Xu Jianguo's house.
After the car stopped, the drivers Liang Chao and Chen Jin quickly got out of the car, opened the doors on both sides of the back row, and Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Deng got out of the car.
The two elders were still dressed simply, no different from what we usually see.
They did not rush into the yard, but stopped there to look at Xu Jianguo's yard and house.
"Chen Jin, you've been busy for a year. Go back and have a good New Year and spend time with your family!" Old Master Zhou looked at Chen Jin who was standing beside him and said.
"Chief, it's okay. I've already told my family. I'll still wait for you here!" Chen Jin said.
"No need. Today is just an ordinary family dinner, not any other occasion. Go back early!" The old man continued to persuade.
Chen Jin thought about it, nodded and said, "Yes, Chief, I will go back and have New Year's Eve dinner with my family and then come back!"
"Just stay home today. There will be plenty of things for you to do after the New Year. No need to rush here!"
"Commander, I..."
Chen Jin wanted to say something, but the old man smiled and waved at him, saying, "Alright, even machines need to rest. This is not laziness, but to be able to work better. Follow the order!"
"Yes, Chief, then I would like to wish you two a happy New Year and good health in advance!" Chen Jin nodded and spoke to the two old men.
"Okay, I wish you all the best in the new year, and may your family be well too!"
"Thank you, Chief!"
Xu Jianguo, who had been paying attention to the situation outside the hospital, discovered it when the old man's car arrived at the gate.
However, through the Eyes of Time and Space, he discovered that Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Deng did not enter the house immediately, but were talking to Chen Jin, so he did not go out to greet them.
Only after the two of them finished talking did he push open the door and walk out with his family, followed by Su Dingshan and the other two.
"Grandpa Zhou, Grandma Deng, Uncle Chen, Brother Liang!" Xu Jianguo came up with a smile on his face and greeted the four of them one by one.
When the old lady saw Xu Jianguo, a kind smile appeared on her face. Then, without caring about her husband, she walked over first.
At this time, Wen Sitian and the children also came forward, calling "Grandma, Great-Grandma" one after another, making the old lady laugh so hard that she couldn't stop. She pinched Lele's little face, pulled Wen Sitian's little hand, and also reached out to touch Wen Sitian's belly.
Su Dingshan and others also came over and greeted Grandma Deng with smiles on their faces. When Xu Jianguo heard that three old men who were obviously older than the old lady actually called her "big sister", she was really shocked.
"What are you thinking about, kid?" At this time, Mr. Zhou walked to Xu Jianguo and asked with a smile.
"Why do Grandpa Zhou and Grandpa Su call Grandma Deng 'Big Sister'?"
"Hahaha, that's because your Grandma Deng once saved the lives of three of them!"
"Really? Grandma Deng is so awesome?"
"Of course, my boy, even though she's just an old lady now, she was ruthless in killing the enemy during the war!"
"Women are as good as men!" Xu Jianguo praised him, but Mr. Zhou smiled and said nothing.
Seeing that the conversation was almost over, and it was freezing cold outside, Xu Jianguo decided to invite everyone into the house.
At this time, Chen Jin, who had been waiting on the side, came over and said with a smile: "Jianguo, I wish you a happy new year in advance!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Jianguo immediately asked, "Uncle Chen, what do you mean? You're not spending the New Year here?"
Chen Jin smiled and shook his head, saying, "The chief has approved my leave and asked me to go home and have New Year's Eve dinner with my family!"
"Ah? Your family is all in Jingzhou? I didn't know that!"
"It's normal that you don't know. Your Uncle Chen's position is very special. The situation of his family members is kept strictly confidential, just like you!" Old Master Zhou explained.
"What? You mean, our entire family's information is also kept confidential?"
"Nonsense, you still think you are an ordinary person?" Mr. Zhou said unhappily. After that, he looked at Chen Jin and said, "Go back quickly, don't let your family wait for you to eat!"
"Yes, Chief!" Chen Jin replied.
Xu Jianguo thought about it and quickly said, "Uncle Chen, wait a moment!" After that, he walked out of the yard, came to the back of his jeep, opened the trunk, and then took out a lot of things from it under the cover of the vehicle.
There were cigarettes, alcohol, two strips of bacon weighing about ten pounds, and some White Rabbit milk candies and canned food.
Just as Xu Jianguo ran to get something, Su Dingshan and the other two also came to Grandpa Zhou. The four old men who had experienced ups and downs together gathered together and chatted about family matters with a smile.
Xu Jianguo put a jar of medicinal wine into a net bag, then put the rest of the things into a cloth bag, and then walked out from the back of the car.
"Uncle Chen, I didn't know you were going home for dinner tonight, and I didn't prepare anything for you in advance. Take these things back to your family!" Xu Jianguo came to Chen Jin and handed him the things in his hand while speaking.
Chen Jin looked at Xu Jianguo with some emotion in his heart, shook his head and said, "I received your kindness, but I can't accept your gifts. Everything is ready at home. It's cold, so please come inside quickly. I'm leaving now!"
Xu Jianguo guessed that Chen Jin would not accept his things, but he didn't know what to do for a moment, so he could only look at Mr. Zhou for help.
The old man noticed Xu Jianguo's look, and understood what he meant. He smiled and said to Chen Jin, "This kid is so kind, just accept it. Besides, these things are not for you. Take them back to your family!"
Seeing that his leader had spoken, Chen Jin had no choice but to reach out and take the thing. He smiled and thanked Xu Jianguo, then said hello to everyone else and left with the thing.
