"Work." Wu Guixiang nodded, not quite understanding, but didn't ask what kind of work it was. She said softly, "You don't have to hide this kind of thing from me in the future. I know. You're busy, so just tell me."
Su Qingyun felt a little sad for a moment. She only wanted to prevent her grandmother from worrying, but she didn't think that her grandmother would be even more worried if she noticed it.
"I understand, grandma. I will never hide anything from you in the future. I will tell you where I go." Su Qingyun rubbed Wu Guixiang's shoulder affectionately, making Wu Guixiang laugh.
"Sister-in-law, look, now that Yunyun has come back, our mother can't stop smiling." Zhang Xinlan said with emotion when she saw this scene.
"That's right. Didn't you see that some time ago, Mom looked like she had lost her soul. As soon as Yunyun came back, she instantly became full of energy." Li Xiu Lian also said.
Zhang Xinlan: "Yunyun is already so big, but I think Mom is more worried about her than the two little ones."
She was talking about the two children of the fourth generation of the Su family, Suihuan and Chunchun.
"How can they be the same?" Li Xiulian understood. "Yunyun was raised by her mother, so of course we have a special bond. Besides, Yunyun is so far away, and Suihuan and Chunchun's parents are taking good care of her. What should mother have to worry about?"
"That's true." Zhang Xinlan thought about it and realized it made sense. "But why haven't Congjun and Congwu returned with their children yet? Didn't they say they'd only be back in a day or two? It's almost Chinese New Year, and we still haven't seen them. They came all the way back from the capital. They're incredible."
"I understand you're busy with work. You'll have to come back eventually." Li Xiulian smiled softly, not in a hurry. "By the way, has Congwen written back recently? Is he doing well in the military academy?"
Speaking of Congwen, Zhang Xinlan sighed, "I wrote him. Anyway, he always said everything was fine in his letters and never said anything bad."
After careful calculation, she hadn't seen her son for almost three years. Zhang Xinlan didn't know what she was feeling. Obviously, her son was admitted to the military academy and became an officer, and she also became the mother of an officer. She should be happy, but it seemed that she was not that happy.
Li Xiulian also sighed, "Xinlan, don't you know what kind of personality our child has? He only reports good news and not bad news. But it's okay. Congwen is out there, and everything will be fine. The government is looking after him."
"Yeah, I know." Zhang Xinlan sniffed, turned her head away, and held back the tears in her eyes. "Okay, that's enough, let's eat."
"Okay, I'll scoop up this vegetable."
Wu Guixiang asked her family to prepare a lot of New Year's goods, including chicken, duck, fish and meat. The two of them cooked several dishes and served them on the table steaming hot.
"Eat quickly, eat quickly, everyone, pick up your chopsticks."
The family greeted each other and started eating.
Su Qingyun smiled and said, "I haven't eaten home-cooked meals for a long time. I really miss it."
"Then eat more." Wu Guixiang picked up some food for her.
"Good." Su Qingyun took two bites and praised, "The dishes made by my aunt and second aunt are still so delicious."
Zhang Xinlan smiled and said, "Eat more, Yunyun. Your aunt will cook for you as long as you are at home." It must be said that if Yunyun was her daughter, she would love her terribly.
"Thank you, second aunt." Su Qingyun thanked.
For a moment, the house was bustling with activity and the atmosphere was harmonious and beautiful. Wu Guixiang smiled with her eyes curved, looked at the faces, slightly widened her eyes, and held back the tears that had just seeped out. She felt extremely satisfied in her heart. Being able to sit together and eat like this, this is what a family is.
Speaking of family, Wu Guixiang asked, "When will they return from the army?"
"It should be soon." Su Aiguo was not sure either.
Su Aidang took a bite of his rice and said, "Congwu's factory is doing well and they're busy during the New Year, but it's probably only going to be a day or two."
"It's only a couple of days until the New Year." Wu Guixiang said, "Old Third and the others have returned from the capital. If I don't see them before the New Year, I'll make them pay!"
We were so eager to celebrate the New Year and be together as a family, but those two guys in the county came back later than those in the capital. How ridiculous!
As she was speaking, she heard a noise outside. Wu Guixiang was startled and quickly called out to them, "Is there any movement outside? Go and see if he's back."
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
Zhang Xinlan put down the bowl and went out. Seeing Congwu walking in front of her, she was about to speak, but when she saw the figure behind him, her sight suddenly froze and her eyes widened little by little.
