Chapter 449: Finally Returning to the City



"Really? Mom?" Su Qingyun was overjoyed and asked Qin Ying for confirmation, "Grandma and Grandpa, can they really go back to the city?"

"Yes...yes!" Qin Ying's eyes were filled with tears. "It's really possible. Your grandparents have already said in the letter that they will be back in the next two days."

"That's great, it's really great!" Su Qingyun couldn't help but keep repeating it.

From the moment the chaos was rectified, Su Qingyun knew that the day when grandparents would return was not far away, but he did not expect it to happen so soon.

Although she had never met her grandparents, she could feel the love and care of the two elderly people from the letters they exchanged over the past two years.

Even if we put aside this family relationship, one of them is a teacher who teaches and educates people, and the other is a veteran who retired from the battlefield. They have suffered so much, they should have a good ending.

Su Aimin finally came back to his senses and was extremely excited. He was happy for his wife. He knew that his father-in-law and mother-in-law had always been a thorn in Qin Ying's heart over the years. It was only in the past two years that Qin Ying felt much better after contacting them.

Now that her father-in-law and mother-in-law are back, they can be reunited as a family, and they are naturally even happier for her.

"When the time comes, we'll go pick up grandma and grandpa together." Su Qingyun said, "And we have to clean up the room at home so that it will be more comfortable for grandma and grandpa to stay in when they come back."

"Yes, yes, Yunyun is right. We must prepare well for such a big happy event." Su Aimin also nodded vigorously.

"Yeah." Qin Ying was so happy that she cried. Now that she had calmed down, she smiled again.

"Then let's go back first."

Qin Ying helped to pack up, and soon the family of three returned home with the bags of unsold goods.

The whole family was happily looking forward to the arrival of the two old people, while on the other side, Wang Biyun and Qin Weiguo had already been on the train back to Beijing.

The train was speeding forward, and outside the window were houses, trees, plains and hillsides receding.

Wang Biyun leaned against the window, staring for a long time without moving.

"What are you looking at? It's time to eat." Qin Weiguo was holding a lunch box in his hand, which contained the food he had just brought back from the dining car.

Wang Biyun turned around and said with a smile, "I look at the scenery outside the window. It seems like I can see all the years we've been together, the plains and hillsides, the good times and the bad times, as well as the setbacks and hardships."

"Setbacks and hardships are meant to test people. Aren't we doing fine?" Qin Weiguo said calmly, "Although life hasn't been great these past few years, it hasn't been too bad either."

"Think about what life was like before liberation. Not only were we hungry and cold, but we were also constantly worried about whether a shell would land near us at any second. At least we don't have to worry about that now, and that's good enough."

Although he has spent so many years in the new province, Qin Weiguo has always been open-minded. No matter how bad the days are, they will not be worse than the previous days. Suffering will always have an end. Aren’t they waiting for it now?

"That's true. People have to learn to be content." Wang Biyun smiled. She was not the kind of person who liked to complain about everything.

"I can't wait to fly back now. I want to see Yingying and the others. After all these years, she's still the same little girl in my memory. If we meet again, I'm afraid I won't recognize her."

"And my Yunyun, she's grown up so big, and I've never even seen her." Speaking of Su Qingyun, Wang Biyun's eyes were filled with uncontrollable pride. "Yingying and her family have raised their child very well, and they have great potential."

"It doesn't matter whether you are successful or not, little girl. It's best if you can live in peace and happiness." Qin Weiguo said.

He is not of much use to his descendants. They don't need to be outstanding or successful. As long as they are safe, healthy and happy, that's enough.

"Yes, being safe and happy is good enough."

After Wang Biyun said this, she didn't know what she was thinking about, but suddenly she burst into tears.

"Weiguo, how did Lu Cheng become like that?"

"Don't mention him to me!" Qin Weiguo's face instantly became long, not wanting to hear Lu Cheng's name. "It's my fault that I didn't see his evil ambitions!"

"In order to climb up, he will really use any means. Just wait and see, he will get his comeuppance."

Although Qin Weiguo was cursing with gritted teeth, the pain in his eyes could not be concealed at all. He used to treat Lu Cheng as his own son, so Lu Cheng's betrayal was the biggest blow to him.

Over the years, Lu Cheng had actually sent them things, including various letters begging for their forgiveness, but without exception, he threw them all away, and later he stopped sending them.

Qin Weiguo has always been a person who sees black as black and white as white, and he cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes. Lu Chengcheng was able to do such a thing in order to climb up, so he will no longer be soft-hearted towards him.

Wang Biyun had a worried look on her face. "If our Xiaoxun hadn't..."

"Stop talking!" Qin Weiguo interrupted her again, "Xiaoxun is long gone. After we go back, let's not mention Xiaoxun in front of Yingying. If she doesn't know her brother Xiaoxun, it's better for her to never know."

Because even if I knew, Xiaoxun would never come back, so why bother myself with unnecessary worries?

Wang Biyun was silent. Her eyes were a little red, but no tears fell. The tears she shed for Xiaoxun had already dried up in her early years.

"Let's eat." Qin Weiguo was silent for a long time before speaking.

"good."

The old couple ate in silence. The setting sun streamed in through the window, falling on them and casting tiny silhouettes, which was beautiful yet lonely.
