"It's okay. I've already rested for a while at the educated youth camp."
Mei Xiangcao hurried over to greet Old Mrs. Guan. The old lady had a good relationship with her daughter-in-law, which meant that she was her daughter-in-law's family, so she couldn't neglect them.
"Auntie, you're here."
"Yes, I've been thinking about the two girls these past few days since I went back home. Coincidentally, the old man at home has time, so we came together."
"Master is here too."
"Yes, I'm at the educated youth camp now, with my daughter."
"Is Aunt Guan here too?" Xu Nuannuan asked. She came again.
"Yes, Yurong was worried about us two old people, so she insisted on coming with us."
"Auntie, please come to our house and rest for a while." Mei Xiangcao said.
"No, no." Old Lady Guan waved her hand. "You all go ahead and get busy. I want to talk to Nuannuan for a few words."
Mei Xiangcao stopped bothering her and went back to her own work.
"Nuannuan, are you okay these days?"
"I'm fine, Grandma."
Old Lady Guan saw that Xu Nuannuan had a rosy complexion and was in good spirits. She was still the pretty and energetic girl she had seen before.
"Grandma, how are you doing in Jing City these days?"
Old Mrs. Guan smiled lovingly: "Grandma is fine too, she just misses you."
"Grandma, come to my place for lunch at noon. I'll make you something delicious."
"OK."
Old Mrs. Guan agreed without thinking, and seemed to have forgotten about Old Man Guan and Guan Yurong who were at the educated youth site.
When it was time to get off work, Mrs. Guan and Xu Nuannuan went home together.
Lin Ruyan and other educated youth also returned to the educated youth center. When she saw Mr. Guan at the door of the educated youth center, she felt unfamiliar again and stood there blankly, with no intention of talking to him.
It was Grandpa Guan who took the initiative to call her with a smile, "Ruyan, it's time to get off work. Hey, why don't you look so happy to see Grandpa? Grandpa wanted to give you a surprise."
Guan Yurong secretly glared at Lin Ruyan, thinking that she couldn't even act.
She walked up to Lin Ruyan and reminded her, "Ruyan, what's wrong with you? Didn't you see your grandpa coming? Haven't you been missing him the whole time? Your grandpa is standing right in front of you, why are you still in a daze? Oh, maybe it's because you missed your grandpa so much that he suddenly came, so you can't believe it."
Guan Yurong kept smiling and was very good at acting.
Lin Ruyan looked at her, then looked at Grandpa Guan, and called out to him in a weak voice, "Grandpa."
"Yeah." Grandpa Guan agreed immediately, still smiling, and walked up to Lin Ruyan. "Ruyan, you've been in the countryside for so many days, and grandpa has missed you a lot. Do you miss grandpa?"
"I, I miss grandpa." There was no emotion in her tone, and her expression was indifferent, even a little cold.
Old Master Guan frowned slightly, "Ruyan, you seem unhappy."
Guan Yurong immediately winked at Lin Ruyan, and Lin Ruyan forced a stiff smile towards Old Man Xu Guan.
"No, Grandpa, I'm very happy. How can I not be happy when Grandpa comes?"
Lin Ruyan thought about how good Mr. Guan had been to her over the years, and felt mixed emotions.
Grandpa Guan took out the gifts he brought for Lin Ruyan from his bag. "Ruyan, your grandma and I bought these at the department store. They're all your favorite foods. Your grandma also bought you a hair flower and a hairpin. Girls should look pretty."
Lin Ruyan felt sad and her nose started to sore after hearing this.
These are not her biological grandparents at all, but they are so good to her. She accepts every bit of their kindness, thinking they are all stealing Xu Nuannuan's.
"Grandpa, I have everything."
Grandpa Guan's face darkened. "Don't you like the things your grandparents bought you? You used to love having us two old guys buy things for you."
"No, it's not." Lin Ruyan didn't know how to explain it. She glanced at Guan Yurong and said, "Grandpa, I like it very much."
Xu Nuannuan and Old Lady Guan were cooking in the kitchen when Old Lady Guan suddenly thought of Mr. Guan.
"Oh, when I came to see you just now, I told the old man that I would go back. Now I have to eat here, and the old man doesn't know yet."
"Then ask Grandpa Guan to come over. I just added some more water to the pot."
Old Mrs. Guan hesitated, not wanting to trouble Xu Nuannuan too much.
Xu Nuannuan added, "The educated youth are short of food now. I'm afraid the educated youth camp can't cook for Grandpa Guan. Let him come over. I have everything here."
Mrs. Guan knew that Xu Nuannuan was not just being polite to her, "Then I'll go call the old man over now."
"Grandma, why don't I go with you? We can continue cooking when we get here."
She really wanted to see Mr. Guan as soon as possible.
"Okay, let's go together."
Educated Youth Point
Zhang Lei and Lu Xinyue saw that more relatives had come to visit, and they were going to eat the food at their educated youth camp. The food they had was not enough for themselves, so the two told Grandpa Guan and Guan Yurong that the educated youth camp could not cook for them, and asked them to find a way to get food themselves.
Grandpa Guan did bring some snacks, but he didn't like those things. If there was no food here, where would he go to eat? She didn't want to go to the state-owned restaurant in the county again.
"Comrade, just cook our meal first, and we'll give you food tomorrow."
Zhang Lei felt it was a bit troublesome, but he couldn't refuse the other person too much, so he nodded.
At this time, Mrs. Guan and Xu Nuannuan came.
As soon as Xu Nuannuan entered the door, she saw an old man with gray hair standing in the yard.
