The two nodded.
I handed over my identification documents.
After Gu Xiangdong glanced at them and confirmed their identities, he told them to put their luggage on the tractor.
"Leave your luggage behind and walk to the bus stop to catch the bus."
Gu Jianhua gave instructions from the side.
When the educated youth heard that there was a bus to take, they couldn't help but smile broadly. For a moment, they couldn't believe that they had come to such a good place during their rural assignment.
Aren't rural areas all very poor these days?
However, it's impossible for a very poor village to afford a tractor.
Some of the educated youth still couldn't believe it and asked the question.
"Is there really a bus? Does it go directly to the village?"
With such favorable conditions, they are full of confidence for the life ahead.
Gu Xiangdong glanced at the two disbelieving female educated youths and said seriously, "The bus goes to the village entrance, but you have to walk in yourself."
These conditions are already incredibly desirable, truly exceptional.
You have to understand that Geda Village was a place where there wasn't even an oxcart, and it would take almost a day to walk there! In comparison, they were assigned to Dawan Village, which was really great.
Knowing that the environment they were going to was relatively good, the educated youth were all happy. They put down their luggage, carried a small bag, and walked together in twos and threes toward the bus station.
Lu Huaijiao and the others, who had left earlier, had already gotten off the bus.
Seeing the familiar village, Lu Huaijiao felt an urge to fly home immediately to see He Meizhu.
"Gu Changzheng, hurry up, you need to leave quickly."
Lu Huaijiao was anxious, but she didn't forget to pull Gu Changzheng along. After all, many families in the village kept dogs. What if they didn't keep a close eye on their dogs and let them out, and she ran into them?
We definitely need to call on Gu Changzheng as a shield.
Gu Changzheng, the true 'shield', looked at the young girl beside him in such a hurry. Those in the know would understand that she was going back to her husband's family home, while those who didn't would probably think she was going back to her parents' home!
Look how excited she is.
"Jiaojiao, baby, we're still pregnant, don't worry."
Because I'm pregnant with triplets, I'm almost two months along and my pregnancy is already showing. I look like most people are three months along.
Fortunately, Lu Huaijiao was already thin, and the clothes she wore were quite large, so it was difficult for outsiders to notice unless they looked closely.
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue in disdain.
Then he muttered to himself, "If I wasn't worried about being bitten by a dog, I wouldn't have waited for you."
After muttering to himself, he looked up and pretended to be nonchalant.
Gu Changzheng: ...
Thank you. His hearing is very good, so he heard everything Lu Huaijiao said, okay?
However, seeing that the girl seemed perfectly fine, Gu Changzheng 'kindly' decided not to expose her.
The couple walked into the village together and arrived at their home after walking for a while.
Their house is right at the entrance of the village where the bus stop is located, so it's a quick walk, only a few minutes.
Seeing the familiar red bricks and walls, Lu Huaijiao pulled her hand away from Gu Changzheng's and happily went to open the door with her small bag.
As it turned out, she realized she hadn't brought her keys.
In the end, Gu Changzheng used the key to open the courtyard gate, allowing Lu Huaijiao to enter the house.
Seeing her familiar courtyard, Lu Huaijiao couldn't have been happier.
“The courtyard in Shanghai is nice, and the courtyard here is nice too.” As she said this, her expression suddenly turned somewhat sad: “Gu Changzheng, you said we can go back to the city in the future, but what if I can’t bear to leave this courtyard?”
Although this place is small and a bit dilapidated, it was all built by Gu Changzheng himself, and she still felt it was a bit of a pity to just abandon it.
Upon hearing her words, Gu Changzheng put his things away, walked over, and ruffled her hair.
Your hands are sweaty!
Lu Huaijiao tilted her head to the side with disgust, dodging his hand: "You just squeezed my hands until they were wet."
Gu Changzheng: ...
Could he say that her alluring and seductive appearance had aroused his reaction? After weighing the options carefully, he knew he couldn't say that.
Because Lu Huaijiao would definitely take the opportunity to laugh at him.
Gu Changzheng chuckled and saw the girl sitting on the swing under the grape trellis. He walked over, but before he could speak, she spoke first.
"What are you doing? Go get a towel and a basin. I need to wash my face and hands."
"..."
It's really easy to use!
Gu Changzheng's back molars were grinding together, but he still turned around and went to find a washbasin and a towel.
During their twenty-day trip to Shanghai, they left the key with He Meizhu, who would come over every few days to help tidy up.
Actually, there wasn't much to tidy up; it was just a matter of taking a look around and sweeping up fallen leaves and such.
The room was very well tidied up when they left; all the blankets were washed and stored in a large closet, and there was no dust on them.
When Gu Changzheng came back today, he took out the quilt to air it out, so it would be soft and fluffy again when he slept tonight.
They fetched a basin, filled it with water, and helped Lu Huaijiao wash her face and hands. Lu Huaijiao was extremely sleepy, and while waiting, she had already fallen asleep on the swing.
Although the train journey over the past few days had been arranged to be as comfortable as possible, Lu Huaijiao was, after all, pampered and spoiled, and being pregnant made her more prone to fatigue during long journeys than the average person.
Another thing is that she rarely falls asleep on the train because she always complains about the smell...
Well, although Lu Huaijiao isn't a germaphobe, she is a very particular person, a trait she developed from a young age and can't change anytime soon.
Therefore, all they can do is endure hardship.
Gu Changzheng said he was disgusted, but he was also very distressed.
After washing her hands and face, he gently coaxed her to sit there a little longer, then turned and went back into the house to make the bed.
Gu Changzheng quickly made the bed, then carried the girl who was dozing on the swing outside back into the room. Sensing the change in position, Lu Huaijiao snuggled into Gu Changzheng's arms with her eyes closed.
"Jiaojiao, shall we go to bed?"
Gu Changzheng gently coaxed him.
Lu Huaijiao heard it.
She pouted: "Change clothes..."
Even though you're so tired, you still haven't forgotten that you haven't changed your clothes? Gu Changzheng was both annoyed and amused.
"I know, I know, my ancestor. Sleep peacefully now."
"Hey? Fourth brother, who are you calling 'ancestor'?"
He Meizhu's voice could be heard from outside.
Gu Changzheng was just putting Lu Huaijiao on a stool and was about to undress her when He Meizhu saw this scene. Her expression suddenly changed and she quickly walked in.
She lowered her voice and scolded her youngest son.
"Fourth brother, what are you doing? What are you trying to do to Huaijiao?"
