Zhang Hewan was in a mess the whole day and had a lot of things to think about.
On this side, Zhang Hewu told Zhang Xingrong what the two brothers had talked about.
"Rongya, you should go back. School starts in September, right? There's only a few days left. Go back quickly. I'm almost done here."
Wanzi also agreed to come back on the weekend, and the next step was to persuade Wanzi to come back to study.
Seeing how smoothly her second brother executed his actions, Zhang Xingrong felt more at ease. She thought, "Second brother used to be a commune worker. What kind of schemes and tricks hasn't he seen?" She should be relieved, but perhaps because so much had happened in his past life, she was always worried.
Now she can feel relieved, but she stayed in the village for two more days, taking care of factory matters while accompanying the old man and the old lady to experience the scenery of the mountain village.
The aunts in the village gave her something every day, which were all rural snacks and specialties.
Zhang Xingrong refused to take it, so they let her go and went home, which made her feel helpless.
Zhang Hewu was discharged from the hospital very soon. His injuries were not serious. The most serious problem was the fever. The doctor was worried that the fever and injury would cause complications, so he was hospitalized.
The day after he was discharged from the hospital, Zhang Xingrong and the old man were going back to the provincial capital.
Zhang Xingrong explained many things earnestly and worried that Zhang Hewu might not pay attention.
"Shi Tou, please help keep an eye on him and don't let him go to work. If he doesn't obey, tell Sister Su Ying, okay?"
Shitou nodded. He must take good care of his brother's land and not let his brother work anymore.
Su Ying nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Rongya, I'm watching him. I won't let him work. If he commits a crime, I will have him taken to the hospital and let him stay in the hospital!"
“…”
Zhang Hewu looked at his wife sadly. He thought, "There has been nothing to do these days. I'm almost going moldy from idleness. I wanted to go to the orchard, but it seems I can't go."
He didn't want to go to the hospital. It was even more boring there. He couldn't do anything but lie there. He felt like he was getting old.
After hearing Su Ying's words, Zhang Xingrong felt relieved and got into the car.
On the way back, unexpectedly, the two elders were unhappy. Jin Haiwen was in a good mood.
The two old people are very happy living in the countryside these days, walking around here and there, and are in a good mood.
Zhang Xingrong consoled her: "From now on, we will find time every month to go back to the countryside to live."
The old man glanced at her and said, "No, it's troublesome! If I want to go, I can go to my old comrade's house by myself."
Given his situation, he'd have to ask Xiao Su and the others to come over for protection. He wouldn't feel comfortable coming out. Coming out once in a while is fine, but coming out every month is out of the question.
Zhang Xingrong also considered this issue. Safety was indeed an issue. The old man had been through a lot in the battlefield for half his life, and there were probably many people who cared about him, so safety had to be considered.
He probably felt embarrassed to trouble Xiao Su, and she couldn't help but think of Hong Qi and his group.
Last time, Hong Qi revealed that he was not alone. When needed in the future, maybe we can find Hong Qi and his group. They should be in great need of money.
The next day after returning to the Lu family's old house, Zhang Xingrong went to the family area to get her things.
It had been almost two months since she'd been home to the family quarters, and returning felt strangely familiar yet strange. Sitting under the tree at the entrance to the family quarters were the same people. There seemed to be some new faces, too, but she didn't bother to look closely.
