Father Shen, who wanted to continue speaking, looked at Shen Qingmiao's aggrieved look and could only swallow the words he hadn't said. "Okay, let's go home first. It's not right to stand here all the time."
Father Shen didn't say anything about whether Gu Jingyuan would stay or go, but the meaning was already very clear.
Father Shen walked alone in front, while Shen Qingmiao and Gu Jingyuan behind him looked at each other, and both saw the smile of temporary relief from each other.
"Let's go, Comrade Gu."
"Together, Comrade Shen."
The two smiled at each other and followed Shen's father together.
Shen's father's attitude made Gu Jingyuan understand that he was safe for the time being, and the next thing was the highlight. Gu Jingyuan was already thinking quickly about what the old lady on the train had said, and planned to put it into action when he arrived at Shen Qingmiao's house.
Father Shen, who was walking in front, was very upset. He looked back and saw Shen Qingmiao and Gu Jingyuan talking and laughing, which made him even more upset.
So when facing Gu Jingyuan along the way, Father Shen had no good expression and a sour face, obviously disliking him.
Gu Jingyuan had expected this. Facing Mr. Shen's cold words, Gu Jingyuan always responded with a smile, striving to be impeccable.
On the way back to the village, Gu Jingyuan's appearance also aroused great interest from the villagers of Xiaohe Village. When they met Shen's father and other villagers on the road, they would ask with a smile: "Xuewen, who is this person in your family?"
Even though Father Shen was unhappy, he still replied: "My Qingmiao is her boyfriend."
"What, Qingmiao's partner? This is incredible! Your Qingmiao has found a really good partner. He seems like a capable person."
"Nothing, nothing, just so-so."
Shen Qingmiao and Gu Jingyuan didn't do anything else except greeting and smiling.
When Shen's father and his companions returned home, the news that Shen Qingmiao, the daughter of Shen Xuewen, had found a partner had spread to all the women and girls in the village. They were all talking about the identity of Shen Qingmiao's partner and where he was from.
Mother Shen was absent-minded all day today, and she would glance towards the door from time to time to see if they had returned.
"Grandma, what are you looking at?" Xiao Jie noticed that Mother Shen looked like this for a long time and couldn't help but ask.
"Your aunt is coming back today. Grandma is checking to see if she's back."
When Xiao Jie heard that Shen Qingmiao was coming back, he was happy, "What, my aunt is coming back, that's great!"
Xiao Jie, who couldn't wait to see his aunt, stayed in the yard with Shen's mother, waiting for Shen Qingmiao and the others who might come back at any time.
There were footsteps at the door, and Xiaojie, who heard it, immediately shouted: "Grandma, I heard someone coming back, it must be my aunt and the others, I'll go out and take a look."
Having said that, he ran out the door in a flash.
Mother Shen couldn’t catch up even when she wanted to say something, “This kid runs so fast.”
Mother Shen naturally heard the sound outside the door and followed Xiaojie out.
They were both looking forward to who was coming, and they all agreed that it would be Shen Qingmiao and the others.
As they expected, Xiaojie, who ran to the door, and Shen's mother, who came out later, saw Shen's father and the other two walking towards the house.
"Grandma, it's really my aunt." After saying this, she ran towards Shen Qingmiao, "Aunt, you're back!"
He was jogging and shouting at the same time.
Hearing this familiar voice and seeing this familiar figure, Shen Qingmiao immediately became alert. He quickly walked out and opened his arms to Xiaojie.
"Auntie, I miss you so much!"
When Xiaojie ran over, Shen Qingmiao hugged him and said, "Auntie missed you too."
After saying that, she kissed Xiaojie on the cheek. Xiaojie buried his head shyly, not daring to look at anyone.
His appearance caused everyone else to laugh, which made him even more embarrassed.
Shen Qingmiao said with a grin, "Our Xiaojie is a man, why are you shy? Lift your head up quickly and stop playing ostrich."
"What is an ostrich?" Xiao Jie had never heard of an ostrich and became curious.
"An ostrich is a big bird with its head lowered." Shen Qingmiao lied.
"Have you seen that girl?" Xiao Jie's bright eyes were full of curiosity.
Shen Qingmiao held his head high and said complacently, "Of course, how would you know if you haven't seen it yourself?"
"You are so awesome, Auntie!" Shen Qingmiao's expert in flattery, Xiaojie, is online again.
Mother Shen came forward, and the first thing she said when she saw Shen Qingmiao was, "You've lost weight." Her eyes were full of heartache.
"No way, besides, thinner is better looking."
"Nonsense, who likes being thin? White and plump is better, everyone likes that."
Well, Shen Qingmiao admitted that what Shen's mother said was right. At this time, it seemed that everyone liked white and plump people, saying that they were more blessed. On the other hand, those who were thin and weak were not liked by everyone.
The group entered the house, and Shen's mother was very curious about Gu Jingyuan, "Who is this?"
Before Shen Qingmiao could speak, Shen's father replied unhappily, "Qingmiao's girlfriend."
Xiao Jie, who understood what he heard, immediately asked Gu Jingyuan, "Are you my uncle?" There was great curiosity in his eyes, and he stared at Gu Jingyuan as if he was looking at some new toy.
Gu Jingyuan was so happy when he was called Xiaojie. Fortunately, he knew his situation and did not get too carried away.
Shen Qingmiao said embarrassedly: "Just be quiet for now, I'll show you the gift I brought later."
When Xiaojie heard about the gift, he immediately shut his mouth and said that he would be obedient.
Mother Shen was just like Father Shen who had just heard the news. She was stunned for a moment and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
She hadn't expected Qingmiao to go out and bring back a son-in-law for her. For a moment, she couldn't accept it.
"How did you two know each other?" Shen's mother's first reaction was that Qingmiao might have been deceived. Although the young man in front of her did not look like that kind of person, it was better to be cautious than to judge a person's heart.
"Gu Jingyuan was my second brother's comrade-in-arms. When my second brother returned to the army, Gu Jingyuan came to our house."
After Shen Qingmiao's reminder, Shen's mother seemed to remember something, "It seems that there is such a person."
In order to make her memory more profound, Mother Shen moved closer and took a closer look.
It seems to have some memory.
This time, Shen's mother felt a little relieved. He was Jianjun's comrade-in-arms, so he shouldn't be a liar or something.
