"Let's go!" The old lady raised her lips and asked,
"Girl, are you going to Kyoto to visit relatives? At your age, are you married?"
Lan Guoer smiled and said, "Auntie, my home is in Kyoto. I'm going back now that my visit is over! Besides, I came out to visit my lover."
After learning the old lady's identity, Lan Guoer had nothing to be on guard against the two of them, so she answered truthfully.
"Then your man is really lucky to marry such a pretty and kind girl like you!
Don't tell me, I've lived my whole life and I've never seen anyone more beautiful than you!"
"I think Hong's features are very similar to yours. Auntie, when you were young, you must have been a great beauty in the area, right?"
What Lan Guoer said was true. Although the old lady now had a face full of wrinkles, her bone structure was very harmonious, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
She couldn't help but think of the classic line, "Time never defeats beauty!"
Hearing the praise, the old lady felt happy and became more talkative!
"Hong Yazi does look more like me, but he looks even more like my unlucky son! Speaking of which, he and his father were practically cut from the same mold when they were little!
Back then, wasn't her mother Qiaogu attracted by her father's face from the beginning? She came to our house every few days and was so eager to marry into our family even if she had to pay for it!
It’s just that… Hey! Look at me, I’ve gone off topic again!”
Time seemed to pass much faster when someone was talking. During the conversation, Lan Guoer learned that the old lady took her husband's surname Yang and was named Cuilan. The red boy was named Yang Hongxing and was 6 years old this year.
The next day at noon, the train arrived in Kyoto on time.
Lan Guoer originally wanted to leave the station and ask Xiao Gao to drive the old lady and Hong Yazi to Peking University, but when she mentioned it to the old lady, she refused!
"You young people are all busy with work, and we just met by chance. Miss, could you please tell us the route to Kyoto University? How can we get there? Where can we get on the bus and where can we get off? We can just figure it out! How can we cause you any trouble? Besides, this is our first time in Kyoto, and we want to wander around on our own! Miss, I appreciate your kindness. You should go home soon. This trip is quite long, and your family must be looking forward to your return!"
Lan Guoer could naturally see that the old lady didn't want to trouble her, but now that things had come to this, she couldn't force her, right?
After getting off the bus, Lan Guoer guided them out of the station and repeatedly told them the route to Peking University. She was worried that they would not remember it, so she even wrote a note and told them that if they got lost, they could take the note and ask someone for directions.
Yang Cuilan thanked her gratefully, then picked up the luggage swiftly and took Hong Yazi's hand as she merged into the crowd.
Even if it is just a brief intersection, the magnetic field between people is so subtle!
As she watched the two figures, one old and one young, disappear from her sight, she couldn't help but feel a little worried about the pair of grandparents and grandchildren!
I don’t know if Hong Yazi’s mother is in school. Can they find her successfully?
On the way, Lan Guoer asked the old lady which department her daughter-in-law was from and what major she studied, but the old lady could not read a single word and had never heard her daughter-in-law talk about her major. She only knew that she was admitted to Peking University.
Fortunately, the security in Kyoto has always been good, and there are many enthusiastic people. I think if I ask around, there shouldn't be any big problems, so Lan Guoer didn't think about it anymore.
Upon learning that Lan Guoer was returning to Beijing today, Xiao Gao was waiting at the exit long ago.
When they got home, Mrs. Lan, Tang's mother, Qinghe, and Liu Guiying were gathered in the main room making dumplings. Zhao Wen was turning the rolling pin with his little hands. Everyone was talking and laughing, and it seemed that they were getting along very harmoniously.
"Sister Guo'er, you're finally back! We made your favorite pork and green onion dumplings!"
When Zhao Wen saw Lan Guoer come in, he was the first to rush to her. He didn't even care about the flour in his hand and took the things from her hand.
After being in Kyoto for a while, the little guy has become much more cheerful and lively.
"Ouch! You little brat, you've wasted all the flour! Go wash your hands and come back to continue rolling out the dumpling wrappers."
Liu Guiying glared at her son, then turned to look at Lan Guoer.
"You've been on the car for so long, you must be hungry, right? Sit down for a while, the water is boiling in the kitchen, and I'll make you some dumplings right away!"
Having said that, without waiting for Lan Guoer to react, she picked up a plate of freshly wrapped dumplings and hurried to the kitchen.
"Sister Guiying is really skillful! She left me no chance to show off my skills!" Qinghe continued to wrap dumplings, joking with a smile on his face.
"Guo'er, is Xiao Tang doing well in Guangcheng? Is Guangcheng big? Is it fun?"
"Yes, Guo'er, tell Mom and your grandmother quickly, is Guangcheng really like they say, with tall buildings and lots of fancy things?"
Tang's mother was even more curious. She pulled a stool and motioned Lan Guoer to sit next to her, as if she wanted to listen to a big show.
But Lan Guoer had just sat down and her butt was not even warm when the phone in the room rang.
Lan Guoer stood up and answered the phone. It was Grandpa Su calling.
When Mr. Su heard her voice, his tone was anxious but he could not hide his joy.
"Guo'er, it's great that you're back! Go and show Old Man Zhao your face. Don't let him go away feeling so aggrieved!"
Lan Guoer felt a little confused when she heard Mr. Su's anxious and rambling talk, which was neither relevant nor irrelevant.
"Grandpa, please don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. Did something happen to Grandpa Zhao next door? What's his current condition? Where is he? What do you need me to do?"
"It's all because of his unfilial descendants! Alas!" Old Master Su sighed.
"Now is not the time to discuss this in detail. I saw that the man had just been loaded into a car and was probably being taken to the military hospital. Before he left, I saw that his condition was not good!
It’s just right that you’re back! Grandpa believes in your medical skills. Go to the hospital and take a look at that old man. Don’t let him die like this! "
The old men in the compound usually quarreled and fought, you couldn't stand me, I couldn't stand you, but when it came to life and death, no one wanted to leave the other! The revolutionary friendship was deep!
When Lan Guoer heard this, her heart tightened! The old men were all old, and they had some underlying health problems in their early years, so they couldn't stand getting angry!
Realizing the urgency of the situation, he didn't bother to argue with the women at home. He asked Xiao Gao to start the car again and rushed to the military headquarters...
