Zhu Shizhen nodded. "That's right. No one lives in that house over there. It won't be good for a long time. Xiaomei, give Dashan some money and ask him to go to the brigade and buy 200 kilograms of food for Xiazhi."
After saying that, grandma thought for a moment and said, "Let's buy 300 kilograms. 300 kilograms can sustain us for a while. When the autumn harvest is successful and there is food, we should not be unable to buy food."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiazhi hurriedly stopped him: "No, no, we have already prepared a lot of food in advance. There are not many people eating, so we can eat until the New Year."
"Grandpa, grandma, mom and dad, you don't have to worry about us. If we really have no food to eat, we are not stupid and we will run back."
"As for you, this year is not a good year, and you have missed a lot of work because of my marriage. There will definitely not be much food to share when the time comes. Don't be reluctant. Buy more food and keep it in your hands."
"And grandpa and grandma, you are old now and can't do anything anymore, so don't compete with the young people. When the time comes, you two should just stay at home and take care of the little piece of land in the backyard, grow some vegetables and have a good rest."
"When we have settled down there and you are in good health, I can take you out to see the world."
Zhu Shizhen wiped the tears from her eyes and said with a smile, "Okay, grandma will listen to you. Next year, grandpa and grandma won't work in the fields. Just raise some chickens and grow some vegetables with your grandpa at home."
Qiao Xiazhi: "Mom and Dad, you too, just do what you can. Do as much as you can. There's no need to neglect your health. If you tire yourself out, you'll suffer in the end. If there's not enough food, we can just spend some money to buy some. It won't cost much."
"It was a different story before when our family was not well off, but now that conditions are better, you have to take better care of your health, understand? When your daughter, son-in-law, brother and sister-in-law are successful in the future, you will have to enjoy the good life."
Fang Mei had already stopped crying and could only nod her head continuously.
In fact, Qiao Xiazhi had told everyone these words before.
But she wouldn't walk that fast at that time, so everyone wasn't so sad.
Now thinking about the fact that my daughter and granddaughter will be going to the north in a few days, the reluctance to let them go surged up in my heart, and my tears fell uncontrollably.
"If you need anything over there, just write back and Dad will think of a way for you. Don't make yourself suffer, okay?" Qiao Dashan's voice was a little choked with sobs at this time.
Seeing his family's worries, Jiang Yunchen quickly stepped forward to express his opinion, saying, "Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Xia Zhi."
As soon as Jiang Yunchen opened his mouth, his family became even more worried.
It would have been fine if he didn't speak, but once he spoke, his family would remember the dangers he faced when he was on missions and become even more worried.
Qiao Dashan said, "We are not too worried about Xia Zhi. This child has known what he wants since he was young and will not make things difficult for himself. But you, child, now that you have a family, you should be more careful when you are on a mission outside, okay?"
"No matter what danger you encounter, Daddy selfishly hopes that you can think more about this family and Xia Zhi. You are all still young, so you all need to be well."
"Don't be so young...just..." As he spoke, Qiao Dashan couldn't help sobbing.
Even Qiao Xiazhi didn't know how to deal with this situation. It was also her fault. How could things have come to this?
"Okay, okay, it's just a trip out to read a book, no more words, let's all be happy. Yunchen, go play chess with grandpa. Grandma, we'll have dumplings tonight. Let's go to the backyard and cut some leeks and pick them. By the way, pick two cucumbers to eat."
As he said that, Qiao Xiazhi picked up the basket and sickle and accompanied his grandmother to the backyard to cut leeks and pick cucumbers.
Cut the chives, pick them clean, wash them and dry them, then you can use them to make dumplings later.
Everyone was busy with their own things and finally I wasn't feeling so sad anymore.
During dinner, everyone avoided the sad topic and the atmosphere finally became better.
However, a married daughter and her husband cannot sleep in the same room at her parents' home.
At night, Qiao Xiazhi slept in the same room with Qiao Dongzhi, and Jiang Yunchen slept alone in Qiao Xiazhi's room.
They stayed at her mother's house for two days and returned to the city on the third day.
Before leaving, Qiao Xiazhi specifically told her grandparents and parents that they must eat all the food she and Jiang Yunchen bought every day and not give it away.
After all, this was specially prepared for her family.
My eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, Dongzhi and my aunt also have them, but they don’t have as many as my grandparents and parents.
After returning to the city, they will start packing up and prepare to go north.
Su Fang came to help look after the house. The room he stayed in was the guest room on the second floor, and the other rooms did not need to be touched.
They just need to pack up their things and cover them with cloth to prevent dust.
As for the kitchen and the living room, Su Fang can use them both, so they don't have to clean up.
Finally, just pack up the things you want to take away.
Nothing important, actually, just some clothes.
I left the quilt at home because I will need it when I come back. I will get a new one when I get there.
After packing everything, they will set off tomorrow morning.
In the afternoon, Qiao Xiazhi didn't expect that her brothers and sisters from her natal family, as well as Qiao Dashan and his wife, would come to see her off.
My grandparents were reluctant to let me go, fearing that I would cry my eyes out, so they didn’t come.
But he felt at ease only after Qiao Dashan went to the brigade to buy 200 kilograms of food and sent it over.
Seeing the care and concern shown by his family, Qiao Xiazhi's eyes became red involuntarily.
