Jiang Junrong and Zhou Wenjing chatted for a while, then started fiddling around to see what they could send to Jiang Jinxiu in Guangxi Province.
While packing, Zhou Wenjing suddenly said to Jiang Junrong, "Honey, how about I go to Guangxi Province during the New Year? I should have a two-week vacation then. If I ask for a few more days off, I can go see our daughter and son."
The more Zhou Wenjing spoke, the brighter her smile became.
"What will I do if you leave?" Jiang Junrong said, sounding somewhat aggrieved.
He wanted to see his two children, but his wife had gone, leaving him all alone.
It's the Lunar New Year, and he's all alone. Just thinking about it makes me feel so sad.
Zhou Wenjing didn't even glance at him. The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. She wanted to see what her son-in-law looked like, since he had won over her precious daughter so quickly. If they treated her badly, she would bring them all back with her.
"Okay, it's decided then. I'll ask for a few days off in advance," Zhou Wenjing said resolutely.
As soon as she finished speaking, she started planning what to bring to Guangxi Province, what date to go, when to get the letter of introduction, and how many days of leave to take...
He completely ignored Jiang Junrong standing to the side.
Jiang Junrong felt aggrieved looking at his wife's attitude. His wife only thought about going by herself and never considered taking him with her.
He approached Zhou Wenjing with a wronged expression and said, "Wife, I want to go too."
Zhou Wenjing glanced at him and said, "You? Can you even find the time? Why don't you go to the army and spend the New Year with your comrades?"
Zhou Wenjing really hadn't thought about going with Jiang Junrong, and she wasn't worried at all about whether Jiang Junrong would be lonely.
In previous years, their troops have had a lot of activities during the Spring Festival.
In addition, he is the leader and is much busier than her.
Being able to rest for two or three days is the best they can do.
Jiang Junrong was called away again shortly after he finished tidying up.
Zhou Wenjing was left alone to prepare things for her two children.
...
"Let me see the note first." Gu Xichen stretched out his hand, wanting to see the contents of the note.
It was only then that Jiang Jinhua realized that he had been so focused on listening to his sister that he hadn't even read what was written in the note.
Quickly look down.
Gu Xichen also looked at the note.
Upon seeing the contents of the note, Jiang Jinhua's heart tightened, her face turned deathly pale, and she grabbed Jiang Jinxiu and rushed outside.
The note contained exactly what his sister had said: the people who were coming needed them to meet up with him as soon as possible and rush back to Beijing.
However, he had barely taken a step when Gu Xichen stopped him.
"What are you doing? Get out of the way. Those are our parents. You're not worried about them, but we are."
Jiang Jinhua's eyes reddened with anxiety, and her voice became somewhat hoarse.
Hearing Jiang Jinhua's voice from afar, Liu Caihong was secretly delighted, knowing that Jiang Jinxiu and the others must have seen the note.
He Mei asked her to arrange a meeting with Jiang Jinxiu and the others directly.
That's impossible. He Mei doesn't know how much she means to them, but she knows it herself.
She took it upon herself to change the contents of the note.
Did they want to use her as bait to lure out the Jiang siblings?
They're quite good at it.
She might as well let the Jiang siblings go directly to them.
Based on her understanding of the Jiang siblings, she knew they definitely wouldn't go at the time mentioned above.
I'll definitely rush over as soon as I see the note.
In this way, when the Jiang siblings go there, they can directly run into He Mei and that man.
Hahaha--
You deal with the Jiang siblings first, then I'll call the police...
How wonderful.
The more Liu Caihong thought about it, the more perfect it seemed.
He couldn't help but let out a sinister laugh.
She needed to hurry and lure the police officers guarding the foot of the mountain over there.
Based on her pace, the police arrived just in time.
Now, she can just wait and see what happens.
She will not let any of those who have bullied them get away with it.
hehe--
She smiled maliciously.
After glancing at the Gu family a few more times, she left that corner with cheerful steps.
She has other plans.
...
"Xiaohua, calm down. If something really happens to your parents-in-law, there's no use rushing there now. It's so far. Right now, the priority is..."
Before Gu Xichen could finish speaking, Jiang Jinhua became agitated.
"Calm down? How can you expect me to calm down? Those are my parents." Jiang Jinhua's eyes were filled with tears, which were bright red.
Her voice was trembling with sobs as she spoke.
Gu Xichen knew he wouldn't listen to anything more now, so he said directly, "Do you know what the address written on it is?"
"How should I know? I'm not familiar with this place," Jiang Jinhua shouted anxiously.
Tears were about to fall.
Seeing Jiang Jinhua's attitude, Gu Xichen knew he was anxious, so she didn't argue with him.
Jiang Jinxiu forced herself to calm down. Looking at Gu Xichen's reaction, she realized that she had only seen the first few words and had not read the whole thing.
I don't know what the address on the note is.
She took the note from Jiang Jinhua's hand again and looked at it.
See the address written at the end.
A hint of confusion and bewilderment flashed across her eyes.
The address listed was in Gujia Village, but she didn't know the specifics.
She reached out and asked Gu Xichen, "Xichen, where is this?"
Gu Xichen confirmed the address written on the note, and then explained the exact location of the address to her in detail.
After Gu Xichen's description, she finally knew where the address was.
In their Gujia Village, not far from the foot of the mountain, in a dilapidated thatched hut.
She and Gu Xichen exchanged a glance.
Something doesn't seem right.
If something really happened to their parents, and they were asked to meet up in Beijing, it would be more reasonable for them to meet up in the town.
They met up in Gujia Village, still in that thatched hut—it just didn't feel right.
Jiang Jinhua also heard Gu Xichen's words. He sniffed and said, "You, hiccup..."
He patted his chest to catch his breath before continuing, "Is the place you're talking about a dilapidated thatched hut with four or five other families living nearby? The hut has two rooms, with a small hall in between. The left room, facing the mountain, has collapsed, leaving only the right one..."
Jiang Jinhua described the structure of the house in detail.
Gu Xichen nodded.
Seeing Gu Xichen nod, Jiang Jinhua knew she had spoken to the right person.
He had visited that thatched cottage with Gu Xiliang.
At that time, he was purely curious, so he dragged Gu Xiliang in with him, ostensibly to search for treasure.
But as soon as they went in, they startled the rats inside.
The rats were so numerous they were scurrying about everywhere.
Thinking back on it now still gives me the creeps.
He wasn't afraid of rats, but seeing so many of them all at once was still a bit terrifying.
This is one of the reasons why he remembered that thatched hut.
