Gu Lao Er: "Yes, it's not convenient to go now. We'll go together tomorrow to pick up Dad from the hospital."
"Second brother, when did Dad wake up? Is he alright?" The eldest brother's voice was a little hoarse.
"He just woke up today. When I arrived, he was already awake and was about to have a full body check-up."
"Is there anything he needs? What should we bring over tomorrow? Or should we go and trade with Aunt Pang and the others for an old hen, and make a pot of chicken soup to help him recover?"
“Mom said there’s no need for that. Dad will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. He’s doing very well now.”
"Didn't he just wake up? How can he be discharged from the hospital?"
You'll see when you see it tomorrow.
Gu Lao Er said somewhat mysteriously.
He's really happy now, and the more he talks, the more radiant he becomes, as if he's a completely different person.
Jiang Jinxiu went straight to the post office after leaving the hospital.
The first thing she wanted to do when Gu Dashan woke up was to write a letter to Gu Xichen to tell him the good news.
She knew that Gu Xichen had always wanted to know what had happened to Gu Dashan back then, and he desperately hoped that Gu Dashan could wake up.
Like all boys, he had always admired his father, Gu Dashan, since he was a child.
A large part of the reason he joined the army was because of his father, Gu Dashan. He must be very happy to hear that his father has woken up.
Jiang Jinxiu thought to herself.
Unfortunately, the post office was already closed when she arrived, so she had to mail the letter the next day.
Unbeknownst to her, on the road from Nanliu City to Punan Town, a young man dressed in tattered clothes was being chased by a group of middle-aged women.
That's right, the person being chased was Jiang Jinxiu's younger brother, Jiang Jinhua.
The woman leading the group shouted, "Young man, don't run away! You're so handsome, come live with us as our son-in-law. We'll make sure you eat and drink well. I can even give you a dowry."
"Yeah, yeah, stop running, we're tired even if you're not."
"Don't run away, young man. My daughter works at a meat processing plant. She'll make sure you have meat to eat every day. She'll fatten you up."
The people chasing behind shouted as they ran.
"Stop pursuing me. I'm still young and don't want to get married. My dad will break my legs."
Jiang Jinhua was truly devastated at this moment. He had been hiding for so many days, yet he was still discovered by these people.
He kept running wildly, not knowing how long he ran before he finally shook off the large group of women behind him.
Fortunately, he ran fast this time and wasn't caught by those people.
Arriving here, his entire worldview was shattered.
His family already favors girls over boys enough, but I never imagined there would be an only child here. Their pampering of their daughter is even more terrifying.
That woman is really strange; she just glanced at him once and thought he liked her.
They insisted on making him a live-in son-in-law.
He's only a sixteen-year-old kid, okay?
He was just too hungry and wanted to beg for food.
They actually tricked him into going inside, wanting him to consummate his marriage with that big, burly woman.
Thank goodness.
Luckily, he ran fast.
At this moment, he was truly grateful and thankful to his father for sending him to the military camp for training when he was young; otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to escape this time.
He strongly suspected that her sister was too beautiful when she went to the countryside, which is why that bastard kidnapped her and made her his wife.
At this moment, he was imagining countless dramatic scenarios.
His sister refused, but the rough man carried her home anyway.
His sister was bullied by that rural laborer, and by her mother-in-law...
The more I think about it, the more upset I feel.
Sister, you have to hold on, wait for me, I will definitely find you, I will definitely rescue you.
At this moment, he despised himself. His parents had repeatedly told him to be careful and to remember which station he got off at.
He even managed to get off at the wrong stop.
No, we should blame those train stations; why did they have to pronounce their names so similarly?
Walking on the dark road, Jiang Jinhua was tired, hungry, and worried about his sister.
"Sister, how much longer until I get there?"
He shouted to the sky.
Unfortunately, no one responded to him.
The only response he received were the birds that he had startled into flight.
Exhausted from walking, Jiang Jinhua fell asleep right by the roadside, accompanied by the swarms of mosquitoes that are so prevalent in summer.
The next morning, Jiang Jinxiu went to the post office to mail a letter to Gu Xichen.
She received letters from her parents at the same time she sent the letter.
Her younger brother, Jiang Jinhua, came to see her.
However, it only takes seven or eight days at most to get from Beijing to Punan Town.
According to her parents, her younger brother had been gone for more than half a month, but she hadn't seen him come back.
Jiang Jinxiu was both puzzled and worried.
She took the letter and rushed to the train station to see if she could run into Jiang Jinhua, but to no avail.
I went to the train station platform to ask, but I couldn't get any answers.
She was extremely worried; at that moment, she felt like a headless fly, not knowing what to do.
She was terrified that something would happen to her brother.
In her previous life, she didn't stay in the countryside for long, and neither did her younger brother.
She was truly at a loss.
"Meow meow meow..." Master, how about I and Xiao Hei go out and help you look for it?
Jiang Jinxiu's eyes lit up. That's right, she still had them: "Where are you going to look for them? I'll go with you."
"Meow meow meow... Master, do you have any items your brother used or clothes he wore?"
Jiang Jinxiu shook her head. She had only been in the countryside for a few months, and her younger brother had never visited. How could she possibly have his things?
