Chapter 228 Maybe This Is Just the Beginning
Zhu Jun nodded: "Let them decide for themselves, it doesn't matter where they live."
Yu Wanqing looked at Zhu Yun with a smile: "Mother, you are so kind."
After spending some time together, Yu Wanqing discovered that her mother was truly a gentle, caring and loving elder.
Zhu Yun pursed her lips and smiled: "As a family, the most important thing is to be able to sit together and talk and have a meal. The rest is really not important."
After going through so much, these things are really no longer a big deal.
Yu Wanqing and Zhou Chengye waited for a while at the Nanfu Railway Station before they saw their parents, eldest brother and his wife, third brother, and two nephews appear.
The eldest brother was holding a child in one hand, and the eldest sister-in-law was following him with a bag on her back.
My third brother carried a bag on his back and held two things in his hands. My parents also had things in their hands.
Seeing this, Yu Wanqing and Zhou Chengye couldn't help but sigh. Yu Wanqing said, "Second brother, you haven't done enough publicity. I'm asking you to remind our parents not to do so many things."
Zhou Chengye smiled bitterly: "I reminded them, and my parents agreed."
So, agreeing and doing or not are two different things.
The brother and sister had no choice but to accept their fate and quickly stepped forward to take the big bag from their parents' hands.
Yu Wanqing and Zhou Chengye greeted their family members one by one: "Mom and Dad, what did you take? So many bags."
Fortunately, my second brother borrowed a tractor, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to carry all these bags back.
Li Xiulan took a look at her daughter and second son and found that they had both lost some weight. She secretly thought about giving them some weight gain during this time.
"Some of them are clothes for you and your sister, some are gifts from your sister-in-law and I to Qingmei, and some are things for your second brother's engagement." Li Xiulan felt sad when she saw her daughter carrying two large bags and still walking so fast. She didn't know how much hardship this girl had to endure to be so capable.
Yu Wanqing's eyes were always on her two nephews, and they also tilted their heads to try to look at their aunt.
Seeing this, Yu Zhian smiled and said, "In the past year or so since you were away from home, your mother, your eldest sister-in-law, and your third brother often showed your photo to the two children, telling them that this is their aunt."
"They would also tell the children that the things you normally mailed back were bought by your aunt."
So the two children still have a deep impression of their aunt.
Zhang Chunyu also looked over, smiling: "Sometimes when they did something wrong, I would scold them, and the elder brother would pack up his bag and say he was going to look for his aunt."
Hearing this, the two children leaned on their father's shoulders and smiled shyly.
Yu Wanqing was simply fascinated by these two little white balls and couldn't move: "If you like little aunt so much, then stay here for a while."
Zhang Chunyu nodded repeatedly: "Okay, leave them here with my aunt."
"They don't have to think about packing up and running away all the time."
The two children still didn't say anything, nor did they refute, but every time the adults spoke, they would look at their aunt cautiously.
When they met their aunt's gaze, they shyly hid away again.
Zhou Chengye drove a tractor to take them back to the Five-Star Brigade. On the way, Yu Wanqing held both nephews, one on each side, and talked to them.
After a while, the two shy kids had become familiar with their aunt.
Zhang Chunyu couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene: "Blood relatives are so magical sometimes. Even if you haven't seen each other for more than a year, you will become familiar with each other in a short time."
She knew her two children very well and had taught them to be cautious and not to get close to unfamiliar people easily.
To them, their aunt, whom they hadn't seen for more than a year, still seemed a little strange.
But this feeling of strangeness disappeared within ten minutes.
Yu Wanqing smiled when she heard this, saying that sometimes people with the same blood may not necessarily be related.
Nine out of ten times, all closeness is earned with sincerity.
Don’t think that children don’t understand. In fact, children are very sensitive and they can sense who is good or bad to them.
Gao Qingmei, Zhang Hongqi, Guo Hongying and several other female educated youth were worried that the Yu family would bring a lot of luggage, so they were waiting at the village entrance early. When they saw them get off the bus, they hurried forward to help carry the luggage.
We all knew each other, and we became familiar with each other after just a few jokes.
Li Xiulan said: "You kids are really kind-hearted."
He Xiaoyuan was walking in front with a big bag on her back. She turned around and smiled when she heard this: "Auntie, you don't know how good Wan Qing is to us."
"What we have done is far inferior to what Wan Qing has done for us."
Wang Yuping nodded: "Look at us, we are stronger and more powerful than last time, all thanks to Wanqing."
"When Huo Zhiqing was here, there were others who helped share some of the work. Now it is Wanqing who trains us. Her hard work is admirable."
Yu Zhian could see that this group of female comrades had indeed improved their physical fitness a lot compared to the last time they met. This could be seen from the fact that they could walk so fast even with a large bag on their shoulders.
He looked at Yu Wanqing: "Xiao Wu, you did the right thing."
When you meet someone you can get along with, pursue common progress.
Li Xiulan felt proud when she heard everyone praising her daughter, but she still had a gentle smile on her face: "They are all good children."
"Last year and this year, many educated youth went to the countryside. Many children in our compound were also assigned to different places across the country. Within half a month, they would call or write home to complain about how hard life was."
She looked at her daughter and Gao Qingmei and the others and said, "You know how to stick together and advance and retreat together. This is a good thing."
Yu Jiali frowned slightly as he thought about the current situation in the city: "I think there will be many more educated youth going to the countryside. Starting from June this year, some places have already seen compulsory going to the countryside."
Yu Wanqing said faintly: "Maybe this is just the beginning."
"So those of us who took the initiative to go to the countryside are still lucky." Wang Yuping whispered: "We received a lot of subsidies when we went to the countryside. If more people went to the countryside, these subsidies might have disappeared."
Li Xiulan reminded them: "Don't worry about the city's affairs. Live your own life well first. Everyone is always vying for the good places."
"I'm afraid that in the future, there will be people who are too active who come to the educated youth point."
Gao Qingmei frowned slightly: "Probably not in the short term. If more and more educated youth from the city go to the countryside, the Educated Youth Office will definitely not be able to hold on. Sooner or later, they will arrange for the educated youth to come to the Five-Star Brigade."
Zhang Hongqi looked at Guo Hongying and said, "When I'm not at home, no matter what happens, you must consult with everyone. You can't make decisions alone."
She is off today, so she has time to come and pick people up with everyone.
After hearing everyone's speculation, Zhang Hongqi was a little afraid of what this stubborn Guo Hongying might do.
Guo Hongying shook her head quickly: "No, I will consult Wanqing and everyone else if I have any problem."
"I'm not stupid. I know how much I am worth."
