Chapter 854: Long Xing Becomes an Unsolved Case
The next day, Lu Sanmao returned from the neighboring county, but still found no news about Long Xing.
No one was found alive or dead, and Long Xing became an unsolved case.
On the 22nd, there were too many children in the family, and they were afraid that their eldest daughter-in-law would not be able to take care of them, so Father and Mother Lu returned to the army.
"Mom, this is too weird."
Xu Zijin was surprised to hear that there was no news about Long Xing.
She was thinking: How could we not find a living person? Isn’t this too weird?
Disappeared from the human world?
Mother Lu also found it very strange.
But, what if it feels strange?
Anyway, the person is gone, and there is no news from him/her, as if he/she has evaporated from the face of the earth.
Qingmiao and Qingdou were entrusted to Lu Qiumei's care, and the Lu family's life returned to normal.
On August 23, the Municipal Education Commission came to the Gu family and brought rewards. On the same day, the Gu family held a graduation party at the guesthouse.
However, only three tables were set up.
"Sister-in-law, you are too cautious. Gu Nian is so outstanding, can't you prepare a few more tables for her?"
Gu Lichen's family members laughed and said, "That won't work. The army doesn't have this kind of culture. We can't set the example."
Xu Zijin actually understood.
The army has always advocated simplicity. If Chief of Staff Gu, a leader, takes the lead in holding large-scale graduation banquets, it will cause problems if the news gets out.
The three little girls will report to school on August 29th.
Xu Zijin was waiting for An Siqi's notification. If there was still time, she planned to take her whole family with them.
What a coincidence.
As soon as I got home, An Siqi called.
"Zijin, your dad will be home tomorrow, when will you come over?"
Is Dad coming back soon?
It has been more than two years since we last met. Upon hearing this news, Xu Zijin was very excited: "Okay, okay, I'll go right away. I'll ask someone to book a train ticket now."
"good."
There are a lot of people going this time. If the four treasures want to go, then Lu's mother and father must go with them.
Lu Yuzhu, Gu Nian and Qian Lingling naturally wanted to go together.
Also, it is not easy to go to the imperial capital, so this time, Xu Zijin plans to take Liu Ziwang and his three brothers and Qiu Xiaoying and her sister with him.
With so many children going, it is natural for a few adults to go along.
Lu Hanzhou had already asked for leave.
Fearing that he would not be able to take care of them on the road, he brought Gu Rushong with him, leaving only Granny Jiu and Zhu Qiqiao at home.
Grandma Jiu refused to go.
She said she couldn't walk fast.
With such small feet, it was really inconvenient for her to travel far, and Xu Zijin didn't want to force her.
She had made up her mind that in a few years, the whole family would definitely move to the imperial capital, and she wanted to take Grandma Jiu to Tiananmen Square, so there would be plenty of opportunities.
It's easy to get things done if you have connections. The train ticket is at 1:00 p.m. the next day.
All the carriages were sleeper berths, and the Lu family booked half of the carriage.
Although many people went this time, they did not alarm the family compound, except for a few people who should know.
At nine o'clock the next morning, the family divided into four cars and quietly left the army.
"Wow, wow, wow, the train is so big, big brother, look quickly."
The happiest people on this trip were the kids. Liu Zilin became excited as soon as they entered the station.
Liu Ziwang glared at him and reached out to pull him over: "Don't run around, be careful or you might get kidnapped by a kidnapper. It will be too late to cry then."
He's not that stupid.
Liu Zilin thought.
But he didn't dare say it, because his brother was not polite at all when criticizing him.
Because we were military dependents, we checked our tickets in advance in the military waiting room and we got on the bus quickly.
When they got into the carriage, the children did not run around, but the excitement in their eyes could not hide their excitement.
Just waiting for the train to slowly leave the station, the scenery passing by quickly could no longer control the screams of the children...
"Wow, there are so many cows."
"There are sheep over there, look."
"It's here and here too, Uncle Six, take a look."
"Ahhh, Niu Niu, mommy, look, there's a Niu Niu."
Sibao also started shouting.
As soon as she called, Erbao also got anxious: "Geese! Dad, look, there are geese, big white geese!"
Isn’t it?
In the fields by the roadside, a group of large white geese were foraging for food.
When Qiu Xiaoli saw that Erbao liked the big white goose so much, she immediately said, "Erbao, follow me and say: Goose, goose, goose! The goose sings with its neck raised to the sky. Its white feathers float on the green water, and its red feet stir the clear waves."
Qiu Xiaoli led the way, and all four children started to recite nursery rhymes, and the carriage suddenly became a children's poetry competition...
The children had endless energy, shouting, laughing and making noise all the way without stopping.
But by around ten o'clock in the evening, the children, who had eaten and drunk their fill, all fell asleep.
"You should get some sleep first."
Xu Zijin washed his face and entered the car.
Lu Hanzhou shook his head: "I'm not sleepy, you go to sleep."
Xu Zijin smiled and said, "I have been sleeping since six o'clock, so I am not sleepy now."
"You take a nap, I'll just watch them."
Lu Hanzhou wanted to say he didn't want to sleep, but he knew that if he said that, his wife would disagree, so he fell down and fell asleep.
This is an express train, but even the express trains of this era are not that fast.
It was already 3:30 in the afternoon when we arrived at the Imperial Capital Railway Station.
"dad!"
As soon as I got off the bus, I saw Xu Zhenzhong standing on the platform.
After not seeing each other for more than two years, Xu Zhenzhong's eyes lit up when he saw his daughter and a group of children.
"How do we divide the four treasures?"
"Hurry up, let grandpa hug you, let grandpa hug you."
Xu Zijin smiled and pulled the four siblings over, introducing them one by one: "Dad, the one with the bowl cut is Dabao, and the one with the flat head is Erbao."
"The one wearing children's clothes is the third treasure, and the one wearing a bun is the fourth treasure."
"My dears, come and call grandpa, this is your grandpa!"
The four children had already said the word "grandfather" many times at home. As if by telepathy, the four brothers and sisters said in unison: "Hello, Grandpa!"
"Oh, good, good, good!"
The sweet call of "Grandpa" from the grandmother made Xu Zhenzhong burst into tears...
After the children recognized their grandfather, Xu Zijin introduced everyone to Xu Zhenzhong, and everyone greeted him.
"Let's go home. Grandma and Grandpa and Grandma are waiting for you at home."
Knowing that they were coming, the two elders of the Xu family bought some food early, and after lunch An Siqi went back to the nursing home to help.
In the past two years, An Siqi has come several times and the four treasures know her.
As soon as they met, the four brothers and sisters rushed over and called her "Grandma, Grandma" in their baby voices. An Siqi was so happy that she almost cried.
"My dears, you have grown taller again!"
"Come quickly, this is Grandpa... this is Grandma..."
The four treasures still said in unison: "Hello, Grandpa, Hello, Grandma!"
The two elders of the Xu family were stunned when the four treasures came in.
——So handsome! Their great-grandson must be the most handsome kid in the imperial capital!
Especially the words "Hello, Grandpa, Hello, Grandma," made the two elders burst into tears: "Hello, Hello, all good."
"Auntie Wu, please serve some tea and some delicious food to my dear grandson!"
