423: Just wait for a good life in the future
Yu Xiaoye took his second brother and Cuihua, and the three of them headed north for seven days before finally arriving at Mishan Railway Station.
After being away for half a month and coming back, it seemed that winter had suddenly arrived in the Great Northern Wilderness.
After getting off the bus, the three of them felt cold.
At this time, Cuihua had changed out of her patched clothes and put on Yu Xiaoye's new clothes.
Cuihua's figure is similar to Yu Xiaoye's, so she can wear Yu Xiaoye's clothes.
After getting off the bus, Yu Erye, carrying his luggage, asked nervously:
"Xiao Ye, what do you think our parents' reaction would be when they see Cuihua?"
Yu Xiaoye was wondering what the reaction would be. First of all, the brother and sister would inevitably scold each other, but no matter how much they scolded, they would definitely not drive Cuihua away.
The person has already been brought here, how can you refuse him?
A ready-made daughter-in-law!
"Don't worry, second brother, I'll take care of anything."
Yu Erye shook his head and said decisively:
"No, I'll take the blame. I'll take the beatings and scoldings!"
"Second brother, be righteous!"
Cuihua heard the brother and sister talking. On the way, she already knew that this time the brother and sister came back to take her without telling their parents, so among the three of them, Cuihua was the most nervous one.
She knew the temper of her future in-laws, which was no less than that of Old Lady Wu.
So Cuihua was mentally prepared to be beaten and scolded.
She also knew that being a daughter-in-law was not easy. When she got married, her parents had the final say. Being beaten and scolded by the mother-in-law was normal. Every daughter-in-law had to go through some trials and tribulations after entering the family.
Fortunately, she has Erye. As long as Erye treats her well, she has the courage to deal with all difficulties.
Moreover, the sister-in-law was very kind to her. She gave her new clothes along the way and bought her things, including all kinds of delicious food.
On the way from south to north, Cuihua felt that she had eaten all the delicious food she had never tasted in her life.
With Erye and Ono around, Cuihua felt like she had someone to rely on and felt much more at ease, so even if her parents-in-law suffered some hardship, it was no big deal.
The three people got off the train and started walking towards the county town without rest.
Yu Xiaoye planned to go and say hello to Zhou Ziheng first, so he took them to the outside of the farm compound and said to them:
"Brother, Cuihua, wait for me here, I'll be back soon."
"Go ahead, we'll wait for you here."
Yu Xiaoye walked into the yard alone, carrying her small floral bag.
After Yu Xiaoye left, Cuihua stood at the door, looking at the several imposing buildings inside the courtyard wall, and asked:
"Second brother, where is this?"
Yu Erye didn't know where this was, but there was a white vertical plaque hanging next to the door. Yu Erye looked at the plaque and read out the words word by word:
"The Thirteenth Regiment, Mishan Farm, Office of the Customs and Enforcement Office!"
"What do you mean?" Cuihua knew nothing about what regiment, farm, agency, office or department were.
This place seems to be different from the commune production brigade in their hometown, and some of the terms are difficult to understand.
Yu Erye read the contents of the vertical plaque. He knew all the individual characters, which were taught to him by the company teacher Hong Cheng. However, he did not quite understand the combination of these characters. However, he still knew what "Mishan Farm" meant, so he pretended to be very proficient in explaining it to Cuihua:
"This is the farm's territory anyway."
"Wow, the farm looks so grand!"
Yu Erye's self-esteem was greatly satisfied when he heard Cuihua's exclamation, but he still explained realistically:
"This is not our farm. There is a headquarters under the farm, and there is a company under the headquarters.
We live in the company now. It is very deserted there. You may not see anyone even if you walk seven or eight miles.
Cuihua, let me tell you, the land in the Great Northern Wilderness is different from the land in our hometown. The land in our hometown is as small as a piece of tofu.
Here, if you stand at one end of a field, you can't see where the end is. A furrow stretches for miles, with no end in sight."
"Wow, that's long!"
"That's why it's called the Great Northern Wilderness. Originally, it was all wasteland, covered with weeds. Later, people came and reclaimed the wasteland, turning it into farmland. They set up companies everywhere, and each company managed thousands of acres of land. It's nothing like our hometown, where an entire village only has a few acres of land, and the food each family gets is barely enough to eat."
Cuihua looked at Yu Erye with starry eyes and sighed:
"Second brother, you know so much."
Yu Erye was so happy when he heard Cuihua say this:
"That's right, I understand much better now!"
The two looked at each other, and Cuihua looked away embarrassedly.
Yu Erye stared at Cuihua's face and said:
"Cuihua, follow me and you will have a good life in the future!"
Cuihua smiled:
"Just being with you is enough."
The two men were talking outside the door. On the other side, Yu Xiaoye entered the office building, went upstairs, and came to the outside of the director's office.
She wanted to meet Zhou Ziheng first before going back to avoid Zhou Ziheng worrying about her.
When I arrived outside the office, I heard no movement inside, so I knocked on the door.
"Come in." Zhou Ziheng's voice was full of energy.
Hearing the familiar voice, Yu Xiaoye felt warm in her heart and pushed the door open.
Zhou Ziheng sat at his desk, looking down at something, his expression as serious and gloomy as ever, a typical veteran cadre.
Zhou Ziheng heard someone coming in, but no one spoke, so he raised his head and looked towards the door.
When he looked up, he saw the little girl with a bright smile on her face walking towards him.
He looked surprised and immediately stood up from his seat:
"You're back?"
"I'm back!"
Yu Xiaoye excitedly ran towards Zhou Ziheng, jumping and skipping. Perhaps because he was in such a good mood, he threw himself into Zhou Ziheng's arms.
Zhou Ziheng's heart
Suddenly, he felt the room was filled with spring. He put one hand around the girl's slender waist, and the other hand touched the girl's head, and asked with a smile:
"I was wondering why you stayed back home for so long. Didn't I ask you to send me a telegram in advance so I could arrange your return trip? Why did you come back without saying hello?"
Yu Xiaoye raised her face and said in a coquettish tone:
"My hometown is in a remote area. Where can I send you a telegram? I have to run to the city to send you a telegram. Why would I go back and wait for you to make arrangements? I might as well come back directly. Let me tell you, the documents and letters of introduction you issued for me are really useful. Buying tickets and accommodation along the way was very smooth. When people heard that I was from the Corps, they looked at me differently."
Zhou Ziheng smiled and stared at the little girl without blinking.
The two looked at each other, and kissed each other with a tacit understanding.
After the kiss, Zhou Ziheng asked in a slightly hoarse voice:
"Did you miss me?"
"I thought about it."
"You're talking nonsense. You definitely haven't thought about it."
"I really did. I really missed you, so I ran to see you as soon as I got off the train."
Zhou Ziheng felt very relieved after hearing this:
"You're such a sweet-talker!"
After saying that, he kissed her again.
Yu Xiaoye was afraid that someone would come in, so after kissing and hugging Zhou Ziheng, he pushed him away and took out the bronze badge of "Corps Soldier" from his bag:
"This is back to you."
"It's for you."
Yu Xiaoye also liked this badge very much. When she heard Zhou Ziheng said he would give it to her, she put it back into her bag without hesitation.
"Then I won't be polite to you."
