"Dad, you haven't been back for a few years. Are you okay?" Qin Jianye walked forward and saw that his father's hair had turned white at the temples and there were more obvious wrinkles on his face.
The father who had always been a great man in his mind had finally grown old, and his nose couldn't help but feel sore.
The sense of indebtedness towards my family is growing stronger and stronger.
This time when he retires and returns home, he will take good care of his family.
As for the troops, he no longer expected to return.
Old man Qin looked at his son whom he hadn't seen for so many years, and suddenly he was so much taller than him.
His once childish face now has a bit more manly determination, and he looks very masculine. He has really grown up.
Until his eyes fell on Lao Wu's injured arm, he seemed to have guessed the reason why he returned home.
It’s a good thing that the children are returning home, but the reason why they are returning home makes people unhappy.
But he also knew that Jianye definitely didn't want him to talk about his injury too much.
He suppressed his doubts and worries and smiled happily: "I'm in good health, but you all went home one by one without even saying hello in advance, and you didn't prepare yourself at all!"
"Old man, didn't I ask you to serve the dishes? Why does it take you half a day to do just that?" In the kitchen, Old Mrs. Qin had finished cooking the last vegetable and was waiting for the old man to bring all the dishes to the living room.
Seeing that he hadn't come back for a long time, she took a plate of potatoes over.
When she saw Qin Jianye, she didn't react for a moment. She thought it was a comrade from the Fourth Army who came to see her. She first put the dishes on the table and then walked over.
She was about to speak with a smile, but when she saw the tall and strong soldier's face clearly, her smile stopped. She reached out her hand tremblingly and touched Qin Jianye's face: "You...you are Lao Wu?"
Qin Jianye felt the warmth of his mother's palm. He bent down and rubbed his mother's hand, smiling and said, "Mom, I haven't been back for just a few years, why don't people in the family recognize me? Have I changed that much?"
The guard couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Qin Lian, who seemed like a different person after returning home.
Is this the Qin Lian that everyone refers to as the cold-faced and cold-hearted man?
The style of this painting seems a little different!
But Qin Lian looks so humane. Maybe it’s not a bad thing for him to go home.
Although it’s a pity to leave the army, being able to be reunited with my family can be considered a blessing in disguise, right?
He hasn't been home for two years. Sometimes when he misses home, he would take out the sweater his mother knitted for him before going to bed at night, and he could only think of her by looking at the sweater.
"How dare you say that? You haven't been back for so many years. I, this tall mother, can hardly reach your face." Old Mrs. Qin looked at her son who was acting like a spoiled child and finally smiled.
But when she noticed that Lao Wu's hand was injured, she felt distressed: "My little boy, why are you injured? Does it hurt?"
"Old Five, you're back?" The eldest brother Qin Jiandang also came over from the kitchen. When he heard his mother's words, he showed a look of joy.
"Mom, I'm fine. It's normal to get injured in the army. Don't worry about me.
But how come big brother's head is injured?" Qin Jianye looked at the head wrapped in gauze and couldn't help but show concern.
Just as Qin Jiandang was about to speak, Fu Qiumei's voice rang out from outside the courtyard gate: "Old man from the Qin family, my grandson wants to take a ride, can you give him a ride?"
Hearing Fu Qiumei's voice, Old Lady Qin became annoyed, and she said to Qin Jianye: "You stay here, I'll go get rid of that damn old woman."
As she spoke, she walked to the gate of the yard. When she opened the gate, she saw Fu Qiumei standing outside. Her grandson was touching the front of the car excitedly and patting it hard from time to time.
Seeing this, Old Lady Qin immediately shouted, "Fu Qiumei, why don't you take care of your grandson? This is public property. Can you afford to pay for it if it is damaged?"
Fu Qiumei didn't care: "You think this car is made of paper, my grandson is so young, how could he damage the car?
Where is your youngest son? Ask him to open the car door. My grandson wants to ride in the car."
Listening to Fu Qiumei's confident words, Old Lady Qin was so angry that she laughed: "You think you are my son's leader, so you can take the car if you want?
Don't you think you are such a jerk? You still want to ride in a car. I think you are just dreaming."
"How can you talk like that? We are the people and he is a soldier. Shouldn't he serve the people?" Fu Qiumei said angrily.
Old Lady Qin put her hands on her hips and said sarcastically, “It’s true that my son is a soldier, but he is not serving you.
Take your grandson away quickly, or I will chase you away with a broom."
Fu Qiumei ignored her and looked up at the hall facing the courtyard. She could still see Qin Laowu standing there, so she said loudly, "Jianye, I'm your Aunt Fu. I used to tease you when we were little. My grandson wants to ride in the car. Can you give him a ride?"
In the hall, Qin Jianye listened to Fu Qiumei's voice and frowned.
He naturally remembered Fu Qiumei, as it was she who had been mocking him just now.
He was not the kind of person who held grudges, but he had always loved to take advantage of others since he could remember, and he had never had a good impression of her.
I just got back and she came here to make trouble. It's really annoying.
He walked out immediately. At this time, Xie Yuwei said, "Old Five, don't agree to her request. A while ago, her second son, Li Dacheng, almost smashed my eldest brother's head with a stone. Later, the family came to blackmail our family shamelessly."
She was afraid that Lao Wu didn't know the situation and would agree to Fu Qiumei's request, so she couldn't help but say something more.
She used to prefer less trouble than more, but since she figured it out, she has become a person who doesn't like to suffer any loss.
Especially when dealing with the old lady's family, they are so hateful, yet they still want to take advantage of them. They are so shameless.
If I agree to her today, she may make other requests tomorrow, and by then she will be like a dog-skin plaster that I can't get rid of.
Qin Jianye really didn't know about this. He didn't expect that the two families had such an unhappy relationship. He turned around and looked at Xie Yuwei and said, "Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law, I know what to do!"
Even if it weren't for his third sister-in-law, he would never have agreed to Fu Qiumei's request.
"Jianye, you're here. Open the car door and let my grandson get in." When Old Mrs. Fu saw Qin Jianye coming, she thought he had agreed to her request and said with a smile on her face.
Old Lady Qin turned around and looked at her youngest son, and scolded him: "Didn't you say I'll take care of this? Why are you here? Go back to your room and rest."
"Aunt Fu, please take your grandson back quickly. This is a public car and I can't make the decision." Qin Jiandang walked to his mother and looked at Fu Qiumei expressionlessly.
