Throughout the winter vacation, Jiang Yun became the supreme commander among the children in the Zhang family compound.
She can arrange new game tasks every day and have a lot of fun playing them!
We played expansion training outdoors, and taught everyone to do plank competitions in the house. We also asked my uncles to help build a woodshed in the yard to imitate the command post in the movie and analyze the hunting route map of the forest farm.
Laoyinggou Forest Farm is like a paradise, where life is peaceful and happy.
Jiang Jun's relationship with her grandmother's family is so good that it's as if they had never been apart. She also saw the shadows of her parents from that time and space in Wang Hailiu's parents. The initial entanglement and pain when she knew she could not go back to the past gradually faded away.
A winter seemed to have passed in the blink of an eye, and before I could even begin to savor it, Jiang Yonghua's letter arrived: school had started, and Jiang Jun and Jiang Lan had to go back to class. He had a mission and could not pick the sisters up in time. He asked Zhang Jinxi to help send the sisters back to the army, otherwise he would have to ask for leave from school.
Everyone in the Zhang family looked at Jiang Yun with admiration. No matter how reluctant they were to see the two sisters leave, when it came to attending classes, how could they dare to delay for even a moment?
Without thinking, he immediately nominated Zhang Jinbao to send Jiang Yun and Jiang Lan home.
Grandma, grandfather, uncle and second uncle wanted to give Jiang Yun all the food they could bring from home. Immortal Lu even specially sent Jiang Yun a small package containing an old ginseng and a pair of jade stones engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns, saying that they were for the general and his wife to enjoy. Jiang Yun did not refuse and kept them carefully.
Zhang Jinxi warmly invited: "Dani'er, come back during summer vacation. I'll go deep into the mountains to dig up some wild delicacies for you two sisters to taste!"
Wang Hailiu also patted his chest and promised: "Come back in the summer, I will teach you how to pick fruit from trees and swim and fish in the river!"
Hong Guizhen was most reluctant to see Jiang Yun go back, and her tears never stopped: "I finally managed to walk a few steps, and you're going back again!"
Jiang Yun hugged his grandmother and promised solemnly: "Grandma, just wait, in a few years I will take you to live with me! Then you can all come to my house as guests!"
She loves all the relatives in her grandmother's family, but she is the one she is most reluctant to leave!
Having had the experience of riding the green train once, Jiang Jun felt that he was familiar with the route and did not send a telegram to Jiang Yonghua. He volunteered to take his second uncle Jiang Lan to buy tickets and catch the train, and they embarked on the return journey smoothly.
What was different from when they came was that the sisters Jiang Jun and Jiang Lan's accents had changed. They spoke Tongcheng dialect with a strong forestry accent, and occasionally spoke a few words of Xian ethnic group. At first glance, they looked no different from the locals.
On the train, Jiang Jun noticed that her second uncle Zhang Jinbao could chat with people in Shandong dialect. Only then did she realize that she could even understand Shandong dialect, and she couldn't help but admire herself.
They returned to the compound after a long journey. When they entered the house, Jiang Yonghua had just picked up Zhang Xiuying. The family was surprised and happy to see each other.
Zhang Jinbao and Zhang Xiuying had the best relationship when they were young. He came here with a mission this time, which was to persuade Zhang Xiuying to treat Jiang Jun well. After all, Jiang Jun was the most promising and promising person identified by Lu Daxian!
When Zhang Xiuying saw Zhang Jinbao, she immediately felt supported: "Youngest, come to work with me. The chemical factory is hiring again. I heard that if you become a regular employee, your household registration will be transferred."
The chemical plant was under construction. Zhang Xiuying was exhausted every day and often quarreled with her colleagues over trivial matters. She had only been working for three months and had already had two big fights with her colleagues. If there hadn't been other people to hold them back, they would have fought.
Seeing Zhang Jinbao coming, it was as if they had found an accomplice, and they insisted that Jiang Yonghua tell the leader to arrange for Zhang Jinbao to work in the factory as well.
Zhang Jinbao had never expected such a good opportunity. It was like pie in the sky. Back home, he was working as a farmer and eating from a large pot, often going hungry. If he could work in the city, get a salary and a household registration, his family's life would be greatly improved. He was just looking forward to it and agreed immediately: "Okay, I'll send a telegram back to tell my family!"
With only his two daughters left at home with no one to take care of them, Jiang Yonghua was a little worried: "Xiaojun, I've been very busy lately. I live in the office most of the time. Sometimes I have to go on missions, and I can be gone for a month at a time. Can you guys handle it on your own? How about asking your mother to come back and take care of you?"
Jiang Yun was still worried that Jiang Yonghua's salary was not enough, and he didn't want his family to go back to the way things were before, so he firmly refused: "Dad, I can cook, and I can take good care of Jiang Lan!"
She is now very strong. She can do a plank for one and a half minutes and hold a handstand for ten minutes. She has no problem doing housework and taking care of her younger sister.
Jiang Lan trusted Jiang Yun immensely at this point and immediately agreed: "I can cook with you, sister. I can chop wood, light a fire, and even wash dishes!"
Zhang Xiuying was dissatisfied with Jiang Yonghua's proposal. Seeing Jiang Lan agreeing with Jiang Yun, her hostility was immediately apparent. She said provocatively, "Xiaolan, why are you so estranged from me after visiting grandma for a few days? Don't you want to be with Mom anymore?"
Jiang Lan looked at Jiang Yun, then moved to Zhang Xiuying's side: "Mom, I miss you so much at grandma's house. It's snowing so heavily that I can't go out, otherwise I would have wanted to come back a long time ago!"
In fact, I don’t want to come back at all. The forest farm is so fun. What should I do if I come back and am forced to listen to my mother saying bad things about my sister?
"Xiuying, you stay with Dabao and talk. I'll go cook." Jiang Yonghua rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen. "Dabao, no one's been home for a few days, so there aren't many dishes. Just eat something casually. I'll buy some meat and make dumplings tomorrow."
Jiang Lan jumped up and said, "Dad, my second uncle brought some bear meat. Shall we eat some? My eldest uncle also gave my sister two bear gallbladders!"
Jiang Jun glanced at Jiang Lan, picked up the bag and walked towards his room: "Dad, I'm going back to the room to collect the luggage."
Jiang Yonghua nodded and said, "Okay, the new small bathhouse at the division headquarters is ready for use. It will open the day after tomorrow. Take Xiaolan there and have a good bath."
In the north, especially in winter, taking a hot bath is a big deal. The army has good welfare, and the bathhouse is open two days a week in winter, Sunday for men and Monday for women.
Jiang Yun couldn't wait. After a long train journey back, he was covered in dust and sweat. His hair was almost greasy. "Dad, boil some water so I can wash my hair."
Jiang Yonghua was a clean person, so he agreed immediately: "I'll light the kang, and the room will be warm in a while. You can just clean it up at home and keep warm."
Zhang Jinbao watched as the family split into two camps: Jiang Yonghua and Jiang Jun, father and daughter, were discussing matters, while Zhang Xiuying and Jiang Lan, mother and daughter, huddled together, whispering to each other. He wanted to talk to Zhang Xiuying, but he was afraid of causing unhappiness the moment he entered the house. He swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue, figuring he'd have plenty of opportunities to ask her again once he got a job.
Jiang Jun opened his little room, and his first reaction was to run to the window to draw the curtains. Seeing that there was no piece of paper in the crack of the window, he remembered that when he went to his grandmother's house earlier, he had told Chen Yuefei that he was going on a long trip.
