In the living room of the Gu family's old house, Gu Tieniu called his eldest son and his family of three and his second son to hold a family meeting.
Gu Sen had already guessed what he was going to say, "Dad, are you going to talk about Mom?"
Gu Zi frowned in confusion, wondering why they were talking about his mother.
"What's the matter, mother?"
Gu Tieniu looked at the people at home, took out the jade pendant from his pocket, and slowly said,
"I found your little brother."
......
After hearing what Gu Tieniu said, Gu Zi stood up and said, "I'll go see my nephews and nieces."
He has a quiet personality and is usually very methodical in his work. He has never been this excited before, and you can tell how restless he is right now.
Gu Zi was five years old when his mother passed away. He still remembers that his mother was pregnant and told him that the baby might be a brother or a sister.
"Azi, you must be a good brother in the future."
But after that, the war broke out. He and his brother were placed in the rear of the army, while his parents went to the battlefield.
He waited and waited, but in the end only his father came back.
My mother and my younger brothers and sisters are all gone.
Who would have thought that the younger brother had been there all along, but was just lost by them.
Now my younger brother is gone, leaving behind several nephews and nieces.
Perhaps because of their blood connection, he already felt a pang of heartache for his nephews and nieces whom he had never met.
Gu Sen held him back and said, "Don't worry, sit down."
He always listened to his brother, so he sat down again after hearing that.
Gu Siyuan's personality is similar to Gu Tieniu's when he was young, more lively, his tone reveals concern,
"Grandpa, how are your brothers and sisters doing?"
Gu Tieniu thought of his children and nodded with a smile, "They are doing well. The eldest and second oldest are admitted to university, the third is in high school, and the fourth and fifth are in elementary school."
"Oh, by the way, Zhimei, the fourth child seems to be still learning to dance. I don't know if you know her. Her name is Gu Dong."
Jiang Zhimei was very surprised. "It turned out to be Gu Dong. She is the main dancer in our song and dance troupe. She is very talented in dancing."
"What a coincidence, the fourth child, Gu Dong, looks more like your mother."
In order to avoid being reminded of her by the sight of things, their family never displayed a photo of their mother-in-law, so Jiang Zhimei never knew what her mother-in-law looked like. Otherwise, she might have become suspicious when she saw Gu Dong.
Gu Tieniu shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. I'm content as long as I can find a few children."
Hearing that the child looked like his mother, Gu Zi wanted to meet him even more.
"Dad, when are we going to see them?"
Gu Siyuan was also curious about his younger brothers and sisters.
He has been an only child for many years and is very envious of other people's families who have many brothers and sisters.
Unfortunately, his second uncle refused to get married and have children, which disappointed him.
He didn't expect that his third uncle, whom he had never met, was so fertile and gave him five younger brothers and sisters.
I heard that the eldest child is younger than him, so he must be the eldest brother.
"Grandpa, are we going to visit my younger brothers and sisters tomorrow? I'm the eldest brother, so I have to prepare gifts for them."
Gu Zi was thinking silently about what gift he could give. As the second uncle, the gift couldn't be worse than what his eldest brother Gu Siyuan gave.
As soon as the two looked at each other, they knew what the other was thinking, and there was a faint spark of competition.
Gu Sen and Jiang Zhimei were the principals, and they had to preside over this matter. Gu Sen interrupted their eye contact and said,
"Dad, since we're recognizing our relatives, we have to have an attitude of recognizing our relatives. First, we have to let my younger brother recognize his ancestors and return to his roots. We have to build two new graves in the cemetery, one for my younger brother and his wife."
Jiang Zhimei thought of her encounter with Gu Chun. "Then there are a few children. I've met Gu Chun, and he's quite a thoughtful kid. We can't force people to do things against their will. We need to listen to what the children have to say."
"Tomorrow, our whole family will go and bring gifts. More importantly, we must respect the children."
Jiang Zhimei has come into contact with many children in the children's song and dance troupe. She knows how serious children's rebellious psychology can be, so she always emphasizes the importance of listening to children's opinions.
The arrangements for the eldest son and daughter-in-law had already been made, and Gu Tieniu nodded with satisfaction.
-
The next day, the family took a leave of absence to go and meet their relatives.
This made Gu Tieniu's colleagues curious. What big thing had happened that required their entire family to take leave together?
"Could it be the anniversary of his wife's death? You all know how much Gu Tieniu cares about his wife."
"Definitely not. I even remember his wife's death anniversary. It's not this time."
"So what's going on that requires their whole family to take leave? Gu Sen and his team were supposed to have a drill for new recruits at the military headquarters today, but he didn't even go."
“.......”
By this time the family had already set off in two cars, and no one was aware that others were discussing their unusual behavior.
They soon arrived at Gu's house. Gu Tieniu got out of the car and knocked on the door.
No one in the Gu family went out today.
After all, it is a big day for recognizing relatives, and no one can be absent.
Little Zhuzi only knew that Grandpa Gu was coming to their house to play again today, and rushed to open the door. Gu Chun shook his head and said helplessly,
"Then go ahead."
This silly boy, didn't he see that no one wanted to go here? He was just afraid that he wouldn't know what to say when he saw someone.
Gu Tieniu heard a childish voice, "Is Grandpa Gu here?"
The voice automatically softened, "Yes, Grandpa Gu is here, Xiao Zhuzi, open the door."
This is a big wooden door that needs to be opened with a bolt. Xiao Zhuzi has small hands and it took him several tries to open it.
I opened the door and saw, "There are so many people."
He looked up and saw a tall man in a full military officer's uniform at first sight. He looked a little fierce, but the look in his eyes was kind.
