After crying, He's mother downstairs calmed down. She hugged He Fenglan for a long time and couldn't speak.
"Mom, actually going to the countryside isn't that scary. I heard from my brother that Nancheng County is close to the sea, and there are very few fields there. You can go fishing and earn some money."
"Fenglan, that's just your brother teasing you. If going to the countryside isn't hard, why are so many people crying and making a fuss about going back to the city? And you know He Chunhua, the eldest daughter of Captain He next door! She also went to the countryside a few days ago. When she came back two days ago, did you see how dark and thin she looked?"
When He's mother saw He Chunhua that day, she almost didn't recognize her. She used to be a chubby girl, but she became so thin after going to the countryside for two months.
"Mom, are you thinking too much? I'm going back to my hometown to work in the countryside, and my brother is working there too! Do you think my brother won't care about me? And you and dad can send me money. I'm afraid I won't be able to buy food even if I have money. He Chunhua is so thin because of hunger. If she has a stepmother, she will have a stepfather. Her stepmother will not send her money to buy food!"
He Fenglan was not afraid of going to the countryside at all. Only those who went to the countryside without family support would suffer. For someone like her whose parents were both high-paid military personnel, she couldn't even endure the hardship she wanted to!
"You are such a beautiful child. You even want your parents to support you."
He's mother has now come to her senses. Since He Fenglan herself is willing to go to the countryside, there is no need for her to object. Nancheng County is their hometown, and her son also works there. She has no worries about going back to Nancheng County to work in the countryside.
At this time, He Xufeng also came down from upstairs.
He was relieved to see his mother regained her composure. His father's behavior the previous day was indeed inappropriate, which was more serious than his grandson's fuss.
"Mom, I just talked to Dad. What he did the other day was indeed wrong. Please be magnanimous and forgive him this time."
He's mother looked up at He Xufeng. Her son was just like his father, and they both hated him. "Humph! How could your father be wrong? The fault is mine. I shouldn't have talked back to him."
"Mom, Dad made this arrangement for our own good. Our family is in danger right now, so sending Fenglan to the countryside is indeed a temporary solution."
He's mother paused, tears welling up in her eyes again. "He wanted Fenglan to go to the countryside, couldn't he have discussed it with me? He always gives me the cold shoulder, I really spoil him. You don't have to say good things for him, I'm not done with him this time."
"Mom, shouldn't you help Fenglan pack her luggage in advance? And pack up those beautiful little gadgets in your hands and take them with you. Things are not going well in the army lately."
"I'll pack it tomorrow! Can't you stay a few more days when you come back this time? Why are you in such a hurry?" He's mother also knew that her jewelry was a time bomb. Since Mr. He asked his son to take the things away, it proved that they were in danger now.
"My dad told me to leave the day after tomorrow. By the way, Fenglan, go see the principal of your school in a few days and get your diploma as soon as possible."
"Brother, I know." He Fenglan nodded. She knew she was not smart and she just had to listen to her brother.
