"I've made some dry food for you. Put it in your bag when you leave. If the two children drink something on the way, give it to them." After serving the food, Mother Lu did not sit in the living room. When she saw her daughter leading the two children out in the yard, she looked at them and said,

"No need to bring it to us. When we get to the commune, we can just go to the state-owned restaurant and buy some." When Lu Qingyan heard her mother's words, she shook her head and refused.

"Just bring it with you if I tell you to. Why waste so much time talking?" When Mother Lu heard her daughter's refusal, she glared at her and whispered, "I know you have two dollars in your pocket, but this time is different. You must bring the dry food I made for you. Do you hear me?"

"I know, I know." Lu Qingyan heard this, and she didn't know why her mother said that, but she still nodded and agreed to take it with her.

"That's what I was thinking. Your sister-in-law just married into our family. We have to do everything we should do. Otherwise, when we come back next time, her attitude might change." Seeing her daughter like this, Mother Lu looked around like a thief, and then explained to her daughter in a low voice.

"You're right. Should I go wash up now?" Lu Qingyan felt a little amused when she saw her mother like this, but she still said that she had to hurry up and wash up, otherwise it would be bad if people were waiting for them to eat.

"It's OK that you understand. Go wash up quickly." Seeing that her daughter understood her painstaking efforts, Mother Lu touched the heads of the two children with a look of satisfaction, turned around and sat in the main room, waiting for her daughter and grandson to finish washing up and come over to eat together.

Seeing this, Lu Qingyan quickly finished washing up with the two children, went into the main room and told everyone to eat quickly and not to wait for them.

Seeing this, Mr. Lu picked up his chopsticks, picked up some food and started eating.

Lu Qingshan has been used to this since he was a child. If his younger sister didn't come to eat, his parents would definitely let everyone wait for her to come to eat, so he was used to this situation today.

Liu Fang didn't feel anything about this situation. Instead, she thought the Lu family was very good.

You have to know that when she was at her parents' home, or her husband's home, she would wait until the men and elders finished their meal before she went to the table to eat the leftovers.

So after she married into the Lu family, she felt particularly satisfied when the Lu family respected them as women.

As for other emotions? There weren't any at all.

She even felt that being able to marry into the Lu family was a blessing she had earned in her previous life.

She should cherish her present life and not worry about useless things.

If that happens, it will only destroy everyone's feelings and will not be of any benefit to yourself.

So she lives her life honestly and doesn't care about things that seem not a big deal to her. That is the only way to make her life better and better.

Just like that, after dinner, everyone cleaned up together. Lu Qingshan gave his brother-in-law a few words of instructions before turning around to go to work in the fields.

Section 107

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Qingyan called Gu Mingze into the house to get his things, and said hello to her parents and sister-in-law.

Under the reluctant gaze of his two nephews, he left the Dongfeng Brigade on his bicycle.

"I feel annoyed when there are too many people around, but now that they have left, I feel a little uncomfortable." Although Mother Lu knew that she would be able to see her daughter and grandson again in a few days, she still felt a little uncomfortable when they left right before her eyes.

"It's okay. We'll go in two days. For the next two days, let's stay at home and spend time with our grandson." When Father Lu heard what his wife said, he comforted her in a low voice.

"I know it all. It's a good thing that my daughter and son-in-law left. If they didn't leave, and someone from the Gu family came looking for them today, it would be troublesome." Mother Lu's words were simply a jinx.

At noon, Gu Mingtao drove a ox cart and brought Old Man Gu to the Lu family.

"Hey, isn't this my in-law? Come in, come in." Mother Lu was drying wild vegetables in the yard. When she looked up and saw someone suddenly appear at the door, her face darkened slightly, but she still quickly greeted him with a smile.

"Mother-in-law, we came here suddenly because we have something urgent to do with the fourth son. Do you think it is possible to call him out?" Old Man Gu did not have time to chat with his mother-in-law. He directly said that he had something to do with Gu Mingze and asked his mother-in-law to call him out.

"My dear, you came at an unfortunate time. Mingze and Xiaoyan left with their two children before dawn this morning. They said that the army suddenly sent a telegram asking Mingze to return quickly." When Mother Lu heard what Old Man Gu said, she clapped her hands and said, "What a coincidence!" The people were already gone.

"Then why didn't he say he was leaving today when he came home yesterday?" Hearing this, Old Man Gu looked at Mother Lu in disbelief and frowned as he asked.

"He received the telegram when he came back from the Ma family brigade. If you don't believe me, you can ask my son and daughter-in-law." Mother Lu would never say that her daughter and son-in-law were hiding from them because they were afraid that they would come looking for them.

"Why didn't the mother-in-law go with them? Does she not plan to go over to look after their children?" Although Old Man Gu still didn't believe what Lu's mother said, he could only ask other questions since she said so.

"Oh, didn't my eldest son just marry a new wife? She's only been married for two days, so my old man and I can't leave, right? We have to stay with her for a while." Upon hearing this, Mother Lu didn't say whether she would go to the army or not. Instead, she said that her eldest son had just married and they had to stay at home with the new wife.

"Your eldest son got married first? Why didn't he inform us? It would be embarrassing if we, as in-laws, don't come to the wedding and let others know." When Old Man Gu heard his mother-in-law say that his eldest son had just married, he immediately said with an unhappy face.

"This is a second marriage, and it's not a glorious thing. I just invited my family to have fun, and I didn't tell anyone else." After saying this, Mother Lu seemed to have just realized something and greeted the people and asked them to come into the house quickly.

"I have something else to do at home, so I won't go in." Old Man Gu waved his hand, hesitated for a while, and then looked at Lu's mother and said, "Mother-in-law, when will you and my in-laws return to the army? Can you go to the Majia Brigade to tell me when the time comes? I was thinking that I didn't bring the children to see us when I came back, so I, as a grandfather, should go to see them in person."

When Mother Lu heard this, her heart choked, but she still said stiffly: "We don't know about this. How about when my old man and I go to the army, I will tell you?"

"Okay, then just don't forget it. I have something else to do at home, so I'll leave first." Old Man Gu was immediately satisfied when he heard his mother-in-law agreed to him. He said hello to her and smiled as his eldest son went home.

"Bah! I told you when I returned to the army? Why should I tell you? Ask Mingze for money? Do you really think I'm a fool?" When Mother Lu saw that Old Man Gu and the other man had walked a long way away, she spat on the ground and stood there cursing angrily.

"Everyone has left, so don't be angry and come in quickly."
