Father Lu had been staying in the house the whole time. When he heard that someone from the Gu family had arrived, he did not come out to greet them.

After the people left, he saw his wife still cursing at the gate, so he walked out and asked them to go inside and stop cursing.

"I'm just too angry. The old Gu family has lost all their dignity. They actually dared to come to Mingze's house and asked me to tell him when I return to the army? Bah..." Mother Lu was so angry that no matter how she scolded, she couldn't get rid of the anger in her heart.

So he looked at her old man and said, "Let's pack up our things in a while, and when the eldest daughter-in-law comes back from visiting Matchmaker Xie, we'll take a car and leave, so that they won't come and see us again."

"We can hide for the first day, but we can't hide for the fifteenth day. It's not a good idea to hide forever." Father Lu felt that hiding like this was not a good idea. Even if they didn't take the Gu family to the army, the Gu family knew the address and they would go there sooner or later.

"Why do you care so much? Didn't my son-in-law tell us not to lend them money?" When Mother Lu heard what the old man said, she said angrily: "Besides, Mingze has taken Xiaoyan and the children away, so let's not get involved in their affairs."

Although she treated her son-in-law as her own son, the Lu family had no right to interfere in the affairs of her son-in-law's family.

So they just follow whatever their son-in-law does.

This will save them from having to do thankless work and letting their son-in-law bother them, which would be like eating the radish and worrying about nothing.

"Okay, I get it. Let's go inside quickly." Father Lu felt that what his wife said made sense, so he nodded, indicating that he understood. He told her not to continue scolding at the door and to go into the yard quickly.

Gu Mingze and the others didn't know that as soon as he left, his father and elder brother went to the Dongfeng Brigade to look for him.

When they arrived at the commune, the state-owned restaurant and supply and marketing cooperative were still closed.

The family could only wait at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative for a while until it opened.

Gu Mingze bought some food and gifts for his wife and two children, and then asked his wife and children to wait for him at the door.

He quickly went to the factory to find Liu Dayong, handed the bicycle and the things in his hand to him, chatted for a few words, and then hurried back to the supply and marketing cooperative, taking his wife and children to take a bus to the county.

When a few people got on the bus full of gasoline and arrived at the county, they all said that they would first find a state-owned restaurant to eat, and then take the bus to the city.

"Okay, then let's go eat first, and then we can go after dinner." Gu Mingze looked at his wife and two sons who looked a little unhappy, nodded, took the things from his wife's hand, and asked his wife to hold the two sons, while he could carry the things himself.

"I really can't get used to riding this kind of bus so early in the morning." Every time Lu Qingyan returned home and took this kind of bus, her stomach felt like it was churning. It was really uncomfortable.

"Hold on a little longer. We'll take another bus after dinner and we'll be fine when we get to the destination." Gu Mingze felt sorry for his wife and children when he saw them in pain, but if they didn't take a bus, they wouldn't be able to get to the city.

So just hold on a little longer, wait until you get to the destination, find a guesthouse, and have a good rest, and you'll be fine.

"Well, let's go. I want to eat wontons. Eating them hot will definitely make my stomach feel good." Lu Qingyan nodded, holding her son in one hand, and walked quickly behind her husband.

After finding the state-owned restaurant, they went in and put their things away.

Gu Mingze went forward and ordered two servings of wontons, two servings of meat soup noodles, and seeing that there was braised pork, he ordered another serving of braised pork and a serving of stir-fried vegetables.

After about ten minutes, the wontons, meat soup noodles, braised pork and stir-fried vegetables were all ready.

Lu Qingyan and Gu Mingze went over and brought all the food over before sitting on the stools and starting to eat.

"Huh~, my stomach feels much better now." Lu Qingyan took a sip of wonton soup from the bowl, and breathed a sigh of relief when she felt the warmth in her stomach.

"You feel much better now, so eat more. Their braised pork is quite delicious." Seeing this, Gu Mingze smiled and put two pieces of meat in the bowl for his wife, and also put some meat in the bowl for his two sons.

After the meal, the two adults and two children, all with bulging stomachs, carried their things and continued to take the bus to the city.

This ordeal didn't take long. When they arrived in the city, Lu Qingyan and the two children didn't feel any discomfort in their stomachs because they had eaten.

In this way, several people booked a room in a guesthouse near the train station and moved in.

"This room is too small. Why don't you open another one?" Lu Qingyan walked into the room, looked at the narrow room, frowned and said to the man

"No, we can just sleep sideways and squeeze together. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease if I move out." Gu Mingze heard his wife's words and shook his head without thinking.

Gu Mingze saw that he had finished speaking, and his wife wanted to say something, so I interrupted her and said, "Okay, stop talking, it's a chaotic time now. There will be people checking the room in the middle of the night. If I don't sleep here, I won't be able to sleep all night."

"Okay, then we can just sleep together. We won't sleep together for two days anyway. I think the day after tomorrow, my parents should be able to come and see us." Seeing the man said so, Lu Qingyan had no choice but to nod and agree to let the man sleep with them.

"Mom, I'm sleepy. Let me sleep with my brother first. If you go out, wake us up, okay?" Seeing that they had arrived at the place and didn't need to bother, Gu Jingming yawned, took his brother's hand, looked at his mother and said

"Okay, go to sleep. Mom won't leave." After hearing what her son said, Lu Qingyan took off their coats and said gently, "Mom will pack up and go to bed later. Don't worry that your father and I will leave you here."

"We didn't think so." Gu Jingming blushed slightly and said a little embarrassedly when he saw that his thoughts were exposed by his mother.

"Okay, go to bed." Seeing this, Lu Qingyan smiled and rubbed her two sons' heads, asking them to go to bed.

Afterwards, he asked Gu Mingze to fetch some hot water and gently poured some on his handkerchief.

After the handkerchief became wet and warm, Lu Qingyan went to bed, wiped the faces and hands of her two sons, and let them sleep comfortably.

"Wife, lock the door from the inside. I'm going to the department store to buy a porcelain plate for sugar. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient for us to wash." When Gu Mingze saw his wife's actions, he realized that they didn't have a washbasin to wash their faces and feet. He asked his wife to lock the door while he went out to buy things.

"Don't buy it, okay? We can just make do for two days. Let's keep those industrial tickets for when we get home." Lu Qingyan hesitated after hearing what her husband said.

After all, industrial tickets are hard to come by now, and you need to use them to buy anything, so you should save as much as possible.
