Chapter 75 Return Home



"Wife, when you get home, stay at your parents' house. When the rain stops, go home to visit my parents." Gu Mingze handed the three train tickets he had just bought to Lu Qingyan, and couldn't help but tell her.

"I understand. You should leave quickly. We will be on the train soon." Lu Qingyan held the train ticket tightly in her hand, but pretended to be relaxed, urging Gu Mingze to leave quickly.

"Then I'll go first. I'll send you a telegram when I get there." Gu Mingze looked at his wife deeply, then turned around and saluted Mr. and Mrs. Lu, saying solemnly:

"Mom and Dad, I'll trouble you two to take care of Xiaoyan."

"It's okay, it's okay. Xiaoyan is our daughter. We promise to take good care of you and make you plump and healthy." Mother Lu looked at her son-in-law who was so serious and waved her hand.

"Then Dad and Mom, Xiaoyan, I'm leaving now. Have a safe journey." After saying this, Gu Mingze strode out of the train station without looking back.

He was afraid that if he turned around, he would not be able to bear to leave when he saw his wife, so he had to be cruel and not look back. He quickly got into the car and let the driver drive away.

"Alright, stop looking. There's no sign of anything." Mother Lu said unhappily as she looked at her daughter who was still staring at the exit.

"Hey, Mom and Dad, let's get on the bus." Lu Qingyan smiled embarrassedly. Just then she heard the ticket check in the distance, so she pulled her mother, took her small bag, and followed the two elders into the bus.

Because Gu Mingze bought sleeper tickets for them, the three of them lay down on the beds and fell into a deep sleep after getting on the train. When they woke up, it was already pitch dark outside.

"Mom, please accompany me to the toilet." Lu Qingyan touched her belly carefully and said to her mother sitting opposite her.

"Okay, go slowly. The ground is full of water. You have to be careful." Mother Lu stood up and carefully supported the man, and couldn't help but remind him.

"I know. I'm fine now. I just need to take good care of myself later." After Lu Qingyan went to the toilet, she touched her aching stomach.

She couldn't help but think of Gu Mingze in her heart, but then she shook her head, opened the door and waited for her mother to come out, and the two of them slowly returned to the carriage.

"Come and have some food. When we get home tomorrow, it will be nice to lie on the warm kang." Father Lu saw the two of them coming back, took out some dry food, put it on the table and said.

"Yeah." So the three of them ate and went back to sleep. When the train arrived at the station the next afternoon,

The three of them packed up their things, walked out of the train station in the rain, went straight to the bus station to take a bus back to the county, and then took another bus back to the commune.

Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they heard that it was raining heavily and several teams had been affected. This scared the three of them, and they hurriedly ate a hot meal at the state-owned restaurant and walked home in a hurry.

"Xiaoyan, can you walk now? I told you to stay in the commune for two days and come back after the rain stops, but you just won't listen." Mother Lu looked at her daughter, whose face was a little pale, and kept muttering with heartache.

"I'm just thinking that we're almost home, so a few more steps won't make a difference. It would be so nice to stay at home comfortably." Lu Qingyan was already holding her breath, but she was still walking.

She thought that everything was not peaceful at this time and it would be safer at home, so she insisted on following Mr. and Mrs. Lu home.

"Dad, Mom, and little sister? Why are you back?" Brother Lu was scooping water out of the yard. When he heard the noise, he squinted his eyes and looked at the three people approaching, and asked in surprise

"Please set fire to my house and your little sister's house. We are freezing to death." Mother Lu was shivering from the heavy rain. When she got home, she said

"Okay, I'll go right away." Brother Lu took the things from Father Lu's hand, put them in the house, and called Sister Lu out to work.

After Lu Qingyan went into the house, changed into dry clothes, and drank a cup of hot water poured by her sister-in-law, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Little sister, how come you came back just like that? At least send a letter or a telegram so that your brother can pick you up." Mrs. Lu brought a basin of water, wet the rag, and wiped the dust off the kang with her hands and feet.

"We decided to come back suddenly, so we didn't have time to send a telegram." Lu Qingyan waited for her sister-in-law to finish cleaning the kang, then she put on her slippers and went to the cupboard to get the bedding. She said as she made the bed.

"Then why did you come back so soon after you left?" Mrs. Lu said this out of pure curiosity.

"Gu Mingze was suddenly transferred to another place, so I thought about coming back with my parents to stay for a few days. I will go there after Gu Mingze has made arrangements." Lu Qingyan got into bed and lay on the warm kang. She was completely relieved. As soon as she finished speaking, she fell asleep in a daze.

After cleaning up everything, Mrs. Lu looked at her sleeping sister-in-law, shook her head helplessly, quietly left the house, closed the door, and went to the kitchen to cook.

"Big brother's wife, boil two eggs for Xiaoyan. She's been so tired all the way here, and I don't know if her stomach can take it anymore." Mother Lu changed into dry clothes in the house, drank some hot water, and then she calmed down. She walked into the kitchen and gave instructions.

"Little sister is pregnant?" Mrs. Lu looked up in surprise when she heard the belly

"Well, when I was in the army, the doctor said that my stomach was unstable and I had to take good care of it. But who would have thought that Mingze would be transferred away suddenly?" Mother Lu took a small stool and sat by the stove, sighing.

"When we eat, ask your little sister if she feels uncomfortable. If she does, you need to see a doctor as soon as possible. Don't delay." Mrs. Lu didn't expect that her sister-in-law would get pregnant just one month after joining the army. It's amazing!

"Well, I'll bring the meal to your little sister when it's ready. Don't let her go to the fields. Let her take good care of herself for a while." Seeing that her eldest daughter-in-law didn't say anything else, Mother Lu continued.

"Okay, I'll make dinner these days and send it to my younger sister. Don't bother with that." Mrs. Lu knew that her younger sister-in-law wouldn't be able to stay for long this time, so she agreed happily.

"Okay, it's settled. Go to my room and get some food later. Your little sister will eat the food that my father and I provide for her during her stay here." Mother Lu said, and she stood up and prepared to go back to the room to get some food.

"Mom, you can't eat much food, so stop making trouble. Am I afraid that you will eat it?" Seeing that her mother-in-law was really going to go back to the house to get food, Mrs. Lu hurriedly pulled her back and said unhappily

"Well, I'll let your little sister remember this favor." Seeing that her eldest daughter-in-law was sincere, Mother Lu remembered this favor for her daughter.

"Look at what mother said. Why do you remember this? This is my younger sister's home. Isn't it normal for my younger sister to have a meal when she returns to her own home?" Mrs. Lu was very happy to hear what her mother-in-law said, but she said good things.

"By the way, when we were in the commune, we heard that several nearby brigades were affected by the disaster. What about our brigades?" Mother Lu was sitting on the bench. She suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Our team..." Mrs. Lu was about to say something, but she was so scared by her sister-in-law's shout that she dropped the rice shovel in her hand to the ground.

"Mom, sister-in-law, I'm bleeding..."
