Chapter 257 Jiang Yue Meets His Parents
"I've already said that you can only take one person away. I'm also following the rules. Please don't make things difficult for me."
The village chief looked at them with a cold expression.
Jiang Yue was originally abandoned to his uncle and aunt by his parents, so he did not come here with them to suffer.
Jiang Yunliang also knew that it was indeed difficult to bring two people back to the city now, but if he could bring one, then that would be the best.
Over the years, Jiang Yue's father has taken all the work on his shoulders in order to protect his mother.
They were not used to the environment and climate here at first, and Jiang Yue's mother, Wang Guizhi, fell seriously ill as soon as she arrived.
Since then, her health has been poor.
This time they came to take her back for medical treatment.
Jiang Yue's father, Jiang Yunhong, is an intellectual. In addition to going out to work, he sometimes gives lectures to the children here.
So the people here were quite nice to the couple. Wang Guizhi was in poor health, and the villagers also helped a lot.
Jiang Yunliang sighed and said, "We are here to take Comrade Wang Guizhi back."
Seeing this, the village chief took them to where Jiang Yue's parents lived.
When they arrived, Jiang Yunhong was just about to go out to work.
When Jiang Yue saw his father, his eyes suddenly turned red.
After all these years, it would be a lie for him to say that he didn't miss them.
"Dad." He shouted to Jiang Yunhong.
Jiang Yunhong didn't notice them at first, but when he heard the sound, he turned around and saw Jiang Yue and Jiang Yunliang.
Jiang Yunliang had been here before and had seen it before.
But this was Jiang Yue's first time here. Seeing his son, Jiang Yunhong was slightly stunned, then said excitedly, "Xiao Yue?"
Then he looked at Jiang Yunliang and called out, "Brother."
"I brought Xiao Yue here this time because I know you must want to see him. Your family has been separated for so many years, it's time to reunite." Jiang Yunliang looked at his younger brother and felt very uncomfortable.
Jiang Yunhong has suffered so much in the countryside over the years. Although he is younger than him, he now has more white hair on his head than him.
Seeing his father's haggard face, Jiang Yue's throat choked.
"Really Xiaoyue, you've grown so big?"
Seeing his son, Jiang Yunhong hurriedly put down the tools in his hands, walked towards him, and reached out to hug his son.
"It's me. I'm here to see you and mom." Jiang Yue's voice was a little hoarse, his nose felt sore, and he couldn't help but shed tears.
"Wife, Guizhi, come out quickly, Xiaoyue is here." After Jiang Yunhong reacted, he shouted inside.
Hearing the sound, Wang Guizhi also came out.
"Xiao Yue, my son."
When she saw Jiang Yue, Wang Guizhi burst into tears with excitement.
Her complexion was not very good, even more haggard than Jiang Yunhong, her lips were pale and her body was as thin as a stick.
"Mom." Jiang Yue shouted to Wang Guizhi.
He still remembers how his parents looked when they left. So many years have passed, but he didn't expect that they have become so old now?
"Son, let mom take a good look at you." Wang Guizhi looked at Jiang Yue, who was a head taller than her, with tears in her eyes.
When Jiang Yunliang saw that his brother's family was finally reunited, his eyes became slightly moist.
Jiang Yue followed his parents into the house, and when he saw the environment they lived in, his heart ached again.
There was almost no decent furniture here, only a brick bed, an iron pot, and a few pots and pans.
"Mom and Dad, you've worked hard over the years."
Wang Guizhi looked at her son, shook her head and said, "As long as you are well, it doesn't matter if your parents suffer all this."
Both of them were very pleased to see their son grow up so much.
"Xiao Yue, have you been living well at your uncle's house these years?" Wang Guizhi asked with concern, holding Jiang Yue's arm.
Speaking of this, Jiang Yue paused. He was worried that she would blame herself after knowing the truth, so he nodded and said, "I'm doing well."
"As long as you're living well." Hearing her say that, Wang Guizhi felt relieved.
Knowing that Jiang Yue and the others were here to pick up Wang Guizhi, Jiang Yunhong felt a little relieved.
They talked for a while, and soon the car to pick them up arrived.
"Xiao Yue, take good care of your mother." Jiang Yunhong reached out and patted Jiang Yue's shoulder, and instructed.
Wang Guizhi looked at her husband with reluctance, feeling that she had been a burden to him all these years.
She originally planned to let Jiang Yue and others take Jiang Yunhong back. Since she didn't have many days left to live anyway, she might as well give him this opportunity.
But Jiang Yunhong refused to agree to anything. He said that he had not been able to let her live a good life for a few days in his life, and if he had the chance to go back this time, he must give it to her first.
Jiang Yue nodded and said reluctantly, "Dad, please wait here a little longer. Grandpa is trying to figure it out. We will definitely be able to reunite as a family next time."
"Okay, I'm also looking forward to the day when our family can be reunited."
After saying goodbye to his father, Jiang Yue walked towards the door with his mother.
Just then, a thin girl came out from next door. When she saw Wang Guizhi was about to leave, she hurried over and hugged her.
"Aunt Gui, will you come back after you leave?"
The girl looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. She cried and looked reluctant.
"Qingqing, I..." Wang Guizhi looked at her, and a complicated expression appeared on her face.
All these years, it was thanks to this girl that she had taken care of her. When the couple first came here, her mother also helped them a lot.
She was also sent down here with her parents. The environment here was really too harsh. Her father passed away first, and in the end her mother couldn't survive and passed away early, leaving her alone.
Wang Guizhi felt sorry for her because she lost her parents at such a young age, and her own son was not around, so she gradually treated her as her own daughter.
She had previously promised the girl that if they could get out one day, she would help her find other family members.
Thinking of this, Wang Guizhi looked at Jiang Yue and the others, and asked with some reluctance: "Brother, Xiao Yue, can we take this child with us?"
After Jiang Yunliang heard what Wang Guizhi said about Meng Qingqing, he had no choice but to go to the village chief to find out about her situation.
Fortunately, Meng Qingqing's parents' background is not that complicated, and she grew up here. The village chief originally wanted to send her away, but he couldn't find her other family members, so he simply let her stay here.
When Meng Qingqing learned that she could go with Wang Guizhi, she hugged her arm excitedly.
"Aunt Gui, that's great. I can go with you."
Jiang Yue heard his mother say that Meng Qingqing's mother had also helped them, and based on this favor, he had no objection.
