Chapter 259: The Dilemma Between Family and Country



Chi Lanlan had just come out of another alley with Zhou Zhiyan when she saw Sun Yu leaving the store.

Zhou Zhiyan asked, "Mom, what is she doing here?"

Chi Lanlan glanced at the street and said, "Whatever she wants to do is her business."

She looked at the candied haws in Zhou Zhiyan's hand and said, "Today's candied haws seem good."

Zhou Zhiyan held up the candied haws and said, "Mom, you eat it."

Chi Lanlan didn't bother to be polite with Zhou Zhiyan. She squatted down and took a bite.

Sour and sweet.

"It's delicious." She said while eating.

Zhou Zhiyan laughed happily: "I think it tastes good too."

The heartwarming scene of the two at the door of the store was seen by two tall figures on the street.

The man was wearing a gray work suit and a marching cap. He was thin but tall.

The woman next to him had short hair that reached her ears and was wearing a black work suit. Her facial features resembled Zhou Jingyun's.

"Go ahead." Lin Geng said.

Zhou Xiuyun nodded, but took a step and suddenly stopped.

"We should go do some shopping."

They ran here as soon as they came out and didn't want to stop for a second on the way, so they didn't buy anything.

I just saw the children eating candied haws, and then I remembered that I not only missed the children’s childhood, but also owed them a lot.

They are not really a good pair of parents.

Lin Geng advised: "What do you want to buy? Why not meet and buy it after you settle down."

The two of them traveled all night, with only Lin Geng carrying a light luggage bag.

Zhou Xiuyun thought about it and agreed. They could go in and then bring the children out to let them choose what they like.

After all, they have been absent for so many years and don’t know what their children like.

"Go in first."

After Zhou Zhiyan came back, he happily ran up and down the two floors of the store.

He thought the store looked great once the lights were turned on and he liked it.

"Slow down and don't run, be careful not to fall." Chi Lanlan said from behind.

Just as she finished saying this, she turned around and saw two people coming to the store door.

One of the features looked vaguely familiar.

The other one, tall and thin, also looked familiar.

Zhou Jingyun said that his sister and brother-in-law will be back soon, but the specific day is not confirmed.

Because their itineraries are secret.

But looking at these two people, she felt that it should be.

"grandmother."

Yes, I guess I need grandma to come out and identify it.

Song Lingshu heard Chi Lanlan's voice and turned around to come out.

I saw two dusty young men standing at the door.

"Xiuyun?" Song Lingshu shouted in surprise.

Zhou Xiuyun rushed in and was about to kneel down in front of the old lady: "Grandma, Yun'er is back."

Song Lingshu quickly raised her hand to help the man up.

"It's good to be back."

"Grandma..." Zhou Zhiyan came down from upstairs and paused when he saw the strange scene downstairs.

Song Lingshu waved her hand: "Xiao Yan, come here."

Zhou Zhiyan realized it later and came down from upstairs.

Zhou Xiuyun's eyes were fixed on Zhou Zhiyan.

Her children...

He was taken away immediately after he was born and never had a sip of milk.

Her brother raised her children very well.

"Xiaoyan."

This name was given to the child by the couple, but they never spent a single day with the child.

The tears in Zhou Xiuyun's eyes suddenly burst out, and she looked at the young boy in front of her with tearful eyes.

That face that was a fusion of her and Lin Geng's blood.

Zhou Zhiyan felt embarrassed when Zhou Xiuyun looked at him, so he hid behind Chi Lanlan and called her "Mom" in a childish voice.

Chi Lanlan gently touched her head and said, "Don't be afraid, Grandma has something to tell you."

Zhou Zhiyan looked at Song Lingshu: "Grandma."

Song Lingshu patted Zhou Xiuyun's hand and said, "You just came back, so you should give the child some time to adjust and let him get used to you first."

Zhou Xiuyun nodded.

Lin Geng then came over and called out, "Grandma."

Song Lingshu nodded.

Zhou Zhiyan was curious but didn't get close to her.

She always stood behind Chi Lanlan. Zhou Xiuyun wanted to get close to him, but was ignored.

She could only look at Chi Lanlan, and then at Song Lingshu.

Song Lingshu said, "This is Lanlan, Jingyun's wife."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and looked at Chi Lanlan and said, "This is your sister-in-law, Jingyun's sister."

Chi Lanlan nodded: "My sister and brother-in-law just came back, they must be tired, why don't you take a rest first?"

Zhou Xiuyun shook her head.

She was relieved, but seeing her son was worth it no matter how tired she was.

In the past few years, she missed her children all the time, but they had responsibilities and could not relax at all.

Not to mention that they couldn't bring their children with them at the time, even if they encountered danger from time to time, it was indeed not appropriate to bring their children with them.

Song Lingshu said, "Rest for a while and take care of yourself. We can deal with other things later. When you come back, you won't be afraid of anything."

Zhou Xiuyun nodded.

Lin Geng reached out to support his wife.

Little Zhou Zhiyan looked at Zhou Xiuyun and Lin Geng in surprise, then looked at Song Lingshu: "Grandma, so, these are my aunt and uncle?"

Song Lingshu touched Zhou Zhiyan's head and said, "Little fool, they are yours..."

"Grandma..." Zhou Xiuyun suddenly interrupted Song Lingshu: "Xiao Yan, you can call me aunt first."

Lin Geng paused.

Zhou Xiuyun held back the tears that were about to overflow from her eyes, reached out and touched Zhou Zhiyan's head and said, "Auntie hasn't had time to buy you a gift yet. I'll take you to buy it later."
