"Old man, go with your dad. I'll feed the pigs when you get back. Just take care of Erbao!"
Su Xia－－－
Looking at the backs of Chen's father and mother, he sighed helplessly. It was just the time to weed the crops. This job was not tiring. Chen's mother took the initiative to sign up. She would do as much as she could. It didn't matter how much she did.
As a result, now they even have breakfast at Su Xia's place. Yesterday, Father Chen even moved all the wheat that the old couple had harvested last time to Su Xia's place.
"Mom, finish eating too, let's go out and play!" Dabao threw away the bowl, wiped his mouth with his back, slipped down from the stool, and ran out without giving Su Xia a chance to speak.
Su Xia－－－
Yayaya---
Seeing that Su Xia ignored him, Erbao had no choice but to use his killer move. He started to hum and hum to attract his mother's attention.
Su Xia sighed helplessly and had to pick up Erbao, "Now it's just the two of us."
Niu Niu also went out with Chen's parents, saying that she was going to earn money, but in fact she was just cutting grass for the pigs at home. Now that she has grown up, she also knows how to work for the family.
Su Xia held Erbao and walked around outside first before returning home, because the little guy started squinting again at this time.
After 20 minutes, when Erbao had fallen asleep, Su Xia got up and went to the kitchen to clean up the breakfast battlefield. Then she took out a basin, scooped out three bowls of grits, and soaked them. This was for lunch.
Then he put on a straw hat, a long-sleeved jacket, and gloves, and started weeding the small vegetable garden in the front yard. Before this work, he also released three big geese, drove them directly outside the gate, and let them eat grass on both sides of the road outside.
Goose---
The three of them ran out happily, without any attachment to their owner.
After finishing the work in front of her, Su Xia looked at the trees on both sides of the gate. It was an apricot tree, just an ordinary tree. After these years, it had grown almost as thick as Dabao's waist.
Su Xia was very satisfied, because this was a good place to cool off. She even renovated the old table at home and put it here. She also had a few small wooden stools. It was the most comfortable place to sit in the morning and evening.
She went to the backyard again, pulled out all the weeds, and threw them directly to the pigs in the pigpen. Looking at the four happy pigs, Su Xia began to miss the man who was working far away.
I don't know when I came back again, but Chen Jianguo was suddenly asked to meet with his leader. It turned out to be a work matter, but when he arrived at his old leader's office, he saw a serious expression on his face.
My heart skipped a beat, and I always felt that this matter was not small. Sure enough, half an hour later, Chen Jianguo sat opposite the old leader with a serious expression, and I didn't know how to express his current mood.
"Why--
Jianguo, I know you can't accept it right away, but the current situation isn't just you, it's the same for many people. It's just a matter of time."
Hearing this, Chen Jianguo clenched the fist on his knees, looked at his leader, and found that his eyes were full of bloodshot.
After a long time, he said calmly, "Leader, I will obey your instructions!"
The old leader was surprised for a moment, then turned his head away reluctantly, and patted his subordinate's shoulder heavily for a long time.
Chen Jianguo didn't know how he got back to the dormitory. He sat on the stool in a daze, and habitually touched the photo on his chest with his right hand. The photo had been replaced with the one of the second baby when he was 100 days old. But this time, not only Su Xia brought the three children, but also Chen's father and mother.
Bang--
A loud noise startled Chen Jianguo, who looked over and said angrily, "Why don't you knock on the door?"
Ding Xueming looked terrified. He was stunned by Chen Jianguo's question. After a while, he reacted, closed the door, and moved closer to his brother.
"Is that the matter your leader is talking to you about?" Ding Xueming asked directly.
Chen Jianguo nodded when he heard this. "Yes, that's perfect. I can see if I can transfer to my hometown!"
Ding Xueming carefully observed his old friend's expression and found that he was not forcing himself, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Why--
"It might be a big loss for you guys. Do you think this team will disband soon?"
Chen Jianguo didn't say anything, but he was thinking about the things that happened before and after the New Year.
In fact, our railway has already started running. We thought we would be assigned to other places to continue to shine, but for some reason, we kept waiting and there was no news.
On the contrary, some people were transferred away one after another. Although Chen Jianguo didn't know why, he didn't dare to ask. We were used to obeying.
Now, apart from daily inspections and maintenance, the entire base is just waiting.
But if I am transferred back to my hometown, I am looking forward to it.
"Old Chen, which unit should I be transferred back to when you said you want me to be transferred back to my hometown?" Ding Xueming was feeling uneasy. It was mid-August now, and he would go back to his hometown in mid-July to complete his lifelong event.
I stayed at home for 10 days and then came back to work. To be honest, I was reluctant to leave and hated going back, but work was important after all.
But I didn't expect that there is a possibility of going back now. Why did I start to feel confused?
"Why, isn't this exactly what you want, going home to be with your wife?" Chen Jianguo joked.
Ding Xueming was a little dissatisfied. "My wife has a beautiful name, Gu Ruyi. Isn't she a bricklayer?"
Being teased by Chen Jianguo like this, I felt a lot better.
Chen Jianguo smiled and his mood improved.
"Yes, when are you going to tell your sister-in-law?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jianguo once again touched the photo on his chest, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Let's wait until the transfer order comes down, so as to avoid worrying my family."
"That's true, but you need to talk to your superiors more often and try to transfer back to your hometown, otherwise it will be too much trouble."
Phew－－－
Chen Jianguo laughed and said, "Don't worry, since the higher-ups have already made plans, they will definitely make arrangements for us. Don't forget, we are away from home all year round and rarely go back home."
Ding Xueming was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was going on and slapped his thigh. "Then I'm relieved. Seriously, I was almost worried to death, afraid that this would get out?"
"Why, do you still like your family? How is your wife's family?" Chen Jianguo looked gossipy.
Ding Xueming's mouth trembled several times before he said, "Anyway, I didn't suffer any loss!"
Not only did he not suffer any loss, he had been hit by bricks many times, and it was okay when he was hit.
After she left, the sisters-in-law at home started to work together to make things difficult for her, such as forcing her to cook, clean the house, and even making her do farm work to earn money.
Before Gu Ruyi married in, Ding Xueming told her family about their plans and also explained Chen Jianguo's idea in detail.
Only after Gu Ruyi went home and talked to her parents and brother did her family agree to let her marry in.
In fact, the Ding family was still curious. They originally wanted to go to the bride's house first and get married, but they didn't expect that the bride's family and their relatives would agree to the marriage.
This made the plans of Ding Xueming's two elder brothers and one younger brother fail. They originally thought that they would use Ding Xueming's name to get married, make a lot of money from him, and then throw Ding's father and mother to them, and then they could use their parents' name to get good things from time to time.
Unexpectedly, a city girl agreed to marry directly. As soon as Ding Xueming left, several of them started to work together to make things difficult for Gu Ruyi.
Unfortunately, what I didn't expect was that apart from the fact that Gu Ruyi's name sounded Ruyi, every hair on her body was rebellious.
When asked to cook, Gu Ruyi respectfully agreed on the surface. After the people left, she chuckled and started cooking. Finally, she succeeded in alarming all her grandsons, because from a distance, the entire Ding family was covered in smoke.
Because the house was on fire, when everyone arrived, they saw all the members of the Ding family with gray faces, and Gu Ruyi crying.
Well, from that day on, the Ding family didn't dare let her cook. But they were unwilling to do so, so they asked her to clean the house, do the laundry, and feed the chickens and pigs.
Gu Ruyi immediately patted his chest and agreed, and then the water flooded the entire Ding family's house, and the furniture in the house was either missing arms or legs.
He washed clothes and mended them all, fed chickens until they were all stuffed to death, fed pigs until they were knocked unconscious with bricks, and afterwards, under the fierce gaze of the Ding family, he had the support of his eldest brother who came after hearing the news.
He said he was about to be bitten by a pig, so he was scared and hit it with a brick.
The more Chen Jianguo listened, the more he admired him. If it were Su Xia, he would definitely be eager to meet this brick hero.
