Ma Dongmei and Zheng Yushan came to the Zhang family together. The in-laws were going back to their hometown, and it would be rude not to come and see them off.
"Sister, I'll leave Yushan to you. If she does anything wrong when we get home, you can criticize her and treat her like your own daughter."
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about! I really like Yushan from the bottom of my heart. Yushan is so sensible, how could there be anything wrong with her.
Don't worry, just come home with me. I will treat her like my own daughter and won't let her suffer any injustice. "
Su Hong understood Gao Dongmei's implication and immediately made a promise to reassure her.
"I'm relieved. I know my eldest sister's character as a sister-in-law very well. How could I not be relieved?"
Sure enough, the smile on Gao Dongmei's face deepened.
"Xiaoguang, load Yushan's luggage into the car, and let's leave now."
The situation was urgent, so after thanking everyone for their kindness and politely declining Zhao Xiumei's suggestion to make dumplings, the family got in the car and headed directly towards Qilu Province.
"Dad, doesn't Uncle Li need to come with me this time?"
Li Lixin and Zhang Xiangnan have always been inseparable, and Zhang Panpan has gotten used to it.
"Well, our family just fills up one car, so your eldest brother and I can take turns driving. Your Uncle Xiao Li and I have other tasks arranged for you."
Although there is a political commissar and deputy commander in the regiment, they can handle most military affairs.
But as the military commander, he also has to keep abreast of the dynamics of the regiment at all times. In many cases, Li Lixin is his spokesperson.
Zhang Shuguang and Zhang Xiangnan sat in the front row, while Su Hong sat in the back row with her daughter and future daughter-in-law. The jeep traveled through the rainforest, and the scenery along the way was breathtaking.
If you are not in a hurry, it will definitely be a perfect self-driving tour.
During the two days of waiting for Zhang Shuguang to come back, Zhang Xiangnan had already planned the route in advance, including where to eat and where to rest overnight, and the calculations were accurate to the last detail.
In the evening of the third day, the jeep finally drove into Dongfeng County.
"Yushan, bear with it for a while, let's just go home and eat."
Zhang Shuguang turned his head and looked at Zheng Yushan.
"Okay, you bought so many snacks that we kept ourselves busy the whole way. We're not hungry at all."
Every time we stopped to eat, Zhang Shuguang would disappear for a while and come back with all kinds of delicious food.
Zheng Yushan finally knew where the fat on Panpan's body came from.
When a jeep is driving in the dark, pedestrians on the road will see the headlights and hide in the woods on the side of the road in time.
If there is really no way to avoid it, they will stand facing the mountain with their backs to the road.
"It's so late, why would anyone be on the road?"
Zheng Yushan was puzzled. Although the inland counties had more people than the border towns, it shouldn't be so exaggerated that the streets were full of people late at night.
"They must be people going to the black market. There's a famine going on right now, and almost every household is out of food. Anyone with extra money will go to the black market to find something to eat."
According to the history of the parallel world, this year is the last year of the famine. Several heavy rains this summer will greatly alleviate the disaster.
"I don't know if you've finished eating the food you left at home. Will Mom, Dad, and Shengli starve?"
Thinking about the various game and fruits he had eaten in southern Xinjiang, Su Hong felt a sense of guilt.
"Yushan, this is Zhangzhuang Brigade. It's where Xiaoguang was born and where he grew up."
Su Hong took Zheng Yushan's hand and pointed at the village outside the car window.
Under the bright moonlight, the low houses are scattered in a disorderly manner, built against the mountain.
The roar of the military jeeps woke up the quiet mountain village, and dim kerosene lamps were lit in many houses.
The jeep drove straight to the door of the house. A big black dog in the yard rushed to the gate of the fence and barked wildly at the outside.
"Brother, why is there a big dog at home?"
The little girl who was about to knock on the door suddenly hid behind Zhang Shuguang, holding on to her brother's legs and watching carefully.
"Who is it?"
Zhang Qingchun walked out of the house with a flashlight, first touched Dahei, the loyal guard, and then shone the flashlight outside the door.
"Xiaoguang? Panpan? You're back? Why don't you send a telegram to Grandpa in advance?"
"Old lady, hurry up and get up, the eldest grandson and granddaughter are back!"
The old man turned around and ran back without even saying hello to his son and daughter-in-law, leaving the big black dog still looking outside vigilantly.
The relationship between generations is no joke. In the eyes of the elderly, the eldest grandson and the youngest granddaughter must be ranked before their sons.
"Grandpa, please slow down and don't fall."
"Dad, please open the door first!"
Zhang Shuguang clung to the gate of the fence, his eyes closely following the old man's figure.
Zhang Xiangnan felt helpless as his status was getting lower and lower.
"Yushan, Grandpa was just too happy, and it was too dark, so he probably didn't notice you."
Su Hong held Zheng Yushan's hand, fearing that she would feel uncomfortable and not be taken seriously on her first visit.
"Aunt, it's okay. I'm not that stingy. I can see that grandpa and grandma must love Shuguang very much."
Zheng Yushan shook Su Hong's hand back to indicate that she was fine.
"Where is he? Why didn't the eldest grandson come in?"
After a series of clanging sounds, Liu Guixiang quickly walked out of the room.
"Oops! I forgot to open the door for the grandkids."
Zhang Qingchun returned to the gate and opened the lock on the fence gate.
When the old owner opened the door, the big black dog, which had a fierce look on its face just now, calmed down and followed the owner's legs.
"Grandson, dear granddaughter, I miss grandma so much."
