Zhang Heping looked around. He thought he would stay here forever, but he didn't expect that he would have to leave before long.
"Alas," sighed,
He walked out hunched over and saw Lu Ming outside. He glanced at him without saying anything. His eyes instantly shifted and he looked ahead in confusion.
"Captain Zhou, thank you for your hard work. Goodbye."
"This is what I should do, bye."
Zhou Guofu waved to them and watched them go away, feeling very emotional.
They were the object of envy before, and they were still the object of envy after coming here. Who knows where they are going now and what kind of life is waiting for them? Everything is unknown.
"Uncle, it's okay. I'm going back now. You can get busy now!"
Lu Ming watched them leave, and from the looks of those people he had a rough idea of what was going on.
"Okay, let's go back!"
Zhou Guofu waved at him and walked home.
"Dad, you're back. What are they doing at Grandpa Zhang's house?"
When Lu Chenhao saw Lu Ming coming in, he immediately ran up to him, hugged his thighs and asked.
Lu Ming immediately picked him up and pinched his cheek.
"Why are you so curious? Why are you here alone? Where are your brothers and sisters?"
"Dad, just tell me, they are helping mom with the work."
Lu Chenhao hugged Lu Ming's neck and said coquettishly,
"Let's talk about it after we get in. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I'm back. What happened? Lu Chenhao, come and help me."
Zhang Anan looked at the father and son as they came in and said something to them.
Lu Ming pushed Lu Chenhao.
"They left and will never come back," he explained, looking at the confused faces of the children.
"Your Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang have left and will not be coming back."
"Where did they go?"
"I don't know. I didn't ask."
"Why don't you ask?"
Lu Ming reached out and knocked on Lu Chenhao's head.
"That's someone else's business. Why am I asking so many questions? Go and help your brother. Don't you see they are all working hard?"
"whee."
Lu Ming didn't want to say anything more in front of the children, so he didn't continue the topic. He was worried that they were ignorant and would talk nonsense outside, so he changed the subject and talked about something else.
Zhang Heping and his companions boarded the bus heading to an unknown direction with a nervous mood.
Liu Ya nervously tugged at the corner of Zhang Heping's clothes. Zhang Heping looked at her apologetically, asking her to accompany him in his wanderings until she was old and not be able to live a stable life.
Liu Ya smiled back at him and said nothing. She knew what he wanted to express. She was not the kind of ungrateful person and would never abandon him and leave.
…
Gu family,
"Da Jun, call your uncle to come for dinner, what is he doing?"
"Aunt, uncle is not outside. He just said he went out. Oh, and here is this. When he left just now, he said he would show it to you if you asked."
Da Jun handed him a piece of paper. He was confused and had no idea what they were doing. He could only obediently complete the task as required.
Lu Qianqian wiped the water off her hands and took it curiously.
"Did he say anything else?"
He continued asking questions while opening it.
The army shook his head.
Lu Qianqian looked at the few short sentences on the paper and was deeply shocked. The strong protective shell in her heart was shattered in an instant.
Old Man Huang saw that her expression was not right and asked cautiously,
"Qianqian, what did he say?"
Lu Qianqian tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to flow.
Said calmly,
"Grandpa, he said he had to go to the capital for something, so he asked me to go back to my mother's house. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Dajun and the others."
Lu Qianqian took off her bib as she spoke.
After hearing this, the two children ran up and hugged Lu Qianqian's legs tightly.
"Aunt, we want to follow you. Don't stay and don't leave us."
After hearing this, Old Man Huang hunched over and cursed Gu Jinyao in his heart.
Lu Qianqian couldn't bear to leave them, so she tried to push them away.
"Qianqian, please let them follow you. Don't worry, I will definitely give them support. They will definitely have enough to eat and not go hungry if they follow me. Please, I will not control what happens to you and Jinyao in the future. Do whatever you want."
Old Man Huang looked at Lu Qianqian with a pleading look on his face. He really didn't have the energy to take care of the two children. He was in such good health thanks to their care.
"Aunt, don't leave me, I can help you with the work, woo woo woo,"
Xiaojun couldn't help crying.
Lu Qianqian thought for a long time, her expression changing over and over again, and finally she gritted her teeth and said,
"Grandpa, I promise you, but I definitely won't refuse you the child support, otherwise I won't be able to support them both."
"That's for sure. I'll give it to you now."
Old man Huang tremblingly took out a large bag. Seeing this, Da Jun ran back to where they slept and brought over a small cloth bag.
Old man Huang took out a thick bundle and handed it over.
"Jin Yao said this is for his two children. He said the higher-ups didn't give it to them. There's also a book inside that can be used to collect money from the commune every month."
Then he handed over a smaller one.
"This is what Jin Yao gave me. Although it's not much, it can be used for a while."
Lu Qianqian took it and counted it, and found that the thick stack was more than 3,000.
The notebook with Dajun and Xiaojun's names written on it had the most recent withdrawal time before the New Year. The money on it was enough for the two brothers to live on. No wonder Gu Jinyao left so confidently.
When Lu Qianqian thought of this, a sarcastic smile appeared on her lips. What did he think of her?
"Grandpa, this is enough for me. You can take the rest. This is enough to raise the two children."
Lu Qianqian returned the remaining stack. She couldn't be so selfish as to take them all.
"No, take a little more, I don't want that much."
Old Man Huang took out half of it directly. Lu Qianqian pushed it back and forth with him, but she couldn't get enough of him, so she took it.
Lu Qianqian saw the bag in Dajun's hand, but she said nothing. It was the child's own thing, and he had the final say. She would not take it even if it was given to her.
Lu Qianqian was feeling angry. She ate a few bites in a hurry, packed up, and walked towards Lu Ming's house with her two children.
Now this was the only place she could go, and she started crying as she thought about it.
The two children saw her crying and started crying too. The mother and her two children walked forward with their bags, silently shedding tears.
Fortunately, there was no one else on the road, otherwise I would have been scared.
Gu Jinyao, who had already left in the car, looked worriedly in the direction of home.
At this moment, he didn't know what he would face when he came back. Everything was unknown.
