Xiaoxiao struggled a little to get out of Fan Hua's arms, looked behind her, and after a while asked in confusion, "Mom, Dad, where is he?"
Fan Hua smiled and rubbed Xiaoxiao's little head. She was indeed Zhao Yilu's most caring little cotton-padded jacket. When she came back, she knew she went to find her father first. So she smiled and said, "Dad went to participate in the training competition. He will be back in a few days!"
"Sai?" Xiaoxiao asked again with her little mouth open.
"It's just competing with others to see who's better, just like you always compete with your brother to see who eats faster or plays with toys better." Fan Hua explained gently.
Xiaoxiao seemed to understand something, nodded her head, and then said, "Daddy...that's great..."
Yuanyuan immediately flattered him, saying, "Daddy... come on!"
Fan Hua and Aunt Chu beside her couldn't help laughing. These two little guys have become more and more interesting since they learned to talk!
While Fan Hua was playing with the two children, Aunt Chu quickly went to the kitchen to make some dinner. Then, while eating, she chatted with Fan Hua about various things happening in Beijing.
"All four of them are very nice. I feel like they've become younger and more energetic after Yuan Yuanxiaoxiao's month-long stay! Especially Commander He, he's like an old child, thinking every day about how to take care of the two naughty kids!"
Fan Hua smiled when she heard this, "How are grandma and grandpa doing?"
"They're very nice too. Lin Chao and Lin Xi are very capable. They treat them like their own grandparents. The two old people live a very comfortable life. This time we stayed in each of the two houses in Beijing for more than half a month. During the half month we stayed at the Zhao residence, Mr. Zhao took Yuanyuan and Xiaoxiao to see the movie "Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan" three times. Every time he came back from the movie, he couldn't help but praise you, saying that your painting is good, and the lines are smooth, the colors are well matched, and so on. I don't understand, but his face is full of pride!"
"Oh, right. This time, the old people asked me to bring back a lot of stuff. They're all in the house. You can go check it out later. They also sent Guard Zhou and another soldier to escort us, but they left in a hurry after dropping us off because they bought train tickets back to the city that day."
Fan Hua nodded, thinking that after dinner she would call a few elderly people to report her safety so that they could feel at ease.
Fan Hua seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and asked with a gossipy look on her face, "By the way, where's my uncle He Siyan? How is he? Is he still coughing?"
Aunt Chu was stunned. "Did he cough before? I think he's fine. I haven't heard him cough in the days since I went back. He even goes running with Old Man He every morning. Although he looks a little fat, but when it's hot, he wears a vest at home. He looks very strong, only slightly less than Captain Zhao."
Fan Hua was stunned. It had only been half a year since they last met. Had He Siyan changed so much?
Aunt Chu saw him stunned, then smiled again and said, "I heard he's attracted to a girl who's studying at the Military Medical University. She has a suitor who's a soldier and is stronger than him. So your uncle has been working out a lot in the past six months, afraid of being outdone. He hasn't even rested during the hottest days of summer."
Fan Hua was instantly enlightened, it turned out that love is so powerful!
"So how are they doing now? Have they made any progress?"
Aunt Chu said with a smile, "When I was there, it happened that one day the girl's grandfather brought her to visit Commander He. I heard that the girl's grandfather and Commander He used to work together in the army. The two old men got along very well. After drinking some wine, he even said in excitement that he wanted to be a matchmaker for his two grandchildren so that they could get closer in the future. The girl blushed immediately after hearing this, but she didn't say anything to refuse. I think you will have a sister-in-law soon. There is an 80% chance that these two will get married as soon as they graduate!"
Fan Hua couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth. Great, great, this couple's relationship developed faster than she expected. They really deserved to be the official CP. The novel said that they would not meet until a year later and get married the year after. She didn't expect that after her birth, it would produce such a huge butterfly effect. Whether it was Guangzhou or Beijing, there were huge changes. Fan Hua felt that as long as everything was changing for the better, it was enough!
The two chatted about some other things. After Fan Hua had eaten, she couldn't help but want to see what Aunt Chu brought back from Beijing this time.
You don’t know until you see it. It’s shocking. Why are there so many?
The whole sack was filled to the brim. No wonder they sent an extra soldier to escort them back. Otherwise, how would they carry so much?
Toys, pickles, snacks, clothes, gloves, insoles... all kinds of things were there. There was even a dozen or so of the unripe pomegranate in the He family's yard. Fan Hua couldn't help but feel warm in her heart as she looked at them. It felt so good to be missed by her family!
After she arranged everything, she called a few elderly people back. This time, she called her grandparents first. As soon as the call was connected, Sun Simin's gentle voice came over, "Girl Fan, has Aunt Chu brought the children home? Are Xiaoxiao and Yuanyuan making a fuss?"
Fan Hua responded with a smile, "Grandma, I'm home now. I called you just to let you know I'm safe. The two children are doing well."
"That's good. The two children have been so well behaved in Beijing these days. They just came back, and I couldn't help but think again. You must bring the children back more often when you have time!"
Fan Hua smiled and replied, "Of course. If I wasn't so busy this summer, I would have gone back with them to see you. Grandma, I really miss you too. I just looked at all the things you brought here. There are so many!"
"Nothing much. I don't know what you need. These are just some worthless things!" She glanced at Zhao Xubai, who was quietly listening to their conversation on the phone, and lowered her voice to continue, "Fan girl, when Yuanyuan and Xiaoxiao came back this time, I found that they really like eating peaches. Your grandfather and I thought that since our backyard is empty anyway, we wanted to plant a peach tree in our yard so that they can pick their own peaches in the future. Guess what happened?"
Fan Hua asked curiously, "What happened?"
