Chu Tian walked in and explained with a smile, "We have to go out tomorrow, so we came back today to pack up our things."
"By the way, sister-in-law, where is Xiujuan?"
Zhang Ping pointed in the direction of two plots of land, "Xiujuan was assigned the land over there today."
Chu Tian glanced in the direction of Yao Xiujuan, then nodded to Zhang Ping and Chu Min.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, I'm going to find Xiujuan."
Chu Min rolled up his sleeves and picked up the sickle on the ground, "Well, go ahead."
After Chu Tian left, Chu Min thought for a moment and said, "When we get home tonight, please help me pack my luggage and pack my winter cotton-padded jacket. Oh, and bring me the military coat and cotton-padded boots I exchanged from my younger brother last winter. Oh, and bring a thicker quilt, too."
Zhang Ping was stunned. "It's only the end of August. Why bring winter clothes? Even if we go to northern Xinjiang, it's not the season to wear a cotton-padded jacket..."
Chu Min bent over and swiftly harvested the wheat. Without even turning his head, he replied, "We are going to Kouli this time. We probably won't be back until after the New Year, so..."
Zhang Ping was stunned in place, and it took her a while to react. She looked at Chu Min in disbelief, "What? You won't be back until after the New Year?"
"It's less than five months until Chinese New Year. You mean you might be away for five or six months?"
Chu Min looked back at her and smiled, "Not necessarily. Maybe he'll be back in four or five months."
“·····”
Zhang Ping thought, how big is the difference between four or five months and five or six months?
Yao Xiujuan on the other side was also shocked, "Brother Tian, you are going to be out for so long..."
Chu Tian smiled and said, "This matter was not arranged by Director Li, nor was it arranged by the regiment headquarters. It was a task assigned by the division, so there is no way to push it to others."
"Except for a few people from Team One, my second brother and I are the only ones with mechanic licenses. Team One hasn't come back yet, and the division won't wait for them, so it's just the two of us who have to go."
Yao Xiujuan was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Okay, I'll pack your luggage when I get home tonight. Don't worry about home, I will take good care of grandma and the children."
Chu Tian looked back at her with eyes full of tenderness, "Okay..."
In a single dormitory building in the steel plant.
Yao Youjun held his son and stood at the door, looking at Liu Jiali, who was stuffing things into her pocket with her back to them. He raised his hand to check the time and urged her helplessly.
"Jia Li, are you done packing? It's already past eleven o'clock, and it will be past twelve o'clock when we get to my eldest sister's house. I want to help my eldest sister, but what can I do at this time?"
Liu Jiali glanced back at Yao Youjun and said quickly, "Alright, alright, stop pushing me. Isn't this all your fault? I told you yesterday that I was busy and didn't have time to go to my second sister-in-law's to pick up the dragon beard pastries we ordered. I asked you to make time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative, but who told you not to go?"
"It made me run again this morning..."
As she spoke, Liu Jiali picked up the bag, turned around and walked to Yao Youjun and his son, glaring at him unhappily.
Yao Youjun rubbed his nose awkwardly. Could he really have forgotten yesterday? Yesterday morning, Director Liu—no, his father-in-law—informed him that the factory director would be coming to the workshop for an inspection that afternoon. So he'd been running around the workshop all morning, checking everywhere, fearing the director would notice something was wrong!
So, how can I remember what my wife told me?
"mother····"
"Hey, dear son, come here and let your mother hug you..."
When Liu Jiali saw her son reaching out to her, she quickly put the bag on the ground, reached out with a smile, took her son in her arms, and walked straight out.
After walking two steps, he felt that Yao Youjun was not keeping up, so he stopped and looked back at Yao Youjun, urging him unhappily.
"What are you doing? Didn't you urge me to leave quickly? Why are you still dawdling?"
“·····”
Yao Youjun sighed inwardly, thinking, when he was pursuing him, she was so innocent, cute, gentle and sensible, but after getting married and having a baby, she immediately returned to her original appearance!
It turns out that women's words are lies. It is better to believe that a sow can climb a tree than to believe what a woman says...
Just as Yao Youjun was muttering in his heart, Liu Jiali seemed to sense it. She turned around suddenly and stared at him leisurely, "Yao Youjun, are you cursing me in your heart again?"
As soon as Yao Youjun locked the door and turned around, he saw Liu Jiali staring at him with a bad look. He was instantly frightened and smiled awkwardly.
"How could that be? Why would I curse you in my heart? You're overthinking..."
Liu Jiali looked Yao Youjun up and down suspiciously, turned around and snorted proudly, and said as she walked forward.
"I think so..."
"hehe···"
Yao Youjun smiled guiltily, and patted his chest hurriedly where Liu Jiali couldn't see. He thought that he was almost scared to death. He didn't dare to speak his mind as honestly as before, otherwise Liu Jiali would torment him all night. Although he enjoyed it, he really couldn't stand it...
"Xinxin, Pingping, Lele..."
Yao Youjun rode his bike with Liu Jiali and her son and did not go through the brigade. Instead, he took a detour and took the main road to their home. As soon as they arrived at their door, they met a dozen younger children from the Chu family who were playing in front of Chu Tian's house.
"Aunt..."
"Aunt..."
"Aunt..."
The three children heard the sound, turned around and saw Liu Jiali getting out of the back seat holding her little cousin, and ran to her excitedly.
