Lin Wanru didn't know their relationship, nor did she know how to address him, and felt a little awkward for a moment.
"Sister Wanru, these are my grandparents and uncle."
Yang Xiaoxiao broke free from Mu Xue's hand and ran to Lin Wanru to share her joy.
The little girl is still confused. She just went to the farm with her brother, and when she came back, she found her grandparents and an uncle who was only a few years older than her brother.
"Hello, it's cold outside, please come inside."
Lin Wanru didn't know how to address the two old people, nor did she know how to introduce herself. If she hadn't been wearing cotton shoes, her toes would probably have dug a big hole in the blue brick.
"Grandma, this is Lin Wanru, one of the educated youth from the same batch as me. She helped me a lot after we went to the countryside to work in the fields. Now Xiaoxiao sleeps with Wanru."
Yang Baiyi saw the gossipy look in her grandmother's eyes and quickly explained to her.
I'm a grown man and nothing's wrong, but Lin Wanru is so shy!
"Are they just fellow educated youth?"
If this was the educated youth compound, Muxue could still believe her grandson's explanation, but this was the house her grandson built himself. If there was no special relationship, Muxue didn't believe that a little girl would be willing to move in.
"We are dating, but we are still young and it's just a simple boyfriend-girlfriend relationship."
Even though Yang Baiyi had lived two lives, his face turned red at this moment.
Yang Baiyi can be very frank in front of other people, probably because Mu Xue is his closest elder.
"Okay, grandma believes you, let's go into the house quickly."
Mu Xue looked at Lin Wanru with a smile. This little girl had perfect looks and figure. Mu Xue was extremely satisfied with her future granddaughter-in-law.
A group of people walked into the main room in a lively manner, and Lin Wanru followed behind with a confused heart.
Yang Baiyi is a big liar. He said his grandparents were from Sichuan and Chongqing, so how did they show up in the Northeast? Looking at the shabby clothes this family wore, they didn't look like they had the spare money to come visit relatives.
His uncle taught him how to cook and hunt, but that was all a lie. His uncle looked only a few years older than him; he was just a big young man.
After entering the house, Yang Baiyi first lit the fire to raise the temperature in the house, and then made a bowl of milk powder for everyone.
The old couple couldn't refuse, so they had to take the milk powder and drink it. Their whole bodies became warm from the inside out.
"Grandson, where is your mother now?"
Mu Xue still asked the question that she had not dared to ask along the way.
"Grandma, my mom and dad are both gone."
Yang Xiaoxiao pouted a few times, but finally couldn't hold back and burst into tears.
"My poor daughter! I'm sorry for you. You've been with us through gunfire and rain, wandering around in poverty, and you haven't had a single good day.
"I shouldn't have sent you to live with a fellow villager. Saving the country doesn't require me alone. I'm not worthy of being your mother! I don't know how you've been through all these years!"
After a brief silence, Mu Xue hugged Yang Xiaoxiao in her arms, crying loudly and heartbroken.
When Xiao Qingyang heard the bad news, his face turned pale and his body was shaking.
I had just reunited with my grandson and granddaughter and thought I would soon know news about my daughter, but I didn't expect that she had already passed away.
Having dedicated his entire life to the country, Xiao Qingyang still had to suffer on the farm in his later years. He believed that he had done his best for the country and the people, but he was only unworthy of his daughter.
"Grandma, Grandpa, don't be too sad. This is what happened...
Although my parents passed away at a young age, the dead cannot be resurrected, and we who are still alive must look forward.
At least in our memories, my parents were very loving and happy when they were alive."
Yang Baiyi persuaded the old couple.
Lin Wanru was at a loss. Yang Xiaoxiao cried even harder than her grandparents, and her uncle was also crying with her. There was no other way, so Yang Baiyi had to do this job.
It’s not that Yang Baiyi is cold-hearted by nature, nor is it that he has no feelings for his parents because he is not the original owner. What Yang Baiyi said is what is in his heart.
After all, the person is gone, and crying can’t bring him back. Yang Baiyi has experienced the end of the world and too many separations and deaths.
In the world of the previous life, only one in a hundred survived, and they were struggling on the brink of death every day. How could they have time to grieve?
"Grandma, they say children are the continuation of their parents' lives, and this makes a lot of sense.
Didn't you say Xiaoxiao looks exactly like my mother? From now on, you should love her more, which will be a kind of comfort.
I believe that our mother in heaven would not want to see you so sad."
It took a long time of persuasion to temporarily calm the old couple's emotions.
"Yes, my eldest grandson is right. My poor granddaughter, grandma will love you like the apple of her eye in the future."
Mu Xue hugged Yang Xiaoxiao tightly and never wanted to let go.
"Grandpa, can you tell me about your experiences over the years?"
Yang Baiyi began to divert the old couple's attention, not wanting them to continue to be immersed in sadness.
"In the early days of the war, we had few soldiers and outdated equipment, and the situation was very passive.
When we were fighting in Linzhang County, because the front line was too dangerous and it was inconvenient to bring your mother with us, we sent her to live with a fellow villager.
When you won and went back to find your mother, you found that the entire village had been raided by Japanese pirates.
In the days that followed, we fought the Japanese pirates while searching for your mother, and we found her wherever we went.
