Mr. Ming dug out his hidden scissors and razor, and said to Mr. Hua with a smile on his face, "Mr. Hua, come here, I'll give you a haircut."
"Okay, my hair is already very long, so let's take the opportunity to change my hairstyle in the next few years." Mr. Hua immediately sat on the stool.
With the sound of snapping, the excess hair fell off one after another, and soon a clean and neat crew cut was formed. Then, he used a razor to shave off the messy beard bit by bit.
After they finished cutting each other's hair and shaving, they smiled at each other, their eyes full of satisfaction with each other's new look.
Afterwards, the two men took a bath in the cowshed and took out two new sets of military uniforms. They slowly put on their uniforms, buttoned them up, and straightened their collars and cuffs.
When the last button was fastened, the slightly tired face suddenly glowed with vitality. The straight posture and neat military uniform make them look heroic and energetic, as if they were reborn.
Then, carrying the thank-you gifts prepared by their sons, they went to the captain's home, and then went to Li Dazhuang and Jiang Aimin's homes to express their gratitude. The captain has been taking good care of us over the years. Although Li Dazhuang and Jiang Aimin were entrusted by Siying to often help us deliver supplies, they have always persisted and have never embezzled money from Siying or returned the packages sent to us by our families.
When the villagers saw the two old men's mental and physical appearance changed greatly, they all sighed and envied the team leader, Li Dazhuang and Jiang Aimin. They didn't know how the two guys got involved with the cowshed.
"Xiao Lu, we in Beijing are waiting for your return." Elder Ming and Elder Hua shook hands with him, said goodbye solemnly, and looked forward to meeting again in the future.
"Have a good trip." The two said goodbye to Lu Huaren, still a little reluctant. After all, the three of them helped each other and spent the difficult six years together, and their feelings were deep.
When passing by Shu Zhisheng's family of three, he also said: "Brother Shu, dawn has arrived. See you in Beijing."
"Congratulations, Mr. Ming and Mr. Hua. I'll take your good wishes and see you again in Beijing." Shu Zhisheng had a smile on his face. It seemed that this was the general trend. Their family would definitely be rehabilitated. It was just a matter of time.
With this reassurance, Mr. Shu's spirits became much brighter. If they hadn't been so ruthless and hadn't disappointed Yun Siying, Nangong would have definitely rehabilitated their family, and now they could have returned to the city with Mr. Ming and Mr. Hua.
Shu Jianguo looked at the backs of the two people leaving and asked, "Dad, if Elder Hua and Elder Ming can be rehabilitated and return to the city, can our family also be rehabilitated?"
"Well, we may have to wait for some time. The sons and grandsons of Lao Ming and Lao Hua will come to Beijing to negotiate and plan for us before we can be redressed in advance." Shu Zhisheng said, secretly sighing that the two of them really took one step and thought three steps ahead. Although they were released, the younger generations in their families can still stay in their original units safely.
"We have all persisted for so long. The dawn is in sight. Our family will surely be able to persevere." Shu Jianguo's eyes were filled with determination when he thought about returning to Beijing. In the past few years, fortunately, my son secretly sent us supplies every year, and Elder Ming and Elder Hua gave us help, otherwise, we would not have survived until the present.
The three men were much weaker than when they were first released, their faces were darker, their hands were covered with calluses from working, and their faces were marked by the years.
Nangong Boming hung up the phone and said to his father and wife at home: "Siying wants to take the college entrance examination. I didn't expect that Ruochen would agree."
"Hmph! You don't make as much money as Siying, and you can't beat Siying in a fight. You are suppressed to death. Do you have any other choice but to agree?" The old man snorted coldly. This grandson's wife is too outstanding. That brat is so lucky to marry such a wife.
Chen Minhui was happy to hear this and said, "It's good that Siying took the college entrance examination! If she gets admitted to a university in Beijing, she can come back to Beijing and live with me. The two children miss her."
The old man expressed his doubts: "I wonder if Ruochen knew something a long time ago, otherwise he wouldn't have planned to transfer back to Beijing since the beginning of the year?
"Maybe he doesn't want to be away from Momo and Xuanxuan for too long." Chen Minhui said from the side. How could her son be so capable as to know in advance about the resumption of the college entrance examination? Even the old man didn't know about this in advance?
Nangong Boming said proudly: "Siying's memory is very strong. She will definitely be admitted to Beijing University. It seems that our family will have a college student."
"Sister-in-law, your letters and packages."
Yun Siying heard someone knocking on the gate, and she came out to sign for two letters and two packages. After returning to the room, she opened the letter and looked very happy after reading it.
I happily started to open two packages, which contained meat, malted milk, canned food, biscuits and other food.
This was the scene Nangong Ruochen saw when he entered the house, and asked, "You look so happy, who sent you the package?"
"Guess." Yun Siying didn't answer.
"I can't guess, Ying'er, why don't you tell me who it is?" Nangong Ruochen came and sat next to her, helping her sort out the things in the package.
"Grandpa Ming and Grandpa Hua have been rehabilitated and returned to Beijing. They wrote to me saying that my master would also be rehabilitated and return to Beijing soon, and asked me not to worry. They also sent me a package. According to the time calculation, my master is now on his way back to the city." Yun Siying had a little pride on her face and seemed to be in a good mood.
"That's such a happy event. I'll go make you a delicious meal. How about we celebrate tonight?"
Yun Siying responded happily: "Okay, let's have a drink tonight."
As night fell, warm light fell on the dining table, illuminating the sumptuous dinner that Nangong Ruochen had carefully prepared. The table was filled with delicious dishes, each of which exuded an enticing aroma, making people salivate.
Yun Siying smiled and took out a bottle of precious red wine that they had looted from a foreign country. She gently opened the bottle cap, and a rich aroma of wine instantly spread, filling the entire room.
Nangong Ruochen and Yun Siying sat opposite each other. They first picked up a piece of delicious dish and put it in their mouths to savor it carefully, feeling the satisfaction brought by the food. Then, 꺗 raised the glass and said, "Come on, let's have a drink together."
“Okay.” They raised their glasses and clinked them together, then took a sip of the red wine, letting the mellow taste spread across their tongues and blend with the flavor of the food, forming an incomparable and wonderful taste experience.
Yun Siying showed a satisfied smile and praised: "It is indeed a good wine."
Outside the window, the breeze gently blew the curtains, and the moonlight poured into the house like water. While enjoying the sumptuous dinner, the two chatted quietly about the little things in each other's lives. Laughter rang out from time to time, echoing in this quiet and beautiful night. Our little life was really comfortable.
