Chapter 451, Number 2! Long County, Long Time No See
The next morning, when Su Niannian got up, Gu Nan was already up as usual.
Because it's the weekend, Gu Ningning doesn't have to go to school today.
But Gu Nan had to go to the army base, so after breakfast, Su Niannian reluctantly saw Gu Nan off to the door.
In the courtyard, Gu's mother couldn't help but chuckle as she watched the young couple's affectionate and reluctant expressions.
"Mom, my second brother and sister-in-law have such a good relationship." Gu Ningning stood next to her mother, stuffed a bite of egg pancake into her mouth, and said.
"Yes." Gu's mother smiled, glancing at Gu Ningning who was still eating an egg pancake.
"Didn't you just finish eating? Why are you still eating!" Gu's mother said to Gu Ningning, and then she saw Gu Zhendong and Zhao Tian talking about something, and then the two of them smiled.
"Big brother and sister-in-law have a very good relationship!" Gu Ningning took another bite of the egg pancake and continued.
"Yes!" Gu's mother felt that both of her sons had found their other halves.
I feel really comforted.
Unlike some mothers-in-law who get jealous when they see their son and daughter-in-law getting along well.
Gu's mother felt that as long as her two sons could live happily, she could die in peace.
Gu's mother, who had been smiling happily, suddenly remembered something, and her happy expression vanished.
Seeing her mother's change, Gu Ningning no longer found the egg pancake in her hand appealing.
Seeing her mother's low spirits, Gu Ningning suddenly realized something.
Place the unfinished egg pancake on an empty plate to the side.
He hugged his mother.
"Mother, do you miss Father?"
Yes, my two older brothers have both found their happiness and are now happily married, but I still don't know where my father is.
I'm living a good life every day now, from when my second sister-in-law married into the family until my second brother returned to his unit.
Gu Ningning feels that she is very happy every day now, with enough to eat and wear and the opportunity to go to school.
But what about his own father?
My father was sent to the countryside alone, and I don't know what kind of life he's living now.
Whether or not we can get enough to eat, whether or not we are living well.
Thinking of this, Gu Ningning's eyes also reddened.
Gu's mother looked down at Gu Ningning and knew that the girl must have thought the same thing as her.
I shouldn't have made the girl worry.
Gu's mother patted Gu Ningning's head and said, "Good child, as long as you're alive, there's hope."
"Father will come back sooner or later."
"Don't think about it too much," Gu's mother said, her voice becoming a little hoarse.
Gu Ningning nodded upon hearing this.
She originally intended to comfort her mother, but ended up being comforted by her mother instead.
Su Niannian also came back from the door and saw the mother and daughter hugging each other, both looking depressed and on the verge of tears.
He frowned and walked over.
"Mom, Ningning, what's wrong with you?" Su Niannian asked worriedly.
Gu Zhendong and Zhao Tian, who were over there, also hurried over after hearing Su Niannian's words.
Gu Zhendong no longer needs Zhao Tian's help to walk.
But Zhao Tian still helped Gu Zhendong a little.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Gu Zhendong asked.
"Oh, it's nothing, I just suddenly thought of your father."
"It's alright, it's alright!" Gu's mother said, trying to appear calm.
This is a time for the family to be happy together, so how can I make them worry because I'm overthinking things?
Gu Ningning hugged her mother's waist tightly and shook her head as well.
Upon hearing that it reminded them of their fathers, the group became somewhat downcast.
Su Niannian hugged her mother and said with a smile, "Mom, things will get better, everything will be alright."
“Yes, the policy might change at any time, and then Daddy will be able to come back,” Zhao Tian added.
The others nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
Everyone believes that things will get better day by day.
In the future, there will definitely be a time when the family can get together.
Su Niannian felt that this day was definitely not far off.
"Gu Ningning!! Your hands are covered in oil after you took the egg pancake, and you've smeared it all over my clothes!" Gu's mother noticed that Gu Ningning's hands were oily and smeared it on her clothes, and rolled her eyes at Gu Ningning.
Gu Ningning shrugged, indicating that it wasn't intentional.
As a result, everyone present burst into laughter.
At the same time, two men appeared outside the military compound, asking questions at the gate.
There were a few women over there, near the entrance of the military compound, who spotted two unfamiliar faces at the gate.
Filled with curiosity, the women went over to take a look.
Whose relatives are these two unfamiliar men?
As a result, we heard the names Gu Nan and Su Niannian from the two of them.
"Oh! The cousin of the beautiful young wife of the Gu family!"
"I know I know!"
The two men had just told the soldiers on guard duty about what had happened when someone was sent to inform the Gu family.
As a result, several aunties and older women gathered around.
She spoke to the two men very enthusiastically.
The two men were also somewhat surprised. Why were the people in the military family compound in Beijing so enthusiastic?
"That young lady is quite capable; she can even treat illnesses. My years-long rheumatism and joint pain have improved considerably."
"Yes, she's a very kind girl. Your family is so lucky to have such a wonderful daughter."
"You're here to visit relatives, right? If you're tired, you can sit under the shade of that tree for a while."
Several older women praised Su Niannian while conveying their goodwill.
The two men, on the other hand, were practically floating on air from the enthusiastic aunties and grandmas' flattery.
When the soldier who went to inform the Gu family brought Su Niannian over, Su Niannian saw two familiar people sitting under the shade of a tree.
The old lady over there was scooping out sunflower seeds, while the old lady over here asked them if they wanted an apple to quench their thirst.
Su Niannian smiled when she saw the two of them.
My helper! They've arrived!
"And they arrived so quickly!" Su Niannian smiled, thanked the soldier next to her, and walked over.
When the two men saw Su Niannian, their smiles practically reached the sky.
It felt like seeing a family member.
"Little Su girl."
"Hey you two, it's been a long time!" Su Niannian greeted them with a smile.
Then I registered at the gate and chatted with a few aunties nearby.
Several aunties said that Su Niannian's medical skills were really good. After taking the medicine according to Su Niannian's prescription, their health improved a lot.
It's a condition like joint pain or rheumatism. You can only improve the symptoms. It will still flare up when it's cloudy, rainy, or when the weather is bad, or when you're tired.
Su Niannian smiled and said, "I'm currently making a plaster specifically for this kind of ailment. Once it's ready, I can give it to the older women to try."
