Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 791: Arrangements for Returning to Beijing (1)

When Mr. Zou heard Zhou Mingxuan say that the captain asked Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao to go home on leave after accompanying the hunting team into the mountains, he could not help but remind them,

“Since it’s the captain’s request, you two should follow his wishes.

After all, you are in the countryside with the production team, on someone else's territory, so you still have to give the team leader some face.

Besides, the captain always takes good care of you.

If the production team did not trust you, they would not open a farm at your request and let you help them sell their products.

If you were to change production teams, your life in the countryside would not be so comfortable."

Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao nodded quickly, "Grandpa Zou, you don't need to say more, we all understand.

We have promised the captain that we will go home on leave only after we go into the mountains with the hunting team."

Mr. Zou nodded, "That's good."

After listening to the conversation between the two people, Liu Weihua couldn't help but said to Liu Jianjun,

"Jianjun, when the hunting team goes into the mountains, you should follow them and protect the members of the production team.

When we were sent down here, the members of the production team never bullied us.

Whenever the team distributed anything, we were never short of anything.

Also, when the team members came to see your mother, they never came empty-handed, they always brought something.

The members of the Red Star Production Team have been very kind to those of us who were sent down to the countryside, and we should be grateful.”

Elder Wu on the side nodded and said with emotion, "What Wei Hua said is right.

Compared with the people who were sent down from other places, the cadres and team members of the Red Star Production Team were really nice to us.

I have heard about the lives of people who were transferred to other places.

We have met a good person.”

"Don't worry, Dad. I will go into the mountains with the hunting team and will protect the members of the production team," Liu Jianjun promised.

After everyone finished speaking, Wang Xiulan finally found a chance to interrupt.

She looked at Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao expectantly,

"Mingxuan, Junhao, can you go back in two days after Jianguo and the others arrive?

I want you to get to know each other and treat each other as family members.

You don't have to worry about them having no place to stay when they come.

Then let Jianguo and Jianjun live there, and Yumei and Xiaohu will live with Xiaoxue."

Zhou Mingxuan glanced at Liu Jingxue when he heard this. He was naturally happy to get to know Liu Jianguo's family.

"I want to, too, but I don't know when Brother Jianguo and his family will come."

"I estimate it will be a few days before the New Year. It shouldn't be too early," Liu Weihua estimated.

He looked at Liu Jianjun and said, "Go to town some other day and call your brother to get confirmation from him."

“Mingxuan, Junhao, I’ll make the decision for you.

If time permits, you can come to Jianguo's family, meet them, and then go back.

If you go back too early, you will be alone at home. Your parents and your grandfather will be busier and busier as it gets to the end of the year.

You might as well go back later so that you don’t have to stay alone in the empty room.

Anyway, it only takes one night to get back to Beijing by train, so it won’t delay your return home for the New Year.

It's a rare opportunity for Jianguo and his friends to come here.

If you miss this opportunity, you won't know when you can meet again in the future." said Mr. Wu.

Old Wu knew in his heart that if it was true as what Old Zhang said in the letter, and Liu Weihua and his wife were rehabilitated, it would be difficult for them to meet again.

And it is even more impossible for Liu Jianguo and his family to come here in the future.

This year might be their only chance to meet, so they can’t miss it.

Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao looked at each other, and after a moment of eye contact, Zhao Junhao nodded at Zhou Mingxuan.

"Grandpa, we will listen to you." Zhou Mingxuan replied after getting a signal from Zhao Junhao.

When Liu Weihua heard this, he immediately said to Liu Jianjun, "Jianjun, when you call your elder brother, tell him about this.

Ask him to estimate the time and come a few days earlier so as not to delay Mingxuan and Junhao from going home for the New Year."

"Don't worry, Dad. I'll tell my brother."

After they finished discussing, Liu Jingxue spoke, "I told you earlier to ask your grandfather to send someone to drive over and pick you up.

Later I thought about it and felt something was not right.

It's winter now and the roads are blocked by heavy snow. I'm afraid no one has cleared the snow on the road, which is too unsafe.

It would be better for you to take a bus back and let them send someone to pick you up at the train station.

As for there being too many things, you two can’t get them in the car.

When the time comes, my second brother and I will see you off and put your things in the car.

When you get there, ask your grandfather to send someone to pick you up on the train."

Hearing this, Zou Lao said, "This is a good idea, so your grandfather doesn't have to send someone to pick you up.

You are already such a big boy, and you are not still breastfeeding, so you don’t need someone to accompany you when you go back home.”

Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao both want to save face and will definitely not admit that they are children who have not been weaned.

After the two of them exchanged glances, Zhao Junhao said, "That's fine.

But in this case, the original plan to bring back some living things would no longer be appropriate.

There are too many things and they are too heavy. I don’t know where to put them.”

Liu Jingxue recalled that in modern times, she saw a scene in the Northeast using a large bucket to make an ice bucket to freeze meat while browsing a certain audio app. She couldn't help but say,

“You definitely can’t bring live animals with you, as it’s not allowed on the train, but you can kill them and bring them with you.

Anyway, the weather is cold now and it only takes one night on the road, so the meat won’t go bad.

If it is really impossible, we can use the method of making ice lanterns to make a big ice bucket and freeze the meat in it."

After that, she said worriedly, “It’s just that there are too many things and there is no place to put them, which is indeed a problem.

There are so many things and it is impossible to put them on the luggage rack.

But if I put it somewhere else, I wouldn’t feel at ease without seeing it with my own eyes.”

Wang Xiulan nodded, "The other things are fine, they are just some cured fish and cured meat, so they can be thrown away.

But that ginseng wine is too valuable, and I would not feel at ease if I don’t keep it under my own nose.

There are too many thieves on the train, and we might even run into bad guys. There are only two of us, and we have too many things, so it's really unsafe."

"Or I can just send them back to Beijing.

Anyway, the journey was not long, so after sending them to Beijing, I quickly bought a return ticket.

With me here, the things won't get lost, and you don't have to worry about their safety." Liu Jianjun suggested.

When Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao heard this, they thought this was impossible.

They really thought they were unweaned children who needed others to send them home.

Zhou Mingxuan quickly said, "No, there's no need for Brother Jianjun to send us back, we can go back by ourselves."

"Yes, there's no need for Brother Jianjun to send us off, the two of us can do it.

Although we can't beat you, with our abilities, we can still be considered masters if we meet someone else.

Brother Jianjun, you should stay at home and spend time with Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu." Zhao Junhao also declined.

"that is.

Brother Jianjun has finally come here. He was away for such a long time last time and will have to return to the army after the New Year. I don’t know when his next home visit leave will be. It would be better for him to spend more time with Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu.

As for the two of us, we are old enough and not children anymore. We can handle it ourselves."

Liu Weihua clinked glasses with Mr. Zou and took a sip of wine, "I think Jianjun's suggestion is good, let him take you back.

This way, you don’t have to worry about not being able to transport things.”

"You really treat them like children, asking Jianjun to take them back for such a short distance.

Don't spoil them, just let them go back on their own." Mr. Wu refused.

Liu Weihua said, "It's not that I spoil them, it's mainly because there are too many things and the ginseng wine is too expensive.

We are not worried about losing things.”
