Quick Wear: Male supporting role, come to my arms quickly

Chapter 191 The Educated Female Youth of the Time 16

Chu's mother's father and mother both work in hospitals. They have seen too many soldiers who have been unable to move for half their lives due to injuries, and they know how many dangers a soldier faces.

Therefore, they were not very satisfied with their daughter's partner, especially since one of them was in Beijing and the other in Lian City.

Long-term separation will also weaken the relationship between husband and wife, which is not a good marriage no matter how you look at it.

But later they changed their minds because of the man's dedication to their daughter.

On the first day he came home, he wrote an application on the spot to be transferred to the Jingshi Military Region.

It was a critical period for him to be promoted to deputy regiment commander. It could be said that once he recovered from his injuries and returned, he would be the deputy regiment commander for sure.

But after coming to Beijing, there was no vacant position of deputy regiment commander, which meant that he would have to stay in the position of battalion commander for a few more years.

Even Chu's mother did not expect his behavior, but since her lover had given so much for her, she could not fall behind. She just said that she was willing to go to Lian City to join the army, but she had to wait until she graduated from university.

Seeing the deep affection between the two, the old couple could no longer say no and could only promise that if Chu's father could really be transferred to Beijing, they would agree to their marriage.

Later, Chu's father called home and asked his father to approve his transfer order, and the matter was done.

Chu's father officially became a battalion commander in the Beijing Military Region, and finally got his girl.

After the two got married, Chu's mother still lived in the school and returned to her own home during holidays. Her life was almost the same as before they got married.

After Chu's father arrived at the Beijing Military Region, he became even busier, so it was good enough for the two of them to see each other once a month.

However, every time they met, Chu's father would take on all the housework himself. Except for cooking, he could do everything from washing clothes to sweeping the floor.

She often appeared in the laundry room, which was mostly filled with women, carrying several basins of clothes and bed sheets. She even washed her parents' clothes together.

This made the neighbors around her extremely envious, and they kept saying that she had found a good husband.

Decades have passed, and they have four children, but Chu's father has not changed. He is still the man who goes home to do laundry whenever he has time.

Even though he is now a teacher, he does not rely on his status and still holds a basin by the river to wash the bed sheets, quilt covers, outer clothes and trousers at home.

Chu's mother felt that she had lived a very happy life. She had a husband who had been the same as she had been for decades and she had well-behaved and lovely children. There was nothing happier than this.

Now her youngest daughter has been admitted to university, the best university in the country, in Beijing. She has no regrets in her life.

After sighing, Chu's mother put the basin in her hand on the ground and started eating the food that Chu's father brought back.

Those stir-fried dishes that I used to be tired of eating now become delicious.

Two days later, Lianshi Railway Station.

"Dad, I'm here."

As soon as Chu Yuan got off the car, he saw Chu's father and quickly waved to him.

Chu's father was still looking around in the crowd. Logically speaking, there was only one bus from Jilin Province to Lian City, and his daughter must have come back on this bus.

However, since he hadn't seen her for a long time, Father Chu was still a little worried.

Suddenly hearing a familiar voice, he looked carefully, hurried forward, and took all the luggage his daughter was holding.

Looking at the four large bags in his hand, numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4, Father Chu said with some distress, "Why did you take so many things? Why not just mail them directly?"

"Some of it was mailed, and these were picked up later."

Sitting in the car, Chu's father began to ask his daughter about her life in the past year. The last time they met was during the Chinese New Year, when Chu Yuan took a half-month leave to go home for the New Year.

There is nothing special about life in Baiyun Village. I just go to work, cook, and go back to the house to read every day. At least this is what I can tell my parents.

As for whether she would go into the mountains to hunt or collect mountain products, Chu Yuan kept it all to herself.

After returning home, the table was already set with food, and Chu Yuan's two brothers also came with their wives and children.

One was to welcome Chu Yuan home, and the other was to celebrate the birth of a college student in the family.

Several nephews and nieces took turns surrounding her, calling her "little aunt" affectionately.

Chu Yuan opened one of his bags and took out the gifts he had brought for them - a new piece of clothing for each of them, a military green jacket for the boy and a dress for the girl.

The two sisters-in-law were both sensible people. When they saw Chu Yuan bought clothes for the children, they felt embarrassed and said that it was a waste of money.

"It's okay. These are all homespun cloth dyed by the villagers themselves. I asked the aunties in the village to make them for me. I hope the sisters-in-law don't mind."

How could the two sisters-in-law be dissatisfied? It was good enough for them to have new clothes to wear.

The children didn't understand any of this. They just knew that they had new clothes to wear. They were so happy and said they wanted to change into them right away.

But he was suppressed by his two sisters-in-law. They were about to eat, and it would be a shame to wear new clothes at this time if they got dirty.

Then Chu Yuan took out gifts for her two sisters-in-law, a box of Pechoin facial oil for each of them, both of which were high-end products she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative.

The two older brothers each had a pair of cotton shoes, which were also made by an aunt in the village.

After distributing the gifts, everyone sat down to eat.

As the protagonist of today, Chu Yuan was arranged to sit next to Chu's father.

Maybe it was because of the rare reunion, or maybe it was because of today’s dishes, but the table was filled with laughter.

After a sumptuous dinner, my brother and his sisters-in-law took their children home.

At this time Chu Yuan opened her other three packages. Except for one which contained daily necessities, the other two were specialties she brought back.

The things inside were similar to those sent back before, all dried chicken, dried rabbit and so on, as well as big bags of mountain products, dried black fungus, mushrooms, wild vegetables and so on.

This was her last chance to take out these things, so of course she had to bring more.

Chu's father and mother counted the things inside carefully. There were ten chickens and ten rabbits, and the remaining mountain products weighed dozens of kilograms.

They knew that this was their daughter's filial piety, but they felt sorry for her carrying all this way, and couldn't help but scold her: "Child, why did you bring these heavy things back home?"

"It's very convenient to get these things in the village, and they don't require tickets. Anyway, they are things that can be stored, so I brought some extra and saved them for later."

Father Chu saw a wooden box under the bundle and asked, "Yuanyuan, what's in this box?"

Chu Yuan pulled the box out from underneath and opened it in front of the two of them.

"This is a hundred-year-old ginseng. I got it from a hunter."

Chu's father and mother took a deep breath and said, wow, this is a hundred-year-old ginseng!
