Jiang Defu introduced Gu Yu to his wife An Jie and his two children during National Day and Military Day.
"Xiaoyu, are you sick from the boat ride? This is your National Day brother and Junqing brother. They will protect you from now on." An Jie knelt down, held Gu Yu's little hand and whispered softly.
"Chief of Staff Jiang, this is a letter written by Secretary Gu to you. These are some of Secretary Gu's belongings including his pension and Xiaoyu's luggage." Liu Sheng first took out a letter and then held it in his hand. The suitcase was handed to Jiang Defu, and tears fell down as he spoke.
Jiang Defu's hand holding the letter trembled slightly, he took the suitcase and put it on the ground, and opened the envelope directly.
As he watched, Jiang Defu's eyes were already red and he was holding back tears. The letter recalled their previous battlefield experiences, lamenting that they could not watch New China getting better and better, could not accompany Gu Yu to grow up, and failed to fulfill their father's responsibilities. He sincerely entrusted Gu Yu to him, which also explained The reason is that in addition to the fact that the two are fellow villagers and comrades-in-arms, there are also concerns about the natural disasters in the past few years. At this time, Songshan Island, which is isolated from the mainland, is not affected much. It is like a paradise, and the beloved son of his parents is. The plan was far-reaching. Gu Gang used his fiery ideals to burn himself and achieve the well-being of his family and country. At the last moment of his battle with the disease, he could not help but think about his son Gu Yu.
When Jiang Defu read the letter and looked at the sea, his mood could not calm down for a long time. The villagers who accompanied Gu Yu and Liu Sheng moved all the things they had brought and came to Liu Sheng. After confirming with him that the person in front of them was Gu Gang's comrade, they suddenly knelt down and scared Jiang Defu. A jump,
"I can't do it, I can't do it, what are you doing? Get up!" Jiang Defu quickly pulled up the people in front of him, and called An Jie and Liu Sheng, as well as the soldiers who brought the moving things to help them up. Gu Yu also trotted away Come over and help Jiang Defu pull up the leader. Because he had contact with Liu Sheng before and knew that they brought a lot of things, Jiang Defu also called for help.
"You are Secretary Gu's comrade-in-arms Chief Jiang, right? Xiaoyu is begging you. The folks in our county were sorry for him and made him lose his parents at a young age. Secretary Gu is our great benefactor. If it weren't for him, this would I don’t know how many people will starve to death in a few years. We beg you to take good care of this child. You are the person Secretary Gu trusts. You are definitely right. But we are not at ease. We don’t know a few words and can’t speak. I am begging you to take good care of him. If you are in trouble and cannot continue to take care of him, please tell us and we will take the child back. We are poor in the county, but we will raise this child even if we sell everything. How can I live up to the parents of this child if I am an adult?" The middle-aged man in the lead cried. He was tall and thin, his skin was vicissitudes of life, and his hands were covered with calluses from farm work.
Jinling County is an agricultural county. In this era, there are not many people who have truly left agricultural production, and the urban population is very small.
The villagers who followed behind also shed tears. In their hearts, they were grateful for the passing of Secretary Gu and felt guilty for Gu Yu who had become an orphan.
"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of him. Brother Gu and I are comrades-in-arms from the same hometown. He is not only my leader on the revolutionary road, but also saved my life on the battlefield. Don't worry, I will take care of him." Treat Yu as his own child." Jiang Defu held his hand tightly and said with an oath.
Liu Sheng and the folks from Jinling County did not stay to eat. After bidding farewell to Gu Yu reluctantly, they set off on their way home. It would take them two or three days to get home.
"Xiaoyu, this is your new home, is it okay? Is this yard quite big? You can play here with your two brothers in the future." Jiang Defu hugged Gu Yu and introduced him to the island along the way. life, came to the residence.
Although Gu Yu has the memory of an adult, he cried when they parted just now, and his eyes are still red now.
After Jiang Defu directed the soldiers to place the things brought by Liu Sheng and his party in the yard, and they would be packed away later, the couple took Gu Yu into the back room first.
The house was allocated to Jiang Defu by the army according to the treatment of division-level cadres. In this era, he lived in a house with four bedrooms and two living rooms. There is a row of wash basins at the entrance, facing the dining room, and to the left is the living room. Inside is Jiang Defu Anjie's main room. Bedroom, there are two bedrooms on the right side of the dining room, there is another bedroom in front plus kitchen, plus a private bathroom in the yard, and judging from the location, this is a small courtyard with sea view. The living conditions are very good even if they are modern. .
"Xiaoyu, this is your bedroom. We have decorated it a little. I don't know if you like it or not." Anjie took Gu Yu's little hand and asked softly, with a bit of uncertainty and nervousness in his tone.
Gu Yu also looked at his bedroom. It was right next to the dining room. It should have been the room of Jiang Yafei and Jiang Yaning who was not yet born. The room was very large. After placing the bed, cabinets, and tables, it still looked full of space. There were also shell decorations. Wind chimes, a small wooden horse beside the bed, and a display cabinet with various toys, wooden swords, and wooden guns.
Gu Yu could feel the thoughts of Jiang Defu and his wife. Although for him, well, he seemed to want to play with these toys. Anyway, the eldest brother, who was following his parents on National Day and Jun Qing, stared at them, filled with excitement after seeing these. They were envious, but their good tutoring made them know that these belonged to their new younger brother. Their parents reiterated to them many times that they must love and protect Gu Yu.
"Thank you, uncle and aunt for taking the trouble, I like it very much," Gu Yu obediently bowed to An Jie and Jiang Defu.
Looking at the sensible Gu Yu, An Jie couldn't help but feel uncomfortable and even more distressed. He hugged Gu Yu and cried.
"Xiaoyu, don't be so polite to us in the future, stay at home." Jiang Defu wanted to say something, but then he thought that Gu Yu had just arrived and it would definitely take time to adapt.
"Well, National Day and Military Day, you take Xiaoyu to have fun, remember what mom and dad told you. Anjie, let's go pack Xiaoyu's luggage. It's already late, it's time to prepare dinner." Jiang Defu smiled. He pulled up An Jie, who was squatting on the ground and hugging Gu Yu, and gave a few instructions.
"Well, yes, it's National Day and Military Day. You are brothers. You have to take good care of your brother. Xiaoyu, what do you want to eat? Auntie will cook it for you." Anjie stood up, wiped his tears and asked softly,
"I can do anything. I like to eat whatever I want." Gu Yu replied in a sweet voice, and received another pat on the head with a smile from An Jie.
The couple left Gu Yu's bedroom to give the children time to get familiar with each other.
"I am Jiang Guoqing, and he is my younger brother. His name is Jiang Junqing. Dad said that from now on you will be our younger brother, and we will definitely protect you." Guoqing patted his chest and promised like a little adult, Jun Qing He also nodded vigorously.
Wouldn't it be more convincing if you could wipe the snot from your nose? Also, should you stop staring at the toys a little bit?
Gu Yu looked at the two children in front of him with helpless expressions. You must know that his mental age was 27, while the one opposite him was 6 years old and the other was 4 and a half years old.
