Lu Weijun, the accountant, has to record work points for the villagers on weekdays. He really knows who is where.
He glanced at Shi Tingyu and knew that the second sister-in-law must be missing her parents, so he didn't hide it, "They are on the land beside the river in the west. Second brother, do you know that land?"
"Yes, we know each other." He still knew about Xihegou.
Lu Weijun added: "For the convenience of taking care of me, my dad is also in a field not far from that field. If you meet anyone on the road and ask, just tell me to go see my dad."
Lu Weiguo nodded, indicating that he understood.
Lu Weijun looked around again, and when he found no one, he whispered to the two of them: "Just look from a distance, don't get close. If you want to meet, go at night."
Although they haven't criticized anyone in the former West Brigade for a long time, they still have to be careful.
"Okay, I know what's appropriate." Lu Weiguo was very pleased with his cousin's attentiveness.
Shi Tingyu also thanked the Army Weijun.
Lu Weijun scratched his head and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, second sister-in-law? We are all a family. My uncle and aunt don't suffer much on weekdays, and we have never criticized them, so you can just take a look at it later. I will definitely Get a grip on yourself.”
Shi Tingyu nodded, finally feeling relieved.
The words spoken by the Army Guardsmen made her feel more real than the vague message of safety in the letter.
After bidding farewell to Lu Weijun, Lu Weiguo took Shi Tingyu to the direction of Xihegou.
Sure enough, on the way to the fields, people working in the fields often greeted them from a distance.
The people in the brigade are all enthusiastic, and the folks from the countryside always want to ask a few questions when they see a child who hasn't been back for a long time.
After hearing that Lu Weiguo said he wanted to go over and see Uncle Lu, everyone nodded.
"I haven't been back for a long time, so I had to take a look."
A kind-hearted villager said: "Does Weiguo know the place? Just go west, and we will reach Xihegou soon."
Lu Weiguo thanked the villagers and continued walking westward with Shi Tingyu.
As soon as their figures passed by, some villagers started talking in twos and threes.
While they were working, they were chatting and chatting without missing a beat.
"Did you see clearly just now that the face of the Weiguo wife is so white?"
"Seeing it, I have to say that I can't find anyone so handsome anywhere in the world."
"Who said it was difficult for Wei Guo to find a wife before?"
"I never said that Wei Guo definitely didn't set his sights on the village. Look, he has found such a beautiful daughter-in-law."
The reason why Lu Weiguo came to his hometown for a blind date in the first place was because he failed to get married in the town.
There happened to be a few high school students in the village, so the matchmaker introduced them to them.
The Lu family is a close family, and the woman's parents agreed to see each other. The woman had no other choice, so she came to see her.
They had met this person from the same village when they were young. They thought that they had not seen each other for almost ten years and that the person would be better as he grew older. Unexpectedly, when they met him, they found that not only was he more terrifying, but he also had scars on his face. I disagreed immediately.
The Lu family is used to this kind of result, and they don't force it. To put it bluntly, their Weiguo family is fierce in appearance, and other conditions are far behind these people. They don't like people who only care about face. .
Even if the blind date failed, forget it. Mr. Lu has an elder brother who looks very similar to Mr. Lu. Finally, Lu Jianshe, the grandson of Mr. Lu’s family, also inherited some of this appearance. Although he is somewhat different from Lu Weiguo, It's not pretty either.
The most important thing is that Lu Jianshe is not as promising as the grandsons of Mr. Lu's family. He is just a forager in the fields. He is now thirty-two and not yet married.
With this example in mind, everyone said it would be difficult for Lu Weiguo to find a wife, but they were not as sure as Lu Jianshe. After all, Lu Weiguo was still an officer.
Lu Weiguo didn't know the gossip about him in the village, and they soon saw Uncle Lu digging on the ground.
He shouted to Lu Erming: "Second uncle!"
Lu Erming looked up and saw the two people at the edge of the field. He put down his hoe and came over.
Looking at the eldest nephew in front of him and the niece-in-law beside him, his face was full of relief. To be honest, Lu Weiguo's marriage was not only worrying for the eldest brother and his family, he was also anxious and angry.
Now that I see that he not only married a wife, but also married such an upright person, I feel somewhat relieved.
Knowing that the two of them were most likely to come to see the two in the bullpen, he didn't say much to them. He pointed vaguely in the direction of his father and mother.
"The in-laws are over there."
Shi Tingyu looked in the direction he pointed and saw a couple in shabby clothes burying their heads on the ground.
They were almost integrated into the land, not out of place, but it made Shi Tingyu shed tears uncontrollably.
Perhaps the memory of the original owner was also involved. At this moment, looking at the hunched figures of his parents working, Shi Tingyu felt unspeakably uncomfortable.
They used to earn staggeringly high wages a month, and were exposed to various experiments and data every day. They were very different from the orderly work they do now in the fields.
Lu Weiguo quickly blocked Shi Tingyu's sight and quietly wiped away her tears.
Shi Tingyu tried hard to keep smiling.
Uncle Lu looked quite sad and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, nephew-in-law. Your parents are doing well over there and are in good health. Many educated youths who go to the countryside will get sick when they come. Your father Mom’s side doesn’t have it, don’t worry.”
Shi Tingyu took a deep breath, softened his expression, and looked at the two working people again.
If the people who were sent down were unrelated people, their parents would be digging the river at this time, and it would be the most tiring process.
Now it is easy to work on the ground, even if the ground near Xihegou is more difficult to plow than ordinary ground.
This is the result of the Lu family's secret help.
Xu Shi Tingyu's eyes were too eager, and Shi's father and mother, who were bending down to work, suddenly raised their heads and looked in her direction.
When they saw the figures of Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu, both of them widened their eyes in disbelief.
Shi Mu even put down her hoe and ran forward two steps subconsciously.
Fortunately, Shi's father reacted and quickly grabbed Shi's mother.
Shi's father's hand was shaking a little when he held Shi's mother. Even though they couldn't see her face clearly from a distance, they still recognized her daughter at a glance.
After the news came from their in-laws that the young couple was coming back to celebrate the New Year, they had been looking forward to this day, but they didn't expect that this day would come so unexpectedly.
Shi's mother's originally gentle face was now soaked with tears. No matter how hard or tiring she was here, she never shed a tear. Now that she saw her daughter's figure from a distance, she couldn't control it.
"Let's just pretend we don't know each other now and don't cause trouble to Xiaoyu and the others." Shi's father said with a trembling voice.
Shi's mother quickly wiped her tears, picked up the hoe again, and started working. She no longer looked in the direction of Shi Tingyu and the others. Only the water droplets that fell into the soil and disappeared instantly showed her uneasiness.
Shi Tingyu just looked at them. She saw Shi's mother's reaction just now, and she knew they had seen her.
It's just that I don't dare to recognize my relatives when they meet.
Lu Weiguo looked at him but couldn't do anything to help.
Uncle Lu sighed and looked at the sky. They had been living like this for almost ten years, and they didn't know when it would end.
