It was already eleven-thirty when Gong Linglong knocked on Shui's door again. She came with Lu Jingchuan. The jeep was parked at the street corner outside, carrying a bag of white bread and steamed buns in her hand.
After the two of them entered the room, Bai Narcissus introduced them to both parties, "Teacher, this is my son-in-law Lu Jingchuan. He is a soldier and works in the Seoul Military Region."
After that, he introduced his son-in-law: "Jingchuan, this is Professor Shui Tingyi, and this is his lover on the bed. Next to him are their daughter Shui Meirong, and their two grandsons Shui Hongjie and Shui Hongbin. Last time My hands were burned, and the burn medicine you gave me is the ancestral secret medicine of Professor Shui's family."
Lu Jingchuan took a step forward and shook hands with the elder, "Professor Shui, I have heard of you for a long time, but we have suffered a lot these years."
"Comrade Xiao Lu, you look familiar. Have we met before?"
Professor Shui had been looking at him since he entered the room. He always felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember him.
"Professor Shui, my hometown is Kyoto, my grandfather is Lu Jingtang, and my grandpa is Zhou Zhangchao. You should have met my grandpa."
Upon hearing the names of these two old leaders, the second elder of the Shui family and Shui Meirong were both shocked. Professor Shui was silent for two or three seconds before speaking: "I just said that they look familiar. You look two-thirds like Zhou." The old general has the charm of his youth."
Lu Jingchuan smiled when he heard this, "Yes, among all the grandchildren, I am the most like grandpa."
Professor Shui also raised a smile, looked at the young couple standing side by side, and praised with a smile: "The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, a match made in heaven."
"Thanks."
Lu Jingchuan smiled and accepted the elders' praise and blessing, and handed Shui Meirong the pasta he just bought at the state-owned hotel, "Aunt Shui, I came in a hurry just now and didn't prepare any special gifts. I just bought some buns and steamed buns for today's lunch. , you can simply eat some."
"Xiao Lu, thank you."
The Shui family was living in embarrassment now, and they were worried about the next meal. Shui Meirong stopped being pretentious and took this bag of pasta and shared it with everyone.
Lu Jingchuan and his wife didn't want to ask for it, so they let the Shui family keep it. He also talked about business with the two elders: "Professor Shui, I already know about your family's affairs. I want to ask more, where are your son and daughter-in-law now?" ?”
"My son and daughter-in-law are both studying Western medicine. They were sent by the government to study in country D twelve years ago. At that time, one of the two grandchildren was less than four years old and the other was two years old. In order to support their further studies and serve the country, my wife chose to retire early and concentrate on Taking care of two grandchildren at home.”
"Two years later, the special period began. We have two international students in our family. Coupled with my job and my character and temperament, I don't want to join them. From now on..."
Professor Shui said nothing more and sighed: "The last time I received a letter from them was seven years ago. They also wanted to return it, but I didn't let them return it."
The current situation is special. There is no use for them to return home at this time, and they cannot change the current situation of the Shui family.
Professor Shui once thought of sending his two grandsons abroad to reunite their family of four abroad, but although their two grandsons were young, they were very stubborn and unwilling to leave their side.
In addition, their wife and daughter are in poor health and need someone to take care of them. As he gets older, his body begins to decline and he is no longer able to do many things. The family needs two and a half-year-old grandsons to make money to support their lives, so he has been struggling in recent years. I have no idea of sending them abroad.
Lu Jingchuan knew it well and didn't ask any more questions. He said about his arrangement: "Professor Shui, I heard that your friends secretly helped you return to Seoul. Now the whole family is using false identities. Since In this way, I will arrange a suitable place for you to go, and the hands of the Meng family will never be able to reach it, but I will still have to make you continue to use a false identity."
Professor Shui said hurriedly: "Xiao Lu, there is nothing wrong with this. As long as I can protect my family, I am willing to remain anonymous for the rest of my life."
"Then you don't need to remain anonymous for a lifetime. When the black fog dissipates, you can return."
Lu Jingchuan gave the correct answer and believed that this day was coming soon. He said with a serious look: "You don't have to wait too long, it's almost here."
With his family background, he would definitely be exposed to more news about power struggles. Professor Shui knew what he was saying. He choked up and nodded: "Xiao Lu, I understand, thank you."
"Okay, you eat first, and then pack your bags. Bring what you can use, and throw away what you can't."
Seeing that he had made arrangements, Bai Narcissus asked: "Jingchuan, where will you arrange for the teacher and the others to go?"
"There is a medicinal material planting base under the jurisdiction of the Seoul Military Region, only a dozen miles away from the military garrison. Professor Shui is a professor of traditional Chinese medicine and should know the growth habits of medicinal materials. I arranged for them to live there for a period of time, and I just asked Professor Shui for professional guidance. Teach me."
"Jingchuan, this place is well organized."
Bai Narcissus was particularly satisfied and told him with a smile: "My wife was cultivating Chinese medicinal materials before she retired, and the teacher is also an expert in handling Chinese medicinal materials. They are both suitable for this job."
"That's great. The medicinal material base needs the guidance of two experts."
Before Lu Jingchuan came, he went to see Commander Zhu and Political Commissar Zhao. After they learned what happened to the Shui family, they decided to protect them without saying a word. This place was also suggested by Commander Zhu.
"Xiao Lu, there's no point in giving advice. My half-dead body would have only been a drag on people in the past." Grandma Shui sighed.
"Teacher's wife, no, you are not in good health yet. I will find a way to buy you a wheelchair and give you some good medicine. You will be reunited happily with your son and daughter-in-law in the future."
"Wantang, I'm causing trouble for you." Grandma Shui held her hand tightly.
"Teacher, please don't say such unreasonable things. Once I am a teacher, I am always a father. You and the teacher are like parents to me. Taking good care of your health is what children should do."
Grandma Shui's eyes filled with tears when she heard what she said: "Good boy, you are a good boy, your parents..."
"Master's wife, my parents are very happy in heaven. They must be happy with their two brothers by their side." Bai Narcissus thought of her parents, her eyes instantly turned red and she held tears.
They had just been chatting here for a long time. The Shui family already knew that the disaster in the Gong family was not an accident, and they also knew her experiences over the years. Grandma Shui felt heartbroken and uncomfortable: "You child, you are so kind and kind, why do you have such a miserable life. "
"The suffering is over. Now everything is moving in a good direction. It will get better and better in the future." Bai Narcissus comforted her and herself.
After chatting with them for a while, after Shui Meirong and the others packed their simple luggage and Professor Shui checked out the house, Lu Jingchuan immediately carried Grandma Shui on his back, and the group went to the alley and took a car to leave.
