"I'm going back to Beijing in two days. Do you want to go with me?" Du Qiao found Gu Tingxiao and invited him.

"Okay..." Gu Tingxiao thought about it and agreed, because he knew that this day would come sooner or later, and it would be better to face it sooner.

"Then I'll call and talk to my parents first." Du Qiao didn't expect that he would agree so readily, and he was immediately excited.

"Okay, I'll call home too." Gu Tingxiao thought about it and decided to tell his parents.

"Okay, then we'll go together and go home together in two days." Du Qiao was so happy that he didn't mind him calling home.

After all, if the Gu family hadn't taken his brother away for adoption, his brother might have already ceased to exist in this world. For this, he only has endless gratitude in his heart!

Then the two of them left the army and came to the place where they made phone calls. Because there was only one phone in this place, Du Qiao asked Gu Tingxiao to make the call first, and he would wait until he finished calling before making his call again.

Gu Tingxiao had no objection and directly dialed the village phone. Soon the call was picked up by the village chief.

"Hey, who are you looking for?"

"Uncle, it's me, Laowu. Please go to my house and ask my parents to come over. I have something to tell them." Gu Tingxiao glanced at the sky and knew that his father and mother should be having lunch at home at this time.

"Okay, I'll go right away. Call me back in five minutes." The village chief agreed readily, thought about the distance and gave a time.

"Okay, thank you uncle!" Gu Tingxiao knew that keeping the call connected would cost phone bills, so he had no objection. After the village chief hung up, he also hung up the phone.

"How is it? Did you say it?" Du Qiao blurted out after seeing Gu Tingxiao hang up the phone. After realizing what he was asking, he looked a little embarrassed, "I... I mean..."

Du Qiao still wanted to explain. He didn't want Gu Tingxiao to think that he was too impatient, and he didn't want him to think that he was restricting him.

"No! The village chief has gone to call someone, and it will take a few minutes." Compared to Du Qiao's helplessness, Gu Tingxiao spoke very easily, as if he didn't take it to heart.

"Oh, I forgot that my aunt's house is a bit far from where the phone is." Du Qiao touched the back of his head, secretly cursing himself for being a careless person.

"Well... but it will be soon." Gu Tingxiao glanced at the watch on his hand.

Neither of them spoke, waiting quietly for the time to come. After five minutes, Gu Tingxiao dialed the number again.

As soon as the phone rang over there, it was brought to someone’s ear, and Mother Gu’s breathless voice rang out, “Is that Lao Wu?”

"Mom, it's me. Why are you breathing so loudly? Are you tired?" Gu Tingxiao asked with concern.

"No, the weather has been getting hotter recently. I was just too hot. It's okay. I'll be fine after a break." What Mother Gu didn't say was that when she and Father Gu heard the village chief say that he called back, they didn't even have time to eat and ran over in a hurry, even losing one of their shoes.

Gu Tingxiao saw through it but didn't say anything, nor did he expose his mother's white lie. "Mom, if you are too tired, don't go to work in the fields. I can support you and my dad."

"Why are you tired? Not at all. Your father and I can still work. Besides, how can we just lie down and do nothing every day? If we do this for a long time, our bodies will become rusty."

"Your father and I are still in good health. Don't worry. We can still work for another ten or eight years. Just take good care of yourself in the army." Gu's mother didn't want Gu Tingxiao to think too much, so she comforted him with a few words.

"Let me say a few words to Lao Wu." Father Gu was extremely anxious, but as soon as he finished speaking, he was frightened by Mother Gu's warning look, and instantly became at a loss.

"Mom, is my dad here too?" At first, Gu Tingxiao thought his father hadn't come! He then realized that it was his mother who didn't let him answer the phone, and he immediately felt a little amused!

"Yes, I'm here!" When saying this, Mother Gu glared at Father Gu several times, as if blaming Father Gu for interrupting her conversation with Gu Tingxiao.

"Then I'll talk to him too! Give him the phone number!"

"Okay, wait a moment." After saying that, Mother Gu reluctantly handed the phone to Father Gu!

Father Gu didn't hesitate at all. He took the phone and put it to his ear. He was not afraid! He had the support of his youngest son!

"Laowu, it's me, Dad!" As soon as Father Gu got the phone, he couldn't wait to speak.

"Well, Dad, are you okay?"

"Okay, okay, I'm in good health, you don't have to worry, just take care of yourself in the army." Father Gu raised the corners of his mouth, and it can be seen that he was in a good mood!

"Dad, how long do you want to talk? I still want to talk to Lao Wu!"

"I just said two sentences!" Father Gu felt a little aggrieved. He hadn't even warmed up the microphone!

Gu Tingxiao also heard their conversation, so he thought of a compromise, "Dad, put the microphone in the middle, so you can listen to it with Mom."

"Okay, your idea is good." After hearing this, Father Gu immediately did as Gu Tingxiao said.

"Dad, Mom, can you hear me?"

"able…"

"able…"

Father Gu and Mother Gu answered in unison.

"Okay, I want to tell you something! After I'm done, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly, don't keep it in your heart." Gu Tingxiao gave them a shot of prevention first!

"Okay, just tell me what you want to say."

When the village chief heard that they had something to say, he walked out and closed the door for them.

"I'm going to Beijing in a couple of days. I want to meet them." After Gu Tingxiao finished speaking, he listened attentively to the conversation on the other end of the phone, fearing that his father and mother would disagree.

After hearing this, Gu's father and mother were silent for a while. They naturally knew who Gu Tingxiao was referring to, but they didn't expect that this day would come so soon!

But didn't they already know that this would be the outcome the day they decided to speak out about it?

So Mother Gu took a deep breath and said with a smile, "It's time to go back and take a look. Remember to say hello to them for me and your father."

"Mom, won't you stop me?"

"Silly child! Why would I stop you! This is a good thing. This way, more people will be nice to you in the future." Mother Gu tried her best not to cry when she said this.

"Yes! Your mother and I have the same idea. Don't feel any psychological burden. If you want to go, just go. Mom and I will definitely support you."

Father Gu on the side also took the opportunity to say a few words and expressed his attitude.

"Well, thank you, Dad and Mom!"

Gu Tingxiao was grateful in his heart. Although he could have completely ignored their feelings and gone to Beijing to meet the Du family, he knew that it was wrong. Getting their support was more important than anything else.

"What's there for this silly kid to thank you for! Remember to call back and let us know you're safe when you get to Beijing."

"Okay, I understand." There was no reason for Gu Tingxiao to refuse.

"Okay, then I'll hang up. Your father and I will go home first."

"Okay, Dad and Mom, please take care of your health. I will go back to see you when I have a holiday." Gu Tingxiao was afraid that they would feel sad, so he immediately said that he would go home when he had a holiday.

"Okay, your father and I will be waiting for you to come back." After saying this, Mother Gu hung up the phone first.

"How is it?" Du Qiao asked impatiently. He was really afraid that Gu Tingxiao would change his mind after the call.

"The schedule remains unchanged. I'm leaving first. You can play slowly by yourself!" Gu Tingxiao was still thinking about preparing some gifts, otherwise it would be too rude to come to the door without bringing anything for the first time.

"Okay, then you go back first! I think the fight will take a while." Du Qiao didn't intend for him to stay here.
