"I'm back. I'm going to go find my grandparents first. I'll come play with you guys later."
Yang Zhen and Liang Jun were turning the soil in the farthest and hardest part of the field. There was no one around. Taotao walked over and saw them resting. "Grandpa and grandma, I'm back."
"Lao Yang, Taotao is back." The couple stood up. "Hey, slow down, slow down, don't run."
The eldest grandson went to the northwest. To be honest, the couple couldn't sleep, for they were afraid that something might happen to their eldest grandson while he was away on a long trip, and if something really happened, they wouldn't be able to help.
"Taotao, how are you? Have you seen your parents? Are they okay?"
"I've seen him, and that's good." Mom and Dad said that as long as he can eat and drink and there's nothing wrong with his body, he's fine. Even if he's not feeling well, we can't tell grandparents because they're old and will worry.
"That's fine, that's fine. What about you? Are you not used to it over there? You look a lot thinner."
The grandson was not hungry when he was with them, so he had some flesh on his face. But after only half a month away, all the flesh on his face is gone.
Taotao touched his face and said, "I'm not used to it. I didn't have much appetite over there. I ate less, so the fat on my face disappeared.
Grandpa and grandma, mom has made clothes for you. Go back and try them on later. You will definitely like them.
Dad has written a bunch of letters, Grandpa, you might need to read them for three or four days." As his son was leaving, Yang Cheng wrote down everything he wanted to say to his parents in the letters, and he couldn't stop writing.
"Are your parents in good health?" The conditions there were not good, and Yang Zhen was worried about his son and daughter-in-law's health.
"They're fine, but they're too thin." Taotao felt very sad about his parents, who were even thinner than the people in Shenjiaba Brigade. They were like skin and bones, and their clothes were loose on them.
Liang Jun sighed heavily. They were short of food here, let alone in the northwest where crops could not be grown.
"In the future, we can save some of our own food rations and send them to them."
The couple was still worried about their son and daughter-in-law who were far away in the northwest, and had no idea that they were about to be rehabilitated and return to the city.
Three days later, a car arrived. Shen Erzhu brought people to the cowshed and said that they had been rehabilitated. The couple was confused. It was not until they got into the car that Yang Zhen came to his senses. "Captain, please pass on a message for me. I will write to Shu Yu when I get back and settle down."
They came quickly and left quickly. When Shen Shuyu arrived at the cowshed, the car had already gone far away.
The people from the Shenjiaba Brigade surrounded Shen Erzhu and asked, "Captain, weren't they sent down to the countryside? How can they be rehabilitated? It seems those leaders are extremely respectful to the cowshed couple."
"The higher-ups have their own arrangements. How would I know? They're scientific researchers, researching advanced things for the country. Of course, we have to be respectful."
Fortunately, he has been reminding everyone not to bully the people in the bullpen, otherwise, if they are rehabilitated, how can they be let off?
For someone of his status, revenge is as easy as crushing an ant.
"Wait, what did that guy from the bullpen say before he left? He said he'd write a letter to Shu Yu after everything was settled? When did you get to know them, Shu Yu?"
Shen Shuyu didn't tell everyone that they were grandpa and grandma, she just said that they had helped Taotao before.
Shen Xue knew that the people from the bullpen had been rehabilitated and that the two were still important figures. She began to regret why she had not established any relationship with them before.
"Jingchen, if we can establish a relationship with the people in the bullpen, and they are rehabilitated and return to the city, we can also benefit from it.
Why didn't you see the difference between them? What a great opportunity."
How could they not be grateful to them if they helped the couple in their most difficult times?
Maybe he could even take them back to the city and arrange decent jobs for them. The more Shen Xue thought about it, the more annoyed she became.
Zhou Jingchen lay still on the kang. "They were sent down to the countryside. When I passed by the cowshed, you dragged me the other way, saying they were unlucky and that getting involved with them would bring bad luck. How could you expect me to have anything to do with them?"
Although Zhou Jingchen thought so at the time, he would not say it out loud. It was all Shen Xue's fault. If Shen Xue had not said that before, he would definitely be able to establish a relationship with the people in the bullpen.
"If you tell me that their identities are not simple, can I still stop you?"
Zhou Jingchen retorted to her, "The identities of those who were demoted are not simple, and you just found out about it?"
Shen Xue choked. People with simple identities had no chance of being demoted. She just didn't expect that they could be rehabilitated.
It’s too late to say anything now. Everyone is gone and they can’t even try to establish a relationship with them.
"Jingchen, you said that the people in the cowshed can be rehabilitated. Can you, the educated youth who went to the countryside, also return to the city?"
Zhou Jingchen felt that this was really possible. These educated youth who went to the countryside couldn't stay there for the rest of their lives.
"Maybe we can go back to the city, we have to wait."
Feeling that there was a chance to return to the city, Zhou Jingchen had a smile on his face. But when he thought about his parents breaking off relations with him, Zhou Jingchen's face turned from sunny to cloudy.
"What's the point of going back to the city? My parents have disowned me because of you. I don't even have a place to live if I go back. I might as well stay in the countryside."
At least he has a place to live in the countryside, but he has no place to live in Kyoto. He is worse than a street urchin and can't even sleep under a bridge.
Shen Xue's face froze. "Jing Chen, are you blaming me? If I didn't love you so much and wanted to vent my anger on you, I wouldn't keep asking your parents for money. Do you think I'm after your family's money? I'm after you as a person.
Your parents are partial to you and don't care about you. You don't know how much I love you. I have been asking them for money because I want them to pay more attention to you and care about you more. Who knew that they would break off relations with you for money?
Jingchen, your parents are too cruel. When you become rich, you must ignore them and let them cry and regret. "
