The water boiled, and Shen Shuyu poked her head out from the kitchen. "It's time to eat."

There were no mandarin duck pots for sale, so Shen Shuyu drew a blueprint and asked Gu Jiandong to find a blacksmith to make a mandarin duck pot according to the blueprint.

This mandarin duck pot is really well made, it's only the work of a skilled craftsman. Shen Shuyu was very satisfied when she got the pot back.

The hot pot was eaten in the kitchen, which was not very big. It was just right for seven people and a dog to sit around the hot pot and eat.

Xiaoze took a bite of meat and a bite of vegetables, squinting his eyes happily, "Mom and Dad, it's delicious. Xiaoze wants to eat it again tomorrow."

"Then we'll have hot pot tomorrow."

In winter, it is comfortable to gather around the pot to cook food. You can cook whatever you want without worrying about the food getting cold.

Shen Shuyu and Shen Qiu were about to take the college entrance examination, and both families had been nervous for a while. Now that the exam was over, they all relaxed and enjoyed this delicious hotpot.

"Shu Yu, I have a vacation this year. In a couple of days, you and I will go visit grandpa and grandma. We will stay with them for two days before returning to Shenjiaba Brigade."

Shen Shuyu asked her parents-in-law, "Mom and Dad, will you go back to Shenjiaba Brigade with us for the New Year this year?"

"I can't go. Your father and I have to go back to the Northwest tomorrow." Their daughter-in-law was taking the college entrance examination, so they took some time off to come and help the child. They couldn't stay for long.

"When we have time, we will definitely go to Shenjiaba Brigade."

Gu Changfeng and Su Yueru boarded the train, and Gu Jiandong and Shu Yu went home to pack up and also boarded the train.

After the Yang family was rehabilitated, Yang Cheng and Luo Yulan returned home immediately. The conditions in the Northwest were difficult, so the first thing they did when they returned was to find a doctor to regulate their health.

Yang Zhen and Liang Jun cried for two days and two nights when they saw their son and daughter-in-law's emaciated state.

After a period of recuperation, Liang Jun ate well and gained some weight, and then he finally had a smile on his face. Otherwise, he would always want to cry uncontrollably when he saw his son and daughter-in-law.

Before coming here, Shen Shuyu sent a telegram in advance, and Yang Cheng drove a car to the station to pick her up.

Nowadays, it takes more than just an ordinary family to own a car. When the Yang family was rehabilitated, their properties and cars were returned, including their original jobs.

Shen Shuyu had never asked her uncle and aunt what their jobs were before. It was only after she got in the car that she found out that her uncle worked in the Education Bureau.

My aunt used to be the principal of a high school. When college starts, she will be transferred to a university as vice principal. I don’t know which school it will be yet.

The car drove for more than an hour and stopped in front of a courtyard house. Yang Zhen, Liang Jun, Luo Yulan and Taotao had been waiting at the door. When they saw the car coming back, the smiles on their faces became even brighter.

Shen Shuyu and Gu Jiandong got out of the car and said in unison, "Grandpa, Grandma."

The couple thought they had kept the secret well, but they didn't expect that their granddaughter had already known who they were. They only found out after their son and daughter-in-law came back and told them.

When they heard their child call them grandpa and grandma for the first time, tears welled up in the couple's eyes. "Hey, go in and tell them, go in and tell them, your aunt has made a lot of delicious food."

Luo Yulan smiled and pulled Xiaoze's hand, "Xiaoze, your aunt bought you a lot of toys. Let's go in and play with them, okay?"

"Okay, thank you, aunt."

Yang Zhen, Liang Jun and others lived in the East Courtyard, and they only stopped there after bringing Shen Shuyu and others to the East Courtyard.

Luo Yulan went straight into the kitchen. "Shu Yu, Jian Dong, you sit down first. I'll go in and bring out the dishes."

They had their meal in the side hall. Yang Cheng and Luo Yulan walked around twice with the tray before they brought out all the dishes.

"Come, come, sit down and eat. It's time to eat. Shuyu, Jiandong, your aunt is a good cook. She made all this. Try it and see if it suits your taste."

Knowing that their granddaughter and granddaughter were coming, the Yang family was very happy. They bought groceries early and came back. While Luo Yulan was cooking, they helped her.

"My aunt's cooking is so delicious, you can tell it's delicious just by looking at it."

Shen Shuyu tasted the fish and her eyes lit up. "It's delicious, the fish meat is tender."

Luo Yulan was very happy to see her like this. She wanted to make some decent meal to entertain her niece and nephew-in-law in the Northwest, but she had no ingredients.

Now that she has been rehabilitated and has the conditions, Luo Yulan was worried that her niece would not like the food she cooked. Now she doesn't have to worry anymore, because Shu Yu likes all the dishes she cooks.

"Eat more, these are all your favorite dishes."

"Come, Xiaoze, eat a leg. The leg is all yours."

Xiaoze's mouth was filled with meat. The little guy ate it with great relish. He gave a thumbs up from time to time and said that the dish was delicious, which made Yang Zhen and the others laugh.

There are many good wines at home, which are not available outside. Yang Cheng took out two bottles and said, "Jiandong, let's drink some today."

Yang Zhen couldn't drink alcohol, so he drank tea instead. He sat next to them and clinked bowls with them from time to time, and the dinner table was full of joy.

"Shu Yu, which university do you plan to apply to?" Liang Jun was not worried that his granddaughter would fail the entrance exam because she was smart.

"I plan to apply to the university near the army. That way, if I don't have classes, I can go back to the army anytime to see Gu Jiandong and Xiaoze. If Gu Jiandong is free, he can also bring Xiaoze to see me at school anytime."

Shen Shuyu did not plan to apply to a school that was too far away. Her first choice was a school that was close to the army.

"That's fine. This way, you three can meet up anytime. Now that we're back, if you need any help, just let us know."

"Got it, grandma. We won't be polite with you. You are my big backers now. I am counting on you to let me bully others."

Yang Zhen and Liang Jun both laughed. Although they didn't have any great abilities, they were able to protect their granddaughter's family.

Aren’t they working so hard just to give their descendants a better life?

After dinner, Yang Zhen called his granddaughter into the study and asked about the boxes he had asked her to move. "Shu Yu, where did you hide those boxes? Grandpa will go get them."
