In the reborn era, the lucky bag is enjoying the show in the factory area.

Aunt Xi, hands on her hips, started cursing, "Get lost! So what if I'm biased? You've been by my side for so many years. I've taken care of you three so much over the years. It's your brother's turn now."

Get lost, go cry somewhere else, I don't need you anymore.

"Jing Tian, ​​Jing Tian, ​​come out! Your second brother is back!"

Guan Jingtian, Guan Daqiang, and Qiu Ling were not at work today; they had already taken leave. Upon hearing Aunt Xi's shouts, they rushed out.

Guan Jingtian saw the joy on Xi Nanzheng's face and quickly went to help him up. "Nanzheng, you're finally back. Come on, let me carry you down, let's go home."

The moment he said "I'm going home," Xi Nanzheng's eyes welled up with tears. He put his arm around Guan Jingtian's back and said, "Brother, it's been a long time."

After speaking, Xi Nanzheng looked at his aunt, who had been standing helplessly to the side, and asked, "Aunt, it's been more than ten years since we last saw each other, hasn't it? How are you?"

Upon hearing Xi Nanzheng greet her, Aunt Xi couldn't hold back and burst into tears. She patted Xi Nanzheng's back and cried, "Nanzheng, I'm so sorry to you three. Back then... I was so foolish back then and hurt you all!"

Xi Nanzheng smiled gently, "Aunt, we're family, let's not talk about the past. I'm relieved that you're living a good life now."

With a swift movement, Guan Jingtian hoisted Xi Nanzheng onto his back. "Let's not talk about it now, it's cold outside, let's go home and talk."

Guan Jingtian carried Xi Nanzheng back to the Guan family home, and Luo Yu followed them in carrying Yuanyuan. Xi Beizhan instructed the four young soldiers to unload the things from the car and deliver them all to his home before leading the four young soldiers back to the next house.

When Guan Daqiang saw that his son had carried Xi Nanzheng in, he quickly made room for Xi Nanzheng at the head of the kang (heated brick bed) and had Guan Jingtian tuck Xi Nanzheng into the quilt.

"How are you? Is your injury getting any better?"

Guan Daqiang looked at Xi Nanzheng with concern, and touched Xi Nanzheng's hands and feet. Seeing that his limbs were fine, he then looked at his chest.

Xi Nanzheng smiled and said, "Second Uncle, I'm fine. It was just quite dangerous at the time, but I'm all better now. I'll be able to go back to work after a little more rest."

Aunt Xi followed her in, and when she heard that Xi Nanzheng was going to work, she immediately put on a stern face. "What work? Stay home and rest. If you want to go to work, you have to go to the hospital in the spring. The doctor said you can only go to work when you are fully recovered."

By the way, did the military assign you a job? You've been discharged; did your superiors object?

Xi Nanzheng shook his head. "I have to step down. I was seriously injured this time and I'm no longer fit to stay in the army. I can't hold onto my position just because of some merit. I have to give others a chance."

I've thought it over and over, and I've decided to step down and go home to reunite with you all.

Aunt Xi sat next to Xi Nanzheng, holding his hand tightly. After listening to his words, she said, "You're right to think this way. You've been in the army for so many years and made so many contributions. You've already lived up to the country and the Party's expectations. From now on, just live life to the fullest and stop thinking about others."

Guan Daqiang nodded in agreement, "Your aunt is right. Think more about yourself. You're not getting any younger, it's time to get married."

Look at Bei Zhan, they've been married for five years, and their child is already so big. You can't let him drift too far away.

Xi Nanzheng nodded, "I know, I'll ask my aunts to help me find some good girls to introduce me to."

Aunt Xi slapped her thigh and laughed, "You should leave this to your sister-in-law. Our Xiao Luo has been organizing matchmaking events for five years now. How many couples have they formed? And believe it or not, I've never heard of anyone who met and married through these events having a bad life. It seems like they're all doing quite well."

When it comes to this, Luo Yu is the most qualified to speak on the matter.

“My second aunt is right. Our Women’s Federation keeps records of people who met and got married through the social association. Every year, these couples must come to the Wulong Mine Women’s Federation to report on their recent situation. We are not afraid of anything else, but we are afraid that the couples will quarrel and want to get a divorce over trivial matters, regret their marriage, and damage the reputation of the social association and Wulong Mine.”

This was something Luo Yu came up with after giving birth. On the surface, it sounded nice, but in reality, Luo Yu was afraid that those women might suffer injustices in their marriages but not speak up. That's why she made these women come to Wulong Mine once a year to ask about the situation, so that they wouldn't have to come looking for them when things got really bad, and it would save them from having to run away.

Xi Nanzheng looked at Luo Yu.

"Xiao Luo is really good. It's a blessing for the Xi family that Bei Zhan was able to marry her."

Xi Nanzheng had also found out about Luo Yu's situation, and to be honest, he felt that his younger brother was not good enough for her.

From publishing books and calling for donations to organizing social events, literacy classes, and study classes, each of these achievements is a great accomplishment. There's also the now-popular "flipping the card" game. I've heard that whenever there's a large event, factories, mines, schools, and other organizations are all working like crazy, competing to flip the card. So they even created an award specifically for organizations that do a good job of flipping the card.

While it's not fair to say that everyone in the city knows Luo Yu, at least leaders at all levels know her, and she's even registered in the province and Beijing.

This time it was just a short trip, they were in a hurry to come back, otherwise a leader would definitely have approached Luo Yu to ask about her recent situation or something.

Aunt Xi smiled and looked at Luo Yu, "I told you, our Xi family must be incredibly lucky to have such a wonderful daughter-in-law. With Luo Yu by our side, our Bei Zhan family will be happy for the rest of our lives."

After saying that, Aunt Xi glared at Xi Beizhan.

Xi Beizhan, who was standing guard at the door, glanced innocently at Luo Yu.

Luo Yu smiled without saying anything, then looked down and touched Yuan Yuan's forehead. Finding that she wasn't sweating, he felt relieved.

Yuanyuan fell asleep as soon as they entered the city, and has been sleeping for almost an hour now, currently sleeping next to Xi Nanzheng.

Xi Nanzheng glanced down at the little girl and said, "Let her sleep. Don't disturb her."

Guan Daqiang's attention had already been focused on Yuanyuan. Hearing Xi Nanzheng say this, he quickly nodded, "That's right, let her sleep. Children can only grow taller by sleeping. None of you should touch her."

After saying that, she was still worried and turned to look at Guan Jingtian, "Where's Guoqing? Tell him to stay in your room and not come over yet, lest he wake up his sister."

Guan Jingtian was already used to the old man preferring Yuanyuan, so he nodded and said, "He's asleep too, Qiu Ling is watching over him."

Aunt Xi looked back and said, "I was wondering why I didn't see Qiu Ling."

Xiao Guoqing is a restless sleeper; he can roll from one end of the kang (a heated brick bed) to the other. It's normal for the couple to wake up with their son sleeping head down; they consider it a relief if he doesn't fall to the ground.

The group chatted amicably for a while, and then Aunt Xi and Aunt Xi's second aunt busied themselves with preparing the meal. After the meal, Xi Beizhan carried Xi Nanzheng back to his own home.

The gatekeeper had already heated the kang (a heated brick bed), and it was quite warm. He tucked Xi Nanzheng back into the quilt before Luo Yu went to arrange things for the four young soldiers.
