Chapter 154 Going to Stay at His House
However, Xie Huaiqian did notice the subtle changes in the expressions of his elders when Xie Yicheng said he wanted to sell his job and go with their Shushu.
It's easy to imagine that Xie Yicheng's ideas were not fully accepted by his family.
This is a potential problem.
Through Yun Shu's letter and her phone call with Wang Min, the couple were aware of Xie Yicheng's relationship with the brigade leader's family. They weren't parents, but there was kinship and gratitude between them.
However, Xie Huaiqian did not point this out directly, as it was still too early. He wanted to wait a few more days and see how things went.
……
After dinner, Wang Min asked Xie Huaiqian and his wife about their accommodation arrangements. Of course, they could vacate a room for Xie Huaiqian and his wife, but firstly, the couple wanted to see where their daughter lived and her living environment nearby; secondly, staying at Wang Min's house would be somewhat inconvenient and would not align with their original purpose for coming here.
Xie Yicheng stepped forward at the opportune moment and said that he had arranged two places: a guesthouse in the city and an empty house in the brigade. So Xie Huaiqian and his wife readily agreed.
"Wouldn't it be too much trouble for me to stay in your empty house?"
What trouble? Xie Yicheng couldn't be happier!
Therefore, he repeatedly said that since he had been living at his uncle's house since his discharge from the army, it would be nice for Yun Shu's parents to stay for a couple of days to liven things up for him. How could it be a bother? Not at all!
Moreover, his home was close to the educated youth settlement, making it more convenient for Yunshu's parents to visit her. The only drawback was that it wasn't as convenient to travel as the county town, because it wasn't the beginning of spring yet and the snow hadn't melted.
Since Xie Yicheng had said so, they naturally decided to stay at Fengsheng Brigade. After all, being closer to their daughter was something the couple had no objections to.
When they returned, there were four fewer people, so the truck that Xie Yicheng had borrowed from the factory was just the right size to fit them. The bicycles and luggage were placed in the back. Xie Yicheng drove in the front, with Xie Huaiqian and the brigade leader sitting next to him. In the back were Yun Shu, Lin Huiwen and her daughter, and the brigade leader's wife.
Fortunately, the trucks at this time had three seats in the front and back, otherwise there really wouldn't have been enough room for everyone.
……
While driving, Xie Huaiqian would occasionally chat with Xie Yicheng, but not frequently; it seemed more like casual conversation, to keep him from getting distracted.
Xie Yicheng answered all questions without reservation, even revealing that he had been sent to work in the mess hall for two months because of a minor mistake he made in the army.
The brigade leader next to him was a little embarrassed, feeling that his silly son was too honest, saying everything, good or bad, which was obviously making Xie's father, a young educated youth, angry.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Xie's father didn't get angry but laughed instead, and seemed even more kind and friendly.
"It seems your boss values you a lot."
"Hey, you bet. When they went in, they chased after me and kicked me. When they came out, they were still punching me. Our boss's fists are so strong, one punch could knock me over."
"Fortunately, I also took this opportunity to learn some cooking skills from the senior cooks, and I made some delicious food to calm down."
Xie Huaiqian's parents were both in the military, so how could they not know how those senior officers showed their affection for a soldier? He was sent to work in the mess hall for two months and was eventually transferred back. It was obvious that he had made a serious mistake, but the protective leaders let him off the hook.
As for what kind of mistake it was, Xie Huaiqian didn't care, as long as it wasn't a matter of principle. Because if it were, Xie Yicheng wouldn't even have had a chance to be demobilized as a worker; he would have gone straight to a military court.
It probably just refers to things like soldiers who don't follow the usual path during exercises, or rebellious soldiers.
Thinking of this, Xie Huaiqian couldn't help but think of his eldest son, who was also in the army and had outstanding abilities and a promising future.
But according to the old man in the family, he was a troublesome soldier, and that's just how the army is; they don't want soldiers who aren't difficult to deal with!
As he thought about it, Xie Huaiqian smiled even more warmly and patted Xie Yicheng's shoulder twice.
"It seems that you and Shushu's older brother will have a lot in common."
……
Just then, the car arrived at its destination. Xie Yicheng calmly parked the car and smiled with delight upon hearing this.
"That's great! I'll really miss the army after I'm discharged. I'll have to have a good chat with my older brother then!"
"There will be a chance."
Lin Huiwen, who was helped out of the car by her daughter, replied to this, because she had also heard her husband's conversation with Xiao Xie in the car.
Compared to her more rational husband, Lin Huiwen loves and cares for all three of her children equally.
The eldest son has always been mischievous, yet he is exceptionally considerate and attentive to her and her two younger sisters. He excels academically, has many friends, and is cheerful and generous, never causing her any sadness.
The only downside is that he joined the army after graduating from high school and is currently preparing to study at a military academy, meaning he will see his wife and children less and less from now on.
But Lin Huiwen knew this was something her child would have to go through when she grew up; a fledgling eagle must leave the nest to spread its wings and soar into the sky.
This is the growth of a child, and also the mission of a soldier. She is just like all mothers, missing and worrying about her child.
Her parents served in the military their entire lives, as did she when she was young. Although she retired after getting married and having children, her son took over the baton. Therefore, Lin Huiwen has a unique perspective on soldiers that outsiders cannot imagine.
Therefore, as expected, and with some transference, she, like her husband, felt even better about Xiao Xie.
……
Trucks were still a novelty in those days, so their arrival at the brigade caused quite a stir, and the people getting off the trucks made them even more curious.
Fortunately, everyone knew that Xiao Cheng, the son of the brigade leader, worked in the county and was in charge of purchasing materials for the factory. He also had a fleet of vehicles under his command. Therefore, when the brigade leader and his wife came down with Xie Yicheng, the team members were all understanding.
However, the Yun Shu family of three who followed closely behind left the onlookers speechless.
Yun Shu and the others knew that she was a good-looking and educated educated youth who had come to the countryside. Xie Yicheng had taken the initiative to pursue her and become her girlfriend, which made the other single young men extremely jealous.
But who are the other two who look like city people? And why is Xie Zhiqing still holding that woman's arm? And why is Xie Zhiqing calling that woman "Mom"...?
"Mom?!" Good heavens, it's Xie Zhiqing's parents. Are all city people so good-looking and so young?
The onlookers whispered among themselves, but no one dared to speak up. Xie Yicheng and the captain and his wife were busy helping Xie Huaiqian and his wife settle their luggage. Yun Shu was explaining the location and environment of Fengsheng Brigade to her mother.
It wasn't until Xie Yicheng opened their courtyard gate and led the people inside that the murmurs outside suddenly grew louder.
