Chapter 287: New brain is flexible

Meng Jiusi also knew about the telegram. He frowned. "Don't tell Zhao Zhao. Zhao Zhao catching the person is already a great merit, she has no obligation to interrogate them."

Black-hearted human traffickers, who knows what conspiracies they have?

His sister is such a weak little girl, helping to catch the person is already very good, why are they so good at pushing their luck? That person making such an unreasonable request must have bad intentions!

Can't agree.

Gu Chenghuai nodded and hummed. "I didn't plan to tell her."

He didn't plan to let go of the person who hurt his wife either.

Put this matter aside for now, no rush, letting Zhao Zhao have a good time in the military region for the next month or so is the priority.

Meng Jiusi handed the breakfast he bought to his brother-in-law. "I bought breakfast, you take it back. About the matter you just mentioned... I will keep an eye on it, you don't worry about it for now."

The fourth brother-in-law is reliable, Gu Chenghuai is very at ease. "Alright, sorry to trouble Fourth Brother. When Zhao Zhao takes Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao back to their hometown, I will go there myself."

Meng Jiusi nodded with satisfaction.

Waved to his brother-in-law.

"Leaving."

Gu Chenghuai watched him go, carrying the bulging cloth bag, and walked in the opposite direction.

After walking for a few minutes, before reaching the Ning family, he saw the twins and Mao Dan holding hands from afar.

His two good sons were yawning, walking very slowly, with tufts of hair sticking up on their heads, looking dazed.

"Ahem..." Gu Chenghuai cleared his throat to remind the two cubs who were drooping their heads.

The little brothers tilted their heads to look over, caught a glimpse of their father, their eyes brightened slightly, and they ran toward him.

"Dad!"

"Dad!!!"

Gu Chenghuai pressed down the tuft of hair on Gu Hangbao's crown, narrowed his deep black eyes. "Didn't sleep well last night?"

The smile on Xiang Yubao's small face faded a bit, his eyes flickered, he looked at his fingers, and didn't dare to look at his dad.

"... Stayed up a little late!" Gu Hangbao compared his thumb and little finger together, grinning, trying to muddle through.

Gu Chenghuai said lightly: "Go back and tell your mom."

Gu Hangbao grabbed his hem, twisting his body. "Dad~~~"

Trying to awaken fatherly love.

Gu Chenghuai pretended to ignore him and walked forward.

His steps weren't very big, just right for the children to keep up.

"Dad, love me one more time!" Gu Hangbao chased after him, saying meatily.

His dad's mouth twitched.

Looking down at him.

It's really enough.

Fortunately, he looks okay, otherwise he would definitely be linked to greasy.

"Shut up."

Gu Hangbao pinched his small mouth, tugged on his dad's hem, and followed Gu Chenghuai obediently.

Passing the small building where the Lu family lived, they happened to meet Lu Baozhen who was going downstairs to dump trash.

"Xiang Yubao?"

"Gu Hangbao?!!"

Lu Baozhen rubbed her eyes. The twins were still there, she didn't see wrong, they came to follow the army!

Mao Dan's brows didn't leave a trace, he just pretended not to see her, and said to Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao: "Let's go, don't let Aunt Lin wait too long."

Xiang Yubao withdrew his gaze. "Let's go!"

Gu Chenghuai never managed the eyebrow-and-eye official business between children, letting them handle it themselves.

Fearing the breakfast would get cold, his steps didn't stop.

The twins paused for twenty seconds and fell behind their father by dozens of meters. The brothers hurriedly came back to their senses, pulled Mao Dan, and chased after them at a small run.

Seeing this, Lu Baozhen stood in place, her expression a bit hurt, and after hesitating for a few seconds, she chased after them.

Mao Dan noticed her figure, and his face tightened even more. "Lu Baozhen is following behind us."

Xiang Yubao turned his head, and sure enough, he saw her.

Seeing them stop, Lu Baozhen also stopped. Her yellow and thin small face was timid, she gave a fawning smile to the few, didn't come forward, and didn't leave.

"Why are you following us?" Gu Hangbao, who had a long mouth, questioned seriously.

Lu Baozhen moved slowly. "I, I want to play with you."

"We don't want to play with you!" Gu Hangbao refused mercilessly.

Lu Baozhen didn't have a good time in the military region. Her grandma was a polar extreme, fighting with people every day, and her stepmother didn't care about her. The clothes she wore hadn't been washed for two months, her sleeves were black and shiny, and there were always two snot trails under her nose, which she wiped off with her sleeves when they fell, as dirty as could be.

Not to mention the twins, Mao Dan also felt disgusted.

Lu Baozhen said aggrievedly: "We are from the same brigade, why don't you take me?"

"..." Xiang Yubao felt her words were very unreasonable. "We didn't play together when we were in the brigade, why would you think... we would play with you when we came to the military region?"

Gu Hangbao hugged his chest. "You love to cry and love to bite, we don't want to play with you."

Lu Baozhen's face appeared embarrassed, and she explained with a red face, "I don't love to cry anymore, and I don't bite anymore, can you play with me?"

She looked at Xiang Yubao and the others expectantly.

If she could be taken to play by Mao Dan brother, her stepmother wouldn't hit her, and her dad would also praise her.

Don't look at Lu Baozhen being young, she had quite a few little thoughts, knowing that having a good relationship with Mao Dan could lead to the good days of the past.

Lu Baozhen was young and didn't know how to hide her emotions, and she was as easy to understand as a blank sheet of paper in front of Mao Dan.

The little boy pursed his lips and didn't speak.

But his impression of Lu Baozhen fell again and again in his heart, hitting the bottom.

He was afraid that Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao would agree. The relationship between friends is equal, and he couldn't let his friends not listen to Lu Baozhen's ghost talk and stay far away from them, worrying until his brows were knotted.

"No!" Gu Hangbao refused flatly. "It's best to be like in the brigade, each plays their own, you walk your mud road, we walk our stone road!"

Mao Dan's tense little face relaxed.

It was also a relief.

After refusing cleanly, Gu Hangbao caught a glimpse of his dad running out of sight, and almost jumped up.

"Dad didn't wait for us again!"

After speaking, he pulled his brother and Mao Dan, and chased after them at lightning speed.

Fearing being caught up by Lu Baozhen, he ran at his fastest speed in his life.

Lu Baozhen was stunned, but didn't give up, following in a hurry.

She didn't have enough to eat in the Lu family, her hands and feet had no strength, naturally she couldn't catch up with the three boys who were like little calves.

"Hahahaha..." Mao Dan rarely had such a disheveled time. After stopping at the Gu family, he supported his knees with both hands and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The twins also giggled.

"Mao Dan, are you afraid of Lu Baozhen?" Xiang Yubao used the method his dad said to adjust his breathing, turned his head to look at his good friend, and asked.

"Not afraid." Mao Dan said, how could he be afraid of a girl.

"I'm afraid of trouble."

Thinking of how Lu Baozhen clung to him before, always following behind him, many people in the family quarters teased him, saying that he found himself a child bride at a young age... Mao Dan's face turned black.

He knew what a child bride was, he was the son of a combat hero, standing upright, he didn't want a child bride, these were all bad existences, should be shattered!

"Lu Baozhen is very clingy, scolding her is useless. If she follows you old, you must run away quickly, otherwise you will be said ugly things." Based on Mao Dan's understanding of Lu Baozhen, she wouldn't give up so easily, so he gave Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao a vaccination beforehand.

"Say what ugly things?" Xiang Yubao opened his pitch-black eyes wide.

Mao Dan couldn't say it.

So silence.

Gu Hangbao was annoying, twisting his body. "What ugly things, I want to know, say it..."

He had a strong curiosity, and felt uncomfortable all over if he didn't ask.

Mao Dan sighed and said vaguely: "What else can be said, say child bride..."

Child bride? The twins all knew, and people in the Harvest Brigade also teased them and Lu Baozhen.

The brothers frowned.

Had a feeling of sympathy.

"Adults are really annoying! All like to tease children!!" Xiang Yubao said with a stern face, muttering with dissatisfaction.

Mao Dan nodded in agreement. "Right, my grandma said some adults have no boundaries, always love to manage other people's business, really annoying!"

"That is! Really annoying!" Gu Hangbao put his hands on his hips. "Whoever dares to say that to me, I will... report to the public security!"

Xiang Yubao nodded. "Right, report to the public security!"

Mom used this trick to scare people in the village before, they could too.

Two six-year-old children, just at the age of being reckless, fearless, and having no fear of the public security, saying so, and thinking so!

Mao Dan gave encouragement. "This is a good way!"

Adults are afraid of the public security, saying so can control adults.

The conversation of the three little boys was all heard by Lin Zhao.

Her brows curved downward, and her eyes were filled with smiles.

The new brain that hasn't been used for a few years is really flexible!

"Ahem..." Lin Zhao coughed lightly, interrupting Xiang Yubao and the others' words.

"Mom!" Xiang Yubao rushed over, wanting to hug his mom, he hadn't seen his mom for a whole night!

Before he could hug her, he was grabbed by the collar by Gu Chenghuai and placed to the side.

"How old are you, don't pounce on my wife."

Xiang Yubao glanced at his dad, his expression complex beyond words.

The child was used to his father's double standards and didn't argue with him, withdrew his gaze, and stood obediently in front of Lin Zhao, his expression concerned.

"Mom, did you change the medicine for your arm?"

Lin Zhao felt warm in her heart. "Changed it, did you and your brother sleep well last night?"

"Good, good." Gu Hangbao interrupted. "Mao Dan's room is so big, so bright, and the bed is so big, you can see the stars lying on it, very comfortable!"

The family quarters' gazes glanced at the Gu family.

Lin Zhao beckoned to the children and returned to the courtyard to talk.

Mao Dan didn't go in, said a word to Aunt Lin, and returned to his own home.

He mainly came to send Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao home, the twins just arrived, he was afraid they wouldn't know the way.

The aunt hired by the Ning family made breakfast, the Ning family kept Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao to eat together, they didn't want to eat without washing their faces and brushing their teeth, crying to go home, Mao Dan took the initiative to send the twins back.

Harvest Brigade.

Gu Mu calculated the time in her heart. "Third daughter-in-law has been gone for several days, she should have arrived at the military region, why is there still no news? Nothing happened, right?"

"Third daughter-in-law is lively and clever, there are train police on the train, what could happen, you are just worrying blindly!" Gu Fu scolded.

Saying his old wife was harsh, he was also worried himself, especially these two nights, lying on the bed like a pancake, tossing and turning.

"Heh."

Gu Mu rolled her eyes at him and let out a cold sneer.

"I'm worrying blindly? Only you can! If you can, don't be a pancake at night!!"

The dead old man's words are just unpleasant.

Gu Fu was speechless, angry and turned his back, puffing on a cigarette, white smoke rising, blurring his face that had suffered the vicissitudes of life.

"Puff, puff, puff, if you want to puff, go to the threshing floor to puff, don't puff at home, if you smoke my grandson and granddaughter, I'll make you look good!" Gu Mu's eyes were fierce.

Gu Fu was choked by the smoke, turned his head to look at his wife, only feeling that she was unreasonable!

He didn't puff in the room, didn't even have the freedom to puff in the courtyard!?

Too much.

Who knows what she will dislike about him next?

The old man went out to stroll angrily, not daring to be annoying again.

Gu Chan brought a catty of meat back to her mother's house, pushed the bicycle into the courtyard, and saw her mother's brows tightly locked. "Mom, what's wrong with you, who made you angry?"

Seeing her filial and sensible eldest daughter, Gu Mu's face improved.

"Who else could it be, your dad, that old man... his words are getting more and more unpleasant!" She complained.

Gu Chan leaned the bicycle against the corner of the wall and handed the meat to her mother. "My dad has always been like that, it's not like you just found out, why bother with this anger."

Gu Mu was speechless for a moment.

Can't talk to these rationalists.

She changed the topic. "Third daughter-in-law has been out for so long and there's no news, I don't know if they arrived at Chenghuai's place, and I don't know if Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao are used to it..."

"Zhao Zhao and Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao arrived at the military region, Chenghuai sent a telegram." Gu Chan saw her mother was very anxious and hurriedly said, "I saw the telegram when I went to mail a letter to Zhao Zhao, and brought it back by the way."

The twins were still young, she couldn't rest assured, and she had been returning to her mother's house very diligently during this time.

Lin Zhao left the bicycle for her, and it was very convenient to come back.

"Chenghuai sent a telegram? Where is it?!!" Gu Mu turned her head and asked.

Gu Chan was washing her hands and signaled her. "It's in my pocket, Mom, take it out yourself."

Gu Mu decisively took action, touched a piece of paper, and looked at it quickly.

As mentioned before, she had learned characters from Gu Fu, although not many, she recognized all the common characters.

Looking at the two characters "arrived" over and over again, a smile appeared on Gu Mu's face.

"It's good that they arrived safely, I was just afraid that your sister-in-law and Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao would have some mistakes on the road."

Finally, I can sleep soundly!

Gu Chan sat down, hammered her legs, and said: "Zhao Zhao is smart and cautious, she definitely won't have any problems, Mom, you are worrying too much."

Finding that she didn't see Qian Bao and Seeing Yaobao, she asked: "Where are Qian Bao and Seeing Yaobao?"

Gu Mu answered, "Qian Bao went out to dig wild vegetables with Tie Dan and the others, Seeing Yaobao is sleeping in the room."

Without her saying much, Gu Chan guessed some situations. "Seeing Yaobao wanted Mom again last night?"

"Yes, crying non-stop." Gu Mu's eyes flashed with heartache. "She is only that big, missing her mom, it's normal."

What's not normal is that she has been missing her for a long time.

A milk baby that big should have a big forgetfulness, unlike her granddaughter... her memory is so good, crying for her mom every day.

"I'll go take a look." Gu Chan walked toward her parents' room.

Seeing Yaobao just woke up, sat up slowly, rubbed her eyes with her fleshy little hands, and shouted "Mom" in a milky voice, her small mouth pouting and about to cry.

"Seeing Yaobao is awake." Gu Chan said softly, her voice especially gentle.

Seeing Seeing Yaobao's eyes slightly swollen, the aunt felt heartache.

"Are your eyes uncomfortable? Aunt will take you to wash your face, and I'll boil an egg for you to roll later."

Gu Chan dressed the little niece, combed her hair, used the hair clip the little girl liked most, and praised her niece again and again.

"Whose little girl is this, so beautiful."

Seeing Yaobao hugged her aunt's neck, leaned her head on Gu Chan's shoulder, and didn't cry anymore.

Gu Chan didn't dare to mention Zhao Zhao, fearing that her niece would remember and cry again, hugged Seeing Yaobao out of the room, and asked with a smile: "Hungry? Aunt will make you milk powder."

Seeing Yaobao said crisply: "Want to wash face."

Gu Mu clamped her voice and praised, "Good, good, good, wash face for our Seeing Yaobao, our Seeing Yaobao loves cleanliness most!"

The little dumpling felt beautiful inside from the praise. ===== CHAPTER 288 =====
