Chapter 374 Arrival
Chapter 374 Arrival
"What a huge wheat field! It's so beautiful." Jiang Yafei sat up straight and looked out the window in admiration.
"I want to go down and harvest the wheat." Yafei turned around and said to Jiang Defu beside her.
The seats in the car were arranged like this: Gu Yu was the driver, and Song Yunping sat in the passenger seat.
Of the three people in the back row, Jiang Yafei is the youngest and smallest, so she must sit in the middle.
However, the rear space of the Crown VII is large and you won’t feel crowded.
"That's easy. When you get back home, there will be plenty of wheat for you to harvest."
Jiang Defu has had a smile on his face since he got on the bus, and everyone in the car can feel his good mood.
"I want to cut it, too." Anjie also joined in the fun.
"Okay, you all go down and harvest the wheat." Jiang Defu said with a smile.
"Then what are you doing?" Jiang Yafei asked.
"Me? I'll move a chair and sit on the ground and watch you cut the grass. You are not allowed to be lazy." Jiang Defu raised his eyebrows.
"Dad, didn't you get it wrong that men farm and women weave?" After hearing this, Gu Yu, who was in the driver's seat, glanced in the rearview mirror and said with a smile.
"He is not a man farming and woman weaving, he is a rich landlord!" Yafei rushed to criticize.
"Why do rich landlords still have to sit on the fields? That's all done by lackeys!" Anjie added, and the mother and daughter sang in unison.
Hearing this, Jiang Defu smiled indifferently and looked at the scenery outside the window, his hometown getting closer and closer.
Song Yunping opened the teacup, handed it to Gu Yu and asked him to take a sip. Then she took out the washed and cut apples and fed them to him with a toothpick.
"Sister-in-law, you spoil him too much. He has no hands himself."
Yafei added fuel to the fire, but Song Yunping just smiled and said nothing.
"Your brother is driving. Really, if you were half as gentle as Pingping, you wouldn't have to worry about no one marrying you." Anjie shook his head.
"Tsk, there are so many people chasing after me, but I don't like any of them!" Yafei looked up and said with disdain.
"That's because others don't know your true situation and are deceived by your appearance," Gu Yu also retorted.
Jiang Yafei couldn't help but retort when she heard Gu Yu saying bad things about her.
"Look, look, we've reached my hometown, we're here!" Jiang Defu said excitedly, pointing outside the window.
"Dad, don't get excited. Your blood pressure is rising again." Jiang Yafei touched Jiang Defu's heartbeat and joked.
Jiang Defu rolled his eyes at her and ignored her. He looked out the window, feeling the changes in his hometown and looking for familiar impressions.
"My hometown is still the best." Jiang Defu sighed.
"Mom, what do you think?" Jiang Yafei rolled her eyes and turned to ask An Jie.
"It's better than I thought." Anjie also rolled his eyes at her.
"So what do you imagine my hometown to be like?" Jiang Defu asked dissatisfiedly.
"Of course it's the place with poor mountains and bad water that produces unruly people." Jiang Yafei proudly said what she had just thought of.
"Don't talk nonsense!" An Jie slapped her in dissatisfaction, and Jiang Defu snorted angrily.
"Yafei, you haven't stopped talking all the way here. If you make my parents unhappy again, be careful that they will make me abandon you on the road."
Gu Yu was helpless about his sister's bad character and threatened her.
"Yes! Throw her down and let her run behind the car!" Jiang Defu agreed loudly.
"Why are you like this? You can't take a joke, sister-in-law. Look at him. He bullies me every day."
Yafei pouted and said dissatisfiedly, then started to act coquettishly towards Song Yunping.
"Yafei is just joking, don't scare her. Yafei, come and have an apple." Song Yunping said softly to Gu Yu.
Then he smiled and turned sideways, handing Jiang Yafei a piece of apple.
"Uncle, aunt, you guys should have a piece too. This apple has a candied core and is very sweet."
"Sister-in-law is still good to me~" Yafei narrowed her eyes and smiled.
First he helped Jiang Defu and An Jie pass it to him, then he took a piece and started eating it.
Although Jiang Yafei was joking, there is actually some truth in this.
It was not only because of those poor relatives from Jiang Defu's hometown who had come to the island before,
This place used to be part of the old revolutionary base of Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan. It was a place of sparks back then, and most of the people there lived in hardship.
It is precisely because of this that the revolutionary enthusiasm in these areas has been high, and batches of predecessors such as Gu Gang and Jiang Defu have come out from here.
For the sake of my hometown and for the Chinese people to no longer suffer from hunger, I sacrificed my life and shed my blood.
Nowadays, Jiang Defu can’t even eat sweet potatoes.
The family was talking and laughing, and soon the car arrived at the Shixia Village bus stop.
"Dad, what should we do next?"
Gu Yu stopped the car on the side of the road and asked a local named Jiang Defu.
"This... this really makes me confused."
Jiang Defu stuck his head out, frowned, looked left and right, and for a moment he couldn't figure out the way to his village.
"Then let's go to Wei Min first. He should be more familiar with this place." Gu Yu suggested.
"Old comrade, this is really wrong of you. Why are you still confused in your hometown?" Jiang Yafei also looked out the window and said nonchalantly,
"Why are you so talkative, kid? You're so annoying!" An Jie slapped Jiang Yafei again, this time with a little more force.
Seeing Anjie's serious face,
"It's really annoying." Jiang Defu also said and glared at Jiang Yafei.
Jiang Yafei immediately calmed down upon seeing this and became well behaved.
She is very good at observing people's expressions, otherwise she would have been beaten many times for her quick words that often flow without thinking.
"Let's go to Wei Min first, and then let him take us to the village."
Jiang Defu sighed. Yafei's words just now hurt his heart a little. He didn't even recognize his hometown.
But he no longer insisted and said something to Gu Yu.
"Okay, it's a good opportunity to take a look at Wei Min's working environment. I haven't seen him for more than half a year." Gu Yu agreed.
But speaking of it, the family subconsciously forgot that Wei Min was working in Jiang Defu's hometown.
As the fifth child in the family, my brothers are all quite outstanding, and I have a younger sister who is not with my parents, so my sense of existence is a bit low.
Gu Yu drove to the Red Star Stone Factory and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It seemed that he had not prepared anything for Wei Min.
"There were a lot of cigarettes, alcohol, tea, and cakes and gifts in the trunk of the car.
You also prepared a Hero pen and a Walkman, don’t forget to give them to Wei Min later.” Song Yunping said softly.
Gu Yu looked into Song Yunping's eyes and felt warm in his heart. Those things were actually meant for her parents and Song Yunhui.
"Xiao Yu, why did you prepare so many things? This kid doesn't take good care of things, so don't buy him such expensive things." An Jie frowned and said after hearing this.
"A Walkman?! It's a small portable recorder that plays tapes and has headphones on. Brother, I want one! I want one too!"
When Jiang Yafei heard the word "Walkman", she stopped pretending to be well-behaved in front of her parents and excitedly patted Gu Yu's driver's seat.
