Chapter 1042: Chapter 1042: The Past
Wei Guangxiang couldn’t believe his ears, "I said my sister called Su Yuanyuan and told her to visit because her husband and children are back."
Wei Guangxiang was stunned for a while.
"Wei Guangxiang? Wei Guangxiang, can you hear me?"
"I hear you, are you coming over?" His heart was full of bitterness. Although he had known for a long time that there was no chance, this time his hopes were completely dashed.
"Yes, my sister called Daoist Zhan as well. I guess he’ll be coming too."
"Got it, I’m almost done here as well, I’ll be heading back too."
After they hung up, both were in a daze. They allowed themselves a moment of indulgence before pulling themselves together. They had known there was no hope; this was just closure for them. And that was fine.
Good people get good rewards; her waiting finally yielded an unexpected reward.
Wei Guangxiang also quickened his work. Actually, he knew that if he were in the Capital, he might have known earlier, but whether he found out sooner or later, it was the same. It was better to go meet them with everyone else, or he might reveal his feelings.
Zeng Hongling couldn’t stay in the factory anymore, so she rode her bike home.
Shen Yuexing watched Zeng Hongling rushing back, "What’s so urgent?"
"It’s nothing. I just need to go to the Capital. The three of us, including Yixin, are going."
"Did something happen over there?"
"No, Yuanyuan wants us to go and meet her husband and children."
Shen Yuexing had some idea, but she never asked.
The two of them talked while entering the living room. Two elders and a child were studying.
Zeng Yaozu knew about his granddaughter, "What’s going on?"
"Grandpa, Dad, I’m taking Xinyu to the Capital. Yuanyuan’s husband and children are back. She asked me to visit if I had the time."
The two elders also knew about Su Yuanyuan’s situation.
"Thank God. Xiao Su’s efforts and waiting weren’t in vain. When do you plan to leave?"
"I came back to buy train tickets. The freight train can’t accommodate us. Yixin is going too."
"If you’re all going, then the three of us will tag along. This is a great joy for Yuanyuan, and we should go and see." Zeng Zhixuan said with a smile.
"Yes, indeed, I’ll also go out and see. After all, it’s just a train ride. This is a joyous event for Xiao Su."
"Grandpa, are you up for it?"
Zeng Yaozu glared, "Why wouldn’t I be? Hurry up and get the train tickets."
Zeng Hongling had no objections, if the elders wanted to go out and see, so be it.
At the train station, they directly bought two sleeper cabins, which was convenient.
The Zeng family was increasingly well-known here. They had business dealings with the train station as well. So buying tickets was very easy.
She hurried home and saw the two elders packing luggage with Xinyu.
"When’s the train?"
"2 AM, I bought all sleeper tickets."
In the afternoon, Zeng Yixin and Yang Liulang both came back.
Knowing the train schedule, the two went back to the factory to make necessary arrangements.
In the afternoon, Zeng Hongling went to the Yang family. She found Father Yang and explained the situation.
"Dad, we’ll be gone for at least two or three months."
"Okay, go ahead. It’s fine. You should go visit. Without Xiao Su, things wouldn’t be the way they are now. By the way, I have something prepared for you to take to Xiao Su’s three kids."
Zeng Hongling didn’t refuse. It was actually pretty good. Relationships are built by walking together. It was nice that the Yang family had such a mindset.
Su Yuanyuan was still in a meeting in the afternoon, but her spirits weren’t high. Everyone was guessing what had happened to the Minister?
Ever since Minister Tan and the kids came back, Minister Su had been much more composed. So what was this about?
Everyone was cautious. But the Minister didn’t lose her temper; she was just in a bad mood. Everyone speculated if Minister Tan had upset Minister Su?
Su Yuanyuan ignored what others thought, she just couldn’t lift her spirits.
The ewe accompanied her.
Those days of hardship were really over. If I didn’t have it then, I might have suffered much more exhaustion.
Its departure is a very normal thing. Even if I hadn’t let it stay on Shushan, it would have died in the space as well.
Thinking of those times when it helped me with work, I could still talk to it when I was lonely.
Lu Chengmin had never seen Su Yuanyuan like this. This young woman was always one to repay grievances with grievances, to repay kindness with kindness, hardly ever making herself unhappy.
"What’s going on?"
"Nothing, just feeling down."
"Do you need to go back and rest?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head. There were still more than two hours left until the end of work. What would she do going back early?
She didn’t know how Qi Yan and the others were. They should still remember that sheep. When they come back, I’ll tell them the news.
In the evening, the two of them were still in the space. Now, whenever they’re back here, the life secretary must leave. Tan Shaoting didn’t like having outsiders around.
"Come on, don’t be sad." He held her as if she were a child.
"Yes, I’m really not in a good mood. If I didn’t have it back then, how much more exhausted would I have been? And you don’t know, I’m actually afraid of loneliness.
I talked to it every day. Actually, you could say that during my helpless and difficult times, it was there with me."
"Didn’t you say it before? It was already very good like this; you can be sad and upset, but don’t let it last too long."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. She knew everything. But she just couldn’t muster any enthusiasm right now.
"Yuanyuan, tell me about what happened in these five years when our father-son duo weren’t here."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "I don’t feel like talking. Let’s just stay quietly like this."
Tan Shaoting was helpless too, he couldn’t bear seeing her like this. So, holding her, he made sure she had no time to think of anything else.
The days passed by one by one, and it was soon December.
Zhao Xiaojing on the farm was painfully struggling on the kang.
She was about to give birth. The autumn harvest was over, and this year she hired people throughout, even when fulfilling tasks, she had her elder brother and Director Feng take care of it. The workers were directly sent to deliver it.
Initially, her mother wanted to move in to take care of her, but she refused.
Now she realized she really shouldn’t have been stubborn.
She had already given birth to two children, so she knew what to do. But now her stomach hurt too much, hot water was on the stove, but she was in too much pain to get out of bed.
An Lixia was still worried about her daughter, so she had Sun Yun drive her to come and take a look.
As soon as she entered the room, she was anxious. Her daughter was about to give birth.
"Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun, get in here quickly. Xiao Jing is about to give birth."
Sun Yun, who was outside tying the donkey, heard the noise. He rushed in immediately.
