Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

Chapter 105 Letter from Home (Part )

At this time, Lu Beiyuan didn't know that his future brother-in-law hadn't even seen him in person, so he had already fully planned how to deal with him in the future.

Yu Jiang didn't know about his brother's tragic experience, so he just continued to happily eat the dried meat sent by her future sister-in-law, and by the way, he read the letter sent by her legendary aunt.

Yu Jiang's aunt is called Yu Jiaojiao. She is the only daughter of Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu. As the youngest in the family, Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu have raised her since she was a child. They also hope that she can live like her name. The delicate and charming girl was so loved that she could not stop being loved.

Ms. Yu Jiaojiao spent the first 17 years of her life as smoothly as Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu expected. But when she was 18 years old, she first changed her university major without telling anyone, from education to journalism.

Although Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu were angry when they found out, at that time they thought their daughter was just interested in journalism and the deal was done, so they just let her go.

But later, after Yu Jiaojiao graduated from college, she only sent a letter home to express her determination, and then she resolutely went to the front line to become a war reporter!

After Grandpa Yu found out about this, he was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

Later, it was Father Yu who took Grandpa Yu to inquire around and found the war zone where Yu Jiaojiao was.

But when he actually arrived at the battlefield where Yu Jiaojiao was, and saw Yu Jiaojiao's busy figure in camouflage, Grandpa Yu hesitated. Did he really want to stop his daughter from pursuing her ideals?

Even if you don't have enough food, clothing or warmth in a place like this, you will always be woken up in the middle of the night, and your life may even be in danger at any time.

But he saw the light in his daughter's eyes. Having experienced the war, he also understood what his daughter was pursuing now. It was something worth pursuing throughout his life.

Grandpa Yu couldn't help but wonder, if he really took his daughter back, her safety would indeed be guaranteed, but would she really be so happy then?

No way...

After that, Grandpa Yu chatted with Yu Jiaojiao alone for a long time. Even Father Yu didn’t know what they said. In the end, Yu Jiaojiao stayed in the war zone, and Grandpa Yu and Father Yu embarked on the journey they came from. road.

Father Yu only remembers what his father kept mumbling

"This is my lifelong pursuit..."

After that, Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu never mentioned bringing Yu Jiaojiao back. They just prepared Yu Jiaojiao's share every time they did something, and then mailed it to her along with the letter.

Later, although Yu Jiaojiao transferred from the battlefield where she traveled all day to the army, not only did she gain a military rank, she also married the husband she had met in the battlefield and gave birth to a boy.

But due to work reasons, the last time Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu saw Yu Jiaojiao was more than a year ago.

In the letter, Yu Jiaojiao asked about her family's health and told them that she was doing well now. She was still working in the propaganda department of the army and the work she did was much less than when she was a reporter in the war field.

Due to the reform of the army, their original unit merged with another unit. Her husband Lan Guowei was also promoted from battalion commander to deputy regiment commander during this reform.

The other unit in this merger is Yu Hongcheng's unit. So although they are still not in the same family area, their family can be considered to be living together with Yu Hongcheng.

So much so that their brat Lan Nianhui, who is in his second year of high school, doesn't go home on weekends and goes straight to hang out with his cousin. Yu Hongcheng was quite happy at first to have a little follower, but now he was tired of being followed. He wanted to run away just looking at Lan Nianhui all day long.

They knew that the person Yu Hongcheng was talking to also learned from Lan Nianhui.

And Yu Hongcheng, who was leaked by Lan Nianhui, has been eager to go around this kid ever since!

Father Yu and the others didn't know yet that Yu Hongcheng was dating the daughter of their regiment leader, so although the Lan family and the Hu family had been seeing each other in the army, they had never had a formal visit.

But that boy Yu Hongcheng didn't know what he said in front of Captain Hu, and actually got Captain Hu to agree to him going to their house to celebrate the New Year.

Yu Jiaojiao also wrote all the gossip she heard about the two of them in a letter and told it to the Yu family.

Of course, all the above information comes from Lan Nianhui, who spends all day hanging out with Hu Yiyi, his future cousin-in-law.

Yu Hongcheng: Can you take this light bulb away?

After reading the letter written by his aunt, Yu Jiang felt that it was a little less interesting when he looked back at Yu Hongcheng's letter.

Alas, she reluctantly didn't write about it in the letter. Probably because the two of them hadn't talked for long, so she was embarrassed to say it. Secondly, maybe I want to give everyone a surprise.

The result is now good. Not only do everyone know about the person he was dating, but even the process of dating him was thoroughly shaken by his cousin and aunt.

I couldn't help but watch her grandma snicker!

Why does she feel pity for her brother inexplicably?

Needless to say, the package Yu Jiaojiao sent back this time contained various specialties, as well as cotton-padded jackets she made for Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu, as well as a wad of money and tickets hidden in the middle of the clothes.

The money was given by Yu Jiaojiao to Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu. Of course, Father Yu and Mother Yu wouldn't take it. They didn't check how much it was and gave it directly to Grandpa Yu.

This was not the first time that Grandpa Yu accepted money sent back from his daughter. He didn't count how much it was and put the money directly into his pocket. However, Grandpa Yu took out all the bills and put them in the place where the bills were kept at home, so that Grandma Yu and Mother Yu could look at them and use them.

As for the matter of replying to the letter, there is no rush. Now I cannot send it even if I write it during the Chinese New Year. Father Yu and the others plan to wait until the new year begins before replying to the army. At the same time, they had probably already discussed the matter of Yu Jiang and Lu Beiyuan with the Lu family at that time, and could also write to them to tell them.

correct!

Father Yu was only looking at what his sister had sent him, and for a moment he forgot about the person his son was talking about. Although the son didn't say anything, since the parents knew about it, they naturally had to call and ask!

So Yu Hongcheng, who didn't know that the person he was talking to had been exposed, was called to her aunt's office in confusion.

Her aunt was smiling and saying something to the other end of the phone. When she saw him coming over, she hurriedly greeted him to answer the phone.

"Hi, hello, I'm Yu Hongcheng."

Mother Yu across the street heard her son's official tone and joked: "Hello, comrade, I'm looking for my son."

Yu Hongcheng's mouth was faster than his brain, and he blurted out: "Okay, what is your son's name...Mom!"

God knows, when Yu Jiaojiao heard her silly nephew asking her sister-in-law what her son's name was, the sip of water she had just drank spit out, followed by a violent cough.

Her nephew must be stupid!

"Hey, do you still recognize me as your mother? I thought you were going to find me a new son!"

Yu Hongcheng was so stuck that she didn't know what to say, so she could only coax her mother and look at her aunt resentfully.

What kind of aunt from a good family would be so deceptive!

But what Yu's mother said later shocked Yu Hongcheng even more. His mother actually knew about the person he was talking to.

Yu Hongcheng stared at Yu Jiaojiao again as if he was an informant. Yu Jiaojiao shrugged, with an attitude of "what can you do to me".

Mother Yu also seemed to know what her son was thinking, and told Yu Hongcheng directly, "We didn't know who you were talking to from your aunt, and you don't even think about the difference between what you sent us in previous years and what you sent us this year." , at least, sending dried meat is not something that a bigot like you can think of?"

Yu Hongcheng: Mom, you really understand me...
