Chapter 1785: Chapter 1785: Returning Full 6

"Of course not willing," Liu Baozhu snorted softly.

"Even if you’re unwilling, you have no choice. Her husband is a corrupt official, so the child is labeled as the child of a corrupt official, with a very bad background. Many children curse them like this and are unwilling to play with them. Her grandfather feels that this situation can’t continue, as it could easily impact their psyche. He has long intended to have her take the child and leave the unit to find another place to live."

Feng Qingxue nodded slightly. Liu Zhenguo’s worries were quite reasonable. Some naive children often harbor naive malice. They are too young to discern right from wrong and frequently use the gossip they hear from adults as weapons to attack others.

Not having to leave the unit compound, Liu Baozhu felt relieved, "Auntie, when will Fubao come back?"

"It will be a long time. Your Uncle Lu and I are too busy with work to take care of them." This year and the next are bound to be unsettling, with natural and man-made disasters one after another. Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue don’t dare to leave the children here because they will certainly be away from home for a long time when they are busy. "But Baozhu, you can write to Fubao, I’ll give you the address."

Liu Baozhu quickly said, "Fubao already gave it to me. I’ll write to her now. Counting the time, she should be home by now."

Indeed, she was home by now.

After receiving the telegram and confirming the arrival time, Lu Tianzhi and Xibao set off on a tractor to pick them up before dawn.

Miao Fengqin, Wang Fengqiao, and Zhou Zhou were thoughtful. They had the tractor’s cargo hold cleaned spotlessly, laying down a mat and two thick quilts, along with two additional thick cotton blankets.

Father Lu didn’t forget to remind them: "Eat at the state-run restaurant before coming back to avoid having an empty stomach filled with wind."

"Got it, Grandpa. We brought Grain Tickets. You should head home soon, it’s windy outside, don’t catch a cold." Lu Tianzhi picked up the handle to start the tractor, then swiftly put on his Lei Feng hat, wrapped a gray wool scarf, wore rabbit fur gloves, put on a military coat backward, sat on the driver’s seat, and waved to everyone, "We will definitely bring them back smoothly."

As for Xibao, he lay in the blankets all the way, with a bottle of hot saltwater inside.

The tractor chugged its way to the train station’s exit, instantly attracting a lot of attention. Seeing them in army coats and with their handsome appearances and outstanding demeanor, people were full of envy.

Lu Tianzhi patted his cousin’s shoulder, "I drank the wind all the way and was shivering from the cold, while you had such a good time."

Xibao, draped in an old army coat after getting off the car, chuckled and cupped his hands, "Those who can, do more work, Second Brother."

Cheng Baoguo and his wife, along with Xiaomiao and five children, didn’t make them wait long; they came out with the crowd in about half an hour. Lu Erxiong, with sharp eyes, waved and shouted ’brother’ while rushing over like a calf.

Fubao and Dundun held their downcast little brother’s hands, flanking him from both sides, and followed behind.

Lu Tianzhi and Xibao quickly came over to greet them and pick up the luggage. Although most of the clothes and bedding had been sent over, they still had quite a bit of carry-on luggage. Xiaomiao alone had a large bag on her back and was carrying two in her hands.

"Bro, is this the tractor from our brigade? Why isn’t it Dongfanghong?" Lu Erxiong nimbly climbed into the cargo hold.

Compared to livestock, hand tractors were already very convenient for farming and transportation, but more convenient were crawler tractors, which could plough several times more acreage in a day than hand tractors. However, Huaibei City’s quota for such tractors had not been assigned to their brigade but was allocated to some impoverished brigades in poverty-stricken counties.
