Chapter 315: Chapter 316: The Fourth Brother is Back 4

Having seen so much life and death on the battlefield, Chen Jianjun, who was used to blood but not tears, had his eyes instantly turn red upon hearing the word "daddy."

He tossed his luggage onto the ground and took out all the canned meats he had packed inside, "Your grandma told me you love canned meat. So I brought some home for you."

"Thank you, daddy."

Seeing so many cans, Helian Qiao broke into a delighted grin, her baby fat cheeks puffing slightly, and she looked even cuter and adorable.

Seeing her so happy, Chen Jianjun couldn’t help but smile broadly, like a goofy dad. His girl had such a beautiful smile!

"Alright! Now that we’re home, let’s go inside and talk!" After the joy of reunion, Ma Xiulian invited Chen Jianjun to sit in the house and chat.

Chen Jianjun led his little girl into the house, leaning on his crutch.

Ma Xiulian immediately poured him a bowl of water, her gaze falling on his leg, a trace of pain flashing across her face, "Fourth, what happened to your leg?"

Chen Dazhu also silently looked at his leg, holding his pipe between his lips and took a hefty puff.

Chen Jianjun said with a trace of resignation in his tone, "It was broken, but it’s been set. If I’m lucky, I’ll be able to walk just like a normal person!"

If he was unlucky, he would be left with a slight limp.

But that didn’t matter, he was content that he was alive.

Besides, he had a daughter who was so adored by everyone.

His parents were heartbroken, but they were also content. After all, being alive was better than anything else!

Ma Xiulian then asked, "So, you’re going to stay home from now on?"

Chen Jianjun nodded, "Yes! I’ll stay at home and take care of my parents."

Even if his leg got better, he wouldn’t be fit for missions. It would be better to stay home and care for his parents.

"It’s better to stay at home!"

His siblings nodded in agreement, thinking they could help more in the future.

They all understood the unspoken meaning of his words, feeling a bit sighful. Serving in the military indeed provided higher wages, but it was also very dangerous!

Luckily, they had adopted Guibao. Otherwise, it would be hard for a man with a limp to find a wife.

At this thought, Zhao Mei and Liu Lanzhi began to feel a bit sorry for their young niece, fearing she might have to live a hard life with the fourth brother.

In the countryside, without good legs, he would not be able to do heavy labor to earn work points.

Li Chunhua, however, felt secretly relieved.

Thankfully, they were about to divide the family assets soon, or they would have to feed a freeloader with a limp!

Only Zhou Zhaodi sat calmly on the side, not worried at all about his niece’s future hardships.

Guibao was like a little fairy, and the meat bestowed by Heaven alone was enough to fill their bellies, let alone the canned beef and white rabbit candies given by Master Gu every day.

Jiang Manyun, the future mother-in-law, often brought Guibao pickles and large meat buns from state-owned restaurant.

At this point, a completely reassured Ma Xiulian propped herself up from the table and said, "Alright! You must be tired after such a long journey, go wash your face and rest, I’ll go make your bed."

After Chen Jianjun had washed his face and feet, he wanted to spend more time with his little girl, but was insistently sent to bed by his mother.

"It won’t make much difference to wait a bit longer, you’ll be able to see her every day from now on!"

His eyes were bloodshot, showing a lack of good sleep for far too long.

Chen Jianjun had no choice but to obediently lie down on the bed, "Alright, I’ll listen to you."

Perhaps he was truly tired. Lying in the familiar room, he soon fell asleep.

Ma Xiulian stealthily peeked at him, seeing him asleep, she picked up her granddaughter cheerfully saying, "Our little darling, let’s go wash our face and brush our teeth, and then have a nice warm foot soak."
