Chapter 1992 - 1992: Family Reunion Part 4
If he were to find out, he would definitely make a fuss with me!
"Keep it hidden, it must be hidden! Anyway, Jiaojiao lost it, and it's impossible to find it back. At worst, at worst, at worst, I'll compensate them elsewhere in the future." With her hair already silver-white, Miao Fengqin gritted her teeth. After so many years, if she didn't mention it, who would know about this? Even if heaven and earth knew, she couldn't tell Wang Zhenguo.
With this mindset, before the Lu Family set off, Miao Fengqin prepared plenty of food for them to eat on the train, using every food container in the house, like lunch boxes, jar bottles, malt essence bottles, and the like.
Outside was a world of ice and snow, the farther north they went, the lower the temperatures, so food wouldn't spoil quickly.
"Big Aunt prepared so much food for us, I couldn't refuse despite trying, Grandpa, Grandma, hurry up and eat!" When mealtime came, Xibao first bought hot soup and pancakes, cooked eggs and meat for his grandparents and Cheng Baoguo on the train.
The cooked meat was braised pig offal, probably specially bought by Miao Fengqin from her son-in-law, almost a whole set was there.
Pig liver and lungs were sliced, large intestines chopped into sections, braised pig's trotters cut into pieces, pig tails, head meat, and ears were seasoned deliciously with plenty of sesame oil. Once the lunch box was opened, a strong aroma overwhelmed the mix of smells in the sleeper carriage.
Cheng Baoguo loved to eat pig head meat, and even though Feng Qingxue said eating too much meat was unhealthy, he continued as he pleased, putting several chopsticks of pig head meat on his noodles and eating quickly. While eating, he reminded his elderly wife and Lu's father, "It won't taste good if it gets cold, hurry up, once we finish eating we can rest well, it still takes a long time to reach the capital."
"I'll first take some to Brother Tianzhi and Brother Guan Yu." Xibao picked up the lunch box with various braised meats and walked out.
The four of them bought tickets for the same sleeper compartment, while Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu, along with Grandma Zhou, were in the neighboring compartment. When Xibao arrived, Zhou Zhou was feeding her grandmother some mushy noodles.
It's often said that long illness leads to unfilial children, but after several years, Guan Yu and Zhou Zhou kept taking good care of Grandma Zhou.
Lu Tianzhi took it in his hands and advised, "Just call out if you need anything, we will definitely hear."
"Got it!" Xibao understood very well.
At that time, the security on the train was very good, and after finishing the food brought on board, they reached their destination.
Lu Jiang had already received a telegram from home, and coincidentally, he was on leave, so he was at the train station to welcome them punctually. Upon hearing that a lot of items were brought to Beijing, in addition to two cars, he specifically borrowed a military truck from the army.
Even with mental preparation, he was still stunned by the amount of goods they shipped.
A pile as high as a small mountain, with everything imaginable, carrying a musty smell.
Lu's father coughed, and with a stern face said, "These are items the country returned to our family. I thought long and hard, whether you live in the capital or work somewhere else, you won't return to our old home. Though not of great value, I couldn't leave them at the old home, so I brought them all along. Fortunately, Anbang helped us arrange the train shipment."
Lu Jiang understood and hurriedly led his guards to load everything onto the vehicle.
The furniture had mostly been disassembled for easier transport, chinaware and decorations were packed in wooden boxes and sealed tightly, and books and calligraphy were even easier to pack, so they managed to load everything in just a few trips.
