Chapter 423 Obstacles

Grandma Qi San told these people in advance that she was worried that they would not be used to it.
Harsh conditions can be overcome, but if people's hearts are at odds, it will cause family disharmony.
Anna smiled and said, "Mom, it's true that we are not used to it, but this is our home, we will overcome it, you don't have to worry about us."
"Yes, Mom, don't worry." Qi Shuliang said, even if he wanted to stay here for a while, it was impossible.
Besides, this is where he grew up, he has gotten used to it.
I'm afraid of the two children.
Qi Zhenghan and Qi Zhengmin are indeed not used to it, especially when going to the toilet, they are particularly uncomfortable, worried that they will fall into the pit, and the pit is very smelly.
But they are all good children, and they don't want to make their grandmother sad, so they nodded and said, "Grandma, don't worry, we will get used to it in two days."
"That's good." Grandma Qi San smiled, and these children also comforted her.
Bai Qiongyu smiled and said, "Sister Qi, we have been mentally prepared before coming, so don't think too much."
The living conditions here are indeed very poor, but there is no way.
Compared with the pain of missing relatives, the inconvenience in life is nothing.
"Hearing you say that, I feel better." Grandma Qi San said that she has been accustomed to living here. Even if it is the closest person, if she says that this place cannot be tolerated, she will be sad.
He Tiantian boiled two large pots of water for everyone to wash and said, "Okay, it's late, the hot water has been boiled, you should wash up quickly. We are on the train, and after we come back, we have been busy all day and are very tired."
As the host, He Tiantian has to take care of these outsiders. Although she is not the granddaughter of Grandma Qi San, she has lived here for a long time and is used to working, so the task of taking care of everyone also falls on He Tiantian.
But these are her relatives, and He Tiantian is happy.
He Tiantian has written the names of the wooden basins she bought so that they will not use them by mistake.
After everyone simply washed up, they returned to the room to rest.
Sleeping on a hard bed with bedding at night, Qi Shuliang hugged Anna and said, "Anna, I'm sorry for wronging you."
"Dear, I will never feel wronged." Anna said, "This is your home, your roots. The place that you H people value most, as your lover, I will also accept it."
"Thank you, marrying you is the greatest happiness of my life." Qi Shuliang said with emotion. In his heart, Anna is like a princess living in a castle. He promised his father-in-law that he would not let Anna suffer any grievances.
The material life here is something Anna has never been exposed to before.
"Me too." Anna smiled, "Dear, I'm tired, let's go to sleep."
Fortunately, the bed in He Tiantian's room is big enough for three people.
Although it's a bit crowded, Bai Qiongyu and Xianglan are very happy because this can bring them closer to He Tiantian.
He Tiantian is busy running around, bringing hot water to Bai Qiongyu and Xianglan for them to wash their faces and feet and clean their personal hygiene.
When she got to the bed, Bai Qiongyu was a little excited thinking about sleeping with He Tiantian.
By the time He Tiantian came in after packing up, it was already half an hour later.
He Tiantian changed into pajamas and got into bed.
Now she was covered with a thin quilt. Three people covered two beds in case it was not enough.
When she got to the bed, He Tiantian saw her grandmother holding a book in her hand and reading with glasses by the oil lamp.
"Grandma, there are no bright electric lights here, only dim oil lamps like beans. You can't read at night at all. It hurts your eyes." He Tiantian said, "If you want to read, read it tomorrow during the day."
Bai Qiongyu closed the book, patted the seat next to her and said, "Come and sleep quickly."
He Tiantian lifted the quilt, slept next to her grandmother, and then blew out the oil lamp.
Xianglan slept at the other end, and He Tiantian and Bai Qiongyu slept at one end. Sleeping like this is more spacious.
"Tiantian, you lived in Country M before. Are you used to it after you came back?" Bai Qiongyu asked. Today she saw He Tiantian working everywhere like a hardworking little bee, without stopping for a moment.
"What's there to be accustomed to? I've lived here for so long." He Tiantian said, "I have to say that life in Country M is convenient."
"Do you want to go back with me this time?" Bai Qiongyu asked. She came here to recognize her relatives this time.
As long as her son's family is willing, she will take them away no matter what the price.
He Tiantian thought for a while and said, "Grandma, I don't want to go."
"Can't bear to leave your parents?" Bai Qiongyu said, "I just told your father that as long as they are willing, I can take you all out. You know, I have the ability."
If her parents also agreed to go to Country M, He Tiantian's reason for not wanting to leave her parents would be a bit far-fetched.
He Tiantian knew very clearly in her heart that if she followed her grandmother, she might not be able to be with Huo Yingjie in this life.
Because Huo Yingjie worked, her political review might not pass.
Even if Huo Yingjie gave up his job now, it was too late now, because Huo Yingjie was involved in many major projects and knew a lot of secrets.
In this way, He Tiantian was very embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
"Hey, I know what you're thinking," Bai Qiongyu said. "You're worried that if you go to Country M, you and Huo Yingjie will drift apart and no longer be together."
He Tiantian smiled awkwardly and said, "Grandma, the relationship between me and Huo Yingjie will not change because of time and distance. What is blocking us now is political factors."
"Desperate for love, just like when I was young." Bai Qiongyu said, "I could secretly come to Nanshi with your grandfather without telling my father. I know that when love comes, it will be desperate, so I won't stop you. I just want to say that if you are tired and wronged, please don't forget that you still have your parents, grandma, we always welcome you back."
"Thank you, grandma!" He Tiantian said. Being with Huo Yingjie is her obsession for two lifetimes.
Even if it is like a moth flying into a flame, she will go and experience it.
"Don't thank me." Bai Qiongyu said, "Because I know you are like me. Once you make a decision, you will not change it easily, especially in terms of feelings. Unless you are hurt and in pain, you will never look back."
"Grandma, you are so nice." He Tiantian smiled and praised her grandmother.
Her family respected her choice and did not embarrass her, but it has always been a warm harbor for He Tiantian.
Xianglan listened to the conversation between the two and said with a smile: "Okay, it's late, go to bed early. Otherwise, you won't be able to get up tomorrow morning!"
"Then grandma, good night, Grandma Lan." He Tiantian whispered and closed her eyes.
"Good night." Bai Qiongyu said. She was really tired after her mood fluctuated a lot today.
