Chapter 904 This departure is a final farewell
Seeing how cheerful her son has become, it seems he has truly come to his senses and is planning to learn to cook and do laundry so he can get married.
Wang Cuilan was very happy until the day he left.
“Mother, I’ve taken on a mission. I can’t say what it’s about or where I’ll be working, but it’s for the good of the country. It’ll take at least three years, and at most…” He didn’t dare say ten or eight years, and smiled slightly, “at most five years. During this time, I can’t leave or contact you.”
Only then did Wang Cuilan's expression change drastically.
"Son, are you saying you can't come back or contact the family for three to five years?"
"Yes, that's the mission requirement."
"Oh dear, what kind of job is this? Can't we just not do it?" Wang Cuilan asked anxiously.
Lu Jiangting smiled and said, "Mother, completing the mission will lead to a promotion and a raise. Once I become a high-ranking official, I won't have to worry about not being able to find a wife. Then I'll take you to the city to enjoy a life of luxury."
Although Wang Cuilan was reluctant to part with him, she also understood that she could not stop her son from pursuing his future.
In addition, his two daughters also persuaded him, saying that this was a good thing and that his younger brother should do it.
In the end, Wang Cuilan had no choice but to agree with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, now that you've completed your mission, you must come back to see your mother as soon as possible."
"Well, I will definitely do it."
Lu Jiangting kept turning back every few steps, his eyes frighteningly red.
If the dream is real, then Mother won't live for many more years.
This parting may be forever.
Wang Cuilan watched the train drive away until it was out of sight before leaving with her daughter's help.
“I sensed something was wrong a long time ago. I should have known something was going to happen. He's become so well-behaved since he came back, even giving gifts to all the relatives and visiting them one by one. And also... he used to give you fifty a month, but this time he said he'd increase it to one hundred starting next month... Waaah... Do you think something might have happened to him?”
"Mom, no, his job isn't dangerous."
"How can you say there's no danger? Have you forgotten how Wang Jianjun died?"
Two people: "..."
They don't understand either.
However, someone understood. The eldest sister's youngest son said, "Grandma, what era are we living in? There's no war anymore. My uncles don't need to go to the battlefield to work on signals anymore. They've switched to research and development, communicating with pens and keyboards. Don't worry, there won't be any danger."
That's what she said, but she always felt that she would never see her beloved eldest son again.
……
After returning, Lu Jiangting applied to participate in that secret mission; those selected would be sent to the Northwest.
Before leaving, I gave them two days off so they could buy some personal items and make necessary arrangements.
Lu Jiangting had made all the necessary arrangements. He went to the hospital one last time, talked with their psychologist for a long time, and took away his medical records that he had left there.
However, he didn't buy any more medicine before leaving, knowing that he wouldn't have another relapse.
On his first night away, he sat alone outside the wall opposite Lin Yuyao's residential complex.
Through the iron fence, you can see the bright lights on the other side of the lake and hear the laughter of children.
Occasionally, you can still hear her scolding the children.
That familiar voice instantly brought tears to his eyes.
This time he kept his promise and did not see her.
No matter how much I miss her, I won't go to see her or cause her any trouble.
This time, there is a man who cares about her and loves her.
She can be very happy with two lovely children.
……
Lu Jiangting left, and Fu Huaiyi didn't tell Lin Yuyao either. Who cares?
Anyway, Lin Yuyao didn't care.
She's now interested in gossip, especially her sister-in-law's gossip.
"You've really gotten together with Attorney Nie?"
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's a good thing. But I'll say a few words of truth, don't be angry, don't overthink it."
"Just say it."
"Attorney Nie is best at handling divorce cases, and he's said to be especially good at fighting for assets. If you marry him, you'd better be careful."
Fu Yatong chuckled, "Isn't he your company's chief lawyer?"
"Well, so what? You're my sister-in-law, of course I'll side with you."
"Okay, okay, when I marry him, I'll hire a legal team to draft a prenuptial agreement for me. If we end up getting a divorce, I'll make sure he doesn't get the better of me."
Attorney Nie is a decent person, but his strong professional skills, along with his silver tongue, make him someone to be wary of.
Unfortunately, he overheard this.
Attorney Nie didn't hold back in dismantling his argument.
"Boss Lin, it's one thing for you to talk badly about me behind my back, but how come you're even teaching my wife to deal with me? We're not even married yet, what will happen after we get married?"
Lin Yuyao: "..." Awkward.
Fu Yatong: "My sister-in-law is doing this for my own good. Tell me, shouldn't we be wary of someone like you?"
“Yes, absolutely.” Attorney Nie said with a smile, “Don’t let outsiders make money. Just come to me directly. I’ll write a prenuptial agreement myself. If we end up getting divorced, I won’t take advantage of you. I’ll leave with nothing.”
Their parents both agreed to their relationship. Attorney Nie was someone they both knew, especially Chen Bingzhi.
Someone you know well is likely to have good character.
He just comes from a less privileged background; his parents are both technicians in an ordinary factory.
But that doesn't matter; the Fu family doesn't need their children to marry into other families.
However, his siblings are all quite successful; they all went to university and have respectable jobs.
This shows that their family has good genes, the parents know how to educate their children, and the family has a good tradition.
The Fu family values family traditions, so they never looked down on Lin Yuyao because her family was from the countryside.
The two families sat down together to discuss the wedding, chose an auspicious day, and got married six months later.
Fu Yatong and Nie Qi originally wanted to buy their wedding home in their neighborhood, but unfortunately, all the houses in that neighborhood had already been sold out.
Left with no other choice, they bought a new apartment building developed by Fu Leyi's company.
It's not far from here, just across one residential complex.
This area is a wealthy neighborhood, and the houses are all quite nice.
Now that even Fu Yatong has settled down in Nancheng, the old man is quite emotional.
"When I retired, I said I was going back to my hometown and would stay in the old house forever. I never thought I would come back. Sigh! When you get old, you don't have the final say in this family, and the children don't follow me. I'm like my two children; I have to listen to you. Wherever you are, I have to be there."
“Dad, that’s right. Old people are just like children.
"What about the house back home? Should we just abandon it?"
Fu Xingye said, "Dad, we're still here, aren't we? Xiaofeng and I are still living in our hometown."
"Tsk, Huaiyi and Yatong have settled down in Nancheng. How long can you stay in your hometown? When you get old and can't walk anymore, won't you have to come and live with your children to take care of you?"
Fu Huaiyi: "Grandpa, Yuyao and I will retire and go back to our hometown."
