1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 1033 The Unexpected Yet Expected

For a moment, you could hear a pin drop in the room.

Miao Yiqiu became an older single woman because her fiancé died saving her, and she has been unable to get over it.

After Han Chunyi, who had always taken good care of her, disappeared, she volunteered to help take care of Xiao Changjiang. One reason was to distract herself from the matter, and the other was to repay Sister Chunyi. She never thought that Han Chunyi would not come back, but she waited for several years.

She remained unmarried, and Xiao Yude never found Han Chunyi, but some ignorant people spread a lot of gossip about them.

Miao Yiqiu was the first to approach Xiao Yude and share her thoughts. Xiao Yude did not agree immediately, but said that he could not give her an answer for the time being, since he was not alone and also had his son Xiao Changjiang.

It wasn't until he received news of Han Chunyi's sacrifice, and because he was too busy with work to take care of Xiao Changjiang, that the two agreed to get married.

Although things started that way, after so many years of companionship, Grandpa Xiao never expected Miao Yiqiu to be so resolute, and he was momentarily speechless.

After a long while, Old Master Xiao finally spoke: "Are you serious?"

Miao Yiqiu nodded gently: "I haven't forgotten our promise. Now that Sister Chunyi has been found, of course I will."

She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone in the room understood.

Grandpa Xiao did not agree immediately: "We'll discuss this with the children later and then decide."

Miao Yiqiu didn't hesitate: "Okay."

That's what she said, but she was still a little sad inside. However, Chunyi had treated her like a younger sister, and considering how she had been alone in that place for so many years, she really couldn't let Xiao Yude go. Besides, her young lover was waiting for her, and she still remembered his unrestrained and flamboyant face. This arrangement would be good for everyone.

Miao Yiqiu may look frail, but she has a strong heart. After returning to Beijing, she immediately contacted several children.

When Xiao Yude went out to run errands, he found his whole family waiting for him. After he sat down, he heard his eldest son, Xiao Changjiang, say with a serious expression, "Aunt Miao, have you made up your mind?"

Miao Yiqiu nodded emphatically: "Yes."

Xiao Yude understood without being asked: "You..."

He had barely uttered a word when Miao Yiqiu interrupted him: "I've discussed it with Nianchun, and she respects my opinion."

Having both come through the hail of bullets, the two looked at each other and Grandpa Xiao nodded in agreement, thus bringing the matter to a conclusion.

Strangely enough, instead of causing estrangement within the family, the family members became even closer because of this incident.

With the matter resolved, construction quickly commenced at the clan's residence.

The day before Qingming Festival, apart from Chuxue, who was getting married next month, Xiao's mother, who was heavily pregnant, did not return to Liujia Village.

The Xiao family brought several members of the Xiao family to Liushu Village. Early the next morning, they went up the mountain, set off a string of firecrackers, and began to relocate the graves.

Despite everyone's advice, after finding Han Chunyi who had been hastily buried, Grandpa Xiao personally pieced her remains together and placed them into the newly prepared coffin: "Chunyi, I've come to take you away. You must stay close to me."

While the villagers were asking around about the firecrackers coming from the mountain, Han Chunyi's coffin had already been carried by the Xiao family and his two sons onto a large Dongfeng truck waiting at the foot of the mountain.

Grandpa Xiao secretly had someone calculate an auspicious time. As soon as the car returned to the clan's territory, someone came to collect the coffin, and the coffin was reburied at the auspicious time.
