Prank wedding pranks? Little fortune teller remarries military officer in a sweet romance.

Chen Guirong was also stunned: "Comrade Xiao Ling, could it be that my uncle is from the same village as your family?"

Ling Jiuyue didn't answer his question: "You'll find out soon enough!"

The villagers were quite surprised to see a car approaching from afar. They wondered how such a car could possibly come to their area.

The children chased after it wildly, shouting as they ran, very excited.

"Cars! Toy cars!"

Hearing the commotion, Ling Jianping quickly crawled out and put his sunglasses on his head.

"How strange! A Santana can actually get into our godforsaken little village."

The workers who were working for the Ling family all stopped what they were doing and looked at the car in the distance.

The car stopped on the side of Lingjia Road. Chen Guirong got out of the car with Ling Jiuyue, not understanding why he had been brought here.

Ling Jiuyue called out to her busy father and uncle, "Dad, Uncle, stop for a moment, I have something to say!"

The two brothers didn't understand what she was going to do, so they went downstairs to clean up and wash their hands and faces.

Sun Yulan assumed he was Yang Xingzhi's boss from the city, so she hurriedly invited him into the main room to sit down and took the opportunity to talk about her daughter.

"You should have said you were bringing guests back! Look at this mess... it's all unkempt!"

We built a house, and although it wasn't a big house, it was still quite messy everywhere.

Ling Guotai and Ling Guosheng, having washed themselves clean, came over: "September, who is this boss...?"

Chen Guirong froze the moment he saw the two of them, and said excitedly, "You...you wouldn't happen to be from my uncle's family...?"

"uncle?"

The Ling brothers were increasingly confused and looked at Ling Jiuyue, wondering what was going on.

Ling Jiuyue gestured for Chen Guirong to sit down and said to her uncle, "Uncle, I remember we still have a photo of the old man, right? Could you show it to this Uncle Chen?"

Ling Guotai was completely confused, so he went home and brought back two photos.

"There were originally many sheets, but it's all your grandma's fault. She burned a lot of them when she was arguing with your grandpa. Later, things got very messy, and some more were lost piece by piece. Now, only these two sheets remain."

Chen Guirong took one of the group photos, his hands trembling with excitement:

"This...this is a family photo. Look, this is my mother, this is my uncle, and this is me in the front row. I...I was only 11 years old then!"

The brothers Ling Guotai and Ling Guosheng exchanged glances, then struggled to speak: "You...you are..."

Chen Guorong gripped Ling Guosheng's hand tightly: "I...I am Ling Minjun's son, your cousin. By the way, how is your uncle doing?"

Ling Guotai realized: "So, so you are my aunt's son. I was just born the year you left. Later, my father talked about the Ling family's past and said that our family's ancestral home was in Jinling."

Because of the war, he fled all the way to Changling County. His aunt was too ill to walk, so he found a teaching job nearby. He originally planned to leave after his aunt's health improved, but unexpectedly...

The rest of the story is quite cliché: the eldest daughter of a landlord falls for a schoolteacher, pesters him relentlessly, and even fabricates stories about him defiling her reputation, forcibly keeping him with her.

"My father passed away almost forty years ago. When he was dying, he held my hand and said that if I had the chance in this lifetime, I must bury his ashes back in his hometown of Nanjing, which is where he can finally return to his roots!"

Ling Guotai couldn't help but cry as he said this.

He was only 12 years old when his father passed away, and his younger brother was only 10 years old. The three of them were left destitute and helpless, and their final arrangements were filled with sorrow.

"Guotai, your aunt... she's in poor health. During the war, we don't know where she fled to. In the future... if there's a chance, I must... I absolutely must find your aunt and, on behalf of... on behalf of your younger brother, say sorry to her... it's... I broke my promise and failed to fulfill my responsibility to take care of my elder sister!"

With the country shattered and war raging, the siblings eventually found solace in each other's care.

The old man was the youngest son. He lost his mother at a young age and was almost entirely raised by his eldest sister. It is said that an eldest sister is like a mother. His greatest regret was that he did not know the whereabouts of his eldest sister before he died, and he died with resentment.

Chen Guirong held one of the brothers' hands tightly on each side.

"You look so alike! You all look so much like your uncle! No wonder I recognized you at first glance..."

The three cousins ​​burst into tears.

Sun Yulan wiped away her tears and said to her daughter with emotion, "Those were very chaotic years. Your grandmother was a jinx. Because of her family background, our family was often used as a typical example."

After I married your father, he didn't dare mention your great-aunt to me, fearing he'd be taken advantage of. It's only in recent years, with improved social customs, that your father dared to ask around about your great-aunt, but unexpectedly...

By the way, how did you meet Chen... your cousin?

Ling Jiuyue thought to herself, "This is fate."

If she hadn't seen that Ge Junshan was kind-hearted and wanted to help him, Chen Guirong wouldn't have come to the county to ask her for help in finding the person.

Ge Junshan never expected that he would have this kind of fate.

"Hey, Xiao Yang, hurry up and get the good wine I brought from the car. Today is a joyous occasion for our family to reunite, we have to have a drink!"

Fortunately, he had prepared a gift in advance, thinking that when he met Chen Guirong's elders, he should at least give them a gift.

To everyone's surprise, the relative Chen Guirong was looking for turned out to be from the same family as Ling Jiuyue.

"Grandma, Grandma, what are you doing here chatting with people?"

Hearing the commotion coming from his second uncle's house, Ling Jianping was so anxious that he lost his shoes and ran to the village entrance to find the old lady chatting with someone under the big locust tree.

The old lady, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, looked at her grandson with a smile: "What are you doing? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Ling Jianping said anxiously, "Grandma, I heard that a wealthy relative of ours has come looking for us, the one who just drove into the village in a car!"

Rich relatives?

The old lady remembered that her two older brothers had followed some army back then, and later, when the war ended, they went to some place called Taiwan.

Could it be... that her two older brothers have come back?

"Come on, it must be your great-uncle coming back! Good heavens, all my waiting hasn't been in vain, he's finally back!"

Hearing the commotion, Chen Hongmei jogged over and kindly helped the old lady.

"Mom, if Uncle comes back, when he takes people to the city or arranges jobs, he should make sure to prioritize Jianping!"

The old lady grinned broadly, "Of course my precious grandson will come first, Jianping. Let me tell you, your great-uncle and his family are quite formidable. You'll see them in a bit..."

Sun Yulan was quite annoyed when she saw the old lady and Chen Hongmei and her son.

"What are you doing here?"
