Chapter 733: Departure

Mrs. Qin soon learned that Mrs. Fu and the two children were going back with Qin Wenhao to the family housing on the army base.

She hurried over.

She arrived just in time to see Mrs. Fu packing things up.

Just then, the twins also ran out of the room.

Qin Hao was very excited. "Grandma, we’re leaving tomorrow!"

Qin Keke immediately hugged Mrs. Qin’s leg.

She looked up. "Grandma, we’ll miss you. Dad says we have to go to school later. When we have a break, we’ll come and visit you."

Her little granddaughter completely melted Mrs. Qin’s heart.

She picked the child up. "Grandma will definitely miss you too."

’But they’re still so young. Do they really have to go to that... what is it, kindergarten?’

’There’s no need, is there?’

’As for their education, it wasn’t her place to interfere. After all, both her son and daughter-in-law were more educated than her.’

’Since they’d decided on this, they probably had their own considerations and plans.’

"You’re just in time. I’ve sorted all this out for you. You can take it back with the three-wheeler later."

Some of it was meat, and some was rice and other things.

In fact, there was a lot of rice and flour left, but she had her son-in-law get rid of most of it.

Otherwise, at the rate they ate, they wouldn’t be able to finish it all in a year.

"This is too much. How about this? I’ll have Wenzhe ship it to you later. You’ll need to eat when you get there, anyway."

Mrs. Fu immediately said, "No need. I’ve already sorted out the things to be shipped, and Wenhao will mail them later. If you don’t take these, they’ll just go bad."

Hearing this, Mrs. Qin could only nod.

"Honestly, if you ask me, it would be better for you all to stay in Beijing City. The couple works year-round anyway—if he’s not on a mission, she’s on a business trip. They barely see the kids on a daily basis. If you’re here, we can look out for each other. Besides, doesn’t Mingxue come back for a month every semester?"

"As for the kids’ schooling—if you’re set on sending them to school, isn’t the Yuhong School here in Beijing City better? And there’s the kindergarten for the family compound. Both are quite good."

Mrs. Fu was fine with going anywhere.

She would go along with whatever the two of them decided anyway.

"I heard from Mingxue that her work will still be focused there for the next few years."

When Mrs. Qin heard this, she knew she couldn’t say any more.

She put the child down.

"Is there anything else you need to pack? Let me help you!"

"It’s basically done. I actually started packing a few days ago. The kids’ clothes and everything are all sorted. It’s just these things—you can take them back on the three-wheeler in a bit."

"Besides, Mingxue isn’t leaving just yet; she’ll still have to cook when she’s home."

Mrs. Qin nodded. "Alright then."

However, she stayed behind to help clean the house.

’Mrs. Fu was leaving, so the kitchen definitely had to be cleaned first. Although Fu Mingxue was still around, she would probably rarely use the kitchen.’

’After all, she spent all day and night at the research institute.’

’So, the kitchen had to be thoroughly cleaned.’

’Otherwise, it would attract mice and pests.’

The next day, Qin Wenshu drove over to see the three of them off.

The large packages had already been mailed ahead by Qin Wenhao.

What they carried with them were just some fragile items and other necessities.

Even so, they still had several packages for this trip.

Fu Mingxue didn’t have time to see them off. She had to work.

Besides, with no one at home for the next few days, she didn’t plan on coming back. She decided to sleep at the research institute for the next few nights instead.

The research institute had arranged a dormitory for her.
