490: Unexpectedly, my wish has now come true.

"Sister-in-law Xiao, what's wrong?"

Grandma Gu heard the crying and, listening carefully, realized Grandma Xiao's room door was open.

She quickly walked over to express her concern.

"Niannian just called me."

Grandma Gu's heart instantly tightened when she heard Grandma Xiao's tearful voice.

"What did Niannian say?"

Niannian had just arrived at the Military Unit and had just called them to report her safety. Could something have happened?

Grandma Gu swayed, instantly filled with anxiety.

"Sister-in-law Gu, it's good news."

Grandma Xiao saw Grandma Gu's pale, anxious face, quickly wiped her tears, and shared the good news with Grandma Gu.

Ah? It's good news?

"Niannian just called and said she met her Eldest Son, Red Army, at the Arms Factory, and now she's found her Adoptive Mother and Older Brothers..."

Really? That's wonderful.

Grandma Gu was so excited she almost jumped up.

She could deeply understand this feeling; back then, they had been searching for their Granddaughter and daughter-in-law, and the moment they learned their Granddaughter was alive and found, she also cried tears of joy.

"That's wonderful."

"Congratulations, Sister-in-law Xiao."

Grandma Xiao looked at Grandma Gu, tears in her eyes, and said,

"Sister-in-law Gu, I want to go to the Chengdu tomorrow. I've waited for over twenty years; I can't wait to see them right away..."

"Alright, first thing tomorrow morning, we'll buy your ticket, Sister-in-law Xiao, and I'll arrange for two people to accompany you to the Chengdu..."

Grandma Xiao quickly waved her hand.

"No need to arrange anyone, I'll take the train."

"No, that won't do. Sister-in-law Xiao, we won't be at ease with you going alone, and Niannian would also worry."

After a while, Grandma Xiao agreed.

When it came to her Granddaughter, Grandma Xiao naturally wouldn't want her Granddaughter to worry.

"Alright, then I'll trouble Sister-in-law Gu."

"We're family, what's there to trouble?"

Grandma Gu said with a chuckle.

If it weren't for the doctor telling them not to travel far recently, they would have wanted to go to Yangcheng and stay in Niannian's unit's Family Courtyard for a while.

The director of the Military Medical Hospital said that she and her old man should wait until the weather gets warmer before going out.

Niannian also instructed them to wait until after spring, when the weather was warmer, before going to Yangcheng.

Xiao Niannian watched her Adoptive Mother busy herself, spreading out new quilts, then bringing new shoes, socks, and items like buckets and washbasins, handing them all to her... "Niannian, these are all new, for you to use..."

These were originally prepared for her Eldest Son and second son, but now, they were all for her daughter. Those two rascals could just use old things; why would they need new ones? Only her daughter needed new things.

And there was brand new vanishing cream and such, which was hers, but now she gave it all to her daughter. Tomorrow, she would go to the department store to buy more skincare products. At Niannian's age, she should apply more skincare products and take good care of her skin, so she would still look young when she reached forty or fifty.

"Thank you, Mama."

"Oh."

Mother Xiao's eyes welled up with tears of excitement when Niannian called her Mama.

She was truly overjoyed today; she had a daughter.

Thinking of this, Mother Xiao decided to call her parents.

Although it was very late, she still had to call her parents to tell them the good news. She would also tell her parents about what happened back then, letting them know that it was all a misunderstanding, that Xiao Dong and his group deliberately set them up, causing their family to misunderstand her mother-in-law... "Mama is going to make a call. If you need anything, just call Mama."

"Okay, thank you, Mama."

Xiao Niannian watched her Adoptive Mother walk towards the living room with a joyful expression, and her own face was also full of smiles.

She could tell that her Adoptive Mother's knot in her heart was gone. The entire person was much happier than before, her smile unstoppable, and the sadness that was previously in her eyes when looking at her was replaced entirely by joy... "Mama."

"I have something to tell you..."

Xiao Niannian heard her Adoptive Mother in the living room on the phone with her Maternal Grandparents, talking about what happened back then.

Half an hour later, Mother Xiao walked in and saw Xiao Niannian sitting there. She smiled and asked,

"Niannian, can't you sleep?"

"Mama, I can sleep."

"Shall Mama sleep with you?" Mother Xiao looked at Niannian and said with a smile. "Your Father and I always longed for a daughter... Unexpectedly, our wish has truly come true now..."

"Okay."

Xiao Niannian heard her Adoptive Mother's words and remembered that Grandma had also said something similar.

And Father Gu and Grandma Gu had also said it.

"Niannian, from now on, we are family. Tell Mama anything that happens..." After more than twenty years, she finally had a daughter. This was the first time she was sleeping in the same bed with her daughter, and she was incredibly excited.

"Okay."

Xiao Niannian talked with Mother Xiao for over an hour. Although she wasn't usually a talkative person, seeing her Adoptive Mother's happy and delighted expression, she was naturally willing to chat more with her.

Xiao Niannian woke up around six in the morning.

"Niannian, why don't you sleep a little longer? Mama is making breakfast for you all."

Mother Xiao had woken up at five, and after more than an hour of bustling, she had prepared a table full of breakfast.

"Mama, after I eat breakfast, I have to report back to the Arms Factory..."

Only then did Mother Xiao remember that her daughter was currently on a business trip, not on vacation.

"Alright, alright, alright. Then after work, see if you can ask your commander for leave, and I'll have your second Older Brother pick you up..."

"Did you remember the home phone number?"

Xiao Niannian nodded.

"Okay, if I don't have to work overtime, I'll ask for leave and come back."

There wasn't much busy work right now, so Xiao Niannian agreed with a smile.

"That's wonderful! Mama will cook all your favorite dishes for you to eat..."

Watching Niannian get into the car and leave, Mother Xiao immediately instructed her second son.

"Weijun, you go with Mama to the department store now to buy things. Take out all your tickets. Mama still has some saved from before. Now, make a list and buy things for your younger sister, and yes, also for your Grandma..."

Xiao Weijun hadn't seen his Mama so happy in many years, and he agreed with a smile.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

As long as Mama was happy, she could do anything she wanted.

Xiao Niannian returned to the Arms Factory, and after exchanging a few words with her Eldest Brother, she entered the Research Institute.

Xiao Hongjun also returned to his unit.

"Company Commander, was that little girl yesterday really your younger sister?"

"She's my younger sister, my biological one."

Xiao Hongjun said proudly.

Many of these soldiers and Comrades-in-arms under him had younger sisters, and some even liked to show off in front of him. Now they also had a younger sister, a biological younger sister, a biological younger sister with the same surname.

They used to envy others for having younger sisters; now they also had one.

In the future, they could buy many, many things for their younger sister.

Last night, he had given all his money and tickets to Mama, keeping only about twenty yuan for himself.

Payday was approaching soon.
