Chapter 574: Rumors_1

Spring Festival in the year '88 falls in mid-February. Gu Xiaobei felt this winter was particularly long. With Spring Festival so far away, she hoped that Lu Zhanguo would return home for the festivities and they would have a peaceful and joyous celebration together as a family.

As December arrived, there was still no news from Lu Zhanguo. No phone calls or letters. The first thing Xiaopang would do every morning after waking up was to ask, "Mom, where's dad? Why hasn't dad come back yet?"

"If dad doesn't come back soon, I'll be all grown up!"

Gu Xiaobei was amused and helpless. She playfully pinched Xiaopang's little nose and said, "You're going to grow up in just a few days? Wait till spring arrives. When the peach blossoms in our yard bloom, dad will be back."

Xiaopang was disappointed and let out a sigh. When would the peach trees blossom?

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of April, and the peach trees in their yard were in full bloom.
