After the Chinese New Year, Zhou Ziwen took his two sisters and children out to visit relatives and friends to wish them a happy new year.

In fact, they didn’t have many relatives in the city, and they only visited Zhou Chaoyang and Zhou Bo once.

Then the eldest sister took Zheng Ming and the children home to visit relatives.

Eldest sister Zhou Xiulan brought Zheng Ming and the children home to visit relatives. The family sat together, laughing and talking.

Zhou Xiulan held Zhou Ziwen's hand, her eyes full of concern: "Ziwen, is life in the countryside hard? If you encounter any difficulties, be sure to tell me."

Zhou Ziwen smiled and replied, "Sister, it's not hard. I'm doing well in the village. I've made many friends and everyone takes good care of me."

Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying also shared their life in the countryside with their elder sister, talking about the simplicity and kindness of the villagers.

The children were laughing and playing nearby. Little Yueyue was holding a small doll to tease her little nephew, while little Xuanxuan was watching curiously, laughing happily from time to time.

Zheng Ming sat aside, listening carefully to everyone's conversation and nodding in agreement from time to time.

He looked at Zhou Ziwen and said, "Ziwen, I heard from my elder sister that you have done a lot of things in the countryside. You are very creative."

Zhou Ziwen replied modestly: "Brother Zheng, I also want to make some contributions to the village and make everyone's life better."

Father Zhou looked at this heartwarming scene with a happy smile on his face. He said to Zhou Xiulan and Zheng Ming, "You should take good care of yourselves in the city and don't work too hard."

Zhou Xiulan nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry. We are all fine. But you and Mom, please take care of your health."

However, the time we spend together is always short.

As the holiday came to an end, Zhou Ziwen and his family had to prepare to return home.

On the day of departure, light snow fell from the sky, as if adding a touch of sadness to the separation.

Mother Zhou got up early and prepared a hearty breakfast for them, her eyes full of reluctance: "Eat more and be careful on the road."

Zhou Ziwen and his family ate breakfast in silence, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

The children seemed to sense the breath of parting. Little Yueyue held Mother Zhou's hand tightly and whispered, "Grandma, I don't want to leave."

Mother Zhou held back her tears and comforted her, "Be good, Yueyue. Come back next time you have a holiday. Grandma will miss you."

Father Zhou patted Zhou Ziwen on the shoulder and said, "Son, go back and work hard. Don't worry about the family."

Zhou Ziwen nodded and said, "Dad, I will. You and Mom should take care of yourselves too."

The second sister, Zhou Yaqin, hugged little Yueyue, tears in her eyes: "Little Yueyue, listen to your parents. Auntie will miss you."

Little Yueyue nodded sensibly: "Auntie, I will miss you too."

Zhou Xiaomei's eyes were red as she handed Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying two towels she had woven herself: "Sister-in-law, Sister Shiying, I made these for you. Wearing them is like being by your side."

Chen Qiaoyi took the towel and hugged Zhou Xiaomei with emotion: "Xiaomei, you are so thoughtful. We will definitely keep it well."

Chen Shiying also smiled and nodded: "Little sister, thank you. You must take good care of yourself at home and try to find a good partner this year."

After hearing what Chen Shiying said, Zhou Xiaomei blushed slightly and said angrily, "Sister Shiying, stop teasing me."

But there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

After breakfast, Zhou Ziwen and his family began to pack their luggage and prepare to leave.

Mother and Father Zhou kept stuffing all kinds of food into their bags, fearing that they would be hungry on the way back.

While Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi were packing up, they comforted the two elderly people and told them not to worry.

"Mom and Dad, we will write to you often. You should also take care of your health at home." Zhou Ziwen said.

"That's right, we will be fine. It's not easy for you in the countryside, so you must take good care of yourselves." Chen Qiaoyi also added.

Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan were infected by the adults' emotions and became much quieter.

"Okay, it's almost time, we have to go." Zhou Ziwen looked at the time and said goodbye to his family.

After hearing what Zhou Ziwen said, Zhou's father and mother looked reluctant, but still nodded.

The second sister Zhou Yaqin took Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying's hands and reminded them again:

"Yiyi, Shiying, if you encounter any problems in the village, please tell us immediately. If you need anything, please feel free to write back."

Chen Qiaoyi smiled and said, "Second sister, don't worry. We will take good care of ourselves. You should also take good care of yourself in the city. We will try to hear the news of your marriage this year."

Zhou Yaqin gently patted Chen Qiaoyi's shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't worry about me. You should be careful in the village, especially with two children."

After Zhou Ziwen put away his luggage, he turned to his parents and said, "Mom and Dad, we're leaving. Take care of yourselves."

Father Zhou took a deep breath and said, "Go ahead and live a good life."

Zhou Ziwen took his luggage and set off with his two sisters and children. He found a tricycle outside and rushed to the train station.

When they arrived at the train station, Zhou Chaoyang had been waiting for a while.

When Zhou Chaoyang saw Zhou Ziwen and his family arrive, he hurried forward, took some of the luggage from Zhou Ziwen, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhou, you're finally here. I was worried that I would miss the train."

Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile: "Haha, you've been waiting for a long time! We were delayed for a while when we went out."

Zhou Chaoyang waved his hand and said, "Not long ago, I just got here a while ago."

He turned to look at Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying, and greeted them with a smile, "Hello, sister-in-law and sister Shiying. Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan, did you miss your uncle?"

Xiao Yueyue said sweetly: "I miss my uncle."

Xiao Xuanxuan waved his hands and hummed something, not knowing what he was saying.

Zhou Chaoyang smiled and touched the two children's heads.

At this time, Zhou Ziwen looked at the clock at the train station and said, "We still have plenty of time. Let's go to the waiting room and rest for a while."

Everyone arrived at the waiting room and found an empty seat to sit down. The waiting room was bustling with people and was very noisy.

Little Yueyue looked at the people around her curiously, her little eyes full of novelty.

Chen Qiaoyi took out some snacks and handed them to Yueyue and Xuanxuan, saying softly, "Hey, babies, have some snacks."

Xiao Yueyue took the snack, handed a piece to Xiao Xuanxuan, and said, "Brother, this is for you." Xiao Xuanxuan happily took it and put it in his mouth and chewed it.

Zhou Chaoyang looked at the two children and said to Zhou Ziwen with a smile, "Brother Zhou, these two children are getting cuter and cuter."

Zhou Ziwen smiled and nodded: "Yes, they are our happy pills!"

As the broadcast in the waiting room sounded, reminding people of the upcoming train information, Zhou Ziwen and his family began to pack up and prepare to check their tickets.

Zhou Chaoyang helped carry the luggage and the group walked towards the ticket gate.

After checking their tickets, they boarded the train smoothly and found their own carriage.

Sijiucheng is Zhou Chaoyang's home turf, so getting a few sleeper tickets is pretty easy. (End of this chapter)
