Chu Yu: "In the new year, I hope my elders are healthy, I hope my sister Mianmian is happy, and I hope I grow up quickly."

"You kid, do you hope your uncle will get old faster?"

Uncle Chu San reached out and rubbed his beloved nephew's head.

Knowing what his precious nephew was thinking, Third Master Chu smiled and continued, "With your Third Uncle here, the people from the Second and Third Houses can't do anything to our First House. Your most important task now is to study hard, stay healthy, and grow up happily. Your Third Uncle will protect you from all the storms."

Chu Yu looked at his third uncle.

Seeing a few barely noticeable white hairs among his uncle's black hair, his eyes suddenly became sore.

My third uncle already has white hair before he’s even thirty, and it’s all because he worries too much and works too hard.

He must study hard, grow up as quickly as possible, and help his uncle share some of the burden.

"Uncle San, I'm already fourteen years old. Stop touching my head like you did when we were little."

Chu Yu brushed away Mr. Chu Sanye's hand and stubbornly refused to let himself cry.

Good days always pass quickly.

In a blink of an eye, it is already the sixth day of the first lunar month.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, all factories, restaurants, and department stores under the name of the Chu family's eldest branch will resume work and production.

As the head of the first house, Mr. Chu Sanye had to go back to hold a meeting to resume work and production.

Early in the morning on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Mei Cuiping and Chen Ju prepared a sumptuous farewell banquet.

Mei Cuiping also packed a lot of local specialties of Xiushui County, such as bacon, smoked sausage, and kimchi, filling up the trunk of the Volga car.

After breakfast, the group sent Chu Huaijing to the village entrance.

"Mom, Uncle Yun, Aunt Mei, Brother Yongcheng, and my sister-in-law, it's cold, so just send her here."

Seeing her son standing in front of the car and waving at her, Mrs. Chu finally couldn't help but shed tears. She choked up and said to her son: "Huai Jing, when you return to Yucheng, you must be careful and cautious in everything you do, and take good care of yourself."

"Mom, I'm an unfilial child. I can't be with you all the time."

Chu Huaijing fell to his knees in the snow.

Old Madam Chu hurried forward to help her son up.

"Jing'er, what are you doing?"

Chu Huaijing: "It's because of my son's incompetence that I sent you to such a faraway place to recuperate."

Chu Yu, who was standing next to Yun Mian, clenched his fists at some point. His face, which was usually serious and mature, now frowned, becoming even more serious and mature.

One day, he will make those who harmed his parents, third uncle and grandmother pay a heavy price.

"Brother Chu, don't be afraid. Uncle Chu will be worried if he knows you are like this."

Chu Yu suddenly felt a warmth on his hand. He looked down and saw a pair of small fleshy hands holding his clenched fist.

"Brother Chu, I will be by your side. I, my grandparents, my parents, and Brother Xiaohu will all be by your side."

As the babyish words reached his ears, Chu Yu's restless heart slowly calmed down.

Chu Yu raised his gaze and met those eyes that seemed to be filled with stars. His heart was instantly warmed by the concern in the little girl's eyes.

Sister Mianmian, thank you.

You are my little angel.

Meeting you is the happiest thing that has happened to me in my life for more than ten years.

Chu Yu was talking in his heart, looking at Yun Mian and smiling warmly. He then held Yun Mian's little hand and put it in his pocket.

Yunmian: “…”

"Uncle San, don't worry and go back. I'm here. I will take good care of grandma."

Chu Yu was revived with full health, and looked towards Mr. Chu Sanye with a bright look.

"We are here, we will take good care of Sister Rumeng, Huai Jing, you can go back without worry."

Mei Cuiping walked over to Old Madam Chu and supported her.

"Next year, you are welcome to come to Xiushui Village to celebrate the Spring Festival again."

"Aunt Mei, I'll leave my mother to you and Uncle Yun."

Chu Huaijing took a step back and bowed deeply to Mei Cuiping and her husband.

"Xiushui Village is great, with beautiful scenery and even better people. I will definitely come to Xiushui Village again next Spring Festival."

For the next three years, Chu Huaijing went to Xiushui Village to accompany Old Madam Chu and Chu Yu to celebrate the Spring Festival.

Time passed quietly, day after day, year after year, and before they knew it, this was the fourth year that Mrs. Chu and her grandson had been staying in Xiushui Village.

The water in Xiushui Village nourishes people, the scenery in Xiushui Village is pleasant, and the people in Xiushui Village are warm. Old Madam Chu has been recuperating here for four years. Not only have her legs completely recovered and she can move freely, but she also looks much younger and more energetic than when she came here four years ago.

Because Old Madam Chu was in good spirits and good health living here, Chu Huaijing simply let his old mother continue to stay in Xiushui Village to recuperate.

It just so happened that Lu Feng couldn't live without Gao Xinlan, and his nephew couldn't live without Mianmian.

"Grandma, you're looking for my third aunt in the photos again."

A mature voice of a young man came into the main hall of the community house. Old Lady Chu, who was sitting in the main hall, wearing reading glasses and carefully looking through photos to choose a wife, looked up and saw a handsome young man in a white sports suit striding in. She smiled so hard that wrinkles appeared on her face.

The young man was none other than Chu Yu.

In four years, the boy grew a lot taller.

When he first arrived in Xiushui Village, the boy was only a head taller than Yunmian. Now, the boy is 1.8 meters tall, and Yunmian, who is 1.5 meters tall, just reaches the boy's chest.

After four years of growth, the boy not only grew taller, but his temperament also underwent a significant transformation.

Compared with four years ago, the boy has become much more mature and stable. Of course, his personality is also colder than four years ago, and his mouth is more sharp-tongued. Therefore, Yun Mian and Wang Xiaohu gave him the nickname "King of the Poisonous Mouth" without hesitation.

Chu Yu walked to the side of Old Madam Chu, pulled a wooden chair and sat down beside her, watching her flipping through the photos one by one.

"Grandma, don't look at the photos recommended by these matchmaking agencies. This one is just a big-breasted, brainless vase, and this one is just a vain woman. Uncle San won't like them..."

Before Chu Yu could finish his words, he was hit by Old Madam Chu.

Old Madam Chu glared at him unhappily.

"You're just a little kid, don't you know what big breasts mean, no brains, and vanity? Your third uncle is so busy working that he even forgets to eat. If I don't help him, he'll never get married in his lifetime."

Chu Yu touched the place where he was hit by his grandmother.

"Grandma, this is a new society. Two people can only be happy together if they have a foundation of love. Look at Uncle Lu and Uncle Yun, they found their own families. They are very happy now. You can't rush into other things just because your third uncle hasn't gotten married."

When Yun Yongcheng and Lu Feng were mentioned, Madam Chu became even more anxious.

"Your Uncle Lu and Uncle Yun are younger than your Third Uncle. Their children are already three years old. Look at your Third Uncle, he's already in his thirties and doesn't even have a partner. It really makes me so angry."
