There was still some distance between the courtyard gate and the house door, and Wu Xiaoying did not see Xiang Nuan's face clearly. It was not until the two were two or three meters apart that she suddenly realized that it was Xiang Nuan.

She subconsciously exclaimed, "Miss?!"

"Auntie Wu, long time no see."

Maybe the original owner's feelings were still there, Xiang Nuan's eyes were wet when she heard the sincere voice of "young lady".

Wu Xiaoying quickly stepped forward and held her shoulders. She looked at her carefully and noticed the wound on her forehead. "How did you get here? Why are you here?"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Yan Mancang beside her in surprise, "Didn't you say you were going to the commune to attend a meeting to pick up the educated youth from the city?"

After saying this, she was surprised again, "Could it be that the young lady is an educated youth?"

Xiang Nuan nodded, "Yes, our school is closed now, so I signed up to go to the countryside. Aunt Wu, don't call me Miss anymore, just call me Nuan Nuan."

Yan Mancang never expected that this educated youth from the city was actually an old friend of his wife. He knew that when his wife was young, she worked for a wealthy family in Beijing.

"Her mother, bring the child into the house and talk."

These two people keep calling each other "Miss" and "Auntie Wu" at the same time, which is not good if others hear them.

"Yes, let's talk inside. Xiao... Nuan Nuan, come in quickly. I just prepared the meal. Let's talk while we eat."

As Wu Xiaoying spoke, she took Xiang Nuan's hand and went into the house, and Yan Mancang followed behind to help with the luggage.

"Are you tired after the long ride? I'll get you some water so you can wash your face first."

Wu Xiaoying brought the person into the house and busied herself with serving tea and water. Xiang Nuan washed her hands and face and was pulled onto the kang again.

"I didn't know it was you who was coming. If I had known, I would have gone to get some meat. Look at your skinny face. Just make do with this meal. I'll make you your favorite egg custard tonight. Tomorrow I'll go get some more meat to supplement your diet."

Xiang Nuan smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Aunt Wu, you don't have to work hard, these are good enough. I haven't eaten the food you cooked for many years, and it smells delicious."

Wu Xiaoying felt sad when she saw Xiang Nuan, who was so well-behaved and sensible. She knew a lot about the current situation and it seemed that the Xiang family was doomed.

"Where's Shuangxi? He hasn't come back yet after dinner."

Yan Mancang put down his things and asked a question when he didn't see his daughter.

Wu Xiaoying replied, "Who knows where he's going crazy again, go out and shout."

"Okay, you guys eat first, I'll go out and look for it."

After Yan Mancang finished speaking, he walked out with his hands behind his back.

Wu Xiaoying looked at Xiang Nuan with a smile, "Let's eat first, then have a good sleep. You can live at home from now on. With Aunt Wu here, no one will dare to bully you!"

"Let's wait for the captain to come back together."

She is now living under someone else's roof and still knows the most basic manners.

"It's okay, don't worry about them, they will be back soon."

Xiang Nuan insisted, "Wait a minute, I'm not hungry either."

Wu Xiaoying laughed, "You have been sensible since you were young. How is your family doing now?"

Xiang Nuan's nose was sore, and she said with a pursed mouth, "Auntie Wu, I'm all alone now. You should have heard about the situation outside. My family background is not good. My father abandoned me and took my stepmother and brother to sneak to Hong Kong City. He was caught the next day and sent to the northwest for reform.

After I found out, I put an advertisement in the newspaper to sever ties with them and signed up to go to the countryside. Before I came, our house was robbed and everything was stolen overnight. "
