As the children's holidays ended, they returned to their schools to begin the new semester. After the children left, Gu Yanxiao and Xia Liang embarked on another RV road trip. This time, they decided to revisit the place where Xia Liang grew up, the small village filled with childhood memories.

Xia Liang was filled with anticipation and emotion for this trip. She wanted to set foot on that familiar land again and relive those beautiful memories. Gu Yanxiao, on the other hand, was full of curiosity about the trip. He wanted to see with his own eyes the place where his wife had once lived and experience the local customs and culture.

Two RVs slowly drove out of the house, heading towards Xia Liang's hometown. Along the way, Xia Liang told Gu Yanxiao stories of her childhood, memories of fields, streams, and old locust trees. Gu Yanxiao listened with great interest, his heart filled with longing for that place.

When they finally arrived at the small village, Xia Liang felt an indescribable emotion. She saw those familiar sights—the old houses, the old well, and the old trees that had accompanied her as she grew up. She led Gu Yanxiao through every corner of the village, introducing him to her childhood playmates and the stories of the past.

Gu Yanxiao was deeply attracted by the tranquility and beauty of the small village. He and Xia Liang visited the local market, tasted the authentic local food, and learned about the local customs. They also visited Xia Liang's relatives and old neighbors, chatted with them warmly, and shared their life experiences.

That evening, Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao set up a simple tent next to the RV. They sat together under the tent, gazing at the starry sky, reminiscing about the past and planning for the future. Xia Liang felt a deep sense of contentment and happiness. She knew that no matter where she went, the memories of her hometown and Gu Yanxiao's companionship would always be her most precious treasures.

This trip back to their hometown not only allowed Xia Liang to relive the joys of her childhood, but also gave Gu Yanxiao a deeper understanding of his wife's past. Their relationship deepened during the trip, and their lives became richer and more colorful because of it.

Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao's lives have become more free and fulfilling thanks to their RV road trips. Their story is a hymn to home, love, and life. They show us through their experiences that life is a journey, full of new possibilities and opportunities every day. As long as we experience it with our hearts and nurture it with love, life will reward us with endless surprises and joy. Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao's story is a testament to their relentless pursuit and enjoyment of a beautiful life, and a profound experience of its richness and diversity.

Xia Liang stood in that once-familiar town, the scene before her eyes vastly different from what she remembered. The wheels of time rolled forward, bringing earth-shattering changes. Skyscrapers replaced low-rise houses, wide roads replaced the muddy paths of the past, and everything in the town seemed so new and vibrant.

A complex mix of emotions welled up in Xia Liang's heart. She felt proud of the development and changes in her hometown, yet also nostalgic for the bygone days. She walked slowly down the streets of the town, trying to find traces of her childhood in every corner.

Gu Yanxiao stayed by Xia Liang's side, sensing the turmoil in her heart. He gently held her hand, offering her comfort and support. Together, they visited the town's new landmarks and tried to find the places Xia Liang had mentioned before.

Xia Liang pointed to a newly built square and recalled, "This used to be a field where my friends and I often played hide-and-seek and chased each other." Her words contained both reminiscence of the good old days and acceptance and appreciation of the changes.

They strolled through the town's streets, and Xia Liang would occasionally tell Gu Yanxiao stories related to the old buildings and streets. Although many of the buildings no longer existed, they seemed to come back to life in Xia Liang's narration.

Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao also visited some of the old shops in the town. Although many shops had been renovated, some traditional crafts and local snacks had been preserved. As Xia Liang tasted these familiar flavors, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

On the edge of the town, Xia Liang found the little river she had crossed countless times before. The water was still clear, and the willows on the banks still swayed gently in the wind. Xia Liang stood by the river, closed her eyes, and let her mind travel back to that carefree childhood.

This trip back to her hometown made Xia Liang deeply aware of the power of time and the inevitability of change. She knew that although the external world was constantly changing, the memories and emotions in her heart were eternal. She was grateful for Gu Yanxiao's companionship and for the rich experiences life had given her.

Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao's trip had no fixed schedule; they followed their hearts, wandering along the path of Xia Liang's memories. Both were filled with curiosity about the unknown and nostalgia for the past, making this trip full of ease and freedom.

Whenever they find a scenic spot, they stop their RV and stay there for a few days. They pitch their tents on the grass by the lake and enjoy the tranquility of the surrounding scenery; or they find a quiet corner in a small town in the valley to experience the local life.

During their stay, Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao will participate in local daily activities. They will attend markets with the local residents, buy fresh produce, and learn to cook authentic dishes. In the evenings, they will also dance with the residents in the square, experiencing that simple joy.

Xia Liang particularly enjoys finding inspiration in these places; she takes out her easel and uses her paintbrush to record the beautiful scenery before her. Gu Yanxiao, on the other hand, likes to capture those beautiful moments with his camera. They create and share together, making art an integral part of their travels.

During their trip, Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao would also arrange some special days, such as holding a small celebration at Xia Liang's favorite place from childhood, or spending their wedding anniversary in a meaningful location. These small rituals made their trip more emotional and memorable.

At night, as darkness falls, they sit on the folding chairs outside the RV, gazing at the starry sky and sharing their feelings and thoughts. They talk about Xia Liang's childhood and Gu Yanxiao's stories from his youth, and these exchanges deepen their bond.

On this trip, Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao didn't have a specific destination. They enjoyed the journey itself, the joy of exploring the unknown, and the sweetness of experiencing every moment together. They knew that life is a journey, and they were willing to stay on the road, appreciating the scenery along the way and creating more beautiful memories together.
