"Aunt, when did you arrive?"

"Today is the second day. Your uncle was in meetings all day yesterday!"

"ah.....?'

"How about we start living at home today?" Daya asked excitedly and expectantly.

Su Xia....

She looked at Chen Jianguo, seemingly reluctant.

Chen Jianguo understood. "Da Ya, you won't be staying this time. There's too much to do!"

Da Ya looked at Su Xia, who nodded, ultimately resigned to her fate.

"Mommy..." The little girl's soft, hesitant voice saved Su Xia.

Because she started to feel sorry for Daya, she realized that if it weren't for Daya's shout, she would definitely have agreed.

Whew...

"Yaya, Grandma...?"

Yaya....Grandma....Grandma....

Su Xia.....

Da Ya frowned!

Chen Jianguo burst out laughing, while Zhou Congjin wore a helpless and indulgent smile.

"Auntie, you've come all this way, but why did you bring milk powder and so much food? There's plenty here!" Daya said with concern.

Su Xia glanced at her and took them out one by one.

"The baby formula was bought by your dad..."

Daya's eyes widened in shock, "My dad...?"

"Yeah, knowing we were coming, they went to the county town to buy it themselves!"

Upon hearing this, Daya excitedly stroked the milk powder, her mind filled with the image of her father patiently waiting.

Su Xia pretended not to see it and took out a set of children's clothes. "This is a gift from your grandma to Yaya!"

Daya wiped her eyes, picked up the clothes, and after gesturing to them, excitedly put them on Yaya.

Then I saw a girl wearing clothes that were obviously too big.

Blinking her big eyes, she looked at the adults with a bewildered expression.

Pfft...

The first to burst out laughing was Su Xia, then Chen Jianguo, and finally Da Ya.

He just burst out laughing...

"Haha... Auntie, the clothes Grandma made are still the same, not a bit different!"

Su Xia shook her head. "We can't change our habits of so many years."

Zhou Congjin said, "All"

They're all old-fashioned and strange, but they're good enough to wear for three years!

"You haven't said enough. You can wear this until you're 5!" Chen Jianguo didn't give his mother any face at all.

Upon hearing this, Su Xia took out her belongings again to avoid embarrassing Chen's mother.

"These shoes were a gift from your mother. They're quite rare, and I never expected she wouldn't ask you for money!" Su Xia added.

Chen Jianguo looked awkwardly at Zhou Congjin, who didn't care. Anyway, his mother wouldn't ask for money for more than a day or two.

Da Ya took the shoes and immediately felt the rough stitching and the worn-out fabric. It was clear that old fabric had been used.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Daya said, putting the shoes on the other side. As for the word "mother," she hadn't called her that in a long time.

Su Xia didn't try to persuade him, for she didn't know his suffering, and she shouldn't try to persuade him.

Then she took out her own things, all of which were things the little girl didn't wear anymore.

"These are all wearable now, I'll send them to you later!"

Daya was overjoyed. All of the little girl's things were of good quality. After touching each one, she put them aside. These few items were enough for Daya to wear for a year.

Zhou Congjin, standing to the side, was delighted; of course she was happy that her daughter was being cared for.

The rest are the fruits and candies that shocked the auntie earlier.

"Cong Jin, is the house you mentioned still available?" Su Xia was concerned about this.

Zhou Congjin watched his wife go about her other business and then began to introduce the topic.

However, he lowered his voice, "Many people are coming back now, and they're all scared, so there are more people taking action!"

Su Xia's guess was indeed true. It's now 72 years, and people are gradually returning.

Chen Jianguo had heard about this, but his county was too small to notice.

"Auntie, I have a friend who specializes in this. I'll take you to find it in a bit!"

Su Xia nodded, "Let's go now!"

Zhou Congjin... in such a hurry? I thought we'd go after dinner.

Su Xia was speechless, thinking they had come to play!

"Auntie, I'll definitely be back soon!" Daya confirmed again.

Su Xia nodded, "Definitely. I'll come back as soon as I'm done watching. You can prepare dinner at home; I'll definitely be hungry by then!"

Da Ya nodded vigorously, and only looked away after Su Xia and the others had walked quite a distance.

“Spring Girl…”

Da Ya's lips twitched. It was true that whenever there was any disturbance at home, this auntie would come running, just like a dog with a keen sense of smell.

The expert didn't notice Da Ya's disgust, but excitedly asked, "Was that really your relative?"

Upon hearing this, Daya felt a surge of pride.

"Yes, my uncle and aunt came to Beijing on a business trip and made a special trip to see me!"

Auntie... it's better to just guess for fun. At this moment, she felt like she had always thought of a country bumpkin from a small place, but suddenly discovered that this small place was rich and powerful, like a young lady from a wealthy family.

"Auntie, I have to go inside and check on the children!"

"Oh...go in!"

As soon as the door closed, the auntie immediately dashed to another house to begin her mission of spreading the word.

Su Xia and Chen Jianguo followed Zhou Congjin and soon arrived at a courtyard. Good heavens...

Another courtyard house! Su Xia's eyes widened in shock; it was indeed magnificent.

After I came in... um...

It's no different from a refugee's home.

No more men came out; they were about the same age as Zhou Congjin.

"Gangzi, over here!"

"Hey, Cong Jin, what brings you here today?" He spoke with a strong local accent.

After a brief exchange of whispers, the two men quickly approached. "Gangzi, these are my wife's uncle and aunt!"

Gangzi chuckled, looking like a fool, but Su Xia dared not believe him.

"Hello, Gangzi Bizhi!"

"Uncle and Aunt, just give me Gangzi!"

Chen Jianguo said, "Be cautious, let's see first!"

"Okay, let's go there now!"

Half an hour later, the group of four arrived at a courtyard with a 2-meter-high wall and a red wooden door.

"Uncle and Aunt, this house isn't big, just a small courtyard, but don't worry, it's a very nice house!"

Once inside, Su Xia discovered that it was indeed quite nice, with blue brick floors, tiled roofs, three main rooms, and three rooms each in the east and west wings.

"The owner of this house wants to move out of town, so the house is urgently needed. Minimum price is 1200! Must have food stamps; 100 food stamps can be used as 100 yuan."

Su Xia gasped, but didn't show it. This kind of house would cost at most 700 in the county town, but here it was twice as much.

Although the house looks nice on the outside, once you go inside, you'll find it's badly damaged and needs to be renovated before anyone can live in it!

It was Zhou Congjin's first time meeting with her uncle and his wife, and she didn't know what it meant, but she felt that the chances of buying it were slim.

Gangzi, who was standing nearby, wondered why a couple from a small county would buy a house here.

Then, Chen Jianguo and Su Xia taught the two a lesson in one day.

"Wife, what do you think?" Chen Jianguo was satisfied with the house, but his wife had the final say.

Su Xia thought about it and, based on her general impression from the visit, realized that this house would be quite valuable in the future.

Just as Zhou Congjin was distracted and chatting.

The two women came over and immediately said, "Congjin, we're buying this house. Ask Gangzi about the transaction details."

Zhou Congjin was dumbfounded...

Gangzi, standing nearby, immediately looked at his brother and said, "Didn't you say your uncles wouldn't come over to see us?"

Zhou Congjin blinked. "How should I know?"

Finally, Su Xia said, "Gangzi, ask the landlord if I only have 50 food coupons here, is that okay?"

Gangzi seemed dazed, then slowly nodded. "...Okay, but only with national food coupons?"

"What haven't I seen in my life? This is nothing. I touch my forehead. Yes, it's just wet, not sweaty."
