The villagers they met on the road looked at the family of three curiously. They were obviously from a big city, dressed fashionably and had outstanding temperament, especially Su Qingmeng, who looked like a movie star in sunglasses.

They walked all the way to the center of the village before someone asked uncertainly, "Is that Yao kid?"

Lin Xiuyao: "Fourth Aunt." Finally someone recognized him. It wasn't easy.

"It's really you," Fourth Aunt was surprised. "How long has it been since you came back?"

Others also spoke up, "Is it Baoguo's nephew?" "It's actually Lin Xiuyao, I didn't realize it."

Lin Xiuyao nodded to them and said, "Let's talk later. I'm going to my uncle's house."

When I passed by my third uncle's house, I saw that they had built a two-story building. "Your third uncle now lives in a villa." This building cost at least tens of thousands of yuan. Wouldn't it be nice to buy a house in the county or city with that money?

Lin Xiuyao: "It seems my cousin has made a lot of money." The door was locked. "No one is at Third Uncle's house. Let's go to Big Uncle's house."

The eldest aunt was feeding the chickens in the yard. When she saw Lin Xiuyao and the others walk into the yard, she said, "Oh, you're back. I figured you'd arrive today too."

"Great aunt/grandmother."

Lin Baoguo heard the noise and came out of the house, "Xiu Yao is back, come in quickly."

"Hey, uncle, you're still so energetic." Lin Xiuyao followed, "You're still strong even at an old age."

There was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy in the room. Su Qingmeng thought he looked familiar. Lin Baoguo said, "Gao Yun is on summer vacation. Come over and play." He turned to the boy and said, "This is your second uncle, second aunt, and cousin Kang Kang."

It turns out that he is the son of Lin Meimei and Guo Wei. No wonder Su Qingmeng thought he looked familiar. He looks like Guo Wei.

Guo Gaoyun stood awkwardly, calling out softly, "Second uncle, second aunt, cousin."

Lin Xiuyao nodded to him and spoke to his uncle, "I've seen a lot of changes in the village since I came back this time."

Lin Baoguo: "It's been more than a decade since the reform and opening up, and life has been getting better and better." He and Lin Xiuyao talked about major events in the village. Although they have always kept in touch, their communication over the phone is limited.

The eldest aunt came into the room with a thermos and poured water for the few people. "Qingmeng, why is your face so pale?"

Lin Xiuyao: "She's carsick. Aunt, please make something for my wife. She vomited her breakfast."

Aunt: "The west room is ready. Qingmeng, if you feel uncomfortable, just lie down. I'll go to the kitchen to make you a bowl of dumpling soup, okay?"

Su Qingmeng smiled embarrassedly, "Sorry to bother you, auntie."

"It's okay." She lifted the curtain and went out.

Kang Kang took a glass of water and handed it to Su Qingmeng, "Mom, are you still feeling bad?"

"Mom isn't feeling bad anymore," she said, drinking a glass of water. "I want to go to the bathroom. Kang Kang, are you going?"

Kang Kang nodded, and the two stood up to go out. Lin Xiuyao quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

Lin Baoguo shut up. This was a familiar feeling. This nephew was still a wife slave and hadn't changed at all.

Kang Kang said, "Dad, let's go to the toilet."

"Oh, go ahead," Lin Xiuyao turned around, "Uncle, go on."

Kang Kang looked at the small mud house and the simple squat toilet and said, "Mom, it stinks."

Su Qingmeng sighed, "It's like this in the countryside, just make do with it. When my mother was working in the countryside, the toilets there were much more dilapidated than this."

After using the toilet, the two went to wash their hands. Kang Kang looked confused. He didn't expect that this toilet was not only simple, but there were also many moving maggots in the pit. He got goosebumps.

Su Qingmeng silently watched his expression. The last time Kang Kang came back, he was still young and not so picky. But now it’s different. Su Qingmeng found that he had mild obsessive-compulsive disorder and mysophobia. He probably would have to hold it in when going to the toilet these days.

It was a good opportunity to let her son experience rural life and let him know how lucky he was. In later generations, there were still parents who sent their children to the Transformation Program just to let them experience poor life and cherish the present. She also wanted her son to broaden his horizons.

The aunt brought over the dumpling soup. There were tomatoes in the soup, which was sour. Su Qingmeng ate a large bowl. The aunt chatted with her, "How are you living in Shanghai? Tell me, you two, why did you have to travel so far?"

Su Qingmeng: "The climate in Shanghai is very different from ours, it's especially humid..."

Kang Kang strolled over to see the big rooster in the chicken coop. There were actually two big geese. Guo Gaoyuan came over and said, "Cousin."

He looked at Kang Kang with envy in his eyes. He had heard about his second uncle's family from his mother, and he could feel her jealousy towards his second aunt from her words.

Lin Meimei and Zheng Dayuan had a son after they got married. Since she had a younger son, she inevitably neglected Guo Gaoyuan, and Zheng Dayuan didn't care about this cheap son either.

Living in such an environment, Guo Gaoyuan became sensitive. Lin Meimei often left him to his grandparents. Although his second aunt was a nice person, he was living under someone else's roof after all. He was used to reading people's faces since he was a child and felt insecure.

He looked at Kang Kang's bright smile. He was completely different from himself. His parents were loving and he lived a good life. He was a happy child. Unlike him, his biological father didn't care about him and his mother had a younger son she loved more.

"Cousin?" Kang Kang waved his hand. "Cousin?" Is he distracted?

Guo Gaoyuan came back to his senses, "Cousin, do you want to go out and play?"

Kang Kang shook his head.

"Oh," Guo Gaoyuan didn't know what to say and fell silent again.

Kang Kang looked at him in confusion. This cousin was acting weird. He continued to observe the small animals and prepared to find paper and pen to draw later.

Inside the room, Lin Baoguo said, "You have sponsored quite a few children, and they are all very grateful to you."

Lin Xiuyao: "It's all my wife's royalties, so if you want to thank someone, thank her."

Lin Baoguo was helpless, "How about letting your wife give a speech at the school?"
