Xu Hongxia touched her face, thinking to herself: Was her expression that obvious?
However, she denied it, saying, "No, I've been quite happy the whole time, hahaha."
Seeing that she was unwilling to talk, Zhang Yumei did not force her and continued washing the vegetables.
Not long after Fang Hui and his group arrived, Huang Jiancai and his group also arrived.
They originally planned to come and help out early in the morning, but Huang Jianmin was called back by Manager Gao at the last minute.
They had no choice but to wait until he finished his work before coming over together.
Fortunately, Grandpa Huang and his family arrived early yesterday, and the Xu family also came to help early in the morning, otherwise we would have been in a real mess.
After Huang Jiancai sat down, he began to look around constantly, as if he were looking for someone.
After a while, Huang Jiancai asked, "Second Aunt, is Dundun in the room? Why can't I see him?"
He looked several times, but there was only one little girl in the whole yard, and he didn't even see a shadow of Dundun.
“Jianjun took Dundun with him to pick up his bride, they should be back soon.”
After putting away her things, Chen Zhaodi and Zhang Yumei started setting the table.
In the kitchen, Grandma Huang and Wang Yingxue had almost finished cooking the dishes and were now waiting for Huang Jianjun and the others to return.
At the family compound, Chen Zhaodi didn't invite too many people, only a few of those she was close to.
For example, Aunt Feng and Aunt Wang.
When Ma Xiulan, who also lived in the family compound, learned that Huang Jianjun was getting married today and had even managed to borrow a car to pick up the bride, she nearly ground her back teeth to powder.
Ma Xiulan was still cursing in her heart: It's all Chen Ermei's fault for being so useless! She thought she had snagged a rich husband, but who knew he was all looks and no substance!
Meanwhile, Chen Ermei, far away in Xujia Village, finally saw a glimmer of hope after enduring six months of hardship.
"Da Ya! Come here and read this aloud. See what your dad wrote for us!"
Lin Chunyan held a letter in her hand and shouted excitedly.
Xu Daya was chopping radishes in the kitchen when she heard that Xu Weimin had sent them a letter. She immediately dropped the knife and rushed out.
"Let me see!"
Xu Daya excitedly took the letter, opened it quickly, and read it at a glance. She was so excited that she trembled.
"Mom! Dad said he knows about my brother and grandpa's passing. He said he met a very powerful person in the Northwest."
"He's not suffering much over there. Dad even said he'll make Xu Weiguo and his family pay the price!"
After hearing this, Lin Chunyan squatted down, covered her mouth, and began to sob loudly and softly.
She finally got her wish. Ever since Xu Jingui's death, Lin Chunyan had wanted Xu Weiguo and Xu Junhui to pay with their lives every single day.
However, their family now consists of only the elderly, women, and children, and Xu Weiguo's family holds a very high position in Xujia Village.
That's why I haven't retaliated.
After catching her breath, Lin Chunyan asked Xu Daya again, "Daya, is this true? Did your dad really say he would make them pay the price?"
Xu Daya nodded heavily: "Yes! Dad also wrote a piece of paper, and he told us to find some time to take this piece of paper with us."
"Go to the address above and find a guy called 'Black Boss.' Dad said he's already made the arrangements. All we need to do is go and tell Black Boss what kind of fate we want for them."
"Good, good, good! Heaven has eyes! I knew your dad was no ordinary man; no matter where he went, he would rise again!"
Lin Chunyan pulled Xu Dabao and Xu Xiaobao over and said, "Dabao, Xiaobao, we'll be able to avenge Dad and Great-Grandpa soon. Aren't you happy?"
Seeing Lin Chunyan's somewhat deranged expression, Xu Xiaobao was terrified and began to hide behind Xu Dabao.
Xu Dabao was also scared, but over the past six months, he had gradually gotten used to the abnormal behavior of Lin Chunyan and Grandma Xu every now and then.
He was also afraid that if he and Xu Xiaobao didn't respond to Lin Chunyan, she would go crazy, so he tugged at Xu Xiaobao's hand.
The two of them answered tremblingly, "Happy."
After hearing the satisfactory answer, Lin Chunyan let them go: "I'm glad you're happy. I knew Jin Gui hadn't spoiled you for nothing."
"Alright, go have fun."
After receiving confirmation, Xu Dabao immediately pulled Xu Xiaobao out.
After the two brothers ran to the edge of the bamboo forest, Xu Xiaobao hugged Xu Dabao and said fearfully, "Brother, Xiaobao is scared. Xiaobao misses Daddy so much~ Waaah~"
Xu Dabao patted Xu Xiaobao skillfully, and despite being scared himself, he bravely comforted his younger brother, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid~"
"Brother will always be with you, Xiaobao. Remember, you must never leave your brother's side, okay?"
"Okay, Xiao Bao got it."
Although Xu Dabao was only six years old, he was forced to become sensible after Xu Jingui's death.
At first, he didn't understand what "shooting with a gun" meant, until later when he returned to Xujia Village and some children pointed at them.
He then understood that Xu Jingui had done something wrong and was being punished; they would never see him again.
Then, Xu Dabao discovered that everyone in his family was becoming increasingly strange.
Grandma Xu would hide in her room every day and call out the names of Xu Jingui and Grandpa Xu to the things in the room.
Lin Chunyan was sometimes lucid and sometimes delirious. When she was lucid, she would teach Xu Dabao and Xu Xiaobao that the two brothers should support each other.
When you grow up, stay away from Xu Weiguo's family, because they are not to be trifled with. If a conflict breaks out, they will get hurt.
But when he was delirious, he would often say to them, "Da Bao, Xiao Bao, you must remember, your father was killed by Xu Weiguo."
"When you grow up, you must avenge your father!"
Chen Ermei's behavior wasn't abnormal, but Xu Dabao felt that the way she looked at the two brothers was a bit off.
He sensed a dangerous aura emanating from Chen Ermei, so Xu Dabao forbade Xu Xiaobao from getting close to Chen Ermei or spending time alone with her.
The only normal person in the family is probably Xu Daya.
But after returning to the village, she had to go to the fields almost every day to earn work points, and didn't have much time or energy to take care of Xu Dabao and the others.
So for the past six months, Xu Dabao has been taking care of himself while also taking care of Xu Xiaobao.
Xu Dabao recalled what he had just heard at home, and looked at Village Chief Xu, who was busy not far away, feeling somewhat conflicted.
He knew that Lin Chunyan and her group were wrong. Although he didn't quite understand what they were saying, he vaguely knew that they had contacted Xu Weimin and were planning to harm Xu Weiguo.
However, Xu Dabao felt that Lin Chunyan was his real grandmother, and if he told on her, he would be letting Lin Chunyan and the others down.
Xu Dabao's eyes were full of struggle; he didn't know what to choose.
