As the Snake King's abilities increased, He Tiantian benefited greatly.
Once home, He Tiantian took a nap and felt refreshed!
The best time to plan for the year is in spring, and the best time to plan for the day is in the morning!
Secretary Qi began to arrange for people to work, clearing weeds from the wheat fields and composting manure for fertilizer.
He Tiantian went to work and study in the livestock team, and her days were fulfilling and meaningful.
Before we knew it, it was March. The trees on the mountain sprouted tender leaves, and the grass grew to a height of more than ten centimeters, which was earlier than usual.
One hundred peach trees in the orchard are in full bloom.
A gentle breeze carries the fragrance of peach blossoms!
Wang Shuping brought a mat from home and used it to catch the falling peach blossoms.
These peach blossoms can be used to make peach blossom wine, peach blossom pastries, or peach blossom-scented sachets to place in the house, making it smell wonderful.
"Old He, have you noticed that the peach trees are blooming earlier this year?" Wang Shuping walked around the peach orchard, observing the flowering situation of the peach trees.
He Jingyu smiled and said, "I saw it, but I checked it and the peach tree is in good condition. It should be fine. Look at the branches, leaves, and flowers; they are all better than when it was in Nanshi."
"Hmm, it seems we chose the right place," Wang Shuping said with a smile, squinting as she looked up at the peach trees.
In the peach grove, under the peach trees, petals fluttered down, and soft sunlight fell on Wang Shuping's face.
He Jingyu inadvertently noticed his wife's gentle beauty; he hadn't really looked at her properly in a long time.
His wife had wrinkles around her eyes, and her skin wasn't as radiant as before, but the gentle and graceful temperament that time had bestowed upon her only made him more attracted to her.
With mud on his hands, He Jingyu could only lean forward and kiss his wife's left cheek.
"Ah!" Wang Shuping was stunned, and her face involuntarily turned red with embarrassment.
The peach blossoms and the maiden's face complemented each other beautifully!
The two, who had not seen each other for a long time, strolled through the beautiful peach blossom forest, whispering softly, their affection deep and tender.
When He Tiantian returned home for lunch, she saw her parents, who were full of affection for her.
Seeing her loving parents, He Tiantian thought of Huo Yingjie, who was far away.
Grandma Qi has been in great shape; she looks radiant!
Before, her waiting was a hopeless wait!
She persevered because she cherished the memories of the past, and also because of her resilience.
Now her wait has come to an end!
With no burdens in her heart, the strong-willed Grandma Qi was like a withered tree coming back to life, full of vitality.
He Tiantian's learning progressed rapidly; her vocabulary had reached three thousand words, and she could already recite those books.
With Professor Wang present, they conversed in English. If there were any mistakes, Professor Wang would point them out on the spot, and He Tiantian would immediately correct them.
Even now that she's in the United States, He Tiantian is already able to communicate with Americans on her own.
On April 18th, three people came to Grandma Qi's house.
One of them is Huo Yingjun.
Although Huo Yingjun had seen He Tiantian's photos and knew she was very beautiful, he was still quite amazed when he saw her in person.
"Hello, I'm Huo Yingjun, Huo Yingjie's cousin." Huo Yingjun introduced himself. "You must be Uncle He and Aunt Wang."
Huo Yingjun and Huo Yingjie bear a resemblance, and Huo Yingjun produced a photo of himself and Huo Yingjie together, which proves that what he said is true.
He Jingyu smiled and said, "Yes, my name is He Jingyu! What brings you here?"
Although Huo Yingjie had briefly mentioned it to them during the Chinese New Year, it wasn't official, so He Jingyu didn't elaborate.
"It concerns Grandma Qi, let's talk inside," Huo Yingjun said, knowing that there would be too many people around outside and the news might leak out.
"Alright, come inside and have a seat," He Jingyu said with a smile.
Seeing this, Grandma Qi guessed that she wanted to take her to see her son, and she kept smiling.
Grandma Qi was extremely relieved to know that her son was alive and well.
Now I can go see my son, and I can die without regrets!
Huo Yingjun explained the purpose of his visit to Grandma Qi and also pointed out the purpose of the trip.
"Okay, I'll cooperate with your work," Grandma Qi said. "I'm in good health, I can leave whenever I want!"
“We need to take a train to Guangzhou first, then a ferry to Hong Kong, where there are direct flights to the United States,” Huo Yingjie said. “The journey will be bumpy and tiring, so we should go to the hospital for a full check-up first.”
Grandma Qi knew she was in good health, but the fastest mode of transportation she had ever taken in her life was the train; she had never been on an airplane.
It would be good to get a check-up at the hospital!
“Okay, we’ll do as you say,” said Grandma Qi. “I’m an old woman with bound feet, and I want to take my goddaughter with me on the way so we can look after each other.”
Huo Yingjun looked at He Tiantian and nodded, "Okay! Grandma Qi, when can we set off?"
"I've already made preparations on my end, it's up to you," Grandma Qi said, a hint of excitement in her voice.
"I'm sorry, time is a bit tight. We need to rest here for the night and set off early tomorrow morning," Huo Yingjun said. If Grandma Qi's health is not good, she will need to recuperate for a while.
"Okay!" Grandma Qi agreed.
That night, Huo Yingjun stayed at Grandma Qi's house.
Huo Yingjun knew that Old Man Qi was in Qi Family Village, so he went to visit him under the cover of night.
Looking at Huo Yingjun and then at Huo Yingjie, Old Man Qi couldn't help but feel envious. Brother Huo not only has two good sons, but also two good grandsons!
"This time, make sure your third sister-in-law and Tianya are safe on the road," Old Man Qi instructed. If possible, he wanted to go along.
However, his identity is very sensitive. Even if the people here allow him to go, the Americans would not dare to let him enter the United States.
They killed so many American soldiers during the Korean War; they were enemies of the Americans.
“I know, Grandpa Qi,” Huo Yingjun said. “Mr. Qi also asked me to give you my regards and thank you for taking care of his mother.”
"We're all family, it's nothing," Old Man Qi said. Since it involved more confidential information, he didn't press further.
However, given the current situation, the thawing with the United States should be a close call without any major incidents.
In the evening, He Tiantian packed her luggage, including a lot of clothes.
Seeing this, Huo Yingjun smiled and said, "Sweetie, don't bring too many clothes. We'll buy some clothes for you and Grandma Qi when we transit in Hong Kong."
He Tiantian thought about it and agreed. Their clothes were a bit outdated, and she smiled, "Hearing you say that, I realized that our clothes are very different from those in America, and they really aren't suitable to bring. Then I'll leave it to you, handsome brother."
Huo Yingjun smiled and said, "No need to thank me!" (To be continued.)
