Mao Xiaomin's words made Shi Wan's nose sting with tears and also woke her up. It felt like there was a wad of cotton stuck in her throat, making her choke and unable to speak for a moment.
Mao Xiaomin sighed and gently hugged Shi Wan: "I know, our Wan has always been intelligent."
Perhaps due to the effects of pregnancy hormones, Shi Wan is more emotional and sentimental than before.
"Alright, it's good that you've figured it out. Go to sleep!" Mao Xiaomin gently and kindly ruffled Shi Wan's hair, turned around, and walked steadily toward the door.
Shi Wan did not immediately call Grandma Sikong to try to ease the tension, but instead chose to let things take their course.
One year later.
The ancient town of Niwan is bustling and lively, attracting throngs of tourists. The shops lining the streets are packed with customers.
It was late, and my maternity leave was almost over. I went out to buy some essentials I usually need for work.
Looking at the tourists coming and going on the street, Shi Wan's eyebrows relaxed and a smile appeared on her lips.
The changes in Niwan Village over the past year have been truly remarkable, changing every day. Not only has a bustling ancient town been built, but the villagers' houses have also been renovated. As the saying goes, "those who live by the mountains live off the mountains, and those who live by the water live off the water," and the local environment shapes its people.

The entire village has been completely transformed; it's nothing like the dilapidated place it was a year ago.
Niwan Village has also begun to see a surge of new residents, with many retirees choosing to spend their retirement there because of its climate.
Moreover, Niwan Village has become the top choice for wealthy people or white-collar workers to take a vacation. Just 20 meters away, there is a very luxurious car. I don't know much about cars and I can't even name the brand.
Anyway, it's incredibly luxurious, the car owner seems to be afraid that others won't know he's rich.
As evening fell, Shi Wan strolled slowly through the ancient town, happily admiring her hometown.
Suddenly, a dark figure appeared out of nowhere and crashed into Shi Wan, causing her to stumble back two steps before regaining her balance.
There were three or five of them, and they didn't look like good people.
Before Shi Wan could even speak, the other person preemptively accused him: "Hey, what's wrong with you? Can't you watch where you're going?!"
