After packing up their things, Su Mianmian and the others had nothing to do, so they simply prepared to return to Beijing early.
As for their tickets, there was no need to worry at all. Su Qingcheng had already asked someone to buy them for them, and they were sleeper berths.
Before leaving, Su Mianmian called Aunt Yang and her family over to have dinner together.
Thinking of the gray rabbit raised by Xiao Ayan, Su Mianmian's eyes lit up and she thought of several delicious rabbit dishes.
With this idea in mind, Su Mianmian took action directly, but was discovered by Xiao Ayan.
He cried and refused to let Su Mianmian kill it and eat its meat.
Su Mianmian had no choice but to let Qin Huaichuan take A Yan out to play. When he came back, the rabbit was already in the pot.
Seeing this, little Ayan ran into the kitchen and hugged Su Mianmian's thighs, crying loudly, "Sister, you lied to me! You promised me that you wouldn't kill Xiaohui!"
Su Mianmian looked embarrassed. After thinking about it, he immediately came up with an idea. He first winked at Shen Yuandao and said:
"Sister, I really couldn't help it. I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Why don't we just bury it and let it rest in peace!"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Yuandao immediately cooperated with her: "No! Now that it's already in the pot, let's not toss it. Xiao Hui definitely doesn't want us to toss it like this."
Xiao Ayan was even more sad after hearing this: "What should I do?"
Seeing this, Qin Huaichuan also started to fool around: "We will eat it and bury the bones. This way, it can be considered to be buried in peace."
Su Qingqing also quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, I think this is okay."
After hearing what they said, little Ayan was still a little reluctant in her heart, but she finally pursed her lips, wiped away her tears and nodded in agreement.
"That's fine."
After hearing this, several people immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, fortunately, A Yan was easy to fool.
After getting Xiao Ayan's reluctant consent, Su Mianmian thought about it and made a dish of stir-fried rabbit meat and a dish of rabbit meat braised with potatoes.
Soon, an enticing aroma wafted from the kitchen, and A Yan couldn't help swallowing.
Jiubao stayed in Shen Yuandao's arms and kept looking into the kitchen, drooling.
Shen Yuandao couldn’t help laughing.
After the rabbit meat was cooked, Su Mianmian fried a few dishes and steamed some buns.
Just then, Aunt Yang came with Captain Huang, her three sons, and Liu Xu's family.
They were carrying large and small bags filled with potatoes, pickles and chili sauce made by Aunt Yang.
"Mianmian, Qingqing, the potatoes here are really delicious. You can take them back and stew them with meat or stir-fry them.
And these chili sauces and kimchi are all made by me. Seeing that you all like them, I packed some extra for you to take away." Aunt Yang pointed to the things piled in the yard and said with a smile on her face.
Seeing this, Su Qingqing jokingly said, "Auntie, you took so much, aren't you afraid that there will be nothing to eat at home?"
Uncle Huang laughed out loud after hearing this, "We have plenty to eat! Don't be polite, just take it quickly."
By the way, you guys are leaving soon, so these things need to be sent out quickly, otherwise they will be hard to carry on the road."
Su Mianmian: "Aunt and uncle, it's too much trouble for you to bring this."
Aunt Yang hugged Jiubao and coaxed her. After hearing this, she turned around and looked at her, "Go ahead and take it. We've been together for such a long time, and in my heart you are like my own daughters.
I have to leave now and I don’t know when we can meet again. Maybe later! If you want to eat the kimchi chili sauce made by my aunt, please send me a letter and I will make it and send it to you.
Liu Xu also stepped forward, holding Su Mianmian and Su Qingqing's hands tightly, and said sincerely: "Yes, my mother is right.
I treat you two as good sisters, so it's only natural for me to give you some gifts. It's no big deal."
Su Mianmian and Su Qingqing were deeply moved after hearing this. They thanked him repeatedly and no longer refused.
At this time, Xiang Yi took a look at the things piled in the yard and took the initiative to offer.
"How about my three brothers and I help you send it to the commune? Can you two carry it?"
Huang Da Ge also agreed: "Yes, we are all at home, it won't be a big deal if we help take it to the commune and mail it."
Huang Erge and Huang Sange nodded in agreement.
Shen Yuandao and Qin Huaichuan looked at each other and said in unison: "If we can carry it, we can send it ourselves."
The three Huang brothers and Xiang Yi nodded upon seeing this.
Su Mianmian invited everyone to eat, "Come and eat, we killed the rabbits we had eaten today, come and try them."
Liu Xu was surprised, "You killed the rabbit and Ah Yan wasn't angry with you?"
Su raised an eyebrow slightly and whispered to Liu Xu, "Of course he was anxious. At first, the little guy was clinging to Mianmian's thighs. But then Huaichuan said that he would bury the bones after eating the rabbit meat, and Ayan reluctantly agreed."
Liu Xu was a little amused and helpless, and the others couldn't help laughing when they heard Su Qingqing's words.
Looking at little Ayan again, he was now completely immersed in the delicious rabbit meat, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and he had long forgotten the sadness of losing Xiaohui.
Huang Sange saw this and teased, "Ayan, is the rabbit meat delicious?"
Little Ayan didn't even raise his head, his mouth full, and he mumbled, "Great, really great!"
Everyone at the dinner table burst into laughter. Little Ayan almost cried again when he saw this. He felt that he was so disappointing that he actually ate his good friend.
But then he thought again, the rabbit tasted so delicious that he couldn't help but pick up a rabbit leg and start chewing it, completely ignoring the laughter of the people around him.
After dinner, Aunt Yang and Uncle Huang’s family went home and took A Yan’s milk candy with them.
Little Ayan pulled Qin Huaichuan and carefully washed the bones he had left over one by one, then buried them under the small willow tree outside the gate, muttering to himself.
Qin Huaichuan squatted down curiously and moved closer, then heard Xiao Ayan say:
"Huihui, I'm sorry, Ah Yan did something wrong. But your meat was so delicious that I couldn't help but eat more."
When Qin Huaichuan heard this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Little Ayan looked up at him, and he quickly covered his mouth to signal that he would stop laughing.
After little Ayan finished muttering, the two returned to the house.
At this time, Su Mianmian and the others were busy washing the pot. After everything was tidied up, the four of them worked together to store the gifts brought by Aunt Yang's family into the space.
…
the next day
Su Mianmian and her companions packed up early in the morning and went to the village entrance to take the ox cart. As a result, there were many people waiting next to the ox cart, waving at them.
Su Mianmian walked forward and asked in confusion, "Uncle, aunt, why are you here?"
Aunt Lu looked at the four adults and two children helplessly, "You guys are really something. You didn't even tell us before you left so we could prepare some food."
Su Mianmian looked embarrassed. "We originally planned to leave on the 5th, but now that we've finished dealing with things, we want to go back early."
Seeing this, Aunt Li touched Jiubao in Su Mianmian's arms and said with a smile, "It's time to go back. You haven't seen your parents and family for a year. You must be thinking about reuniting as soon as possible and can't wait any longer."
