Lin Youfu had thought about this too these past few days.
But there's no medicine for regret in this world.
There are no "ifs".
Lin Caifeng asked, "Father, Mother, do you think Lin Chuan and the others can still return to Yuquan Village?"
Wu Chunhua scoffed, "Coming back my foot! What kind of life can you have in the village? It's not the same in Kyoto. Anyone who comes back after going to Kyoto is a fool. Let's not even talk about others, do you think Lin Chuan is that stupid?"
Lin Caifeng thought about it and agreed.
She was determined to find a husband from Wangshan County, but now Lin Chuan and his family have already gone to Kyoto.
Kyoto was something she never even dared to dream of.
The next day, near noon, the train slowly pulled into Kyoto.
Lin Chuan looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar scene outside. Kyoto, he was back.
However, this time my mindset was completely different.
Unlike the debt he owed Xu Chunmai in his previous life, he felt no heartbreak or pain at not being able to find Da Ya.
Lin Chuan hugged Lin Shuning tightly. "Shuning, look, we've arrived in Kyoto."
The children blinked their big eyes, looking out so much that they couldn't see enough of it all.
After getting off the train, Lin Chuan led the group out of the station with practiced ease.
Fu Tongyuan was already waiting at the exit.
Three cars arrived this time and picked everyone up at once.
"Uncle, are my parents getting used to staying here?"
Fu Tongyuan smiled and said, "I think it looks pretty good."
What he didn't say was that, in order to make Lin Qingyou and the others comfortable, Fu Qiming didn't invite Fu Qifeng and his family to come over for the Chinese New Year this year.
Fu Qifeng and his family must be feeling rather awkward about it.
Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei were very anxious. Although they were not uncomfortable staying here, they still wanted their children to be by their side.
There was a commotion outside, so Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei came out.
Sure enough, Lin Chuan and the others arrived with the children.
After Fu Tongyuan led Lin Chuan and the others into the main house, the room immediately felt cramped.
Fu Lingyun and Fu Qingwei helped Fu Qiming and Shen Jinshu out.
Fu Qingwei's eyes widened. "Second Uncle, these are my older brothers and sisters?"
Wow, there are so many people! That's great.
Lin Qingyou smiled and nodded, then began to introduce Fu Lingyun and Fu Qingwei.
Fu Lingyun and Fu Qingwei looked at them one by one.
Without Lin Qingyou saying anything, they already guessed who Lin Chuan was.
When Fu Qiming and Shen Jinshu saw that their whole family was finally together, they were overjoyed.
Shen Jinshu took Xiao Le'an from Xu Chunmai's arms. "Xiao Le'an is awake. I am your great-grandmother. Do you remember me?"
Little Le'an stared at Shen Jinshu with her big, round eyes, then giggled and reached out to touch Shen Jinshu's face.
"Great-Grandma's little Le'an is such a clever girl, she must have recognized Great-Grandma."
Fu Qiming came closer, and Xiao Le'an immediately opened her arms, wanting Fu Qiming to hug her.
Fu Lingyun and Fu Qingwei stared wide-eyed; they had never seen Fu Qiming hold a child before.
Fu Tongyuan once said that their grandfather never held either of them when they were little.
But now, Fu Qiming reached out and took Xiao Le'an in his arms.
Xiao Le'an's face was pressed directly against Fu Qiming's face, getting his face covered in saliva.
Xu Chunmai was afraid that Fu Qiming would find her disliked, but Fu Qiming laughed heartily, showing no sign of dislike at all.
"Oh my, Le'an has already received a gift from her great-grandfather?"
Xiao Le'an was a little dazed from the impact. Fu Qiming picked her up and sat her down. She blinked her eyes, pulled Fu Qiming's hand, and still put it in her mouth.
"Great-Grandpa's fingers are dirty, you can't eat them. I told you that last time, you greedy little girl."
Xiao Le'an pouted, turned her face away, and went to hug Shen Jinshu.
"Haha, look at this little girl, she's only five months old, but she already has quite a temper."
Fu Qingwei looked on in surprise, "Grandpa, she actually wants to eat your fingers?"
Shen Jinshu said from the side, "Babies this big like this like to suck their hands. When their toes can fit in their mouths, they'll start nibbling on their toes."
Fu Lingyun looked on with curiosity, "The little kids are so soft and cute."
Shen Jinshu smiled and said, "When you have one in the future, it will be just as soft and cute."
Fu Lingyun's ears turned slightly red. "Grandma, I just got married. We haven't thought that much about it yet."
The whole family was enjoying a happy time together.
Fu Qiming called all the children over and gave each of them a red envelope.
"It's for the New Year, given by my great-grandfather."
Each child kowtowed to Fu Qiming and Shen Jinshu, then happily put the red envelopes into their pockets.
Fu Lingyun and Fu Qingwei called the children over.
"Here we have peanuts, sunflower seeds, walnuts, biscuits, and candy. Here we have oranges and apples. Help yourselves to whatever you want, don't be afraid."
The children nodded obediently and didn't make a fuss at all.
Fu Qingwei said, "Second Uncle, how did you raise your children? They are all so well-behaved. I've seen so many children who are really noisy."
Lin Qingyou said, "Sometimes I actually hope they make a lot of noise."
Fu Qingwei recalled what Fu Tongyuan had said: the child was so well-behaved because he had been suppressed too much when he was young.
"Second Uncle, it will get better slowly, and it will get better and better," Fu Lingyun said.
Lin Qingyou nodded; he believed it too.
Everyone washed their hands, and it was time to eat. The whole family sat around the table, and it was incredibly lively.
For Fu Qiming and Shen Jinshu, they were busy with work before retirement, and their home is quiet and deserted after retirement.
It feels really good to have so many children and grandchildren.
Lin Chuan and his group were having a lively meal when someone came into the courtyard.
Lin Qingyou turned around and saw Fu Zhenghui.
He was still carrying something in his hand.
"Second Uncle, Second Aunt, are you eating?" Fu Zhenghui was quite taken aback when he entered the room and saw a table full of people.
I knew Lin Qingyou's family was large, but I had never seen them before and I never imagined there were so many people.
Fu Qiming asked in a calm voice, "Is there something you need?"
"It's nothing, Second Uncle. I just heard that Lin Chuan and the others arrived these past two days, so I brought you two bottles of wine."
Fu Qiming put down his chopsticks. "You can go back now after delivering the wine. We have too many people today to entertain you properly. Qingwei, go see your uncle off."
Fu Qingwei stood up. "Let's go, Uncle. I'll see you off."
Fu Zhenghui had only come to take a look; he was genuinely unsure of what to expect.
As they left the courtyard, Fu Zhenghui said in a low voice, "Qingwei, your second uncle's family has too many people. Will they be easy to get along with? You and Lingyun, you two sisters, need to be careful."
