On April 6, they arrived in Zuoyuan County, and Yang Huaitian began to get nervous.
After finding an inn to rest, he took Xiaoxue out.
"I see this kid getting more and more uncomfortable the closer he gets. Hasn't he met Dashan and the others before? Why is he so nervous?"
"How are they the same? They were just uncle and aunt before, but now they are going to be father-in-law. If he is not satisfied, it will be a waste of time. Naturally, I have to think of some way to please the father-in-law. Don't you think so, Shufeng?" Chunxiao looked at Shufeng on the side with a teasing look.
"Aunt just likes to tease people." She stamped her feet, turned around and ran back to her room.
Chunxiao burst into laughter.
Zhou looked at her and said, "It's not right to be with a child." She smiled and said, "Do you think this is feasible? They are going to settle down in Yanjia Village. I think your eldest brother and sister-in-law will probably agree. When do you think the date is suitable? It will be fine if everyone is there."
"Mom, aren't you a little too anxious? We're almost home, and my brother and his wife haven't made a decision yet."
"Why shouldn't I be anxious? She's already 17, and now we're seeing some promise. If we settle on her, the next step will be Shuwen, and then Duo'er and Xiaoqi. I think Xiaoxue is pretty good, do you think Shuwen will like that girl?"
"Mom, you're really thinking too far ahead. Don't try to match people up like this. It's not going to be a perfect match. Don't scare the girl."
Zhou sighed, "I don't know how Xiaoqi did in the exam yet. We came back so suddenly, your father and the others certainly didn't expect it. They originally planned to return after the harvest."
"Are you also feeling a little homesick?"
"What's with the bird? I'm fine." Zhou didn't understand her literary words. "Chunxiao, we finally got out here, shouldn't we buy something for Xiaoqi? If he does well in the exam, I, as his grandmother, can't go empty-handed, right?"
"You want to buy him a gift?"
Zhou nodded and said, "Go call Shufeng and let's go for a walk. He likes reading, so you can help him pick out some good books."
"He reads every day and you still think he doesn't read enough? In my opinion, if you want to buy something, buy something interesting. When the carriage passed by the street earlier, I saw a stall selling toys on the side of the road. It's worth a look. Wait for me to go and call Shufeng."
Just after noon on the second day, they arrived at Sanye Town. Zhou felt very close to Sanye Town. "If you ask me, there's no place better than ours."
Xiaoxue and Shufeng leaned against the window, staring outside.
"Aunt, are you going to Zhuangzi?"
"Aunt has a farm in town?"
"Our aunt has farms everywhere." Shufeng pointed in one direction proudly, "When we were still poor, our aunt had already bought a farm in Lu Village over there. Didn't I tell you, she is the most powerful in our family?"
"You are flattering Auntie so much because you want her to come home and speak well of you. Now that you are at the doorstep, you should go home first and settle the family affairs before going to the manor."
"Aunt, I'm not flattering you." Shufeng looked at Yang Huaitian who was driving the car, "Um, Brother Huaitian, do you want to go home with us? Do you want to find a place to stay in town?"
When Yang Huaitian heard this, he immediately stopped the carriage and said, "Yes, yes, Xiaoxue and I will find a place to stay in town first." He looked at Xiaoxue, and Xiaoxue nodded repeatedly.
Zhou slapped Shufeng on the arm. "You girl, you're not reserved when you should be, and you're acting weird when you shouldn't be. We have so many houses at home and they can't even accommodate the two of them. Why are you letting them stay in town?" She gestured to Yang Huaitian to continue on his way. "We're already at the doorstep. Stop making trouble and leave."
Yang Huaitian looked at Shufeng apologetically and continued walking.
"Grandma, Sister Shufeng is right. It's not good for my brother and I to live there like this." Isn't it said that we should avoid suspicion?
"If you're worried about it, you can stay at Chunxiao's place. She has plenty of space there, too. Or you can stay at Lao Er's place. The house is empty now, and it would be bad if no one was there. Anyway, there's so much space at home, why do you need to stay in town?"
Shufeng curled her lips and said, "Grandma, you are so fickle. It was you who asked me to pay more attention to you, but now that I pay attention to you, I am in the wrong."
"I'm too lazy to tell you. I don't know what you're thinking. Are you afraid your mother will tell you? Can this be hidden? They say an ugly daughter-in-law must meet her parents-in-law. It's the same principle. It's all your aunt's fault. She's made your temper more and more wild."
"I knew that you would all blame me in the end, and sure enough." Chun Xiao wrinkled her nose and made a face at Shu Feng, "Aunt, I will not deny the injustice I have suffered."
"Aunt, if my mother scolds me when I get back, you have to protect her for me."
"Don't worry, I will definitely be the first one to run away. I won't get involved with your mother's education."
Xiaohua smiled at the side, "Don't worry, Shufeng, the young lady says one thing and does another. If there is anything, she will definitely help you."
Xiaoxue also looked at Shufeng, her face showing worry, "Will Auntie hit you again?"
"That's hard to say!"
"Don't listen to her nonsense. Your Aunt Tian is the most reasonable person. You will understand when you go back. I finally understand what Chunxiao means by being eager to go home."
The carriage moved quickly and entered the village in half an hour. Someone was working in the fields. Seeing a stranger driving a carriage into the village, several people called out to Yang Huaitian cautiously, "Hey, stop. Where are you from? Who are you looking for?"
Shufeng suddenly opened the curtains and said, "Auntie, it's us."
The aunt who was working saw Shufeng and laughed, "Shufeng is back, then, then hurry back."
