At that time, Meidong Restaurant had already opened. Shen Donghua was actually quite busy, but she still wanted to go there with them to see what happened to the beastly couple, and also wanted to take the opportunity to look for her third sister.
So she pulled her husband and asked him to go together. After all, her uncle and aunt were not in good health. If anything happened, her cousin probably wouldn't be able to handle it alone, so she came along.
The person Chen Chunhua saw on the street was indeed Shen Donghua, but at that time Donghua and her group of five were all rushing to go to the provincial capital to watch the execution, so they were in a hurry.
After watching the execution, his aunt became completely limp and had no strength to walk, so everyone didn't stay any longer and hurried back.
A few days after returning, her mother-in-law slipped and fractured her hip while working in the fields. Mao Dachui had to go to work, she had to manage the store, and the two children were still young, so her father-in-law had to take care of her mother-in-law, then feed the chickens and ducks, and then take care of the vegetables, which were already delicate in winter.
In short, the house was so busy that she put the idea of going back to see her sister aside.
For Shen Donghua, she had not seen her third sister for 16 years, but for Chen Chunhua, it had been almost 70 years, a whole lifetime, and she finally saw her sister again.
"Third sister, are you doing well?" Donghua asked with red eyes.
Chen Chunhua sniffed, wiped her eyes and nodded.
"Well, I'm doing well. I have two sons and two daughters. Your brother-in-law is the head of the supply and marketing department of a village-run enterprise. I have a breeding farm and raise hundreds of chickens, ducks, and geese. You see, I came here today to buy chicks. I want to expand the farm."
Donghua laughed when she heard this. "Wow, that's even more impressive than me! I thought it was impressive for a woman like me to run a small restaurant, but you, Third Sister, are even more amazing!"
The two sisters looked at each other and smiled for a long time, and Chen Chunhua chattered to her about some things in Shenjia Village.
"So our Shen family is also extinct, right?" Shen Donghua raised an eyebrow and tutted twice, her tone still tinged with a hint of joy. "They were always thinking about selling us for a good price to buy wives for their two precious sons, but in the end, neither of those two precious children was there to see them off to the end."
"But they should be thankful that you, Third Sister, are by their side. If it were me, I probably wouldn't even bother collecting their bodies. It wouldn't be my business if they just rotted there or stank."
If she hadn't run fast, her bones would have been among them. When she went to watch the parade that day, if her man hadn't been with her, she would have had the urge to take a knife and walk around Shenjia Village.
But now that I heard Chen Chunhua say that they had passed away long ago, I felt no emotion at all, even though I had thought I would be excited and happy. It was as if I was listening to the story of a stranger.
"Death is the end of debts. It doesn't matter. They've lost everything they wanted anyway. Chen Xiasheng... probably won't be around for long. There won't be anyone holding us back anymore. We just need to live our lives well."
Donghua agreed with Chen Chunhua's words. Although 16 years had passed, she had woken up many times in the middle of the night worried that she would be caught.
Just like what the third sister said, when a person dies, all debts are forgiven, and there will be nothing that can hinder them in the future, so they should just live their lives well.
The two sisters didn't actually chat for long. Donghua invited Chen Chunhua to visit their home, but she declined. After all, she was with Liuni today, and Lin Guoqing was still out, so they would all go to the city together when the time came. However, they exchanged contact information and planned to visit each other again during festivals and holidays.
To be honest, 16 years and 5,840 days is not a small number. It even exceeds the time the two sisters have spent together.
Chen Chunhua didn't think that such a short two-hour chat could completely eliminate the 16-year distance. Everyone had a family and a career. The sisters in their teenage years were now just relatives looking at each other across the river.
If she went to the house rashly, how would she explain to the man, parents-in-law and children in the family? Chen Chunhua felt that she should give Donghua some time to prepare.
This is also the sense of propriety that should exist between people.
Liu Ni burped after eating. It was easy to feel sleepy when the weather was neither hot nor cold. She was half asleep when her aunt woke her up and told her to leave.
She thought they would stay until the evening, and vaguely seemed to hear the proprietress inviting them to go home. Was she not going?
What about payment? Did your aunt pay for the meal?
Oh, the boss lady didn’t want it, saying that she had already paid for it before. She didn’t understand, but she just felt very bloated and wanted to go out for a walk to digest the food. Anyway, she just had to follow her aunt.
"Then I'll be leaving first. When you're free, come find me in Sihe Village. We've just built a two-story house, so there's plenty of room for you to stay."
Chen Chunhua stood at the door of Meidong Restaurant, looked at Donghua with a smile and said, Donghua also responded with a crooked eye,
"Oh, then our family needs to work hard to build the second floor quickly so that you can bring your nephews and nieces to live with us."
…
Lin Guoqing had almost finished handing out all the business cards today. He didn't know if they had any effect, but he had written down several pages of contact information and would think about it slowly when he returned to the factory.
He likes doing business in Shanghai the most, one reason is that it is close, and the other is that he can bring back something new every time he comes here.
Lin Shuchao's unshakable status as the little bully in Sihe Village is probably due to the financial support from his biological father, and the only price he pays is being beaten up from time to time.
He bought a white steamed bun for lunch, just enough to fill his stomach. He was also thinking about taking his wife back to the city across the river, and when he did, he would have to find a Western restaurant to treat them to some delicious food! So, of course, he tried to save as much as possible at lunch.
Lin Guoqing arrived back at the guesthouse entrance around 3:00 PM, the latest time he and Shen Chunhua had agreed upon. After all, they still had to walk for over ten minutes to the bus stop, and then take the bus back to the pier for the ferry, which would take over an hour. By 5:00 PM, he was worried the three of them would be separated on the ferry.
So it’s better to go earlier.
He squatted there for just a few minutes when he saw Chen Chunhua coming over with Liu Ni, smiling brightly. Even after ordering so many chickens that morning, she hadn't seemed so happy.
"What's wrong? Why are you so happy?" Lin Guoqing asked.
Chen Chunhua continued to smile, and she came up and put her arm around Lin Guoqing's arm, pulling him forward.
"Hurry up, hurry up, it will be crowded if you're late!"
"and you……"
"I saw Donghua. During the National Day holiday, Donghua was here. She got married, had a baby, and even opened a restaurant. She's living a good life."
"I'm really happy."
