After getting off the train, the group walked home, preparing to give Jianjun and Tingting a surprise.
They came back a few days early this time, so they believed their parents would be very surprised and happy to see them.
The children ate well and were well-nourished, so they were all very tall and good-looking, standing out from the crowd.
They also possess a refined and cultured demeanor, and a composure beyond their years.
Their appearance at the village entrance became the talk of the town.
"Look at these five children, they're really great. Whose children are they?"
"I feel it's Guo Jianjun and Zhang Tingting's, but how come they've suddenly grown so tall? They don't look alike anymore."
"That's right, but all five of Guo Jianjun's children were admitted to Xiamen University."
"If you ask me, if you're lucky, you don't have to work hard. Back then, everyone in our village said that we relied on Jianjun to go to work, and life wasn't easy."
“Whenever they have nothing to do, they go up the mountain to find food. Everyone in our village knows that. But look at how they live now.”
"That's right, they've all made something of themselves. Look at these kids, they're all tall and they even got into Xiamen University."
"Tell me, have these children been betrothed yet?"
"Who knows? You know Jianjun and his wife rarely come out to chat, and they're not familiar with us at all."
"I wonder which family is so lucky to be able to form a marriage alliance with them."
It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it, because once he did, everyone around him was stunned and hurriedly ran home.
After all, even if they don't have a daughter of their own, they still have relatives. If they really get together, they won't forget about their matchmaker.
The village entrance, which was quite lively just a moment ago, soon dispersed as everyone hurried home.
After all, what they need now is time, and they're all afraid of others getting ahead of them.
Now everyone in the village knows that Cheng Cai and the others have returned, but the only ones who don't know are Jian Jun and his family.
Zhu Zi and the others were unaware of this situation. When they passed by the village entrance, they saw the old woman at the village entrance staring at them.
Before they even knew what they were talking about, they felt a little nervous and hurried home even faster.
"Brother, let's knock on the door quickly, Mom and Dad will be so surprised to see us."
"That's right, I wonder who will open the door, haha."
“Mom, it sounds like someone is knocking on the door. I’ll go check it out,” Fu Bao said.
"Okay, go ahead."
Fu Bao grew impatient as the knocking grew louder.
He quickly called out, "Stop knocking, we're coming!"
"It looks like my little sister. I recognized her voice immediately. It's been a year since I last saw her. I wonder if she's grown taller."
Fu Bao opened the door and saw her five older brothers outside. She wondered if she was seeing things, since they had said they wouldn't be back for several days.
After rubbing her eyes, Fu Bao confirmed it wasn't a dream and shouted, "Brothers, you're back!"
"Yes, aren't you happy? You've grown quite a bit taller in just one year of school."
"Then brother, I'll go tell Mom and Dad, and Qiuqiu too."
"Wait a minute, Fu Bao, don't tell anyone. We're going to give Mom and Dad a surprise."
"Jianjun, go check on Fubao. Why hasn't he come back for so long? I'm so worried."
"Okay, honey, I'll go right now."
As soon as Jianjun opened the door to the yard, he saw Cheng Caizhu and the other four standing in the yard, walking towards the house.
