It took about ten days, and the chickenpox on Ye Xiaojin's body had scabbed over and fallen off. Jiang Xueying did not dare to neglect this process, for fear that he would scratch it and leave scars.
When most of the acne marks had fallen off, Jiang Xueying boiled some hot water for Ye Xiaojin to take a bath. During this time, she took a closer look at the other acne marks on his body and saw that they were almost gone. After washing from head to toe, Ye Xiaojin felt so relaxed for the first time.
Ye Xiaojin was naked and was stared at from head to toe by Jiang Xueying. He smiled a little embarrassedly, "Mom, I'll be shy if you look at me like this!"
Jiang Xueying didn't expect him to say this, and couldn't help laughing, "Silly boy, you are my son, why are you shy?"
Ye Xiaojin's face flushed, with water droplets hanging on her misty eyelashes. "Hey, it's written in the book that men and women shouldn't touch each other!"
This was the first time Jiang Xueying heard the phrase "Men and women should not touch each other" from someone else. She didn't expect it to be said by her adopted son, and she immediately laughed.
"Silly child, you can't just read books blindly. It's polite for men and women not to touch each other, but it also means that men and women should be different when they reach a certain age and should not have overly intimate actions. You are only a few years old now, it's too early to follow the etiquette! Besides, no matter how old you are, you are still a child in your mother's eyes!"
Ye Xiaojin nodded as if he understood, and let Jiang Xueying help him change his clothes.
"Okay, you haven't been out for so long, you must be bored, let's go out and play for a while!"
“Yeah!”
Ye Xiaojin jumped out happily. He had been locked up in the house for almost half a month and was almost bored. Now he could finally go out.
Ye Xiaoyu, who was outside the house, turned around and saw Ye Xiaojin running out happily. Her eyes lit up because she was afraid that Ye Xiaojin's chickenpox might be contagious and the two children hadn't seen each other for many days.
"Xiao Jin, are you healed?"
Ye Xiaoyu walked quickly forward, walked around him, and looked him up and down carefully. Seeing that there were still some acne marks on his face that had not yet faded, she wanted to get closer but remembered Jiang Xueying's instructions and did not dare to get any closer.
"Sister, I'm fine now. Mom let me out for some fresh air!"
Ye Xiaojin took the initiative to grab Ye Xiaoyu's hand and smiled happily.
Now that Ye Xiaojin is well again, the matter of packing up and heading to the capital should be put on the agenda. After all, Yu Feng has been waiting for them to set off together, and they can't keep dragging him on, right?
Almost a year has passed since she was reborn in this village. Now that she has decided to go to the capital, Jiang Xueying thinks she should say goodbye to her fellow villagers and thank them for their help over the years.
Of course, there are good and bad sides. As a former killer, she has always been a loner and seldom had the opportunity to communicate with others. Now that she has been reborn, she has experienced many pleasures that she had never experienced before, and she gets along very happily with these folks.
I went to the town specifically to buy some vegetables, and then ordered some from the restaurant. Fortunately, the weather has turned cooler in the past two days, so these things will not go bad even if they are not refrigerated.
She had already told Qiao that she was leaving, and Qiao came to help whenever he was free in the past few days. Jiang Xueying could see that Qiao was very reluctant to let her leave.
Early the next morning, Jiang Xueying went door to door to invite the villagers to her home for dinner.
"I plan to hold a banquet today to thank all the villagers for their care over the past period of time. Everyone must come. I have a lot to say to the villagers."
"Sister Jiang, you are so polite. If you invite us, we will definitely go."
The villagers didn't think much about it. They all knew that Jiang Xueying was a grateful and unselfish person. They thought that she had made a lot of money and wanted to repay the favors that her fellow villagers had given her.
In order to entertain the villagers well, Jiang Xueying spent a lot of time preparing this meal, and most of the dishes she made were things they had never seen before.
She couldn't handle it all by herself, so not only did she ask the Qiao family to help, she also hired a few helpers.
In the evening, most of the families in the village arrived, and everyone sat together to enjoy a sumptuous banquet, which was a rare occasion.
Soon, the delicious food was served on the table and the wine was opened. Everyone happily picked up their bowls and chopsticks.
Jiang Xueying was already in this village when she woke up. Later, she did business to make money and experienced so many things with the villagers. In her heart, she had long regarded this place as her home.
Among them, the one who helped her the most was naturally the respected village chief, so Jiang Xueying had to toast the village chief first.
"Village chief, thank you for taking care of the three of us. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't even have a place to live, and many things wouldn't be done. I know you are a good person who cares about the villagers. I hope you take good care of yourself and don't overwork yourself."
"…Thank you very much."
The village chief was deeply touched and his eyes gradually turned red. Ever since Jiang Xueying got better, he has become more optimistic about her.
Jiang Xueying then said to the villagers: "Everyone, it is a kind of fate to meet you all. I, Jiang Xueying, can't get to where I am today without your help. I will always remember it in my heart. I'm sorry that I can't drink much and can't toast everyone one by one. This glass of wine is a toast to everyone. I hope everyone will be happy in the future."
After saying that, she drank it all in one gulp.
The villagers were moved, but at the same time they sensed something was wrong. Why did these words sound like a farewell?
"Sister Jiang, you are going somewhere when you say these things?"
Some people are confused.
Hearing that someone had already guessed her farewell, Jiang Xueying smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I was just about to tell you all that I plan to take the children to the capital to find their father. I will leave soon. I specially held a banquet at home today to thank you all for your support for our family for so long, and also to say goodbye to you all. Even if I go to the capital, I will not forget you all. If I have the chance in the future, I will come back to see you all."
In fact, Jiang Xueying has never been good at talking, but she has changed a lot in this life. She has gradually integrated into this era, adapted to the life here, and is grateful to these simple-minded folks.
For a moment, everyone sighed.
They didn't expect that she was going to the capital, and they couldn't help feeling sad. After all, they had been together for so long that they had developed feelings for each other, so they were naturally reluctant to let her go.
Moreover, they have all witnessed the changes that Jiang Xueying has undergone over the past year. Not only has she led everyone to prosperity, but she has also helped the entire village overcome so many difficulties together. Every incident is deeply memorable when they think about it.
"That's right. Your man hasn't been home for a long time. I guess he has become a high-ranking official in the capital."
"Yes, if you want to go, go ahead. Don't forget to tell the people in Beijing about us. It's also an interesting thing."
Hearing this, everyone started laughing again, but there was a hint of sadness mixed in with the laughter.
