When Anqi and Hanwen returned, they found the village was different. Many weeds had disappeared, and everyone was busy in the fields, just like when they were children.
When she was a child, there were always people in the fields, busy at all times, and the village was filled with the aroma of cooking.
I don't know when it started, but going back to the village doesn't feel the same as when I was a child. Even the New Year doesn't seem as lively anymore.
Now, it seems the liveliness of the past has returned. Has something happened that she doesn't know about? From afar, she saw her mother, Mo Yan.
"Mom, what are you all doing? Why are you all in the fields?"
"Didn't I already tell you? I'm not farming anymore, it's too tiring. You should rest. I'll buy you anything you need."
The villagers have heard these words a lot these past two days, as if this is what filial piety is, but that's not what they really think. This is not the kind of life they want.

"Really? I forgot. Didn't I come here to tell you this in a serious manner? And I've missed you too."
Perhaps because of her pregnancy, she also began to miss her mother, and miss the time when her mother was alive.
"I'll be done soon. You two go to the village committee. Someone there will cook, and we'll eat soon."
"Oh, right, Hanwen, you go help too. Anqi is just watching from the side. Don't be silly and go help, you hear me?"
"I heard you."
"Okay, Mom."
When the two of them arrived at the village committee, they found two or three women cooking. They greeted them as soon as they saw them.
"Anqi is back. Do you want some sunflower seeds and peanuts? They have them over there."
This left Anqi a little confused. "Auntie, what's going on? Is someone having a celebration?"
Why are they even having communal meals now?
