The mother and daughter chatted until midnight and didn't want to stop, because they wouldn't see each other for several months. In the end, Su Xingran felt sorry for Zeng Huilan because she had to take the train the next day, and urged Zeng Huilan to get some sleep.
The next day, when Su Xingran and the others got up, Huang Ma had prepared breakfast and was calling them to eat. Huang Ma made dumplings, and she said with a smile, "Zhenhua told me last night to make dumplings for breakfast today. Guomin and Huilan, eat more, and then you can get on the train."
"Aunt Huang wishes you and your husband a safe journey, and hopes you'll have time to visit Beijing again."
Huang Ma loved Mr. and Mrs. Su very much, for raising such a wonderful daughter as Xingran. The couple were also kind, honest, gentle, and polite.
Su Guomin and Zeng Huilan looked at Huang Ma and said, "Huang Ma, thank you! You are welcome to visit Northeast China anytime. We would love to have you."
After Su Xingran and the others finished breakfast, Duan Yuming and Huang Zhenhua returned. "Master, Uncle Duan, where did you go so early? Have you had breakfast yet?"
Su Xingran thought her master and the others hadn't gotten up yet, but she didn't expect them to have already gotten up and gone out.
“You’ve had breakfast, right? Yuming and I went out to buy some things. Guomin and Huilan, take these things with you and take them home to distribute to the village chief and the brigade leader. I’ve already packed theirs. You can take the rest home to eat yourself, or share some with the villagers you’re on good terms with.”
Su Guomin and Zeng Huilan were surprised that Huang Zhenhua went out early in the morning to buy things and bring them home. "Uncle Huang, this is too much trouble for you. We have everything we need at home."
Huang Zhenhua waved his hand, "You came in such a hurry and for such a short time. You haven't even had a chance to eat and have fun before you have to go home. Don't refuse. Over the years, you and your wife have treated me like your own father. It's only right that you take some local specialties back with you."
Since things had come to this point, Su Guomin and his wife couldn't say anything more. "Thank you, Uncle Huang. Please take care of yourself. Xingran is on summer vacation, so you can go home together sometime."
Just as Su Xingran and her group reached the front gate, the Gu family couple arrived. Liang Yun stepped forward and said, "Guomin and Huilan, you only stayed for a few days before going back. Next time you come, you should stay longer and explore Beijing properly."
The Su Guomin family hadn't expected the Gu couple to come. Zeng Huilan responded with a smile, "Okay, this time it was too rushed. The brigade is busy and we can't take too much leave. You two should come to Northeast China to play sometime."
"Alright, alright! Lao Gu and I will definitely visit your Northeast region when we have time. These are some local specialties we prepared for you; please take them home. Lao Gu and I wish you a safe journey."
The Su couple were somewhat bewildered. They could explain why Uncle Huang was preparing local specialties for them because of Ranran. But why were the Gu couple preparing local specialties for them?
Looking at the somewhat stunned Su couple, Liang Yun felt a little guilty. Her "pig" might be trying to steal this beautiful young woman's heart. Despite Mo Li's vehement denials, he was constantly deferring to others and anxious about their injuries. Aside from his mother and sister, he had never given a girl a gift before.
She actually called home for the first time ever, asking her, her mother, to deliver the gift. She repeatedly told her to take good care of the gift and not to break it. She wouldn't let her open it, saying it was only for Xingran to see.
Liang Yun was certain that Mo Li, even if he wasn't 100% sure he had fallen for someone, was at least moved by a single sentence from a certain region.
