Ye Chen'er wiped away her tears and nodded, then suddenly remembered something and said, "Uncle, wait for me." She turned and went into the cowshed.
She came out carrying four bags, her steps very heavy. Ye Huili quickly took them from her. It was hard on this little girl who had been pampered since childhood. It's true that environment shapes a person.
"Uncle, this is Brother Chenming's luggage. This bag contains food. Please take it with you." Ye Chen'er saw the driver open the trunk and quickly put the luggage inside.
After closing the trunk, Ye Huili, not seeing Grandma Yan, bowed to Yan Xiaoqiang and the others, saying, "Thank you for your help to my son and family, Yan family. I am very touched."
Yan Xiaoqiang still disliked Ye Chenming, but he had a good impression of his peer Ye Huili. Ye Huili was a decisive and capable man, and Yan Xiaoqiang couldn't even catch up with him. Look at Ye Huili's demeanor. Sigh, comparisons are odious.
The car drove away, and Ye Chenming waved vigorously, saying, "Goodbye, Nan Nan! Goodbye, Nan Nan's mom and dad!"
Ye Chen'er was heartbroken. Why didn't they say goodbye? Fortunately, the last sentence warmed Ye Chen'er's heart: "Chen'er, be careful."
Yan Xiaonan was startled. Yes, Ye Chenming had left, and it was too dangerous for Ye Chen'er to be left alone in the cowshed. She tugged at her parents' hands and said, "Mom and Dad, Chen'er will come home with me today. Let's help Chen'er move things."
Yan Xiaoqiang nodded quickly. This young girl was his older brother's wife, and nothing could go wrong with her. He quickly told Cuihua, "You and Nannan go help Ye Chen'er pack her things. I'll go back and get the carrying pole and the basket."
The three entered the cowshed. Yan Xiaonan saw that everything was almost packed, just five luggage bags, some odds and ends, and bedding. He said to Ye Chen'er, "Chen'er, you and Mom take two of the lighter ones back first. I'll take two of the heavier ones. I'm stronger."
Cuihua disagreed and insisted on waiting for Yan Xiaoqiang to arrive before leaving together. Ye Chen'er quickly led Yan Xiaoqiang to Ye Chenming's room, where there were still bedding and blankets that hadn't been tidied up yet. The two of them quickly cleaned everything up.
Cuihua had also tidied up Ye Chen'er's bedding and blankets when Yan Xiaoqiang came in. He stuffed the things into a basket, picked up his load, and left. Ye Chen'er checked one last time to make sure the fire was out and that the cows in the shed had fodder and water before closing the door and leaving the shed.
Ye Chen'er stayed in the original rooms in the southwest and north. After lunch, everyone prepared to take a nap. They were too tired from packing these past few days. Yan Xiaonan took Zhongzi to the mountains. She was leaving tomorrow and needed to transfer her supernatural abilities to Tiger King and Southeast.
Zhongnan whimpered that he accepted Zhongzi's company, but asked Yan Xiaonan to come and visit him whenever he had time. Seeing Zhongnan growing old, Yan Xiaonan forcefully transferred his superpower to him. Tiger King was waiting on the side, and Yan Xiaonan's superpower also enveloped its body.
Yan Xiaonan only withdrew her superpower when she felt a little dizzy. Tiger King and Zhongnan had already closed their eyes and fallen asleep comfortably. Yan Xiaonan told Zhongzi to guard them well, and then went to check on the enclosure to make sure that the animals inside had enough food and clothing for Zhongnan for several years before she felt at ease.
The hot spring water smelled of sulfur. Yan Xiaonan's consciousness spread out. There was no one around. He took off his clothes and jumped into the hot spring. The warm water made Yan Xiaonan feel comfortable all over and he fell asleep without realizing it.
When Yan Xiaonan woke up, she was full of energy. It turned out that the hot spring had the effect of restoring supernatural abilities. This surprised her greatly. She had four or five large water tanks in her space. She quickly took out the water tanks, emptied the water inside, and filled them with water from the hot spring.
He went to the grove again, picked more than a dozen thousand-year-old ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms, retrieved five or six boxes of gold bars from the ground, and selected two boxes of gold and silver jewelry. Satisfied, he went down the mountain.
Grandma Yan was waiting for Yan Xiaonan. She knew that her darling had gone to the mountains to say goodbye to Zhongnan and Tiger King, and of course, she also knew that she had gone to the mountains to get gold bars. She sighed in her heart that a fairy is a fairy. How could an ordinary person dare to go up the mountain?
Cuihua and I entrusted most of our money, tickets, and some valuables to Yan Xiaonan for safekeeping. We either hid the rest of our belongings on our bodies or sewed them into the inside of our clothes. Anything that could be left on the outside was for use on the train.
Everyone sat together for dinner tonight. Grandma Yan spoke up: "Southwest, in Mushroom Village, only you and Xiaoling are left. You have jobs, so you don't have to do farm work in the village. However, your two children, as well as my and your parents' household registrations are all here. You have to keep an eye on our farm work. If you can't, you can contract it out to someone else."
Southwest nodded. He had already discussed it with his elder brother yesterday. During the busy farming season, his elder brother and sister-in-law would come back to work together. They could do as much as they could, or less if they couldn't, and they could even give the work points to others.
Grandma Yan spoke up again: "Southeast, there is rice, flour, coarse grains, and sweet potatoes in the cellar. You can share these with Southeast, which will save you money on buying food."
Southeast disagreed: "Grandma, you'll need to eat and drink in the capital too, why don't you take them with you?"
Grandma Yan rolled her eyes at Southeast: "How are you going to take us with you? Do you want to exhaust us to death?"
Southwest nodded quickly. Nannan was a capable person. The things in the cellar were deliberately left for herself and her older brother: "Grandma, Mom and Dad, Nannan, don't worry, I will take good care of our family."
"You can choose one from the bicycle or the sewing machine. I'll take the radio, and you can take the big pot and dishes from the kitchen, Southeast. You'll need these things for your new home." Grandma Yan was extremely thoughtful.
Southeast was moved. So many years have passed since the family separated, yet he has received so much benefit from his grandmother. He felt he had been unfilial and vowed to work hard in the future to achieve something that would bring honor to his ancestors, make his grandmother and parents happy, and put Nan Nan at ease.
Southwest was even more moved. Who is the best in the world? Besides Grandma, it's Nannan, and then it's Mom and Dad. The most useless and incompetent person in the family is himself. So he will take good care of the old home and let Grandma and Mom and Dad rest assured.
Xuemei chose a sewing machine. It would be much more convenient for Xinan and Xiaoling to commute to get off work with a bicycle. She lived near the school and didn't need a bicycle. She would take 300 jin of grain first and come back for more when she finished eating. Pots and pans were urgently needed, as were daily necessities from her own house. The whole oxcart was filled with all sorts of things.
Village Chief Ma asked Ma Mingchun to drive the tractor to take the Yan family to the train station, while he and Ma Mingyuan drove the oxcart to the bus station. Since Southeast was also going back to the county town after dropping off Sister-in-law Yan, Ma Mingyuan decided to go with Southeast to register at school and then come back to wait for the start of the semester.
