The wide road stretches all the way, and the farmlands on both sides of the road no longer exist, they have all become factories.
The dilapidated low-rise houses in the village have now been transformed into two-story villas. It is obvious that the villagers are living a very good life.
"It's changed so much! I almost don't recognize it." Wang Meizhen sighed as she looked at the completely transformed Shangxin Village. She couldn't even recognize the original Shangxin Village. After going to Tianyue Continent, they never returned. The main reason was that they didn't understand the formation and couldn't pass through the teleportation array, and she was too embarrassed to bother Jinyue's parents.
Zhan Dafeng nodded in agreement, "If it weren't for that pine tree over there, I wouldn't have recognized this as Shangxin Village."
"We have been away for so long. I wonder if anyone in the village still recognizes us. I also wonder if our old house is still there." Wang Meizhen walked towards the village with anticipation.
A black car drove past Wang Meizhen and her husband. After driving a short distance, the car stopped and backed up.
An elderly woman with curly hair and a fuchsia sweater peeked out the rear window. She carefully examined Wang Meizhen and Zhan Dafeng for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Are you... Meizhen and Dafeng?" After more than a decade, how had they not aged at all? Instead, they looked younger and younger.
"Are you Mrs. Liu? Long time no see." Wang Meizhen recognized the old woman as Mrs. Liu at a glance.
"It's really you! I thought I had the wrong people. I heard your whole family went abroad. When did you come back? Why are there only two of you?" Mrs. Liu opened the car door and got out. She glanced at Wang Meizhen and Zhan Dafeng, her brows slightly wrinkled. Wang Meizhen and Zhan Dafeng were young, but the clothes they were wearing were obviously from ten years ago. It seemed that they had returned because they had a hard time abroad.
"The kids are busy, so we came back to see them," Wang Meizhen said with a smile. Yihan and Jinyue dropped them off and left. They had made an appointment with Bai Tingxue and the others to meet up in the capital, and they said they would pick them up in the evening.
Even if Yi Han and Jin Yue didn't come, it wouldn't matter to them. Although their cultivation was low, they could still control flying swords. She was very happy now. After so many years, she finally saw the villagers.
Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "How many days do you plan to stay this time? Do you have a place to stay?" Their house had been demolished long ago, and there was no place for them to stay when they returned.
"Mom, hurry up, the children are hungry." A woman sitting in the passenger seat of the car shouted impatiently.
"Hey, here I come." Mrs. Liu responded and looked at Wang Meizhen and Zhan Dafeng, "Then I'll go back first. We'll talk when you return to the village."
After saying that, she opened the car door and got in, with no intention of giving Wang Meizhen and her husband a ride. Although this place was not far from the village, it still took about five or six minutes to walk. If Wang Meizhen and her husband were returning home in glory, she would definitely give them a ride, but considering their current state, forget it. Her son and daughter-in-law would definitely not agree.
"Who are they?" asked the woman sitting in the passenger seat after the car drove some distance.
"They used to live next door to us, but then they all went abroad. I thought they were doing well there, but they're so down and out. Did you notice the clothes they're wearing? They're from ten years ago." Mrs. Liu curled her lips sarcastically. She was still the best off. Her eldest son married the daughter of a wealthy family and opened a shoe factory. He now had a house in the city and a car. Now everyone in the village envied her.
