After a long journey, the two families finally arrived in H City. As soon as they got off the train, they saw He Zhendong and Gu Qishen waiting to pick them up. The two quickly stepped forward to take the luggage from Yu Huiru and Wen Jinyu.
He Zhendong said, "Mom, you can stay with us tonight, and we'll take you to Beili Village tomorrow."
Yu Huiru said, "Okay, I'll go visit your place too."
We all boarded the bus to Qianyuan County.
After arriving at He Zhendong's residence, everyone took a tour.
Yu Huiru said, "It looks pretty good. It will be convenient for you two to be neighbors."
He Zhendong said, "We're both single, so we'll eat together now. It'll be more convenient for both of us."
He Chenglin said, "Indeed, it would be perfect for the two of you to eat together."
Gu Qishen said, "We've already bought the groceries in advance, so let's eat at home today."
He Yuhan said, "I'll cook."
Han Yi first handed the child he was holding to his mother and said, "Mom, you two rest for a bit. Yuhan and I will cook."
The elderly people were very tired from their journey, so He Zhendong told them to go to their rooms and rest first.
He Yuhan and Han Yi went to the kitchen and saw that Gu Qishen and the others had prepared a lot of food. He Yuhan decided to make some simple dishes so that everyone could eat and rest.
Han Yi first helped pick the vegetables, while He Yuhan kneaded the dough; they were going to make noodles. He Yuhan took out a few pieces of cured pork from her bag, fried them into a meat sauce, and made a meat gravy. The meal was simple and was ready quickly.
After dinner, He Yuhan took out the quilts she had brought from her luggage, otherwise there wouldn't be enough quilts. That night, He Chenglin and his wife, along with Han Yixian and his wife and their child, stayed at He Zhendong's house. Han Xiao and his wife, along with He Zhenhua, stayed at Gu Qishen's house, which was just enough room for them.
Everyone went to bed early that night and slept well. Because there were many people and a lot of luggage, Gu Qishen borrowed a truck. The next day, after breakfast, he drove everyone to Beili Village.
The road was bumpy, so Gu Qishen drove deliberately at a slow pace. Yu Huiru and Wen Jinyu sat in the car with their three children in their arms, while everyone else sat in the back of the truck. The climate in Qianyuan County was already quite warm, so everyone was comfortable in the back of the truck and could enjoy the scenery along the way.
Looking out the window, Wen Jinyu said, "The South is so much better than the North. It's like spring all year round, unlike the North where winters can freeze you to death. The land is covered in snow all winter, and you can't even see a bit of green."
Yu Huiru said, "That's right. We can grow some vegetables here even in winter, which is much better than in City C. Seeing all this greenery makes me feel so happy."
Gu Qishen, who was driving, said, "The climate here is quite nice; it's not too hot in the summer and not too cold in the winter. The environment in Beili Village is even better, and Yuhan has decorated the house very well. You will definitely like it."
The people sitting behind were also very happy with the surrounding environment. Having grown accustomed to the desolation of winter in the north, they were delighted to see so much greenery.
After a bumpy ride, they finally saw the outline of Beili Village. Looking at the houses in the distance, they knew they were about to arrive at their new home, and everyone became excited.
Gu Qishen drove the car directly to the gate of the new house. As soon as the car stopped, Han Yixian jumped out first, helped He Yuhan down, and then carried the children down from the front.
Hearing the commotion, Liu Zhongyi came out of the courtyard. He was overjoyed to see everyone had arrived. "You've finally come!"
He then hugged Xiao Xurui tightly; he hadn't seen his child for so long and missed him terribly.
Everyone carried their luggage into the courtyard. A stone-paved path led directly from the entrance to the main house, in front of which was a platform several meters wide made of stone slabs. It looked very clean.
The courtyard is surrounded by a stone wall, providing excellent privacy. There's no wall separating the two houses, making the courtyard seem quite large.
The courtyard has many rooms, including the main house and side rooms, and there are plenty of options for all of them to live in.
Many vegetable plots have been set up in the yard, and a lot of vegetables have been planted. Most of the vegetables have grown and are lush and green, which looks very pleasing.
Han Xiao and the others liked the environment of the courtyard very much after just one look.
Liu Zhongyi said, "Quickly, come inside and rest. What do you think of this house? Yuhan put a lot of thought into decorating it."
Everyone carried their luggage into the house.
He Zhenhua and He Yuhan moved their parents' belongings to this side of the He family house. Everyone then toured the house, which would be their living quarters from now on.
Yu Huiru was very pleased with the spacious, bright, and warmly decorated house. The environment was just as good as her previous place in the city.
He Yuhan asked, "Mom, how is it? Do you like it?"
Yu Huiru nodded happily and said, "It's really good. The place here is no worse than the city."
He Yuhan said, "We dug a well in the yard, so it's convenient to use water. We also have a big pot and a stove for cooking."
He Zhenhua then said, "Qi Shen and I have already bought the coal for the stove and the kerosene for the kerosene stove, so cooking will be convenient. Yu Han has also prepared all the food for the house. You can grow some vegetables yourself in the future, and life will definitely be very leisurely."
He Chenglin looked at the house and nodded, saying, "The house is nice. I think Beili Village has mountains and water, and the environment is very good. We are really enjoying ourselves living here."
After putting their luggage away, the group headed to the Han family's house.
Liu Zhongyi also showed Han Xiao and his wife around the house. Han Xiao and his wife really liked the house.
