Chapter 364: Follower



New Year's Eve arrived soon, and what made them even happier was that on New Year's Eve, heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

The whole family sat around the brazier, watching the Spring Festival Gala. The atmosphere was very warm and harmonious.

Andy Lau's "Forget Love Water" and Meng Tingwei's "A Cloud Made of Rain in the Wind", these songs that Yuan Fangguo had heard in his previous life all appeared on the screen.

When Zhang Qiuling was listening to the song "Forget Love Water", she suddenly burst into tears.

This sudden action caught both Yuan Chengzhu and Chen Yongying off guard.

"What's wrong with you?" Yuan Fangmin quickly whispered to comfort him.

"I think this song is a bit sad," Zhang Qiuling said, wiping away tears. "Why can't lovers always be together?"

"Silly girl, I'm telling you that lovers can't be together? Aren't we together?" Yuan Fangmin comforted his fiancée.

"But after the New Year, you are going to Chengdu again, and we will be separated again. I can't bear to leave you." Zhang Qiuling's tears couldn't stop flowing.

"I will come back early when you give birth." Yuan Fangmin comforted his fiancée.

"But I still miss you." Zhang Qiuling buried her head between her legs.

"But I need to support my family." Yuan Fangmin said this with difficulty.

"Then you stay and learn the craft from my dad." Zhang Qiuling suddenly said this.

Yuan Fangmin was stunned, then he subconsciously shook his head. He had been in Chengdu for more than half a year and had seen a lot. For a young and energetic man like him, it was absolutely impossible for him to spend his whole life with his wife in a remote town.

"Your father already looks down on me. If I continue to stay in your house..." After a while, Yuan Fangmin said with an embarrassed look on his face.

Zhang Qiuling nodded subconsciously. She knew that her father had a prejudice against Yuan Fangmin. If he was really at home, her future life would probably be even more difficult.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Qiuling said, "How about I go to Rongcheng with you?"

"Ah? Come with me?" Yuan Fangmin exclaimed in surprise.

Originally, the two were whispering, but because of the surprised expression on Yuan Fangmin's face, everyone in the room heard the last sentence.

Zhang Qiuling didn't care anymore and nodded directly, "Okay, I'll go with you and wash your clothes."

"Your belly is so big, I can't even take care of you fast enough." Yuan Fangmin was conflicted. On the one hand, he really wanted his fiancée to go to Rongcheng with him. After they were together, at least they wouldn't have to suffer from the pain of missing each other. But on the other hand, he knew his fiancée would definitely suffer if she went to Rongcheng with him, especially since she was already pregnant...

"I can take care of myself. I'm not the kind of spoiled girl." Zhang Qiuling looked determined.

Yuan Fangmin still didn't dare to rashly agree to his fiancée's request. After all, he was currently relying on his elder brother for food and shelter.

"Let me think about it, okay?" Yuan Fangmin said, holding Zhang Qiuling's hand.

Zhang Qiuling nodded, and then, regardless of the presence of the Yuan family, young and old, around her, she snuggled sweetly in her fiancé's arms.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, while his parents were cooking dumplings, Yuan Fangmin called his eldest brother out the door.

"Brother, I want to trouble you with something." Yuan Fangmin looked timid. In his eyes, Yuan Fangguo was definitely more authoritative than his parents.

"I know what you are talking about." Yuan Fangguo said calmly.

"Can we let her go to Chengdu with us? We can rent a house outside." Yuan Fangmin looked very embarrassed.

"Go ahead. You don't have to live in the house anymore. You can just live in the advertising company. Uncle Chen and Aunt Bao will take care of your food, so you don't have to worry about it. But I still have to remind you that after arriving in Rongcheng, you are no longer a child. You should think more about your future with Zhang Qiuling."

Yuan Fangmin nodded, "Yes, brother, I know, don't worry, I will never cause you any trouble."

"It's not about whether it's troublesome or not, but from now on it's not just for you, it's for your family of three." Yuan Fangguo said.

Yuan Fangmin nodded: "I understand."

"I'm glad to understand." Yuan Fangguo looked at his third brother's hair in front of him, which was covered with a thin layer of snowflakes, and couldn't help but reach out to brush it off for him.

Just then, the fourth sister's childish voice came.

"Brother, Brother Three, come back and eat glutinous rice balls."

"Let's go, let's go back and eat dumplings." Yuan Fangguo gestured.

Walking into the house, you will see steaming hot dumplings made from homemade glutinous rice. They are filled with brown sugar, sesame seeds and peanuts. With a light bite, a refreshing glutinous rice fragrance spreads throughout your taste buds.

Less than ten minutes after we finished eating the dumplings, it was exactly midnight.

Yuan Chengzhu took out a bunch of firecrackers, slowly spread them out and spread them in the yard.

"Bang, bang, bang..." Soon, the sound of firecrackers rang out in the yard.

Through the light of the firecrackers and the diffused smoke, everyone prayed silently in their hearts for their wishes for the coming year.

That night, the entire small mountain village was immersed in the crackling sound of firecrackers.

When he woke up the next day, the whole mountain village had turned into a world covered in silver, and Yuan Fangan started to build a snowman again.

Soon, the three Yuan Fangguo brothers also joined the team.

Zhang Qiuling, wrapped tightly in a blanket, stood under the eaves like a panda, holding the fire bag that Qin Mingzhen usually used, and watched them laughing and playing.

Apart from visiting relatives and friends during the Spring Festival, there seems to be no other arrangements.

The day of returning to the city is getting closer, and Yuan Fangguo told his parents about his idea of buying a residential plot around the county town.

At first, Yuan Chengzhu was reluctant to do so. He knew that it would cost more than 100,000 yuan to buy land and build a house. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that what Yuan Fangguo said made sense. Wouldn't it be a good idea to build a storefront and a storage room for collecting Huanglian?

"Okay, I'll go check it out some other day."

"Tell me when you're ready and have my fourth sister call me so I can transfer the money to you," said Yuan Fangguo.

Yuan Chengzhu nodded, then waved the kitchen knife in his hand. He was chopping the cured pork feet in his home into pieces, preparing to let Yuan Fangguo and others take them to the city to eat.

Yuan Chengzhu was busy chopping pig's feet, while Chen Yongying was busy filling his pockets. He brought a lot of bacon and sausages from home.

Grandma Qin Mingzhen was not idle either. She took out the insoles and cloth shoes she had embroidered and gave them to the three brothers and her future granddaughter-in-law respectively. She kept reminding them to eat more outside and not to let themselves down.

Finally, on the twelfth day of the lunar year, Yuan Fangguo and his companions set out on their journey back to Chengdu.

Before leaving, Yuan Chengzhu specially brought a few ducks from his home to Zhang Qiuling, asking her to bring them to her parents when she returned home.
