"Wow, Dabao, Xiaobao, I can't bear to leave you."
Ever since Feng Zilu knew that he would leave here with his grandfather tomorrow, he hugged Dabao and Xiaobao and cried loudly. He wanted to separate from Dabao and Xiaobao.
Dabao and Xiaobao are already over a year old, and especially after going to school, they already know a lot of things. The two little guys hugged their brother Zilu and cried loudly.
"Brother Zilu, you left? Where are you going?!"
"Let's go, okay?! We have food for you at home."
The two little ones knew where Brother Zilu had gone. They were very worried and scared, and they pulled his arms to let go, crying.
"I know."
"Grandpa said to go back to the city."
Zilu was sent down with Lao Feng when he was about five years old. Now he is almost fourteen years old. He already remembers where he came from and where he is going back to.
"Brother, please come home with us. We are a family."
"My grandparents are my brother's grandparents. You should come home with us."
Dabao and Xiaobao were inseparable from Feng Zilu every day, never apart. Especially after becoming his adopted son-in-law, Feng Zilu often stayed and ate at the Su family's house, practically becoming a member of the family.
Feng Zilu cried even harder and was out of breath. He was very, very sad.
"Alright, alright. Let Brother Zilu go back with Grandpa Feng first. He'll come back to see you after he's settled down. We'll see each other again soon."
How could she keep crying like this?! Terrified, Su Ze hurried to comfort the three children. He missed Uncle Feng and Zilu dearly. But being able to return was a great joy.
"Dad, are you telling the truth?!"
"Brother Zilu can come back?!"
Dabao and Xiaobao immediately burst into tears, wiping their tears and looking at their father with a suspicious tone and asked.
Su nodded vigorously. When they grew up, they would wait until their children returned and they would find some time to visit Feng Bo and Zilu together.
"If he can come back, we'll go see him when we have time."
"Dad, really?!"
"So, when?!"
"Probably in a few months. After Grandpa Feng and Brother Zilu go back, they'll have settled things like work, the house, and school. That way, a few months will pass, and I'll be free by then."
"All right."
"Then wait until Brother Zilu and Grandpa Feng have finished their business, then we will go see them."
"Brother Zilu, you must wait for us to come and see you."
"Yes, we'll meet soon."
"Okay, Dabao and Xiaobao, then we have a deal."
"It's a deal."
"It's a deal."
…
With Su Ze's persuasion and assurance, Dabao, Xiaobao and Feng Zilu gradually stopped crying, and immediately imagined seeing them again in a few months with anticipation.
It seemed like this would last a long time, and they would be able to meet again soon.
Suddenly, Feng Zilu, Dabao and Xiaobao burst into laughter, and the three hands that were still holding each other tightly let go.
Meanwhile, Old Feng had cleared out the food he had stored at home. Besides the roughly four dozen grains and delicacies he had brought back, he also took out eggs, bacon, salted fish, seaweed, and other items for dinner.
There is always at least one grain left from Qiao Jiru and Su Huaiyuan every three months. After deducting the grain set aside for entertaining guests at night, Bai Lianji will help deal with the rest.
There wasn't much coarse grain on the market, so it was easy to process. Bai Lianxiao found three families and traded the coarse grain for chickens, ducks, and eggs. The rest was for money.
Ever since the first person to return to the cowshed appeared, everyone has been both envious and curious about the people there. They've been incredibly friendly, willing to help whenever possible. Furthermore, after hearing that Grandpa Feng and his grandson had left, several families sent gifts, mainly to Xiaozhen and Xiaomi, who were once again able to show off their gifts.
The grandfather and grandson had a lot of luggage, so it was easy to pack. Old Feng sorted their clothes himself, while Su Huaiyuan and Cai Qingwen were busy packing quilts and bedding.
"Old Feng, it's easy to carry so many things. I think we should send over some of the things we'll need for the next eight days, and you two can just take enough for what you need."
Su Huaiyuan looked at the four big bags on the kang. These were just clothes, bedding and quilts, not including food, treasures, Zilu's books and other things.
"Old Su is right. Didn't Old Meng say that in his letter? I'll make up for my previous wages and other things when I get back. I just need to have about a month's worth of cash and food on me."
Cai Qingwen agreed with his friend's suggestion. The main reason was that Old Feng was in very good health. It was really convenient for him to carry so many heavy things and bring Zilu with him. It was like spending a little money to buy some relief.
Old Feng looked at all the bags, big and small. He didn't expect that when he first came here, he only brought a blanket and a quilt, and he and his grandson only had two sets of clothes and a pair of shoes. He didn't expect that now he had several times more things.
He and his grandson each have their own blanket and a thick quilt. He has three sets of clothes and three pairs of shoes, while his grandson has five sets of clothes and five pairs of shoes. Needless to say, he has over three hundred yuan in cash alone. His grandson also has a gold leaf longevity locket, five yuan, and a jade buckle.
"Then just take a blanket and quilt, and some clothes and shoes. Bring all the food, five grams of xiaozhen and millet, and mail the rest."
Old Feng was very decisive. After all, he was already old, and it must be very tiring to carry so many things on a long journey. Moreover, he was also carrying his grandson, and he had to take good care of the child.
This money should be spent if it is necessary.
"Okay, if you leave tomorrow, we'll see you off and help you mail your things."
Su Huaiyuan thinks this is a good idea. If they go back home, they will use this method. After all, his wife can install anything she wants in that space.
Old Feng nodded gratefully. He was so reluctant to leave everyone. They had lived together for so long, but it wasn't wrong to live here. He was thinking about his grandson's future and he was even thinking about going back.
"Lao Su, I suddenly had an idea. After I go back, I want to find a way to transfer to Beijing. When you guys go back, we'll be close enough that we can see each other often and continue to visit as relatives."
"Okay, as long as you're willing to leave Hai City, I'm very welcome. We don't have many relatives in Jing City anyway."
Old Feng looked at Su Huaiyuan, and Cai Qingwen couldn't help but reveal his inner thoughts.
Su Huaiyuan didn't expect that Lao Feng would have such an idea. Of course he was happy, willing and agreed.
"You are all in Beijing, so I will be transferred to Beijing. Our three families are relatives."
Cai Qingwen, standing by, was particularly moved by what he heard. He wanted to transfer his job to Jing City. He didn't want to stay in Hai City anymore, especially since his eldest son and his family were there. If they came back, would they come and harass him and his wife?!
"If you want to transfer here, we will definitely welcome you."
"That's right. When the time comes, we can buy houses together and become neighbors. We can see each other every day and take care of each other."
"Okay, okay."
