Chapter 42 Returning Home Late at Night



Just as the Su family was muttering, Su Qingyun and her father had just gotten off the train. Seeing her father looking around, Su Qingyun asked, "What's wrong, Dad?"

"Looking for your Uncle Nan." Su Aimin said. Before going to the provincial capital, he told Yuan Nan the approximate time of their return and asked him to visit the train station from time to time when they arrived.

"We definitely can't take these things back." Su Aimin patted his bulging bag, "Let your Uncle Nan take them away, and we'll figure it out later."

He had thought it through before coming. Yuan Nan lived alone, so leaving him there would be the safest place.

Su Qingyun nodded. These things really couldn’t be taken back.

"Oh, there!" Su Aimin had sharp eyes and soon saw Yuan Nan standing on the side of the road doing nothing.

The two of them walked forward quickly, and Su Aimin slapped him, "Hey!"

"Brother Ai Min! You are finally back." Yuan Nan turned around and said in surprise. He had been looking forward to seeing you every day these days.

He looked at Su Aimin's bag with his eyes shining, "Brother Aimin, what good things did you bring back?"

Su Aimin looked around and tilted his head, "Let's go and talk somewhere else."

The three of them walked into a secluded alley, and Su Aimin said to Su Qingyun, "Yunyun, open your bag, and we can just take some things back."

"Okay." Su Qingyun picked up a small dark green bag and unzipped it.

Su Aimin took out the things she had planned to take back and put them in her bag. Then she handed the bag in her hand to Yuan Nan and said, "Take a look for yourself."

Yuan Nan excitedly took it, and after taking a quick look, he was stunned. His eyes widened in disbelief.

"Brother Aimin, how can there be so many..." Yuan Nan lowered his voice and automatically muted the last three words. He covered his bag nervously and quickly looked to see if anyone was passing by.

"Otherwise, how can you call it a treasure?" Su Aimin was extremely pleased. "Okay, I brought this back from far away, you have to take good care of it for me."

"Don't worry! If anything happens to me, nothing will happen to these things!" Yuan Nan almost swore to heaven and earth to make this promise.

Brother Aimin entrusted these things to him for safekeeping and trusted him so much that if anything unexpected happened, he would not forgive himself. He had been doing business with Su Aimin for so long and knew that the things here were almost the entire fortune of the two of them.

"Well, we'll leave first. I'll come to the county tomorrow." Su Aimin said.

"good."

"Oh, right." Su Aimin thought of something before leaving. He took out a newspaper and handed it to Yuan Nan. "It's from the provincial capital. Take a good look."

Yuan Nan took it in confusion. Why did Brother Ai Min bring the newspaper back?

The father and daughter took a bus back from the county and just caught the last bus of the day. It was nine o'clock in the evening when they walked back to the village from the town.

At this time, most people in the village had gone to bed and the whole village was pitch black. Su Aimin asked his daughter to be careful with her step and walked back to the Su family with one step deep and one step shallow.

He pushed open the gate, and it creaked. Wu Guixiang was startled and nudged Su Dalin, who was already fast asleep. "Did you hear that?"

"What?" Su Dalin said in a daze.

"No, it must be the third brother and Yunyun who are back." Wu Guixiang got out of bed, slipped on her slippers, lit the kerosene lamp, and the warm yellow light illuminated the room.

She walked out of the room and bumped into Su Aimin and his daughter who were coming in.

"Mom, why haven't you slept yet?" Su Aimin wondered.

It’s a pity that her mother’s attention is not on him at all.

"Oh! My precious, you're finally back!" Wu Guixiang immediately went forward and hugged Su Qingyun, crying out, "I miss you so much."

"Grandma, I miss you too." Su Qingyun snuggled into her grandma's warm embrace.

"Your little face has become so thin. You look so pitiful. I know your father didn't take good care of you." Wu Guixiang reached out and touched her face, saying with concern.

Su Qingyun rubbed his face against her palm affectionately.

Su Aimin: "..." His mother is lying with her eyes open. Yunyun has gained weight and even gained weight on her face.

"Ai Min!" Qin Ying was not asleep in the first place, and came out when she heard the noise. She was surprised when she saw Su Ai Min.

Su Aimin was moved. His wife was still thinking about him.

Who would have thought that Qin Ying would just call out like that, and then she would go over to Su Qingyun and say, "Yunyun, let your mother see."

"Mom, I miss you so much."

"Mom misses you too." Qin Ying touched her head lovingly.

Su Aimin was tired, "That's enough, grandma. It's so late. Go to bed and we'll have some rest too." After sitting in the car for such a long time and walking such a long way, he was physically and mentally exhausted.

Wu Guixiang hurriedly said, "Bao'er, you must be tired. Go sit down for a while. I'll boil some hot water for you."

"Thank you, grandma."

The father and daughter simply washed and tidied themselves up, then went back to their rooms to rest. Perhaps they were too tired, and they fell asleep quickly.

The next day, Zhang Xinlan, who had gotten up early to cook, was startled to see Su Aimin coming out of the inner room. She asked in surprise, "Old Third, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me?"

"Last night, when I came back, you were all asleep." Su Aimin washed his face and woke up completely.

"What's the provincial capital like? Is it fun?" Zhang Xinlan looked around and began to wonder, why didn't she bring anything with her this time?

"It's okay, there are just more people, a bigger place, more buildings, wider roads, and more new things, but nothing else." Su Aimin said casually.

Zhang Xinlan listened with longing, how could this be called nothing?

She was about to say something else when Wu Guixiang came out. Looking at Su Aimin, she finally asked the question she had been holding back all night, "How is Yunyun doing in the provincial capital? What did the Agriculture Department say?"
