Many people watched the opera performance. In addition to the villagers from Xujia Village and the surrounding villages, many tourists also came to watch the performance with food in hand.
Xu An and his companion struggled through the crowd and finally found the location of the villagers of Xu Family Village. Before they could even stand still, Xu Kang, Xu Le, and their group of children surrounded them.
"Brother, brother, you're here!" Xu Kang and Xu Le each grabbed one of Xu An's pants, jumping and shouting non-stop.
"Hmm, big brother's here. What's up? Was the show good today?" Xu An skillfully placed his hands on the two little ones' heads, rubbing their soft hair with obvious satisfaction.
"Brother, we have a question for you, and you must answer honestly!" Xu Kang demanded earnestly.
"Okay, what's the question? Tell me, and I'll answer honestly!" Xu An agreed to Xu Kang's request without hesitation.
"Brother, when we were playing in the snow at Hezibao, we saw Brother Heping and Sister Xiumei kissing, didn't we? They don't believe me... umm... umm."
Although Xu Heping quickly covered Xu Le's mouth, Xu Le spoke too fast, and it just so happened that the opera performance was paused. Everyone in Xujia Village heard Xu Le's words clearly, and all eyes immediately focused on Xu Heping. Two figures even jumped up and strode towards Xu Heping.
"You little brat, I thought you stayed in Hezibao to help Anzi, but I didn't expect you to be on a romance. Stop right there! Why are you running?"
"No, those two kids are talking nonsense. I didn't. I really was working for Anzi."
"No! We really saw Brother Heping and Sister Xiumei." This time, Xu Kang and Xu Le's mouths were covered by Xu An. At this point, it's better not to add fuel to the fire.
"You little bastard, Xu Heping, you stop right there, or I'll break your legs!"

Looking at the chaotic yet heartwarming scene before him, Xu An's smile grew wider. He released the two little ones' hands, gently patted their shoulders, and said, "Come on, let's go find Grandma. When we find Grandma, I'll buy you candied hawthorns, okay?"
"Okay, this way, brother."
Upon hearing this, the two little ones immediately grabbed one of Xu An's hands and led him toward his grandmother's location.
Following the direction he was walking, Xu An saw his grandmother sitting on a bench, completely absorbed in the opera, her body swaying to the music. The moonlight shone hazily on her, making the scene seem like a dream, which made Xu An slow down.
"Brother, hurry up! I want to eat candied hawthorn."
Hearing the two little ones' soft, urging voices, feeling the warmth from their hands, and watching his grandmother humming along with the people on stage, Xu An felt his heart being filled little by little.
"Okay, you two want to eat candied hawthorns, right? Then let's hurry up so you can eat them quickly, okay?"
"Okay! Brother, I want to eat grilled squid too!"
"eat!"
I want to eat takoyaki too!
"eat!"
Stinky tofu
"Alright, you two are pushing your luck! If you keep talking, you won't even get to eat candied hawthorns!"
"Just one last thing, brother, okay?"
"Tsk, you guys were talking about the last thing!"
"Mmm, lastly, brother, you're so kind!"
The story is finished! Hooray!
