The trunk was packed full, and the villagers who were watching were shocked again when it was opened.
"I'm just a mother, and I have so many things."
"Is this milk powder? I heard that people in the city eat milk powder. This milk powder is much more nutritious than malted milk and is suitable for infants."
"These boxes of fruit look like apples."
"Here's rice and oil, who owns this big boss?"
"You are stupid. Ruyu and the other two came with him. They must be from Ruyu's family."
"Hiss," someone gasped, "Could this be the youngest son of the An family who's been on the run for over a decade?"
An elderly man squinted his eyes and looked at it, "You know what, it does look a bit like it."
"The An family is about to become prosperous."
"What a bullshit! If he had come back a few years earlier, he would have been arrested."
"Hey, you said it was a few years ago. It's really different now. People can drive cars and come back in style."
The whole village was alarmed, and the An family naturally heard it, but everyone in their family was stopped by Zhang Weifen and no one went out.
The noise outside seemed to have nothing to do with Zhang Weifen, but her clenched hands revealed her uneasy mood.
An Jingzhi was wearing a stylish suit, but his work was very down-to-earth. He carried the bag of flour directly on his shoulder. Master Sun standing next to him couldn't bear to see this and wanted to help him.
An Jingzhi smiled and said, "No, no, I can do it myself. Back then, I dreamed of how happy it would be if I could have an extra bag of flour at home and eat a bowl of white noodles."
Li Shoucai walked up politely and said, "An kid." If he hadn't seen that the other party was not at all polite, wearing a suit and carrying flour, he would have been afraid to call him that.
"Uncle Li." An Jingzhi said, "Can you find two young ones to help me carry my things?"
Li Shoucai nodded and called his two eldest sons behind him to help him move things.
Li Shoucai personally directed Master Sun to park the car at the village's threshing ground.
After asking two people to help watch the car, he couldn't wait to walk towards the An family. The An family was bustling today.
A group of people followed An Jingzhi and the others and surrounded the An family.
"Mom, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, we are back."
An Ruyu walked in first with cakes and milk powder, and An Qingxin followed with three boxes of apples on his back.
They kept advising An Jingzhi not to buy too many things, as these things were too precious to the An family.
An Qingxin had only eaten this apple once in his life, and it was a small piece that Li Xiaoxia secretly gave her from home.
An Jingzhi always said that he had his own difficulties, but he never explained them in detail from beginning to end. Although the two of them had become more friendly towards An Jingzhi after spending a few days together, they had not completely let go of their grudges.
Everyone was sitting in the dining room waiting. Even An Dapeng, who had always been bedridden, was carried out by the eldest son of the An family on Zhang Weifen's behalf.
The whole family looked over when they heard the sound, and everyone's eyes fell on the figure behind An Ruyu and the other person.
It's different. The grandeur of the house doesn't seem to fit in with this dilapidated home.
An Jingzhi walked in carrying flour and first took a look at the home in the original owner's memory. It was no different from more than ten years ago, except that it was more dilapidated.
Even this dilapidated appearance is the result of their renovations, otherwise it would look even more dilapidated.
He smiled widely, with tears in his eyes, and walked into the hall step by step, carrying flour in front of the whole family.
He walked up to Zhang Weifen and his wife, threw the flour heavily on the ground, and then knelt down.
"Dad and Mom!" He kowtowed, "I'm an unfilial son. I'm back."
"When I left home, I was thinking that if I could come back in my lifetime, I would make sure my parents live happily and that my eldest brother would no longer have to work so hard."
"Now that I'm capable, I can help you enjoy life. Parents, please forgive me for not being there to show my filial piety to you for so many years."
An Jingzhi banged his head heavily on the ground and cried bitterly.
Zhang Weifen's hands were shaking, and she gritted her teeth. "How dare you come back, you heartless bastard!"
"Mom!" An Jingzhi looked up, his eyes red and tears streaming, "Of course my son has to come back! This is my son's home!" He knocked too hard and his head was a little dizzy now.
"What home! Ever since you abandoned your whole family and smuggled yourself overseas, this is no longer your home!" Zhang Weifen stood up excitedly.
An Jingzhi saw her trying to grab the bamboo stick beside her and immediately interrupted her:
"Mom, I left home for my own reasons. I didn't want anyone to starve to death at home anymore!"
"Back then, my son watched his second sister starve to death! He doesn't want that tragedy to happen again!"
Zhang Weifen's head exploded. During the difficult times, every household was hungry. Her second daughter starved herself to death in order to save food for the family.
"You dare to mention your second sister! If she hadn't wanted to save food for you, how could she have..." An Dapeng was excited and slapped the stool with both hands.
An Jingzhi raised his head and said, "I just want to mention my second sister!"
"Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law." He glanced at them one by one: "Back then, our family was in great difficulty. I know you were all living frugally."
"Mom, you secretly drank rice water to save food for the family dinner table and didn't eat at all! And you lied to us and said you had already eaten!"
"Dad, in order to find food for the family, you venture into the mountains every day. Don't think I don't know that there are all kinds of things in those deep mountains and old forests. You never let us go in, but you sneak in and take risks yourself."
"And my elder brother and sister-in-law, you have always been so kind to me. How could I bear to see you and your family starve?"
