The atmosphere was warm, yet a little bit sad.

Especially Grandma Mu, she really didn't think that she would be able to return to the capital in her lifetime, and she thought she would die of old age here. She never thought that when she was in despair, it was Shen Yu who brought her hope and even asked Xiaowu of the Feng family to bring her two children from the capital.

Originally she didn't want to leave. She wanted to wait until Sun Manxiang was punished before going back. But now she has realized that she is old and can't afford to waste time.

Besides, my son is right. There is nothing more satisfying than being able to take revenge with one's own hands.

That's why Grandma Mu decided to follow Grandpa Chu and others back to the capital.

Her children were by her side, and her so-called ex-husband was devoted to her. Although she ignored him, she was sure that the old man would not look for Sun Manxiang.

In fact, for Sun Manxiang, the person in the Chu family who hates her the most should be Old Man Chu.

Although in that era, it was not a problem for a man to have three wives and four concubines as long as he could afford it, some wealthy families had more than ten concubines.

However, for men, marrying a woman by themselves and being forced to marry a woman with weapons pointed at the heads of their family members are completely different things.

Sun Manxiang completely deprived Mr. Chu of his dignity as a man.

Moreover, this struggle lasted for decades.

Now that he has the opportunity to fight back, he will definitely be ruthless.

So Mr. Chu's emotions were extremely complicated now. He didn't know what he was thinking about, and his eyes were red...

Others knew what was on his mind, so they naturally pretended not to see it.

After all, this is the Chu family's family affair.

Fortunately, Mr. Chu, who had been a little out of control, quickly returned to normal, and Chu Han toasted Mr. Shen San, Mr. Li Wu and Shen Yu one by one, thanking them for their care.

As they talked, the sadness faded and the atmosphere became lively.

On the big kang side, no one was drinking and everyone ate faster.

Shen Mingxi looked at Feng Anchen several times, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

She really wanted to ask Feng Anchen if he knew the three words "Dongfang Yao".

She wasn't very familiar with the Chu family, so she didn't want to ask. But Feng Anchen? She didn't know why, but she always felt that he was a lot more casual.

Feng Anchen is an extremely smart person. Although he can't always stare at other people's daughters at the dinner table, he can still glance at her occasionally without making any noise.

So, he immediately realized that Xiaoxi seemed to have something to say to him.

However, there was a hint of hesitation.

Of course, Feng Anchen, who was very thoughtful, did not narcissistically think about other things. He just vaguely knew that Xiaoxi seemed to want to ask him something.

It has to be said that for someone like Feng Anchen, once a person enters his heart, he can analyze the other person's micro-expressions clearly.

Fortunately, Shen Mingxi didn’t know that the young Feng Anchen had such a vicious look in his eyes, otherwise, Shen Mingxi would definitely be expressionless in front of him.

We will set off after breakfast tomorrow morning.

Everything is ready, just waiting to be taken away by car.

After eating and drinking, he quickly cleaned up the small table on the kang and went to the kitchen with the bowls and basins.

Shen Mingxi boiled a large pot of water, poured it into the thermos, and then poured a cup of hot tea for each of the older people.

Knowing that Mr. Chu had a bad stomach, I first served him a bowl of millet porridge, because tonight's meal was sorghum rice and millet rice, which would not be very comfortable for people with bad stomachs.

Today, the Shen family's two long tables were put together, and more than a dozen people sat at them, including Chu Nan, who drove a Chinese bus here, and two other members of the Chu family.

Fortunately, the sorghum wine is heated in advance, so it will not harm your body when you drink it, but you can't drink too much.

However, these people also knew what today's meal meant, and of course they would not get drunk. Most of the time, Grandma Mu and Uncle Shen talked about some unforgettable things in this village.

Aunt Su and Third Grandma also came. Third Grandma had a lot of contact with Grandma Mu and got along well with them. Aunt Su and Chen Li were their juniors, but they talked to each other affectionately.

After all, she is leaving here. Looking back, she is filled with memories. This should be her second hometown and the most important place in her life.

And she will not cut off her contact with the people here, and will definitely help those who have helped her before within her ability. Of course, these words are kept in her heart. Some things cannot be said with words, but must be done.

Chen Li sat next to Grandma Mu. Actually, she didn't like such occasions very much. But to be honest, it would be very rare for her to have dinner with Grandma Mu like this in the future.

Of course Shen Yu didn't drink. He was the host, and he took good care of the elderly people at the table.

Seeing her daughter thoughtfully pouring them hot tea, she smiled at her daughter and whispered, "Xiaoxi, we will eat for a while. You can take Yaya to rest. You don't have to take care of the kitchen and here."

Shen Mingxi nodded, then put the kettle filled with hot water aside and went to the kitchen.

Then I saw my eldest brother and Feng Anchen washing dishes there.

Shen Qingshan was squatting in front of the stove, boiling a large pot of water.

In the Shen family, there is no habit of men not going into the kitchen and washing dishes.

Although Chen Li and Xiaoxi can take care of all the kitchen work, everyone, including Shen Yu, will lend a hand whenever they have time.

In the past, this family was actually very happy, except that they were oppressed and didn't know how to resist.

Including Shen Baozhi, everyone was extremely jealous every time they saw it.

Soon a basin of bowls and plates were washed and placed in the cupboard. Shen Jiawen did not let Feng Anchen go out. He put on his cotton coat and went out with the dishwashing water.

Shen Qingshan added half of the firewood to the stove, looked at the firewood storage on the other side of the kitchen, and found that there was not enough firewood to make breakfast tomorrow morning.

He hurried out to get firewood, so that he wouldn't have to go out in the cold tomorrow morning. He could just light a fire in the kitchen and the house would become warm.

Winter in the north is actually very sad.

It was strange, as if God was helping, as Feng Anchen and Shen Mingxi were the only ones left in the kitchen.

Feng Anchen actually doesn't know how to do these housework, but he knows how to wash dishes. Apart from that, he doesn't know how to do anything else. He watched Xiaoxi busying herself and wanted to ask, but he also knew that there were some things that Xiaoxi had to say and he couldn't ask proactively.

Otherwise, Xiaoxi would definitely think that he was fine and pay attention to him. If this caused Xiaoxi's disgust, wouldn't it be more trouble than gain, and would it backfire? (End of this chapter)
