"Quick, where is he?"
As Lu Guoan ran towards the brigade headquarters, he asked the teenager who had brought the news.
"Uncle Captain, we should be at the village entrance by now."
Lu Guoan then asked Zhang Yong'an beside him, "Is everything ready?"
"Don't worry, I've told them to be ready at all times, and to come out immediately upon hearing the news."
Just then, they saw Sun Maodou rushing towards them, "Uncle Captain, Uncle Accountant, we've been waiting for you."
"Is everything ready?" Lu Guoan asked again to confirm.
“Everything is ready,” Sun Maodou replied.
"Quickly, Captain, the vehicle is here."
The group looked up and, sure enough, the car was almost at the brigade headquarters.
"Edamame, go and give instructions."
"Okay."
Sun Maodou quickly darted over. At this time, most of the commune members had gathered here and stood on both sides of the road. Many of them were holding a ball of red and waving it around.
"Director Yu, fire the cannon quickly."
Sun Maodou shouted at Yu Shaoheng, who was carrying a string of firecrackers on a bamboo pole.
"I ordered it."
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of crackling sounds followed.
The three children in the car were startled by the sudden sound of firecrackers. The eldest and second children pouted and were about to cry, but the youngest child quickly covered one of their mouths with his hand and said, "Firecracker, play."
Da Bao and Er Bao immediately realized it was a game and were no longer afraid. They tilted their little heads to find the source of the sound.
Lu Yuan and Wen Moxue exchanged a glance. What was going on in the brigade today that they even had to use firecrackers?
The sound of firecrackers quickly subsided, followed by a unified shout: "Welcome home! A warm welcome..."
The young couple were taken aback; this was a welcome. Because the truck had a canopy, they couldn't see what was in front or to the sides while sitting inside; they could only see the front of the truck.
The car slowly moved forward, and members of the commune holding red balls appeared on both sides of the road. Everyone waved the red balls in their hands in rhythm with the shouts.
Lu Yuan immediately laughed.
"Oh my, honey, we're quite popular with everyone. They've made such a big fuss to welcome us home."
"Quick, honey, get a big bag of candy. I want to throw candy around."
The candy wasn't prepared beforehand, but that didn't bother her at all. With a thought, a large bag of fruit candies and White Rabbit milk candies appeared behind Wen Moxue.
Wen Moxue laughed, "Last year when you came back from the provincial capital to meet your relatives, you were all over the place. You're doing the same thing this time."
"Yes, I'll spread candy every time I come back from a trip."
Lu Yuan grinned, showing his big teeth, picked up the bag, went to the back panel of the car, grabbed some candy and started throwing it out, focusing his energy in his dantian.
"Hello comrades! You're all so lucky!"
