The village chief chatted with the old man for a while and then went home.
"Brother Xu, I have discussed with my brother and plan to return to Qingyun City tomorrow." Wen Die said reluctantly.
"Are you going back so soon? Can't you stay a few more days?" Xu Wenwu said, holding Wendie's hand.
"I'll go back early to help my mother prepare some New Year gifts. In previous years, these were prepared more than a month in advance. I'm afraid my mother can't handle it alone." Wen Die said.
"Okay then, I'll take you back tomorrow." Xu Wenwu said.
Wendie smiled and nodded.
When Wang heard that Wendie and her sister were leaving tomorrow, she felt a little reluctant and said, "Die'er, Yuan'er, you should spend the New Year in Xujia Village this year. There are so many people and it's so lively here. Ask Wenwu to bring your parents over."
Wendie said, "Grandma Xu, our family is always very busy before the New Year. Many people come to give us New Year gifts, and my mother can't leave, so I have to go back to help."
Zhang said, "Die'er, aren't these gifts usually delivered a few days before the New Year? Anyway, Xujia Village isn't far from Qingyun City, so it'll only take a day. So, let Wenwu take you back tomorrow to help. After you're done, you and your parents can come to the Xu family to celebrate the New Year. Our village is so lively during the New Year."
Wen Die was a little hesitant. She didn't want to agree just yet, so she had to listen to his parents' opinions.
Wen Yuan said, "Sister, let's go back first and listen to Dad's arrangements."
Wendie nodded.
The next day, Xu Wenwu sent Wendie and Wenyuan back to Qingyun City.
This year, the academy in the town started its holiday early because the teachers of the academy were going to exchange experiences with the teachers in the neighboring town. Ever since people knew that Chunqiu Academy had such a powerful figure like Xu Wenwu, the entire academy had also become aware of it.
Originally, the dean was reluctant to go, but others invited him enthusiastically. If he refused, he didn't know what unpleasant things would be said.
So several brothers also came back from town.
"Oh! So comfortable!" Xiaowu lay on the couch in the main hall, squinting his eyes and enjoying it.
For him, the most comfortable thing was not to sit in the academy in an orderly manner.
The old man kicked Xiaowu's leg and said, "Hurry up and get up. What are you talking about? Go back to your room and sleep."
Xiaowu immediately climbed up from the bed, laughed and said, "I'll go see what delicious food grandma cooks."
After saying that, he ran towards the kitchen.
The other brothers were also used to his behavior.
Just as the family started to have dinner.
Xiaoying finally rushed back to Xujia Village from the capital, exhausted.
Shippo took the envelope off the owl's leg, rubbed its back, gave it a thumbs-up and praised, "Excellent! You completed your first mission successfully!"
The owl was so happy to be praised by Qibao that it spread its wings and flew back and forth in the yard for a few circles.
"handsome!"
Xiaowu walked out of the kitchen holding a chicken claw and praised the owl circling in the air.
He had discovered this eagle outside. It almost died, but luckily it was rescued by his sister. It was beyond his expectation that it had grown into what it is now.
Qibao opened the envelope, and this time there was no nonsense in the letter.
After reading the letter, Qibao touched it and gave it to his fifth brother.
Xiaowu took the letter from his sister with doubt and read it from beginning to end.
The look on his face became more and more excited, and he said, "That's great!"
After saying that, he held the letter in his left hand and the chicken feet in his right hand, and laughed out loud in the yard.
Qibao felt helpless. Fifth brother was a bit impatient. He didn't know whether it would be good or bad for him in the future if he really let him go.
"Is Xiaowu crazy?" Wang heard Xiaowu's laughter in the kitchen and ran out quickly, asking in confusion.
"Grandma, after the New Year I can fulfill my dream and join the army!" Xiaowu said excitedly.
"What? Join the army?"
This sentence can be said to be a thunderbolt of insight.
Uncle Xu walked over and patted Xiaowu on the back of the head, saying, "You little brat, all you do is talk nonsense all day long!"
Xiao Wu was patted by him, but he was already used to it and didn't care at all. He said happily, "Brother Jing said he would take me to join the army with him next year."
Li immediately objected, "No, why join the army? It's so dangerous."
Xiao Wu stepped forward and hugged Li's arm, saying, "Mom, please let me go. Let me feel the passionate atmosphere of a soldier! I've been thinking about this for a long time."
Li said, "Do you want to feel the atmosphere that Iron Sand Palm gives you?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu took a step back and said, "Mom, just let me go. Our country isn't at war right now, so I won't be in danger. Besides, I have Brother Jing to take care of me, so I'll be fine."
Li said, "Although there's no war going on right now, who knows if there will be one in the future? Just stay home and study peacefully!"
Xiaowu felt overwhelmed when he heard about studying, and he surrounded Li and tried every means to persuade her.
Cui Cancan hesitated and said, "How about letting Xiaowu follow my father? My father is a second-rank general."
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up and he said, "Mom, look at what Sister Cancan has said, so will you just agree to it?"
Li looked at Xiaowu's hopeful eyes and hesitated for a moment.
"Let's talk about it later!" Li could only prevaricate for the time being. After saying that, she was afraid that Xiaowu would continue to pester her, so she quickened her pace and went into the kitchen to help.
"Grandpa, if you ask me to go, my mother will definitely agree." Seeing the situation, Xiaowu pestered the old man again.
The old man said, "It's useless to pester me. This requires the consent of everyone in the family. I, your grandfather, am not a dictator."
Xiao Wu said, "Anyway, I will definitely go. After the New Year, I will go to the capital with you."
The old man shook his head and said nothing. In fact, he didn't object. Going to the army could also temper the boy's temper. The boy had no interest in studying. Perhaps letting him do what he liked would allow him to grow up completely.
Cui Cancan sat in the yard in a daze, with a sad look on her face.
"Sister Cancan, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?" Qibao asked.
"My father wrote to me, asking me to go back early." Cui Cancan said.
Qibao smiled and said, "Then go back. You are no longer the same person you were before. Look how beautiful you are now after losing weight."
Cui Cancan has indeed changed a lot. She has been living in the Xu family for more than half a year without realizing it. She has transformed from being fat and bloated at the beginning to a beautiful figure with a charming figure.
Cui Cancan touched her face, which was smooth and tender, and several sizes smaller than before.
Her facial features are relatively small and delicate, and when put together they are really pleasing to the eye. She is a real beauty.
Thinking that she had undergone such a big change because of the girl in front of her, she felt not only grateful but also touched.
She was touched by the Xu family's kindness to her, and the clothes she wore were also made stitch by stitch by Wang and her family. As she lost weight to a certain level, her clothes no longer fit her, so Wang and her family would tailor her clothes every time.
