Chapter 582 Extra: Zhao Mingzhu and Lin Luoting are back too.
The population of Wutong Village has increased dramatically, and only the training ground can accommodate a banquet for the entire village.
Early in the morning, a large number of people were busy at the training ground.
Some were washing vegetables, some were chopping vegetables, and some were heating oil in woks. It was quite a lively scene, with everyone busily engaged in their tasks.
Knowing that Lin Luoxi and the others are all germaphobes, there are very few loud conversations. Even when they need to pass plates or dishes while working, they only say a few words, for fear of spitting on them.
The children were overjoyed that the training ground had been taken over, and they played and frolicked around the adults on the training ground with their friends.
Lin Luoxi and Xie Hanchuan were awakened by the noise. When they went outside, they saw the training ground and the warm and united scene of the villagers. The two looked at each other.
"Home is still the best!" Having traveled to so many places, the simple and honest folk customs of Wutong Village still make people feel the most at home.
“Yes, let’s go take a look…” Xie Hanchuan agreed with Lin Luoxi’s words, nodded, and led Lin Luoxi toward the training ground.
"Luo Xi, Luo Xi..."
As soon as Lin Luoxi and Xie Hanchuan arrived at the training ground, at the entrance of Wutong Village, came the excited voices of Zhao Mingzhu and Lin Luoting.
Everyone looked over and saw that Lin Wenjin and Yang Xiaofeng were at least in front.
Following behind were carriages, at least ten in total. People emerged from the first two carriages; they were Zhao Mingzhu and Lin Luoting, whom they hadn't seen for two years.
"Wow, you're back too!" Lin Luoxi's eyes lit up with surprise when she saw Zhao Mingzhu and Lin Luoting, and she walked towards them.
My childhood playmates have returned, and the village is about to come alive again.
"Yes, Wenjin said you were all in the village, so we came back with you."
"Hehe... By the way, could you help us manage these three troublesome brats at home?" Zhao Mingzhu's round face softened with a headache when she mentioned her own brats.
"Simple. Look, all our kids are over there. Why don't you let the three of them go over and play too..."
Lin Luoxi was not angry at Zhao Mingzhu's request. Instead, she smiled and pointed to Xie Zhili and the others who were surrounded by a group of children not far away.
As soon as Lin Luoxi finished speaking, three little radish heads appeared at the window of Zhao Mingzhu's carriage.
"Hello, Aunt Luo Xi! Aunt Luo Xi, you are as beautiful and young as ever."
Three little boys who looked exactly like Lin Wenjin greeted Lin Luoxi in unison with their big eyes, creating a very comical scene.
"Alright, alright, come down and go play with your brothers!" Lin Luoxi couldn't resist the three identical little brats with their sweet talk.
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Luo Xi." Seeing that Lin Luo Xi agreed, the three little ones immediately climbed out of the carriage and ran towards Xie Zhili and the others.
"Slow down, slow down..." Zhao Mingzhu shouted anxiously from behind when she saw her three sons running like wild horses.
"Oh, alright, the children will be careful. Besides, a fall helps them walk more steadily..." Seeing Zhao Mingzhu's worried expression, Lin Luoxi immediately pulled her and Lin Luoting back.
Lin Luoting has only been married for three or four years, and her child is still unsteady on his feet and needs a wet nurse to hold him as he walks.
Lin Luoting was in good health; she had two children in three years, a son and a daughter, making a perfect family.
"Today, our village is having a continuous feast, so you don't need to go back to prepare. Just eat here!" Lin Luoxi pulled Zhao Mingzhu and Lin Luoting to her house to play first.
"Yes, there's a saying that goes, 'It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.' Look, I've been longing for these big crabs and lobsters, and I'll be able to eat them today."
Zhao Mingzhu couldn't help but get excited when she saw the villagers steaming large crabs and lobsters in pots next to the banquet.
She sent the servants back to the old house to tidy up, and she and Lin Luoting went to sit with Lin Luoxi for a while.
"Hehe, now that you're back, I promise you can eat your fill." Lin Luoxi laughed when she saw how hungry the two of them looked.
The people are still the same; they haven't become strangers despite not seeing each other for many years.
After chatting at Lin Luoxi's house for a while, we heard the sounds of dinner being ready coming from outside.
The village banquet even reserved seats for Lin Luoxi and her group, so they didn't have to squeeze in with strangers. They could also chat occasionally while eating, creating a relaxing atmosphere.
The village feast lasted all day, with everyone enjoying a lavish seafood feast. Satisfied, they packed up their belongings and went home.
Half a month —
"Hehe, we're back too."
Wang Yurou and Jam Hsiao returned with their nine-year-old son.
"Mom, why are you back too?" Lin Luoxi was quite surprised to see Wang Yurou and Xiao Jingteng return.
“We heard that you set up a youth training base in the village, so we came back.”
“In recent years, your brother has been hanging out with those young masters and noblemen in the capital. He has become unruly and even your uncle can’t control him anymore. So I wanted to bring him back and let him suffer a bit.”
When talking about her child, Wang Yurou had a helpless and resigned expression on her face.
"Alright, since my little brother is disobedient, let him train with Zhili and the others!"
"However, the training will be very tough. Don't come back later and complain that we're too strict when you see your son has injuries!"
Since we're all family, let's lay the unpleasant truths out upfront, so that Wang Yurou won't have anything to say later.
"How could that be? Since we chose to bring him back, it's up to you." With that, Wang Yurou pushed Xiao Jingrui towards Lin Luoxi.
"Big sister!" Xiao Jingrui, the troublemaker in Wang Yurou's words, was as docile as a quail in front of Lin Luoxi, and dared not act like a child at all.
"Zhili and the others are at the training ground. You can go find them now!" Looking at Xiao Jingrui, who seemed honest but had a mischievous glint in his eyes, Lin Luoxi refrained from calling him out and simply told him to go to the training ground.
"Ah! Sister, can I rest for a day first? I'll definitely go tomorrow." Yiting said she wanted to go right now, but Xiao Jingrui was only honest for three minutes before he immediately appeared and started bargaining with Lin Luoxi.
When Wang Yurou and Xiao Jingteng heard that their son dared to bargain with Lin Luoxi, they stood aside and watched the show, waiting to see their son get punished.
“Okay, then the training will be doubled tomorrow.” Lin Luoxi smiled gently, but her words sent a chill down Xiao Jingrui’s spine.
"Sister, are you a female demon? I'm your own brother! I traveled all this way to find you, and this is how you treat me?"
Upon hearing that the training would be doubled, the kid couldn't hold back anymore and broke down, tears streaming down his face.
"Mother, Father, you should go back and rest first!"
