When they fled the famine, they didn't have time to contact their families. Now that life has settled down, they all want to find out about their families.
Actually, I think I'm lucky. My brother is my only relative from my mother's side. We came out together when we were fleeing famine, and now we all live so close together, I don't have any worries at all.
.................
Meanwhile, Mu Dasheng had already arrived at Lin Dajiang's house. After listening to Mu Dasheng's words, Lin Dajiang took a puff of his pipe.
"Brother Dasheng, actually I've been planning to go back to my hometown recently."
But we're old folks now, and our family definitely won't agree to let us go back on our own, so we need to discuss this with the younger generation."
Mu Dasheng nodded.
“You’re right, today is the day the results are released. Chunping and Jianfei will definitely be back today, and we can discuss it together then.”
The messenger who brought the good news had just left when Mu Chunping and Lin Jianfei entered the village. After lunch, Lin Jianfei and Mu Chunping were called aside to discuss the matter of returning to their hometown to relocate the graves.
Mu Chunping and Lin Jianfei did not object to this and expressed their willingness to go.
That evening, Lin Dajiang gathered the people from the original Shanglin Village together, and everyone was deeply moved when they heard that they were going back to their hometown.
Unfortunately, the journey was too long, and it was impossible for everyone to return. After careful consideration, only six representatives were sent, including Mu Chunping and Lin Jianfei.
The next day, Lin Dajiang made a special trip to the Mu family.
"I came here to ask if Ningbao will be going back to his hometown this time?"
Upon hearing Lin Dajiang's question, Mu Dasheng was taken aback.
"Well..., can Chunping and the others go?"
Should Ningbao come along?
I hadn't planned on having Ningbao go, but she mentioned wanting to go with me. Does Dajiang think we should bring Ningbao along?
Lin Dajiang hesitated for a moment,
"well!
I know that traveling long distances is indeed tiring, and I shouldn't let Ningbao, a young girl, suffer along with me.
But I don't know why, I always feel more at ease with Ningbao by my side.
Although I've heard that the disaster has passed in our area, no one knows what it's like now that it's been five years.
We all know very well how many people died on that road. Everyone knows Ning Bao's abilities. With her by our side, even the most powerful ghosts and monsters on the road would not dare to provoke them.
Those who are going back this time are all the pillars of their families; if anything happens to them, it could be disastrous…”
On the other side, Ning Bao was also worried about Mu Chunping's return to his hometown. She had just consulted a fortune teller and found that the trip would not go smoothly.
Lingling looked at Ningbao, who was sighing and groaning, then plopped down on Ningbao's shoulder and nudged her with her paw.
“My lord, if you’re worried, just come along. What’s there to worry about?”
"I want to go too, but my grandpa and the others won't let me. There's nothing I can do about it."
"What's there to worry about? At worst, we can just sneak off and follow them. That shouldn't be too difficult for our master."
Should we secretly follow them?
Ningbao had thought about this before, but she felt that it was something she did before she was five years old, and now that she was almost ten, running away from home was really childish.
............
Lin Haijia's son, Lin Zhiwei, was standing nervously in front of his mother.
"Mother, what's your decision regarding proposing marriage to the Mu family?"
Lin Hai's wife, Xu, glanced at her son.
"Look how anxious you are. Don't worry, I've been keeping this in mind. I'll go find Sister-in-law Yuzhen in a bit."
The marriage proposal can't be rushed. I'll ask Sister-in-law Yuzhen to sound out the Lai Di family first.
We'll go if they're interested; I don't want to end up not only losing our in-law relationship but also our neighborly relationship.
