Chapter 87 An Uninvited Guest

"Let's go! Take a boat to the city! We'll take Xiaohua and Xiaochuan with us! Let's go shopping in the city!"

Jiang Rou was unusually happy, and it was rare for her to show her excited side as a girl.

She suddenly mentioned the names of Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua.

The two children, who were originally making noises, looked up in confusion.

They looked at Jiang Rou and Zhou Chongshan, but didn't know what had happened.

Jiang Rou walked over, hugged the two children happily, and announced happily.

"Xiaohua, Xiaochuan, let's go to the city tomorrow! Take a boat to the city! We can sell a lot of things in the city, and there will be a lot of delicious food."

Zhou Xiaohua was still a little confused, blinking her big eyes.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked slightly stunned.

He hesitated and scratched his hands.

He asked, "Can Xiaohua and I go too?"

"Of course! We'll go as a family!"

Jiang Rou announced loudly.

Since they had decided to go out to the city tomorrow, the family turned off the lights and went to bed early that night.

Just lie down.

Everyone has different moods.

Zhou Chongshan thought about what Jiang Rou had said before, and seeing her happy expression, he felt that he had done something to make Jiang Rou happy.

The man was somewhat satisfied.

Jiang Rou's happiness became his happiness.

Jiang Rou closed her eyes and began to plan what to buy after arriving in the city.

Since she traveled to this world, she opened her eyes and landed on this island, but she had never seen the city in the 1970s.

Jiang Rou was somewhat expectant and somewhat curious.

She was as excited as a child going on a spring outing tomorrow.

On the other side.

Zhou Xiaohua, who usually fell asleep the easiest, didn't fall asleep either.

Her little hands grabbed Zhou Xiaochuan's clothes, moving from time to time.

The little girl had a lot of things in her heart that she wanted to say to Zhou Xiaochuan.

What is a city? What is delicious? Can it be as delicious as candied haws?

The city...is the city really that good?

But the little girl's doubts were ultimately not responded to.

Because at this time Zhou Xiaochuan's mind was not on Zhou Xiaohua.

Even Zhou Xiaochuan was thinking... Can he really go to the city?

For a child from a small rural area, the "big city" is a very far away place, or even a place that he or she can never reach in his or her lifetime.

After all, Zhou Xiaochuan was older, and he had heard adults' yearning for the "city" from their conversations.

It's a place I wouldn't even dare to dream of.

And now.

Can he go to the city now?

Even if it's just a walk and a look.

and……

Jiang Rou still wanted to take them with her.

…

The next morning.

Probably because they didn’t sleep well last night, Zhou Xiaohua and Zhou Xiaochuan both looked a little tired. There were dark circles under their eyes, and they looked listless, like withered saplings.

Even when I eat breakfast, I don’t feel as energetic as usual.

Do you have a fever?

Jiang Rou touched the foreheads of the two children and fortunately their body temperatures were normal.

Zhou Chongshan said on the side.

"After we get on board, let them sleep for a while. They will be fine after they get enough sleep."

"That's all there is to it."

Jiang Rou nodded, reluctantly feeling relieved.

After dinner.

Jiang Rou packed some things for the journey, carried a water bottle, and prepared to go out.

Before leaving.

Jiang Rou went to Zhao Guifen's home.

Firstly, he told Zhao Guifen that they were going to the city and would be away for a few days.

Secondly, I also wanted to ask Zhao Guifen to help look after the house and take care of the chickens in the yard.

There is nothing else to do.

When Zhao Guifen heard that their whole family was going to the city, she was extremely jealous.

"Sister Rou, just go and have fun. It's a rare opportunity to go to the city, so you must seize it. Don't worry about things at home, I'm here for you! But you can also help my sister-in-law with one thing..."

Talking.

Zhao Guifen walked into the house and then came out in a hurry.

After she came out, she stuffed three cloth coupons into Jiang Rou's hand.

"Sister Rou, when you go to the city, please bring me some cloth. Pick out patterns and colors that the children can wear. My eldest and second sons have grown taller, and they need to change their clothes again."

"Sister Guifen, don't worry, I will definitely bring it back."

"Okay, okay, be careful on the road and have fun."

Jiang Rou waved to Zhao Guifen, then followed Zhou Chongshan and took the two children to the dock.

The pier is much more lively.

This day is a day with transport ships, and many villagers on the island go to and from other places on this day.

When Zhou Chongshan and Jiang Rou boarded the boat, the person on guard was actually Song Yan.

"Zhou Tuan, sister-in-law!"

When Song Yan saw the people, he immediately stepped forward to greet them and helped Jiang Rou carry Zhou Xiaohua onto the boat.

He was escorted all the way into the cabin and found a seat to sit down.

Then.

Zhou Chongshan and Song Yan walked aside and talked, probably explaining some things that Song Yan should pay attention to when Zhou Chongshan was not around.

Song Yan listened carefully and nodded continuously.

in the cabin.

Jiang Rou looked through the glass and saw the endless sea outside.

The blue sea water, with the wind, rolls up layer upon layer of waves.

It was a sunny day, and even the waves were dazzling.

Zhou Xiaohua and Zhou Xiaochuan found everything very novel.

When they came to the island, it was brought to them by their fellow villagers.

They had no relatives around at the time, and it was the first time for the two children to go away from home. They were so scared that they huddled in a corner and didn't even dare to go near the window.

I was so nervous the whole way that I had no time to look at the scenery around me.

Now with Zhou Chongshan and Jiang Rou around, the two children's moods have completely changed.

Carefully, he moved his little butt closer to the window.

"Xiaohua, Xiaochuan, come and sit over here!"

Jiang Rou waved to the two children and pulled them to sit by the window.

"Don't be afraid, we are in the boat now and we are safe."

"Look... this is the ocean... isn't it super huge?"

"Look there! Do you see that flying bird? It's a seagull~"

Jiang Rou gestured with her fingers.

Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua's eyes kept moving along Jiang Rou's fingers, looking at new things.

After Song Yan left.

When Zhou Chongshan turned around, he saw Jiang Rou and the two children lying on the window.

The sunlight shines through the glass and falls on the faces of the three people, reflecting their smiles.

…

At this moment.

The Zhou family courtyard, which was already deserted, welcomed an uninvited guest.
