The two of them quickly handed over to the staff of the car rental company and now followed the navigation to the city center.
It takes more than two hours to drive from the city to the village. Lu Yi first took Lin Zhizhi to a local large chain supermarket to buy some gifts.
The gift for grandma was placed in the suitcase, but Lin Zhizhi felt uneasy as she didn't bring any other gifts with her for her first visit.
The two of them decided to wait until they got off the high-speed train before going to the city to buy the things. This way they wouldn't need to bring too many things on the road. They could just buy some fruit gift boxes, milk and other nutritious supplements.
This way grandma can eat it at any time and she will be more likely to accept it.
…
After driving on the highway all the way, the two arrived at the entrance of the village at around five in the afternoon.
On the left side of the village entrance there is a large stone with red words engraved on it, which read Kaiyang Village.
When leaving the modern city, the road continued to show lush trees and rolling peaks, some high, some low, forming various shapes. Two or three peaks combined together look like a sleeping beauty lying on her side.
Entering the village, the countryside in the evening, the setting sun cast the entire mountain village red, white clouds were floating, and the sky was full of colorful clouds. From a long distance, you could still see the chimneys of several households moving warmly and rising, as if they were going to play with the clouds.
Although it is winter, the surrounding trees are still full of green. The whole village is like an ink painting, painted with tranquility and leisure.
The country roads were narrow, so Lu Yi slowed down his car when entering the village. When driving to his grandmother's house, he met an old man with a hoe on his shoulder and a straw hat in one hand. There was a little mud on his trouser legs.
The old man saw the car approaching from a distance and took the initiative to stop and pull over to let the two people pass first.
Lu Yi rolled down the car window and slowly stopped the car in front of the old man. He smiled and greeted him, "Qi Gong, you're back from the fields!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Gong took a closer look at Lu Yi, put down the hoe and stood in front of him, with both hands on the hoe handle, and laughed happily, "Lu Yi?! I didn't recognize you at first! If you hadn't called me, I wouldn't have recognized you."
"I heard from your grandmother a long time ago that you were coming back for the New Year and that you would bring your wife back with you. She must be very happy."
Lu Yi responded with a smile.
Qi Gong glanced at Lin Zhizhi who was sitting in the passenger seat and said, "You are so lucky to have such a pretty wife."
Lin Zhizhi could clearly feel that Lu Yi was relaxed and happy after returning to the village, as if he had finally returned home.
When Lin Zhizhi heard Qigong mention her, she quickly leaned forward and smiled obediently.
Lu Yi gave the two of them a brief introduction to each other. When introducing Lin Zhizhi, Lu Yi smiled with a proud and arrogant look on his face.
That little expression made Qigong want to click his tongue.
I didn't expect that at this age I would still be forced to eat so much dog food.
After chatting for a while, Qi Gong urged the two to go home quickly.
"You guys should go home first. When you have time, come to Qigong's house to play. I think your grandma must be waiting anxiously. Don't let her know that I kept you guys company and delayed her from seeing you. She will be angry with me."
Lu Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, then we'll leave first, Mr. Qi."
“Go ahead.”
Lu Yi drove home with ease, the smile on his face never faded. Seeing this, Lin Zhizhi also became happy.
Lu Yi pointed to the corner ahead with one hand, "Wife, turn in and go a few hundred meters ahead and you'll arrive."
Lin Zhizhi looked over there and felt inexplicably nervous again. She hurriedly pulled down the mirror and quickly checked her appearance. She reached out and touched her hair to make sure there was no problem, then straightened her clothes out of concern.
Lin Zhizhi looked at Lu Yi nervously, "Hubby, I'm a little nervous, what should I do?"
Lu Yi saw Lin Zhizhi's operation from the corner of his eye. He turned the steering wheel and turned into the car, while comforting her softly, "It's okay, don't be nervous, I'm here. I believe my grandma will like you very much."
Lu Yi wanted to comfort Lin Zhizhi again, but when he turned around and used his eyesight that was good enough for him to be a pilot to see a group of people and the words written on the banners in the small square for villagers on the way home, he paused for a moment.
After seeing the familiar figure standing at the front of the line, she came back to her senses, grinned like a child, looked at Lin Zhizhi who was still seeking comfort, and said with a smile, "Grandma likes you very much and welcomes you."
Lin Zhizhi also looked forward. At this time, the car was only two or three hundred meters away from the crowd.
I saw about twenty people in front, including old people, middle-aged uncles, middle-aged aunts and children. It looked like a big family, and at this time a group of people stood together in several rows.
Around the group of people, there were some villagers watching the fun in groups of three or four.
The two men on the left and right sides of the first row held a red banner that read:
Welcome home the most beautiful granddaughter-in-law Lin Zhizhi!
Standing at the front of the line was a person with short hair, black hair mixed with some white hair, a few wrinkles on his face, wearing a brand new festive red patterned coat. He had a smile on his face, and was looking straight at the approaching car, with tears flashing in his eyes.
When Lin Zhizhi saw the old woman, she inexplicably knew the answer in her mind. The old lady was Lu Yi's grandmother.
