Chapter 696 Looking forward to returning to the village



Airport.

Li Mingqing and his family were waiting for the flight in the lobby.

Just a few minutes after I sat down, I saw Xu Feiyue walking towards me quickly.

"Why are you here? Are you going out of town?"

"I heard yesterday that you were on today's shift, so I came to see you off. Also, the gift you gave me was so precious. My whole family was shocked when I opened it at home."

"That's impossible. Your father has seen all kinds of good things in his position."

"I've seen it before, but I've never seen anyone give such a valuable gift. The ginseng must be quite old, and it's so well preserved. I think it must have become a spirit."

Xu Feiyue said slightly exaggeratedly.

Li Mingqing smiled and said, "I picked them from the mountain behind my hometown."

"Did you pick them yourself? I'll go visit your place when I get a chance. I heard the mountains and rivers are beautiful, perfect for a spring outing."

"Okay, I'll treat you to some authentic country wood-fired rice."

Niuniu whispered, "Mom, when did Dad and Teacher Xu become so familiar with each other?"

“We’ve always been familiar with each other.”

"I thought Dad only interacted with teachers when he was at school, but I didn't expect he also interacted with them privately. Oh, and the teacher even asked me to persuade Dad to come to school and teach more classes."

Sun Jiaxue smiled and said, "Your father wishes he could split himself into two, he's too busy to handle everything."

"After I graduate, I can go to my dad's hospital to help," Niu Niu said confidently.

"Okay," Sun Jiaxue said gently.

As they were about to register, Xu Feiyue said, "Safe takeoff and landing."

——

xx county seat.

Li Mingqing and his family went home first.

At the door, Sun Jiaxue said, "Don't go in yet. I'll go in and clean it up before going in."

"Mom, I'll help."

"We'll help too."

When I opened the door, there was no musty smell or dust.

Clean and bright, as if it had just been cleaned.

"You can tell my mother cleaned it. It's spotless, just as it was when we left."

"I even specifically told my mother that since the hotel is usually so busy, there's no need for cleaning. It seems like they've been cleaning for the past six months."

Sun Jiaxue said gratefully.

Li Mingqing said, "Mom definitely comes once every two weeks."

Niuniu put down her backpack, changed into a pink coat and said, "I'm going to the hotel to see my grandparents."

Xiaohong and Xiaozhe also said, "We'll go too."

"Come on, each of you carry a box."

Li Mingqing took out the health gift box he brought back from the capital.

These are specially made for the elderly.

Not to mention that it can cure diseases, it should be able to replenish qi and nourish blood.

Sun Jiaxue said, "I'll go too."

Restaurant.

Old Lady Li asked, "Why haven't the Mingqing family returned yet? The New Year is only four days away."

"Soon, I'll definitely be back for the New Year. The capital is busy too. The more capable you are, the less time you have to spare. We old couple can't help at all in this small county town, alas."

Old man Li sighed.

"That's exactly what happened. I've seen so many reports about Ming and Qing in the newspapers. What our son is doing is a great cause, one that benefits the country and the people. Old man, it's all up to us to not hold him back."

Mrs. Li is open-minded.

Children always fly away when they grow up.

Even if they live in the same village, once the children get married and separate from the family, they will rarely pay attention to their parents as they work hard to build their own families.

Not to mention they are not in the same city.

But Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue care very much about the old couple.

Clothes or food are mailed to me every now and then.

To be precise, in the end, the closest people to you are not your parents or your children, but your spouse.

Spouse, spouse, accompany you in old age.

"Clean up the shop and close it, put up the Spring Festival couplets, and go back to the village in the afternoon."

As soon as Old Man Li finished speaking, he looked up and saw Li Mingqing and his family walking in with smiles on their faces.

Mrs. Li was surprised and said, "When did you come back? You didn't tell us in advance that we would pick you up at the station."

"Mom, I just got back."

"Oh my, I haven't seen Xiaohong and Xiaozhe for three months. They've grown taller. It looks like they're going to surpass Mingqing."

Li Mingqing said: "You are worthy of being my son."

He looked around the shop and asked, "Dad, where are Zhang Chun'er and Wu Xiaoya? Aren't they quitting?"

"How could I not do such a good job? Both of them got married yesterday, so I didn't let them come. Anyway, it's almost New Year's Day and there are basically no people here. I plan to close the store today."

Old man Li explained.

"Get married? So soon, but I'm definitely old enough to get married."

Old Lady Li said excitedly, "Both girls are married in the county town. I met the men when they came to dinner. They've been together for about three months. It can be said that they have finally found happiness after all the hardships they've endured."

"A worker from the county town?"

"Not really. I'm a small businessman. Even though I push a small cart every day, I make quite a bit of money every month. The villagers are extremely jealous of Zhang Chun'er and Wu Xiaoya's good marriages."

Sun Jiaxue said: "It's also fate."

"It's fate. Anyway, their acquaintance was quite unconventional. They both disliked each other at the beginning."

Old Mrs. Li smiled when she talked about this.

Li Mingqing joked, "Mom, I thought you were the one who set them up."

"I don't have that much ability. To be frank, if things don't go well in the future, I'll be in big trouble."

Old man Li also said: "At our age, we don't need to worry about these things."

After Li Mingqing put up the Spring Festival couplets, the old couple followed him home.

Sun Jiaxue took out the New Year clothes she bought for them.

"Dad, Mom, you two try putting them on."

"Jiaxue, please don't spend this money on us anymore. You buy us new clothes every time the season changes, and we can never wear them all. They're all made of good materials, so I can't bear to wear them."
