Chapter 203 New Sujia Village



"That's great, that's great, we don't have to separate!" The villagers were stunned at first, and then cheers rang out one after another.

An old man was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. He said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Lu is such a good man! How can we repay such great kindness?"

Several children nearby also clapped and cheered. Although they didn't quite understand the interests involved, they cheered when they saw the adults so happy.

The women hugged each other, the sadness on their faces had long disappeared, replaced by relief and joy.

The whole camp was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and the villagers expressed their gratitude to Lu Youan in words.

Su Wenxuan was standing in the crowd. After hearing the good news, a bright light instantly flashed in her eyes, and her face, which was originally a little pale due to worry, was also filled with joy.

She tilted her head slightly, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a row of neat, white teeth. Her smile was bright and moving.

When I thought about being spared the pain of separation from my relatives in my mother's family, it felt like a warm current was flowing slowly through my heart, dispelling all the previous uneasiness.

At this time, Su Wenfei jumped to Su Wenxuan's side like a happy little deer. She held her sister's hand tightly, and the little hand trembled slightly with excitement.

"Sister, that's great, we don't have to separate!" Su Wenfei's voice was clear and pleasant, echoing in the air like a silver bell, and her words were full of irrepressible joy and excitement.

Su Wenxuan gently held her sister's hand and nodded continuously, "Yeah, that's great."

Her voice was gentle and firm, and her eyes were full of expectations and longings for the future.

The two sisters smiled at each other, and their smiles showed gratitude to Lu Youan, as well as cherishment and satisfaction for family reunion.

As everyone was eagerly waiting, the time for allocating villages finally arrived.

The village chief, holding Lu Youan's letter, looked a little nervous but also a little expectant as he walked steadily towards the official in charge of the distribution.

The official's face was serious, his eyes revealing the indifference of official business. The village chief bowed respectfully, then presented the letter with both hands and said, "Sir, here is a letter. Please take a look."

The official took the letter and read it carefully. His eyebrows raised slightly, a hint of imperceptible surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he nodded slightly.

Following the instructions in the letter, the officials loudly announced that all the people in Sujia Village would be assigned together.

He looked at the village chief and said kindly, "You're lucky. Last year, a village was plundered by robbers, and now it's deserted. But that village is quite large, and with so many of you, it's just the right place for you to be settled."

Upon hearing this, the village chief was delighted, but still a little worried. He hurriedly asked, "Sir, is the village safe now? I wonder how far it is from the capital?"

The village chief's eyes were full of worry and concern. He knew that the safety of the villagers was of vital importance, and the distance from the provincial capital was also related to many conveniences and possible dangers in their future lives.

Because of the letter, the official in charge of the distribution was exceptionally kind. He raised his chin slightly, and replied patiently with a relaxed expression, "Don't worry, everyone. The bandits have long been apprehended by the government, and there are no longer any bandit threats around the village.

As for the distance, it's relatively easy to reach. At a normal walking pace, you can arrive in about six days. Furthermore, the land in the village is very fertile and suitable for farming. This is truly a good place for you to be relocated."

After hearing these words, the village chief's originally tense face instantly brightened with joy. Filled with gratitude, he stepped forward, bowed deeply to the official, and said sincerely, "Thank you very much today, sir. The entire Sujia Village is deeply grateful."

After saying this, the village chief turned around and led everyone to leave in an orderly manner.

Next, they need to go to the government office to handle the change of household registration, transfer their household registration to Jeju, and then find the village assigned to them as soon as possible to start a new chapter in their lives. Although everyone's face is a little tired from the long journey, they can't hide their longing and expectation for the future.

After a six-day long journey, the group finally saw the village that would become their new home in exhaustion and anticipation.

Since the original name of this place has lost its meaning with the desolation of the old village, and most of them came from Sujia Village, out of commemoration of the past and expectation for the future, they unanimously decided to rename the village Sujia Village.

The moment I stepped into Sujia Village, a long-lost sense of belonging arose spontaneously.

Around the village, vast expanses of land unfolded before their eyes like an unfolding scroll.

The soil is soft and dark in color, emitting an attractive luster under the sunlight, as if silently telling of its fertility and richness.

Everyone's eyes fell on this piece of land, and their hearts were filled with excitement, as if they were holding countless lively deer in their arms. Their heartbeats echoed in their ears like thunder, as if they were about to burst through their chests.

"That's great!" Someone was the first to shout out this cheer that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time, which instantly ignited everyone's emotions.

Everyone cheered and hugged each other, with tears in their eyes. Those were tears of relief for finally finding peace after going through hardships, and tears of hope for a better life in the future.

Having land means they have a foundation for survival and the capital to rebuild their homes. The future will be full of hope and sunshine, and a beautiful new life is slowly unfolding.

There are quite a lot of houses in the village, scattered around.

However, due to lack of care and maintenance for a long time, many houses are in a dilapidated state.

A lot of the plaster on the walls has fallen off, revealing the mottled brick and stone structure inside; the thatch on the roof is also sparse and incomplete, trembling in the breeze, as if it will be blown away at any time.

Many beams have become rotten due to moisture, making the entire house look shaky and precarious, giving people a feeling of being in danger of wind and rain.

But everyone has come a long and arduous journey, and sleeping in the open air has become commonplace. They can sleep peacefully in the wilderness, so naturally they will not feel disgusted with these slightly dilapidated houses in front of them.

In their eyes, these houses can be revitalized and become a warm haven that can shelter them from wind and rain as long as they are carefully renovated.

Soon, everyone was busy, traveling around the village, looking for a suitable place to live.

The Su family found a rather spacious thatched house.

The layout of this house is very reasonable, with four rooms and a kitchen. The most satisfying thing is the yard outside, which is very large and the land is relatively flat.

In the future, you can cultivate a vegetable garden in the yard.

Yao Qingshuang has always adhered to the attitude of never mistreating herself in life.

In her space, there is a huge wealth worth half a gold mountain, and this confidence makes her unwilling to treat her family unfairly.
