"I've been in charge of the family for only a little over a year now. Why does it feel like so much time has passed?"
"Maybe you don't like the capital city and you miss home?"
"Not really. You're all here. I don't miss home. I just feel like I've been here for a long time."
"Of course it's been a while. We even have grandchildren now. Do you think it can be long?"
"Yeah, I'm really happy when I think about going back and seeing my parents."
"I know you miss your parents. I'll go back and take them home to stay for a while. It'll be a good opportunity to catch up with Mr. Qian."
"become."
Song wanted to laugh when she thought that Old Man Qian even wanted to bring a bird home.
"The old man is so funny now, he actually brought a bird home."
"He wanted to show off. No one in the village had ever seen a talking bird."
Zhao Dashu felt a little jealous. He still hadn't been able to get a parrot. This bird was too rare and there were very few of them in the city.
He had reminded the bird seller countless times, but to no avail.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't disappointed. Alas, he might not be able to raise a good bird in this lifetime.
The carriage slowly left the city. Zhao Dashu lifted the curtain and said, "Out of the city."
The last time I came to the city gate was to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law off, but this time they went home by themselves.
To be honest, Zhao Dashu is quite looking forward to going home. It will be lively there and he can eat and chat with a group of brothers again.
"Wife, where shall we live when we return home?"
"You want to live in the village, right?" Song knew him very well and knew what he was thinking at a glance.
"Hehe, you still understand me."
"Didn't you hear what my daughter said? We have to go back to live in our new home for a while. She wants to see if everyone at home is still behaving well. We'll stay in the village for a few days first, then we'll go back and come back to the village after the New Year."
Zhao Dashu thought about it and it was okay, because he did have to settle the accounts for the year, and he didn't want to work so hard and then let a bunch of servants take advantage of him. He didn't want to be a sucker.
The journey was extremely boring. In the end, Zhao Xiaoyu and Song sat in one car, Xiao Lei and Qian Youfu sat in another car, and the old man wanted to sit with Zhao Dashu. His grandson was too boring, and he really didn't want to sit with him.
This arrangement is very good. Those who don’t talk sit together. What a good arrangement.
We walked and stopped, stopped and walked, and it took us about forty years to reach the county town.
"Finally back!"
Zhao Dashu felt that his bones were all sore from sitting all the way, and now his buttocks felt uncomfortable just seeing the bench.
"We haven't arrived yet, Dad. We've only reached the county town. Youfu will take care of the things in the shop for a while, and we still have to continue on our journey."
Zhao Xiaoyu also felt uncomfortable along the way. Traveling in the snow was truly difficult, and it was a wonder the old man managed to hold on. I heard that Dad didn't dare lie down himself the entire way, so he let the old man do all the rest.
"How far is it from the county town to our village?"
Zhao Dashu's hands and legs were shaking. He just wanted to move non-stop.
"Dad, Youfu is back. Let's go quickly. We'll be home soon."
“Here I come!”
With the support of his family, Zhao Dashu got on the carriage.
He felt that he would not want to ride in a carriage for some time.
"Old lady, your youngest son has returned to the village!"
Old Sun, who was lying on the kang and was so bored that she cracked her fingers every day, immediately opened her eyes when she heard this. "What did you say? The third brother is coming home?"
"Well, the concierge just said that he just got back today and is very tired. He should be resting at home. He will definitely come to see you in the next two days."
Everyone in the room was happy. How could they not be happy when their real master came back?
Staying in the house all day with the old lady, chatting about random things, they must be very frustrated, okay?
Old Mrs. Sun's drooping face finally showed a smile. It was great that the third son was back. She had been looking forward to her son's return since the beginning of winter.
After waiting and waiting, the person is finally back and she can finally talk to her son.
She really has had enough of her life now.
The eldest and second sons seldom come to see her, and even if they do, they don't like to listen to her nagging. The daughter-in-law is nowhere to be seen. As for the others, forget it, they will disappear if they find that they are not doing well.
She was feeling very anxious. There were only people serving her in the room. What else could they talk about every day?
It’s a good thing that the third sister came. She doesn’t want to live here anymore. She wants to move to a place with more people.
She wanted more company.
Huang's heart skipped a beat.
"Old Madam, now that they're back, do you have anything you want to mention to the Third Master?"
Old Sun smiled creepily, "I want to go home with the third son. He has a large family and many servants. It will be a lively occasion if I follow him on a specific day."
Come on, she guessed it right. The old woman was going to do something weird when she smiled like that.
No matter how much I try to persuade him to live with the Third Master, no one will agree.
Don’t you know what you are like?
Even ghosts are afraid of it.
Several people looked at each other. Huang planned to tell the secret to the master after she fell asleep so that he could be prepared.
"Old lady, it's not easy for you to move like this. Besides, the living conditions here are so good, it's not suitable for you to follow them. They live in the capital. You can't go so far away."
Old Sun didn't think so. "I can definitely handle it. I've had enough of staying in the village. I really want to go out for a walk."
Her eyes were full of longing. Only after she lost her freedom did she realize how important freedom was to her.
"What will happen to those old sisters in Fucheng Village if you go there? Can you bear to leave? They all miss you very much."
Old Mrs. Sun smiled and said there was nothing to be reluctant about. She seemed to be a very cold-hearted person. She didn't care about anyone and just wanted to live a good life.
"I still want to follow the third brother."
Huang stopped talking. Come on, he's starting to get stuck in a rut again.
If she wasn't so difficult to please, would his son ignore her?
"I wonder what my son brought me this time?"
The corners of the person's mouth twitched. What else do you want? What else can you ask for after it's already like this?
After Zhao Dashu entered the village, several families heard the sound of the carriage and came out to take a look. They were very surprised to see that it was him and were busy greeting him.
He also always loves to chat with people. He chats with everyone he sees and gives each person a handful of candy.
Zhao Xiaoyu felt that his father was quite suitable for being a pyramid scheme leader, the kind who gave lectures to people every day to brainwash them.
Listen to what he said, even the dogs at the village entrance were coaxed into chasing the carriage and wagging their tails.
His eloquence is unparalleled.
"Mom, you were tricked into coming to the Zhao family by Dad's lies."
"That's right," Song was also very helpless. "How can a man like him chat with an old woman?"
"It would be great if he could talk. We can just let him take care of grandma's business and we can just go to grandma's house."
This time when she came back, she would at most go to Old Sun's place to go through the motions, and leave the rest to her father.
