Something happened. This is not going to be bloody.

In the blink of an eye, it was Song Wei's second year of high school. Although he had studied in Xiangyang County for many years, he was a transfer student. Now that the college entrance examination was approaching, his family planned to return to Kyoto to accompany Song Wei in preparation for it.

Song Wei is already a big boy, and he is also the little pillar of the family. His resentment towards his father has long been worn away by his companionship over the years. As he grows older, he knows more about his father's difficulties, so now all he has left is admiration and pride.

The family of three discussed going to Kyoto at home.

Zhou Leng was afraid that Song Junyang would be addicted to the past again after going to Kyoto, but he also felt uneasy leaving him alone in the county.

Song Jun Yang was the first to speak:

"The hot pot supermarket also needs people, and we can't hire people for this kind of business. I thought why don't you two go to Kyoto for a year, and come back after your child finishes the college entrance examination."

The mother and son looked at each other. They were both worried about the other being alone at home. Although Song Cao still lived here, she couldn't stay with her second uncle all the time, not to mention that she was in a relationship now.

Zhou Leng frowned and thought for a while and said:

"Old Song, I understand why you don't want to go back to Kyoto. Besides, you have been in a much better condition in Xiangyang County these few years. I thought that before my son and I go to Kyoto, I will go to Laotun to bring my parents to live with us for a year. Since you feel guilty towards your parents, I think you should take this opportunity to make amends."

Song Junyang agreed with what his wife said, but he was not sure. After all, his father said before that he was used to staying in the old village. He asked uncertainly: "Can my parents come and live with us?"

Zhou Leng replied: "If you ask them to come and enjoy themselves, they will definitely not come. In this case, Song Wei should pack up everything first. Two days before the child and I leave, I will drive back to pick them up and make sure to bring my parents here."

Song Junyang smiled and joked: "You, since you learned how to drive and got the ticket, have you become addicted?"

Zhou Leng thought that I have been able to drive for a hundred or eighty years and I don’t have any addiction to it. She just didn’t want Song Junyang to go back and face his sister-in-law’s face. After all, a brother-in-law can’t always quarrel with his sister-in-law.

***

Zhou Leng called Song Jianguo in advance to tell him that he would go back to pick them up and bring them to the county to stay for a few days, so the old couple packed their things.

The Song family was considered to be well-off in the old village, with three tiled houses and a tidy courtyard.

Zhou Leng parked the car. Ge Ying was already waiting at the gate. Seeing her daughter-in-law driving back alone, she was a little surprised and asked, "Xiaoqin, have you learned to drive?"

"Ah, Jun Yangfei asked me to learn, so I learned it. Mom, let's go into the house. I just want to discuss something with you. Big brother and sister-in-law are not at home?"

Ge Ying thought that the eldest son's wife looked down on Lu Xiaoqin. When she heard that she was coming, she and her child went back to her parents' home. Now there were only the two of them at home. This was the case, but she couldn't say it that way.

Ge Ying replied with a smile: "Your sister-in-law has something to do at her parents' home. The three of them are there. Come in quickly."

At this time, a woman in her thirties came from not far away on the dirt road. Before she came up to him, she had already opened her mouth and shouted:

"Oh, this is my second sister-in-law, she looks so young. I haven't seen her come to the village often in all these years."

When Ge Ying saw the person coming, her face changed. This person was the girl from the Wan family whom she wanted to marry to Song Jun Yang.

Zhou Leng didn't know the other person and just smiled politely.

Ge Ying introduced: "This is Wan Mengyu, the daughter-in-law of the old Wang family in the front yard."

Zhou Leng nodded and said, "Mengyu, hello."

Wan Mengyu walked up to Zhou Leng and looked at him for a few times. She knew what the Song family meant at the beginning. She heard that their second son was a policeman. Although he was older than her and had been married, it would be good for him to live in the county. But there was no news later, and her family almost cut off contact with the Wan family.

Wan Mengyu's husband's family lived in the front yard of the Song family. She saw a car parked from a distance and wanted to make it uncomfortable for the other party, so she came over to talk. She said:

"Second sister-in-law, you guys in the city still have to support yourself. You're almost fifty now, but you look only in your thirties. I almost took your place back then, but who knew that you were so lucky."

Zhou Leng thought about what the other person said in her mind. She guessed the cause and effect almost exactly. She still smiled and said:

"Mengyu, actually you are wrong. I am only eighteen this year, and I do look a little old. My mother and I have something else to do today, so I won't invite you in for tea."

Ge Ying suppressed her smile and said, "Old Wan, my daughter-in-law and I will go to the courtyard first."

After the mother and daughter walked into the yard arm in arm and closed the door, Ge Yingcai realized that she was a little embarrassed.

Zhou Leng took her mother-in-law's hand and asked, "Mom, Dad is in the house, right? Let's go in and talk. I just happen to have something to discuss with you."

Ge Ying thought her daughter-in-law was going to talk about what happened just now, so she quickly explained: "Don't listen to her nonsense. You have always been a good daughter-in-law to your mother."

Zhou Leng replied: "Mom, it's not about this, let's go inside and talk."

The three of them sat on the kang.

Zhou Lengcai said, "Dad, Mom, I came to pick you up this time because I want you to live with us for a year."

The old couple both frowned.

Zhou Leng explained:

"Listen to me, Song Wei is about to enter his senior year of high school. I plan to take the child back to Kyoto to take the college entrance examination. I am worried about leaving Jun Yang alone in the county, so I want you two to help me look after him. For so many years, I have to tie Jun Yang up in the house for a few days every few months. He still has a drug addiction. I am afraid that Jun Yang will not be able to control himself this year, so I want you two to live in the county."

Song Jianguo frowned and asked, "Jun Yang hasn't touched that thing for so many years, right?"

Zhou Leng replied: "He has never touched it. I heard Jun Yang say that Dad, you have seen the older generation smoking opium. You should know how difficult it is to restrain yourself. It is really not easy for Jun Yang to persist until now, so I thought of bothering you two old people."

Ge Ying felt sad. She felt sorry for her son. Everyone said that her second son was living a good life in Kyoto. Who knew how much he had suffered? She quickly responded:

"Let's go today. We'll pack some more things and Xiaoqin and the child will go back to Kyoto. This is for Song Wei's sake. We can cook for Junyang and chat with him when we get to the county. Otherwise, wouldn't it be easy for our son to make mistakes when he's alone?"

Song Jianguo thought that if he went to the county for a year, he would not be able to help the old family with farm work. However, various matters had their priorities. By comparison, going to the county to keep an eye on Song Junyang was more important, so he nodded in agreement.

The three men packed up the old couple's things, got in the car, locked the door and left.

In the evening, Song Junzhi's family of three came back. They thought the old couple would be back after staying in the county for a few days, so they didn't pay much attention to them.
