The children said goodbye to Wang Yingying reluctantly.

Wang Yingying bought them a lot of snacks, filling up half the car, and said they were going to eat them on the way.

After getting on the carriage, several children sat in it, crossed their legs happily and hummed little songs.

Xiaoman just felt that this tune was quite familiar.

Seems to be......

——A big river with wide waves.

——The wind blows the fragrance of rice flowers to both sides.

——My home is on the shore.

——I am used to hearing the boatman’s call,

——I’m used to seeing the white sails on the ship.

The song that Xu Wenyan was humming should be a song from that period of his life. It was obviously a relatively grand song, but Xiaoman always felt that it carried a hint of sadness.

He often sings this song.

Xiaoman asked him about this song, and he said that this song is his reverie of his world, but of course it’s mainly because he likes it.

I didn’t expect these little guys could hum.

The two carriages soon arrived at the Luo family. Mrs. Luo and Xiao Chai were at the door of the mansion. Xiao Chai was carrying a large bag, and Mrs. Luo was holding a small embroidered bag in her hand.

"mother!"

Luo Sanyuan got out of the car and took the package from Mrs. Luo.

Mrs. Luo looked at the little kids behind Xiaoman. She was shocked at first, then she smiled kindly.

"Oh, no wonder you came to see me so late, you all have children now, so I can be a grandmother too!"

Mrs. Luo leaned over and looked at Chen Dong: "You look so attractive."

"Mom, this is my brother's child." Luo Sanyuan explained quickly.

Mrs. Luo looked around and said, "There are three little ones here. One of them must be yours."

"Mom, neither." Xiaoman smiled softly.

Mrs. Luo showed a trace of regret in her eyes, but she still rubbed Chen Dong's little face: "Your brother's child is also my grandson. Come, call me grandma."

Chen Dong looked at Xiaoman with some fear, and Xiaoman nodded.

"Grandma...Grandma."

"Hey!" Mrs. Luo got into Xiaoman's car, wanting to stay with the children.

Rong Xiaoliu followed Luo Sanyuan tactfully.

"Mrs. Luo...Mom. Are you just taking some things with you?" Xiaoman asked while driving the carriage.

"Well, there's nothing to bring." Mrs. Luo said as she groped for something in her sleeve.

Soon she took out a milky white jade pendant and a pair of bracelets.

One bracelet is wider and gold, and the other is narrower and silver.

"Mother has nothing to tell you. Mother knows you are a good child. Sanyuan has been naughty since he was young. He must have caused you a lot of trouble."

Mrs. Luo had a kind face. Such a gentle woman was completely different from the fierce image I met on the first day.

"No, Luo Sanyuan is very obedient and will help me with the work."

"That kid deserves to be punished. Don't spoil him. Beat him when he deserves to be beaten. He is very tough."

Xiaoman could see that Mrs. Luo was very caring towards Luo Sanyuan.

“This gold bracelet should have been given to you, but my boy’s hands are too rough, and silver doesn’t look good on him.

Mother, I think this silver suits you. Later, I will buy you a set of gold. This jade pendant is for you.

And here is a 10,000 tael silver note."

Seeing the ten silver notes in Mrs. Luo's hand, Xiaoman was completely stunned. The Luo family was not a wealthy family, and having a few thousand taels was already a great fortune.

Moreover, this was the second time he met Mrs. Luo and he gave her such a big gift, which might not be a good idea.

"Mom, this is not possible."

Mrs. Luo frowned: "Why not? I will give my future..." She was supposed to be the daughter-in-law, but somehow she became the mother-in-law. Now Mrs. Luo didn't know what to say.

"It's for you two anyway, so keep it."

Mrs. Luo was very tough and didn't give Xiaoman any chance to refuse.

"Mom, you must have sold all the houses." Xiaoman held the banknotes and felt warm in his heart.

"I don't need that thing now. If I keep it, it will just give the state government a bargain. I have worked hard for most of my life to save this, and I still have three yuan left."

Mrs. Luo said earnestly, "Xiao Chai has been with us for more than ten years. He is a trustworthy child who can endure hardships. We can leave any work to him in the future."

Xiaoman chatted with Mrs. Luo for a long time, and in her, Xiaoman really found the feeling of a mother.

Very warm.

Mrs. Luo took care of the little ones along the way. She loved these kids very much.

Looking at the mountains, rivers and plants in the Central Plains, I always feel as if I am in another world.

The border was really desolate. Apart from the orchard that Xu Wenyan had them plant, there were no other green places to be found.

But it also has its own unique beauty.

Yellow sand, endless grassland, and snow-covered ground.

The beauty there is also unique.

As long as the country is good, if you get tired of living there, just come back and live in Jixiang Village.

..........

Jixiang Village, Sanyan Drinks.

"Boss, give me a glass of iced watermelon juice!"

"I want it too, I want it too!"

Wang Dongmei entertained them enthusiastically: "Yes, we have everything! We also have a set meal today, with fried chicken steak for only 55 cents, would you like to get a set meal?"

"What a good deal! We came from out of town because we heard that the watermelon juice here is fresh and sweet, and it's unparalleled, so we came here just for its reputation. We didn't expect that this also comes with a set meal."

Judging from the accents of these people, they are indeed speaking Beijing dialect.

Wang Dongmei yelled and asked Yang Miao to get ready.

"Hey, doesn't our store have a branch in Beijing now? Why don't you go there to drink?"

"Boss, you don't know that all the watermelon juice in the capital is monopolized by the nobles and dignitaries. Common people like us can't easily drink it!

And one cup costs 100 coins! You only charge 55 coins with the chicken chop!

It’s a real bargain, a real bargain.”

An old man sitting in a private room laughed and said, "Haha, you don't realize how far away this place is from the capital. We are just a small county town, while the capital is very prosperous."

"That's right, sir. That's right."

"Boss, I want six summer packages." A gentle male voice sounded in Wang Dongmei's ears. She stopped what she was doing and the smile on her face became even wider. This was a big order.

"Okay, six..."

When Wang Dongmei saw who was coming, she was completely stunned.

"Aunt Dongmei!"

Chen Dong had already run to the counter. Wang Dongmei lowered her head and her eyes instantly became moist: "Oh, our little Chen Dong!"

Wang Dongmei picked up Chen Dong and kissed his little face again and again.

"Sister Dongmei." Xiaoman also greeted with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah. You guys are finally back. Where is Xu Wenyan? He hasn't shown up yet. He really deserves to be punished."

Wang Dongmei stretched her neck and looked again and again behind Xiaoman.

"Wen Yan didn't come back."

"Ah? What's wrong? Did something happen?!" Wang Dongmei was obviously anxious.

Xiaoman could only patiently explain it to Wang Dongmei.

"So this is ah."

"That brat, he didn't even come back to see us."

After Wang Dongmei finished expressing her feelings, she quickly invited a few people to the room upstairs.

The downstairs is already full.

"Mrs. Luo, this is your first time in Feng County, right? Come, let's sit upstairs."

The store has just the right amount of staff, but being so busy every day, I guess everyone must be very tired.

Wang Dongmei served the meals to the guests very quickly.

It was also the first time for Mrs. Luo to taste these foods, but her taste was lighter. It was not that she thought they were not delicious, but she was not used to eating heavy flavors.

After dinner, Xiaoman went across to explain everything to Jia Anqing again.

The child held Xiaoman's arm and kept asking how Xu Wenyan was doing, what he was doing in the Gobi Desert, and whether he could be taken there with him.

But if he went there, his father would definitely not be happy about it.

I was pestered with questions like this for a long time, and I stayed in his shop tonight.

Let’s go to Fengxian tomorrow.
