There is a mountain in her arms

Chapter 51 Returning to Hometown for the New Year

Gu Yanbang and his friends left after just one night as he had to go back to work. Jiang Fengying wanted to take Gu Yuxuan to Beijing first.

Perhaps the relationship has become closer, and An An is a little reluctant.

"It's okay, An An, godmother and her family will be here after the New Year. I'll take you to her house to stay for a few days then."

"it is good!"

Jiang Yicheng tried to comfort An An, and seeing that he was still unhappy, he took him for a walk around the neighborhood.

The eldest family closed the shop early and returned to their hometown on the day of their exam. Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang were also packing their things today and they are also preparing to return to their hometown tomorrow.

As soon as they walked out of the station, Jiang Weiguo kept waving to them.

"Second uncle, second uncle, here."

"Grandpa, look, it's uncle!"

Jiang Yichen was sharp-eyed and touched his grandfather's arm.

"Weiguo, why are you here?"

"Uncle, my father said you would be back today, so he asked me to pick you up at the station early. Alas! Uncle, why do you have so little luggage?"

Jiang Weiguo took their luggage and led the way for them.

Jiang Yichen and An An smiled because they had placed most of their luggage in the space!

"Hey! We'll just stay at home for a few days. We have everything at home. We can just come back and prepare some New Year's goods. It will save us from having to carry a lot of bags when we leave. It's troublesome!"

Grandpa Jiang cleared his throat and spoke calmly.

"Yes, when my parents came back, they had so many bags and so many things in the cart that they got into trouble. My mother said they wouldn't dare to do that again next time. Come, the cart is over there. I've laid a straw mat on it."

Jiang Weiguo guided them to the ox cart, watched them sit properly, sat in the front with Grandpa Jiang, and told him about the changes in the village.

Grandma Jiang put hats on Jiang Yichen and Anan, and listened attentively to the changes in the village.

"It seems like the village chief has come to pick up Uncle Jiang!"

"Uncle Jiang, you're back!"

"Uncle, you look more and more like city people."

"Hey, look at the two kids from my second uncle's house. They are so fair-skinned and look like they are from the city."

"Aunt Yu, my mother is waiting for you to come back and chat!"

"Yes! Aunt Yu, my mother is the same!"

A long section of road had been built at the entrance of the village. When Jiang Weiguo's ox cart came from a distance, it was seen by the people who were building the road, and they all greeted him warmly.

"Hey! Hey! You guys have worked hard! You guys go ahead and do your work first. We still have to go back and clean up the house. When the road is repaired, I'll treat everyone to a drink!"

"Okay! Uncle, it's settled!"

"Second Uncle Jiang is kind and righteous!"

"Yes, benevolence!"

……

Grandpa Jiang jumped off the ox cart and greeted the villagers one by one. Because this section of the road was difficult to walk, Jiang Yicheng and his friends also got off the ox cart.

They only walked through the village entrance after receiving the villagers' stares along the way.

"Oh! Jiang Erjia is back!"

"Sister Yu, you're back!"

"Hey! I'm back!"

"Aunt Yu, my mother-in-law was still talking about you a few days ago!"

"Really? When I have time, I'll chat with her!"

……

When they finally got home, they were all relieved.

"Uncle, I'm going home first. I also need to go back to repair the road."

"Hey! Okay."

Jiang Weiguo sent them to the door and drove away in the ox cart.

When they opened the door, the yard was full of dust. Grandma Jiang quickly opened every room, and after Grandpa Jiang swept the yard, he also helped Grandma Jiang take out the quilts in the house to dry.

Jiang Yicheng and An An rolled up their sleeves and each took a rag to wipe the table and furniture.

We had fruit and pastries for lunch because the kitchen hadn't been cleaned yet.

It took me a whole afternoon to clean the house.

Grandpa Jiang specially converted the unused room on the right into An An's room, but there was no bed or furniture in it.

But it was not a big problem, and none of these could faze Grandpa Jiang. The next day, Grandpa Jiang took Jiang Yicheng and An'an up the mountain. Grandpa Jiang cut down a tree to make a bed for An'an. The two siblings were just idle.

An An had never been to the mountains before because her grandparents didn't allow her to go. This time she came with great difficulty and begged her sister to go to the mountains for a walk.

In order to reassure Grandpa Jiang, Jiang Yichen released Achu.

Achu has now grown tall and strong, and has no rivals in the space, so it often chases prey in the woods for fun.

"Achu, you follow An'an and protect it at all times. Got it?"

Jiang Yicheng stroked its fur and gave it some instructions. Ah Chu nodded in a humane way, raised his head and rubbed An An's little face.

"Okay, let's go!"

Jiang Yichen did not take An An deeper into the area, but just took a walk around the periphery and taught An An how to use a slingshot to hunt.

An An was very excited at first, but he always missed the target and was eventually caught up and bitten to death by A Chu.

Jiang Yichen corrected him patiently, and gradually he found the feel for it and actually hit one.

"Sister, look, I hit it, I hit it!"

An An grabbed her arm excitedly, and Jiang Yicheng nodded and praised him.

"I saw it, good job."

After finding his feeling, An An continued to look for prey. Jiang Yicheng and A Chu followed him on the left and right, always paying attention to the environment around them.

"Huh? What is that? A weasel? Why is it red?"

Suddenly a red figure flashed past them as fast as lightning.

An An chased after it without thinking. Just as Jiang Yichen was wondering what kind of animal it was, it had already run away.

Fortunately, Ah Chu followed, and Jiang Yicheng quickly chased after him. When she found An An by following the trail, he and Ah Chu were standing in front of a towering tree.

"Sister, that looks like a fox. I saw it running up this tree."

"An An, do you know that we are deep in the mountains here? It is very dangerous for you to run around blindly in the woods like this. Let's go back!"

Jiang Yichen ignored what he said and explained the seriousness of the matter to him seriously.

"I'm not afraid. I know Ah Chu has been following me. And it was Ah Chu who brought me here. I actually lost him before."

When An An said this, Jiang Yichen was shocked.

"Achu, did you find anything?"

An An doesn't know A Chu's background, but she does.

"Master, I sense a special power here, which seems to be similar to the power absorbed by the Heart of Origin."

Achu transmitted his thoughts to Jiang Yichen, and it was sensing everywhere around this place.

"what?"

Jiang Yichen forced himself to calm down and carefully examined every blade of grass and every tree.

There is nothing special around here, except this towering tree.

Jiang Yichen estimated that it would take at least five people to surround it.

"Sister, look, it's that fox."

An An suddenly looked up and pointed upwards. A red fox was poking its head out from the fork of a branch.

"Did you bring us here on purpose?"

Jiang Yichen raised her head and talked to it, while An An looked at her sister in disbelief.

"Sister, it's just an animal, how can it understand you?"

"Everything has a soul! How can you be so sure that it can't understand us? Ah Chu can understand it."

Jiang Yicheng defended herself without blushing or beating her heart. Of course, she also knew that Ah Chu was indeed special, and she was just trying any possible means to cure her illness.

The little fox retracted its head instantly. Jiang Yichen didn't dare to stay in this deep mountain forever and planned to go back.

"Forget it if you don't understand. An An, this is deep in the mountains, let's get out quickly, otherwise we will run into a big guy and get into trouble."

"it is good!"

The two people and the wolf had just taken a few steps when the fox came down from the tree and grabbed her trouser leg.

"Achu, why does this scene feel so familiar?"

Jiang Yicheng lifted his foot and glanced at Ah Chu. Ah Chu had thick fur, so it was hard to tell what his expression was at the moment. But he turned his head away and didn't look at her.

"Little guy, what do you mean? We don't dare to play hide-and-seek with you here."

Jiang Yichen kicked his legs, trying to shake it off.

The little fox pointed upwards with his paw, then pointed at her.

"Sister, it seems to be telling you to climb a tree."

"Is there something on the tree?"

The little fox nodded frantically and pointed upwards, waving its two paws in the air.

Jiang Yichen didn't understand the meaning behind it and frowned.

"Little guy, this tree is too high. I can't climb up."

The little fox wilted instantly and scratched his head in frustration.

"But I can go back and think of a solution. I'll come back when I have one."

The little fox was a little anxious and didn't want to let them go. There was struggle, doubt and uncertainty in his eyes.

"I will come when I find a way. You see, I don't have your ability to climb trees, and I can't do anything if I stay here. I promise. Ah Chu, can you communicate with it?"

Jiang Yichen thought of Achu's specialness and had a sudden idea.

"It and I are not of the same species."

"Have you been a wolf for so long that you've forgotten your origins?"

Ah Chu's face instantly turned red due to what Jiang Yichen said, he actually forgot about it.

Ah Chu growled at the fox, which was stunned at first, and then squeaked in ecstasy.

An An was completely stunned by the fantastic scene before her.

"Sister, how can they communicate? Are they all spirits? Didn't they say that after the founding of New China, spirits are not allowed?"

"Huh? It's possible that they became spirits some time ago."

Jiang Yicheng's words completely misled An An, and his eyes lit up instantly.

"really?"

"Fake!"

"elder sister!"

"They are not monsters, but they may be slightly more spiritual than other animals. Just like us humans, some people can understand things at once, while others need to be repeatedly taught."

"So that's how it is! I thought I had encountered a miracle!"

Only then did An An accept it, but she felt a little unhappy.

The little fox returned to the tree and watched Jiang Yichen and the others leave step by step.

On the way back, An An was very happy because he shot two pheasants with his own skills.

Grandpa Jiang had already gone down the mountain. Jiang Yichen took Ah Chu into the space and only left two pheasants and a hare outside, which happened to be caught by An'an. Then they went down the mountain together.

As soon as An An entered the yard, he showed off his game and pestered his grandmother to cook it in the evening.

Jiang Yichen returned to the room and entered the space.

"Achu, do you know what's going on?"

"I think this back mountain is a little peculiar. The Heart of Origin chose this place on purpose. Is there something special here? Or is there something unusual here?"

"What exactly do you want to express?"

Jiang Yichen was confused by Ah Chu's incoherent words.

"You know what? The fox told me that it was guided there by someone. And it hasn't been awake for long, longer than I was asleep."

"So is it guarding something?"

"Yes! It says that a powerful person sealed it there along with something else."

"Seal? Another seal. Could it be that there are still immortal cultivators in this world?"

"Impossible. The Origin Heart is almost dissipated, how can there be any immortal cultivators?"

"Could it be that it doesn't know what it's guarding? Then why did she ask me to get it?"

"It said that it saw a painting before it was sealed. The painting was of you and a silver wolf."

Jiang Yichen already understood what Ah Chu had not finished saying.

"Achu, could it be that I am some reincarnated immortal who has come down to save this world?"

"What are you daydreaming about? There are no gods anymore."

"Then how did I get here? There must be a destiny in the dark. Maybe I was an immortal in the past."

"If you say so, then it is so! Then you are also the most unlucky immortal, coming to a planet that is about to be destroyed."

"Heh! Isn't this saving yourself? Do you still want your original power to recover?"

Jiang Yicheng threatened Achu with a slightly raised eyebrow, as if he was going to quit.

"miss you!"

"Then think of a way quickly. We can't just cut down that tree! Eh? I can climb up with the help of a rope. Yes, I will find two ropes to climb up tomorrow."

The solution was found, Jiang Yicheng left the space. Grandpa Jiang was making a bed frame with wood, and An An was helping.

"Second Grandpa, has Cheng Cheng and An An come back?"

Jiang Ziqing heard the sound before he even entered the door.

"An An, you're back! I wanted to come and play with you yesterday, but my grandma wouldn't let me. Today I came to see you, and Second Grandma said you went up the mountain. You're really brave, daring to go up the mountain at such a young age."

As soon as Jiang Zixiao came in, he started talking nonstop. An An raised her chin proudly.

"What's the big deal? I even shot two pheasants and a hare! Come to my house for dinner later. I'll ask my grandma to make spicy rabbit head and lotus leaf chicken."

"Okay! An An, I haven't eaten meat for a long time. You don't know how miserable my time with my dad was at home!"

Jiang Zixiao pulled An An aside and complained bitterly. Grandpa Jiang looked at him silently and continued with his work.

Jiang Ziqing pouted in disdain and pulled Jiang Yichen into the house.

"Chengcheng, the third year of junior high school is too hard!"

"Cousin, we all went through this, and there's only half a year left! Do your best in the exams, and maybe we can meet in the city next year."

"Chengcheng, please don't make big promises for me. I don't have the confidence to get into No. 1 Middle School."

"Cousin, you can't underestimate yourself! Besides, there is more than just No. 1 High School in the city. There are other high schools! Your family has also rented a house in the city. Even if we are not in the same high school, we can still get together every month during the holidays!"

"Hey! That's true! I haven't been to the city yet! I must pass the exam to go to the city next year."

"come on!"

Jiang Yichen likes Jiang Ziqing's objective and cheerful personality very much, so every time she comes, she will accompany her patiently.

"Sister, cousin, come out for dinner!"

"Coming!"

Jiang Yichen hurried out to help serve the dishes and set the table. Grandpa Jiang washed his hands and sat down, and then the children came up to the table one after another.

"Wow! Spicy rabbit head, lotus leaf chicken, sweet and sour spareribs, all of which are my favorites. An An, you are much happier than me!"

Jiang Zixiao's saliva was almost flowing out. Seeing Grandpa Jiang picking up his chopsticks, he directly grabbed a rabbit head and started to chew it.

"Cousin, I'll give you this chicken leg too. I can eat it whenever I want at home."

An An broke off a chicken leg and put it in his bowl, with sympathy in her eyes.

Jiang Ziqing felt a little embarrassed. She gave the other chicken leg to An An and spoke to him gently.

"An An, don't listen to his nonsense. He's at home with my dad and we often go out to eat."

"Sister, it was just that one time, and you caught me, but you kept nagging me. Didn't you see when you got home? Dad doesn't know how to cook. I only eat pig food."

Jiang Zixiao bit the rabbit's head angrily, feeling very aggrieved.

"Then you are a pig!"

"Ha ha ha ha"
