The service in the hotel is pretty good. The driver thought that the Xiao family would return to their hometown, otherwise who would have come to a remote mountain village in the suburbs of Wuhan City and brought so many gifts. So although the road in Shanpo Village is not good, the driver still sent everyone to the door.

The Mercedes-Benz car slowly drove into the hillside village, raising a burst of dust, and the weather was jealous. Even the sister-in-law under the big tree at the entrance of the village were gone. The cicadas were screaming desperately on the tree, as if this could vent the weather's jealousy.

July and August are the process of rice from shrivel to fullness. Even if the weather is jealous, the villagers in Shanpo Village work in their own fields, sweating all over in the scorching sun. Only their feet in the rice fields bring a hint of coolness, supporting everyone's hard work.

An Jiaye was guarding the door early. Yesterday, Cheng family told himself that An Xia came back today. After watering the water early in the morning, he came back early. The house was cleaned up. Watermelon Bing was in the well water that was drilled at the entrance of the village, and mung bean soup was also boiled in the house.

An Jiaye was anxious and simply stood at the door and looked at the village entrance. An Dingqiang sneered, thinking that it was only An Xia who came back and was not a big shot. However, he didn't dare to say it, just expressing his dissatisfaction through sneering, but he also stood at the door and looked at the village entrance. He didn't know that after this period of exercise and weight loss, his heart was also changing little by little.

At first, the villagers and relatives looked down on him. At that time, he entered a vicious cycle. The more others looked down on him, he couldn't be more excited. He just gave up. But now he found that when he started running and lost weight, everyone's attitude towards him gradually changed. When he helped his father do some work and went down to the field to pull weeds, the family and the villagers praised him.

That feeling made him happy. He suddenly felt that this was good and he didn't want to be looked down upon.

"Here, boss, come out soon, your sister is here."

"Tsk, it's not a big shot, and the whole family has to go out to greet her in person." Although he said this, Andingqiang stood at the door, looking anxiously and expectantly at the black car in the distance.

The car was getting closer and closer, and the speed was getting slower and slower. Finally, it stopped steadily in front of Anjiaye House. Many people saw a car coming from the village. Children who were playing crazy outside during holidays saw the car and ran over from all directions.

An Jiaye rubbed his hands, with a big smile on his face, and watched An Xia get out of the car.

"Fourth uncle!"

As soon as she got off the car, she saw the familiar face and smile of my fourth uncle, An Xia's nose pounced on her, "Uncle, I'm back."

"Oh, I'll be back. I've grown up and become a big girl. It's so beautiful."

When An Jiaye saw An Xia, his eyes became hot and his nose felt sore. Since An Xia went to the imperial capital, he would think of his children every day and think about whether she was doing well.

Xiao Jingsheng and Huo Jingshu got out of the car. An Jiaye hurriedly came forward to reach out, but looking at Xiao Jingsheng's clean and straight shirt and trousers with leather shoes, he was a little afraid to reach out.

However, Xiao Jingsheng grabbed An Jiaye's hand that was about to retreat, "Fourth uncle of An Jia, we are meeting again. We are in good health. How are the crops growing well this year?"

Xiao Jingsheng was so down-to-earth that he immediately brought the relationship closer, making An Jiaye feel about Xiao Jingsheng back, "I have always been in good health, and the harvest this year is also good. Come in and it's hot outside."

As he was talking, a young man got out of the car and just took a look, An Jiaye was suddenly stunned. The boy in front of him looked like his younger sister An Zhu, with round eyes, small nose and angular mouth.

"this……"

"Xiao Ran, my son is also...An Zhu's son."

boom!

An Jiaye looked at the tall and thin boy in front of him, and tears fell unknowingly, "Like! Like Zhuzhu."

Xiao Ran looked at the middle-aged man with dark skin and kind appearance in front of him, and felt indescribable emotions, and his heart was so sour and wet.

"Call, come in quickly and don't stand outside."

An Jiaye reacted first. He knew that his sister's child had a serious heart disease. Today, he could tell that the child was in poor health, with a sick face, pale skin and purple lips. He felt very uncomfortable.

"Fourth...uncle."

Xiao Ran had a little difficulty, but finally called out to Uncle Fourth.

With this call of fourth uncle, An Jiaye could no longer hold it back, and had to lower his head, wipe his tears with his big hands, lower his head and choked, "Hey! Good boy, come into the house quickly."

An Dingkai looked at the person in front of him. He was the child of his sister-in-law and the real An family member.

"Boss, go and kill the watermelon and bring it up. The second one will bring it up."

The group came to the main hall, and the room became much cooler at this time. An Jiaye gave the palm-leaf fan at home to everyone, "It was hot at this time, fanning."

An Jiaye sat aside, looking at Xiao Ran constantly.

Xiao Jingsheng smiled and said, "Ranran has never left the house, so he took his whole family around this year."

Xiao Ran looked at the house. The house was a pointed roof, very high, with a large beam on it, and the furnishings and furniture in the house. He had only watched it on TV. The only valuable thing in the whole house was a TV.

"Eat watermelon."

The group was eating watermelon and holding family affairs. Xiao Jingsheng talked about his work, and An Jiaye told him about the matter in the fields. "We will go to Cheng's house for dinner in a while and go to three houses to have dinner in the evening. Mr. Xiao, you come this time, but you must stay in Wuhan for a few more days."

"This is so polite."

"It's all home-cooked and there's nothing good to eat. You're so polite to the family. Every time you come, you bring so many things. Next time you come, don't take anything. Now your life is much better than before. You can eat a full meal and afford meat."

Listening to such simple words, Xiao Ran was stunned, "Fourth uncle, did you not have enough food before?"

An Jiaye smiled, "In the past, all the food had to be handed over, so he could only leave food rations in a fixed amount. Those who work could eat dry food. Others at home only eat porridge, and they could not eat rice every meal. They were all mixed with corn, wild vegetables, sweet potatoes.

As for eating meat, it is only during the Chinese New Year. If you buy some, or if you hold a banquet and kill pigs, you can rush over and buy some water. This is a good dish."

Xiao Ran looked at An Xia. His sister's life was so hard before, and he should have eaten all these hardships. He had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child in the Huo family. Such a life should have belonged to her.

Xiao Ran felt a little sad. An Xia saw that Xiao Ran’s face was dark and smiled and said, “I think it’s good. In summer, I pick lotus seeds, go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, and eat wild fruits. In winter, I pick wild chestnuts and put them in the stove and roast them, and explode the chestnut fragrance all over the room.”

After An Xia said this, Xiao Ran's attention was indeed attracted and asked how to pick An Xia's lotus seeds.
