Seeing Dan Sui’s excitement, and her adorable twirling, Zhong Minfen and Zhen Zhen both laughed.

Dan Sui twisted a few times and sat down to continue to eat, eat a couple of mouthfuls, pinching the small spoon and flashing big eyes asked: “When godmother and godfather move here, then I will be able to see them every day?”

Zhen Zhen put a little bit of food in her little bowl, “Yes.”

Happy, Danho spooned up the small bowl of rice and stuffed it down with a big mouthful.

***

He Shuo and Li Shuang’s family didn’t know exactly what day they would move in, but the day that Servant Danling would come over was agreed upon.

After breakfast that morning, Zhen Zhen went next door and asked Wen to go shopping with her.

The two of them carried baskets of groceries side by side to the food store.

In the two years since she gave birth to Xiaomai, Ah Wen has lived a fairly comfortable life. She and Mrs. Feng never saw each other again, and no one mentioned the birth of her son to her, so she was always in a good mood and looked energetic.

Xiao Mai is now two weeks old, and the social environment is constantly changing.

Wen said to Zhen Zhen: “I decided to let Jiang go at the end of this month, recently more and more use of the heart is not solid, now wheat is also over two years old, can run and talk, I bring my own is not hard.”

Zhen Zhen responded, “Well, give her some additional things to let her go, earn a heart solid.”

These two years down, in some things feel is more and more strict, the social environment more and more less relaxed than before, but where there is a possibility of being taken out to make an article of things and words, it is best not to do and say again.

Although their kind of family is more dependent, but also be careful.

The two of them walked slowly with their baskets of vegetables.

Wen turned to Zhen Zhen and asked, “Are you planning to send Xingyu and Dantong to daycare?”

The compound is equipped with a nursery class, specializing in children from the compound, and if the children can run and talk, they can be sent there for the teacher to take them.

Now that Xingyu and Dantong are two and a half weeks old, they have the basic ability to express themselves, so it’s safe to send them to the nursery class.

Zhen Zhen responded, “Yes, I’ll send them there as soon as school starts, I’ll be busy with my own things when I’m not busy.”

Finally being able to take her hands off a little, it was time to get busy with her own things.

Ah Wen thought for a moment, “Our Xiao Mai usually doesn’t cry or make a fuss when she’s with Xing Yu Dantong, and she knows how to say when she’s hungry or thirsty or when she’s peeing, so it shouldn’t be a problem to send her to a daycare class, so why don’t I send her there as well?”

Zhen Zhen looked at her, “If you’re willing to do that, then send her, the child will have someone to watch her, so we’ll have time to do other things.”

Thinking about the children going to school and being able to have a period of time completely to herself was quite nice.

Because of giving birth and staying at home to bring up the child, it’s been how many years since she’s had any private time of her own, Shizuku thought about it for a little while longer, and then decided decisively, “Okay, then I’ll send Mai there as well, and let the daycare teacher bring her, and we’ll live a little happily ever after.”

Zhen Zhen smiled, “When sister-in-law Li Shuang comes over, we’ll live happily together.”

As for how exactly to live happily, that hadn’t been thought of yet.

But right now, just talking about it, she already felt very happy.

When the three of them were together, they didn’t do anything, they just sat together and talked, and they were happy.

Speaking of their plans, the two of them went to the food store with smiles on their faces.

Zhen Zhen had bought a lot of snacks in addition to meat, fish and vegetables.

After buying things and coming out from the store, the food basket in her hand was already filled to the brim.

Zhen Zhen smiled and said, “My niece is arriving at noon today, I’m going to make her some more delicious food, she loves my cooking.”

Mentioning Servant Danling, Wen then said, “This niece of yours is really outstanding, going to school in a countryside school and being able to go to university is not usually easy, right?”

Zhen Zhen sighed slightly and said, “Yes, it’s very hard to come out on your own from a small place like that.”

Shizuku: “It’s still the case that Shihua Ming has set a good example for her, and the power of example is endless.”

Zhen Zhen smiled, “It’s also because she’s smart and willing to work hard.”

As they talked, they entered the alley, and when they reached the front door of the house, Ah Wen went into the yard first.

Zhen Zhen carried a basket of vegetables and continued to walk forward, into the yard to see a bunch of children playing in the house, making a lot of noise. Dan Sui and Dou Dou Mi Mi were playing together, Xiao Mai and Dan Tong Xing Yu were playing together. Xiao Jiang was chatting with Zhong Minfen and doing needlework.

Big White lay on the ground to one side, resting his head on his front paws, quietly watching the children play.

When she saw Zhen Zhen come back, Dabai got up and greeted her, wagging his tail in front of Zhen Zhen.

Zhen Zhen reached out and touched it, carried the basket of vegetables into the kitchen, put down the basket of vegetables and went out to the main house.

It’s still early, so I sat down and didn’t have a chance to talk to Zhong Minfen and Xiao Jiang before Ah Wen came over.

Usually, several people get together like this to pass the time with their children.

Today, Xiao Jiang was suddenly a bit depressed, looking down and doing needlework, said: “In a few days, I’ll be leaving, and I won’t be able to work with you guys to bring up the kids anymore, so I really can’t bear to part with ……”.

Especially sad about wheat, this child she usually bring more, from birth to now.

Hearing her say this, A Wen Zhen Zhen and Zhong Min Fen naturally also feel reluctant to let go, after all, together for two years.

But they didn’t follow the melancholy, Ah Wen relaxed her tone and said, “Ahem, if you miss us, just come over, I will definitely treat you well.”

Chiang smiled a little, “Don’t get tired of me coming over more often.”

Ah Wen also smiled, “If you’re happy, I wouldn’t mind if you stayed here for ten days and half a month.”

A few people talked together, looking at the children from time to time.

When it was about time, Zhen Zhen got up and went to the kitchen, put on her apron and started cooking.

Shizuku and Chiang also stopped sitting around and took DouDouMiMi and XiaoMei home with them.

Dan Sui wasn’t too old to watch her younger siblings, but she was only five weeks old, and Dantong and Xingyu were just the right amount of curious and mischievous, so Zhong Minfen didn’t go to the kitchen to help Zhen Zhen cook with her, but stayed in the main house to watch the children.

Zhen Zhen in the kitchen steam cooking, forehead beads of sweat.

Although she was only serving Danling one more person for lunch, she still made a table full of dishes.

When she had finished cooking and brought all the food to the table, Shi Huai Ming happened to come back with Shi Danling.

Zhong Minfen was the first to see them in the house, and turned around to welcome them, saying with a smile on her face, “Here we are, just in time. Quickly, quickly, put down your luggage and wash up for dinner.”

Serving Danling and two years ago compared to the appearance of some changes, out of the more beautiful and more generous.

She smiled and called Grandma and Third Auntie, not forgetting to greet Dan Sui Dantong Xingyu.

Dan Sui did not remember her and looked up at her and asked, “Are you a cousin?”

Servant Dan Ling bent her legs and squatted in front of her, smilingly told her, “Yes, when I last came back, you kept sticking to me and sitting in my arms, have you forgotten?”

Dan Sui was a little embarrassed and laughed awkwardly, “Hey, it seems like I’ve somewhat forgotten.”

Servant Dan Ling was amused by her and laughed even more, raising her hand to stroke her little head.

After the pleasantries ended, Zhen Zhen took Servant Danling to the bedroom.

She took the luggage in Shi Dan Ling’s hand, took Shi Dan Ling upstairs, opened the bedroom door and said to her, “Ling Ling you will live in this room from now on, everything that can be prepared has been prepared for you, what else do you need to directly talk to Auntie San.”

Servant Danling saw the things in the room and said with some embarrassment, “Third Auntie, this room is also too well tidied up.”

Zhen Zhen didn’t say much, helped her put down her luggage, smiled, patted her and said, “Wash up and come down to eat.”

As she was in a hurry to eat, she simply washed up.

After washing up and tying her hair, she went downstairs and sat down at the table with Zhen Zhen and the others.

Zhong Minfen said to her, “Because you came over, your third aunt made such a big table.”

Servant Danling then looked at Zhen Zhen again, “Thank you Third Aunt, I love eating your cooking.”

Zhen Zhen smiled and said, “Then eat more.”

As the third uncle, Servant Huai Ming was a lot more restrained.

Zhong Minfen and Zhen Zhen were very enthusiastic, and gave Shi Danling a lot of food in her bowl during dinner.

Shi Danling’s bowl was piled high, and her mouth was stuffed full.

Seeing Zhong Minfen and Zhen Zhen like this, Shi Huai Ming suddenly cleared his throat and said, “The meat and potatoes of our family is now Ling Ling.”

Zhong Minfen and Zhen Zhen turned their heads to look at Shui Huaiming, and Zhong Minfen said nonchalantly, “You’re right, you don’t have the same reputation as Lingling, who was the first university student in the old Shui family.”

Serving Huai Ming nodded and reached out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of braised pork and put it into Serving Danling’s bowl.

The smile on Serving Danling’s face grew even wider, “Thank you Third Uncle.”

Dan Sui was beside her pounding the rice with a small spoon.

She looked at Zhen Zhen, Shui Huai Ming and Zhong Min Fen with big flashing eyes and asked seriously, “Don’t I smell good?”

Zhen Zhen, Shui Huai Ming and Zhong Min Fen were stunned by her question.

Then the three of them tacitly gave her dishes as well and synchronized their voices in unison, “Fragrant!”

Dan Sui was happy and scooped up a large spoonful of rice and stuffed it directly into her mouth, stuffing her mouth to the point of bulging.

After the food-pinching part passed, Zhong Minfen and Zhen Zhen asked some more about what happened after Serving Danling got into college.

Although the letters had expressed their joy, words were never as direct as expressions and sounds.

Zhong Minfen asked her, “When you found out you got into college, were your parents overjoyed?”

Servant Danling smiled and nodded, “So excited that they almost fainted.”

Zhen Zhen followed, “We were also thrilled when we received the letter.”

Over dinner, Servant Danling told them a lot.

She was also famous in Red Flag Commune because she had gotten into college.

Before she packed her bags and came to the city, the village had organized a banquet for her, and the brigade headquarters had even put up a banner.

After dinner, the conversation is almost over.

Serving Danling rushed over to be more tired, after eating and taking a bath, then went back to her room to sleep.

Wen and Jiang brought their children over and said with a smile, “We came over to see the college students.”

Zhen Zhen smiled and replied to them, “Our college student has gone to bed.”

Then we’ll wait until the college student wakes up from his nap.

Shizuku and Jiang sat down and passed the time as usual here watching the children and talking.

Shizuku asked Zhen Zhen again, “Is Shuang sure when he’s moving in yet?”

It was unknown at the moment, but Zhen Zhen said, “It should be soon, the kids will definitely be able to move over before school starts.”

There weren’t many days left until school started.

The next morning, after getting up and eating breakfast, Zhen Zhen took Servant Danling out to buy things.

All that was bought was what was needed for school, food and clothing, all of which were good.

On the way back, Zhen Zhen said to Shidan Ling, “Ling Ling, you’ll start school in a few days, I’ll send you there?”

Serving Danling did not know where her school was, so she naturally agreed, “Yes, thank you, Auntie.”

Zhen Zhen smiled and said, “What are you thanking me for, I also want to go and see what college is like.”

Shi Danling knew that Zhen Zhen had never been to school.

She herself later learned culture, but the piece of campus life belongs to the blank.

After speculating a little on this, Servant Danling said to Zhen Zhen, “Auntie San, after I report to the school and familiarize myself with the school’s environment for a while, I’ll take you to have some fun in our school.”

Zhen Zhen’s eyes brightened slightly, “Good.”

Saying that, she joked again, “I’ll pretend I’m a college student too.”

Servant Danling smiles and puts her arm around her, “Third Auntie, with your face and temperament, you’re a college student when you dress up.”

Zhen Zhen turned her head to look at her, “You’re making me happy again.”

Servant Danling, “I’m serious.”

The two talked happily and turned into the hutong.

After entering the hutong and looking ahead, they suddenly saw a green pickup truck pulling luggage parked in the hutong.

The location of the green pickup truck, is Zhen Zhen’s home next to the courtyard outside the door.

Zhen Zhen looked for a moment and asked, “Is it big brother He and sister-in-law Li Shuang?”

Servant Danling wasn’t familiar with He Shuo and Li Shuang, and had only seen them a total of so many times, so of course she had no way to answer her.

She said, “We’ll know when we get to the front and take a look.”

However, before the two of them could reach the front, they saw Shizuku coming out of that courtyard.

Ah Wen also saw Zhen Zhen and Servant Dan Ling, and immediately waved at Zhen Zhen, “Sister, Ah Shuang moved in!”

It’s true!

Surprise spread in Zhen Zhen’s eyes, and she hurried forward with quickened steps.

Servant Danling followed beside her, naturally speeding up her steps as well.

Walking to the side of the green pickup truck, they happened to see He Shuo and Li Shuang come out again.

When they met and greeted each other cheerfully, Li Shuang looked at Zhen Zhen and said, “We’re neighbors again.”

Zhen Zhen smiled happily, “Yes, we can see each other every day again.”

Seeing Li Shuang, Zhen Zhen didn’t go home.

She gave all the things she bought to Servant Danling to take home, and stayed behind with Wen to help He Shuo and Li Shuang move their luggage to the house, and helped them clean the house a little.

At noon, Servant Huai Ming and Liu Zhi came back from work and naturally went to this side of the courtyard.

There was nothing to be polite about between Shi Huaoming and He Shuo, and Liu Zhi and He Shuo politely exchanged a few more pleasantries.

Of course, they are not strangers to each other, so a few pleasantries would be considered getting acquainted again.

In the house, the luggage had just been moved in, and it was too messy to stand in.

Serving Huai Ming directly told He Shuo and Li Shuang, “Let’s go, don’t get busy first, go to my house for dinner.”

He Shuo and Li Shuang naturally didn’t follow him politely, bringing He Ziran and He Ziyan over.

Liu Zhi and Ah Wen also then didn’t go home, bringing Xiao Jiang and the three children, and stayed together at Squire Huai Ming’s house for dinner.

After lunch, they stayed at Shui Huaiming’s house to eat together, and now that they had gotten along, there was no need for them to get along.

After lunch, the service Huaiming and Liu Zhi to the point to go to work, He Shuo followed together to report to the post, the children remain in this side to play together, the service Danling lead with, Zhong Minfen and Xiao Jiang in the side to watch.

Zhen Zhen and Ah Wen went next door to help Li Shuang pack.

In the afternoon, the cicadas chirped.

It is rare for the three of them to be together like this again.

Before packing, Li Shuang turned out the record player and put on the record to play music.

Listening to the soothing and melodious music, the three of them chatted and drank a cup of coffee first.

After taking a sip of coffee and savoring the flavor, Zhen Zhen put down the cup and said, “Suddenly I remember when I first came to the city.”

Hearing this, Li Shuang and Wen looked at her and voiced, “It’s like two people from now.”

Because they said it in unison, both of them laughed when they finished.

Zhen Zhen looked at the two of them, “Was I naive and silly then, and you all looked down on me?”

“Of course not.” Shizuku was the first to answer, “You were clearly innocent plus cute, you couldn’t help but like it.”

Li Shuang laughed, sipping her coffee without tearing Shizuku apart.

If she remembered correctly, when Jen first came to town, Shizuku had been a real pain in the ass.

Looking at Wen and Zhen Zhen in front of her now, she suddenly couldn’t help but feel a little emotional – it’s amazing that so much time has passed.

When I think of the time when Zhen Zhen first came to the city, she really didn’t know anything, like a white and pure child.

Like a small cotton flower with its bud propped open, white and soft.

***

After drinking coffee, Li Shuang and Zhen Zhen Arwen then packed up their luggage together.

Because of the three people together, packing up faster, also used the afternoon half a day, will be Li Shuang moved over those bags all packed up, inside and outside the house also cleaned up a bit.

There is also a tree in the yard of Li Shuang’s house, which is a lilac.

Li Shuang, Zhen Zhen and Ah Wen stood in front of the lilac tree.

Shizuku suddenly said, “Eh, why don’t we worship each other?”

Li Shuang laughed out loud, “I didn’t realize you’re so ritualistic.”

Wen added, “Sometimes I feel that meeting you guys is the biggest luck in my life.”

Li Shuang looked at her and for a moment cupped her hand and shook it, then cupped Jen’s hand and shook it to a handful.

The three people’s hands clasped together, Li Shuang cleared her throat and said, “Then I’ll be childish here, from today onwards, I, Li Shuang, and Lin Zhen Zhen, and pro Ah Wen, become sisters of different surnames, and from now on, we’ll enjoy the same blessings and suffer the same hardships!”

When Li Shuang finished saying this, a smile unfolded on Zhen Zhen’s face.

And as Wen laughed and laughed, suddenly her eyes got wet and she cried again.

Li Shuang and Zhen Zhen laughed out loud and wiped her tears, saying to her, “You’re a pure crybaby now!”

Shizuku sniffs heavily twice, “What the hell are you guys laughing at such a touching moment!”

***

He Shuo and Li Shuang’s family came over, and it was time for Xiao Jiang to leave.

Gathering and scattering are the most common things in life, but they are also the things that can make people’s hearts flutter and emotions surge.

Jiang packed his bags and said goodbye to Wen and Mai.

Mai watched Chiang’s red eyes as he left with the packages on his back, crying in Shizuku’s arms and reaching out to catch Chiang as he left. Of course she didn’t catch it, so she sent Chiang away with her own cries.

And little children are very forgetful, and after crying this bout passed.

She went to daycare with Dantong and Xingyu, where she met new friends and had a new life.

On the day that the university opened, Zhen Zhen sent Shui Danling to the school as she had promised.

She helped Shui Danling take part of her luggage and took Shui Danling to Xicheng Normal University.

Standing outside the tall gates of the university, looking at the golden letters on the gates, Zhen Zhen and Shi Danling felt the first day of being a university student together. Carrying luggage into the school gates, everywhere is the youthful atmosphere.

The first day of the new students to report, the boulevard is full of people coming and going.

Zhen Zhen looked at these energetic young faces, only to feel that his heart is also full of infinite vitality.

There are so many beautiful and fresh aspects of life, full of enthusiasm and hope, it’s really enjoyable.

She went with Servant Danling to report to the check-in center, went together to receive the things issued by the school, and then went together to the assigned dormitory.

When they arrived at the dormitory and unpacked their bags, Squire Danling met a few other girls in the same dormitory.

After all, it’s not Zhen Zhen who came to school.

After helping Danling pack her bags, Zhen Zhen instructed her to say a few words and then left.

Not long after Zhen Zhen left, a girl in the dormitory asked Shi Danling, “Is that your sister? She’s so pretty.”

Shi Danling smiled and said, “Not my sister, that’s my third aunt.”

Girl: “Then your third aunt is really young.”

Servant Danling: “It is.”

***

Zhen Zhen left the school, but her mood was still immersed in the atmosphere of the campus.

Obviously it was a place that had nothing to do with her, and it wasn’t a place she should stay, but she just couldn’t help but like it.

When she was lost in thought, she couldn’t help but think how wonderful it would be if she could go to school in a place like that in her life.

Unfortunately, it was impossible. It was a place for young people, a place where young people created their future.

Because of this impossible yearning in her heart, before she went to bed at night, Zhen Zhen read a little more.

When Shui Huaiming came over to bed after freshening up, she was still leaning on the bedside, carefully turning over the book in her hand.

Mr. Huai Ming looked at her for a while, and suddenly asked her, “Do you want to go to college like Dan Ling?”

Zhen Zhen was surprised and turned her head to look at him, “How do you know?”

Shi Huai Ming laughed a little and said, “I am now the roundworm in your stomach, I know what you are thinking.”

Zhen Zhen didn’t believe it and retracted her gaze to continue reading her book.

Servant Huai Ming leaned over next to her and added, “If you want to go, I’ll say hello to the school, so if the kids go to school, you can go too.”

Hearing this, Zhen Zhen brushed her head and turned to look at him, “Is that okay?”

Serving Huai Ming looked at her and said, “Of course it’s okay, universities and middle schools are different, the management in this regard are more relaxed, say hello, you can rest assured that you can go to dabble in classes, dabble in the cafeteria, dabble in lectures, dabble in clubs …… as long as there are any in the university, you can dabble in everything.”

Zhen Zhen’s eyes lit up as she listened, and her voice also brightened, “Really?”

Servant Huai Ming nodded at her, “One hundred percent true.”

Zhen Zhen looked at him and blinked once, thinking of something, her tone dropped again, “But I’m a bit too old, those students are all in their eighteen or nineteen twenties, I’m thirty-two, and I’m also the mother of three children.”

Servant Huai Ming: “You can’t study because you’re older? You can’t go to school because you have kids? Live to learn, as long as you want to learn and experience it, you don’t have to care too much about other people’s eyes.”

Zhen Zhen looked at Shui Huai Ming for a moment in silence, the small flame in her heart flared up a little more.

Her heart unconsciously beat a little faster, yearning and expecting, and at the same time feeling really out of place.

Looking at it with worldly eyes, it was indeed too strange and would be looked at differently.

After thinking for a while, Zhen Zhen looked into Servant Huai Ming’s eyes and asked in an expectant whisper again, “Do you support me?”

Servant Huai Ming nodded at her without hesitation, “Unconditionally support you, no matter what you want to do, I will support you.”

A thick smile pursed open between Zhen Zhen’s lips.

She looked at Servant Huai Ming and said, “If you support me, I don’t care what others think of me.”

Servant Huai Ming’s heart was suddenly sweet.

He looked at Zhen Zhen and smiled.

His daughter-in-law at thirty-two was just like eighteen.
