Chapter 416 Return to Sun Village

Chapter 416 Return to Sun Village

It was not until the evening that Sun Shan returned to Sunjia Village. Looking at the small and simple village archway at the entrance of the village, Sun Shan was extremely excited.

When passing by the big banyan tree, I could vaguely see a few villagers enjoying the cool air.

Sun Shan was in a hurry to go home and didn't even come down to say hello.

When he saw the gate of the Sun family's old house, Sun Shan felt both timid and excited.

The afterglow of the sunset shines on the ordinary courtyard, and everything seems so peaceful.

It was only three years away, but it felt like ten years. Childhood memories kept flooding into his mind, as if he was back to his first day of school. Sun Boming held his hand, carried his school box, and walked carefully towards the road to school.

The door of the Sun family was open. Sun Shan got off the ox cart and led Gui Ge'er and his second brother-in-law Zheng Hongyuan into the home he missed all the time.

I could vaguely see Huang picking beans on the door railing.

Sun Shan's eyes were red, and he called out timidly, "Grandma, Grandma, I'm back."

Huang was concentrating on picking beans, and she hadn't noticed Sun Shan and others coming in yet.

Hearing Sun Shan's call, he slowly raised his head, his eyes a little blurred, looked again and again, and when he was sure it was Sun Shan, he stood up suddenly.

Because of his excitement, he scattered beans all over the floor, and hurried over. After confirming that it was Sun Shan, he excitedly shouted: "Shanzi, Shanzi, is that you? Is that Grandma's Shanzi?"

Sun Shan hurried over, took Huang's rough old hand, nodded and said, "Grandma, it's me, Shanzi is back."

Huang was so excited that she hugged Sun Shan. Her eyes were red and she kept crying. She said in disbelief, "It's really Shanzi. My Shanzi is back. Grandma missed you so much."

Sun Shan took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears from Huang's eyes. He smiled and said, "Grandma, are you okay? Is everything okay at home? Where are my father and mother?"

Huang looked at Sun Shan carefully, without blinking, and said excitedly, "Okay, grandma is fine, everything is fine, you don't have to worry. Your father and mother are still in the orchard and will be back soon."

Huang touched Sun Shan's face and body carefully, and said distressedly, "You have become thinner and darker. Is studying very hard? Is the food in the academy not good?"

Sun Shan helped Huang sit down and explained, "Grandma, studying is not tiring. It's just that the food is really not good. Home-cooked food is better."

Huang held Sun Shan's hands tightly and said hurriedly, "The food outside is nothing compared to the food at home. You have suffered a lot in the past three years, and you must not have eaten well. But now that you are home, you must have a good rest."

Huang's eyes were full of love and she asked Sun Shan about his well-being.

Sun Shan saw that Huang's hair was covered with silver hair. After not seeing her for three years, Huang looked older than before and her hands had many age spots.

Sun Shan said distressedly: "Grandma, I'm back. I missed you so much."

Huang smiled lovingly and said, "You went so far away, I was so worried. Fortunately, you are back. Grandma is so happy."

As Sun Shan and Huang were chatting, Sun Boming and Su walked in from outside.

Sun Bomin asked curiously: "Whose ox cart is this?"

Su also called out, "Mother, is anyone coming to our house?"

When Sun Shan heard the voices of Sun Bomin and Su, he hurried out of the main hall and saw Sun Bomin carrying firewood and Su holding vegetables.

Sun Shan shouted excitedly: "Father, Mother, I'm back, Shanzi is back."

Sun Bomin and Su were stunned by the shout. They turned around and were even more stunned when they saw Sun Shan.

Su was the first to react. She dropped the food and hurried over. She looked at Sun Shan and shouted excitedly, "Shanzi, my Shanzi, is it really you? When did you come back? How come I didn't know?"

Sun Shan held Su's old and rough hand tightly, nodded seriously and said, "Mother, it's me. I'm back."

After Su confirmed that it was her precious son, she hugged Sun Shan tightly and shouted excitedly: "Shanzi, my Shanzi, why are you so thin and dark? Is it because your days of studying were very hard?"

Su touched Sun Shan's face carefully. She couldn't calm down and kept saying, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Sun Shan called out again, "Dad, I'm back."

Sun Bomin hastily put down the firewood and said in a pause, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back."

Su and Sun Boming haven't changed much. They look the same as they did three years ago in my memory, except that they have many more spots on their faces.

This may be the inevitable sign of aging as I get older.

Huang saw that Su always occupied Sun Shan's time, and she felt a little uncomfortable and said, "Shanzi's mother, go and catch a chicken and butcher it. Shanzi said that he couldn't get used to the food in the academy, so he is so thin. You must eat a good diet when you go home."

After saying this, he took Sun Shan into the main room and asked him to sit down and rest.

Before Su had enough time to enjoy her son, she was called by her mother-in-law to butcher a chicken. She was a little unhappy about it.

But seeing how thin Shanzi was, he really needed to eat some more, so he quickly agreed: "Mother, I understand. I'll go catch some chickens."

The sunset glow was almost gone, and it was too late. Sun Shan said hurriedly, "Mother, don't butcher the chicken. It's too late."

Sun Bomin disagreed, "It's not late at all. The chicken will be butchered very quickly. It's not late at all."

Only then did I see my second son-in-law Zheng Hongyuan and Gui Ge'er.

Said to Zheng Hongyuan: "Hongyuan, stay for dinner tonight."

Zheng Hongyuan quickly said: "Father-in-law, no need, I can just go back to Zhengjia Village to eat."

Su also saw Zheng Hongyuan and Gui Ge'er, and hurriedly said, "Hongyuan, don't go back, stay here and eat."

Sun Bomin said again, "Hongyuan, help me go to the stove to boil water and butcher the chicken. Gui Ge'er and Shan Zi should have a good rest. They have suffered a lot on the way back."

After saying that, Su went to the chicken coop to catch the chickens, and Zheng Hongyuan followed Sun Boming to the stove to work.

Huang brought out a lot of snacks from the inner room and said to Sun Shan and Gui Ge'er, "Come, you two, eat something to fill your stomach."

After Huang asked about Sun Shan's situation in the academy, she asked about Gui Ge'er's situation. Knowing that they were both living well in the academy, she felt relieved.

Huang smiled and said, "It's good that you're back. You were too far away, and grandma missed you all the time. She was always worried that you didn't eat well, didn't sleep well, and couldn't get along well with your classmates and teachers in the academy."

Gui Ge'er took a bite of the cake and said anxiously, "Grandma, Shan Ge is doing very well in the academy. His classmates and teachers all like him. I am also doing well in the academy. The book boy and the scholar all like me."

Huang looked at Sun Shan and Gui Ge'er with satisfaction, nodded and said, "I'm glad that I like you. You should get along well with others outside, don't be sharp-tongued, and be polite when you speak. Don't cause trouble, and study hard."
