Chapter 130.2

Xiao Doubao wanted to give the rice and oil he earned to his grandparents. Han Cheng initially planned to unload half of the things and leave the rest in the car to bring back to Su Family Village directly. Xiao Fantuan said he wanted to leave the formula and malted milk he earned for his younger sibling.

People used to say that he was already so smart, so drinking a little less wouldn’t matter. Let Yao Bao drink more, and in the future, he could also become a clever baby.

What else can Su Xiaoxiao say?

After some thought, she decided to leave all the items in the car and take them back to Sujia Village. After all, they would consume quite a bit of food when they returned, and the supplies Han Cheng sent home could be used then. Fantuan and Doubao’s grandparents (their biological mother’s parents) were still in Sujia Village, so she could also bring them a portion.

She only brought up this matter with Han Cheng after the children had all gone for their afternoon nap.

Han Cheng pondered for a moment and said, “The newly appointed leaders are vigorously rectifying wrongful cases and implementing policies. The Yang family hasn’t committed any major mistakes. They should be among the first to return to the city. I guess they should be able to return by next year at the latest.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “That’s really great. How about letting the children meet them when we go back this time?”

Han Cheng shook his head, gently rubbed his kind wife’s head, and said, “There’s no rush for now. After they return to the city, I’ll take Fantuan and Doubao to visit them separately. We shouldn’t complicate things for our parents.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “That works, but what about these things when the time comes? The children know everything; Fantuan and Xiao Doubao are quite clever.” These two little cubs are not easy to deceive.

Han Cheng said, “Just talk to them in advance. Say that a few teachers behind our courtyard are going through tough times, and we’re sending them a New Year’s gift. Tell the kids not to talk about it outside. We can go back after dinner and unload the things from the backyard in the dark, then circle around to the front. This way, we won’t be noticed, and we won’t have to explain to our parents.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Sending something to Fantuan and Doubao’s grandparents once a year, and we have to make it look like some illegal business. What kind of situation is this?”

Han Cheng hugged his wife and kissed her. Su Xiaoxiao had a very kind heart and put herself in the shoes of others. Other people may not have the same broad-minded and magnanimous attitude as her. It is precisely because of this that the children she taught are also as kind as hers. “It’s okay. These days should be over soon. If I’m not mistaken, Director Jiang should have included content responding to the policy call in the propaganda pamphlets he made with the kids. He probably received some advance information. When the pamphlets are out, there should be a significant and positive change.”

Su Xiaoxiao often wondered why Han Cheng had such a keen sense. She vaguely remembered that from next year on, there would be a large influx of educated youth returning to the city. The year after that, the resumption of the college entrance examination would mark the end of this period. Her grasp of politics and history was average, and as for specific timelines, she truly couldn’t recall.

………………

Xiao Roubao has already started sleeping with his brothers.  In Xiao Tangyuan’s room, Han Cheng had crafted many little things that girls liked, even hanging a string of wind chimes. Su Xiaoxiao had asked Yali for help in sewing beautiful curtains and small decorations. Her room and little bed were decorated very warmly, and now she was reluctant to go back to her parent’s room, preferring to sleep with her door open in her own room.

The brothers’ rooms were also left open, and with a shout from the little girl, they would rush over.

At first, the little girl thought her brothers were deliberately playing with her.

Later, she grew particularly fond of this game, turning it into a routine of shouting “Brother” before sleeping, upon waking up, even in her dreams, she would call them. Basically, whenever she had a chance, she would shout, “Brother! ”, keeping the brothers constantly busy.

……………..

Three days later, Han Cheng took an early vacation, and the whole family packed up and set out on the journey back to Su Family Village.

Xiao Zhuzi and the others would start their journey in two days. As they wouldn’t see their younger siblings for many days, he came early in the morning and hugged his sister, refusing to let go.

The sister thought Zhuzi would leave with them. However, when the car started moving, Zhuzi didn’t get on. He chased after them, waving his hands outside, making her anxious as she pounded on the window: “Mom, mom, Gege!”

Su Xiaoxiao hugged the little girl and said, “Your brother Zhuzi won’t come with us. He needs to go back to the city to see his grandfather first and come back to meet us in a few days. Can we go first?”

The little girl pouted, blinking her teary eyes as she looked at her mother. “Not good~”

Zhuzi really loves her younger sister too much. In Xiao Tangyuan’s eyes, he was just like the brothers at home. All the brothers were in the car with her, and when the car left, only he stayed behind. Naturally, the little girl was unhappy.

Su Xiaoxiao held her in her arms and said, “Even if it’s not good, we have to do it this way. In any case, it will take a few days to see Xiao Zhuzi again. Look at that little bird outside. How high do you think it can fly?”

Su Xiaoxiao attempted to divert the little girl’s attention, but she wasn’t listening, constantly turning her head to look at her brother Zhuzi. No matter how the brothers teased her, she remained displeased, with puffed-up cheeks—a completely new experience for the little girl.
