CHAPTER 1021: CHAPTER 1023: CLASSMATE

Gaoliang County, Shuanghe Village.

Upon reaching the village entrance, Jiang Wanru didn’t want the car to go any further inside.

"Let’s get out here. I want to see where Yuyu grew up!" Jiang Wanru stood at the village entrance, looking at the three characters ’Shuanghe Village’, feeling an extreme sense of familiarity in her heart. As she looked around at the surrounding mountains and forests, everything seemed vividly familiar.

"I heard from Nianhua that if you follow the road into the village, the two-story building with the whitewashed walls on the roadside is her house." Su Xi took a deep breath; the air in the village was particularly fresh.

Although Ningbei also had mountains, they were all low hills, different from the mountains here. The lush green mountains here were very pleasing to the eye.

"The village road isn’t paved. It’s fine when it’s sunny, but if it rains, your shoes will get wet." Su Lie looked at the muddy path and said, "Dad, we can pay to build a cement road for the village, so that my sister won’t have to walk on such a muddy path when she returns."

"Okay." Su Jinrong protected Jiang Wanru, fearing she might fall, and said, "Xiaolie, you’re in charge of this. Make sure the road is properly built. The Xu Family raised Yuyu, and this kindness must stay in our hearts."

"When we meet the Xu Family later, we must be careful about our attitude so as not to hurt their feelings." Jiang Wanru reminded, "We’re here to acknowledge Yuyu, not to take her away from the Xu Family."

"Mom, I know."

Su Lie felt he had heard it so often during the journey that his ears developed calluses.

"Does Auntie live inside here?" Su Hong’en said excitedly. In the sunlight, he walked faster than Su Jinrong and the others, eager to meet his aunt.

"Yes, Auntie lives inside here." Fang Manyin whispered in Su Hong’en’s ear, "When you see Auntie’s family later, remember to greet them, okay?"

"Got it."

Su Hong’en replied joyfully and walked briskly into the village.

After entering the village, the first whitewashed two-story building they saw made the Su Family think it was the Xu Family’s house. Only after some excitement did they realize that the Xu Family’s house was further in.

"Who are you to Nianhua?" Aunt Hu asked curiously. Her family had just completed their new house at the end of last year. Seeing Jiang Wanru and her entourage, she was very curious. They all had such a distinct and refined demeanor, yet they had walked here.

"We..." Su Lie wanted to say they were looking for his sister, but realized they hadn’t met the family yet, so he decided to stay quiet for now.

"I’m a classmate of Nianhua’s. I came all the way from Ningbei." Su Xi stepped forward with a bright smile and said, "Aunt, do you know where Nianhua’s house is?"

"A classmate?" Aunt Hu scrutinized Su Xi, clicking her tongue in awe, "Such a pretty young lady, like someone who walked right out of a TV show."

Su Xi, accustomed to such compliments, smiled as she asked, "Aunt, can you tell me where Nianhua’s house is?"

Aunt Hu was confused in her mind, wondering why someone visiting a classmate would bring the whole family.

However, feeling that the family seemed very kind, she warmly gave directions: "Certainly, just keep following the road further in. The two-story new house, a bit bigger than ours and near the factory buildings, is Nianhua’s house."

The Su Family easily identified Xu Nianhua’s home.

Standing in front of the Xu Family’s house, Jiang Wanru suddenly didn’t dare to enter.

"Who are you..."

Zhou He happened to be coming out with Zhuangzhuang when she saw the whole Su family.

"You must be Nianhua’s sister-in-law, right? I’ve heard Nianhua mention you. Oh, this is Zhuangzhuang. How adorable!" Su Xi enthusiastically stepped forward, her identity as a classmate being the most natural way to introduce herself at the moment. "I’m Su Xi, I study with Nianhua at Beining University."
