Chapter 1430: Treasures

A week later, Yang Xiuqin returned home alone with two children.

The two children were very well-behaved. After settling them at home, she hurried to the hospital to bring back her belongings.

Yang Xiuqin began living a life of caring for the children at home.

Her health was good, so feeding the two children was absolutely no problem for her.

Once the confinement period was over, she bundled the two children up tightly and went to a photo studio.

The photographer here knew her, so he took many photos of the children.

In this aspect, Yang Xiuqin was very generous.

In Li Family Village, Tao Chunhe, Tao YanZhen, and Wang Menglin decided to go home together once.

Qu Xiaoli couldn’t bear to leave her grandchildren, but she also couldn’t stop her daughter-in-law from returning to her maternal home. After all, she had been here for quite a few years.

"Alright, go ahead. I’ll call Manjiang to see if he has time to visit them. Manjiang has only seen photos since the children were born. Moreover, he married their daughter, and it wouldn’t be appropriate not to have met the elders," Li Yungui advised his daughter-in-law.

"I know, but I’m reluctant to leave Xiao Chen and Xiao Ning."

"It’s fine. Although it’s a bit far, three adults can take care of two children. Don’t worry."

"Why don’t I go with them?" Qu Xiaoli genuinely didn’t feel at ease about her two grandchildren.

"Chaoyang is also returning this year."

Qu Xiaoli was so focused on her grandchildren that she nearly forgot about her son.

"Sigh, go ahead and let their grandparents take a look."

Wang Menglin also understood that the two elders were reluctant to part with the two children. When the family called to ask her cousin to return, she and her sister decided to go back and take a look together as well.

She was reluctant to go without the children, wanting their grandparents, uncles, and aunts to see them.

"Mom, don’t worry. I will definitely take good care of Xiao Chen and Xiao Ning."

"Yes, I trust you, but I can’t let go. You’re leaving, and won’t be back for three to four months," Qu Xiaoli said with a sigh.

Wang Menglin didn’t know how to comfort the elders either.

"Meng Lin, your dad went to call Manjiang to let him find you directly."

This year the eldest son might return. If so, he could visit the father-in-law’s house. It’s impossible not to miss the son, but given his profession, being home all the time isn’t an option.

"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Wang Menglin always felt she was fortunate to have such understanding in-laws.

Tao Chunhe realized that this time returning home meant settling down.

He didn’t have any particular feelings about it, as long as his family was willing.

Tao Chunhe was a sensible person. He never acted solely based on his desires. In his heart, the Tao Family, parents, and sister were more important than anything.

"Xiao Zhen, I’m going to find Yang Zhongyi tomorrow."

"Brother, why are you looking for him?"

"Just to tell him that we’re going back."

"Is it necessary?" Tao YanZhen didn’t have any special feelings toward Yang Zhongyi. Even after getting clear with each other more than a year ago, they just exchanged one or two sentences when they met.

"Xiao Zhen, I’m going back to get married. I just want to ask Yang Zhongyi, if he hasn’t changed, then when we return, you two should also get on with the arrangements."

Tao YanZhen fell silent. Getting married was just getting married.

Tao Chunhe found Yang Zhongyi. "You’re going back to your old home?"

"Yeah, my grandfather didn’t say anything, but I think it’s also to let me return to get married."

"You don’t know her, isn’t there a need for interaction?"

"You’re older than me, why are you still so naive?"

"I take my life seriously and responsibly. That’s also an account for the wife."

"You’re idealizing it too much. Can two people sharing a bed really become mortal enemies?"

If life truly went that way, then just being single would be fine.

Yang Zhongyi said nothing, having lived a peaceful life for two years, and his family no longer pushed him.

"What are your thoughts? We’re all going back; actually, there are many people at home who like Xiao Zhen. If not, let her settle down at home."

Yang Zhongyi was taken aback, "I’ll go back with you and have a talk with Xiao Zhen."

"Alright, I can’t decide Xiao Zhen’s affair, but I won’t let my sister be wronged."

"I understand, I’ll call home first."

"Then I’ll wait outside for you," Tao Chunhe said as he stepped out.

In these two years, although Yang Zhongyi still contacted his family, it had become very scarce.

He mentioned that the Tao Family Brothers and Sisters were going home.

"Old Fourth, what are you thinking? Do you really not want to choose from the Tao Family daughters?" Yang Jiu Long was indeed getting old and had softened. If the youngest son truly didn’t want it, they could go with his wishes.

Yang Zhongyi wore a bitter smile. The girl he liked already had someone else, and she never had him in her heart. "It’s fine, just her. As long as she doesn’t change, we can be together."

"Old Fourth?"

"Dad, I know what I’m saying."

"Alright, if the Tao Family daughter hasn’t changed, why don’t you go to their house once. Your vacation shouldn’t be short."

"Okay, I’ll ask," said Yang Zhongyi, indifferent. It wasn’t Lv Jingchu, anyone else was the same.

The two returned to Li Family Village. Tao YanZhen was packing luggage, which meant just a set of clothes to change. The cousin’s place had too many kids’ things, so they had to keep it simple.

"You two talk, I’m going to the chicken farm to get some chickens," Tao Chunhe left.

"Sit down."

"Xiao Zhen, have your thoughts changed?" Yang Zhongyi asked bluntly.

"I haven’t changed, and you?"

"I haven’t changed either."

"Alright, then that’s settled. I also know how to address it when I return."

"Xiao Zhen, shall I go back with you once?"

"You?"

"Both families have this idea, so I’ll go meet your elders."

Tao YanZhen hesitated. "Alright, you can come back with me."

"Okay, I’ll apply for leave. How long is your vacation? When are you leaving?"

"The day after tomorrow. If your leave isn’t granted, forget about it."

"I’ll give it a try, but if it doesn’t work out, that’s just how it is."

The two of them wouldn’t force anything because of this.

When Tao Chunhe returned, he found Yang Zhongyi had already left.

"He said he’d go back with us."

This matter didn’t surprise Tao Chunhe. Yang Zhongyi had already called home.

"Brother, how are you dealing with these chickens?"

"Take them to Granny Meng Lin. Their cooked chicken is delicious, and it’ll be good for us on the way."

"Alright, I’ll deliver them and also help out with chores."

Qu Xiaoli immediately agreed and sent Changhe to the chicken farm to get six large roosters and a hundred eggs. The goods to be taken to the in-laws were all prepared. Along with six roasted chickens, it wasn’t much.

The remaining eggs were used to cook tea eggs for them to eat on the train. Now, the two grandsons had to eat well; they couldn’t bear seeing them have to sacrifice.
