Chapter 344: Meeting Madam Hu Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Bian Yuanzhi wanted to take a look at his home. Ever since he came back from the desert, he stayed in the Ding Family for a few days before being sent to the Gu Family.
Until now, he had never returned to the warm home where his parents and sister used to live.
Gu Yundong immediately agreed. She also wanted to take a look.
The Bian Family was a little far away. After leaving the county city, they had to pass by Gu village and the Ding Family’s Shangbei Village. After passing another village, they arrived at his house.
Her eldest uncle Bian Han’s parents had passed away a few years ago. His family had never had many children. Bian Yuanzhi’s only close relative was Bian Han’s sister, who had long been married off. Unfortunately, he did not return after escaping.
Guashia Village was not big and was poorer than Gu village and Shangbei Village. After the disaster, it was even poorer and there were not many people left in the village.
When they saw Gu Yundong and the rest, they looked over curiously.
It was only when they saw them going to the Bian family that they suddenly remembered. Wasn’t he the child from the Bian family?
The Bian Family had long been in shambles. When they left previously, they had taken everything they could. Those that could not be taken away had probably been plundered long ago.
However, looking at the familiar room and environment, Bian Yuanzhi was still very happy.
After the joy, her heart ached. Her sister was gone and she would never come back. She did not know where her parents were or if they were still alive.
Gu Yundong looked around and realized that there were some wood carvings in the corner. These were all made by her uncle.
Eldest Uncle used to be a carpenter. Unfortunately, he had only learned it for a short period of time, so he could only make some trinkets for a living.
Gu Yundong took a piece of cloth from the carriage and laid it on the ground. She placed the small wooden carvings on it.
Seeing this, Bian Yuanzhi also ran over to help.
Now that he could eat and wear warm clothes, he felt much stronger. After packing the small wooden carvings, he carried them on his back.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw a few people surrounding him. A young-looking woman asked him, “Yuanzhi, is it you?”
Bian Yuanzhi still remembered this person. She was the aunt next door. He immediately put down his things, “Aunt Li, it’s me.”
“I heard that you went to your grandpa’s house. Why are you back?” The two villages were far apart, so Auntie Li really didn’t know what kind of life he was living.
Although she knew that his family and his grandfather’s family did not have a good relationship, she did not expect it to be so bad.
Bian Yuanzhi looked at Gu Yundong, then turned around and said, “I’m not at my grandpa’s house anymore. I’m out. Auntie Li, I’m leaving. I might not come back in the future.”
Aunt Li was stunned. She looked at him, then at Gu Yundong and Mdm Yang. She did not ask further. She just sighed and said, “No matter what, it’s good to be alive. It’s not easy to have a full meal these days. You’re a good child. Take good care of yourself.”
Based on Bian Yuanzhi’s current attire, he seemed to be doing well. He should be living a good life.
Bian Yuanzhi nodded at Aunt Li with a smile. He now had a cousin and his aunt, Ah Shu and Keke. He was very good.
Picking up the cloth bag on the ground, Bian Yuanzhi walked towards the carriage.
Unexpectedly, halfway there, he suddenly saw someone walking over.
As soon as Bian Yuanzhi saw that person, he recalled a bad memory. He turned around and ran towards Gu Yundong, holding her hand nervously.
Only then did Gu Yundong look up at Madam Hu, who was walking over.
Madam Hu was also surprised. She looked at Bian Yuanzhi and was speechless for a long time..
