Ma Guoli lowered his head and worked and said: If you ladies are not here, how can there be a year? The village has developed rapidly in recent years, with roads being built and telephones established. If you ladies want to come back, please send a message first.

I will definitely prepare pork for you. When will you come back and when will our family celebrate the New Year?

Zhang Caixia burst into tears again, covered her face with her hands, turned around and entered the house.

The day of departure finally arrived. Early in the morning, Xiangzi hid among the villagers and sent Zhang Caixia's family off with some family gifts. Everyone said goodbye to each other with tears in their eyes. The villagers were very simple people, and most of the things they gave were food.

, it’s not worth much money, but it’s so much that it can’t even fit in the entire donkey cart. It’s really impossible to carry it. This moved Zhang Caixia to tears. She held Cui Xiulan’s hand tightly and said: Thank you, thank you everyone, this thing is not worth it.

Take it, you see, this donkey cart can't even fit in it. Let's take it back. We accept it with all our heart. In the future, if you have a chance, you can come to us.

Cui Xiulan cried and said: Sister Caixia, you have suffered so much these years.

Zhang Caixia shed tears and said with a smile: "Look what my sister said, I am very happy when I am with you."

Cui Xiulan burst into tears and said with a smile: Then will you come back to see us?

Zhang Caixia smiled and said: Of course, I will definitely come back to see you if I have the chance.

When Zhang Haiyan saw Xiangzi and Niuzi hiding in the crowd, holding a beautiful wild chrysanthemum in their hands, Zhang Haiyan did not dare to come forward, so she took out a book from her bag, ran over, cried and laughed: Brother Xiangzi,

Are these flowers for me?

Xiangzi's eyes were red and he handed the flower in his hand to Haiyan. Haiyan happily took the wild chrysanthemum, put it in front of her nose and smelled it: "This flower is so fragrant and beautiful. We don't have this flower around here. You must have run away."

You walked a lot of mountain roads to pick it, right? I will accept this flower, but you should not pick it again in the future.

Zhang Haiyan was finally willing to accept his gift, which made him very happy, so she said: You know, I will never give flowers to others again.

When Zhang Haiyan heard Xiangzi's words, she couldn't help but blush. She quickly explained with a smile: "That's not what I meant. I meant that flowers are like people. They will hurt. When you pick them, they will be dead."

No, I don’t want to watch a life die, especially a flower, which is still so beautiful after death, leaving behind beauty and fragrance.

Xiangzi seemed to understand but not understand what Zhang Haiyan meant. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only look at Zhang Haiyan and giggle.

Zhang Haiyan looked at Xiangzi's silly smile and couldn't help but laugh and said: Don't talk about this anymore, you are also very good. I also congratulate you on being admitted to a school in the provincial capital.

Xiangzi immediately became excited and said: When I graduate, I will definitely come to see you.

Zhang Haiyan smiled and said: Welcome, by the way, Brother Xiangzi, I know you have been hanging around my door these days, why don't you come in to find me? Are you afraid that he will beat you?

When Xiangzi saw Zhang Haiyan asking this question, he immediately blushed and said: I'm not afraid of him! My father is the village chief, I just don't dare to see you.

Zhang Haiyan smiled happily, handed over the book in her hand and said: You can be tough, this book is for you, I have prepared it a long time ago, it is the hometown of Lu Xun's novels, I like Runtu in it very much, please be nice

Read it.

Seeing Xiangzi taking the book, Zhang Haiyan smiled at him again, turned back and got on the donkey cart. Ma Guoli drove the cart, and the whole family sat in the cart and waved goodbye to the villagers.

As the wheel rolled forward, Zhang Caixia looked into the distance and said with a smile: It's rare.

In Ma Guoli's memory, this was the first time in eighteen years that Zhang Caixia took the initiative to talk to him. This made him excited and a little overwhelmed. He asked in confusion: What's so rare?

Zhang Caixia looked at Ma Guoli and said with a charming smile: I haven't seen you take a sip of wine in these days. How nice it is. How peaceful this family is.

In Ma Guoli's memory, this was the first time Zhang Caixia smiled at him. Although he knew that Zhang Caixia's smile must be beautiful, he had only seen it in a dream. Seeing it now, it seemed like a dream, and he was very moved and said: "You

I came from outside. You know the outside world better than I do. If you encounter difficulties, just come back.

Ma Xiaohu interrupted: Mom, what's it like outside?

Zhang Caixia said: It has been eighteen years, and I don’t know what it is like now. I think it is very different from what we have here.

Zhang Caixia said to Ma Guoli again: The world has changed, and you are getting older. You have done too many immoral things in the past, and it is time to stop now. Sooner or later in your life, you have to pay back.

Ma Guoli said thoughtfully: Now that you leave, you will never come back again, right?

Zhang Caixia glanced at him with a charming smile and said: Maybe, if you still miss us, you can come and see us! After all, Zhuzi, Huzi is your flesh and blood.

At the county long-distance bus station, Zhang Caixia and others got on the bus, and Ma Guoli helped hand over their luggage.

Zhang Caixia said: From now on, you are alone. You have to take good care of yourself. You are getting older, so you should quit drinking and accumulate more virtue.

Ma Guoli said: If you can't do it, come back. Zhuzi, you have to take good care of your mother and keep an eye on your wife!

Zhang Caixia looked in the direction of that home. Eighteen years ago, when she was eighteen years old, she came to this Shibali Township. At that time, she made up her mind and planned to bury her here. But who could have imagined that eighteen years later?

Today, she was able to leave here happily with her eighteen-year-old daughter and two sons. She couldn't believe it was true. Eighteen years seemed like a dream. During these years, she was not

She never thought about leaving. When she first came here, she thought about leaving every day, almost every moment. As time went by, the thought of leaving gradually faded away and was buried deeply in her mind.

In her heart, she didn’t want to let it sprout. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to leave, nor that she couldn’t leave. If she wanted to leave, no one could stop her, but where was she going? Where could she go? What was she going to do? She was gone.

Goal, she lost motivation, and slowly she even lost her ideas. This life was quietly buried in the loess unknowingly. Now, she is going to accompany her daughter to school, and she wants to make this family live a better life.

Even better, she was even thinking that one day, she would be able to take her children to see her relatives far away. She really missed them. Now, more than ever, she thought that God had forgiven her, and she believed that from now on

God wants to help her, and the motivation inspired by this goal is like bamboo shoots springing up after the rain, and it is growing day by day. She is radiant, she is still young,

She decided to be reborn again.

The car was gradually disappearing. Ma Guoli squinted his eyes and shielded himself from the dazzling sunlight with his hands, trying to trace the car.
