After all, the old injury on his leg restricted Ning Shouyun's movements. Before he even left the village, he was surrounded by people who heard the shouts.

"Uncle, uncle!" The little girl who was chasing her put her hands on her knees and panted, "Uncle, what's going on?"

Seeing the arrival of the rightful owner, everyone naturally stepped aside. Those who had no intention of joining in the fun left directly and returned to their own homes, not to interfere in other people's right and wrong.

Seeing that her adopted sister was following her, half of her body was covered in dust from the hurried journey. Looking at the creases at the hem of her clothes, she seemed to have fallen behind on the road...

Seeing Ning Shouyun sitting there blankly, with lifeless eyes, everyone didn't know what to do. Even the family of three had no time to exchange known information, so they just watched Ning Shouyun shed tears on the ground.

"I remembered." After a short silence, Ning Shouyun finally calmed down and spoke calmly.

"You can't think of anything... have you remembered?" The foster sister knew that Ning Shouyun had been thinking about her family's kindness in her heart, and there was always a knot in her heart. "Are you willing to talk to us?"

"Uncle, you remembered it all!" This girl has known that her uncle is her mother's step-brother since she was a child, and she knows everything about the past. Now that she heard that Ning Shouyun had regained her memory, she was naturally happy.

"Um."

Before anyone could react, Ning Shouyun said to himself: "I... want to go to the city."

Old things, old feelings, old sorrows, old times, old places, old faces. A hundred years and years are not easy, how can we pass by when the moon shines thousands of miles away?

The fact that things have changed and people have changed is not the saddest thing, and the old friend who can't be found is the thing that gives the little girl and Ning Shouyun a headache.

"Go and play with yourself quickly. Don't just think about accompanying me." After two days of searching, everything in his memory had already changed. Ning Shouyun didn't want to waste the little girl's time anymore, "The girl is here."

I’m about to go to college. If I have the skills in the future, it’s better to have fun now.”

"I'm not going!"

As for Ning Shouyun, who was sitting silently aside - he hadn't received even the slightest news in the past two days, and he couldn't help but feel a bit sad that his old friend was nowhere to be found.

It was late at night, and even the big yellow dog at the head of the village had rested. The whole village was unusually quiet, but there were still those sleepless people, and the moonlight was melancholy.

"Although those are your uncle's past memories, if he doesn't tell us, we have no right to inquire..."

"Uncle, we can all see that day!" The niece suddenly froze in place and turned back to look at Ning Shouyun, with a serious smile still on her face that had not dissipated just now.

But at that time, in this land that was in need of development, carriages and horses were not as convenient as they are today. Even today, Haidian, the capital city that leads the world in science, education, and culture, is still a rice field.

Perhaps there was something on his mind, or maybe it was because the word "newspaper" shocked Ning Shouyun. Although he did not respond to the comrade selling the newspaper, he turned around and found a chair for the director to sit down.

"Hey, comrade, don't leave yet!"

"Yeah." Of course Ning Shouyun is not worried about his niece. The little girl can go to college with her own ability, so she has nothing to worry about.

"Uncle!" The little girl looked anxious at Ning Shouyun's appearance, but she didn't feel like saying anything, so she simply sat down next to the former.

The world outside the story has long since changed. In the story, Ning Shouyun is still struggling to find everything that belongs to his memory.

As soon as the little girl opened her mouth, everyone realized that there had just been a girl in their village who had passed the university entrance examination... Now this family has experienced double happiness, and they don't know what kind of virtue they have accumulated.

After the villagers had almost dispersed and the morning light had climbed from the horizon to the tops of everyone's heads, Ning Shouyun returned to the courtyard with his adopted sister's family.

Unable to defeat his niece, Ning Shouyun was pulled by the former to get up and run towards the West Lake.

"uncle……"

"Uncle, did you know that when we talk about the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in our book, the starting point is the capital and the focus is our Hangzhou!"

"Okay!" The foster sister was afraid that Ning Shouyun had worked so hard to get to the city, but her hopes were in vain, so she didn't dare to respond. But the little niece, on the other hand, just thought that no matter what the outcome, just go to the city.

Can I not have any regrets with my uncle?

Not to mention that the niece was so happy just listening to her mother's words, "The national flag was raised in that square. If my uncle finds his relatives by then, we can go to BJ together."

Going to the city should be an extremely easy task nowadays. Even from the no-man's land of Hoh Xil, it is not difficult to get to the capital.

"Comrade, you just sent your child to school?" The newspaper seller saw that Ning Shouyun seemed to have something on his mind, so he took the initiative to get close to the latter, "Are you worried that it is not safe for the girl to go out alone?"

He picked up the newspaper in his hand and handed it to Ning Shouyun. The comrade selling the newspaper immediately said, "Comrade, do you want a newspaper?"

Ning Shouyun didn't answer the question, and the newspaper seller didn't care, "Hey, that's the same, that car is going to BJ... BJ is fine, don't worry!"

If the news received in the newspaper was the result that he did not want to hear, Ning Shouyun felt that it would be better to just deceive him.

Since returning to the house, the adopted sister has not mentioned her worries - time has changed, will Ning Shouyun's family still be in Hangzhou?

"Uncle, Hangzhou was once the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, and its economy was very developed."

Children always yearn for beautiful things. Ning Shouyun could understand his niece's thoughts and affirmed the former's ideals with a smile, watching the little girl jumping around in front, playing with the scenery...

The newspaper seller started chatting, saying something here and there. Ning Shouyun was already very confused, so he simply stood up and turned around to leave the train station.

"I am her uncle."

"At that time, celadon, swords, silk and satin were all things that the whole world was rushing to buy..."

"In this case, you take your uncle to the city and follow him to find his old friend."

The matter of taking Ning Shouyun to the city was settled in a few words by the family. The three members of the family never asked what made the former recall these past events that had been forgotten for decades.

"Okay, it's settled like this. The girl can just adapt to the specific matters."

Coming to Hangzhou to search for memories of the past is a self-deceptive dream. Ning Shouyun understands that he should have realized it a long time ago...

Ning Shouyun also knew that a lot of things could change in a few decades. Even if He Qinglian was still alive, he didn't know where he was now.

Ning Shouyun kept mumbling to the slowly moving car window. His low voice was probably not meant for the little girl, but more like talking to himself. He didn't know what he was mumbling, but he suddenly fainted unconsciously.

Lift the corners of your lips.

Facing his niece's words, Ning Shouyun just shook his head, sat silently on the stone platform aside and buried his face in his hands.

"I don't know if they have been admitted to college... Even now, college is not something you can just go to if you want. But if Qinglian takes the exam, there will definitely be no problem."

"The girl has grown up..."

"uncle?"

"Uncle, you go with me!"

The stories in history are always so attractive to explore. As for the new world in the future, the little girl has thought about it countless times: "Hangzhou will definitely be more prosperous than that time."

The little girl knew that if there had been no New China, she would have never had the chance to continue studying at a higher education institution in BJ. So, like all her peers, she wanted to see those great people.

"If Anwar and An Xia had lived until now, they would have finished college."

"This is a story, but... An Ji, their generation has already seen it. Aren't their descendants us?"

As for Ning Shouyun, he was so immersed in the joy of recovering his memory that he almost lost his sanity to think.

The little girl knew that her uncle did not have such a good opportunity at that time to come into contact with the stories belonging to the motherland in books.

After all, it was Ning Shouyun's own business. No matter how worried the niece was, she couldn't interfere too much. She could only let her uncle immerse himself in his own thoughts.

"This newspaper is the latest today. Comrade, don't you want to read it?" Seeing that Ning Shouyun didn't respond, the newspaper seller started selling it again.

"I just don't know if I can walk around Tiananmen Square and see the flag raising after going to BJ..."

After parting at the train station, Ning Shouyun, who had seen off his niece, felt nothing but pride in his heart. What was left was only the emptiness from body to heart.

Seeing the sparkling waves on the West Lake, the little girl's smile became even brighter and she wanted to tell her uncle everything she knew.

"The girl is going to BJ to go to school. You can only take the train to BJ if you go to the city. I just take this opportunity to leave early... You guys go to the city together, and the girl also goes to BJ early to visit Tiananmen!"

"

Now Ning Shouyun finally reacted, and turned around to return the newspaper, but he didn't expect that the comrade selling the newspaper had already blended into the crowd and was not even visible.

"Old uncle, uh...comrade?" Ning Shouyun's back was a bit stooped. Looking from behind, he thought he was an old man in his seventies or eighties. He only waited until he turned around to call the comrade who was selling the newspaper.

Not to mention the war-torn Hangzhou, which still needs to slowly recover... "Going to the city" is naturally an unattainable dream for many people.

Seeing that Ning Shouyun paused and resumed walking without any intention of stopping, the newspaper seller stood up and chased after him for a few steps, rolled up the newspaper and stuffed it into the Ning Shouyun's pocket.

Grandpa's words caused An Ji to curl up his right index finger and bring it to the corner of his eye to feel the warm emotion.

"Mom, it's natural for you to care about your uncle, but I haven't said anything to my uncle today." The little girl couldn't think of what words touched her uncle's thoughts. "Maybe it's because I got into college?"

People who have experienced the flames of war naturally yearn for a peaceful life. Ning Shouyun does not have such a lofty dream as his niece. In his heart, he only hopes that everyone can live well. No matter whether they have food and clothing or not, it is enough for the family to be together without being separated.

Ning Shouyun's biggest dream.

Having said that, it was just the family's own business. The little girl's father made arrangements for all the villagers to disperse, and promised to spend some time just to thank them.

After hearing what her daughter said, the mother just nodded silently, looked up at her husband, and received a positive answer in the latter's eyes.

"Uncle, the West Lake is beautiful. Shall we go and see the West Lake?"

The light and shadow fall faintly on the little girl's shoulders, her bright eyes smile, which is the ideal of many predecessors.

"Comrade, it's time to..."

"Girl, you should go to school and register as soon as possible. Uncle can take care of yourself here."

After walking out of the train station, Ning Shouyun headed straight for the way he came - his niece has grown up, and no matter how entangled the past is, since there is no such fate, there is no need to force anything.

The little girl suddenly spoke, and without waiting for her uncle's response, she stood up, turned to the latter, and stretched out her hands: "Let's go, uncle!"

"Uncle, since you are already here, why don't you insist anymore and why don't you follow me to contact the newspaper?" The little girl's mind was pure and simple. She only wanted to make her uncle's wish come true, but she never thought that all this would have to be established.

In your best assumptions.

"Yes, they have already seen it..."
