Chapter 225 Homecoming
Finally we saw the familiar village entrance.
Not only Su Cai'er, but also Zhao Ce couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart.
This came and went, and I was away for nearly a month.
I don’t know how everyone in the village is doing.
It's the end of October now, and even in the daytime when the sun is shining brightly, the weather is a bit cold.
Even if the weather is cold, the big locust tree is still full of people.
Some people sat directly on the spot, and some brought their own benches.
Everyone gathered together in twos and threes and chatted.
When they saw the unfamiliar bullock cart coming in, many people were stunned for a moment.
This bullock cart had a simple hood, and when everyone saw the people inside, everyone under the big locust tree immediately exploded.
"It's Zhao Ce and his wife who are back!"
"Zhao Ce and the others are back?"
When the others heard this, they all stood up and gathered around.
Zhao Ce asked the driver to stop the cart first, jumped out of the cart, and greeted everyone.
"Hello everyone, have you had dinner?"
"Zhao Ce, you are finally back! Is Fucheng fun?"
"Yeah, you've been out for so long, has anything happened?"
Zhao Ce did not publicize in the village that he took Su Cai'er out to treat her leg, so no one knew what Zhao Ce was doing on this trip.
But no matter what, everyone was very happy to see them returning safely from a long trip.
After saying hello, the villagers crowded around Zhao Ce and started talking.
Zhao Ce didn't know which one to answer first, so he could only answer randomly with "Oh, oh, uh, uh".
Su Cai'er in the carriage also poked her little head and started chatting lively with the young lady in the village.
The young couple were surrounded for a while.
Aunt Achun saw that Zhao Ce was being chased by everyone and couldn't answer the questions, so she quickly raised her voice and smoothed things over: "Okay, okay, Zhao Ce and the others must be very tired after walking such a long way back.
"
"Don't ask questions now. Let him go home and take a rest. We'll talk about it then."
Aunt Achun's words finally made the enthusiastic villagers calm down a little.
Zhao Ce smiled and said: "Everyone, come and sit at my house when you have time, and we will have a good chat then."
After saying that, he dealt with it for a few more words before getting on the bullock cart again.
Su Cai'er said excitedly: "Husband, we are finally back."
Zhao Ce was also very happy.
"Well, I'm back."
When the two returned home, Zhao Youcai, who had already received the news, and his family were waiting at the door of Zhao Ce's house.
After seeing Zhao Ce get out of the car, Zhao Youcai walked up to him with a pleased expression on his face.
"Back."
Zhao Ce nodded.
"Uncle, uncle mother."
Li was on the side, directing Zhao Wenhao and Zhao Zhengqiang to help carry things in.
When she heard Zhao Ce calling her, she turned her head and said with a smile: "You don't have to cook tonight. Come to our house to have dinner and cleanse the dust for you two."
"I didn't know you would come back today, otherwise we could prepare more dishes."
Zhao Ce quickly said: "Thank you, auntie."
Mrs. Li smiled and pulled Su Cai'er to ask her about her legs and feet.
After hearing that her leg was really cured, Ms. Li clasped her hands together and said happily: "Is it really cured?"
"That's great. Let me just say, God bless Ce'er's parents. If you go out this time, your dreams will come true."
Zhao Youcai also said: "It's not in vain for you to travel such a long distance."
After Zhao Wenhao and others helped move the things in, Li asked Zhao Ce and his wife to wash up and rest first.
He then told Zhao Wenhao to go to the kitchen and help Zhao Ce and the others boil a large pot of hot water, and then he took his family back to prepare dinner for the evening.
Su Cai'er excitedly packed up the things she brought back, and then went to the kitchen behind with Zhao Ce to wash up separately.
I saw the warehouse next to the kitchen, with shelves full of candies.
Su Cai'er couldn't help but sigh.
Although Fucheng is very nice, the people there don't mind her eyes.
But no matter how good it is, it still can't compare to the feeling of being at home.
After washing up, Zhao Ce asked Zhao Wenhao and Zhao Wenhao to finish the work at hand and go back early today.
Then, he took Su Caier out and planned to have dinner at Zhao Youcai's house.
It's now around four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun has started to set.
The setting sun hit the two of them, stretching their shadows very long.
Su Cai'er walked for a while and suggested in a low voice: "Husband, how about we walk faster?"
In order to take care of Su Cai'er's legs and feet, Zhao Ce would walk very slowly.
But recently, Su Caier's legs have become much stronger, and she wants to walk faster.
Zhao Ce also followed her, pulling her and speeding up his pace. At the same time, he also observed the little girl's walking posture.
Su Cai'er walked for a while and said a little awkwardly: "Husband, you keep looking at me, and I feel like I can't walk."
Zhao Ce laughed and said, "It's much better."
Su Cai'er said "Yeah", "Okay, I can walk very fast and I won't look weird anymore."
"Let's go faster!"
Seeing her childish look, Zhao Ce was in a good mood and said, "Then do you want to run?"
The young couple laughed quietly all the way and said hello to people passing by from time to time.
When he arrived at Zhao Youcai's house, he was naturally treated well.
Li specially killed a chicken, and Zhao Youcai went from house to house asking which family had bought pork and brought some back.
In this way, a table of good meals was improvised.
"You just came back, so you stopped drinking."
"Eat quickly and go back and have a rest."
"There's no need to worry about the school. Let's rest first and then take Shu Xiu out to pay a visit to your teacher."
Zhao Ce responded to all his instructions one by one.
After eating, the sky had darkened.
The late autumn wind blew on my face, which was already very cold.
Li asked them to go back quickly.
Zhao Ce took Su Cai'er, said goodbye to Zhao Youcai and his party, and set out on the road home again.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Su Caier couldn't help but shrink closer to her husband.
When the two went out, the sun had not yet set and the temperature was not too low.
Now after night, the temperature drops very obviously.
Zhao Ce hugged her and said: "When I came out of the inn this morning, I saw that the flowers and plants on the road were covered with a layer of frost. It seems that winter is coming."
In winter here, it hardly snows.
But in late autumn mornings, there will always be a layer of heavy fog, followed by frost.
Su Cai'er said: "I have prepared all the winter clothes. If my husband goes to school tomorrow, he will definitely not be cold if he wears them."
The cotton-padded coat was made thickly, and the cotton inside was all new cotton.
Su Cai'er felt warm just thinking about it.
After returning home, she threw herself on the thick and fluffy quilt, and happily buried her face in it and rubbed it.
Although she is indeed not very afraid of the cold, who doesn't like thick clothes and quilts?
There is a difference between staying at your own home and staying at Yuan Cao's place.
Su Cai'er is obviously more lively than in Fucheng.
Zhao Ce is sorting out the books and articles he will take out tomorrow.
Su Cai'er rubbed the quilt a few times and then got into the quilt.
"The weather is cold, so I need to warm my husband's bed."
Covering myself with the quilt, I couldn't help but sigh.
"It's so warm..."
Su Cai'er warmed the bed and soon fell asleep comfortably.
Chapter completed!
