Chapter 30 Returning to hometown with two little treasures
Lin Shu worked for almost a week to find all the materials that needed to be sewn by hand. Chen Sisi also found all the fabrics to start making. The hand-making process still needs to wait for a while. Lin Shu planned to take the two little treasures back to his hometown. , I was in a hurry to leave without saying hello. In the past few years, my two children have not been able to go back, so I just took this opportunity to go back and see my grandpa.
In the evening, Lin Shu told Chen Sisi in advance, [Sisi, my hometown is not far from Jiangcheng, and there are still some days left for hand sewing. I want to take Chengcheng and Nuonuo back to my hometown when I have time.]
[Of course, Sister Xiao Shu, can you take them back alone? Do you want me to go back with you?] Chen Sisi did not expect that Lin Shu's hometown was near Jiangcheng.
[It’s okay, I still need to keep an eye on the production of clothes here. I’ll be back in two days. You’ll have to work hard these two days.]
[Okay, if anything happens, just call me.] Chen Si thought, these sets of dresses are indeed very important, and he still needs to keep an eye on them, so he doesn't force himself to go back with Lin Shu.
Lin Shu returned to the room and took out her mobile phone to book the tickets and was about to give Lin Yucheng and Lin Yunuo a bath. Lin Yucheng rushed in first and closed the door. [Mom, I will take a bath by myself today. I am a boy. When I grow up, I can take a bath by myself. wash.】
[Okay, then be careful.] Lin Shu knew that his son was well-behaved, sensible, and very independent, so he let him wash himself.
About half an hour later, Lin Yucheng came out after taking a bath and put on his pajamas, "Mom, I've finished washing, you can take your sister to wash."
[Okay, Chengcheng, you go to the bed and cover yourself with the quilt first to avoid catching a cold.] Lin Shu had already laid out the quilt on the bed in advance.
Lin Shu held Lin Yunuo's hand and prepared to take her to take a bath, [Mom, Nuonuo has grown up and wants to wash herself. 】
[Noonuo, dear, mommy will wash you today. When the weather gets hot, Noono can wash it by herself, okay?] Lin Shu seems to want to let them take a bath independently when the temperature is high in summer.
【Okay.】Child Nonuo feels that she has to do what her brother can do, and she is a little unhappy that her mother won’t let her take a bath alone.
But after I entered the bathroom and saw her bath bucket, I completely forgot about it. After all, I was still very happy soaking in her beloved bucket.
After washing up, the family of three lay on the bed, [Promise, promise, promise, mom is going to take you back to mom’s hometown tomorrow to pay homage to your great grandfather.]
[Mom, what does hometown mean? Who is great-grandpa?] Lin Yunuo, a child, asked innocently.
[My hometown is where my mother lived since she was a child, and my great-grandfather is my mother’s grandfather.] Lin Shu explained patiently.
[Is it because the great-great-grandpa has passed away?] The child Lin Yucheng knows better.
[Yes, great-grandfather was my mother’s only relative and has passed away.] Lin Shu mentioned that grandpa was a little sad and his voice was very low.
[It's okay, Mom, you now have two relatives: me and my sister.] Lin Yucheng saw that his mother mentioned that his great-grandpa was unhappy, and he quickly comforted his mother.
[Yes, Mom, you now have two babies, my brother and me.] Lin Yunuo also hugged her mother tightly and comforted her.
"Well, thank God for giving me you two little angels, and thank you for choosing me to be your mother." Lin Shu hugged the two of them tightly as he spoke.
[Go to bed early. We will get up and pack our bags tomorrow morning and set off at noon. Good night.] Lin Shu kissed Chengcheng and Nuonuo on each side's cheeks and hugged them both before falling asleep together.
[Good night, mom.] The two babies said in unison and kissed their mother back.

At noon the next day, Lin Shu took the green leather train with the two children to the town. A taxi took them to the village. The village had changed a lot. The roads were repaired and many people built small buildings. Because of the development of tourist attractions, the village Many people have opened B&Bs and farmhouses. Although it is getting dark, the street lights are bright, colorful flags are hung, and every house is brightly lit.
Lin Shu didn't expect that the village had developed so well in the past few years. With her two children, she was worried that the old house would no longer be habitable for a long time. She found a B&B and went straight in, planning to stay there for the next two days.
Fortunately, it was not the peak tourist season and there were still available rooms. Lin Shu went to the front desk and asked for a double bed room.
Unexpectedly, I met an acquaintance, [Are you Xiaoshu?]
Lin Shu looked up at the B&B proprietress, [Yes, who are you?]
[Oh, I just said they look very similar. You haven’t been back for several years. I am your aunt’s daughter-in-law, sister-in-law Guiping. You probably don’t remember. In the past, your brother Guiping and I were not often at home. It was you. My aunt is here. You were still a little girl when I met you.] As she said that, she turned around and saw Lin Yucheng and Lin Yunuo, [Oh, this is your child. When your grandfather left, I heard from my mother that you were married. Well, in Jiangcheng, the children have grown so big in a blink of an eye.】
After hearing what the landlady said, Lin Shu finally remembered that it was Guiping's sister-in-law next door, "Are you and Brother Guiping back?"
[Yes, Ayao and the village chief have launched a tourism development project. Many young people in the village have come back. Those who open restaurants, those who run B&Bs, those who sell specialties sell specialties. There are also many people coming here to travel. Everyone. The business is pretty good, life is getting better and better, and I can still take care of the elderly and children at home. Everyone is very grateful to Ayao for not forgetting his roots and remembering to help everyone get rid of poverty after walking out of the mountains. Now our village is still one of the top 100 villages in the country. ! ] Sister-in-law Guiping said happily and proudly.
[It’s great, Brother Ayao is still so awesome.] Lin Shu said sincerely.
[Did you come back by yourself? Your husband didn’t come back with you?] Sister-in-law Guiping was very carefree and enthusiastic, so she asked casually.
[Yes, I came back on my own.] Lin Shu did not explain, but casually said that being a single mother after divorce is never a glorious thing, especially in rural areas.
[Then you go to the room and put away your things first. You haven’t eaten yet. I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare some dishes for you and come down for dinner later.]
【It’s too much trouble for you, sister-in-law.】
[You are so polite. They are all from my family. I have to burn it anyway. It is just a matter of extra pairs of chopsticks. I am tired of riding in the car. Here is the room key. Turn left upstairs and there is the first room. You can bring two small ones. Go rest first and I’ll call you for dinner.] After finishing speaking, Sister-in-law Guiping turned around and went to the kitchen.
[Okay, thank you, sister-in-law.] Lin Shu took Lin Yucheng and Lin Yunuo upstairs to the room. The room was large, clean and tidy. There was a big lake outside the window. When you opened the window, you could see the dark night sky. There are one or two stars hanging on it.
[Mom, this place is so beautiful.] Lin Yucheng and Lin Yunuo looked at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and shouted happily.
[Yes, very beautiful.] Lin Shu said to the two babies with a smile.
[Tomorrow morning, mom will take you to see the house where mom lived when she was a child, and then go up the mountain to see your great-grandfather together. 】
【Yeah~~】
Lin Shu looked up at the night sky in his hometown, "Grandpa, I'm back."
