After marrying an officer, she was spoiled by the group

Chapter 428 One night of white hair

After walking on the muddy road for two hours, I finally saw the outline of the village.

His homesickness reached its peak at this moment, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

In the evening, every household in the village began to cook, curls of smoke rose up, and the sounds of children playing could be heard everywhere.

Because it had just snowed, several children were making snowmen in front of their house.

Seeing the stranger, the children became wary and stayed away from Jingnan. Two of them even ran home, shouting, "The beggars are coming! The beggars are coming!"

Jingnan was just about to chase after him to explain, but the child's shouting attracted the attention of the adults, who came with carrying poles, hoes and other tools and were ready to fight with Jingnan.

But when they came out and saw his outfit, everyone was slightly stunned.

Even after three years, the familiar look between his eyebrows still made people recognize him. An uncle recognized him and happily confirmed: "You...you are Jingnan?"

"Uncle Champion! It's me."

"Haha, it really is you, kid. You've grown so tall and strong." Then he said happily to everyone: "He's not Pai Huazi, it's Xiao Nanzi who is back!"

Some people still didn't realize who Xiao Nanzi was, so he explained, "Jing Nan, the head of the Jingwu family."

Jing Wu was an outsider, and he was the only family with the surname Jing in Liujia Village. Everyone knew about this after hearing it.

Everyone suddenly realized: "It turned out to be Xiao Nanzi! Oh my god! She used to be a skinny little monkey, how come she has changed so much in just a few years?"

After chatting with the villagers for a while, he suggested going home first and visiting again another day.

After he walked away, Liu Guanjun said regretfully, "He raised Jing Jing single-handedly. If he knew... Oh! What a sin! Our family life was slowly getting better, and now we have to deal with something like this."

"Who said it wasn't? I hope the child won't be too sad."

Liu Jianjun looked deeply in the direction where Jing Nan left and murmured, "I hope..."

The originally dilapidated house now looks brand new. Although it is a mud house, it is much better than before.

He was carrying a large marching bag and holding things for his family in his hands. He pushed the gate and entered the yard smoothly. Smoke was rising from the direction of the kitchen. The long-lost smell of fireworks made him stop where he was.

After about half a minute, he slowly walked towards the kitchen. When he reached the kitchen door, Jing Nan put the things in his hands on the ground. When he entered the kitchen and saw the figure busy cooking, he called out in a trembling voice: "Mom!"

Seeing his mother's appearance, tears welled up in his eyes. He never expected that his mother, who was in her early 40s, would now have white hair.

The word "mother" startled the woman who was stirring the vegetables in the pot.

She slowly looked towards the kitchen door. There stood a tall figure. Her eyes were blurry and she couldn't see who it was. She trembled and asked uncertainly, "Is it Xiaonanzi?"

"Mom! It's me, Xiao Nanzi. I'm back to see you." As Jing Nan approached, he realized that there seemed to be something wrong with his mother's eyes. She had to squint to focus on things.

At this moment, she squinted her eyes slightly, trying to see Jingnan's appearance clearly. Although she could only see a little outline, she was still filled with tears of joy. She hugged her son and cried out loudly: "Son! You are finally back! Wuuwuwu, mother missed you so much."

"Mom, I miss you too. Mom, what's wrong with your eyes? And what's wrong with your hair? Didn't I send money home? Didn't you receive it? Where's Dad? And where's Jingjing?" Jing Nan was full of doubts at this time, and he had a hunch that something had happened at home.

Jing Nan's series of questions made her tremble all over. It seemed that he had touched a sore spot. She fell backwards and was quickly supported by Jing Nan. "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Mom is fine, just a little dizzy. Your dad is in the room... You go see him. I'll cook first. If you have any questions, ask your dad. He will tell you." She calmed herself down and said while holding the stove.

"Mom, you take a rest, I'll cook."

"No need, Mom is fine. Go see your dad, he misses you so much." Mother wiped her tears and pushed Jingnan out of the kitchen.

Although she was sad, Jingnan's return home was a happy event for the family. She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and found three eggs from the cupboard, ready to make egg drop soup for Jingnan.

Helpless, since his mother wouldn't tell him, Jingnan could only go find his father.

After entering the main room, Jingnan placed his backpack on the bench beside the door.

After finding his parents' room, Jing Wu was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. The room was filled with a strong smell of herbs, and he was on the verge of collapse.

Jing Nan shouted with trembling lips: "Dad!"

The sound was not loud, but it was particularly crisp in the quiet room. Jing Wu slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the sound.

Jing Nan walked to the bedside with heavy steps: "Dad! It's me, I'm back!"

Jing Wu's lips trembled, and he finally uttered a sound, his voice hoarse: "Xiao Nanzi! Xiao Nanzi."

He stepped forward and shook his father's outstretched hand: "Dad, it's me! Your son is back."

Jing Wu burst into tears, his eyes full of pain: "Xiao Nanzi, you are finally back! Wuwuwu."

"Dad, what's wrong with you? What happened at home?"

Jing Wu cried for a long time before telling the story.

It turned out that just a year ago, Jing Wu was going to the town to buy something, and Jing Jing wanted to go with him. She had never left the village since she was a child, and she wanted to go out and see what the outside world was like.

After much begging, they had no choice but to take them with them. Before leaving, their mother asked them to come back early.

Little did they know that a disaster was waiting for them.

The town is quite far from the village, and it would take about two hours even if one walked fast. Taking Jing Jing with him, Jing Wu slowed down his pace.

The two of them walked and rested, and Jing Wu would occasionally carry her for a while, but even so, it took four hours to reach the town.

They were starving and ate the chive pancakes their mother made for them.

I went to the post office first, and found the money and some bills that Jingnan sent home.

Then he took Jing Jing to the supply and marketing cooperative and used the meat coupons to buy a pound of meat and two taels of sugar. As for the cloth coupons and so on, they were saved by Jing Wu.

Jing Jing couldn't move her feet as she stared at the pastries in the supply and marketing cooperative, swallowing her saliva from time to time.

Seeing this, Jing Wu weighed a pound of egg cake for her.

This was the first time Jing Jing had eaten egg cake. It was so delicious that she squinted her eyes. She did not forget to share it with Jing Wu. However, he was used to being poor, so he was reluctant to eat a single bite. He asked Jing Jing to keep it for herself and take it back to her mother.

It was already late when they returned. The two of them were being targeted by four big men without knowing it. Although Jing Jing was still young, she had grown up and was spoiled at home. She was always provided with delicious food. Her complexion gradually looked better, no longer sallow, and her skin became fairer.

Seeing that there were only the father and daughter, the four of them became malicious and followed them all the way.
