The Beginning of the World: Going to the Countryside as an Educated Youth

Chapter 320 Returning Home to Visit Relatives

Zhao Dongchuan stood up, brushed off the dust on his pants, and left back to the workshop.

……

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Zhao Dongchuan pushed his bicycle into the yard...

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Yu Haitang and Xu Damao talking and laughing as they walked from the middle yard to the front yard.

"Haitang, let me tell you that the mutton hotpot at Donglaishun is so delicious... You will definitely like it..."

"Really? I've heard that Donglaishun's mutton hotpot is the best, but unfortunately my family is not well off... My parents won't take me there..."

"Hehe...if your parents don't want to take you, I will...I don't have anything else...but I have money...Let's go!"

Xu Damao said this with a grin, but the corner of his mouth couldn't help but tilt...he looked vulgar.

"Hahaha... I believe it. I've heard from people in the courtyard a long time ago... that you, Xu Damao, are the richest person in this courtyard..."

Yu Haitang laughed, her smile was as beautiful as a flower, and Xu Damao was dumbfounded...

Xu Damao was about to say something else, but when he saw Zhao Dongchuan pushing his bicycle over, he stopped talking and glanced at him sideways.

That expression contained a hint of disdain and a hint of complacency.

"Boy, see? I'm rich and have beautiful women around me. I'm much better than that country girl Qin Jingru in your family!"

Xu Damao was secretly proud of himself and wanted to feel superior in front of Zhao Dongchuan.

Unfortunately, he miscalculated.

Zhao Dongchuan just glanced at him indifferently, ignored him, and pushed his bicycle past the two of them.

Yu Haitang originally wanted to say hello to him, but she felt that she and Zhao Dongchuan had little in common and were not very familiar with each other, so she stopped talking.

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere recovered slightly after a few people passed by.

Then the two of them continued to walk out, talking and laughing.

……

"Master, you're back!"

Qin Jingru was delighted when she heard the sound and lifted the cotton door curtain, and hurriedly invited Zhao Dongchuan into the house.

"Master, are you busy in the workshop today..."

"Haha, there are constant disturbances in the factory right now. There is nothing to do. No one cares about production tasks... Everyone is busy with this and that..."

Zhao Dongchuan took off his scarf and was about to hang it up when Qin Jingru took it over...

She took off Zhao Dongchuan's thick cotton-padded jacket and said with a smile: "We ordinary people can't care so much..."

"As long as we live our own lives well..."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, you still think it through!"

"Well, let's go back to our hometown in a few days to visit your parents, buy some things... and relax... just treat it as a trip..."

Zhao Dongchuan sat at the table, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Really?"

Qin Jingru was very happy, with a look of surprise on her face!

It has been a while since she last visited her parents. In this courtyard, apart from doing housework every day, she is like a waitress waiting for her husband to return. It is really boring.

When I heard Zhao Dongchuan say that he wanted to go back to the countryside, I was naturally very happy.

"Hahaha, no way, would I deceive you..."

Zhao Dongchuan hugged Qin Jingru and looked at her with a smile.

"Master, you are so nice..."

"I am blessed to marry you after several lifetimes..."

"Don't talk about this. You are my woman, and I should treat you well..."

"Let's eat!"

"........."

Without further ado, the next day, Zhao Dongchuan reported to the factory and asked for a few days off to visit his relatives in the countryside!

Currently, work and life in the factory revolve around various sports, and there is no serious production.

Fortunately, Zhao Dongchuan was able to participate in the assessment as an exception and received a salary increase when the trouble just broke out, otherwise it would have been difficult for him to get by in the next few years.

After that, factories stopped recruiting, universities stopped enrolling students, and assessment and grading were impossible.

On this day, Zhao Dongchuan took Qin Jingru and took the bus to Qinjia Village with their bags.

After several maneuvers, they finally arrived at the bus stop near Qinjia Village and got off the bus.

At this time, it had just snowed in the countryside. The ground, trees, mountains and even the fields were all covered in white, which was very beautiful.

Zhao Dongchuan looked at the white world in front of him and felt dazed for a moment. Suddenly, he felt like he had come to the world of "The Day After Tomorrow".

The two walked on the snow, supporting each other, and headed towards Qinjia Village.

Soon the two entered the village.

"Oh, isn't this Jingru..."

"Yeah, you brought your man back again!"

"Is this boy from the city? He looks so handsome... so tender and delicate..."

"Look, they brought so many bags from the city... I wonder what's inside?"

"Ah... Jingru is so lucky. She married into the city and has no worries about food or drink... Look at the flowery dress she's wearing. The material is so beautiful, and it's stuffed full of cotton..."

"That's right... She looks more impressive than her sister Qin Huairu..."

There were originally few people at the entrance of the village, but somehow, as soon as they entered the village, there were suddenly more people, and no one knew where they came from!

"Hello, uncle~"

"Second uncle..."

"Auntie..."

When Qin Jingru saw some acquaintances, she couldn't help but greet them. In Qinjia Village, every household has the surname Qin, and they are all more or less related. It was not the first time that Zhao Dongchuan came here, so naturally she greeted them with a smile.

At the same time, they walked towards Qin Jingru's house without stopping.

"Oh, uncle, my little sister is back..."

Qin Jingguo, the eldest son of the Qin family, was walking towards them quickly, carrying a bamboo basket on his back.

"Big brother..."

Qin Jingru shouted with great joy.

Zhao Dongchuan led Qin Jingru and quickly stepped forward, greeting them with a smile.

"Brother Qin...how are you these days..."

"Hahaha, Xiao Zhao, you're here... Let's go home... Daddy is talking about you at home..."

After that, several people walked towards home together.

……

"Hey, why did you bring so many things here..."

Qin Jingru's mother, Mrs. Li, looked at the bags in Zhao Dongchuan's hands, feeling both happy and worried.

I am happy that the young couple are filial, but I am worried that they don't know how to live and will have a hard time in the future if they always spend money lavishly.

"Mom... maybe you don't know, Dongchuan is now a regular employee, not an apprentice... He earns a few dozen yuan a month..."

Qin Jingru looked proud and smiled as she held her mother's hand.

"Ah! Really?"

Li turned and looked at Zhao Dongchuan.

"Mom, yes... I took the test a few days ago and passed... Now I am a first-class fitter in the factory..."

"Hahaha...good, good!"

Old Man Qin took a deep puff of his pipe with a smile on his face.

Hearing from the villagers that their brother-in-law had returned with his younger sister, the Qin brothers who were working outside hurried home...

"Hey, little sister...brother-in-law, you are here..."

The second son of the Qin family, Qin Jingtai put down the bundles of firewood in his hands and said happily.

Not long after, Qin Jingmin also came back... and soon all five brothers returned home.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, having a great time.

Among the Qin brothers, except for the eldest brother who lived with their father after marriage, the other brothers all lived separately after marriage.

In the past, it was not so lively except during the Chinese New Year and other festivals.

After chatting for a while, Qin Jingru's mother and several sisters-in-law went to the kitchen to cook.

This time Zhao Dongchuan brought a lot of pork and flour, so he could use some to make a good meal...

Let the brothers and sisters-in-law also take some light...
