Zhang Xiaoxiao and Zhao Guangcai were chatting when Zhao Guangcai suddenly asked, "Xiaoxiao, where did you go this afternoon?"
"I went to chat with the aunties," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied.
"Chatting?" Zhao Guangcai looked at Zhang Xiaoxiao in confusion.
"Yeah," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded.
"What did you all talk about?" Zhao Guangcai asked.
"Of course, we talked about the Li Family leaving," Zhang Xiaoxiao said.
"Weren't you afraid the Li Family would hear you talking about this?" Zhao Guangcai asked.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Zhang Xiaoxiao replied, puzzled.
"If the Li Family finds out that you were chatting like this, they might not be happy," Zhao Guangcai said.
"I don't care," Zhang Xiaoxiao shrugged.
"You, huh," Zhao Guangcai smiled helplessly.
"I'm just speaking the truth," Zhang Xiaoxiao said, blinking her eyes.
"I know," Zhao Guangcai smiled indulgently.
"Hehe," Zhang Xiaoxiao laughed happily.
At that moment, more and more people gathered in the Li Family's yard.
"Brother Li, Qiuhua, are you leaving now?"
"Brother Li, Qiuhua, don't forget us after you leave."
"Brother Li, Qiuhua, when you go to the capital, don't forget us fellow villagers."
"Brother Li, Qiuhua, take these things with you; eat them on the way."
The villagers surrounded the Li Family, chattering away.
"Thank you, everyone, thank you," Sun Qiuhua said with a smile.
"Qiuhua, take these; it's just a little token from us," one Aunt said.
"Yes, Qiuhua, these things aren't worth much; it's just our small gesture," another Aunt added.
"Qiuhua, please don't refuse," an Uncle said as well.
"I know everyone is very kind, but we really can't accept them," Sun Qiuhua declined.
"Qiuhua, we're all from the same village; our feelings are worth more than these things," one Aunt said.
"That's right, Qiuhua; these things aren't worth much; it's just our little gesture," another Aunt echoed.
"We appreciate your kindness, but we really can't accept these things," Sun Qiuhua firmly refused.
"Qiuhua, do you think it's too little?" one Aunt asked.
"No, no! You've misunderstood," Sun Qiuhua quickly waved her hands.
"Then why don't you accept it?" the Aunt asked.
"You should take these things back," Sun Qiuhua said.
"Qiuhua, do you look down on us?" the Aunt replied.
"No, I really didn't mean that," Sun Qiuhua hurriedly explained.
"Then why won't you accept it?" the Aunt pressed.
"I..." Sun Qiuhua was left speechless.
She couldn't just say she was afraid these people would cause trouble for them in the future, could she?
"Qiuhua, just accept it," Aunt Qian said.
"Yes, Qiuhua, these things aren't worth much; it's just a small token of our appreciation," Aunt Xinghua added.
"I..." Sun Qiuhua felt a bit troubled.
"Qiuhua, don't refuse anymore," Aunt Qian urged.
"Alright," Sun Qiuhua reluctantly agreed.
"That's more like it," Aunt Qian and Aunt Xinghua smiled upon hearing this.
"Dad, Mom, everything is packed," Li Xiumei came over and said.
"Mm," Sun Qiuhua nodded.
"Then let's go," Li Xiumei said.
"Okay," Sun Qiuhua replied.
Sun Qiuhua and the others walked out of the house and into the yard.
"This..." Li Xiumei was stunned as she looked at the villagers filling the yard.
"Xiu Mei, have you all packed up?" an Aunt asked.
"Mm," Li Xiumei nodded.
"Then hurry up and leave," the Aunt said.
"No rush, no rush," Li Xiumei waved her hand.
"How can there be no rush? If we don't leave soon, it'll be dark," the Aunt insisted.
"We still have luggage to pack," Li Xiumei found an excuse.
"Then hurry up; we'll wait for you outside," the Aunt said.
"Mm," Li Xiumei nodded again.
"Um..." Father Li suddenly spoke up.
"What is it?" the Aunt asked.
"We're only taking one car to the capital this time, so..." Father Li hesitated.
"So what?" the Aunt pressed further.
"So..." Father Li glanced at the people in the yard and said, "So with so many things, our car might not fit."
"Huh?" The villagers were taken aback upon hearing this.
"What should we do with these things?" an Aunt asked.
"Well..." Father Li also didn't know what to do.
"Although these things aren't worth much, they are a token of everyone's goodwill. We can't just take them back, can we?" an Uncle said.
"Um..." Father Li was at a loss for words.
"Qiuhua, look at this situation," Aunt Qian said somewhat awkwardly.
"It's okay, we will accept all these things," Sun Qiuhua said with a smile.
"Really?" Aunt Qian looked at Sun Qiuhua in surprise.
"Yes," Sun Qiuhua nodded.
"Qiuhua, you are so kind," Aunt Qian said, holding Sun Qiuhua's hand gratefully.
"We are all Fellow Villagers; it's only right to help each other," Sun Qiuhua said.
"Yes, yes, yes, Qiuhua is right," Aunt Qian quickly agreed.
"Qiuhua, let's make it clear that you will keep all these things," Aunt Xinghua said.
"Okay," Sun Qiuhua nodded.
"Qiuhua, you mustn't forget us," Aunt Qian urged.
"Don't worry, I won't forget," Sun Qiuhua said with a smile.
"Qiuhua, when you go to the capital this time, make sure to come back and visit us often," Aunt Xinghua said.
"Yes," Sun Qiuhua nodded.
"Qiuhua, take these things and eat on the way," Aunt Qian stuffed the items into Sun Qiuhua's arms.
"This..." Sun Qiuhua looked at the items in her arms, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Qiuhua, if you don't accept these things, it means you look down on us," Aunt Xinghua said.
"No, no," Sun Qiuhua quickly waved her hands.
"Then just accept them," Aunt Xinghua insisted.
"Alright," Sun Qiuhua reluctantly agreed.
