Mo Zhu stood rooted to the ground and pondered for a bit. After a while, she kept the information and stood up to push open the door.

Standing at the door and looking at the decorations in the room carefully, Mo Zhu sighed lightly. As if sensing the girl’s frustration, Huo Xuan took two steps forward and patted her shoulder gently. “Qingyuan Village is so close. I can send you back anytime if you want.”

When Mo Zhu heard this, she nodded slightly and looked back at Huo Xuan. “Thank you.”

After saying this, the few of them did not stay any longer and immediately followed Mo Zhu out of the house.

Mo Zhu skillfully locked the door of the house. Unexpectedly, just as they reached the door, they saw a group of villagers surrounding the street outside the door.

When Xu Huan saw this, he scratched his head in confusion. He turned to look at Mo Zhu and asked curiously, “Little Bamboo, what’s going on?”

Just as Xu Huan finished speaking, a middle-aged woman who was holding a basket of vegetables not far away walked quickly to Mo Zhu’s side and grabbed the girl’s hand. She said excitedly, “Xiao Zhu, you’ve finally returned to the village. We’ve all heard about Grandma Zhang. My condolences to you. Although Grandma Zhang has left, we’re still here. If you miss home in the future, feel free to come back. You can come to Auntie’s house. I’ll make chicken soup for you!”

When Mo Zhu heard this, her nose turned slightly sour. She shook the woman’s hand back and said softly, “Auntie Chen, after my grandmother and I left the village, did everyone lead a good life?”

As if she had thought of something, the woman lowered her head and quietly wiped her tears. She looked up and revealed a sincere smile. “It’s very good. We’ve been well, it is just that I’m worried about you and your grandmother sometimes. I’m worried that the two of you will feel uncomfortable in the big city and get bullied by others…”

Mo Zhu curled her lips and smiled lightly. She understood that Auntie Chen was really worried about her. She patted the woman’s hand comfortingly and said, “Auntie, can you not trust my abilities? It has always been Xiao Zhu who bullies others. Who can bully me!”

Hearing that, the woman was relieved. She nodded, took the girl’s hand and rubbed it nervously. “Xiao Zhu, it’s not easy to return to Qingyuan Village. Come and stay for two days with me. There are chickens and fish at home. Your uncle can kill them for me to cook some dishes to nourish your body.”

When Mo Zhu heard this, she frowned without batting an eyelid and replied, “No, no. I have a lot of things to attend to. I’ll visit you guys next time.”

After saying this, Mo Zhu turned to leave. Seeing this, the white-haired old man who was standing behind the woman just now suddenly took a step forward and said anxiously, “Xiao Zhu, why don’t you stay for a meal? We haven’t seen you for a long time. It’s a good opportunity to talk.”

Mo Zhu shook her head lightly and rejected him. “Maybe next time. There’s really something urgent waiting for me to deal with.”

The white-haired old man was the village chief of Qingyuan Village. Ever since Zhang Fen brought Mo Zhu to the village, he had been taking a lot of care of this grandmother and granddaughter pair, who had no one to rely on. He even asked the villagers to send eggs and vegetables to them from time to time. It could be said that he had watched Mo Zhu grow up.

In the past two days, the young man who had gone to Cloud City to work called back and said that Zhang Fen had passed away. Everyone in the village was worried about Mo Zhu. Although they did not say it, everyone secretly took a glance at Zhang Fen’s door whenever they walked past to work in the fields or return home, to see if Mo Zhu and Zhang Fen had returned home.

Now that Mo Zhu had finally returned to the village, everyone sincerely wanted to take good care of this lonely child.

Seeing that Mo Zhu was determined to leave, the village chief took two steps forward and tugged at her coat. He leaned close to the girl and instructed softly, “Xiao Zhu, many outsiders with unknown identities have come to the village these two days.. I don’t think they look like good people. You have to be careful!”
