Aunt Chen heard the news of Wei Mingyan's return to the village from the villagers and went home happily to share it with her husband.

"Husband, should we also go and see? I heard that Mingyan boy bought a lot of good things for Old Three's home, are not seen in our village, we also go to learn. "

(TLNote: reminder: people in the village calls uncle Yi as 'Third Son'/'Third Uncle'/ 'Old three' etc etc. because he is the third son of his family.)

Old Chen Tou is polishing the wood in his hand when he hears his wife's words. His hands kept moving. "What are you going to do? A man takes his wife back to her maternal house is normal. Won't we just make things worse?"

Looking at his wife that was disappointed by his words, Old Chen Tou felt a little uncomfortable.

Actually, it's not that he didn't want to go to see the child who was raised by him. But the last time they took advantage of being that child's elders; while the people in the village had nothing to do, they gossiped and kicked up a fuss every day. If they see them go over there, won't they both look like they are clamoring for Mingyan to buy them presents?

As soon as Old Chen Tou thought of the women who chattered together every day, he felt a headache and simply stayed at home.

Maybe tomorrow, when his wife goes out for a walk. She can always find out from all kinds of people how well Mingyan is doing.

Aunt Chen took clothes from her room to wash by the river. With a look of disdain, passing by Old Chen Tou, she said, "I don't understand you. You could see that Mingyan is successful now and you don't want to get along with him. What's wrong with you? "

"I don't know."

The old married couple still didn't understand each other. Suddenly there was a knock at the door outside. Aunt Chen rolled her eyes at her husband, put down the washtub and went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, she smiled. "Mingyan, Lan Lan, why are you two here?"

Old Chen Tou was ready to put down the wood in his hand to see who was coming. He heard that it was Wei Mingyan. He was stunned. He quickly put down his work and stood up with his crutches.

"Auntie, can't I come to see you and Uncle?"

Wei Mingyan came in with a smile on his face, holding the girl's hand. When he saw Chen Tou limping towards them, he came forward to support him.

"Uncle, I am a junior. how could I let you come out to greet me? "

"Forget about that, our village doesn't care about those things." Although he told them that he didn't care, the smile on Old Chen Tou's face could not be restrained when he saw the two coming over.

"Why are you here?"

"I haven't been back for a long time. I have brought some gifts for you and aunt."

Wei Mingyan took out the bag he had been carrying and handed it to him. "This is the walking stick I bought. It's very awesome, with a dragon head carved on it."

"Why are you still bringing gifts?" Old Chen Tou was surprised at first, and then received it with great joy. When he opened the box, he hesitated to look at the beautiful walking stick.

"Mingyan, this walking stick's workmanship looks so outstanding, isn't it expensive?"

"Ah, it's nothing. You're the elder of Lan Lan and me."

"Look at the clothes I bought for Aunt. They would really look good on her."

Old Aunt Chen didn't expect to get her own gift. Looking at how even the gift bag was beautiful, she couldn't keep her mouth closed because of laughter.
