Chapter 222 The Original South Vietnam
Nan Yue stayed in the hotel for one night. After waking up early in the morning to practice, he went to buy a new suitcase, put all the things he bought yesterday into it, and called a taxi to go to the countryside.
Because she was very generous, she didn't even intend to counter-offer the price offered, so she agreed immediately.
So, along the way, the taxi driver was very enthusiastic and chatted with her about the changes in L City over the past year.
Nan Yue listened absent-mindedly, and answered a few words from time to time, looking out the window, completely immersed in a memory.
When I arrived at the destination, I hadn’t had time to escape from the memory for a while, and when I saw the familiar red brick and blue tile house, I had a feeling that at this moment she was the original Nanyue.
And in fact, in the future, it is indeed the case.
Nan Yue got out of the car, thanked the driver who helped to move the two boxes down, basking in the sunshine with the right temperature, he was still in a daze for a while.
When the taxi left this quiet small town, some aunts and elder sisters who were gossiping outside their homes looked at her curiously.
Nan Yue just pulled two boxes and stepped into the very familiar courtyard gate.
The two-story brick and tile house surrounds a small yard, a small drying yard, and a well with a grape trellis above the well.
There are two bungalows on the side, one is the kitchen and the other is the bathroom, both of which are newly built.
This is an old house from a long time ago. I just came all the way, and I can see that most of them are built buildings, like small villas, each with a different style.
The yard and the house were very quiet, as if no one was there, but the door was indeed wide open.
Nan Yue stood in the middle of the yard, hesitating for a while, wondering if he should go in without authorization.
Although this is the house that Yuanshen has always lived in, every winter and summer vacation, he sleeps in the small room facing the sun on the right hand side of the entrance.
"Who is it?" With the sound of the door, a person came out of the room on the left, putting on reading glasses in his hands, and then helped the door frame to cross the threshold, squinting at her.
Afterwards, I became a little excited: "Yue Yue is back, come in quickly, grandma will pour you tea! I just boiled white water eggs today, and added some sugar water, it's delicious!"
Seeing the little old lady walking over in small steps, she grabbed her and led her into the house without any explanation.
Nan Yue's heart was a little soft, and he held back the rough and wrinkled hand of the old lady.
The old lady poured hot tea for her again, and brought out the candy box for the New Year's greeting guests, grabbing candies and biscuits for her to eat.
Then he was busy going to the kitchen, scooping up boiled white water eggs and heating hot sugar water.
After serving it to Nan Yue, he was stunned to watch her finish eating before giving up.
The two suitcases of Nanyue were forgotten in the yard, standing alone.
When a middle-aged woman came outside the door, called Nan Yue, and came in with a beaming face, the old lady stopped trying to persuade Nan Yue to eat candy.
"Hey, why did you come back with two big suitcases of luggage? You must be exhausted from the journey. Come, try the oranges that my aunt just bought today. They are so sweet!"
The person who came was Nanyue's aunt, He Hongxia, from the neighboring village. She was very bright and outgoing, and she would become very aggressive when provoked.
She brought a basket of oranges, weighing several catties.
After putting it on the table, he went to help Nan Yue bring the luggage in and put it in the room on the right.
As soon as he came out, he said to Nanyue: "Yueyue, come to the house with grandma to have a New Year's Eve dinner later. Your uncle bought beef and mutton, and a big fish. It happens that the family is having a lively hot pot."
"Okay, thank you, auntie." Nan Yue didn't refuse, she was definitely going to come over to give some gift boxes and food for the children.
Seeing her answer, He Hongxia smiled brightly: "You're welcome, come early in the afternoon, dinner is at five!"
