Chapter 740: Chapter 738: Living a Hard Life
And indeed, coming from the big city, both in the way they dress and speak, they are different from the locals here.
No wonder Su Wanyu seemed like such a delicate young lady when she first arrived here after being sent down, it turns out she really does come from a wealthy family.
In the past, they had wronged her, misunderstood her!
"This is our first time here, so it’s only right, only right," Big Uncle Su said politely.
Zhao Xiaojuan saw guests in the house and quickly brought in a few glasses of water for the Su family members.
Big Uncle Su and Aunt Su felt very guilty and heartbroken when they saw the old mud house the Lin family lived in, thinking about how Su Wanyu had spent over ten years here.
Although they saw that Wanyu was doing well now, the first few years must have been quite tough for her.
Even Su Wanting felt heartache for her sister, who had been pampered since childhood, when she thought about the hardships her sister endured in the village.
"Brother Su, it’s not easy for you to come all the way from Haicheng. Stay a few more days, take a stroll. Our Stone Bridge Village can’t compare to your city, but we have mountains and water too," Jiang Dashan urged with enthusiasm.
"No, big brother, we’ve already stayed for a few days. Seeing that Wanyu is doing well, we are relieved. I have to get back to work in Haicheng, we can’t stay longer," Big Uncle Su declined.
"That’s really a pity. Otherwise, we brothers could have gone fishing by the river," Jiang Dashan said regretfully upon hearing they were about to leave.
"Next time, big brother, we’ll come again and stay a little longer," Big Uncle Su said.
The men chatted in the living room, while the women prepared the meal in the kitchen.
Zhaodi, however, took the opportunity while nobody was watching to sneak a peek from behind the door, curious about these people from a life she had not heard of in her past life, now appearing in her own home.
But after watching for a long time, she realized that aside from being better dressed and a bit paler, and looking younger than her grandparents, they didn’t seem so special.
As Zhaodi sourly pondered this, she caught Jiang Mianmian looking straight at her through the window, her eyes undisguised with disgust and coldness.
Startled, Zhaodi quickly turned and ran back to the kitchen to work, daring not to eavesdrop anymore.
The kitchen was bustling, and in less than an hour, a lavish lunch was ready.
Jiang Dashan specifically took out the good wine Jiang Changhai had bought for him during the New Year for him to drink with Big Uncle Su.
After eating at the Jiang Family home, the Su family stayed a while longer before getting ready to leave.
"Brother Su, sister-in-law, don’t be in such a rush to go. It’s rare for you to come, stay a while longer," Zhang Guihua said earnestly.
"No, elder sister, after we go back we still have to buy the train tickets for tomorrow. Next time we have the chance, we’ll come see you again," Aunt Su explained.
"Alright, Changhai, when you go back later, ride slowly," Zhang Guihua instructed.
"Yeah, I know, Mom, don’t worry," Jiang Changhai said nonchalantly.
Back in the town, Jiang Changhai and Big Uncle Su first went to the train station to buy the train tickets for the next day.
Jiang Changhai then went to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative and bought lots of food for them to take on the train.
After dinner in the evening, Jiang Changhai and the others watched TV in the living room.
Su Wanyu came out with fruit and, not seeing her uncle, curiously looked around, finally finding him behind the haystack.
