Chapter 1129: Chapter 1130: Driving Back to My Hometown for the New Year Chapter 1129: Chapter 1130: Driving Back to My Hometown for the New Year He knew Menmen might not follow him when he left.

“Menmen.”

Zhang Menmen looked at him; she seemed significantly more worn out after not seeing him for a few days. But after such a big event, it was only natural for her to look haggard.

“Menmen, would you be willing to leave Kyoto and come with me?”

Leave Kyoto?

Zhang Menmen was taken aback for a moment.

“I know you don’t want to leave with me. I just came to tell you that I’m going to Magic City. I will make something of myself there, and I will wait for you to come to Magic City.”

Lu Hongxuan turned and walked away, his desolate figure lingering in Zhang Menmen’s sight until it disappeared. It was only then that she snapped back to reality, feeling a sense of loss as she returned home.

Meng Yunhan quickly became familiar with driving around Kyoto.

On weekends, she would take Little Huzi, a few kids, and Old Zhao out for fun.

Time passed by day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it was the new year.

The factories were on holiday.

Li Zihao went with Wang Sen and their two children back to his mother’s house for the new year.

For many years, Yun Hao hadn’t returned to his hometown for the new year, so on the 28th, he did not go to the military base.

He packed the car full of New Year’s gifts.

Meng Yunhan didn’t buy a sedan but an off-road vehicle.

Old Zhao hadn’t returned home for several years either.

“Hanhan, this time I go home for the New Year, I want to stay there for a while.” He knew his daughter was busy with work and his grandson had school, while he was idle on his own. After so many years, the house must have changed a lot–it was too old.

“That’s fine. When we’re there, we can renovate the house into a villa with a small second floor,” Yun Hao said as he drove, with Meng Yunhan sitting in the passenger seat. He had long wanted to tear down and rebuild the house but hadn’t mentioned it for fear of his father’s attachment to the old house.

“Rebuild?”

“Yes, Dad, when we build it into a two-story villa. Now we have a car, we can visit home several times a year. It’s the best place to escape the summer heat.”

The weather in Kyoto was really too hot.

“We’ll see when the time comes.”

Yun Hao drove steadily, and Meng Yunhan had indeed spent a good deal of money on a high-performance off-road vehicle.

Moreover, Yun Hao was familiar with this road; they were driving on a national highway.

When mealtime arrived, Yun Hao would drive to a nearby place to eat, and at night they would find an inn to rest.

It was not until the evening of the 29th that they arrived in the town.

The town had cars, but for one like Meng Yunhan’s, there were very few.

Especially when it stopped directly in front of a door weathered by the years.

The family got out of the car, opened the door, and prepared to turn on the light. Meng Yunhan illuminated the yard with a flashlight, revealing overgrown grass and spider webs everywhere.

What could they do?

Of course, the family started cleaning up.

The neighbors heard the noise and naturally came to see.

Meng Yunhan took out some food and began to distribute it.

People came to help.

Many hands make light work.

Before leaving, Meng Yunhan gave each of them a red envelope.

After a simple clean-up and bringing quilts from Kyoto, just two of them, Meng Yunhan worried they would be cold since there wasn’t much heating in the car.

The next morning, the family started to get busy again.

“Going back home for the new year?”

“Dad, why don’t you come back with us?”

Old Zhao waved his hand, “You go ahead. I haven’t seen my old friends for so many years; I want to have a good catch-up.”

Yun Hao, carrying a piece of meat and a fish, left with Little Huzi and Meng Yunhan.

Once they returned to Qingzhao Village.

The villagers saw the trio–Meng Yunhan and Yun Hao looked no different from five years ago, but Little Huzi had grown a lot, now almost as tall as Meng Yunhan.
