"Put me down now!" Jennifer wrapped her arms around his neck, afraid that he would throw her off, "Be careful! Why are you so naughty?"
Edward was so excited that he spun around in a dozen circles before he put her down!
"How many days are you staying this time?"
"Not just a day or two, anyway. Hurry up and help me carry these into the house!"
"Okay!"
The trunk of the car was stuffed with gift boxes and suitcases. Edward asked while helping, "What's the deal? Are you really moving back here? Were you kicked out by that jerk?"
She suddenly turned to stared at him, a gaze so sharp that hushed him instantly.
The two carried the things back into the house and Jennifer explained, "This is my house in the first place, and please don't call him a jerk anymore. He's Alfie and Diana's father and needs to project a good image."
"Got it, Master."
"How is David?" Jennifer prepared some fruits, "He hasn't been working in the field lately, has he?"
"No, I went to visit him three times a day and he has almost recovered. I helped him remove the stitches yesterday."
"That's good." Jennifer handed him the bag, "Take this. Let's go see David together!"
When they arrived at David's house, his wife saw them from afar and greeted them with enthusiasm and excitement. Her words were full of gratitude.
Some nearby villagers also heard the news, both surprised and delighted at the village chief returning to the village.
The most frequently asked questions were:
"Miss, are you still going out?"
"I heard that you brought your luggage back this time. Are you planning to stay for a while?"
"Chief, we're so happy to have you back!"
Jennifer nodded with certainty, "Yes! I promised to teach the children to draw, and the course still has ten sessions left. The class will continue this afternoon. Also, we need to get ready for the village's planting business. What do you want to plant next year?"
Once the topic was started, everyone joined the discussion and could not stop.
The villagers especially trusted Jennifer, so they told her what was on their minds without reservation.
