Given that it’s already the end of the year and the twelfth lunar month, Qi Taiguo taking leave at this time is awkward, and this time, after taking leave for the New Year, he probably won’t be able to go back. If Qi Taiguo doesn’t go back for the New Year, then I have to consider whether to return for the New Year myself. So, Cheng Su decided to simply take the New Year’s gifts and go back.
In a rush, Cheng Su got up early in the morning to go to the city and bought a big pile of New Year’s gifts, hurried home to pack, and made phone calls everywhere to arrange matters. When Qi Taiguo returned, the two hurriedly went to the bus station to catch the bus.
Now in the middle of winter, with short days and long nights, by the time they returned to Huangtian Village, it was already completely dark.
Qi Taiguo took all the things, not forgetting to hold Cheng Su’s hand, and said, "Be careful, there’s snow and ice on the ground; it’s very slippery."
Cheng Su looked and indeed saw a thin layer of ice, with the surroundings covered in a blanket of white snow.
"So cold." Cheng Su’s teeth chattered, and she hissed, blowing hot air into her hands.
The hometown is colder than Qing City; sitting in the car didn’t feel it, but as soon as they got off, the chill came from all directions, making them shiver uncontrollably.
"It might snow soon," Qi Taiguo looked at the sky, pulling her along, "Let’s hurry!"
"You’re holding so many things, no need to pull me; go ahead, I’ll follow behind!" Cheng Su said.
"Then be careful!"
They chatted as they walked forward, and it wasn’t long before it started snowing indeed. Passing by some households with dogs, the dogs barked as they walked past.
At the Qi family home, a sense of desolation loomed.
"...Oh, Dad, Big Brother is back!" Qi Fengping jumped up.
Father Qi listened intently and indeed heard Qi Taiguo calling at the door; he quickly stood up, and Mother Qi, with quick steps, had already gone out to open the courtyard door.
With a creak, the door bolt opened, and seeing her eldest son, Mother Qi was overjoyed.
"Mom, we’re back!" Qi Taiguo shouted.
