Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 1038 - 1034: Return to the Hometown
After a detailed introduction, Tan Boyuan and his wife finally understood the purpose of Tao Guangsha and his wife’s visit.
Surprise and amazent intertwined on their faces, but deep down, there was still a trace of indescribable doubt and caution.
After all, how could such a windfall fall so easily on their heads?
Even though Tao Guangsha patiently explained the causes and consequences, and made the charity foundation’s support plan clear, the couple remained half-skeptical.
On the other hand, Xu Xiangyang had already fully believed, his little face full of uncontrollable excitent, his eyes sparkling as he looked at the Tao Guangsha couple, filled with hope for the future.
It wasn’t until Tao Guangsha took out a business card from his briefcase and handed it to Tan Boyuan with both hands, that Tan Boyuan glanced at the string of titles on the card and his eyes suddenly froze on the words "Chairman of Tao’s Catering," most of his doubts instantly dissipated, this matter seed to be real!
"You... are you Chairman Tao of Tao’s Catering?"
Tan Boyuan’s voice trembled.
Tao’s Catering is extrely famous throughout Qiong Province. He works in the electrical and plumbing business and often deals with various rchants, so he naturally heard of Tao’s Catering, and even once did renovation work for their stores.
"Yes, I am Tao Guangsha."
Tao Guangsha nodded gently, his tone still calm.
"Hello, Chairman Tao! Hello!"
Upon confirming the other party’s identity, Tan Boyuan’s attitude instantly beca warm, eagerly accepting the business card with both hands, carefully putting it into his pocket, his face full of restrained yet excited expression.
anwhile, Shen Siyuan had already brought Ruan Hongzhuang, Taozi, and Dou Dou back to their hotown in the countryside.
But just as they returned, they were welcod by a round of "scolding" from his mom, Huang Huijuan.
"You brat, just co back when you co back, but you have to pull that sudden appearance trick, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, almost scared into having a heart attack!"
Huang Huijuan stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him, "I thought the house was robbed!"
"Mom, you’re overthinking it."
Shen Siyuan smiled helplessly, "Our countryside here, roads are remote and houses old, where would any thief want to co?"
"Why not?"
Huang Huijuan imdiately retorted, "Before the New Year, soone ca to the village to steal chickens and ducks, causing panic among the people. Oh, right, the dog from Old Wang’s house in the west of the village was stolen a few days ago!"
"No way, at this age, people are still stealing those?" Shen Siyuan was surprised by her words.
He indeed heard of this growing up, but with the economy up nowadays, stealing chickens and dogs shouldn’t happen, but surprisingly, the tradition hasn’t been broken.
"Will thieves steal children?" Dou Dou, who had been listening quietly on the side, suddenly tilted her little head and asked curiously.
"Of course they will!" Huang Huijuan’s eyes turned, deliberately putting on a stern face to scare her.
"Naughty children will be quietly taken away by thieves and never see their parents again."
"Wow~" Dou Dou scread in fear, scrambling to hide behind Taozi, clinging tightly to Taozi’s leg, only daring to peek out with big eyes, timidly surveying the surroundings.
Seeing this, Huang Huijuan burst into laughter.
"Mom, at your age, still teasing children?" Shen Siyuan shook his head helplessly.
"Humph~" Huang Huijuan glanced sideways at him, full of disdain.
"I like it, what’s it to you?"
"Not my business, not my business."
Shen Siyuan quickly backed down, then instructed, "Give Dad a call, let him co back from the chicken farm early at noon, and prepare a few more dishes. I’ll go to Grandma’s first and bring her back for lunch later."
Shen Jianjun had gone to the family chicken farm early in the morning, so he asked his mom to help make the call.
"Got it."
Huang Huijuan responded, but couldn’t help but complain, "But you child, since you’re going to see your Grandma, just go directly, why must you co ho first, then go to Grandma’s, and finally co back together? Isn’t this pure nonsense?"
"I’m afraid suddenly appearing would scare her." Shen Siyuan explained.
"So you’re not afraid to scare ?"
Huang Huijuan imdiately glared, full of anger.
"Hehe..." Shen Siyuan chuckled dryly, didn’t respond further, then turned and walked towards the door, apparently acknowledging.
"You brat, ungrateful, raised you this big for nothing..."
Huang Huijuan cursed behind him, but her voice didn’t carry much real anger.
Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi stood aside, watching the familiar bickering scene between mother and son, holding back their laughter, their shoulders slightly trembling.
Seeing Shen Siyuan leave, the two quickly said goodbye to Huang Huijuan and hurriedly chased after him.
Huang Huijuan was just saying it, seeing them all leave, she dropped her stance and turned to prepare to call Shen Jianjun.
But as she bowed her head, she saw Dou Dou imitating her, hands on hips, pouting, glaring with round eyes, "glaring" at the door with the sa posture.
"You little one, what are you standing there doing?"
Huang Huijuan was amused by her, reached out to tap her forehead, "Aren’t you going with them?"
"Oh! Right, right!"
Dou Dou finally reacted, patted her little head, bolted towards the door, shouting as she ran, "Wait for ! You’ve left Dou Dou behind..."
The group, bustling and lively, heading like a festival procession.
They walked along the country road towards Grandma’s house, the rice fields by the roadside showed a tender green, the wind blowing through the rice spikes, rustling.
Tang Tang and Xiao Ya looked around curiously, marveling at roadside wildflowers, chasing flying butterflies, while Duoduo, worried they’d get lost, tightly followed them, occasionally pulling a little one back from a near fall.
Grandma’s house wasn’t far from Shen Siyuan’s, about ten minutes away.
From afar, they saw Grandma sitting in a bamboo chair at the courtyard gate, holding needle and thread, slowly nding sothing.
"Grandma!" Shen Siyuan shouted first.
Grandma looked up, seeing Shen Siyuan, her eyes instantly lit up, hurriedly put down her work, and stood up welcomingly: "Big Head? You’re back!"
Seeing the group behind him clearly, especially the few adorable little ones, she smiled widely, her wrinkles relaxing.
Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi stepped forward to support her, Grandma seeing them return together, smiled even more brightly.
"Great Grandma, I ca to see you!" Dou Dou was the first to leap forward to greet Grandma.
"Dou Dou, long ti no see, co, let Great Grandma hug you." Great Grandma smiled, bending to pick Dou Dou up.
"Great Grandma, I missed you, it’s not that I didn’t co, it’s Potato took far away, I couldn’t co back, bla him if you want..."
Shen Siyuan:...
