The hometown of Mu Xi's parents was a fourth-tier small city that was suitable for living, although the economy was not developed.
The population was not large, only about three million people. It was also very far from Shanghai. It was located in the southwest of Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province. It was called Mei City.
This was the hometown of the great writer Su Dongpo.
As Mei City didn't have an airport, Mu Xi brought Sun Yiyi from Shanghai to Chengdu's Shuangliu International Airport. They then took the high-speed rail to Mei City's East Station.
Along the way, Sun Yiyi seemed especially nervous. Muxi had no choice but to comfort this girl who was about to meet her parents. Only then did she calm down when they reached their destination.
But even so, Sun Yiyi still stubbornly insisted that she had to buy some gifts before she could accompany Mu Xi.
Helpless, Mu Xi could only accompany Sun Yiyi to buy some fruits and New Year gifts.
Mei City was not a large city. The central Urban area could be crossed on foot in less than half a day.
Very quickly, Mu Xi brought Sun Yiyi to buy the gifts. Then, the two of them took a taxi and followed the memories Mu Xi inherited to the neighborhood where her parents lived.
Mu Xi's mother was a full-time housewife, while her father worked at the Agricultural Commercial Bank (formerly the rural credit cooperative). Not only her father, but in Mu Xi's memory, her father's younger brother was also her uncle, and her grandfather. The three of them worked at the Agricultural Commercial Bank.
His retired grandfather was even a member of the old (mythical beast) party. His style was very upright. He had never bent the law for personal gain in his life. He had never violated any discipline. Because he was too upright, he even gave up the opportunity to become the head of the local Union of Credits and gave it to a colleague who he thought was more capable.
The people of that era had very strong beliefs.
(This is the real situation in the author's family. The author's grandfather was so upright that he took the initiative to give up his position. It was already decided internally that it would be his grandfather…)
Other than his parents, Muxi also had a younger sister who was in high school.
His sister's academic performance was as good as Muxi's back then. Not only did she study in one of the two best middle schools in Mei City, but her grades were also among the best. If there were no accidents, it would be safe for her to get 985 or 211.
"Is this your husband's home?”
Standing in front of the gate, Sun Yiyi looked around curiously.
"It's so beautiful."
The green environment of the neighborhood was very good. This was a new neighborhood that had been built in the past four to five years. His father had also bought a new house here after the neighborhood was built. As for the old house that he had lived in for more than ten years, it was currently being rented out.
"Alright, let's go in. I heard from Mom that lunch is ready.”
"Yes, yes."
Sun Yiyi nodded and followed Mu Xi into the neighborhood.
After passing through the quiet tree-lined road, they came to a unit building. The community was not an elevator apartment. Each unit building had a maximum of six floors, and the height between the floors was sufficient. The minimum area of each unit was 90 square meters. It was rare to see a newly built community in a big city, but it was common in a small city with a small population.
At least it was the case in Mei City.
Mu Xi gently knocked on the door when they reached the fourth floor.
Not long after, the door was opened from the inside.
The person who opened the door was a beautiful middle-aged woman. She was dressed beautifully and fashionably. She was Mu Xi's mother.
Since she had not worked since she married her father, her mother had taken good care of herself.
"Ya! It's our son!"
When she saw Mu Xi and Sun Yiyi at the door, her mother's face immediately revealed a brilliant smile.
"His father! Their son and daughter-in-law are back!!!”
Looking at the beautiful middle-aged woman who was enthusiastically inviting them in, Sun Yiyi turned to look at Cleansing Rain in a daze."
"That…Honey…This is…Auntie? Not big sister?"
In Sun Yiyi's understanding, the mothers of people of her and Mu Xi's age should appear even older. However, the youthfulness displayed by Mu Xi's mother made Sun Yiyi feel incredulous.
"Hahaha, what a talkative child. Come, come, come in.”
Upon hearing Sun Yiyi's words, her mother was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. She affectionately pulled Sun Yiyi's hand and walked in.
"Are Brother and Sister-in-law back?”
At this moment, an energetic girl rushed out of a bedroom.
When she saw Mu Xi and Sun Yiyi at the door, the young lady's eyes sparkled. She ignored Mu Xi and pounced on Sun Yiyi.
"Wow! It really was Sister-in-law! My stupid brother finally learned how to bring girls home!？”
“欸……!？”
The fiery passion from Little Sister Mu Xi made Sun Yiyi stand rooted to the ground, at a loss for what to do. In the end, she could only turn her head to Mu Xi for help. The meaning in her eyes was clearly-
Hubby, save me!
