Early the next morning, Chen Yuanyuan asked Xiao He to set off to Tandao, an island surrounding Fuzhou.
After not returning to his hometown for many years, Chen Yuanyuan learned that Tandao, which was originally a county in Fu City, had become a special special economic zone.
Although it is far less prosperous than big cities, it is much more prosperous than Chen Yuanyuan's childhood impression.
While the economy is developing, Tandao still retains the style of a traditional fishing island. Chen Yuanyuan opened the window and blew in the oncoming sea breeze. The faint smell of sea water blew away the sadness of the past two days.
Xiao He followed the path in Chen Yuanyuan's memory and came to a rural village on the island.
Originally, He Yuehua and Zhang Linlin planned to accompany Chen Yuanyuan to get off the bus, but Chen Yuanyuan knew that the Chen family was not easy to get along with, so she decided to go first.
Chen Yuanyuan took the gifts prepared in advance and prepared to go to her uncle's house to see her grandma.
Chen Yuanyuan remembered that her grandma used to live in her uncle's house. Although she didn't have a good impression of her uncle's family, she still had to go there.
Looking at the brand new self-built houses in the village, Chen Yuanyuan didn't know which one was her uncle's home.
"Hello, aunt, which building is Chen Youdong's home?" Chen Yuanyuan walked to a farmhouse and asked the woman who was farming.
"Chen Youdong? You go this way. The fourth floor of the magnificent bungalow is at No. 36." The woman frowned when she heard Chen Youdong's name and pointed the way to Chen Yuanyuan.
"Thank you." Chen Yuanyuan noticed that the woman was a little disgusted with her uncle's house, but Chen Yuanyuan, who had not returned to her hometown for many years, didn't know what had happened in these years, so she followed the path to find her uncle's house.
The uncle's bungalow looks like a European-style villa, with exaggerated gold decorations and sculptures at the door. It is completely different from the various self-built houses in the surrounding area.
"Who is it?" As soon as Chen Yuanyuan rang the doorbell, a tackily dressed woman holding a designer handbag shouted behind him.
"Aunt, I am Yuanyuan." Chen Yuanyuan recognized this as Luo Hongyan, the aunt who wanted to adopt Chen Yuanyuan at her father's funeral.
Chen Yuanyuan also knew what she was thinking back then, but she still forced a smile after seeing her for a long time.
"Oh, you are such a rare visitor. I thought you were making a fortune in Xiangcheng and had forgotten about your aunt." Luo Hongyan couldn't help but laugh when she saw Chen Yuanyuan.
At that time, Luo Hongyan wanted to take advantage of Chen Yuanyuan's adoption to pocket Chen's father's family fortune, but her godmother Yu Meijun found out. Later, I shamelessly asked Chen Yuanyuan how many times he had borrowed money, but unfortunately he couldn't get it despite Yu Meijun's check, and he had long been resentful of Chen Yuanyuan.
"My eldest aunt tried so hard to adopt me, how dare I forget it." Chen Yuanyuan saw that the person who came was unkind, so there was no need to pretend, so she just taunted her back.
"You...!" Luo Hongyan didn't expect that the little girl who seemed so easy to handle at first would become sharp-tongued, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
"Hong Yan, who is here?" Chen Youdong just heard the doorbell.
"Oh, isn't she Chen Younan's precious only daughter?" Luo Hongyan gave birth to four children, and only got a boy with her fourth child, so she always looked down on Chen's mother for giving birth to only one child, Chen Yuanyuan, and not leaving any incense for the Chen family.
"Yuanyuan? Come on, come on, why didn't you call in advance when you come so far away and bring so many things!" Chen Youdong saw the gift packaging in Chen Yuanyuan's hand and it must be valuable. After inviting Chen Yuanyuan into the living room, Just about to reach out and take it.
"Uncle, where is grandma?" Chen Yuanyuan pretended not to notice and walked into the house to look for grandma.
"Uh... your grandma, your grandma went to the old house to find old friends, haha, she always likes to walk around." Chen Youdong said hesitantly.
"Then when will he come back?" Chen Yuanyuan saw the clues about Chen Youdong and felt that the matter was not simple.
"Uh...Chen Zhihe! Get down here!" Chen Youdong saw Chen Yuanyuan's sharp eyes and shouted upstairs with a guilty conscience.
