Du Ruo's loud laughter, coupled with the noise of a group of children crying and shouting, naturally attracted the parents outside. Duna was one of them. She didn't care much at first, and from the sound of their cries, she didn't seem to be injured. But when she saw a group of children covered in cow dung, she had a bad feeling in her heart. Until she saw the familiar figure in a red down jacket among the group of children, Duna felt her blood rushing up and her scalp exploded. "Huang!! Ya!! Mei!!!!" Duna stood on the steps and shouted out every word. “Pfft, pfft, pfft~ huh???” Yaya, who was still spitting out cow dung, heard a familiar voice and subconsciously turned her head. She saw that it was her mother who was letting her go, and she looked very angry. She subconsciously grinned. "Huang! Ya! Mei! Come back to me right now!! And Maomao, come back to me too." It would have been fine if she hadn't turned her head. When she turned her head and smiled, Duna suddenly saw that Yaya's body and face were covered with cow dung. However, she didn't know it was cow dung and thought the child was just playing in the mud. "Good~" Yaya didn't realize the seriousness of the situation, so she ran back, while the other children went home crying.
"You, why do you have to play in the mud when there are so many other things to play with? Come on, go wash yourself. And you have to wash yourself too, Maomao." When Duna saw Yaya jogging back, she thought that today was New Year's Eve and she shouldn't hit the child. She suppressed her anger, pulled Yaya, and walked into the house with a look of disgust on her face. The cow dung that had been left to dry for a few days no longer had a strong smell, so Duna didn't pay much attention to it. "Hey, we didn't play with mud. This is cow dung." When Yaya heard that her mother seemed not so angry anymore, she immediately grinned, revealing a row of neat teeth and an unknown brown object stained on her teeth. "!!! Ugh~" Upon hearing this, Duna's pupils dilated. Looking at Yaya's face and body covered with dark brown spots, she quickly loosened her hand and saw that there was undigested grass in the brown unknown object in her hand. Although she didn't smell anything, she still retched. Then, Duna stopped talking and lowered her head, looking around for something. "Grandma, help me, my mom is going to beat me~~" Yaya said she was very familiar with her mother's appearance. She immediately ran into the living room screaming, and did not forget to pull Maomao's dog ears before running. There was a commotion immediately afterwards, and then several distant relatives who came to complain came out of the house, and my father followed them to see them off. "Hehe~" And Du Ruo was laughing not far away. The cow dung just now couldn't explode on him. Besides, even if he didn't run away in time, his Tai Chi power was not practiced in vain. It can make waterproof his body, so naturally it can also prevent cow dung from getting close to him. "Why are you in such a good mood today? Why are you trying to make fun of them?" Xiang Yuanyuan also came out of the house at this time. She was cooking with her mother in the kitchen just now, but her mind was on Du Ruo. Through the kitchen window, she clearly saw Du Ruo's entire behavior just now. "It's nothing. At first I just wanted to give them a complete childhood memory. But I just found out that this really makes me happy. It seems like I haven't laughed so happily in a long time." Du Ruo still had a smile on his face. In fact, he knew that these children would not be beaten when they returned home, and even if they were beaten, it would probably be mostly symbolic. Children nowadays are completely different from when he was a child. When he was a child, he was really beaten, with thin bamboo sticks leaving marks. As for the children nowadays, Du Ruo in other places didn’t know, but the children in the village were all very precious, and with the protection of their grandparents, it was impossible for these children to be beaten too hard.
"You, really~~" Xiang Yuanyuan smiled and wanted to say something, but when she saw the bright smile on Du Ruo's face, she didn't know what to say. Perhaps it was just as the saying goes: A man remains a boy until he dies. Even someone with such extraordinary fighting power as Du Ruo will still maintain a young heart at certain times. "Come on, let's go inside. Those annoying guys are gone." Du Ruo laughed for a while, then took Xiang Yuanyuan's hand and walked into the house. "Finally it's quiet for a while. I don't know how these people can be so shameless. We haven't been in touch for so many years, but just now they said they wanted to send their children abroad and asked us to support them." When Dad saw Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan come in, he smoked a cigarette and talked to Du Ruo about what had just happened. It was rare for Dad to say so much on his own initiative, so Du Ruo just listened on the side. "That one from their family, he kept talking about how smart his child is and how he wants to study abroad. He really thought I didn't know. His grades were very poor, but he kept telling me that the environment in China is not good. Bah... what a joke." At this time, my mother came out after washing her hands, looking dissatisfied. Just now, a woman went to the kitchen to talk to her. "Okay, everyone has left. I told them that I have no money. We need to build a house and buy a car. My son is not doing any live streaming to sell goods. How can I lend him the money?" Dad doesn't like to talk about people behind their backs, so he interrupted Mom's continued complaints. It can be heard from her words that he has actually been paying attention to what's going on between Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan online, but he has never talked about these things with Du Ruo in person. "Dad, Mom, let's stop talking about this, let's get ready for dinner." At this time, my brother-in-law also advised that it was New Year's Day and he didn't want to be affected by outsiders. "Yuanyuan, go set the table and I'll set off the firecrackers." At this time, Du Ruo spoke up and said that the matter was over. His parents knew about these things and he didn't need to worry about them. The crackling sound of firecrackers dispelled the unhappiness that had just been brought about. The food was ready, and Du Na came out holding Ya Ya’s hand, who had changed her clothes. The reunion dinner began. "Yaya, what's wrong with you today? You're frowning even when eating fish." At the dinner table, Du Ruo, his father, and his brother-in-law were toasting each other. Only Xiang Yuanyuan noticed that Yaya was frowning while eating fish, and asked curiously, "Your mouth is bitter~~" Yaya frowned, looking unhappy, completely lacking the excitement she had when eating fish before. "Is the fish gall bladder broken? No, what did you eat just now?" When my mother heard Yaya say this, she immediately reached out her chopsticks to pick up a piece of fish and tasted it. After making sure that the fish gall was not broken, she asked Yaya. "It's probably because I just ate cow dung and didn't brush my teeth. The dung tastes bitter. It seems that the cow has some gallbladder inflammation." Everyone else was wondering about the reason, only Du Ruo answered calmly. "???" Everyone else looked at Yaya in shock. They knew that Yaya seemed to have been beaten just now, but they didn't expect that she was beaten because of eating cow dung. Only Xiang Yuanyuan looked at Du Ruo in shock. "Why are you looking at me? What are you thinking? Do you really think that all the time I've learned medical skills is in vain?" Du Ruo rolled his eyes at Xiang Yuanyuan. He naturally understood what Xiang Yuanyuan meant. He had learned a lot in his free time during this period. After all, high learning efficiency can make learning twice as effective with half the effort.
"Did you really eat it just now???" Duna moved her seat quietly, actually she had just rinsed her mouth. "I didn't eat it, I spit it out." Yaya spoke in a weak voice, and while she was talking she used a fork to pick up a piece of fish and put it into her mouth. "You're still eating!!! Spit it out and go brush your teeth!!!" When Duna saw Yaya still eating fish, she was shocked. She stood up and pulled Yaya to brush her teeth. "Mumble~" When Yaya heard that she was asked to spit it out, she didn't even bite it and swallowed the fish directly. "Eh~~" When others saw this look, they all looked disgusted. …… It was almost time for dinner, and Du Ruo looked at Xiang Yuanyuan standing beside him. "Dad, Mom, we didn't buy anything for the New Year. There's money in here. You can use it first. If it's not enough, tell us anytime." When Xiang Yuanyuan saw Du Ruo looking at her, she took out a bank card from her bag and handed it to her mother. There is one million yuan in it, which was specially prepared by Xiang Yuanyuan at Du Ruo's request. Last time, my mother gave Xiang Yuanyuan 200,000 yuan to build a house for Du Ruo. I guess that should be the last savings of my parents. "Ah? Why are you giving us money? You have a lot of expenses right now, and the two of us don't need much money. You can just use it." My mother didn't expect Xiang Yuanyuan to give her money, so she didn't reach out to take it, but instead glanced at my father beside her. "Mom, to be honest, we made a lot of money last year, which is enough for our expenses for the rest of our lives. And my sister also knows that she invested in a company last year, and the annual income is not low, so you can rest assured. This is the money for you to go out and travel." Du Ruo explained, which was like giving his family some reassurance, so that they could rest assured. Thanks to his popularity on the Internet, he doesn't have to explain too much about the source of the money. In the end, my sister Duna also helped to persuade my parents, and finally they accepted the bank card. The New Year’s Eve dinner was eaten at noon. After the meal, my sister Duna and her family drove away immediately. They had to rush back to my brother-in-law’s house to have the New Year’s Eve dinner. Only Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan were left to accompany their parents to celebrate the New Year. There are many activities in the village at night, but Du Ruo's family did not participate this year. It is better to keep a low profile this year. Forget about inviting the fire dragon or anything like that, they didn't even set off fireworks. Of course, there were many young people in the village who invited Du Ruo to play cards, but Du Ruo rejected them all. Du Ruo has never liked playing cards during the Chinese New Year, and it is even more so now. He cannot understand what kind of mentality these people have to bring the money they have worked hard to earn in a year to the card table. Now Du Ruo looked down on their money, but he also didn't want to waste the money he had worked so hard to earn. Although Du Ruo felt that if he went there, it would be like picking up money, but he was not so poor that he would go and earn such money. The New Year atmosphere in the countryside is still very strong, but my parents couldn't help but sigh: "If there is a child at home, it will be much more lively."
Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan just smiled when they heard it and didn't answer. The next day, Du Ruo took Xiang Yuanyuan around the village and paid New Year's greetings to the elders in the village. Normally, people do not go to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but nowadays people don't care about that anymore. Paying New Year's greetings is considered as completing a task. My sister Duna and her family don’t care about this. They just come over as a family for dinner on New Year’s Day. On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Du Ruo drove Xiang Yuanyuan to Xiang Yuanyuan's home in Fujian. (End of this chapter)
