Three days later, worship the ancestors.

We set off at around five in the morning and didn’t come back until around two in the afternoon.

Xia Zhi returned to her yard, entered the house, and sat down on the chair, too tired to speak.

He Jinnan followed closely behind, "Go lie down on the bed. Why are you sitting here?"

Xia Zhi waved her hands feebly, "Let's go to bed after taking a shower."

She rested for a while before getting up and staggering towards the bathroom.

Just a moment after entering, He Jinnan knocked on the door outside, startling her and saying, "Don't come in!"

He Jinnan laughed, "You wash yours, I want to tell you that if grandpa is looking for me, I will come over."

"Do I have to wait for you to come back for dinner?" she asked through the door.

"I don't know. If you don't come back, I'll send you a message." After He Jinnan finished speaking, he left.

Xia Zhi took a comfortable bath, put on a set of home clothes, and went to her eldest sister's room.

Xuan Zai did not go to the ancestor worship ceremony because he was too young, so he stayed at home with his eldest sister.

At this time, Xia Zhi went over and saw the child sleeping. She didn't stay and went back to her house.

Lying in bed, she thought about her return trip tomorrow, and fell asleep after thinking about it.

Suddenly, there was a slight itching feeling on my lips, and something was gently rubbing back and forth on my lips.

She opened her eyes in confusion and saw He Jinnan's big face right in front of her.

"Sorry for waking you up." He looked apologetic, but there was a deep smile in his eyes.

Xia Zhi frowned lightly, pushed him away, and muttered: "It's so annoying!"

"Don't sleep, get up and eat." He stroked her hair, said softly, and kissed her cheek again.

Xia Zhi waved her hand impatiently, "I know."

After lying down for a few more minutes, she woke up completely. She slowly sat up and saw He Jinnan waiting aside, and asked casually: "What does grandpa want to see you for?"

"Grandpa has an old friend who is dying. He has to wait to see grandpa for the last time. Grandpa will take the evening flight back and tell me a few things to help him."

"Oh. Then when are we leaving?" She lowered her head to put on her slippers and asked again.

He Jinnan said: "They will go back tomorrow. I will help grandpa finish the work. It will take three or two days anyway."

The two of them talked and went to the living room together.

After a simple meal, not long after, someone came over to inform the old man that he was leaving.Xia Zhi followed He Jinnan to see her grandfather off again.

Also leaving with grandpa was my aunt. After the ancestor worship was over, she didn't waste a moment and returned to the imperial capital.

After seeing off the people, He Jinnan walked slowly back with Xia Zhi.

"Jinxing will go back tomorrow and take his second uncle's family of four with him. You can take your children and Ruirui back with you. Jinxing will take you back, so I feel relieved." He suddenly spoke softly.

"Yeah, okay." Xia Zhi agreed obediently.

She always has the feeling that the storm is coming, and it would be best not to stay.

"Where is He Jinhong? Isn't he leaving?" she asked again.

He Jinnan twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I don't know. Maybe I will go with you, maybe I will come back."

Xia Zhi raised her head and glanced at him, unable to hide her worry.

He Jinnan also looked down at her, reached out and pinched her cheek, "What's wrong? Are you worried about me?"

"No." Xia Zhi looked away and said duplicity, "Aren't you very powerful? You can always escape from death and save the day. I'm not worried about you!"

He Jinnan smiled nonchalantly, "Maybe nothing happened. If I go back safely, you promise me we can hold a wedding, okay?"

"I think you are just worrying too much. I don't think He Jinhong will attack you here." Xia Zhi replied.

Seeing her avoiding the question, He Jinnan didn't ask any more questions and stretched out his arms to hug her.

"What are you doing? Take it off." Xia Zhi shook her shoulders and said angrily.

He Jinnan said with a mean smile: "Daughter-in-law, we've already slept together, don't do this."

"What's wrong with sleeping with me? I haven't forgiven you even if I slept with you!" Xia Zhi puffed up her cheeks and said to him angrily.

He Jinnan acted coquettishly and hugged her hard, "Xiao Zhi, make up, okay?"

"No!" Xia Zhi used all her strength to push him away, and then ran forward.

He Jinnan ran to follow her, then hugged Xia Zhi from behind and went to tickle her.

Xia Zhi dodged left and right and couldn't help laughing.

The two of them were making a fuss, chasing each other, and soon disappeared around the corner.

Have a good night's sleep.The next day soon came.

After breakfast, He Jinnan looked after the children while Xia Zhi packed her luggage.

"I'll try to finish things as soon as possible and go back as soon as possible." He Jinnan said to her.

Xia Zhi folded her clothes, hummed and chuckled, but said nothing.

"I'll make a video call to you tonight."

Xia Zhi looked at him sideways, "What are you doing? Checking the post?"

"I believe you." He Jinnan smiled flatteringly, "I miss you and want to make a video call to you."

Xia Zhi zipped up her suitcase and stood aside, "But I won't necessarily miss you."

"Okay." He Jinnan was disappointed, "Can I make a video call to you and see my son? Is that okay?"

"Don't you have eldest sister's WeChat account? Don't you still have your family? Why do you have to call me?"

He Jinnan laughed angrily when he saw her deliberately confronting him, "Okay, just make me angry on purpose."

Xia Zhi glanced at him, pursed her lips, and shook her head proudly.

After everything was packed, Xia Zhi held the child and He Jinnan dragged the suitcase to the front yard.

Before getting in the car, Xia Zhi handed the child to her eldest sister, turned back to look at He Jinnan, and whispered: "If anything happens, protect yourself and don't let me worry."

He Jinnan bent down and hugged her, and whispered in her ear: "Okay, I understand, just wait for me to come back."

He kissed her on the cheek and said, "Remember to miss me."

Xia Zhi looked at him angrily and said nothing.

After getting in the car, she lowered the window again, looked at He Jinnan reluctantly, and waved to him.

He Jinnan smiled, raised his hand and waved to her, his eyes full of comfort.

In Xia Zhi's car, Ruirui was sitting in the passenger seat, and Xia Zhi and her eldest sister were holding their children in the back.The other two cars were for He Jinhong, He Jinxing, and He Jinyan; the other car was for the second uncle and second aunt and He Jiabi.

As the car drove away, He Jinnan stopped and watched until the car disappeared, then turned around and went back.

On the way to the airport, Xia Zhi felt uneasy and always had a bad feeling.

Seeing that her expression was wrong, the eldest sister asked with concern: "Xiao Zhi, what's wrong with you?"

"I want to go back." Xia Zhi blurted out.

He Jiarui looked back at her from the front, "Sister-in-law, do you want to go back?"

Xia Zhi then shook her head, "No, I'm just talking. He has something going on, and I will only cause trouble if I go back."

After she finished speaking, she turned to look out the car window. The sky outside became gloomy again. She prayed in her heart that he would be safe.
