Nan Chenliang suddenly realized that all three of them were about to leave, and he was really overwhelmed with emotion. Fortunately, Nan Jinming had told this matter to Nan's father yesterday. Nan's father had seen many farewells, so when they came out of the Nan's yard, Nan's father gave Nan Jinming the newly made shoes.

These shoes were originally made for her. They were supposed to be embroidered, but now time is tight, so I can only give Nan Jinming a pair of plain shoes.

A mother worries about her son even when he is far away. Although Nan Jinming has no parents, he was raised by his father Nan.

Nan Jinming walked a long way and disappeared from their sight. Nan Chenliang turned around and wiped the tears from his eyes. He had clearly promised his father last night not to cry, but he still couldn't help crying. However, he didn't know when his cousin would come back.

Yesterday

"Chenliang, let me tell you something."

My father didn't know how to talk to him and he thought about it for a long time?

Nan Jinming came to see me in the morning, and then went back. He came when Chen Liang was going to work.

Nan Chenliang went to help Aunt Xu dry the millet. Because the autumn rainy season was approaching, the grain had to be dried quickly.

Aunt Xu has been very busy lately, but things at her family... because of the things between Grandma Xu and their sisters, she is unhappy.

But every family has its own problems, and it’s hard for you as an outsider to say anything.

After Nan Jinming washed the dishes used for dinner and put them in the cupboard, he was walking in the yard and passed by Nan's father's room, who stopped him.

Nan Chenliang was confused because his father hadn't spoken to him so seriously in a long time. Could something have happened?

So he came to Nan's father's room. Nan's father held his hand and began to say earnestly: "Chenliang, I know you like Jin Ming very much, but Jin Ming is not an ordinary person after all. She stayed in the village to provide you with dry food and observe mourning for three years. But why didn't she leave later? This was also her own decision."

"But she won't be trapped in such a small village forever. She is an ambitious person, and you should have seen that in the past few years."

Nan Chenliang was still a little confused by what his father said, because his father looked very serious when he spoke to him. In the past, he always smiled gently and kindly, and would never scold him even if he did something wrong.

Nan Chenliang still wanted to find out what his father meant.

"Is my cousin leaving Laifu Village?"

When Nan Chenliang asked this question, he thought a lot. Perhaps only this reason could make his father so anxious.

"But didn't you say that you would come to ask for marriage next year when you hold your coming-of-age ceremony?"

"I have already talked to you and mother, and you agreed. But now, why are you trying to persuade me to let go? You know I have liked my cousin for a long time. She and I have no blood relationship at all. We are only related because of my godmother. That's why I call her cousin. Everyone in the village knows it."

"But Daddy, you know it's not easy to let go of someone you like."

Father Nan was also helpless and pulled his hand, using some force to squeeze his fingers which were a little cold from washing dishes.

Father Nan sighed.

"But liking someone can't stop him from going to a better place, to a better future. If you want to stand by her side, you have to pay more."

"Now that you're telling me this, I still can't accept my cousin. When will she leave?"

Father Nan watched the changes in Nan Chenliang's expression and knew that he couldn't accept it for a while, but time is the best medicine to heal the pain.

"I'll leave tomorrow."

Nan Chenliang looked down at his father holding his hand, and then said, "I won't see her off."
