"They're coming," everyone said excitedly when they finally saw Old Master Gong sitting in the car. "We can light the firecrackers now."
Then, crackling sounds suddenly sounded at the intersection, stirring up the intense and exciting atmosphere.
The surrounding tourists were very curious when they heard the sudden firecrackers. Most of them stopped to watch and asked in puzzlement, "What kind of activity is going on here? It's so lively."
"I don't know. But I've never heard of any project activity being added."
"It seems like they're welcoming a certain person."
"It seems like it. Could it be that a big shot? Look at that beautiful woman carrying a child. I heard that she's the big boss of the Peach Blossom Village!"
"Even the boss has come out to welcome them. It must be a big shot then."
"Haha, then let's go meet a big shot."
Gong Zhen was indeed a big shot, but no one present knew much about him.
...
The Xiao Family didn't announce their plan to welcome Old Master Gong to the public. They didn't hide it either.
When someone asked, mother Xiao and grandmother Xiao directly said they were going to welcome their in-laws.
Wasn't their in-law Old Master Gong?
Old Master Gong was Taoyuan Village's benefactor.
Two years ago, because of young master Gong's car accident, Old Master Gong had left in a hurry. The villagers knew nothing beyond that.
When they heard that Old Master Gong was returning, other than being a little surprised at first, everyone quickly became excited and happy.
"Elder Gong is back. Let's go and welcome him together!"
After all, Elder Gong was a great benefactor to the villagers. The Gong family repaired the roads, and Xiao Lingyu was now the daughter-in-law of the Gong Family. The villagers had witnessed how wealthy the Gong family was. The wedding scene between Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu was really shocking. Helicopters were flying above, scattering fresh flowers. There were many scenes that they had never seen before.
The villagers had a good life. They were even more unwilling to offend the wealthy Gong family.
Hence, apart from the Xiao family, there were also the villagers of Taoyuan Village who came to welcome Old Master Gong.
There were almost 200 households in peach blossom village. The welcoming party had reached over 1000 people. There were also many young people who had returned to the village. Most of the villagers had come to welcome Old Master Gong. Some didn't come because they really couldn't step away from their work.
Those tourists were really too curious.
Who was this person that could make the entire village come over to welcome him?
"Qiuying, is Master Gong really back?"
"Yes, that's right!" Mother Xiao replied with a smile." Then did Young Master Gong come back with him?" Although Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao were married, the villagers were still used to calling him Young Master Gong.
Mother Xiao shook her head and said, "Tianhao is still recovering from his injuries." Mother Xiao couldn't tell anyone that Gong Tianhao had lost his memory and had forgotten about Xiao Lingyu and her son.
"Oh, I see." The villagers knew that Gong Tianhao was severely injured in the car accident. As for how he was severely injured and where he was treated, the villagers weren't too sure.
"In any case, it's great that Young Master Gong is fine now."
"Yes, Tianhao is awake now. As long as he recuperates for a period of time, his body will recover," Mother Xiao said with a smile.
"There's only up from now. Young Master Gong will definitely have good fortune after surviving a great disaster."
...
"He's coming, he's coming, the elder is coming."
The black car approached. Those with sharp eyes could see the people in the car.
"Grandpa, the villagers of Taoyuan Village are here too." Xiao Wang saw the villagers standing on both sides, obviously welcoming them. His heart was filled with unspeakable gratitude.
"The villagers are really too enthusiastic," Xiao Zhang said.
Grandpa Gong looked at the scene outside and immediately warned, "Xiao Lv, drive slowly in case any child suddenly runs into the middle of the road."
"Alright, Old Master!" Xiao Lv replied respectfully.
Soon, the car arrived at the village entrance and stopped.
The sound of firecrackers crackled outside.
Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang got out of the car and then stood on both sides respectfully to help Old master out.
"Old Master, we're here!"
Old Master Gong was sitting in the car with a walking stick in his hand. He looked very calm, but the hand holding the walking stick was clearly nervous and anxious.
At this moment, other than the sound of firecrackers that had just been extinguished, there was also the lingering smoke after the firecrackers. It was very quiet. Even the surrounding tourists seemed to be affected by this joyous and dense atmosphere. Everyone silently looked at the black car parked in the middle. People were curious, but they made sure to keep their questions to a whisper.
The Xiao family members stood two to three meters away from the car and looked at it with excitement. There were even some people whose eyes were sparkling with tears.
"Old Master!" Xiao Wang called out softly.
Old master Gong got out of the car with Xiao Wang's help.
The moment Old Master Gong got out of the car, he looked around and then fixed his gaze on the Xiao family members. Most importantly, he fixed his gaze on the child in Xiao Lingyu's hands.
The Xiao family walked over after elder Gong got out of the car.
Xiao Lingyu carried the child to Elder Gong and called out, "Grandfather!"
"Aye!" Old Master Gong nodded happily before turning his gaze to the child in Xiao Lingyu's arms.
Xiao Lingyu instructed his son, "Baby, greet your great-grandfather."
Xiao Letong looked at Old Master Gong with his big round eyes, but he revealed a puzzled and confused expression. He then called out happily, "Great-grandfather, give me a hug!"
After saying this, he opened his arms and asked Old Master Gong to hug him.
Grandfather Gong immediately responded excitedly and happily, "Aye, Tong Tong is really obedient. Come, let grandfather hug him!" After saying this, he released his walking stick and opened his arms, wanting to bring the child into his embrace.
Xiao Lingyu said, "Grandfather, Tong Tong is very heavy, you..." you should be careful.
Old Master Gong shook his head and said, "My body is still healthy, and I still have some strength. I can carry Tong Tong."
This was a descendant of the gong family and his great-grandson. However, as his great-grandfather, he had only hugged the child once after he was born and had never hugged him again. For the past two years, he had been thinking of hugging this child all the time.
Xiao Lingyu handed the child to grandfather gong and instructed the child, "Tong Tong, you have to be obedient and not move around carelessly. Great-grandfather is old and can't endure your struggles!"
Xiao Letong nodded obediently and said, "Yes. Great-grandfather, I'm very obedient and will definitely not move around carelessly."
"Haha, good!" Grandfather Gong laughed happily and said, "I know that Tong Tong is very obedient. Come, let great-grandfather hug you."
After saying this, Old Master Gong reached out and took Xiao Lingyu from Xiao Lingyu's hands. Looking at Xiao Tong's cute and fair little face, which was almost exactly the same as Gong Tianhao's when he was young, Old Master Gong was overjoyed.
Old Master Gong gently pinched Xiao Letong's little face and said with a smile, "Tong Tong, how old are you this year?"
Xiao Letong said with a smile, "Great-grandfather, I'm two years and three months old today."
"Oh, you're very clever," Old Master Gong said with a smile. "Does Xiao Tong listen to his seniors?"
Xiao Letong tilted his little head and looked at Old Master Gong seriously as he said, "Great-grandfather, you've already said that I'm the most obedient, so of course, I listen to my seniors."
"Haha..."
Old Master Gong hugged Xiao Tong for a moment before he felt that his arm was a little tired. However, he couldn't bear to let go of Xiao Tong.
Xiao Lingyu noticed grandfather Gong's discomfort, so she took Xiao Tong over and said, "Grandfather, you must be tired. Let me carry the child. There's plenty of time in the future. In the future, you and Xiao Tong will spend more and more time together."
"Hehe, Yu 'Er is right!" Old Master Gong immediately let go. "Come, Tong Tong, let your Mommy carry you."
Xiao Letong shook his head and said, "Great-grandfather, I'm already grown up. I don't need an adult to carry me. I can walk on my own."
Old Master Gong looked at the crowd and said worriedly, "But there are so many people here, and you're still so young..."
Xiao Letong said, "Great-grandfather, I will be careful. Don't worry. I can do it on my own."
Xiao Lingyu also said, "Grandfather, it's fine."
Old Master Gong directly placed Xiao Tong on the ground.
"In-law, you're finally here!" Soon after, the Xiao family members greeted Old Master Gong one by one. Many villagers also continuously greeted Old Master Gong.
The surrounding tourists, "..."
He was indeed a big shot. So he was the in-laws of the Big Boss.
