The golden autumn season was indeed fascinating, especially in the autumn of Shancheng.

Niu Yang City was no exception.

The wind was always refreshing; the sun was always warm; the people were happy in their hearts — the harvest this year was better than any previous year.

The autumn afternoon was good for refreshment.

At this moment, Mr. Chu was sitting under the willow tree in front of his house with his eyes closed.

The house was a wooden house. The house wasn't big, but it had two floors. In the tower.

Mr Chu was very grateful to the villagers around him, just like how the people were grateful to Mr Chu. Six years ago, father and son lived in the academy, but the academy was indeed too big. One old and one young, the two of them lived in a spacious and lonely place, so Mr Chu built a small hut here as his residence.

Who would have thought that the next morning, there would be fifty to sixty years of strong young men leaning against the wooden wall, "Bang! Bang!" When Mr. Chu returned home in the evening, he could not find the cottage. He thought that he had made a mistake, but he did not expect that a large group of people would suddenly jump out from all around the house. The old man and the young woman would either hold a bowl or carry a bowl or carry some wheat in their hands, and when the old man understood what was going on, they were all moved to tears. From then on, the children of commoners were exempted from tuition fees. Mr Chu was also doing his best to nurture the children of the common people in return to his kind family.

At the start of the day, Mr Chu could no longer be bothered to relax. During the farm season, the children all came home on vacation to help their parents reap the wheat.

In front of Mister Chu was a vast expanse of wheat fields.

A light breeze blew past, causing waves of wheat to rise into the air. Golden wheat, golden sunlight.

The wheat fields far and near were swarming with people. The sound of a sickle cutting wheat, the sound of a young man beating wheat, the sound of a woman giggling as she laboured, the sound of a man carrying wheat home, the sound of a chicken barking near the house .. It was like a movement in music. Mr. Chu was full and comfortable. In the living room, the little guy, Chu Xiangnan, was sprawled on a table. She had caught two grasshoppers somewhere, and was playing with them in the box. From time to time, she would grab some grasshoppers that jumped out of the box. Next to the table was a pile of notes that Grandpa had written down for ten times.

"Yohoho .." Yohoho .. "Ai, uncle, you're resting .."

At home, Er Hu Zi carried the wheat all the way home, passing Mr. Chu in front of the door. When Erhu Zi was building the house for the old man, he broke his right leg. It was unknown what kind of medicine Elder Chu used to reconnect it, but it was still the same as ever.

"Mm .." "Hmm?" Ohoho, good harvest, tigers .. Come and rest... "Rest .."

"How about tonight? Haha, I'll come listen to your lecture tonight. I have to hurry and finish collecting the wheat .." "Yohoho .." In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the corner.

"Aiyo .." "Elder Chu, you are always napping .."

"Hey, hey, hey, it's Second Aunt Niu. Oh, why are you carrying such a big bag of wheat? It's a good harvest .." Come and rest... "Take a rest .."

The boss's second aunt was currently carrying a large bag of wheat as she passed by. He was holding his four-year-old son, "Little Da", in his hand.

"I'm not resting, I need to hurry back to cook .." "Hey, grandpa, you should come over for dinner later .."

"Yohoho .." Good... Good... Auntie, please leave quickly .. This child is so obedient .. "Haha .."

"Grandpa .." Even though he was being pulled by his mother, he was still unable to keep up, so he turned his head around and shouted. He put his little finger in his mouth.

"Ai .." Yohoho .. "My mouth is so sweet .."

"Grandfather .." I want... I want to drink... "Drink water .." The little guy was indeed thirsty.

"Yo yo, good, good. Come drink .." "Come drink .."

"Go home and drink. Be obedient. We'll be there soon .." Second Aunt had taught the little guy a lesson.

Who would have thought that with a tug of the little guy's hand, he would escape from his mother's hand and then squat down on the ground, really unable to get up.

"I want to drink... I want to drink... "Hmm .."

"Ai, aunty, just let me drink .." It's just a drink of water... "Hehe .."

"Sigh, Nannan ah, ladle some water for the baby .." "Kid, grandpa told big brother Nan to give you water to drink .."

"Sigh .." When Chu Xiangnan heard his grandpa's shout, she quickly got up and stood at the door.

The baby got out of the horse, looked at his mother, and ran to the door with a laugh.

"That stubborn bastard, when he grows up, he's like his father .." Second Aunt Niu had no other choice but to slowly place the basket against the ground. Then, she followed him to the wooden house.

"Little brother, come drink some water .." Chu Xiangnan was already standing at the door with half a ladle of water in his hand.

The little guy ran up, out of breath. Grabbing the ladle, he gulped it down.

"Hey, slow down... Don't choke... "It's all yours .." Chu Xiangnan was afraid of choking her little brother, so she held the handle tightly and slowly gave it to him to drink.

In the end, the little guy should have had enough to drink. But she snatched up the ladle and turned and held it up to her mother.

"Mother, drink .."

The little guy was really sensible and considerate.

"Ai .." If mother doesn't drink, mother isn't thirsty .. "Let's go back, ah .."

You're thirsty. Drink .." Drink it... Before You... You just have to find Sanniang... Ask for Water... "Haargh!" The little guy had a fierce expression, but he was extremely quick-witted.

"Good, good .." "Mother, drink! Mother, drink .." Second Aunt couldn't force the little guy, so she took the water and drank it.

"It tastes great, Mother .." "It tastes great .." The little guy happily watched his mother finish the water, then he took the ladle and handed it to Chu Xiangnan.

"Thank you brother .." "Thank you grandpa .." The little guy was also very polite.

"Let's go home. Father will be waiting for dinner .."

"Time to go home .." "Time to go home .." The little guy finally grabbed his mother's hand in satisfaction and hopped after her. Not long after, he disappeared into the road.

"Nan Nan, grandpa is going out to order some food, don't run around at home .." Mr. Chu sent the two of them away, stretched his back and yawned. He looked at the sun and realized that it was time to prepare dinner.

"Nan Nan? "Did you hear that .." Mister Chu didn't hear Chu Xiangnan's response, so he turned around and called out again. She saw Chu Xiangnan leaning on the door with a ladle in hand.

"Nan Nan? Are you all right? "Ah?" Mr Chu found the little guy a little strange. Prepared to walk over.

"Ah?" Oh... Um .. "Got it .." Chu Xiangnan immediately responded to her grandfather as if she had just awoken from a dream.

Mr Chu lowered his head and frowned, "What's wrong with him today?"

"Then I'm going out .." "Don't run around .."

"Got it .." "Grandpa .." She heard Chu Xiangnan reply loudly in the room as usual.

Mr. Chu seemed to be a little relieved. He looked towards the door and shook his head. He laughed. Then he disappeared into the garden behind the house.

As Chu Xiangnan sat in her study room, she suddenly felt a strong desire, but it was also an unspeakable desire. Ever since the scene of him drinking water with his mother. Never had such a consciousness before, not at all. Even now he was nine years old.

But today, something deep in his heart had been touched, deeply touched. It seemed to be slowly awakening some important but unnoticed detail from past memories. His subconscious was capturing some vague impressions, but they were always distant and illusory in his mind.

At this moment. Chu Xiangnan had grown up a lot. He just didn't know yet.

The mountain village in the night was even more beautiful. This was also the happiest moment for the villagers. At this moment, the village was the most lively.

Mr. Chu cooked a few dishes today. Today, Uncle Li's family asked someone to help them collect the wheat. He specially butchered a pig and brought a large piece of good meat to Uncle Chu. There was also the small intestine, which was Chu Xiangnan's favorite food.

Tonight, Lord Chu's table was already plentiful enough. Three fried meat dishes and a large bowl of chili powder sausage!

"Here, Nannan, eat this first... "Come .."

Chu Feng scooped a bowl full of powdered sausages and passed it to Little Xiang Nan.

"Eat while it's hot. Ah, tell the story outside after eating. Ah .." "Come, eat .."

"Grandfather, I .. "I don't want to eat it .." Little Xiang Nan chopped the chopsticks back and forth in the bowl, her two eyebrows almost touching.

"Hmm? Not feeling well? Nan Nan .. "You don't feel well?"

Mr. Chu was getting anxious, as he was afraid that Xiang Nan would have a minor ailment or something. Ye Zichen quickly reached out his hand to touch Lil 'Xiangnan's forehead. However, Little Xiang Nan tilted her head and avoided it.

"I'm fine, grandpa, go ahead and eat .. "I just don't have any appetite .."

"What's the matter with this child today? "He's not sick either .." Mr. Chu was puzzled. He was silent for a long time.

"Ai .." Yohoho .. Drink some soup first, chili powder soup, the most appetizing, ah... Come, listen, drink. Otherwise, your grandpa wouldn't like Nan Nan anymore. "

Little Xiangnan was still sensible and took a sip from her bowl.

When Chu Feng saw that Little Xiang Nan was eating, he couldn't help but be slightly overjoyed.

"Ai .." Come and eat more... "Eat more .."

"Grandpa .."

However, he saw Little Xiang Nan put down her chopsticks, wanting to say something but then hesitating, as if she had something to say to her grandfather.

"Hm?" What's the matter? "Nan Nan .."

"I... "I .." Little Xiang Nan's face was red, and there seemed to be tears flashing in the corners of her eyes.

"Nannan, speak slowly, speak slowly, grandpa is listening, ah .." Chu Feng was puzzled, "Isn't this little guy too abnormal today?" You've never been like this before? "

"Grandfather .." I... Don't I have a mother? "

Chu Feng was shocked and almost jumped up from his chair. He looked at Little Xiangnan in shock. Little Xiangnan was anxiously looking at her grandfather.

Chu Feng tried his best to suppress his emotions.

"Yes, of course our Nannan has a mother .." No mother, how can there be a Nan Nan .. "Let's eat first, Nan Nan .."

"Really? Really?... "Where is my mother?" "I want to see my mother, grandfather .." When the little guy heard he had a mother, he jumped out of his chair and hugged his grandfather's neck.

"Where is mom, grandpa .." "Where is grandpa .." The little guy didn't hold back as he held his grandfather and shook him with all his might.

"Aiyo, grandpa's about to suffocate from your shaking .."

"Un, I won't shake, I won't shake. Grandpa, quickly speak .."

The little guy finally let go of his hand.

"Mm, your mother is far away from here."

"How far is it? I want to see her .. " Little Xiang Nan hugged her grandpa's neck again.

"Very, very far away .. En, grandpa promises you, I'll bring Nan Nan to see your mother after the new year .. "But Nan Nan must be obedient. You can't not eat in the future, or else grandpa won't take you there .."

"Alright, I'll eat, I'll eat .." Little Xiang Nan was beyond happy when she heard that she could see her mother. He picked up the bowl and gulped it down.

The moonlight after autumn was very good. And tonight was the full moon.

When it was past midnight, Little Xiang Nan was sleeping soundly. Moonlight shone through the window onto his little face, but the little guy was smiling, as if he was having a beautiful dream, and saw his favorite thing in his dreams.

Sitting under the willow tree in front of the door was an old man.

Mr Chu stared at the distant mountains, his mind in a state of turmoil, unable to calm down even after a long while.

"Ai .." Here it comes .. "It's finally here .." Mr. Chu muttered to himself.

Perhaps he already knew that he would face this day sooner or later. And Mr Chu was already prepared. However, Mr. Chu did not expect this day to come so early.

After a long while, Mister Chu took out something from his bosom and unfolded it. Under the moonlight, it looked like a sheepskin thing with words written on it. If one looked closely, one would see that it was actually in the Sanskrit language.

Then, Mr. Chu stood up, holding the rolled out sheepskin cloth, and kowtowed three times towards the mountains in the west.

"Big brother, destiny, destiny .." I will definitely kill him... Raise adults... "

The old man put the sheepskin away. Under the moonlight, two shining lines slowly slid down his cheeks ..

At this moment, the sky was about to brighten.
