Chapter 196: Home
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
He Feng returned to the criminal police unit early the next morning, and He Peng looked much better than he had in the past few days.
Fang Ya looked at He Peng diligently helping Mingxia clean up the courtyard, and a gratified smile appeared on her face.
It had not been easy for He Peng to integrate into the current living environment.
Fang Ya used to dislike getting too close to outsiders.
However, ever since she was reborn, she was not shy to ask for aid when she needed it, and she hoped that she could return the aid to as many people as possible.
If she was not careful, so many more people would have ended up beneath her roof.
Fang Ya looked at Mingxia playing tag with He Peng. The two of them were laughing and playing, and they looked very happy.
Shao Xiang walked towards Fang Ya, and there was a strange expression on her face. “I need to talk to you.”
Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang’s serious gaze and her heart skipped a beat.
She nodded and helped Shao Xiang into the house.
Shao Xiang seemed to have aged a lot recently.
Although she did not say it, Fang Ya knew very well that she was worried about Wu Wei.
Han Qiao would also cry silently every day when she returned home.
Fang Ya and Shao Xiang sat opposite each other. The two of them were silent.
After a long while, Shao Xiang finally spoke, “After Wu Wei’s case is settled, regardless of whether he can come out alive or not…”
“I want to go back to my hometown. The fallen leaves have to return to their roots.” Shao Xiang spoke with a tone that carried the indescribable exhaustion and vicissitudes of life.
Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang and pondered for a moment before saying, “I’ve never been to your hometown. Is there anyone else there?”
Shao Xiang shook her head. “I don’t know! I fled it that year and never went back.
“It’s been decades. I don’t know what that place has become.” As Shao Xiang spoke, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
“That year, I eloped with Wu Wei’s father all the way from my hometown. I thought I could live a good life, but who knew…” Shao Xiang sighed.
“I met your father. I had a comfortable life for a few years. After that, you took care of me…” Shao Xiang said as she gently held Fang Ya’s hand.
“Maybe all the good luck in my life has been used up!” Shao Xiang said as tears flashed in her eyes.
“It’s time for me to head back. I’m tired. I’ll go back to where I came from.” Shao Xiang’s tone was full of sorrow.
Fang Ya thought for a moment and said, “I’ll find some time to accompany you back for a walk and then make a decision, okay?”
Shao Xiang did not seem to have any reason to refuse.
She nodded and said, “I’ll listen to you!”
Fang Ya’s face revealed a slight smile, and her tone was full of tenderness. “It’s not like there’s no turning back for Wu Wei. Moreover, Tang Tang and the others will definitely miss you!”
Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya and tears finally fell. “The ones I’m most reluctant to part with are them.
“In my life, I didn’t have much luck. The best luck I had was to have you and Tang Tang,” Shao Xiang said from the bottom of her heart.
Fang Ya smiled gently. “People say living to a ripe age is one of the greatest blessings one could have. You’re our family’s blessing!”
Shao Xiang listened to Fang Ya’s words, and a smile finally appeared on her face.
After chatting with Shao Xiang, Fang Ya decided to bring Shao Xiang back to her hometown to take a look.
Regardless of whether she planned to stay there or not, she had to at least know the situation there and whether Shao Xiang’s relatives were still there.
After Fang Ya made her decision, she went to the train station to buy a ticket.
Shao Xiang’s hometown was not too far from the city where they were. It was about seven to eight hours by train.
Mingxia was taking care of the family, and Han Qiao needed to go to work. Fang Ya handed He Peng over to Wang Xu to take care of him.
Lin Ze was tutoring He Peng, so Fang Ya was naturally at ease.
As for Tang Tang, Fang Ya took her with her and went to Shao Xiang’s hometown.
Shao Xiang’s hometown was a relatively backward and declining small village.
They got off the train from the station and had to take a bus to get to the town.
If she wanted to return to the village from the town, she needed to borrow a horse carriage from a farmer’s family.
Fang Ya found a temporary place to stay in the town. It was a hotel that was open to the public.
In this place, this was the only hotel. Although the conditions were a little bad, at least there was a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Tang Tang had never stayed in such a place. It was too luxurious for her, all of a sudden.
Fang Ya discussed it with the hotel owner and asked the owner to help rent a carriage back to the village.
The next morning, Fang Ya took Shao Xiang and Tang Tang into the carriage.
The carriage traveled out for more than an hour and finally came upon the path to the village.
Because the road was too narrow and full of gravel, the carriage could not enter.. Fang Ya could only pay the driver to come and pick them up later.
