70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 367: Reluctant to Leave

After countless urgings and admonishments, the old couple finally let go of the matter, and they reminded them not to discuss it outside. Xu Mumu felt relieved at last.

Xu Minghui knew himself what he needed to prepare, while as for his parents, Xu Mumu planned to let them continue their current work.

The job Xu Hai was currently doing allowed him to hone his carpentry skills, and Li Caixia’s job, as long as she worked hard and pursued progress, it would also provide her with an opportunity to enter the system in the future, with great prospects.

As for her brother, she could tell that he used to want to trade those things, but no one at home agreed, holding him back, so he hadn’t had the chance to develop. Now the opportunity was coming, and he would surely seize it.

The time at home always passes quickly, and Xu Mumu and Yin Yang had bought tickets to the Imperial City.

Xu Minghui had finished his temporary job and carefully put away the salary he received. Originally, getting paid was a happy thing, but his sister and others were leaving again, and he was reluctant. If he had worked a little harder before and aimed to get into a school in the Imperial City, he could have been there to take care of his sister.

"Sister, when will you be back next time?" Xu Minghui was very reluctant to let his sister go so far away.

"Probably around New Year. There’s hardly any break during National Day, so I won’t come back." Xu Mumu thought for a moment and said, feeling a bit reluctant herself.

"That long?" Li Caixia also joined in, although the fact that her daughter was going to study in the Imperial City made her proud, she was also reluctant; naturally, she hoped to see her daughter every day.

"It’s not that long, less than half a year. Mom, you should also study well at home." Xu Mumu said with a smile, gently patting Li Caixia’s hand. This life in the provincial city for more than half a year had actually changed Li Caixia quite a bit, greatly improving her outlook. This was already a big progress, at least Xu Mumu was very satisfied, and everything else could slowly change.

"Don’t worry, I’ll definitely make your dad study well, won’t let you down." Talking about studying, Li Caixia was filled with ambition and even thought she was doing quite well.

"Mom, I’m relieved with your confidence." The corner of Xu Mumu’s mouth slightly twitched, but she didn’t forget to encourage her mother. At least she saw that they were studying very seriously, and now their conversation was much better than before.

A few days later, Xu Mumu and others boarded the train back to the Imperial City. The little guy apparently knew something when they left. After Xu Mumu and others boarded the train, the little guy began crying loudly, unable to be comforted.

Listening to her little brother’s cries, Xu Mumu’s heart felt like it was breaking, making her somewhat reluctant to leave.

"The little brother is still crying." Xu Mumu put her things away and looked at her family not far outside the train window, feeling even more unwilling to part with them.

"Once we get back, we’ll set up a phone, so you can call home anytime." Yin Yang said earnestly, even he was feeling reluctant, the little guy was quite cute, he grew up lonely, and he quite enjoyed the liveliness of Xu Mumu’s home.

"Okay." Xu Mumu nodded, planning to give them a surprise later.

The Imperial City still had a lot of nice kids’ clothes, and her little brother was quite mischievous, easily wearing out clothes. It was time to buy some new clothes, and once they got to the Imperial City, she planned to buy more clothes to send back home.

The train slowly started, and Xu Mumu waved to Madam Chen and others.

Watching the train go far away, Madam Chen and others took Fengfeng back home.

After nearly three days, they finally arrived at the Imperial City, and the scorching heat hit them in the face, making Xu Mumu a bit unaccustomed. It was much hotter here than back home.

"Why is it so hot here? How long has it been since it rained?" Xu Mumu used her handkerchief to wipe her forehead. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"It hasn’t rained a drop in over half a month. Come on, let’s go home first." Zhou Yunhong laughed, sweating profusely.

The two nodded, not planning to stay under the blazing sun. It was truly too hot, even Xu Mumu felt it.

Xu Mumu missed the refrigerator and planned to deal with the air conditioning when she had the chance. Life without air conditioning was too hard.

Back at the courtyard, the two dogs came running over immediately. After two months, they had grown quite a bit, both in weight and height.

"Big dog, you still remember me, huh." Xu Mumu reached out and picked up the big dog, feeling quite heavy. It seemed these past days had been good.

The two dogs, of course, couldn’t respond to her but wagged their tails continuously, always trying to bite the hem of Xu Mumu’s skirt.

Xu Mumu gently kicked the dogs away a bit, as the sharp teeth of the dog could easily tear her skirt.

"Mumu, finally you’re back, come inside. Old Jian brought back a watermelon, chilling it in the well. Liu, quickly get the watermelon out." Professor Song said excitedly.

"Professor Song, I’ll go immediately." Mrs. Liu said with a smile, quickly fetching the watermelon from the water and then cutting it in the kitchen.

"Sir Song, have you been well here?" Xu Mumu entered with a smile; in the courtyard, a large tree blocked the sun from the house, making the room less hot.

"Everything’s fine. We thought you’d come a few days later, but didn’t expect you to come back earlier." Professor Song was quite happy to see Xu Mumu and Yin Yang return.

"By the way, where’s Sir Jian?" Not seeing Professor Jian in the room, Xu Mumu was curious.

"Old Jian has some problems with his experiment and went to take care of it. It’s okay; he’ll be back later." Professor Song said with a smile.

"Mrs. Liu, could you help me take these to the kitchen? I brought them from home." Xu Mumu took out the dried goods she brought, which Madam Chen had stuffed her with before she left, these were mushrooms Xu Jiaojiao had picked in the mountains, the good ones were sold, and some slightly damaged ones were eaten or dried for storage.

This summer they also earned quite a bit of money, so they didn’t sell the dry mushrooms, instead bringing them along when they returned to the provincial city.

They also brought some potatoes, sweet potatoes, and vegetables, which Madam Chen really wanted her to take, but Xu Mumu steadfastly refused, leaving them for home consumption. There’s no shortage of anything here, and there are quite a lot of those things; if there were only a few, she’d willingly take them.

"Okay, do you want to eat them tonight? If so, I’ll soak a bit now." Looking at the still decent fungi, Mrs. Liu asked with a smile.
