On the nineteenth of the first month, accompanied by Li Xingnian, the three Daohua siblings returned to Xingzhou.
"Grandmother, I'm back!"
As soon as she entered Old Madam Yan's room, Daohua threw herself into the old lady's arms, "I was gone for so long, did you miss me?"
Old Madam Yan was pushed backward by Daohua's embrace and lightly patted her back with mild annoyance, scolding with a laugh, "How old are you now, and you're still so clingy!"
As she spoke, she pulled Daohua away to take a careful look at her.
This girl had grown up by her side since childhood; this was the first time she had left her. Indeed, having gotten used to her granddaughter buzzing around her like a little bee every day, the sudden departure had left her somewhat unaccustomed.
She wondered if the girl had been eating and sleeping well while staying at her uncle's these past half a month.
