Chapter 298.. Looking forward to it
The two old men, each nearly a hundred years old, were very excited and happily approached each other.
Especially the village chief Wang, who really didn’t expect to meet Hua Man from Hua Village in his lifetime,
The two of them had even lived in the city together when they were young.
As they aged, they both settled down, and with increasing responsibilities, they rarely had time to connect unless something came up.
The main reason was that the two villages were quite far apart, almost ten miles between them, making it really difficult to meet up due to their busy lives.
"Hua Man, it’s so great, it’s really so great to see you again." Wang Dashu, overwhelmed with emotion, immediately hugged his old friend, urging his worried son behind him to come forward as well.
Even while speaking, Wang Dashu, a grandfather now, had reddened eyes, tears welling up in his murky eyes.
"Yes! Yes! It’s wonderful," Hua Man also excitedly hugged Wang Dashu back.
"Come, let’s talk over here." Hua Lao Han pointed to a still-living big tree by the roadside.
"Alright," not wanting to leave so soon after meeting an old friend, Wang Dashu called out to the hundred or so men behind him, leading them under the tree Hua Lao Han pointed out. Together with the dozens from Hua Village, this group would make anyone passing by steer clear from a distance.
"You guys... are you all okay?" Hua Lao Han asked, noticing that the people from Wangjia Village were visibly thinner than those in his village.
But... they seemed okay. Although very thin, they weren’t as emaciated as others, and their energy and spirits appeared quite good.
