Chapter 1696: Preparing to Build a House 4
The Gu Family sent Feng Qingxue fish dumplings, which she still couldn’t bear to eat. She put them into her space, intending to let Lu Jiang have a taste.
As for the elderly and children at home, it’s not that she’s not thinking of them, but aside from Lu’s father knowing about the existence of the space, she can’t explain the origin of the fish dumplings to Cheng Baoguo and his wife and children.
Rarely having free time without children disturbing her, Feng Qingxue spent the afternoon wielding her brush.
After drying and folding them neatly, she sent them to Wen Ruyu, asking him to give his comments. She hadn’t returned to her hometown for years, relying solely on letters.
Naturally, Feng Qingxue bought a batch of seafood and sent it together with the letters back home, received by Guan Yu and Zhou Zhou, then distributed evenly among her three uncles, little aunt, and Wang Jiao, expressing that she still thinks of them while being in the South Sea. The rest was left for themselves and the group of relocated elders, as a bit of her sentiment.
They were very emotional when they received them, especially Aunt Xu, who secretly wiped her tears, telling her old companion, "In this lifetime, we’ve truly been blessed by Xiaoxue, something our own children couldn’t do."
They have four children, currently, they can only contact their twin children.
Living in the Great Northern Wilderness, the two kids have already started their own families. With children, life is tight, and sometimes the old couple has to supplement a bit of food and cotton for them. Especially hearing they have children, the old couple often troubles Feng Qingxue to get some brown sugar, millet, fabric, and nutrition supplies to send over. They have managed to get through it safely, though they haven’t met.
The other two sons, one is in the Northwest, the other in the Southeast, moved there with their families in the fifties. They were only contacted during difficult times, with food procured from Feng Qingxue sent by the old couple. They sent some money back, but contact gradually diminished, unsure if they are alive or dead.
