C525 Good News
After a long ride in the cart and car, Xue Xue'er got out of the bus station in big and small bags. This time, she was not as panicked as last time.1
Her memory had always been very good. She even remembered the road Fifth Uncle and Xiaowan took her to last time. So she stepped on the dirt road and slowly walked towards Fifth Xue's small building.
Walking on the road, she felt a little emotional. She had not seen these roads properly last time. Most of the roads in the 21st century were green drains, big and spacious. Most of the roads here were dirt roads. They probably wouldn't start building new roads until the end of the 21st century.
After walking for a while, they would pass by a market. The market was noisy. There were restaurants and convenience stores everywhere. Most of the owners were old.
The vegetable vendors were also shouting, praising the freshness of their dishes. Xue Xue'er returned to the stall where she bought the vegetables last time and saw the Lady Boss again as expected.
The Lady Boss still remembered Xue Xue'er and even greeted her, "Little girl, you haven't been here to buy vegetables for a long time. What have you been doing?"
"Auntie, I went home and now I am back. Auntie, how much are you selling this dish? " Xue Xue'er answered as she pointed to the fresh lettuce and asked.
The lettuce looked very fresh with water droplets on it. There was no trace of being bitten by insects at all. It could be seen that the auntie was very diligent in planting it.
"One is only a hair. Little girl, do you want a few?"
"Okay. Auntie, help me weigh a few."
Xue Xue'er took out the change from her bag, paid the bill, and left with the vegetables. She walked around the market a few more times and bought the vegetables needed for dinner today. Then she continued to walk towards Fifth Xue's house.
When she reached Fifth Xue's door, it was almost 12 o'clock. She panted and calmed her breathing before she raised her hand to knock on the door.
At this moment, someone interrupted her.
"Xue Er!"
She looked over and saw someone she hadn't expected to see.
It was only when she was hugged and the familiar smell lingered on her nose that she was sure it was real.
Ouyang Qing'an hugged Xue Xue'er tightly and did not want to let go for a moment. He whispered softly beside her ear, as if he was speaking to a lover who had been separated for a long time.
"Xue'er, I am very happy. I am especially happy today."
When he found out that Xue Xue'er was still on the first prize list, he felt like he had been struck by a huge surprise. This news meant that he and Xue'er could receive the award together. They would receive the envy and blessings of everyone.
Although it was not a wedding, he was also very happy to be able to stand side by side with her and be looked at by everyone. That was why he abandoned his heavy studies and came all the way here to see Xue Er based on the address he had asked for.
She might not be coming today, but it didn't matter, he would come every day to wait. However, the heavens still favored him. As soon as he arrived, he saw Xue'er about to knock on the door.
In that instant, emotions overcame reason. He desperately hugged her as if he was hugging his own happiness.
Xue Xue'er was held in a daze for a long time before she found her words, "Mr Qing'an, why are you here?"
Actually, what she wanted to ask was, why did Ouyang Qing'an know that she was here today? And how did he know the address of Fifth Uncle's home?
"Because our hearts are connected."
