Qiu Zhang’s grandparents live in a small village in the northeast!

Ye Shu and his party took a flight for more than 20 hours. After landing at the airport, they took another two hours of taxi ride before arriving at their destination!

What comes into view are simple rural courtyards and farmland stretching for thousands of miles!

In the 1990s, there was not as much environmental pollution as later generations. Even telephone poles and signal towers were not yet common in rural areas.

At this time, the countryside looked clean, with only large fields and rows of houses as far as the eye could see!

From the moment he stepped into the land of Tianchao, Ye Shu was extremely excited. Looking at these familiar surroundings, Ye Shu couldn’t let go for a long time!

During the two-hour drive, Ye Shu kept looking out the window, not wanting to miss the scenery for a moment!

Although it is not as prosperous as in later generations, the overall style of the Celestial Dynasty will not change. At this time, it feels like seeing things and thinking about people!

Qiu Zhang’s family naturally noticed something strange about Ye Shu, but they didn’t think much about it. In their view, it was normal for Ye Shu, a native of the Celestial Dynasty, to be strange when he suddenly returned to his real hometown after living abroad for a long time.

“Brothers, are you from Zhangjiatun?”

I was bored on the road, so the driver asked me familiarly!

“Yes, from Zhangjiatun!”

“Our family has lived abroad for many years, and the last time we went home was five years ago!”

“The development in the country is so fast. When I left that year, I vaguely remember that it was not so prosperous yet. Now the Celestial Empire is getting stronger and stronger!”

Father Zhang nodded, his eyes full of sighs!

He did not use the word “motherland” because, strictly speaking, he was no longer a native of China after joining the nationality of country Y!

“That’s right. In the past, everyone wanted to run away because they felt that the moon abroad was very round, but now, our country is not bad either!”

“The country has developed rapidly in the past few years, and many people who went abroad have come back to get a piece of the cake.”

“Even some big foreign bosses come here to build various industries in the country!”

The driver is very talkative. For people in their profession, driving for a long time can be boring, and you can easily fall asleep when you are bored.

In order to prevent this situation, these driver masters are very talkative, in order to prevent themselves from dozing off and at the same time to close the relationship with the passengers.

“Yes, the country is getting stronger and stronger, which is a good thing!”

“A strong country will not be bullied by others!”

“But, Master, you know a lot. You even know about big foreign bosses investing in China!”

Father Zhang chuckled, obviously bored, chatting with the driver for a while!

“Hey… ordinary people like us don’t know anything. I only heard these things from the radio!”

“Sometimes when the guests are bored, I just listen to the radio for a while, and all kinds of news are playing on it!”

“Look, if you listen a lot, you’ll know it now, don’t you?”

The driver waved his hand and said nonchalantly!

“By the way, this foreign guy is your daughter’s boyfriend?”

“I have to say that your son, daughter, and boyfriend both look the same, handsome!”

The driver glanced at the people behind him in the reflection of the rearview mirror and couldn’t help but give a thumbs up and praise!

Ye Shu and his party of five couldn’t fit in an ordinary taxi, so they rented a seven-seater van!

“What kind of boyfriend? That’s just my classmate!”

“Also, this is not my brother, it’s me…it’s me…”

When she heard the driver say that Ye Shu was her brother and Cedric was her boyfriend, Qiu Zhang lost her composure and tried her best to refute!

But when explaining Ye Shu’s identity, Qiu Zhang didn’t know what to say!

Say Ye Shu is a classmate? She can’t accept this slightly alienated relationship!

However, you can’t say that the other party is your brother. Although Ye Shu treats her as a sister, Qiu Zhang is somewhat repelled by this relationship from the bottom of his heart!

“I am Qiu’s good friend. I have lived abroad since I was a child and grew up in an orphanage. I am an orphan and this is the first time I have returned to China!”

Ye Shu opened his mouth and resolved the awkward atmosphere!

“Ah… I’m sorry, I said the wrong thing!” Seeing that Qiu Zhang was a little excited, the driver hurriedly apologized!

“Qiu, you can’t be so rude!”

“Have you forgotten what I usually teach you?”

“Sorry, driver, my daughter is ignorant, don’t take it to heart!”

Father Zhang frowned, a little dissatisfied with his daughter’s rude behavior!

“It’s okay, it’s all my fault for saying the wrong thing!

“However, this young man is indeed quite handsome. Compared to foreign countries, there are many girls chasing him!”

The driver glanced at Ye Shu intentionally or unintentionally through the reflector!

“you flatter me!”

Ye Shu smiled politely and said no more!

“By the way, young man, you have lived abroad all year round, why would you think of returning to China?”

“According to what you said, you don’t have many acquaintances or friends in China!”

The driver asked seemingly casually!

“Haha, after all, I am also a Chinese. Although I grew up outside and don’t know my life experience, it is difficult to change the fact that I have the blood of the Chinese in my body.”

“It happened that my friend invited me to come to China this time, and I came here on a whim. Strictly speaking, this is my hometown.”

“Now that I know where my hometown is, it would be unreasonable if I didn’t come back to see it!”

Ye Shu said unabashedly that when he talked about his hometown, Ye Shu’s eyes were full of nostalgia!

All Ye Shu’s expressions were seen by the driver through the rearview mirror!

“Young man, if you have such an idea, I have to give you a thumbs up!”

“If everyone is like you, why worry about our heaven not being strong!”

The driver had a free hand and gave Ye Shu a thumbs up. The others chatted for a while. After the car drove for more than ten minutes, it slowly began to slow down!

“Here we are, brother, this is Zhangjiatun!”

The driver got out of the car, opened the trunk and enthusiastically helped the group carry their luggage!

After Zhang’s family got out of the car, they looked at the greatly changed small village in front of them and couldn’t help but be surprised!

“Oh, why have the houses in the village changed? I remember they used to be adobe houses!”

“Look, now many small western-style buildings have been built!”

“When I called before, my parents said that new houses had been built in the village, and our family was going to build new ones too. I thought it was just a few people, but now it seems that half of the village has built new houses!”

The small village in front of them seemed both strange and familiar to Father Zhang and Mother Zhang!

“Hey, you guys, it’s just been too long since I’ve been back. It’s like this everywhere!”

“Okay, brother, I’m going to leave now. See you later!”

The driver waved to everyone, got in the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away!

Looking at the car where the driver left, Ye Shu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with an indescribable meaning in his eyes!

PS: Next, I will write about something within the Celestial Empire, but it won’t be very long. It’s mainly to give the protagonist some new abilities! In addition, as mentioned before, it is a good opportunity for the protagonist to carry forward the magic of the East. No matter in which world or what power system it is, we in the East should be the best!
