"Nancheng, Su Xiaoxiao?" Old Man Hua's clear eyes suddenly became cloudy, his thoughts were racing, his heart beat faster, and his hands and feet trembled slightly.

Su Xiao nodded, "Well, grandpa knows Nancheng? It's next door, quite close."

"Nancheng? Haha, I know, I know, I went there when I was young." The old man Gong noticed that the old man Hua's mood was fluctuating, and hurriedly half-blocked in front of him, talking and laughing loudly.

Su Xiao didn't notice anything, and smiled.

"How old is Xiaoxiao? I saw that you are about the same age as Tianniu. Why did you go to the countryside?"

A few people put down the baskets, walked to the side to rest, and the old man Gong casually inquired about Su Xiaoxiao's situation.

"My face looks small, but I'm actually not too young. I'm four years older than Tian Niu. I'm going to graduate from high school in June this year."

Su Xiaoxiao helped Mrs. Cai tidy up the pigweed they brought back, while answering the old man's questions, just chatting.

Old man Hua's mood had stabilized, and he said casually, "Then you haven't graduated from high school yet? Why are you going to the countryside at this time?"

Su Xiao smiled, "Something happened at home, so I went to the countryside early."

When Old Man Hua heard about the situation at home, he hesitated again. Could it be that they had the same first and last names? The couple in the Su family he knew were both working. How could it be possible for the little girl to come to the countryside?
He wanted to ask her specific home address, but he was afraid that it would be too abrupt, so he was a little absent-minded for a while.

The old man Gong frowned slightly, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart, and hurriedly helped to continue to ask, "Then what will you do with your studies when you come to the countryside?"

"I've already communicated with the school leaders. When I go back to take the exam in June, if I pass, I will be issued a diploma."

"Oh, that's good too, your school is quite humane."

Old Man Gong and Old Man Cai had already started cutting pigweed, and there were regular thumping sounds in the yard.

"Xiao Xiao, where is your home in Nancheng?" Old man Hua thought for a while, he really wanted to know the news about his family, so he didn't care too much, so he asked.

Afraid of being too abrupt, he added, "I have a friend in Nancheng who I haven't contacted for many years. If it's not far away, I want you to bring a letter when you go back."

"Yes." Su Xiao didn't think too much about it. She knew the history and felt sympathetic to these old people. With an attitude of helping if she could, she readily agreed, "My home is at No. 26, Da'an Hutong, Xuanwu Road, Nancheng. Grandpa , even if you are far away, I can bring it to you, don't worry, I promise to bring it to you."

When Su Xiao told his home address, not only Old Man Hua, but Old Man Gong and Old Man Cai also got excited.

They often listen to old man Hua nagging, and they have already memorized that address by heart.

Old man Gong looked at his legs, and looked at old man Hua guiltily, it was hard for him these years.

"Okay, thank you." Old man Hua lowered his head, tears welled up in his eyes, he couldn't hold back, turned and left.

Su Xiao finally noticed that Old Man Hua's mood was wrong, and he couldn't help but feel awkward, secretly guessing that the friends he mentioned were probably relatives.

"Then I'll go over there first. Grandpas, Granny Cai, I'll come back when I'm done." Su Xiao sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so as to avoid the embarrassment of the other party, she decided to withdraw first, leaving some space for them to talk.

"Okay, okay, come and sit down when you're free." Granny Cai nodded in response, and then called Tian Niu, "Tian Niu, you don't need to work here, go and help your little miss."

"Ok."
