When they arrived at the train station, Chen Mu found a place to park the tractor and helped Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen carry their luggage inside.

When they reached the waiting room, Yu Youwen, his wife and Yu Youwu were already waiting there.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, Grandpa Chen, Grandma Chen." Yu Youwen and Yu Youwu hurried forward to say hello when they saw Chen Xiaolin and the others coming.

Yang Mei walked up to Chen Xiaolin and called out softly, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, Grandpa Chen, Grandma Chen."

"We still have half an hour before the train arrives at the station. If you want to go to the toilet, go quickly." Chen Xiaolin looked at the time. It was already half past eight. They bought the nine o'clock train.

When everyone heard Chen Xiaolin's words, they all ran to the toilet for fear of missing the time to get on the bus.

At nine o'clock, the train bound for Beijing arrived at the station on time. Chen Xiaolin and the others bought sleeper berths. There were not many people, so they easily got on the train and found their own beds.

There are only six beds in the sleeper carriage, so Yu Youwen, his wife and Yu Youwu could only go to another carriage.

Chen Xiaolin took Chen Yingbao to sleep on the middle bunk, Yu Youyin took Chen Haozhe to sleep on the upper bunk, and Grandma Chen took Chen Haowei to sleep on the lower bunk.

Opposite, Grandpa Chen slept on the lower bunk, Liu Zhaodi and her son slept on the middle bunk, and Chen Hangyu slept on the upper bunk.

You have the entire carriage to yourself, and you can close the door when you go to bed at night, so you don't have to worry about others stealing your children or stuff.

It takes four days to take a train from Heilongjiang Province to Beijing. Two years ago, Chen Xiaolin originally planned to use the excuse of returning to Beijing to visit other places, but she never found the opportunity after marrying Yu Youyin.

She hasn't been back to Beijing for several years, and she doesn't know if she is still the same as before.

Chen Xiaolin also plans to buy another courtyard house near Beijing University after returning to Beijing. Her family's house is close to the suburbs and is too far away from their school.

In the past few years, Chen Xiaolin and Yu Youyin have made a lot of money. They earned more than 10,000 yuan from selling ginseng alone. In addition to the money they earned from selling medicinal materials and game animals, as well as money from Chen Xiaolin's translation, they now have nearly 300,000 yuan in savings.

Of course, the bulk of the money was still the bankbook given to him by Master Yu Youyin.

Yu Youyin also dug out the small yellow croakers and jewelry his master gave him, and this time they were mixed with other luggage and brought to the capital.

After four days of long journey, Chen Xiaolin and her party finally arrived in Beijing.

Liu Zhaodi and his wife separated from Chen Xiaolin and others at the train station.

Chen Xiaolin took Yu Youwen and the three of them with her when she went back this time. There was room for them to stay at home, so they didn't let them waste money to stay in a guest house.

Chen Xiaolin and the others had three children and so much luggage, so they had no choice but to hire three tricycles at the train station door to take them back.

Liu Aihong was helping Chen Xiaolin clean the house with her sons Zhou Jianguo and Zhou Aiguo.

When she received a telegram from Chen Xiaolin some time ago, she wanted to come over and help clean up. Unfortunately, the weather was not kind and it started to snow that night.

"Hurry up and clean up. I don't know when Xiaolin will come back. Once the grass in the yard is cleaned, you two brothers will go to the coal factory and bring back a cart of briquettes." Liu Aihong quickly wiped the dust on the windows and the furniture in the room. She had already wiped them all, just clean the few outside windows and be done with it.

"It'll be ready soon, Mom, don't rush me." Zhou Jianguo had lived here for two years before, and he was very fond of every plant and tree here.

When Chen Xiaolin and her group arrived home, Liu Aihong and the others had not left yet.

"Xiaolin, why is the door of your house open?" Grandma Chen watched Chen Xiaolin walk to the open door of a courtyard. She thought that Chen Xiaolin had misremembered the address of her home.

"Aunt Liu should be helping with the cleaning. Let's go in and take a look." Chen Xiaolin hugged Chen Yingbao and walked directly in. She didn't know if the house was cleaned.

As soon as Chen Xiaolin walked in, she saw Liu Aihong directing her two sons to weed.

"Xiaolin, you're back. Why did you kid go back for so long and never come back to see me?" Liu Aihong was really happy to see Chen Xiaolin. She hadn't seen her for several years.

"Aunt Liu, I don't have time. Come and take a look. This is my daughter." Chen Xiaolin had written to Liu Aihong before about her marriage and having children.

"Wow, triplets, give me a hug. I was already very powerful when I gave birth to a pair of twins. I didn't expect you to be much more powerful than me. You gave birth to triplets in your lifetime."

Chen Xiaolin gave Chen Yingbao in her arms to Liu Aihong, and she went to the door to help carry the luggage.

After Liu Aihong waited for Chen Xiaolin to leave, she noticed Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen in the yard.

"You are Xiaolin's grandparents, right? My name is Liu Aihong, and I am Cheng Xin's friend."

"Xiao Liu, thank you for helping my granddaughter clean the house. We brought a lot of mountain products from home. You can go back and get some to eat later." Grandma Chen heard that her granddaughter had spoken about Liu Aihong and knew that she was very good to her granddaughter. She used to deliver meals to Xiaolin when her youngest son and daughter-in-law were not at home.

"Then I'm not welcome. The mountain products from your hometown are really good. I like eating all the ones Xiaolin sent me before." Liu Aihong really likes to eat dried mushrooms. The dried mushrooms she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative are big in size. Too small.

"If you like to eat, take more. When we finish eating, let my eldest daughter-in-law mail some more."

When Yu Youyin saw Chen Xiaolin's house, he suddenly felt a little inferior. His wife's family was so rich that he felt that he was not worthy of her.

In the future, he must make a lot of money to spend on his wife, but he cannot let her lower her consumption level after marrying him.

Chen Xiaolin arranged Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen in the house where her parents lived before, and arranged Yu Youwen, his wife, and Yu Youwu in the back room.

There are two rooms in the back wing. Zhou Jianguo's family lived there before, and the kang there can still be used.

Chen Xiaolin opened the door to her room. The layout inside had not changed after so many years.

The triplets were starting to feel a little drowsy now, so Chen Xiaolin could only make the bed first and pack the luggage later.

After making the bed and putting the triplets to sleep, she had time to think about eating.

Liu Aihong's two sons had just helped her bring the briquettes back, but there was no rice, oil or salt at home. It seemed that she had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some grain and seasonings.

I also need to buy some vegetables. This time I brought a lot of dry goods and bacon from home, so I don't need to buy fresh meat.

Yu Youyin and the others were not familiar with this place, so they could only go shopping by themselves today and show them the way tomorrow.

The triplets happened to be asleep now, and they wouldn't wake up for a while.

Chen Xiaolin took the vegetable basket and set off to the supply and marketing cooperative. Yu Youyin originally planned to accompany her, but after taking the train for so long, Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen were too tired and could not see their children, so Yu Youyin could only stay. Wait for the triplets to wake up.
