He calmly dressed and walked out of the room.

Seeing Grandpa Fu outside, he walked over with a smile. "Grandpa, you look really sharp today..."

And indeed, Grandpa Fu did look sharp. He was wearing the new clothes that Aunt had just made for him. After Aunt finished sewing and washing them, he had put them away, too reluctant to wear them until now.

Grandpa Fu chuckled, "Xiaoxiao, you're up. Once your two brothers are up, we can have breakfast."

Fu Xiao nodded, turned around, and headed to the backyard. She washed up first and then fed the chickens. Meanwhile, her two brothers had already finished washing up and were seated at the table.

After washing her hands, she walked over, picked up a bowl of porridge, and began to drink.

Grandpa Fu looked at Fu Yu and said, "A'Yu, when you get to the county town, go find your third uncle first and see if he's already picked up the two kids. If not, go check at the train station."

Fu Weibao added, "Yes, if you need anything, just call the village. If you need to be picked up, let me know. I'll come with the ox cart to get you."

Fu Yu peeled an egg and placed it into her bowl, chuckling. "Don't worry, we'll head home as soon as we find them."

Then he looked over at Fu Hong. "Hurry up and eat."

After breakfast, the three of them set off for the county town on two bicycles.

They hadn't gone far when Fu Hong began to complain, "Big brother, whose bike is this? The chain is loose, and it's hard to pedal..."

Fu Yu, riding steadily in front with Fu Xiao on the back seat, turned his head slightly and glanced at him. "This is from Haozi's house."

"Oh," Fu Hong replied. "No wonder. That bike of his was a second-hand purchase a few years ago."

Once on the main road, Fu Yu picked up the pace. His voice carried over the wind to Fu Hong, who was lagging behind, "If you don't want to go, head back home."

Gritting his teeth, Fu Hong pedaled harder, finally catching up with the two of them. "Big brother, why didn't Second Uncle send a telegram with the exact arrival time? If we knew, we could have picked them up right away..."

Fu Yu sneered, "When has Fusui ever not caused trouble? No way Second Uncle would make such a mistake—he must be up to something."

Fu Xiao, sitting on the back seat, asked, "Big brother, what kind of person is Third Brother?"

Fu Hong burst into laughter and replied quickly, "That kid's been a troublemaker since he was little—just a little monkey."

After that, he let out a hearty laugh...

With laughter in the air, the two bicycles rode side by side toward the county town.

Meanwhile, in the county town...

Fu Weilin had already found out that the two kids had rented a room at the guesthouse.

At this moment, at the guesthouse, Fu Weilin learned the room number from the receptionist and went to the door, knocking.

Inside, Fu Yu, who was reading a book, heard the knock, walked over, and opened the door. Upon seeing Fu Weilin, he was momentarily stunned and then spoke hesitantly, "Third Uncle?"

"Yes," Fu Weilin raised an eyebrow and smiled gently, "Xiao Yu, what? Don't you recognize your Third Uncle anymore?"

Fu Yu grinned widely, "Third Uncle, how did you know we were here?"
