The speed of trains is getting faster and faster. It used to take four or five days to get from Province G to my hometown, but this time it took less than three days. After getting off the train, the temperature dropped sharply.

 There were a lot of people on the train and it was quite closed. I didn't feel cold even without the air conditioner on, but the smell was a bit unpleasant.

 The group got off the bus in the city. Because it was too cold in their hometown, they did not take the bus directly back to the county town, but went to the mall to buy cotton-padded jackets.

 Jiang Rou didn't bring a cotton-padded jacket either. She hadn't worn one in the past few years in Province G, and she had thrown away her old cotton-padded jacket long ago because she thought it was ugly.

 So they went shopping together and bought pink cotton-padded jackets for An An and Li Xin. She bought a dark blue one and Li Xiao bought a black one. After putting on the cotton-padded jackets, they felt much warmer instantly.

 Shen He and his adoptive parents were curious about everything here. Unlike Province G, the outside was covered with a thick layer of snow in winter in their hometown, which was a scene that could not be seen in Province G.

 Not to mention them, An An was also surprised. In her little head, this was the first time she saw snow.

 After getting on the bus back to the county town, An An excitedly leaned against the window to look out, pointing outside to show Jiang Rou, "Mom, snow——"

 Jiang Rou smiled, "Yes, it's snow. Your father made a snowman for you when you were a child."

 An An opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Xiao, then immediately said, "Dad, we need to build a snowman."

 Li Xiao rubbed her red face and said, "Okay, I'll make one for you when we get back."

 An An smiled happily, her eyes sparkling.

 It was already twelve o'clock in the afternoon when they returned to the county town. Jiang Rou called Aunt Wang again yesterday and said that she would be back today and asked her to help dry the quilts. She did not take all the quilts with her when she first came here.

 The car stopped at the county bus station and the three families separated. Someone came to pick up Jin Dayou and Zhou Jian's families, but only Li Xiao's family hailed a car to go back by themselves.

 After An An was carried into the car by Jiang Rou, she puffed up her cheeks and asked Jiang Rou unhappily, "Mom, why didn't anyone come to pick us up?"

 Li Xiao paused while getting into the car.

 Jiang Rou looked calm and touched her little face. "The distance is too far and the weather is cold, so mom didn't send anyone to pick us up."

 An An accepted this explanation and started smiling again.

 After Li Xiao sat down, he closed the door forcefully, then turned his head to glance at Jiang Rou.

 The driver was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. He was very friendly. When he heard Jiang Rou talking, he smiled and asked them if they were from the south. He spoke with an accent.

 Jiang Rou laughed when she heard this, and then she replied in the local dialect, "Yes, I haven't been back for several years. I originally planned to come back last year, but was delayed because of SARS."

 Upon hearing this, the driver sighed and said, "Fortunately, this thing is over. Because of SARS, I rested at home for several months."

 Jiang Rou followed his words and sighed, "It's not easy for everyone."
