However, upon hearing her husband's words, she suddenly remembered.

But...

”Master, I know that you have good intentions, but I feel that this matter is unfair to the child.” Although she and her husband only had Yuanxi as their only daughter and she did not know when her son would be born, she still felt that it was unfair to think of the other children that could stay with them and one of them living alone in the Xiahe Village.

”Now that we have uncle and Cousin to look after us after us, we will be fine. As for the future, let's talk about it later. I don't want to separate from my child. ”

Although Dong Shu did not say that she wanted to return to Xiahe Village in the future, Xu Shiqiu still understood what she meant.

She still wanted to come back here.

Xu Shiqiu reached out and pulled Dong Shu into his embrace, ”My wife, accompany me to the capital first. Once I've settled the matters there, I'll accompany you back, okay?”

Dong Shu rarely heard Xu Shiqiu use such a tone to talk to his, and after being stunned for a moment, his eyes started to feel a little sore for some reason.

Sniffing his nose, Dong Shu's head slightly moved. After that, afraid that Xu Shiqiu might not see it, he hurriedly said, ”Okay, hubby is so nice.”

Hearing the Young Girl say that he was good, Xu Shiqiu felt that he had actually not done enough.

To him, Xiahe Village was just a place that he had stayed in for ten years. In his twenty-six years of life, not even half of it.

But for a wife who was only sixteen this year, this was the place where she was born and raised.

However, because of what happened today, the relationship between Xu Shiqiu and himself seemed to have ascended to another level.

Even the Old Madame Xu could feel the sweetness between them.

Dong Lei had come to find Xu Shiqiu three days later, he felt that Xu Shiqiu had definitely talked to him before.

Only, he did not expect Xu Shiqiu to reject him right after he brought up this matter.

”Third Young Master, our family is really not scheming anything, it's just, it's just …” Dong Lei would usually say that since he was a shop assistant in the past and now, he was the manager.

But now, facing Xu Shiqiu, he did not know how to continue.

Seeing Dong Lei in such a difficult situation, Xu Shiqiu immediately laughed and shook his head: ”I still believe you.” If these were from the Madame Dai or the Dong Clan, Xu Shiqiu would suspect that they had other intentions.

However, after spending a few months with Dong Lei and seeing how he was not in charge at all and learning how he could now handle the matters of a few stores, he understood that Dong Lei was a smart person, and a person who knew how to measure himself.

Since he was a smart person and knew how to judge himself, he was truly worried for his father-in-law's mother and father's sake when he said those words today.

”I and my wife understand Cousin's intentions.” Xu Shiqiu first looked at Dong Lei to speak, then looked at Dong Shu at his side. Only then, he looked at Dong Lei and continued, ”I have already discussed this with my wife, so when I finish settling the matters in the capital, I will come back to Xiahe Village.”

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Lei's eyes lit up.

He had never thought that his cousin would come back one day.

He thought that if they left here, they would never return to Xiahe Village.

Even if he met her in the future, he would be the one to go to the capital and report to Xu Shiqiu about the businesses there. He really did not expect that his cousin could return one day.

However, since his younger cousin would come back in the future, his family naturally didn't need to continue thinking about what they would do next.

As long as he was alive, his aunt and uncle's tomb would definitely be worshipped, and he believed that he would be able to survive for thirty years.

With this deal made, Xu Family began to prepare to return to the capital.

Xu Shiqiu finally decided to return to the capital on the sixth day of April. Otherwise, it would be April 18th on the next day, when it was appropriate to leave and not go against his family members.

April 18 was too late. With the help of the elderly and children, their return to the capital was destined to not be too fast.

If they were to depart on the sixth day of the fourth month, at least they would be able to reach the capital before the fifth month. When they reach the capital, they would need to rest for a few more days before Xu Family would be able to open the door to receive guests.

These things to pack, could be left to the servants. Dong Shu and Xu Shiqiu did not need to do anything.

It was just that after he finished the morning practice, Xu Shiqiu saw the Young Girl sitting in the courtyard in a daze, staring at the pomegranate tree which already had flower buds on it.

”My wife, what happened to you?” Xu Shiqiu looked at the pomegranate tree in confusion. After not seeing anything wrong with the pomegranate tree, he looked at Dong Shu and asked, ”Does my wife want to eat pomegranate now?”

”No.” Dong Shu looked at the pomegranate tree and opened her mouth, after sighing for a while, she looked at Xu Shiqiu and said: ”If we were to return to the capital, what about the pomegranate tree that Master personally planted for me?”

Xu Shiqiu did not expect Dong Shu to worry about this matter. He walked to Dong Shu's side with large strides, held her hand, and led her to the pomegranate tree. He embraced her and said: ”My wife, this pomegranate tree will stay here, there are still servants here.

Although Xu Shiqiu said this, he was actually thinking of how he let Xu Feng and his second brother return to the capital first before planting the pomegranate tree in the capital's Shihuan Courtyard.

He had originally planned to inform the Young Girl, but for some reason, he wanted to hide it from her.

Dong Shu did not know that Xu Shiqiu had planted a pomegranate tree in the capital without telling his about it, but after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, although she was still sad, he did not say anything more.

She rested her head against Xu Shiqiu's chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat, and felt the spring that belonged to Xiahe Village.

Xu Shiqiu knew that the Young Girl was feeling sad right now. He endured for a long time, but was still unable to say anything.

He wanted to give Young Girl a pleasant surprise.
