The trees in the yard are even more robust than back in the day, with lush branches and leaves overshadowing half of the yard.
Moreover, nourished by Spiritual Energy, they have also transformed into spirit trees.
The yard remains clean and tidy, without a single weed.
Clearly, during the years they were gone, the villagers continued to come regularly to clean the yard.
Lu Qing stood in the yard, looking at the familiar scenery before him, a hint of nostalgia welled up in his heart.
After decades away, everything here has not changed.
And yet, it seems, everything has changed.
Little Yan and Little Li were not so sentimental; they started bustling around as soon as they entered.
Little Yan started tidying up the house, while Little Li perched on Lu Qing's shoulder as usual.
Lu Qing sat down on the stone bench in the yard, lifting his head to gaze at the night sky.
He sat quietly, thinking of nothing, just enjoying this rare tranquility.
