The second day, the Han family sent two horse carriages to pick up Xie Yunjin's family. Classmate Han however, didn't come.
He was at the osmanthus alley, waiting for Xie Yunjin and his family.
Xie Yunjin, Lu Jiao, and all the valuables went onto the front carriage. The dogs, sheep, and two rabbits were brought onto the second carriage. Lu Gui also got into the second carriage.
The family then left the Xie village in carriages. Xie Laogen and the other villagers walked behind them to send them out.
Xie Laogen watched his third son leave the village and somehow felt very unsettled.
Though to him, his eldest son meant the most to him, his third son was the person who brought honor. If he left and never returned, would the others still respect him as they do now?
Xie Laogen couldn't stop himself. He chased after the horse carriage and shouted, "My third son, the Xie Village is your roots! Don't forget to come back and visit often!"
