Jiang Feng brought bun along as the two of them quickly walked out of the bamboo forest.
Jiang Feng turned off his livestream on the way.
Eliciting a chorus of wails from his online audience.
After passing through the bamboo forest, several gray brick houses vaguely appeared before Jiang Feng’s eyes.
That was Longmen Village!
Seeing Longmen Village right before his eyes, Jiang Feng suddenly felt a strong sense of homecoming.
It had been five years since he and his sister had been back here after his parents passed away.
If it hadn’t been for this opportunity to livestream, he might not have come back here for years.
“Let’s go, bun. We’re almost home.”
Jiang Feng took a deep breath and then strode towards Longmen Village.
Whimper whimper!
Bun trotted behind Jiang Feng on his little short legs, grinning widely.
Finally Jiang Feng couldn’t stand watching this anymore. He picked up bun and put him on his shoulder.
Whimper whimper!
Seeing the path ahead, bun grinned happily.
............
Soon Jiang Feng and bun arrived at the village entrance.
The entrance had now become the information hub for the whole village. Basically all the senior villagers with nothing to do would come here to chat.
When the seniors saw Jiang Feng suddenly appear, they were all surprised.
Because they hadn't seen Jiang Feng for years too.
And what was that thing on his shoulder?
A panda?
"Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle...I'm back!"
Jiang Feng said excitedly standing at the entrance.
"Oh isn't this second nephew, haven't been back for years!"
"I thought some guest was visiting. Turns out it's this rascal second nephew!"
"Second nephew, what are you carrying on your shoulder?"
..........
The seniors immediately gathered around Jiang Feng when they saw him, asking caringly.
Jiang Feng also greeted them with a smile.
These Longmen villagers were basically all relatives. Every family could trace their seniority.
So the neighborly relations were naturally very good.
"You little brat, what are you doing back! Didn't you say you won't be back until I die!"
Just then, a dark-skinned middle-aged man holding a cane walked out gloomily, looking at Jiang Feng dissatisfiedly.
Then he raised his cane and hit Jiang Feng's thigh.
Jiang Feng didn't dodge but looked at the other person with a grin.
This cane-holding man was none other than his uncle Jiang Aiguo.
After his parents passed away five years ago, Jiang Feng left Longmen Village against advice.
In fact he had no choice, because Jiang Feng knew if he didn't leave Longmen Village, he would have no chance to improve his life.
And this of course greatly angered his uncle Jiang Aiguo.
Although everyone in the village was very poor then.
But they were still Jiang's people, how could they let the brother and sister go hungry.
Unexpectedly Jiang Feng left quietly without a word.
This angered the Jiang seniors quite a bit.
So now that Jiang Feng was back, Jiang Aiguo still didn't give him a good face.
But he was extremely happy inside.
"Uncle, I was just young and impulsive back then."
Jiang Feng said embarrassingly looking at his uncle.
"You were just too stubborn and deserved a beating!"
Jiang Aiguo raised his cane wanting to hit Jiang Feng again.
Just then, the bun on Jiang Feng's shoulder became unhappy.
He stretched out his little paws towards Jiang Aiguo and whimpered dissatisfyingly, seeming angry.
Jiang Feng laughed and calmed the bun.
This little guy was not bad, even knowing to protect him.
"Humph, where did you get this panda from? Don't you know it's a nationally protected animal?"
Jiang Aiguo put down his cane and glanced at the bun.
As the village chief, he of course was educated and knew the preciousness of the giant panda.
He just didn't expect Jiang Feng to actually bring one back.
"Uncle, I picked him up on the way. This little guy took a liking to me."
Jiang Feng chuckled.
Jiang Aiguo glanced a few more times and kept silent.
"Alright old big, little Feng came back with difficulty, why be so harsh with him?"
"Little Feng have you eaten? Come to my home. I'll ask your Third Aunt cook for you."
Third Uncle said benevolently looking at Jiang Feng holding a cane.
Beside them Jiang Aiguo snorted and left.
"Go settle down. Come eat at my home tonight."
Jiang Aiguo's tone was unquestionable.
Third Uncle grinned toothlessly. "Old big is hard on the outside soft inside. Go settle down first little Feng, then go to your uncle's for dinner tonight."
Third Uncle patted Jiang Feng's shoulder.
Jiang Feng nodded heavily, knowing they cared about him.
After bidding the seniors, Jiang Feng brought bun towards his home.
Jiang Feng thought his house would be run-down after years of absence.
Unexpectedly other than some dust, the house remained intact.
His uncle's family must have come often to clean the yard.
"Sigh, I won't leave again after coming back this time."
Jiang Feng sat on the doorsill, stroked bun's little head and sighed.
At this time Jiang Feng also had a firm belief.
He would make Longmen Village prosperous again!
He believed with the system, this wish would definitely come true!
............
Just then, his phone rang interrupting his thoughts.
Seeing an unfamiliar number, Jiang Feng picked up.
"Hello, who's this?"
"Hello, is this Mr. Jiang Feng from Hu Yu Livestream?" I'm with the Taibai Mountain Forestry Bureau."
Hearing the other's identity Jiang Feng laughed. He didn't expect the forestry bureau to contact so soon.
The bureau was in charge of managing all land animals in Hua Country.
Water animals were governed by the Fisheries Bureau.
"Yes I'm Jiang Feng."
"Mr. Jiang, I'm calling to inquire about the wild panda with you. Also, I heard you want to adopt this panda, right?"
The forestry staffer chattered a lot.
"Yes I do want to adopt the panda. I was going to contact you about it, didn't expect you to call me first."
Jiang Feng said with a laugh.
"Then you know the procedure to adopt wildlife right?"
The staffer asked.
"Yes I do. Just background checks."
Jiang Feng was confident he could pass.
"Alright, we'll do our investigation and notify you tomorrow. We'll also examine the panda. Please keep the panda properly."
The phone said.
"Ok sounds good."
Jiang Feng agreed readily then hung up.
He put away his phone and beckoned bun with his hand.
"Let's go bun, time to scrounge dinner!"
