Chapter 1020 The year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Chu Chen nodded after listening: "Yes, it's time to gather them here."
"My lord, nowadays high-speed rail and other things are very convenient, and the whole world is connected."
"Sisters, the children have all achieved great results. Let's issue an order to bring them all back so the whole family can have a lively celebration!"
"Okay, I'll listen to Qinglian."
After saying that, Chu Chen turned and left.
Then he summoned Steward Wu and instructed him, "There's something I need you to do."
After saying that, Chu Chen waved his hand, took out a tablet, opened a video, and handed it to him.
"Find a similar hilltop in the shortest amount of time and build me an identical village."
The video Chu Chen showed was of the Chu Family Village that he had created earlier.
Chu Chen originally thought of Mashan Village, but considering that there are so many people who are not from Mashan Village, it would be better to use Chu Family Village instead.
If these people are all coming back, then let them feel like they're coming home.
Ever since the Great Xia was submerged by the flood, these people have been following me around, even though their material life is quite abundant.
But in the end, Chu Family Village was the place that brought them peace.
So let's treat this as a centennial celebration!
Butler Wu nodded and took the tablet to go prepare.
There were many androids left in the warehouse; building a village was too easy.
Six months later, Chu Chen, along with Li Qinglian and Butler Wu, drove directly to the outskirts of the city.
About an hour later, the door that came into view made Chu Chen and Li Qinglian fall silent.
The three large characters "Chu Family Village" stood out prominently.
“Husband, this… Qinglian feels like she has returned home again.”
Li Qinglian didn't know the meaning of "time travel." If she did, she would have immediately exclaimed that she had time traveled.
Chu Chen was also very shocked, not because Chu Family Village was a one-to-one replica.
Shockingly, Butler Wu arranged for Chu Family Village to be located right next to his own village in modern society.
He didn't understand what Li Qinglian was saying; instead, he stared blankly in the direction of his former village.
"My husband... my husband, what's wrong?"
"Ah...it's nothing, I was just looking around and got a little mesmerized!"
After saying that, Chu Chen stepped on the gas and drove them into Chu Family Village.
Then they went directly to the largest villa and led Li Qinglian and Butler Wu inside.
Looking around, Chu Chen smiled at Butler Wu.
But she couldn't help but ask, "Butler Wu, did you choose this location intentionally, or what?"
"Young master, after our investigation, we found this site to be the most suitable for a one-to-one replica, so we chose this location!"
Chu Chen nodded after listening and then ignored him.
Instead, he went straight into his study.
All of this must be a coincidence, but how could there be such a coincidence!
It seems I need to find time to visit my own village.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen felt a strong desire, so he walked out of the study, greeted Li Qinglian, and drove out of Chu Family Village.
After reaching the main road outside, he turned and headed straight for the village where he used to live.
Having traveled through so many years, I wonder if this village still looks the same as it did.
If not, then where is one's own grave?
With these thoughts in mind, Chu Chen's speed increased dramatically.
A short while later, they entered the village.
"This is Widow Wang's house!"
"Is this Zhang Wei's house?"
As he got closer to home, Chu Chen's excitement grew.
Chu Chen parked the car in front of a two-story bungalow and went straight inside.
Seeing that everything remained unchanged, Chu Chen went directly into his previous room.
Looking at everything familiar inside, suddenly, a wave of sorrow washed over me.
Yes, he was thinking back to those days.
Sitting on the bed, Chu Chen took out a cigarette, lit it, and then walked to a desk next to it.
Opening the drawer and looking at everything he had treasured inside, Chu Chen suddenly felt his eyes well up with tears.
Chu Chen stayed inside until nightfall before leisurely emerging.
Then he climbed into the car, stepped on the gas, and drove out of the village.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar village in the rearview mirror.
Chu Chen grinned: "For misfortune, this is a kind of luck!"
Indeed, compared to the army of time travelers, he was able to see his home from his memories after death, which was a kind of luck, wasn't it?
However, this is just a house and a memory.
Because there are no longer any familiar faces in the village.
At this moment, he felt like a wanderer who had been working far away from home for many years, returning to his hometown.
The village remains the same, but the world here has changed beyond recognition!
This made him think of a phenomenon in modern society.
Those hollow villages, those villages deep in the mountains that have been slowly abandoned by young people.
Perhaps years from now, those who left the village will return to their hometown in their twilight years and feel the same way I do now.
However, one must always look forward.
Now that time travel has become a fact, there's no need to dwell on the past.
The future is bright!
When Chu Chen returned to the villa, Li Qinglian had already finished washing up, and a table full of dishes was being set out in the dining room.
"My lord, Qinglian thought you had disappeared again, so she ate first. You rest for a bit, and I'll go heat up some more food for you!"
"It's okay, no need to heat it up, I'll just have a bite!"
After saying that, Chu Chen sat down at the dining table, picked up his chopsticks, and started eating.
That night, he drank a bottle of Maotai, which he considered a farewell to the obsession in his heart.
He didn't go looking for his grave, and most likely he won't find it.
Time seemed to have stopped the moment he crossed over; how could his grave be here?
It's like some people are alive, but they're already dead; who knows what happens after death?
At night, Chu Chen, like a child without a home, held Li Qinglian tightly and slept peacefully!
Li Qinglian also noticed that Chu Chen was different today, but since Chu Chen didn't say anything, she didn't ask.
He just needs to hold me, and I just need to give him enough warmth.
Perhaps he misses his parents!
Nothing happened that night, and the next day, Chu Chen left the villa early in the morning.
Feeling the fresh mountain air, I shook my head to get rid of all those things.
Suddenly, the headlights of a car in the distance headed straight for Chu Family Village. Upon seeing this, Chu Chen smiled warmly.
Who says we don't have a home? Our family has come back.
