Olivorddenly, Henry snapped out of it.
He shook his head, looked around, then at Sonya.
"I... | thought | saw a path. I..." He caught his breath."What happened tojust now?"
Sonya hugged him. "Nothing. It's nothing."
"Nothing,
nothing, she repeated. in her head, trying
trying to reassure herself.
Back in the car, Henry was back to normal.
Following the villager's directions, they rejoined the main road. Using the GPS, they discovered. they were near
Qing Shi Town, where her aunt and uncle lived. They decided to go to Qing Shi Town, to visit the elders and enjoy
a mini-vacation.
Remembering the chaotic phone call, Sonya. called her aunt beforehand.
Her aunt was thrilled. "Sonya and her husband are coming to see us!"
Her uncle's voice followed, Go hand kill a chicken. We'll have chicken stew tonight."
"Oh dear, it's too late for that."
"Nonsense, it'll be quick."
"Killing it, plucking it, and stewing it... by the tit's ready, the kids will be starving."
""You're just slow."
"Or I'll pull peanuts, and
you cook"
"I can cook, but can "you" carry a bag of peanuts?"
They started arguing. Sonya tried to interrupt, but then Grandma Reynolds chimed in.
"Are you two going to drivecrazy? I'll take care of this. Dongzi (Uncle) cooks. We'll pull the peanuts. Henry
can carry them when he arrives."
They quickly settled the plan, and her aunt hung up. Sonya barely managed a word.
Henry laughed. "No wonder Grandma likes living in town near you two. The three of you must be very lively
together."
Her uncle's field was on the edge of town. Sonya guided Henry onto a small road and parked.
From the edge of the field, they could see her aunt and Grandma Reynolds working.
"Let's go help."

Sonya and Henry went into the field, but Henry tripped on a ridge. Sonya bent over laughing. Henry told her to
stop, but she couldn't. He stormed off, annoyed. Sonya caught up and took his hand.
He was easily appeased and kissed her.
"Are there any haystacks around here?" he asked, smiling slyly

haystack.
Sonya was both shocked and embarrassed, covering her face and kicking him. Henry hugged her, whispering,
"Let's sneak off tonight?"
""You're shameless!"
They reached the peanut drying area, where her aunt and Grandma Reynolds watched them with, knowing
smiles.
Sonya blushed."Are you still harvesting peanuts now?"
"Our trip to the island delayed things," her aunt said, walking over to examine Sonya, confirming she hadn't lost
weight. Then she pulled Sonya over to Grandma Reynolds. Grandma Reynolds looked at Sonya, liking what she
saw. "Sonya, you must have suggested this visit, right?"
"Huh?"
"My grandson is heartless. He wouldn't think of visiting me," Grandma Reynolds said, glaring at Henry.
Henry rolled his eyes and hugged Grandma Reynolds, feigning affection."Grandma, | missed
so much."

Grandma Reynolds was easily appeased. "My dear grandson, | missed you too. Chere, let Grandma kiss
you."
"Ew, don't touch me."
"Get lost! You're getting less lovable as you get
older."
Henry teased his grandmother, then greeted his aunt politely.
His aunt adored him. "Look at this handsome, polite young man. All the girls around here would. line up to marry
him. Sonya is lucky to have snagged him." "She is indeed lucky."
Henry tried to be serious but couldn't help himself. Luckily, his
his aunt laughed.
The peanuts
were dry but still on the vines and needed to be pulled off.
"Don't you have a machine?" Henry asked.
"We do, but we don't have a large harvest. It's quicker to do it by hand," his aunt said.
"The harvest is over, everyone is free. We can chat while working," Grandma Reynolds said, efficiently pulling
peanuts-nothing like a wealthy matriarch.
They filled several bags. Grandma Reynolds asked Henry to carry them to the edge of the field.
His aunt said, "He looks so delicate. He's probably never done manual labor. Can he carry them?" Sonya doubted
it too. "A bag of peanuts is
is heavy. Don't overexert yourself."
Henry was defiant. "You doubt my strength?"
Sonya's mind wandered, and she blushed.
"Why are you blushing? | mean, I've carried bricks on construction sites. You wouldn't be thinking..."

'Shut up!"
Henry chuckled, picked up a bag, and carried it effortlessly.
Watching him, his aunt smiled. "Smart and strong. Sonya won't suffer with him?
smiled."Smart
They used Henry's Rolls-Royce Cullinan to transport the peanuts; there were so many beg the trunk wouldn't
close.
When they returned, the chicken stew was ready.

"You started it."

They were legally married, but they were making out in the car like they were having an affair. It was late, and
the streets were empty.
At the height of their passion, they heard a sound.
"Woof! Woof!"
Sonya jumped, looked out the window, and saw a large tan dog barking at the Henry cursed."Get lost! Don't
