The next morning.

Lu Yong sent Lu Yang's car over, and Meng Xiaopeng also came over by bus.

As the boss and CEO, Huang Bingqian gave them both salaries and New Year red envelopes to repay the busy work of the past two months.

Lu Yong and Meng Xiaopeng refused to take it.

In their eyes, it was inappropriate for Lu Yang to give them some shares in the Taobao store and then ask for salary.

Lu Yang smiled and said: "Take it if it's given to you. I won't give you any salary from next year and you will all be paid according to the dividends."

Only then did Lu Yong and Meng Xiaopeng accept the red envelope.

There is a conservative estimate of two thousand yuan in it.

After everything was cleaned up, Lu Yang drove them away from Bingzhou.

Lu Yong can also drive, but the highway is busy with large vehicles at the end of the year and the road is icy. For safety reasons, Lu Yang decided to drive by himself.

Huang Bingqian was sitting in the passenger seat, responsible for answering Lu Yang's phone calls and replying to some important text messages.

Lu Yong and Meng Xiaopeng were sitting in the back row, and they began to discuss how to spend this winter vacation.

It feels so good to have money in my pocket. In the past, Meng Xiaopeng always asked for money from her family. Sometimes, if she spent money indiscriminately, her mother would always ask in detail.

Lu Yang asked them: "After the New Year, you three will return to Bingzhou early, do you all know that?"

Lu Yong and Meng Xiaopeng nodded.

In the past, Meng Xiaopeng did not return to school until the 15th day of the first lunar month. Now that he has his own business, he will return to Bingzhou on the sixth day of the lunar month, and his Taobao store will officially open on the eighth day of the lunar month.

Lu Yong has become accustomed to Lu Yang's work arrangements in the past two years. For no other reason than that, the money he pays to his family every year far exceeds that of all his peers.

This fall, Lu Yong asked his father to renovate the house in his hometown.

From that kind of blue brick house to a brand new red brick house, the cost of building the new house did not even cost Lu Yong a year's salary.

Next, he plans to buy a house in Mingjiang City.

Lu Yang asked: "Brother Yong, are you going to be 23 this year?"

Lu Yong: "Yes."

Lu Yang said with emotion: "It's time to get married. My aunt will probably arrange a blind date for you when I go back this year."

Meng Xiaopeng and Huang Bingqian looked at Lu Yong curiously, making Lu Yong feel a little embarrassed.

Blind date is both new and curious to Meng Xiaopeng.

In the past, Lu Yong might have found a girl from a neighboring village to meet on a blind date, and they would get married and have children without any disagreement.

However, Lu Yong can be regarded as someone who has lived in a big city. He has met countless college students, even master's degrees, and many outstanding girls.

Can he still like those girls from the countryside?

Lu Yong looked out the window at the speeding and retreating scenery, his eyes a little confused.

Let's wait a little longer.

...

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Yang's car drove onto the ramp of Mingjiang River.

Meng Xiaopeng saw the familiar sign at the highway exit: Welcome to Mingjiang!

A sense of intimacy arose in his heart.

Lu Yang drove Meng Xiaopeng and Lu Yong to the city and asked them to take a taxi back.

He wants to send Huang Bingqian back to the village.

Huang Bingqian: "Lu Yang, please take me to the bus station. I'll take the long-distance bus back by myself."

Lu Yang: "How can we do that? I have to send you home safely. By the way, after the Chinese New Year, remember to get a driver's license, buy a car, and try to be my driver."

Huang Bingqian nodded sheepishly.

She always felt that Lu Yang's steps were a little too big and his thinking was too forward.

Female drivers... are incredible to hear in this day and age.

Her way of thinking is still that women cannot serve meals. If Huang Bingqian had not received nine years of compulsory education, she would not dare to serve meals.

Therefore, sometimes education is not to get ahead, but to make you see the world more clearly.

The car was driving on a bumpy country road, with potholes and potholes on the road that had been in disrepair.

Huang Bingqian has walked this road often, and she has long been accustomed to the bumps here.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Yang's car finally drove into the town. It still took more than half an hour to travel from the town to Huang Bingqian's village.

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, the traffic in the town is somewhat congested, and various small businesses and vendors are occupying the roads for business.

Lu Yang's car was stuck here.

Huang Bingqian said: "Lu Yang, just stop here. I'll find a cart to go back by myself."

Lu Yang is worried about Huang Bingqian.

In the past year, Huang Bingqian has changed a lot, whether it is her clothes, appearance or temperament.

Also, she brought a lot of gifts when she came back this time. What if someone covets them? There is an open wilderness from the town to the village.

Lu Yang: "Let me find a cart with you and go back."

He and Huang Bingqian got out of the car.

At this moment, someone from behind shouted: "Sister, sister, brother Lu Yang..."

Lu Yang and Huang Bingqian turned around and saw that it was Huang Bingqian's younger brother Huang Xiaowei. Standing beside him was Huang Bingqian's mother. Apparently they were in town to buy new year's goods.

Lu Yang walked up and greeted them.

Huang's mother was deeply impressed by Lu Yang. If it weren't for Lu Yang's help this summer, her life would have been doomed.

Huang Xiaowei invited Lu Yang to his home for dinner.

Lu Yang said that the car couldn't be driven in and he had to rush home, otherwise it would get later and later and the way back would not be safe.

Huang Bingqian told Lu Yang to drive slowly back.

After Lu Yang greeted them, he drove away.

Huang Bingqian watched Lu Yang's car disappear before reluctantly looking back.

Huang's mother saw all this and sighed in her heart.

From the intimate actions between Lu Yang and her daughter just now, she judged that her daughter's relationship with Lu Yang was unusual and that the two were probably living together.

Lu Yang helped their family a lot, but it was nothing.

Huang's mother's only worry is that Lu Yang and her daughter will not make it to the end, and it will be her daughter who will suffer.

People are selfish and should consider their own children.

Huang Bingqian held her mother's arm affectionately and told her interesting things that happened in Bingzhou.

Huang Xiaowei helped his sister carry her luggage and listened with envy as her sister told those distant stories.

He also wants to go to Bingzhou and see the big cities with his sister. He doesn't want to stay in this barren land forever, generation after generation...

...

When Lu Yang returned home, it was completely dark.

He received a call from his mother.

Shen Lijuan was obviously worried about Lu Yang. She had been driving back since the morning. Normally she should have arrived in the afternoon, but it was already evening and she hadn't arrived yet.

Lu Yang: "Mom, I'm downstairs and I'm parking the car."

Shen Lijuan: "You kid, why did you come back so late?"

After saying that, she didn't even put on her coat and hurried downstairs with a spatula in her hand.

When Lu Yang saw his anxious mother, he stepped forward and gave her a hug.

"Mom, do you miss me?"

"Who missed you? I'm just worried that no one will eat when I cook so much food."

Shen Lijuan was still arrogant, she looked at her son through the street lamp.

Well, he looks a lot more mature, but his eyes are a little tired, probably from driving for too long.

Lu Yang went downstairs after seeing the sweater his mother was wearing. He urged her to go upstairs quickly.

When I returned to my long-lost home, the furnishings in my home were unchanged from before.

Old furniture can last for another three years with repairs and repairs. The only thing in the house that needs to be replaced with new ones should be the sofa cushions.

Shen Lijuan was busy in the kitchen, with several dishes placed on the dining table.

Well, when you come home on the first day of vacation, you will see your enthusiastic mother.

Come on, give me a kiss, and eat whatever you want.

Make you think you are great.

When you are at home on the third day of vacation, you will see your calm mother.

Bring me the blanket and clean the bowl. If you want something to eat, ask your dad.

After Shen Lijuan finished her work, Lu Jianjun also came back.

The family sat at the dining table and started eating.
