Zhao Qingjie thought for a while, "Dad, it will take a few days before I can leave, and the house will need to be cleaned up for two days."
Zhao Tian was anxious, "Then hurry up. Let's go back quickly."
Zhao Qingjie has been cleaning up for two days. He picked up the tools and supplies at home and took them away. Qi Xuemei also took some leftovers back to her parents' house.
Zhao Qingxiang and Sun Yun didn't think anything of it. They never thought about taking advantage. Even if he gave it, they thought of converting it into money and giving it to him. It would be just fine if they didn't give it. Sun Yun didn't want the rags.
Zhao Xiaojing was not happy. Why didn't she give it to herself? So when her second brother was cleaning up, she took Xu Hongbing home. Since the second brother's heart was for his father-in-law's family, then let his father-in-law's family come to help.
Zhao Tian didn't have the energy to care about this now. They could do whatever they wanted, as long as they left quickly. He felt sick and didn't want to stay here for a while.
They couldn't leave directly yet and had to pick up Zhixue.
In three days, Zhao Qingjie packed up everything.
However, there were still many salutes, so he went to find Xu Hongbing and accompany them to see them off.
Xu Hongbing had no objection and readily agreed, but Zhao Xiaojing was unwilling.
"Second brother, why didn't your brothers-in-law go to see you off?"
Only then did Zhao Qingjie realize, "We don't need them."
"Yes, this is not a good thing."
"Your second sister-in-law will go back with you. She may never come back in this life. She will give her mother's family something."
Xu Hongbing pulled Zhao Xiaojing away, even if he gave her those broken things, she didn't want them.
Zhao Qingjie also thought about it on the way back. He had ignored this and left nothing for his eldest brother and second sister. Forget it. The remaining things would be used later.
He will leave tomorrow. Zhao Qingxiang asked them to come over for dinner today, and of course Zhao Xiaojing's family was also included.
Sun Yun is not a stingy person. His father-in-law is about to leave, so he doesn’t have to worry about it in the future. He is not stingy about inviting him to dinner. The chicken is killed and the fish is stewed.
Zhao Qingxiang lit the fire and said, "Xiaoyun, Dad is leaving soon. Can you give Dad a hundred yuan? We won't be able to take care of him in the future." He sighed after speaking.
Sun Yun was really reluctant to give up one hundred yuan. How could she earn this one hundred yuan? And it was not like her father-in-law didn't have money in his hands. He had to give it to him for whatever he was doing, so she didn't say anything.
Zhao Qingxiang also knew that his wife was unwilling.
"Xiaoyun, we may not be able to go back for ten or eight years. After all, he is my father."
"Okay, you can give it if you want. I don't know anything else. How long will I have to work for this hundred yuan?"
Zhao Qingxiang also knew it, but he didn't allow himself to overcome this hurdle in his heart.
Both families came over and ate together.
Zhao Qingjie still took out a hundred yuan and said, "Dad, keep this money. We may not see each other when we are far apart in the future."
Zhao Tian sighed, "Yes, you may not be able to see me even if I die."
He didn't refuse and just pretended.
Zhao Xiaojing also took out twenty yuan, "Dad, our life is not as good as that of my elder brother. I can use this money and you can buy some delicious food yourself."
Zhao Tian did not expect that his second daughter would give him any money. Although it was small, it was given after all.
"Okay, actually you two should think about it, it's better for us to make money here for a few years, but who knows what will happen in the future?
If it's not good here, you can go back. Now Yuanyuan can still do her job and arrange work."
The brother and sister both nodded. Now the old man can say whatever he wants, but it's better not to be stubborn.
The lunch was quite satisfying, including fish, meat, and egg custard. Sun Yun was really not stingy.
In the afternoon, the six of them went to collect An Lixia's ashes and placed them in the yard when they came back.
Zhao Tian looked at the jar. He used to be warmly accompanying his wife, but now there is only a small jar left.
He wiped the outside and found a piece of cloth to wrap it up. He wanted to take his wife back.
Qi Xuemei's things have also been packed up. She has not spoken for the past few days. Everyone knows that she is in a bad mood, and no one pays attention to her.
We still had dinner at Zhao Qingxiang's house in the evening. They were about to leave after dinner.
Zhao Tian finally got on the car going back. He had mixed emotions and was thinking about what happened after the children came over.
I didn’t leave successfully either. But I thought it would be nice to be able to go back.
Although I don’t have a wife anymore, I still have familiar people. When I return to the village, I have people chatting with me. It’s not like here, where I can’t say a word sometimes.
Two donkey carts arrived in the city on the afternoon of the next day.
Zhao Qingjie went to buy a train ticket. It would take another three hours to get a train. This was already very good. They were going to City L today. If they wanted to go back, they had better wait two days to get a ticket.
Zhao Tian asked his son and son-in-law to send them to the car before leaving.
"Boss, go call Xiaoli and the others and tell them the time to pick us up at the train station."
Zhao Qingxiang went to make a phone call, and Zhao Qingjie followed him. He called his little sister directly.
Zhao Yanli heard that her father and her second brother's family were coming over.
"Brother, I understand, I will pick you up."
Zhao Qingjie answered the phone. "Xiao Li, help Zhixue drop out of school. Then help go to the train station and ask if there is a day when the train can leave."
Zhao Yanli had no objection, "Okay, I understand, I will arrange it."
After get off work in the evening, she went to her eldest sister's house, and the two sisters went to find some children.
Zhixue heard that he was leaving. He was very depressed and didn't want to leave.
He had a feeling that he might not be able to go to school when he returned.
"Auntie, auntie. Can I not leave?"
The two sisters were also in a bad mood, and they didn't know how to persuade Zhixue because they were too far away.
"Zhixue, there is a school at home."
"Just stay away, but you must hold on."
Zhixue shed tears, he really didn't want to leave.
Xiaoling and the others looked on, not knowing how to comfort her.
"Auntie, old aunt, please don't ask me to withdraw from school. I want to wait for my parents to come over and discuss with them whether I can not go back?"
Both sisters nodded, agreeing to the child's request.
Zhao Qingxiang and Xu Hongbing escorted them to the train. They saluted too much, and Zhiping was there. There were still traffickers and thieves on the train, so they gave them instructions several times.
After seeing them off, the two of them hurried home without rest. Zhao Qingxiang was worried about his pregnant wife at home.
On the train, Zhao Tian just held the jar of his wife's ashes and didn't care about anything else. This made Qi Xuemei very angry. She thought bitterly that she would not serve him in the future. It was really irritating for him to act like this.
