"Zhiqiu, I don't want to see my mother suffer like this, but you know, your second sister-in-law and I have been making bamboo weaving for half our lives, and the little money we earned was used to support Huang Zhaohuangwen's studies.
Huang Zhao looks like he's in his early 20s and doesn't even have a partner. It's not because he has no money.
Huang Wen will be in his senior year of high school soon, and there is still a long way to go to pay for tuition. Your second sister-in-law and I really can’t afford it."
"Second brother, do you think you can borrow some from my second sister-in-law's family?"
Peng Fang curled her lips secretly, and said with a smile, "Little sister, for thirty or fifty yuan, I can shamelessly talk to my mother's family, but my mother's legs are not worth the money.
ah."
"Second sister-in-law, can you borrow more, preferably around a hundred yuan. The doctor said that if Mom's leg wants to be cured, it will cost her a conservative five hundred yuan. I will find other people to find a solution for the rest."
"Borrow more?"
Peng Fang put down her chopsticks with a bang, and replied with a smile: "You said it very lightly, and you just borrowed a hundred when you opened your mouth. We are all poor people, how can we lend so much spare money to outsiders?"
.”
Huang Jianguo also persuaded Huang Zhiqiu to give up his thoughts, "Zhiqiu, according to me, my mother is already so old, how many years can she live? Even if the leg is cured, what will happen? It's better not to bother and let fate happen.
Bar."
No matter how much Huang Zhiqiu talked, Huang Jianguo and Peng Fang both had the same attitude.
If you don’t need money, there’s no need to talk about borrowing money.
After coming out of Huang Jian's country, seeing Huang Zhiqiu depressed, Yun Mo couldn't help but comfort him.
"Mom, don't worry too much, I will definitely find a way to heal grandma's leg."
Huang Zhiqiu felt slightly comforted by her daughter's sensibleness and filial piety. She reluctantly cheered up and said, "Let's go to your third uncle's house."
"good."
The sun was getting higher and higher, and the sky was getting hotter and hotter, but the direction of walking was getting further and further away from the village, and Yun Mo panicked a little.
"Mom, where does my third uncle's family live?"
"Live in town."
What?
Yun Mo's head was buzzing as if someone had hit her with a stick, "Mom, we're not going to town on foot, are we?"
Huang Zhiqiu looked at her strangely, "How do you want to go if you don't want to walk?"
"..."
Yun Mo was about to cry, "How long will it take to walk 20 miles on two legs?"
"If you walk faster, you can get there in 2 and a half hours."
Seeing that Huang Zhiqiu was serious, Yun Mo almost fainted on the spot.
"Is there no other way to go to town than walking? For example, taking a motorcycle or something."
Seeing his daughter's fair little face turned red by the sun, Huang Zhiqiu felt a touch of guilt and distress on his face.
Just as she was about to comfort her daughter, the roar of a motorcycle suddenly came from behind her.
The mother and daughter looked back in unison.
By coincidence, the man riding the motorcycle happened to be Chen Bin who sent Yun Mo back to the village yesterday.
Chen Bin also recognized the mother and daughter, slowly parked the car in front of them, and greeted them with a smile.
"Sister Qiu, where are you going?"
Huang Zhiqiu: "Going to visit relatives."
Yun Mo: "Go to town."
After hearing the mother and daughter's answers, Chen Bin immediately invited them to get in the car, "Come on, I'll give you a ride. I'm also going to town for a run."
Huang Zhiqiu subconsciously refused: "I accept your kindness. No need. You can get busy."
"Oh, it's okay. The train is still running when it's empty anyway. Uncle Huang gave me two dumplings yesterday, but I didn't even pay for them. They just used them as fare. Come on up."
Yesterday when I gave you the money for the trip, you were not happy about it, but now you are more attentive.
Yun Mo silently cursed. Although it could be seen that the person named Chen had some thoughts about her own mother, Yun Mo couldn't care less about being reserved. If she really had to walk 20 miles to the town, her legs would be useless.
.
"Mom, let's just take the car to the town and take care of Brother Chen's business."
Yun Mo originally wanted to call her uncle, but then Chen Bin would be the same generation as Huang Zhiqiu, so she changed her name to brother, which would make Chen Bin one generation shorter than Huang Zhiqiu.
Huang Zhiqiu hesitated.
On the one hand, she knew that her daughter had grown up in the city and was spoiled, so she could not bear the hardship of traveling long distances.
But on the other hand, she is a single mother and does not want to have too much contact with an older bachelor like Chen Bin for fear of spreading rumors.
Yun Mo was a soul from the 21st century, and could not understand Huang Zhiqiu's mood of avoiding suspicion. She begged a few words in a soft voice, and finally Huang Zhiqiu relaxed.
Taking a car is much easier than walking, and even the bumps make Yunmo feel less unbearable.
In less than half an hour, the mother and daughter arrived in the town.
After Huang Zhiqiu's repeated insistence, Chen Bin finally accepted only a token payment of two yuan for gas.
"Sister Qiu, I usually do work near the station. If you want to use a car when you go back, just come to me."
"Okay, please."
"Don't be too polite. It's the duty of fellow villagers to take care of each other."
After Chen Bin rode away on his motorcycle, Yun Mo asked casually: "Is he also from our village?"
"No, he lives in Shangcun, our place is Xiaocun."
"Then what's his name?"
"Chen Bin."
"So is he married?"
"not yet."
"How old is he this year? He's not married yet?"
"I'm not sure. It should be less than 30."
After learning Chen Bin's true age, Yun Mo was a little surprised.
Maybe it was due to the exposure to the weather, but Chen Bin looked a little older. She thought she was more than 30, but it turned out that she was not yet 30.
This era is not as open as later generations. The relationship between siblings is still subject to the test of the world, and Huang Zhiqiu is already 37, which is more than a little older than Chen Bin.
Thinking about it, Yun Mo couldn't help but look at her mother carefully.
Although he is middle-aged, his skin is fair and smooth, without a single wrinkle, nor any ugly sunburn or freckles. His figure is well-proportioned and slender under the floral shirt. When the two of them walk together like this, they don't look like mother and daughter at all, but like sisters.
.
No wonder Chen Bin is so attentive to his mother.
—
The mother and daughter walked outside Huang Jianye's small courtyard and found that the courtyard door was locked. Apparently no one was home.
"Your third uncle should be at work. Let's go to the wine shop to find him."
"good."
Arriving at the door of the wine shop, Huang Zhiqiu asked someone to help call Huang Jianye out.
"Sister, why are you here?"
Huang Jianye wiped his face and neck with a sweat towel while looking at Yun Mo, "Who is this?"
"This is Momo. She came to see me from Jiang City. She just arrived yesterday. Momo, my name is Third Uncle."
"Third uncle."
"Um."
Huang Yao was not Huang Zhiqiu's daughter, so Huang Jianye naturally knew about it. After Huang Yao ran away, he asked someone to look for her, but no one was found.
Perhaps because of their first meeting, Huang Jianye's attitude towards Yun Mo was not very warm.
"Sister, what's the matter with you coming?"
Huang Zhiqiu handed over the candy in his hand, "I'm just bringing Momo here to recognize me. This is the candy Momo bought. You can take it back and give it to Huang Ying and Huang Huang."
"Okay, then I'm welcome."
