The Baojun car was speeding on the highway, heading to Ai Xiangling's home in the mountainous area of the neighboring city. The trunk contained many gifts, which Qiu Yu bought for his apprentice's family, showing the master's deep love.
Sitting in the co-pilot was her apprentice Ai Xiangling, whose elegant dress made her even more beautiful. She was holding a brand-new Apple laptop, which was an unexpected surprise given to her by her master, and she couldn't put it down.
Since he was attending a wedding, Qiu Yu also deliberately put on a crisp suit, looking unique. The two chatted and laughed, and unknowingly, they talked about Ai Xiangling's sister, Ali Jing, who was about to get married.
Due to family difficulties, Ali Jing dropped out of junior high school even though her academic performance was very good, and worked on a chicken farm in the village to support the family and support her younger sister's education. She sacrificed her own future in exchange for Xiang Ling's admission to the medical school.
Stay and work hard in the city.
Talking about these things, Ai Xiangling's eyes welled up with tears, and she whispered: "My sister is smarter than me. If our family conditions were better, she could have passed the exam, but now she will stay in the mountains forever and suffer."
Qiu Yu reached out and patted his apprentice on the shoulder, comforting him and said, "Don't be sad. As long as you live happily, life will be the same wherever you live. If you learn medical skills well, you will be able to do so in the future. Just help them more."
Ai Xiangling felt better, "Well, don't worry, Master, I will work hard."
After coming off the highway, we took the road and then drove into the mountainous area. Fortunately, the asphalt road was just built last year and was fairly easy to walk. After more than five hours of driving, climbing over mountains and ridges, we arrived at a remote ravine at around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Xiangyangtun.
This is a poor and backward place with only more than 300 households. Even though most of them are brick and tile houses, there are not many new ones. They are all old and there are some low thatched houses. As for vehicles, the most common ones are horse-drawn carriages and tractors.
, farm trucks and motorcycles are rare, and cars are naturally rare.
Of course, the mountains also have a good side, with beautiful scenery and fresh air. When the brand-new Baojun sedan drove onto the dirt road in the village, the villagers passing back and forth on the road saw it, and their eyes showed surprise. Ai Xiangling actually knew them all.
, popping his head out of the car window from time to time to say hello, second uncle, third aunt, sixth grandpa, etc. The village is not big, so they can all be relatives.
It was found that the beautiful girl sitting in the car was Xiangling from the original village. The villagers were even more surprised, and then responded enthusiastically, "It's Xianglingzi, you just came back..."
In an instant, the news that the two girls from Lao Ai's family had returned in a car spread throughout the village. Behind the Baojun car was a large group of dirty children, shouting happily and chasing after them.
Ai Xiangling's home is located in the northwest corner of the village. It is a large fenced courtyard with three stone thatched houses. It is old and is quite decent after repairs. To the east is a large cornice building with interior decoration.
It was full of yellow and orange corn cobs. To the west was a simple pigsty surrounded by wood, which contained an old black sow and seven or eight black-and-white piglets running around happily. In addition, there were
There are more than a dozen chickens wandering in the yard, and there are puddles of chicken droppings on the ground, a typical farmyard.
In recent years, the life of the Ai family has been better than before. Through the unremitting efforts of the two daughters, most of the foreign debts have been paid off, and there are still some famines left. It is not too much. If they sell corn, they can barely stop it. The eldest daughter
Only then did Li Jing get married with peace of mind. You know, people in the mountains get married very early. A twenty-two-year-old girl like her is already a big girl. Many children of her age are already two or three years old.
On the first day of the big day, relatives and friends came over to join in the fun. The Ai family even killed a big fat pig and served pig meat to the guests. Not long after lunch, dozens of people gathered inside and outside the courtyard to chat. I heard that Xiangling was sitting there
When the car came back, everyone gathered at the gate and waited excitedly.
When the navy blue Baojun car turned around, a sharp-eyed man shouted happily: "Look, the car is coming."
Everyone looked at it and talked happily, "This car is nice, it looks high-end."
"This child Li Jing is very lucky. She can get married in a car. She will definitely have a good life in the future!"
"That girl Xiangling is quite capable and promising..."
Chinese people are very concerned about face, and the same goes for mountain villages. Especially for happy events such as the marriage of a man and a woman, more attention should be paid to it, and floats are particularly important.
The young girl in the red woolen suit is the eldest daughter Ali Jing who is about to get married. She is also quite beautiful and somewhat similar to her younger sister. However, years of hard work has made her look older and she looks slightly older than her actual age.
, her skin has become tanned after being exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, and with some rustic clothes, she looks like a rural girl. When she saw the car, her eyes showed joy, and she felt very satisfied that she could ride in such a float.
If you get married, you will never surrender in this life.
Living in a mountain village for a long time, unable to see the outside world, her vision naturally becomes narrow. Ali Jing does not have too many extravagant hopes. Her idea is very simple, she just hopes that she and her family can live a better life, and that her sister will have a happy ending in the future.
There will be no regrets in life.
The elderly couple next to her are her parents. Her father's name is Ai Jinglin. He suffers from severe rheumatoid disease. He uses crutches and has lost part of his ability to work. Based on this, the burden of the family falls on her mother He Shuqin and her elder sister.
On the daughter's body, the two old men's faces were covered with wrinkles and their weathered look could not be concealed, but they both showed happy smiles.
The Baojun car drove to the front of the courtyard and stopped. The car door opened and two young people got out of it. Ai Xiangling shouted happily: "Dad, Mom, sister..." She stepped forward like a cheerful bird, excited
I hugged my mother and sister. I haven't been home for more than half a year, so I was naturally very happy to see my relatives.
The mother was worried when her son traveled thousands of miles. He Shuqin looked at her little daughter with moist eyes, and her first words were, "Lingzi, you have lost weight!"
"Lingzi, I'm so happy that you can come back on time." Ali Jing held her sister's hand tightly and wouldn't let go. For her and even the entire Ai family, Xiangling carries their hopes.
Seeing that the three of them were together and neglecting the guests, Ai Jinglin hurriedly said: "Lingzi, don't just chatter, hurry up and introduce the distinguished guest to us."
"Oh..." Ai Xiangling then remembered the master behind her. She turned around hurriedly and introduced Qiu Yu to her parents, sister, and many relatives and friends. "This is Dr. Qiu, the boss of our clinic, who specially drove here to congratulate my sister on her wedding. He will also come back tomorrow."
Act as the float driver myself."
Ai Jinglin hurriedly stretched out his calloused hand, shook hands with the other party, and said gratefully: "Boss Qiu, we are so happy and honored that you can come to support us in person. I welcome you on behalf of the whole family and the men, women, and children in the village."
you."
"You're welcome, Xiao Ai is an excellent employee of our clinic. There is a wedding at home, so of course I have to come over. Uncle, you smoke..." Qiu Yu took out a Chinese cigarette from his shoulder bag, offered one to Ai's father, and gave it to Ai's father.
people around.
The knowledgeable person exclaimed: "Zhonghua, it costs more than seventy yuan a box."
Some people were even shocked when they heard this, "Oh my God, you are so expensive, and you only pay more than three yuan for a cigarette!"
I heard that these cigarettes were so expensive that many people were reluctant to smoke them and clamped them on their ears. Some young girls also pressed forward to ask for a cigarette. Qiu Yu refused to refuse anyone who came, and in a short time, he bought several boxes of cigarettes.
When I went out to share the cigarettes, I felt heartbroken when I saw the Ai couple. The daughter’s boss had lost hundreds of dollars just like that!
