Nine hundred and ninetieth chapters homeland is hard to leave
Chapter 993: Hard to leave homeland
Early the next morning, Chai Yan and his party packed their belongings and got ready to set off.
Liu Hongxuan and Zhang Youde also came to see him off. When leaving, Zhang Xiuying shed tears again.
"Liu Lieutenant, farewell!" Chai Yan said goodbye with his hands crossed.
"Master Chai, I wish you a safe journey!" Liu Xiaowei replied with cupped hands.
Chai Yan smiled and nodded, turned around and shouted to Yu Tie: "Let's go!"
Immediately afterwards, the sound of a horse whip was heard, and the carriage began to move slowly.
Since there were two more people, Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun sat next to Yu Tie, while Chai Yan, Hang Baiqiu, Zhang Xiuying and Hong Biao sat in the carriage.
As the carriage continued to drive along the path beside Lintai Mountain, Guan Maochun suddenly asked: "Fourth brother, how do you think the eldest brother and the third brother are doing these days?"
Cheng Jiu turned around and said, "What are you asking? Brother and the others don't have to run around. They can eat well and sleep well in the county government office every day. They must be very comfortable!"
Yu Tie nodded while driving, making a "hmm" sound of approval.
When Guan Maochun thought that this was indeed the case, he immediately smiled and said: "Yes, the eldest brother and the third brother must have gained weight because they are so comfortable... By the way, the fourth brother has been out for so long and I haven't seen him yet.
Did you say you missed Miss Situ?"
"Go, go, I want you to talk more!" Cheng Jiu glared and spat.
Although Miles Jiu hasn't said anything about Situ Jing these days, he actually misses her very much. Sometimes in his dreams, he has returned to Situ Jing, and the two of them are still rubbing each other's ears, which is extremely sweet.
Guan Maochun suddenly shouted: "Second brother, look, fourth brother is blushing, haha, he is blushing..."
Yu Tie turned around and saw that Cheng Jiu's cheeks were indeed slightly red, and he immediately smiled happily.
Outside the car, Cheng Jiu and the other three were joking and joking, but the atmosphere inside the car was very serious.
Hang Baiqiu sat next to Zhang Xiuying and asked seriously: "Xiuying, how will you live alone with your second child and third sister?"
Zhang Xiuying said with a strong smile: "Sir Hang, you don't have to worry about this. I have hands and feet. As long as I work harder in the future, I won't go hungry."
Hang Baiqiu said: "Xiuying, you are talking lightly. Do you know how difficult it is for a woman to take care of two children?"
"I know, Sir Hang, I'm not afraid of hardship..." Zhang Xiuying understood.
Hang Baiqiu couldn't bear it and said, "Xiuying, how about this? You, Erwa and Sanmei all come with me. We return to the capital, and you will be part of my family from now on!"
"Sir Hang, Xiuying appreciates your kindness, but this is my hometown after all, and I...I don't want to leave here." Zhang Xiuying suddenly became sad.
But Hang Baiqiu did not give up and kept persuading Zhang Xiuying, hoping that she could take her children back to the capital with him and stay at her house to work in the future, so that the second child and the third sister could get a better life and education.
But after all the talking, Zhang Xiuying still didn't agree to Hang Baiqiu. In the end, she just shook her head silently and became silent.
Chai Yan couldn't help but said: "Sir Hang, since she has made her decision, we should not try to persuade her anymore. It is human nature that it is difficult to leave our homeland!"
Hang Baiqiu said anxiously: "What she said is true, but she is alone. She has to make money to support the family and take care of the children. How can she be so busy?"
Zhang Xiuying said: "It's okay, Sir Hang. The second baby and the third sister are all sensible and well-behaved children. They are well taken care of."
Chai Yan thought for a while and said: "Let's do this. When I return to Hukou Town, I will ask shopkeeper Wu to help you find a job. When you are usually busy, ask him to help take care of the second baby and the third baby.
sister."
When Zhang Xiuying heard this, she immediately became happy and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Chai, thank you very much!"
Suddenly, Hang Baiqiu stretched out his hand to Chai Yan and said, "Lend me a hundred taels."
Chai Yan was stunned for a moment, but immediately took out a one hundred tael silver note and handed it to Hang Baiqiu.
Hang Baiqiu took the banknote and handed it to Zhang Xiuying. Zhang Xiuying was so frightened that she quickly pushed it away and shook her head vigorously to express that she could not accept it.
Hang Baiqiu was a little unhappy and said: "Zhang Xiuying, this money is not only for you, but also for the second baby and third sister. If they call me aunt, I can't watch them suffer, so take it quickly!"
After saying that, Hang Baiqiu forcefully stuffed the banknote into Zhang Xiuying's hand.
Zhang Xiuying looked at the words "one hundred taels" on the bank note and said in a trembling voice: "Sir Hang, even if what you said is true, there is no need to give so much. One hundred taels of notes...
.....I, I...I don’t even know where to go to change it?”
"It's okay. When we arrive in Hukou Town later, I'll help you go to the bank to exchange them for small denominations." A smile appeared on Hang Baiqiu's face again.
"Hey! Thank you, Sir Hang, thank you, Mr. Chai. I will never be able to repay you for your great kindness in my next life!" Zhang Xiuying said excitedly.
--------------------------
The road back to Hukou Town is almost smooth. We started in the morning and arrived at the southern entrance of the town shortly after noon.
As soon as he entered Hukou Town, Chai Yan asked Yu Tie to drive straight to Wu Sansheng's home so that the child and mother could meet and reunite earlier.
At this time, Wu Sansheng was still busy in Huichun Hall, and there were only Wu Sansheng's wife and children at home.
Hearing the knock on the door, Wu Sansheng's wife hurriedly ran to open the door.
"Isn't this Mr. Chai? Are you back?" Mrs. Wu Sansheng recognized Chai Yan and the others at a glance, and her expressions suddenly looked very surprised.
Chai Yan smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, I just came back. Come and see the child."
While Wu Sansheng's wife welcomed everyone into the courtyard, she turned back and shouted into the house: "Second son, third sister, come out quickly!"
Soon, the second baby and the third sister came out of the house. The two children saw Hang Baiqiu for the first time and immediately shouted happily: "Aunt Qiu!"
After saying that, the two children flew onto Hang Baiqiu's lap. Hang Baiqiu knelt down and hugged the two children, very happy.
Immediately afterwards, Hang Baiqiu said to the child: "Look, who did Aunt Qiu bring back?"
With that said, Hang Baiqiu pointed to Zhang Xiuying behind him.
From the moment she followed everyone into the courtyard and heard Mrs. Wu Sansheng calling her second baby and third sister, Zhang Xiuying's tears began to flow. When Hang Baiqiu pointed at her, Zhang Xiuying had completely become a tearful person, but she was crying.
No sound came out.
"The second baby, the third sister..."
Zhang Xiuying's voice was shaking very hard, and she tried hard to smile on her tear-stained face, but because she was so emotional, she failed every time she smiled.
The second baby and the third sister were stunned when they saw their mother actually appearing in front of them, but after they were stunned, they rushed over together, hugged their mother and started crying...
Such a touching scene also made Hang Baiqiu's nose start to feel sore again.
