After a night's train ride, we arrived at the station at around seven o'clock the next day. Fortunately, with Zhang Yunfei with us, Xiaowei was able to sleep for a while, so she was in good spirits.
After getting off the bus, at a small stall outside the station, Ling Xiaowei treated Zhang Yunfei to a bowl of wontons. Zhang Yunfei was unwilling to let Xiaowei treat him, but Xiaowei insisted.
She looked at her luggage, wondering where she could sleep peacefully.
The two of them had breakfast and continued to take the bus. After getting on the bus, it took more than two hours to reach their hometown in the countryside.
As we get closer and closer to home, Xiaowei becomes more and more anxious.
Zhang Yunfei wanted to find something to talk to Xiaowei several times, but when he saw Xiaowei's gloomy look, he shut up and said nothing.
We followed Xiaowei in silence until the car stopped at the intersection of our hometown.
"We're here! Master, stop the car!" Ling Xiaowei shouted.
A beat faster than Zhang Yunfei, Zhang Yunfei closed his open mouth. When the car stopped, he took his luggage and got out of the car with Xiaowei.
At this moment, on the side of the road, Yao Hong was riding a tricycle from the factory, waiting at the intersection.
"Xiaowei! This way!" Yao Hong shouted happily.
"Aunt Hong, how did you know I was coming back at this time!" Ling Xiaowei had already prepared to walk back. It would take more than half an hour to walk back from the intersection.
Someone has come to pick me up now. It won't take ten minutes on the way.
Behind the car, Jia Jia smiled and sat on a mat made of rags, raising her head and looking curiously at the two people in front of her.
When Ling Xiaowei saw Jia Jia, she happily stepped forward and touched Jia Jia's little head, and said with a smile: "Jia Jia, I am sister Xiaowei, please call me sister."
Jia Jia looked at Ling Xiaowei with particularly curious eyes, and then lowered her head shyly, unwilling to call anyone.
"Let me ride the car! Aunt Hong, you sit in the back." Zhang Yunfei put his luggage in the back of the car and asked Yao Hong to take the initiative.
"Can you ride a tricycle?" Yao Hong said uneasy.
Zhang Yunfei looked embarrassed, shook his head and said: "I've never ridden before, but it shouldn't be difficult!"
"Forget it. People who have never ridden before are not easy to hold their heads. You and Xiaowei sit in the back, let me ride!" Yao Hong pointed to the back of the tricycle. There were also two bicycles placed in the car.
A small wooden stool was obviously specially prepared for the two of them.
Ling Xiaowei had climbed up, sat down, and picked up Jia Jia in her arms.
The little guy is chubby, soft in his arms, and very cute.
Zhang Yunfei hesitated for a moment and sat in the back of the car. He was actually quite embarrassed to sit in the back because he often saw people using this car to drag pigs in the village.
Now that he was sitting in this car, he felt like a pig.
"You guys sit tight! I'm leaving!" Yao Hong shouted, and then started the car. Now the car is an electric car with the battery pressed.
When it started, the force was quite strong. The car rushed forward. Zhang Yunfei was startled and grabbed the handle tightly. Ling Xiaowei hugged Jia Jia with one hand and had already firmly grasped the railing of the car with the other.
, so it’s quite stable.
However, Zhang Yunfei fell off his stool and looked a little embarrassed.
"Brother Yunfei, are you okay?" Ling Xiaowei asked worriedly.
"It's okay, it's okay. It's my first time riding in this car, and the inertia is quite big." Zhang Yunfei smiled, feeling a little embarrassed in front of Xiaowei.
He sat firmly on the stool again.
The car drove much more steadily, Xiaowei hugged Jia Jia and laughed.
The car quickly moved from the main road to the country road. The dirt roads in this village were very muddy. Once on the muddy road, the car seemed to be dancing, and the people staggered around. Zhang Yunfei almost saw Xiaowei.
About to fall out, she stretched out her long arms and caught Xiaowei and the little Jiajia in her arms.
"This road is really bumpy!" Zhang Yunfei said with lingering fear.
Ling Xiaowei was also startled. She was in danger just now. "Thank you, Brother Yunfei." If Zhang Yunfei hadn't held her back, she would have flown out.
"Why are you being so polite to me? You are my junior sister. If I don't take good care of you, my grandfather will not let me go." Zhang Yunfei put his arm around Xiaowei's shoulders and patted her comfortingly.
"You two should take care of each other! This road is too bumpy." Yao Hong shouted loudly from the front.
Zhang Yunfei nodded and said: "Don't worry!"
Ling Xiaowei hugged Jia Jia tightly, holding onto the railing obediently with one hand, while Zhang Yunfei held her shoulder tightly with one hand. The two of them seemed to be sitting in a small boat on the turbulent sea, supporting each other.
A poor man.
This is so messy! It almost makes all the internal organs fly out.
Why didn't it feel so obvious before? I just thought it was fun before.
Zhang Yunfei originally thought it was too embarrassing to ride in this car, but now he doesn't feel embarrassed at all, and finds it quite interesting. He is very happy to be able to protect sister Xiaowei like this.
The little girl is really too delicate and needs to be protected well.
After the car got onto a flatter gravel road, it finally became less bumpy.
Zhang Yunfei hesitated for a moment and silently let go of his hand. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He looked at the house in front of him and said with infinite emotion: "I feel timid near home, but my hometown is better!"
"Yes, the scenery in my hometown is still beautiful." Ling Xiaowei looked at the green mountains in the distance. The mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
"Oh, it's Xiaowei who's back!" A villager saw Xiaowei on the road and shouted in surprise.
Ling Xiaowei didn't recognize who the other party was, but she still smiled politely and nodded: "Yes!"
"Go back and take a look! Something happened to your family." The villager shouted from behind.
Yao Hong said angrily: "This Aunt Qian is just a bad talker. She goes around talking about things that will bring bad luck to the factory. Xiaowei, don't pay attention to her in the future."
"Oh!" Ling Xiaowei nodded, then quietly pushed Zhang Yunfei and whispered: "Do you know that old woman just now?"
"I don't know." Zhang Yunfei said honestly. He didn't know most of the people in the village. Except for his own neighbors, relatives and classmates, he knew them.
At that time, if Xiaowei hadn't taken the initiative to come to the stadium to talk to him, he wouldn't have known Xiaowei!
In a few years, the dark and skinny little girl has grown into a fair and beautiful older girl.
Zhang Yunfei glanced at Ling Xiaowei quietly and felt in a daze, feeling a little contemptuous of his impure thoughts. She was a little sister! She was still in junior high school!
What are you thinking!
Zhang Yunfei shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Brother Yunfei, why are you laughing?" Ling Xiaowei asked curiously.
"It's nothing. I arrived at my house earlier. I'll go back first. Come to me if you need anything." After Zhang Yunfei finished speaking, he said to Yao Hong in front of him: "Aunt Hong, I'll get off at the intersection ahead."
