Cheng Tianyuan's face darkened when he heard this, and he lowered his voice: "Don't pay attention to their family's affairs, so as not to cause trouble."
After a pause, he leaned into her ear: "Ouyang Xiang is capable of anything. I went back to the village a while ago and heard the village chief say that when he left the village to go south, he was most likely involved in a murder. He
I used to be a big gangster, so this kind of thing is nothing."
Xue Ling was frightened for a while after hearing this, and whispered: "Fortunately, I didn't take Ouyang Mei directly to the police station."
Cheng Tianyuan patted her shoulder gently and said warmly: "It's very good of you to handle it this way. None of us are evil people, we are all good people. When we see her being tied up, we will naturally feel compassion. Look.
When it’s here, pull it, it’s good.”
"Don't worry." Xue Ling whispered: "I didn't let Ouyang Xiang know that the door next door was open to maintain the situation before his sister left. He came here, but I scolded him away."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded slightly and closed his eyes.
"That's good, just ignore them."
Xue Ling couldn't help but mutter: "When we make money next year, we will buy a new house. I really don't like living with such people."
Cheng Tianyuan quickly agreed and explained: "Two days ago, I called the landlord, Mrs. Gong, to renew the rent for the first three months of next year. I worked hard to avoid having to renew the lease with her."
"Yeah!" Xue Ling smiled and fell asleep in his arms.
…
In the next three days, Cheng Tianyuan still took his old father to the river to work.
Xue Ling stayed at home working as a translator. When he had time, he took Mother Cheng out to buy things for the New Year.
Liu Ying advised: "This is the first time you and A Yuan have returned to your parents' home after getting married. You should prepare some extra things. By the way, you have to buy some pastries here in Rongcheng, and also bring the braised bacon I dried.
.”
Xue Ling couldn't help but nodded and said: "I bought some beef bones, beef and mutton for you and dad. Remember to eat more and drink more, and don't skimp. Dad needs more nutrition to get better.
"
"He has gained a lot of weight recently!" Liu Ying laughed softly and said: "He eats rice and steamed buns every day, meat for every meal, and such delicious soup, which feeds him a lot of weight!" He said
Although he has been a little busy these days, he does not feel tired at all."
Xue Ling smiled happily and said, "That's good! Brother Yuan and I will take the train to the Imperial Capital tomorrow afternoon. If you don't have enough food at home, you have to go to the market to buy it yourself."
"Ouch!" Liu Ying frowned and laughed: "What you bought is enough for us to eat for more than half a month! When you come back, we will definitely not be able to finish it!"
Xue Ling is a lavish shopper, buying a lot of things at a time. She and her wife are always worried about having too much food.
"That's not all!" Xue Ling pointed to the bag on the side and explained: "These are what Brother Ahu gave to you two for the Chinese New Year, keep a piece to eat."
That night, snowflakes were falling outside, and Cheng Tianyuan drove Cheng's father back.
"We've almost finished cooking. Let's leave it to Ahu and Amin." Cheng Tianyuan drank the ginger soup and said warmly: "I will accompany you to buy some gifts tomorrow morning. I will definitely be in time for the two o'clock train in the afternoon."
Xue Ling looked at the snowy street outside the window and said with a smile: "I've been preparing it for the past few days. I packed it in those two bags in the afternoon. Here - over there!"
Cheng Tianyuan raised his eyebrows in surprise and then smiled.
"That's great! I can sleep a little longer tomorrow!"
Xue Ling felt slightly distressed and whispered: "You are indeed very tired recently, I know. Before you can take a breather, you have to accompany me to the imperial capital - ugh!"
Before he finished speaking, Cheng Tianyuan sealed his mouth with a kiss,
He chuckled softly: "I'm not tired. When I think about this store being ours, I feel like I'm full of energy and can't finish it. My dad said he is the same, and he always feels full of hope in his heart.
It’s very enjoyable!”
Xue Ling looked at the way his eyes were shining, and couldn't help but feel full of longing in her heart.
That night, the two took a hot bath and rested early.
Early the next morning, the sun rose outside. The snow last night was not heavy and it melted quickly.
The two had a good night's sleep. They had lunch with Cheng's father and Cheng's mother at noon, and went out with their luggage in high spirits.
Ahu drove a truck and stopped at the street corner and waved to them.
"Ayuan! Sister-in-law! I'm here to take you to the station!"
Cheng Tianyuan and Xue Ling were both surprised and quickly threw their luggage into the back seat.
Ah Hu smiled heartily and said: "There is a seat next door, you can squeeze in."
Cheng Tianyuan got into the car, pulled Xue Ling up with one hand, held her and sat on his lap.
Ah Hu skillfully started the car and explained: "I heard from Ah Yuan that you guys are taking the train at two o'clock in the afternoon, and you have to leave for the station after you have eaten. It happens that I don't have to leave the car today, so I came here to see you off."
Xue Ling quickly thanked him.
Ahu said "Hey!" and said angrily: "Sister-in-law, don't be polite to me! Let's work together in business. If we have money, we can make money together. If we work hard together, we should treat it as a family. There is no need to thank you all day long.
Those who thank you will look alive!"
Xue Ling laughed.
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask: "Ahu, aren't you very busy at the end of the year? Why don't you have to leave the car these days?"
Ahu's face darkened when he heard this, and he whispered: "The owner of this truck is from the west of the city. He has more than a dozen trucks on hand, but he is not very easy to deal with. I heard that there was an accident at home a few days ago, and he didn't even have the money.
I stopped making money and went out in a hurry. I haven’t been in contact with him for a long time and I feel that he is not a good person. I plan to return the car to him in two days and find another car to drive after the Chinese New Year.”
Cheng Tianyuan whispered "Oh" and asked, "What's your name?"
Ahu replied: "My name is Fatty Liu! As his name suggests, he is fat, thick, and black. He also has a bad temper and is not easy to get along with."
Cheng Tianyuan casually advised: "Then drive in someone else's car. You are receiving salary plus share. If your boss is not good, your share will also be affected."
"Yes!" Ahu said: "I will choose a time to return the car tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so I won't mess with him anymore!"
With Ahu picking them up, they arrived at the station quickly.
Xue Ling found a public phone and called her home, saying that they were going to get on the bus and arrive at the Imperial Capital in about two days.
Xue's mother was so happy that she smiled from ear to ear and kept telling them to pay attention to safety on the road. She also said that Xue's father would drive to the station to pick them up.
After waiting at the station for more than half an hour, the train to the imperial capital finally arrived, and the two of them walked onto the platform smoothly.
As the New Year approaches, the train is full of people.
Cheng Tianyuan was tall and strong. He carried two large luggage bags in one hand and held Xue Ling in the other. He easily got into the car door and found a place to put the luggage.
He didn't want Xue Ling to be too bumpy, so he bought two soft sleepers.
"Today is the 27th of the lunar calendar. I should arrive at the Imperial Capital on the evening of the 29th."
Xue Ling looked at the scene passing by outside the window, full of expectation and happiness.
