Take Arada back to the past
Chapter 251, Robbery on the way
Chapter 251, Robbery on the way
The next morning.
The two of them had just gotten up and were packing their things when they saw Mai coming to the two of them holding a jar.
He also held two wicker branches that had lost their hair.
Mai looked at the two people and whispered: "Auntie, these are the branches that I just polished, and this salt, which I just went to get from Auntie. You can use this to brush your teeth."
Wang Qiuju stopped packing her things.
Take a look.
He smiled and rubbed her head.
"Auntie brought a toothbrush and toothpaste, please put them away."
This thing has not been used before. Normally, it uses plant ash. For more luxury, salt and plant ash are mixed together.
Then he took out two toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Wheat looked at it curiously.
I've heard of this, but never used it.
Seeing her expression, Wang Qiuju smiled: "Have you brushed your teeth? If not, use your aunt's toothbrush. I'll buy it for you later."
Wheat's head shook like a rattle.
"Flashed."
Wang Qiuju nodded, thought of something, and said to Yang Xiaole: "Xiaole, you will go to the consignment point later and buy some paper money and firecrackers. If nothing is sold, forget it. When you come back, we will visit your second uncle. By the way. , buy more, and your grandma, grandpa, and uncle are going to have a look."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole slapped his head.
Why didn't I think of it when I went there yesterday?
He nodded and agreed. "Yeah, I understand. I'll brush my teeth and go over there."
After saying that, I took my toothbrush and toothpaste, scooped up a ladle of water and squatted at the door to brush my teeth.
At this time, it was just dawn, singing was already playing on the loudspeaker, and many people were walking outside the village one after another.
The village is filled with fog.
After brushing his teeth, he immediately ran to the sales outlet.
When they arrived at the place, they saw Li Changshun opening the door of the sales outlet with a tired look on his face.
Naturally, the other party also saw him: "Xiao Le, you're here so early! I even said I would deliver it to you later!"
Yang Xiaole saw the other person's expression and asked curiously, "Oh, I'm here to buy some paper money and firecrackers. Uncle Li...are you...going to the commune by yourself?"
People in rural areas go to bed very early, so yawning basically doesn’t happen.
Hearing this, Li Changshun smiled awkwardly: "Well, I took a trip."
Without saying much, he said with a smile: "Come in, there are paper money and firecrackers. How much do you want?"
Yang Xiaole saw this and followed in.
Followed in.
After coming in, Li Changshun pointed to a flour bag on the counter and said, "Hey, here are the ten kilograms of rice you want. You weigh it. The paper money and firecrackers are there."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole lifted the dough bag a little.
He didn't go to weigh it. He looked at the paper money and said, "Give me 3 knives of paper money and 3 firecrackers. Oh, by the way, give me some incense candles."
I'm going to see my second uncle. My uncle and grandparents who passed away a long time ago will definitely want to see me.
Li Changshun nodded and started to get him things.
“纸钱8分钱一刀,这个是100响的炮仗,这个贵,要1毛8,6根蜡烛和香一共1毛2。总共加一起正好9毛钱。”
Yang Xiaole nodded and paid directly.
A hundred firecrackers cost 100 cents 2 each over there.Not too expensive.
I paid the money, took the bag of noodles and stuff, said hello and went back directly.
After returning to the place, many people came, including yesterday's aunt Zhao Lihong, Wang Tiezhu and his wife, and a young couple with several children.
After some introduction, I found out that the other couple was Wang Tiegen, the second son of my uncle's family.
Wang Qiuju saw Yang Xiaole put the dough bag in the room calmly, but she didn't ask.
Everyone who is meeting their loved ones has arrived.
Everyone walked towards the outside of the village together.
Although her mother, Wang Qiuju, doesn't like this sister-in-law, she is visiting her brother today.
The group of people walked for half an hour and stopped on a hillside while talking.
At this time, there were graves everywhere on the hillside.
The second uncle's grave was new, so he naturally went there first.
Halfway up the mountain, I found a new grave with only some sporadic weeds on it, unlike the others which were covered with weeds and withered grass.
After waiting for a while, I saw it.
As soon as she arrived here, Wang Qiuju's already red eyes couldn't bear it any longer.
He lay there and started crying.
The voice seemed to be wailing, singing, or recounting past events.
Yang Xiaole looked at this strange tomb and listened to the content of his mother's cry, and his nose felt a little sore.
Wang Tiezhu saw this and said to Yang Xiaole: "Xiaole, light the incense candles and paper money first, and then light them when the firecrackers are leaving. Those are your grandparents and your uncle over there."
As he spoke, he pointed to the old grave not far away.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole nodded.
After untying a piece of paper, Wang Tiezhu and several others helped to rub the paper money into petals.
Use the bowl you saved earlier to light the candles and incense.
Then put the paper money into the drawn circle, light the paper money, and several people together add paper money to it bit by bit.
By the way, I burned some paper money with my uncle and grandpa who were not far away.
Wang Qiuju cried for a while at her second brother's side, then went to her eldest brother and her parents.
Hearing her say that she would be the only one from now on, Yang Xiaole felt uncomfortable.
In his previous life, he had no father, no mother, and no blood relatives. When he saw that his mother's brothers, sisters, and parents had all passed away, he felt sad in his heart.
In the end, it was Zhao Lihong who pulled her mother away.
Yang Xiaole and Wang Tiezhu each set off a firecracker in front of several graves before leaving.
As for kowtow, that is definitely still needed.
Walking on the road, Wang Tiegen asked with a smile: "Xiao Le, I heard that Xiaomai is going to Sijiu City with you, right? I've never been there in my life! Have you ever seen Mr. Mao?"
Yang Xiaole's expression changed.
He laughed and said, "I don't know! Mom hasn't decided what to do yet! How could we possibly see Mao**'s old man?"
Captain Wang Baoshan probably didn't go around talking about it, because it hasn't been decided yet at home.
The only thing left was that the eldest aunt Zhao Lihong went out to talk.
On the way back, I saw children in the village digging wild vegetables everywhere.
While walking on the road, I heard Wang Qiuju and Zhao Lihong arguing.
Yang Xiaole listened for a while.
After coming back, everyone went to work, and the children dispersed in a hurry. After all, they didn't know each other.
Yang Xiaole and Xiaomai followed the angry Wang Qiuju back to Xiaomai's home.
After returning, Wang Qiuju said angrily: "Xiao Le, go find the captain and complete the formalities. Let's take Xiaomai back to Sijiu City."
Yang Xiaole was surprised for a while after listening: "Mom, what did you just say? Why are you so angry?"
Hearing this, Wang Qiuju looked at Xiaomai.
He shook his head: "It's okay. If you want to do it, just do it earlier."
After saying that, they asked Mai Mai to stay here, and the two of them went to the field to find the captain.
Walking on the road, Yang Xiaole knew why Wang Qiuju was so angry.
She and Zhao Lihong were discussing the wheat matter. After all, only the two of them could make the decision now.
Other relatives and wheat have been released for five servings.
Zhao Lihong means that wheat cannot be raised, but last year's subsidy cannot be returned. It cost a lot of money to buy the coffin, and there is still more than 20 yuan left for other expenses.
He also said that Wang Qiuju was so anxious to get the wheat back because she was interested in the more than 20 yuan.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole was also speechless.
Are you so short-sighted?
Their round trip ticket costs more than 100 yuan.
Do you care about the more than 20 yuan?
Wang Qiuju said angrily: "Let's take Xiaomai away. We don't want the money, and we won't come. When Xiaomai grows up, find a job in the city and let her go back and piss them off."
Yang Xiaole was also happy when he heard this.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mom, let's do this. I'll get the wheat money back, so you don't have to worry about it."
He doesn't care about the money anymore.
I just want to take advantage and don't want to raise wheat, which is a beautiful idea.
Hearing this, Wang Qiuju struggled for a while, and finally shook her head: "Forget it! What will happen if I take the 20 yuan! I finally came here, and I don't want to worry about this, otherwise I'll leave Well, the village still doesn’t know what to say about me!”
Yang Xiaole shrugged when he heard this: "Okay, you can take care of it. If you go back, go back early. You've wasted a lot of time, and ten days of leave is definitely not enough."
He doesn't care anyway.
Wang Qiuju nodded.
The two came to the field and found Wang Baoshan directly.
Hearing that she had made up her mind, she pondered for a while and finally nodded: "Okay, now that you have discussed it, let's make it clear in person. In the afternoon, go to the brigade to get the certificate, and then go to the commune to get the certificate. Don't go to the area. If you want to seal the deal with the provincial capital, you can only go there by yourself."
Then several people came back.
Yang Xiaole did not follow.
I asked my mother to do it by herself, and he went directly back to Xiaomai's house.
Back home, Mai was sitting there in a daze.
Seeing him coming back, she forced a smile.
Yang Xiaole also saw her expression and smiled: "Mai Ma, your aunt went to the team to handle the procedures for you. What do you think? Do you not want to leave?"
A group of people talked about it and never cared about Xiaomai's feelings.
Still have to ask.
Mai pursed her lips and looked around.
Finally he nodded and shook his head.
In his doubtful eyes, he said slowly: "Brother Xiao Le, I grew up here and don't want to leave, but my aunt doesn't want to raise me. No one wants me, and I have no place to go. Only my aunt wants me."
As he talked, he started crying.
Yang Xiaole also sighed.
No one wants it.
This is hard to hear.
If there are parents, who wants to be an unwanted child.
Although I am her eldest aunt, she has never met her before, so she still feels a bit strange. There are Xiaomai's relatives, friends and friends here.
No one wants to leave.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Mai, if you don't want to leave, I'll find a way."
If it really doesn't work, leaving it at the captain's house would be nothing more than paying some price.
This doesn't matter to him.
Mai did not speak.
Yang Xiaole saw this and didn't ask anymore.
Waiting there quietly.
After more than an hour, Wang Qiuju came over and said quickly: "Mai Ma, pack your things and don't take anything else with you. The captain will drive us to the commune later."
After finishing speaking, he said to Yang Xiaole: "I'll go to the brigade to get my stamp stamped later, and then I'll go to your grandpa's house to have a look."
Yang Xiaole heard this and asked, "Then...you won't have lunch at noon?"
"If you don't want to eat, go to the commune to eat!"
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought about it for a while, and finally nodded and looked at Xiaomai next to him.
Wang Qiuju was puzzled for a moment.
"Wheat, pack your things! Go to the city with my aunt. Just bring two changes of clothes, don't need the others. Your sister has old clothes, go over there and wear your sister's."
Seeing Mai's hesitation, he asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole said directly: "Mai Xiao doesn't want to leave! Do you want to think of other ways?"
Hearing this, Wang Qiuju looked like she hated iron.
"You are such a kid! After you go to the city, you will become a city dweller, and you can still make money when you grow up."
Xiaomai's eyes lit up: "Auntie, when I make money in the future, can I come back to see my parents?"
Wang Qiuju was stunned for a moment.
He sighed and rubbed her head, "Okay, you can come back to see your parents when you make money in the future and tell them that you are living a good life."
Xiaomai nodded vigorously when he heard this.
"Yeah, then I'll go with you."
"Hey, you are so good!"
While talking, a voice came from the door: "Qiu Ju! Are you done? Let's go when you're done."
"Hey, the big three are here, here they are!"
Wang Qiuju shouted.
After speaking, he urged Xiaomai: "Hurry up, take your thick clothes and two other pieces of clothing."
Seeing this, Xiaomai went to the big wooden box in the house and found two thin clothes and some underwear.
Seeing this scene, Wang Qiuju knew that these were probably all she needed.
Stuffed her clothes into his own package.
He picked up the things and pulled her away.
Mai pursed her lips and looked at the home where she had lived for more than ten years, and finally couldn't help crying.
Wang Baoshan sighed upon seeing this.
"Okay, come on up. We'll take care of the affairs of the brigade and the commune today. Tomorrow you go to the district to go through the formalities. This won't waste too much time."
Several people put their luggage on the mule cart.
The group of people just left the village.
Yang Xiaole looked at the rice in the bag and smiled bitterly. He hadn't even eaten the rice yet!
I am really fast too.
He is also planning to find time to take a walk in the mountains and get some game!
Forget it, just go back early!
Arriving at the brigade, Xiaomai pursed her lips and said to Wang Qiuju, "Auntie, can I go see my sister? She will be here in a minute."
Wang Qiuju thought for a while and said to Yang Xiaole: "Xiaole, you and your third father have completed the formalities. I and Xiaomai will go to see the seedlings. My aunt hasn't seen it yet!"
Yang Xiaole rolled her eyes.
Why don't you leave in such a hurry?
But he also knows that my mother is also worried about her job in the grocery store. If she is not allowed to work because of this, it will be troublesome.
I didn't expect this road to be so difficult, and it took me five days to get here.
If there is any further delay, it will definitely take more than ten days.
He nodded and agreed: "Okay, you go first, we will wait for you here after we finish it."
Wang Qiuju agreed upon seeing this.
He took the wheat and walked towards another part of the brigade.
Yang Xiaole followed him to the brigade headquarters.
When the captain heard what Wang Baoshan said, he did not hesitate and issued her a certificate and stamped it with his official seal.
After it was done, the two people were waiting there.
After waiting for about an hour, Wang Qiuju came back with Xiaomai with red eyes.
The group of people rushed towards Yangtai.
This is grandpa's hometown, and the only relative here is grandpa's eldest brother.
But after arriving here, I found that the old man had passed away.
Several people did not delay and drove directly to the commune.
While walking on the road, Wang Baoshan was also there to smooth things over: "Don't be angry with your sister-in-law. It's hard for the village now, and it's hard for any family to open their mouths. Now the village doesn't even dare to take a wife."
Wang Qiuju doesn't like this.
"Sanda, it's not me! Is it the same when marrying a wife? Wheat's rations are separate and she is just raised by her. When she gets married, she doesn't bring her rations, but Wheat's rations are brought with her."
Hearing this, Wang Baoshan also sighed.
"Look, is there still food in the village?"
As soon as she said this, Wang Qiuju said nothing more.
Yes, there is no food in the village, where is the food?
The car is driving on a mountain road.
Halfway through, Wang Baoshan took out his gun and said, "Be careful here. If there is anyone, don't move and give them your things."
When several people heard this and thought of Li Changshun's words, they felt smart.
Looking at the woods surrounding the mountain road, I felt worried.
But after walking for a long time, nothing unexpected happened.
"Boom..."
Just when several people breathed a sigh of relief and Wang Baoshan was about to put away his gun, an accident happened.
I saw a piece of wood in front of me thrown directly on the roadside.
At this time, several people also saw several people on the roadside.
One person was holding a gun, and the remaining ones were holding hoes.
"What are you doing? You dare to rob things in broad daylight."
Wang Baoshan held a gun and pointed it at the person who was also holding a gun, his face looked a little ugly.
I just saw the looks on these people's faces.
The man with the gun changed his face when he saw Wang Baoshan holding the gun, and shouted with a cold face: "Put down your money and food and let you leave. You only have one gun, there are so many of us."
Wang Baoshan looked at the people next to him with ugly expressions.
Just a gun myself.
And the other party was hiding behind a tree.
You may not be able to hit the opponent yourself.
Yang Xiaole looked around, took out a bag of grain and said, "This is a bag of grain. Here it is, let us pass. OK?"
By the way, he opened the grain bag and grabbed it with his hands.
Feng Tian saw the food and licked his lips.
Smiling and waving to the people next to him, he also jumped down.
But people hide behind other people.
Wang Baoshan saw this and shouted with a gun: "I'll give you the food, but get out of here."
But no one listened to him.
Feng Tian behind him smiled and said: "You only have a gun. What's there to be afraid of? If you don't have anything to eat, you're all going to die anyway. If anyone dies, we will share the money and food we get with your family." Come on."
Yang Xiaole also understood.
As long as you get food, you can share it with your family.
Although you will be scared at this time, you will still take risks.
The steps moved forward subconsciously.
At this time a farmer came over.
He stretched out his hand to snatch the food from his hand. "Don't grab it. I'll give you the food. You have to let me go."
The person who grabbed the things saw that Yang Xiaole was holding on to him, so he shook him hard a few times and threw him aside.
Then I opened the thing with a happy face.
Yang Xiaole's small body was pushed by the opponent and fell to the direction behind him.
His body didn't stand still and he ran forward a few steps.
Feng Tian looked at the other person as a little guy and didn't care.
"Xiao Le!"
Seeing this, Wang Qiuju looked like a little lion with explosive hair, and started fighting with the person just now.
"bump!"
When Wang Baoshan saw this, he fired directly at the person next to him.
"what!"
A scream came over.
When Feng Tian saw this, he picked up his gun and was about to take aim. There were many people there by then, so he subconsciously moved forward.
At this time, the gunfire rang out, and the others turned around and ran away in fear.
After all, he is a farmer, not a real robber.
"Useless guy! So cowardly!"
Feng Tian spat and was about to shoot.
"bump!"
Just as he was about to take aim, he felt a shadow coming from beside him, and his body felt hit by a big rock.
Before he could react, his stomach hurt.
Suddenly I felt like my internal organs were going to burst into pieces.
This was followed by a sharp pain in my arm.
"what!"
Feng Tian screamed and dropped the gun in his hand.
When Yang Xiaole saw this, he kicked the opponent away and reached out to pick up the gun on the ground.
Others had run away.
When he saw someone holding a gun, he was so frightened that he ran away.
"Sigh~~"
Feng Tian was so stunned by the punch that he couldn't speak for a long time.
"Xiao Le, Xiao Le, are you okay?"
Yang Xiaole pointed his gun at Feng Tian on the ground and shook his head: "I'm fine. Third daddy, what should I do with this person?"
The next words were said to Wang Baoshan.
Seeing that he was okay, Wang Qiuju started to yell: "You are crazy! Why did you take out the food? Why did you take out the food? Can't you just give it to them? What will happen to you if something happens to you?"
The state is a bit crazy.
Yang Xiaole shook his head: "It's okay, don't worry, and from the looks of it, they didn't run away even though we all had guns. Do you think they would bypass us so easily?"
Wang Baoshan came over with a gun.
Patted him on the shoulder: "Little guy, that's great, I didn't see it!"
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled.
Wang Baoshan looked at the man who had just been shot and fell to the ground wailing, and then looked at Feng Tian on the ground.
He said with a cold face: "Send it to the commune! Let the people in the county handle it."
After saying that, he pushed Feng Tian to the car.
He was tied up with a rope. As for the other person whose arm was injured, he was also tied up, and his mouth was stuffed with something to prevent him from talking.
Hands and feet were tied up.
After it was done, Wang Baoshan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, come on, hurry to the commune."
After saying that, he urged people to get in the car and drove towards the commune.
"woooooooo~~"
Xiaomai was startled when she saw the two whining people, and said aggrievedly: "Auntie, am I the broom star? Some people in the village say that I am the broom star."
When Wang Qiuju saw this, she pulled her into her arms.
Comforting: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Then he glared at Yang Xiaole: "You are not allowed to do this again, do you hear me?"
Yang Xiaole shrugged: "Okay, I understand. Can you please stop talking?"
"I'm not saying this just for you! What if something happens to you?"
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole said nothing more.
Listen to her nagging all the way there.
In the afternoon, a group of people came to the commune.
Wang Baoshan also handed these two people over to the commune people and asked them to deal with them.
He took the others to the commune to find the director to have the certificate stamped.
All that's left is to go to the regional and provincial capitals and get stamped.
After the matter was settled, Wang Baoshan said to Wang Qiuju: "Okay, I won't go to the area. You can go on your own. I will go back in a while. I just asked the commune for you. I will be there soon. The car goes to the Lu'an area, and they will take you there, just pay a few cents. It's about an hour or so away."
Wang Qiuju said thank you there.
The noon bus has left. The next bus is tomorrow at noon. It would be best if we could go back today.
In this way, I can go to the provincial capital after completing the formalities tomorrow morning.Then went home.
Yang Xiaole saw this and said directly: "I haven't eaten at noon, please wait a moment."
After speaking, he ran out.
About half an hour later, he came back.
He held several lunch boxes in his hands.
He handed one of them to Wang Baoshan, "Third father, you haven't eaten at noon. You can take these with you on the way. Here are some steamed buns. By the way, you can take this bag of rice with you."
After saying that, he gave the other party the ten kilograms of rice.
I was supposed to stay here for a few days, but it turned out to be no use.
Wang Baoshan looked at the things and shook his head: "I'll just take two steamed buns, and you can leave the rest by yourself."
When Yang Xiaole saw this, he smiled and said, "It's okay. We will have our food when we get home. There are also food sellers in the car, so don't worry about us."
Wang Qiuju knew that her son could get something, so she persuaded her: "Third major, please take it. We have a quota in the city, so we don't lack it."
"This……"
Hearing this, Wang Baoshan hesitated.
Finally, he nodded: "Okay, I'll accept it shamelessly!"
After finishing speaking, he sighed and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
"Hey, which one of you is going to Lu'an? The car has to leave."
While talking, shouts came from the commune compound.
"Hey, here, here!"
Yang Xiaole hurriedly waved and smiled at Wang Baoshan: "Third Grandpa, let's go there first! We'll come back when we have time."
He pulled Mai and walked towards the big yard.
Wang Qiuju said hello to Wang Baoshan and followed them.
Come over here, this is a big truck.
There were a lot of things in the car, but there were some empty spaces.
The passenger seat was occupied, so the three of us could only sit in the back.
Yang Xiaole handed each of them a cigarette, and the other person became polite and told them to knock on the roof of the car if they wanted to use the toilet, and they would stop.
Say thank you.The three climbed into the car.
The car set off after a while.
The three of them, Yang Xiaole, sat in the car. After they sat firmly, Yang Xiaole took out the food: "Mom, Xiaomai, eat something! I just bought it."
Opening the lunch box, there were some shredded potatoes and fried pork shreds, a full lunch box, and six large white steamed buns.
By the way, give each of them a pair of chopsticks.
Wang Qiuju was surprised when she saw this: "Where did you buy it?"
"Restaurant! I can still do it! Hurry up and eat!"
Yang Xiaole smiled indifferently.
He took the steamed bun and started eating it.
Wang Qiuju had no doubts, she just thought that she must have paid a lot of money or national food stamps.
Looking at Xiaomai beside him who was swallowing his saliva, he smiled and said, "Okay, just eat what your brother made!"
Yang Xiaole also said: "Eat it, I don't dare to make it too fat, this is just right."
You can't eat meat in Kyoto, let alone here. It must be that I haven't seen much oil and water for a long time, so I made it lighter.
Just to avoid having a stomachache.
Xiaomai swallowed, took the steamed bun and ate it.
She is really hungry.
I haven't eaten meat for a long time.
Several people were laughing and eating in the car while chatting.
After a bumpy journey, we arrived at the special area at ten o'clock in the evening.
At this time, Lu'an was not yet a city, but its jurisdiction was at the same level as a city.
After arriving at the place, Yang Xiaole gave the driver and co-pilot another cigarette before waving goodbye with a smile.
Find a guest house and stay.
This time I took matters into my own hands, and there are no good guest houses here.
Only ten people can live in one room.
Fortunately, there weren't many people inside, just a couple and a young man.
Naturally, I went out to find a restaurant for a meal in the evening.
Early the next morning, I went to the special area to have my stamp stamped, and got on the bus to the provincial capital.
In the afternoon, the group came to the provincial capital, made some inquiries, and went to the municipal building for a long time before completing all the procedures.
After all the formalities were completed, we took the bus back to the guest house.
All that's left is to buy a ticket back to Kyoto.
Yang Xiaole asked the two of them to stay at the guest house to rest for a while, while he went to buy tickets alone.
Stop by the orphanage and check it out.
When I came to the train station, I asked about the tickets there, looked at the time, and found a bus that left at 07:30 in the evening.
It happened to be morning when we got there.
After buying three sleepers, he left the train station.
There were more than three hours left, enough for him to visit a nursing home.
After coming out, I asked about the place, quietly took out the car, and drove towards the Yangtze River West Road.
This was the easternmost part of the city, and he was going to the west.
Fortunately, there are no traffic lights here yet, so we arrived at the suburbs after driving for about ten minutes.
After driving for a few more minutes, we arrived nearby.
Put the car away quietly.
He looked at this strange yet familiar place.
Not far away is Dashu Mountain, so the place is definitely right.
I put on my bicycle and asked around, and learned that the location of the orphanage was not the location in my previous life, but a place not far away.
Following the directions the other party told me, I rode my bike to the orphanage.
This is a big courtyard, and the sign hanging at the door still has the same name.
Just not that grandiose.
It's just a wooden board painted with white lime powder, with black letters written on it.
When he came to the door, he stopped the car and went directly to the door.
"Who are you looking for!"
When I got to the door, I was stopped by the old guard.
Yang Xiaole looked at the other person, thought for a moment and said, "I'm looking for someone. His name is Zhang Youming, and he's a child from this orphanage."
"Why are you looking for him?"
The other party asked strangely.
"Oh, I came here to see it on behalf of a friend."
Hearing this, the other party nodded, pointed to a brick building inside and said: "Go there, the dean is over there, go and ask him!"
"Okay, thank you."
Yang Xiaole said thank you.
We went directly to a brick house not far away.
The houses in the compound are very mixed, including mud houses and newly built brick houses, mixed together.
After coming here, an old man was sitting there drinking tea and reading a newspaper.
Seeing him, the other party put down the newspaper: "Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, are you the dean?"
"Well, I am, you are..."
"Oh, I was asked by a friend to come over and see a person named Zhang Youming. I want to ask if there is such a person."
The old man stood up after hearing this and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"
Yang Xiaole shook his head: "I came here to see it for a friend."
The old man hesitated for a moment and finally nodded, "Then come with me."
After speaking, he left the room and took him to an earthen house.
When I came to the door, there were several little dolls in tattered clothes sitting on small benches inside.
Sit there with dignity, listening to a story told by a middle-aged woman above.
"Zhang Youming! Come out. Someone is looking for you."
Hearing the sound, a little boy of four or five years old turned his head and shouted: "Grandpa Dean~"
After saying that, he hurriedly ran out.
Seeing his actions, Yang Xiaole felt a little dazed.
That's what I called him back then.
When he saw the other person's hand, he was already sure that it was the other person, because the old dean only had four fingers on his left hand and no thumb, but his right hand was intact.
The other party came closer and looked at the two people curiously.
The dean looked at Yang Xiaole: "Are you looking for him?"
Yang Xiaole nodded when he heard this: "Dean, can I talk to him alone?"
The dean thought for a moment and nodded, "Xiao Ming, do you hear that? Otherwise I'll beat you up!"
Zhang Youming stuck out his tongue at him when he heard this.
Upon seeing this, Yang Xiaole took him to the courtyard.
Zhang Youming looked at him curiously: "Brother, why are you looking for me? Do you know who my parents are?"
People in the compound sometimes come over to watch.
Yang Xiaole looked at the other person and took a deep breath and shook his head: "I don't know you, I just came to see you!"
Hearing this, Zhang Youming looked disappointed.
Yang Xiaole looked at the other person and said nothing for a long time. After a while, he asked: "How are you here? Is anyone bullying you?"
"When they bully me, I bite them."
Zhang Youming said fiercely.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole seemed to see the unruly version of himself in the orphanage again.
Then smiled.
It turns out that the old dean, grandpa, was the same person as him back then!
He pulled the other person over, hugged him, took out a bag of peach cakes and handed it to him: "Eat it, eat it here."
"Thank you big brother."
Zhang Youming's eyes lit up when he saw Tao Su.
Picked it up and ate it.
In the orphanage, it's only one yuan a year.
Yang Xiaole just looked at each other quietly, looking around the orphanage.
"Zhang Youming, tell me about your time in the orphanage! I want to hear it, okay?"
Zhang Youming glanced at him suspiciously, not knowing what he was doing.
But giving him such a delicious peach cake is definitely not a bad person.
Slowly started to talk about the orphanage.
Yang Xiaole listened quietly for more than half an hour.
After listening for a while, the little guy said, "Brother, can I leave this for my friend?"
Yang Xiaole came back to his senses.
He looked at the other person and smiled: "Okay, this is all for you, and this is for you too."
After that, he gave him some cans, candies, and biscuits, all of which were placed in a cloth bag.
Zhang Youming looked at him curiously: "Who are you?"
"You don't have to worry about who I am. Brother, if you have something else to do, just leave first! Okay, you can go back."
Zhang Youming was silent for a moment after hearing this.
He thought that the other party must know his parents.
Finally left.
Yang Xiaole watched the other party leave and took a deep breath.
When he came to the dean, he took out a cloth bag and said: "Dean, this is a little tribute. I'll look at it after I leave for a while. Half of it is for Zhang Youming. I hope you can treat him well. The rest is for the orphanage. .I’ll go back first.”
He put the bag on the table and left immediately.
The old dean looked at the bag and wondered.
When I opened it and saw so much money inside, my eyes widened.
He hurriedly walked out.
But what I saw was his back riding away.
After I came back, I counted them carefully several times.
Ten thousand.
This is a huge sum of money!
Yang Xiaole had already returned to the guest house at this time.
(End of this chapter)
The next morning.
The two of them had just gotten up and were packing their things when they saw Mai coming to the two of them holding a jar.
He also held two wicker branches that had lost their hair.
Mai looked at the two people and whispered: "Auntie, these are the branches that I just polished, and this salt, which I just went to get from Auntie. You can use this to brush your teeth."
Wang Qiuju stopped packing her things.
Take a look.
He smiled and rubbed her head.
"Auntie brought a toothbrush and toothpaste, please put them away."
This thing has not been used before. Normally, it uses plant ash. For more luxury, salt and plant ash are mixed together.
Then he took out two toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Wheat looked at it curiously.
I've heard of this, but never used it.
Seeing her expression, Wang Qiuju smiled: "Have you brushed your teeth? If not, use your aunt's toothbrush. I'll buy it for you later."
Wheat's head shook like a rattle.
"Flashed."
Wang Qiuju nodded, thought of something, and said to Yang Xiaole: "Xiaole, you will go to the consignment point later and buy some paper money and firecrackers. If nothing is sold, forget it. When you come back, we will visit your second uncle. By the way. , buy more, and your grandma, grandpa, and uncle are going to have a look."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole slapped his head.
Why didn't I think of it when I went there yesterday?
He nodded and agreed. "Yeah, I understand. I'll brush my teeth and go over there."
After saying that, I took my toothbrush and toothpaste, scooped up a ladle of water and squatted at the door to brush my teeth.
At this time, it was just dawn, singing was already playing on the loudspeaker, and many people were walking outside the village one after another.
The village is filled with fog.
After brushing his teeth, he immediately ran to the sales outlet.
When they arrived at the place, they saw Li Changshun opening the door of the sales outlet with a tired look on his face.
Naturally, the other party also saw him: "Xiao Le, you're here so early! I even said I would deliver it to you later!"
Yang Xiaole saw the other person's expression and asked curiously, "Oh, I'm here to buy some paper money and firecrackers. Uncle Li...are you...going to the commune by yourself?"
People in rural areas go to bed very early, so yawning basically doesn’t happen.
Hearing this, Li Changshun smiled awkwardly: "Well, I took a trip."
Without saying much, he said with a smile: "Come in, there are paper money and firecrackers. How much do you want?"
Yang Xiaole saw this and followed in.
Followed in.
After coming in, Li Changshun pointed to a flour bag on the counter and said, "Hey, here are the ten kilograms of rice you want. You weigh it. The paper money and firecrackers are there."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole lifted the dough bag a little.
He didn't go to weigh it. He looked at the paper money and said, "Give me 3 knives of paper money and 3 firecrackers. Oh, by the way, give me some incense candles."
I'm going to see my second uncle. My uncle and grandparents who passed away a long time ago will definitely want to see me.
Li Changshun nodded and started to get him things.
“纸钱8分钱一刀,这个是100响的炮仗,这个贵,要1毛8,6根蜡烛和香一共1毛2。总共加一起正好9毛钱。”
Yang Xiaole nodded and paid directly.
A hundred firecrackers cost 100 cents 2 each over there.Not too expensive.
I paid the money, took the bag of noodles and stuff, said hello and went back directly.
After returning to the place, many people came, including yesterday's aunt Zhao Lihong, Wang Tiezhu and his wife, and a young couple with several children.
After some introduction, I found out that the other couple was Wang Tiegen, the second son of my uncle's family.
Wang Qiuju saw Yang Xiaole put the dough bag in the room calmly, but she didn't ask.
Everyone who is meeting their loved ones has arrived.
Everyone walked towards the outside of the village together.
Although her mother, Wang Qiuju, doesn't like this sister-in-law, she is visiting her brother today.
The group of people walked for half an hour and stopped on a hillside while talking.
At this time, there were graves everywhere on the hillside.
The second uncle's grave was new, so he naturally went there first.
Halfway up the mountain, I found a new grave with only some sporadic weeds on it, unlike the others which were covered with weeds and withered grass.
After waiting for a while, I saw it.
As soon as she arrived here, Wang Qiuju's already red eyes couldn't bear it any longer.
He lay there and started crying.
The voice seemed to be wailing, singing, or recounting past events.
Yang Xiaole looked at this strange tomb and listened to the content of his mother's cry, and his nose felt a little sore.
Wang Tiezhu saw this and said to Yang Xiaole: "Xiaole, light the incense candles and paper money first, and then light them when the firecrackers are leaving. Those are your grandparents and your uncle over there."
As he spoke, he pointed to the old grave not far away.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole nodded.
After untying a piece of paper, Wang Tiezhu and several others helped to rub the paper money into petals.
Use the bowl you saved earlier to light the candles and incense.
Then put the paper money into the drawn circle, light the paper money, and several people together add paper money to it bit by bit.
By the way, I burned some paper money with my uncle and grandpa who were not far away.
Wang Qiuju cried for a while at her second brother's side, then went to her eldest brother and her parents.
Hearing her say that she would be the only one from now on, Yang Xiaole felt uncomfortable.
In his previous life, he had no father, no mother, and no blood relatives. When he saw that his mother's brothers, sisters, and parents had all passed away, he felt sad in his heart.
In the end, it was Zhao Lihong who pulled her mother away.
Yang Xiaole and Wang Tiezhu each set off a firecracker in front of several graves before leaving.
As for kowtow, that is definitely still needed.
Walking on the road, Wang Tiegen asked with a smile: "Xiao Le, I heard that Xiaomai is going to Sijiu City with you, right? I've never been there in my life! Have you ever seen Mr. Mao?"
Yang Xiaole's expression changed.
He laughed and said, "I don't know! Mom hasn't decided what to do yet! How could we possibly see Mao**'s old man?"
Captain Wang Baoshan probably didn't go around talking about it, because it hasn't been decided yet at home.
The only thing left was that the eldest aunt Zhao Lihong went out to talk.
On the way back, I saw children in the village digging wild vegetables everywhere.
While walking on the road, I heard Wang Qiuju and Zhao Lihong arguing.
Yang Xiaole listened for a while.
After coming back, everyone went to work, and the children dispersed in a hurry. After all, they didn't know each other.
Yang Xiaole and Xiaomai followed the angry Wang Qiuju back to Xiaomai's home.
After returning, Wang Qiuju said angrily: "Xiao Le, go find the captain and complete the formalities. Let's take Xiaomai back to Sijiu City."
Yang Xiaole was surprised for a while after listening: "Mom, what did you just say? Why are you so angry?"
Hearing this, Wang Qiuju looked at Xiaomai.
He shook his head: "It's okay. If you want to do it, just do it earlier."
After saying that, they asked Mai Mai to stay here, and the two of them went to the field to find the captain.
Walking on the road, Yang Xiaole knew why Wang Qiuju was so angry.
She and Zhao Lihong were discussing the wheat matter. After all, only the two of them could make the decision now.
Other relatives and wheat have been released for five servings.
Zhao Lihong means that wheat cannot be raised, but last year's subsidy cannot be returned. It cost a lot of money to buy the coffin, and there is still more than 20 yuan left for other expenses.
He also said that Wang Qiuju was so anxious to get the wheat back because she was interested in the more than 20 yuan.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole was also speechless.
Are you so short-sighted?
Their round trip ticket costs more than 100 yuan.
Do you care about the more than 20 yuan?
Wang Qiuju said angrily: "Let's take Xiaomai away. We don't want the money, and we won't come. When Xiaomai grows up, find a job in the city and let her go back and piss them off."
Yang Xiaole was also happy when he heard this.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mom, let's do this. I'll get the wheat money back, so you don't have to worry about it."
He doesn't care about the money anymore.
I just want to take advantage and don't want to raise wheat, which is a beautiful idea.
Hearing this, Wang Qiuju struggled for a while, and finally shook her head: "Forget it! What will happen if I take the 20 yuan! I finally came here, and I don't want to worry about this, otherwise I'll leave Well, the village still doesn’t know what to say about me!”
Yang Xiaole shrugged when he heard this: "Okay, you can take care of it. If you go back, go back early. You've wasted a lot of time, and ten days of leave is definitely not enough."
He doesn't care anyway.
Wang Qiuju nodded.
The two came to the field and found Wang Baoshan directly.
Hearing that she had made up her mind, she pondered for a while and finally nodded: "Okay, now that you have discussed it, let's make it clear in person. In the afternoon, go to the brigade to get the certificate, and then go to the commune to get the certificate. Don't go to the area. If you want to seal the deal with the provincial capital, you can only go there by yourself."
Then several people came back.
Yang Xiaole did not follow.
I asked my mother to do it by herself, and he went directly back to Xiaomai's house.
Back home, Mai was sitting there in a daze.
Seeing him coming back, she forced a smile.
Yang Xiaole also saw her expression and smiled: "Mai Ma, your aunt went to the team to handle the procedures for you. What do you think? Do you not want to leave?"
A group of people talked about it and never cared about Xiaomai's feelings.
Still have to ask.
Mai pursed her lips and looked around.
Finally he nodded and shook his head.
In his doubtful eyes, he said slowly: "Brother Xiao Le, I grew up here and don't want to leave, but my aunt doesn't want to raise me. No one wants me, and I have no place to go. Only my aunt wants me."
As he talked, he started crying.
Yang Xiaole also sighed.
No one wants it.
This is hard to hear.
If there are parents, who wants to be an unwanted child.
Although I am her eldest aunt, she has never met her before, so she still feels a bit strange. There are Xiaomai's relatives, friends and friends here.
No one wants to leave.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Mai, if you don't want to leave, I'll find a way."
If it really doesn't work, leaving it at the captain's house would be nothing more than paying some price.
This doesn't matter to him.
Mai did not speak.
Yang Xiaole saw this and didn't ask anymore.
Waiting there quietly.
After more than an hour, Wang Qiuju came over and said quickly: "Mai Ma, pack your things and don't take anything else with you. The captain will drive us to the commune later."
After finishing speaking, he said to Yang Xiaole: "I'll go to the brigade to get my stamp stamped later, and then I'll go to your grandpa's house to have a look."
Yang Xiaole heard this and asked, "Then...you won't have lunch at noon?"
"If you don't want to eat, go to the commune to eat!"
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought about it for a while, and finally nodded and looked at Xiaomai next to him.
Wang Qiuju was puzzled for a moment.
"Wheat, pack your things! Go to the city with my aunt. Just bring two changes of clothes, don't need the others. Your sister has old clothes, go over there and wear your sister's."
Seeing Mai's hesitation, he asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole said directly: "Mai Xiao doesn't want to leave! Do you want to think of other ways?"
Hearing this, Wang Qiuju looked like she hated iron.
"You are such a kid! After you go to the city, you will become a city dweller, and you can still make money when you grow up."
Xiaomai's eyes lit up: "Auntie, when I make money in the future, can I come back to see my parents?"
Wang Qiuju was stunned for a moment.
He sighed and rubbed her head, "Okay, you can come back to see your parents when you make money in the future and tell them that you are living a good life."
Xiaomai nodded vigorously when he heard this.
"Yeah, then I'll go with you."
"Hey, you are so good!"
While talking, a voice came from the door: "Qiu Ju! Are you done? Let's go when you're done."
"Hey, the big three are here, here they are!"
Wang Qiuju shouted.
After speaking, he urged Xiaomai: "Hurry up, take your thick clothes and two other pieces of clothing."
Seeing this, Xiaomai went to the big wooden box in the house and found two thin clothes and some underwear.
Seeing this scene, Wang Qiuju knew that these were probably all she needed.
Stuffed her clothes into his own package.
He picked up the things and pulled her away.
Mai pursed her lips and looked at the home where she had lived for more than ten years, and finally couldn't help crying.
Wang Baoshan sighed upon seeing this.
"Okay, come on up. We'll take care of the affairs of the brigade and the commune today. Tomorrow you go to the district to go through the formalities. This won't waste too much time."
Several people put their luggage on the mule cart.
The group of people just left the village.
Yang Xiaole looked at the rice in the bag and smiled bitterly. He hadn't even eaten the rice yet!
I am really fast too.
He is also planning to find time to take a walk in the mountains and get some game!
Forget it, just go back early!
Arriving at the brigade, Xiaomai pursed her lips and said to Wang Qiuju, "Auntie, can I go see my sister? She will be here in a minute."
Wang Qiuju thought for a while and said to Yang Xiaole: "Xiaole, you and your third father have completed the formalities. I and Xiaomai will go to see the seedlings. My aunt hasn't seen it yet!"
Yang Xiaole rolled her eyes.
Why don't you leave in such a hurry?
But he also knows that my mother is also worried about her job in the grocery store. If she is not allowed to work because of this, it will be troublesome.
I didn't expect this road to be so difficult, and it took me five days to get here.
If there is any further delay, it will definitely take more than ten days.
He nodded and agreed: "Okay, you go first, we will wait for you here after we finish it."
Wang Qiuju agreed upon seeing this.
He took the wheat and walked towards another part of the brigade.
Yang Xiaole followed him to the brigade headquarters.
When the captain heard what Wang Baoshan said, he did not hesitate and issued her a certificate and stamped it with his official seal.
After it was done, the two people were waiting there.
After waiting for about an hour, Wang Qiuju came back with Xiaomai with red eyes.
The group of people rushed towards Yangtai.
This is grandpa's hometown, and the only relative here is grandpa's eldest brother.
But after arriving here, I found that the old man had passed away.
Several people did not delay and drove directly to the commune.
While walking on the road, Wang Baoshan was also there to smooth things over: "Don't be angry with your sister-in-law. It's hard for the village now, and it's hard for any family to open their mouths. Now the village doesn't even dare to take a wife."
Wang Qiuju doesn't like this.
"Sanda, it's not me! Is it the same when marrying a wife? Wheat's rations are separate and she is just raised by her. When she gets married, she doesn't bring her rations, but Wheat's rations are brought with her."
Hearing this, Wang Baoshan also sighed.
"Look, is there still food in the village?"
As soon as she said this, Wang Qiuju said nothing more.
Yes, there is no food in the village, where is the food?
The car is driving on a mountain road.
Halfway through, Wang Baoshan took out his gun and said, "Be careful here. If there is anyone, don't move and give them your things."
When several people heard this and thought of Li Changshun's words, they felt smart.
Looking at the woods surrounding the mountain road, I felt worried.
But after walking for a long time, nothing unexpected happened.
"Boom..."
Just when several people breathed a sigh of relief and Wang Baoshan was about to put away his gun, an accident happened.
I saw a piece of wood in front of me thrown directly on the roadside.
At this time, several people also saw several people on the roadside.
One person was holding a gun, and the remaining ones were holding hoes.
"What are you doing? You dare to rob things in broad daylight."
Wang Baoshan held a gun and pointed it at the person who was also holding a gun, his face looked a little ugly.
I just saw the looks on these people's faces.
The man with the gun changed his face when he saw Wang Baoshan holding the gun, and shouted with a cold face: "Put down your money and food and let you leave. You only have one gun, there are so many of us."
Wang Baoshan looked at the people next to him with ugly expressions.
Just a gun myself.
And the other party was hiding behind a tree.
You may not be able to hit the opponent yourself.
Yang Xiaole looked around, took out a bag of grain and said, "This is a bag of grain. Here it is, let us pass. OK?"
By the way, he opened the grain bag and grabbed it with his hands.
Feng Tian saw the food and licked his lips.
Smiling and waving to the people next to him, he also jumped down.
But people hide behind other people.
Wang Baoshan saw this and shouted with a gun: "I'll give you the food, but get out of here."
But no one listened to him.
Feng Tian behind him smiled and said: "You only have a gun. What's there to be afraid of? If you don't have anything to eat, you're all going to die anyway. If anyone dies, we will share the money and food we get with your family." Come on."
Yang Xiaole also understood.
As long as you get food, you can share it with your family.
Although you will be scared at this time, you will still take risks.
The steps moved forward subconsciously.
At this time a farmer came over.
He stretched out his hand to snatch the food from his hand. "Don't grab it. I'll give you the food. You have to let me go."
The person who grabbed the things saw that Yang Xiaole was holding on to him, so he shook him hard a few times and threw him aside.
Then I opened the thing with a happy face.
Yang Xiaole's small body was pushed by the opponent and fell to the direction behind him.
His body didn't stand still and he ran forward a few steps.
Feng Tian looked at the other person as a little guy and didn't care.
"Xiao Le!"
Seeing this, Wang Qiuju looked like a little lion with explosive hair, and started fighting with the person just now.
"bump!"
When Wang Baoshan saw this, he fired directly at the person next to him.
"what!"
A scream came over.
When Feng Tian saw this, he picked up his gun and was about to take aim. There were many people there by then, so he subconsciously moved forward.
At this time, the gunfire rang out, and the others turned around and ran away in fear.
After all, he is a farmer, not a real robber.
"Useless guy! So cowardly!"
Feng Tian spat and was about to shoot.
"bump!"
Just as he was about to take aim, he felt a shadow coming from beside him, and his body felt hit by a big rock.
Before he could react, his stomach hurt.
Suddenly I felt like my internal organs were going to burst into pieces.
This was followed by a sharp pain in my arm.
"what!"
Feng Tian screamed and dropped the gun in his hand.
When Yang Xiaole saw this, he kicked the opponent away and reached out to pick up the gun on the ground.
Others had run away.
When he saw someone holding a gun, he was so frightened that he ran away.
"Sigh~~"
Feng Tian was so stunned by the punch that he couldn't speak for a long time.
"Xiao Le, Xiao Le, are you okay?"
Yang Xiaole pointed his gun at Feng Tian on the ground and shook his head: "I'm fine. Third daddy, what should I do with this person?"
The next words were said to Wang Baoshan.
Seeing that he was okay, Wang Qiuju started to yell: "You are crazy! Why did you take out the food? Why did you take out the food? Can't you just give it to them? What will happen to you if something happens to you?"
The state is a bit crazy.
Yang Xiaole shook his head: "It's okay, don't worry, and from the looks of it, they didn't run away even though we all had guns. Do you think they would bypass us so easily?"
Wang Baoshan came over with a gun.
Patted him on the shoulder: "Little guy, that's great, I didn't see it!"
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled.
Wang Baoshan looked at the man who had just been shot and fell to the ground wailing, and then looked at Feng Tian on the ground.
He said with a cold face: "Send it to the commune! Let the people in the county handle it."
After saying that, he pushed Feng Tian to the car.
He was tied up with a rope. As for the other person whose arm was injured, he was also tied up, and his mouth was stuffed with something to prevent him from talking.
Hands and feet were tied up.
After it was done, Wang Baoshan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, come on, hurry to the commune."
After saying that, he urged people to get in the car and drove towards the commune.
"woooooooo~~"
Xiaomai was startled when she saw the two whining people, and said aggrievedly: "Auntie, am I the broom star? Some people in the village say that I am the broom star."
When Wang Qiuju saw this, she pulled her into her arms.
Comforting: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Then he glared at Yang Xiaole: "You are not allowed to do this again, do you hear me?"
Yang Xiaole shrugged: "Okay, I understand. Can you please stop talking?"
"I'm not saying this just for you! What if something happens to you?"
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole said nothing more.
Listen to her nagging all the way there.
In the afternoon, a group of people came to the commune.
Wang Baoshan also handed these two people over to the commune people and asked them to deal with them.
He took the others to the commune to find the director to have the certificate stamped.
All that's left is to go to the regional and provincial capitals and get stamped.
After the matter was settled, Wang Baoshan said to Wang Qiuju: "Okay, I won't go to the area. You can go on your own. I will go back in a while. I just asked the commune for you. I will be there soon. The car goes to the Lu'an area, and they will take you there, just pay a few cents. It's about an hour or so away."
Wang Qiuju said thank you there.
The noon bus has left. The next bus is tomorrow at noon. It would be best if we could go back today.
In this way, I can go to the provincial capital after completing the formalities tomorrow morning.Then went home.
Yang Xiaole saw this and said directly: "I haven't eaten at noon, please wait a moment."
After speaking, he ran out.
About half an hour later, he came back.
He held several lunch boxes in his hands.
He handed one of them to Wang Baoshan, "Third father, you haven't eaten at noon. You can take these with you on the way. Here are some steamed buns. By the way, you can take this bag of rice with you."
After saying that, he gave the other party the ten kilograms of rice.
I was supposed to stay here for a few days, but it turned out to be no use.
Wang Baoshan looked at the things and shook his head: "I'll just take two steamed buns, and you can leave the rest by yourself."
When Yang Xiaole saw this, he smiled and said, "It's okay. We will have our food when we get home. There are also food sellers in the car, so don't worry about us."
Wang Qiuju knew that her son could get something, so she persuaded her: "Third major, please take it. We have a quota in the city, so we don't lack it."
"This……"
Hearing this, Wang Baoshan hesitated.
Finally, he nodded: "Okay, I'll accept it shamelessly!"
After finishing speaking, he sighed and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
"Hey, which one of you is going to Lu'an? The car has to leave."
While talking, shouts came from the commune compound.
"Hey, here, here!"
Yang Xiaole hurriedly waved and smiled at Wang Baoshan: "Third Grandpa, let's go there first! We'll come back when we have time."
He pulled Mai and walked towards the big yard.
Wang Qiuju said hello to Wang Baoshan and followed them.
Come over here, this is a big truck.
There were a lot of things in the car, but there were some empty spaces.
The passenger seat was occupied, so the three of us could only sit in the back.
Yang Xiaole handed each of them a cigarette, and the other person became polite and told them to knock on the roof of the car if they wanted to use the toilet, and they would stop.
Say thank you.The three climbed into the car.
The car set off after a while.
The three of them, Yang Xiaole, sat in the car. After they sat firmly, Yang Xiaole took out the food: "Mom, Xiaomai, eat something! I just bought it."
Opening the lunch box, there were some shredded potatoes and fried pork shreds, a full lunch box, and six large white steamed buns.
By the way, give each of them a pair of chopsticks.
Wang Qiuju was surprised when she saw this: "Where did you buy it?"
"Restaurant! I can still do it! Hurry up and eat!"
Yang Xiaole smiled indifferently.
He took the steamed bun and started eating it.
Wang Qiuju had no doubts, she just thought that she must have paid a lot of money or national food stamps.
Looking at Xiaomai beside him who was swallowing his saliva, he smiled and said, "Okay, just eat what your brother made!"
Yang Xiaole also said: "Eat it, I don't dare to make it too fat, this is just right."
You can't eat meat in Kyoto, let alone here. It must be that I haven't seen much oil and water for a long time, so I made it lighter.
Just to avoid having a stomachache.
Xiaomai swallowed, took the steamed bun and ate it.
She is really hungry.
I haven't eaten meat for a long time.
Several people were laughing and eating in the car while chatting.
After a bumpy journey, we arrived at the special area at ten o'clock in the evening.
At this time, Lu'an was not yet a city, but its jurisdiction was at the same level as a city.
After arriving at the place, Yang Xiaole gave the driver and co-pilot another cigarette before waving goodbye with a smile.
Find a guest house and stay.
This time I took matters into my own hands, and there are no good guest houses here.
Only ten people can live in one room.
Fortunately, there weren't many people inside, just a couple and a young man.
Naturally, I went out to find a restaurant for a meal in the evening.
Early the next morning, I went to the special area to have my stamp stamped, and got on the bus to the provincial capital.
In the afternoon, the group came to the provincial capital, made some inquiries, and went to the municipal building for a long time before completing all the procedures.
After all the formalities were completed, we took the bus back to the guest house.
All that's left is to buy a ticket back to Kyoto.
Yang Xiaole asked the two of them to stay at the guest house to rest for a while, while he went to buy tickets alone.
Stop by the orphanage and check it out.
When I came to the train station, I asked about the tickets there, looked at the time, and found a bus that left at 07:30 in the evening.
It happened to be morning when we got there.
After buying three sleepers, he left the train station.
There were more than three hours left, enough for him to visit a nursing home.
After coming out, I asked about the place, quietly took out the car, and drove towards the Yangtze River West Road.
This was the easternmost part of the city, and he was going to the west.
Fortunately, there are no traffic lights here yet, so we arrived at the suburbs after driving for about ten minutes.
After driving for a few more minutes, we arrived nearby.
Put the car away quietly.
He looked at this strange yet familiar place.
Not far away is Dashu Mountain, so the place is definitely right.
I put on my bicycle and asked around, and learned that the location of the orphanage was not the location in my previous life, but a place not far away.
Following the directions the other party told me, I rode my bike to the orphanage.
This is a big courtyard, and the sign hanging at the door still has the same name.
Just not that grandiose.
It's just a wooden board painted with white lime powder, with black letters written on it.
When he came to the door, he stopped the car and went directly to the door.
"Who are you looking for!"
When I got to the door, I was stopped by the old guard.
Yang Xiaole looked at the other person, thought for a moment and said, "I'm looking for someone. His name is Zhang Youming, and he's a child from this orphanage."
"Why are you looking for him?"
The other party asked strangely.
"Oh, I came here to see it on behalf of a friend."
Hearing this, the other party nodded, pointed to a brick building inside and said: "Go there, the dean is over there, go and ask him!"
"Okay, thank you."
Yang Xiaole said thank you.
We went directly to a brick house not far away.
The houses in the compound are very mixed, including mud houses and newly built brick houses, mixed together.
After coming here, an old man was sitting there drinking tea and reading a newspaper.
Seeing him, the other party put down the newspaper: "Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, are you the dean?"
"Well, I am, you are..."
"Oh, I was asked by a friend to come over and see a person named Zhang Youming. I want to ask if there is such a person."
The old man stood up after hearing this and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"
Yang Xiaole shook his head: "I came here to see it for a friend."
The old man hesitated for a moment and finally nodded, "Then come with me."
After speaking, he left the room and took him to an earthen house.
When I came to the door, there were several little dolls in tattered clothes sitting on small benches inside.
Sit there with dignity, listening to a story told by a middle-aged woman above.
"Zhang Youming! Come out. Someone is looking for you."
Hearing the sound, a little boy of four or five years old turned his head and shouted: "Grandpa Dean~"
After saying that, he hurriedly ran out.
Seeing his actions, Yang Xiaole felt a little dazed.
That's what I called him back then.
When he saw the other person's hand, he was already sure that it was the other person, because the old dean only had four fingers on his left hand and no thumb, but his right hand was intact.
The other party came closer and looked at the two people curiously.
The dean looked at Yang Xiaole: "Are you looking for him?"
Yang Xiaole nodded when he heard this: "Dean, can I talk to him alone?"
The dean thought for a moment and nodded, "Xiao Ming, do you hear that? Otherwise I'll beat you up!"
Zhang Youming stuck out his tongue at him when he heard this.
Upon seeing this, Yang Xiaole took him to the courtyard.
Zhang Youming looked at him curiously: "Brother, why are you looking for me? Do you know who my parents are?"
People in the compound sometimes come over to watch.
Yang Xiaole looked at the other person and took a deep breath and shook his head: "I don't know you, I just came to see you!"
Hearing this, Zhang Youming looked disappointed.
Yang Xiaole looked at the other person and said nothing for a long time. After a while, he asked: "How are you here? Is anyone bullying you?"
"When they bully me, I bite them."
Zhang Youming said fiercely.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole seemed to see the unruly version of himself in the orphanage again.
Then smiled.
It turns out that the old dean, grandpa, was the same person as him back then!
He pulled the other person over, hugged him, took out a bag of peach cakes and handed it to him: "Eat it, eat it here."
"Thank you big brother."
Zhang Youming's eyes lit up when he saw Tao Su.
Picked it up and ate it.
In the orphanage, it's only one yuan a year.
Yang Xiaole just looked at each other quietly, looking around the orphanage.
"Zhang Youming, tell me about your time in the orphanage! I want to hear it, okay?"
Zhang Youming glanced at him suspiciously, not knowing what he was doing.
But giving him such a delicious peach cake is definitely not a bad person.
Slowly started to talk about the orphanage.
Yang Xiaole listened quietly for more than half an hour.
After listening for a while, the little guy said, "Brother, can I leave this for my friend?"
Yang Xiaole came back to his senses.
He looked at the other person and smiled: "Okay, this is all for you, and this is for you too."
After that, he gave him some cans, candies, and biscuits, all of which were placed in a cloth bag.
Zhang Youming looked at him curiously: "Who are you?"
"You don't have to worry about who I am. Brother, if you have something else to do, just leave first! Okay, you can go back."
Zhang Youming was silent for a moment after hearing this.
He thought that the other party must know his parents.
Finally left.
Yang Xiaole watched the other party leave and took a deep breath.
When he came to the dean, he took out a cloth bag and said: "Dean, this is a little tribute. I'll look at it after I leave for a while. Half of it is for Zhang Youming. I hope you can treat him well. The rest is for the orphanage. .I’ll go back first.”
He put the bag on the table and left immediately.
The old dean looked at the bag and wondered.
When I opened it and saw so much money inside, my eyes widened.
He hurriedly walked out.
But what I saw was his back riding away.
After I came back, I counted them carefully several times.
Ten thousand.
This is a huge sum of money!
Yang Xiaole had already returned to the guest house at this time.
