Chapter 42

After simply packing a piece of luggage and making a phone call to talk to his parents, Rococo climbed on the train to Jiangxi.

She bought a sleeper ticket, departed at night, and arrived the next morning. I don’t know if it was because she hadn’t slept well a while ago. She fell asleep quickly amidst the shaking of the train, and she slept soundly. Very good, I was woken up by the voice of the flight attendant. It turned out that the previous stop was Nanchang, Jiangxi.

It was just dawn when she arrived. Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings and the hurried passengers, she realized how impulsive her actions were. She had always avoided Qiao Rui in fear. How could she be so restless this time? ?What is it to come here so rashly?

However, it was too late to regret, because Qiao Rui had already seen her, waved at her, walked over with big strides, and took the suitcase in her hand naturally, "I'm tired after sitting in the car for so long Right? But there are two more transfers to go to my house, about two hours, let's go have some breakfast first."

Luo Keke looked at him with some surprise, "When did you come here? How long have you been waiting here?" It's only past six o'clock now, and it will take him more than two hours to come here. Doesn't it mean that he will leave home at three or four o'clock? Out?
"There was no car in the middle of the night. I came here to wait for you last night. How did I treat you? You should repay your kindness and treat me better in the future, you know?" Qiao Rui asked for credit.

When he said this, the little touch in Luo Keke's heart disappeared immediately. She rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Okay, then I'll treat you to breakfast."

The breakfast was eaten next to the train station. It was a famous local snack. Many people ate it, but it didn't suit Rococo's appetite. She stopped after a few bites.

"What's the matter? Don't like it? How about changing to another restaurant to eat something else?"

"No need, I don't have much appetite, but didn't you say that the food in your hometown is delicious, and I will definitely not regret it? It's just mediocre."

"Cut," Qiao Rui curled his lips disdainfully, "Please don't jump to conclusions just after eating something, when you get to my house and taste my mother's dishes, you will know what is delicious, I bet , you will have three bowls of rice for lunch today."

Luo Keke couldn't help laughing loudly, "Pull it down, when did you see me eat three bowls of rice? One bowl of rice is already my limit."

Qiao Rui looked confident, "If you don't believe me, just read it. Let's make a bet. The loser has to answer a question of the winner. He must answer truthfully and not lie."

"Okay, it's a deal." Such a bet, she is sure to win, and she is not a pig, how can she have three bowls of rice?

After breakfast, they went to take a car, first a minibus, to their county town, then changed to an electric tricycle carrying passengers to their village, and then walked from the entrance of the village to his home.

The village in the mountains is nothing but big. It took about ten minutes to walk from the entrance of the village to his house, and along the way, I met many villagers. They greeted Qiao Rui warmly when they saw him. The eyes towards her became more ambiguous, and while smiling at her kindly, he looked her up and down thoroughly, and some grandmas asked directly, "Rui, is this girl your wife? It's so pretty."

"Grandma, no, this is my classmate from college, who came to my house to play."

"Really? Are all the girls in this city so good-looking? Then quickly find a daughter-in-law from the city and bring them back for us to see."

Qiao Rui was not embarrassed at all, and generously agreed, "Okay, I will definitely bring it back for you to see."

Until he walked far away, Luo Keke could still hear those aunts and grandmas still discussing her figure enthusiastically, "The skin is so fair, the waist is so thin, but the buttocks are not big, I don't know if it is good to give birth... "

When I arrived at Qiao Rui's house, I saw Father Qiao waiting at the door from afar, and immediately went up to meet them, "Girl, are you tired from the car on this road? Hurry up and go in the house to have a rest." , you can eat right away, and have a good sleep after eating."

"Thank you uncle, I slept all night on the train and I'm not tired."

After entering the house, Rococo gave the gift he brought: a pair of chess made of crystal to Dad Qiao, "Uncle, I heard from Qiao Rui that you like playing chess. I happen to have a pair at home. No one in my family knows how to play chess anyway. Here it is for you, I hope you like it.”

Joe's father suddenly looked pleasantly surprised, "You girl, what gift did you bring when you came all the way? Your aunt and I are so happy that you can come to our mountain to play. This gift is so expensive, I can't accept it! "

"Uncle, don't be too polite. No one in my family knows how to play, and it's useless to keep it at home. It's rare that you like it. It's the right to borrow flowers to offer Buddha."

Qiao Rui giggled, "Dad, don't be polite to her, she has a lot of good things at home, and it's not bad."

Joe's father gave him a hard look, and then he took it a little uneasy, "Then I will really accept it, oh, I am not willing to take out such a valuable thing to play with."

Seeing two little radish heads in the room looking at her curiously from a distance, Luo Keke smiled and waved at them, "Is it Xiaozhi and Xiaoxue? My sister also brought a gift for you, do you want it? Come over to my sister."

Two children of about the same age looked at her, then at their father and elder brother, and finally walked over timidly, and called softly, "Sister."

"Good boy." She rubbed their smooth black hair, and took out two sets of toys from the suitcase, one is a genuine Barbie doll and the other is a Transformers model, "Do you like it?"

"I like it! Thank you, sister." The two children immediately smiled, thanked them sweetly, and took the toy.

"Sister, there are some chocolates and imported candies here. Do you want to eat them? But if you want to eat them, you can kiss my sister." Rococo waved the delicately packaged candies in his hand.

With the delicious food in front of her, the two children immediately put aside their restraint, rushed up one from the left and the other from the right, and kissed her on the cheek.

Rococo giggled and patted their little buttocks, "Okay, let's go play."

The two children ran away happily, Qiao Rui approached her, and spread his hands with a smile, "Everyone has a gift, what about mine?"

Rococo slapped his hand down fiercely, "I'll give you a slap."

He pouted immediately, and muttered in dissatisfaction, "Civil."

Luo Keke ignored him, looked left and right and didn't see Qiao's mother, so she asked, and the answer she got was that she was in the kitchen, so she also went to the kitchen, and sure enough, she saw that she was preparing meals in full swing, and she immediately held her He rolled up his sleeves, "Aunt Qiao, is there anything I can do for you?"

Seeing this, Qiao's mother quickly pushed her outside, "There is heavy oily smoke in the kitchen, and there are no range hoods in the countryside. Get out quickly, so you don't get choked."

Qiao Rui came over and dragged her away, "Let's go, I'll take you to put your luggage."

According to her observation, the conditions of Qiao's family in this village should be relatively good. They also live in a small two-story building built by themselves. The general activities are on the first floor, and the second floor is the bedroom. One room for the two children, one room for Qiao Rui, and it was obviously his own room that Qiao Rui brought her to. The room was small, but it was very clean. The most conspicuous thing was a large bookcase by the window. There is a whole bookcase of books neatly listed inside.

Qiao Rui helped her put down the suitcase, "You can live in this room. My mother changed the bed sheets and so on in the morning, and the quilt was drying outside. It's clean, but it's a little crowded. Naturally, the environment can't match yours. Jiabi, just make do with it."

Rococo shook her head, she didn't have very high requirements for living, "I sleep here, where do you sleep?" She just looked at it casually, and it seemed that there were only three rooms.

"It's enough for the two children to sleep in the same bed. I'll sleep with them."

After packing up the luggage, Mother Qiao also came over and asked them to go down for lunch. Luo Keke was really surprised when he saw the dishes on the table. He really didn't expect such a sumptuous lunch in this small mountain village far from the city. Any dish can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars in the city.

"Girl, there's nothing good to entertain you in this mountain. They're all rough things from the mountain, but they're all very fresh. You'll just have to eat."

"Uh, Aunt Qiao, you are too polite. Even if you have money, you may not be able to eat these dishes in the city." Facing this big table of rare dishes, she really felt a little reckless. Dad has eaten in many high-end restaurants, so he probably knows what level of people are required to eat such a table of dishes.

"Then eat more." Qiao Rui picked up a chopstick of a wild vegetable whose name she didn't know and put it in her bowl. "Try this, my favorite dish."

Luo Keke took a bite and was surprised again, no wonder Qiao Rui could confidently propose a bet of three bowls of rice to him, "Aunt Qiao, your craftsmanship is so good that even the big chefs in the city can't cook this taste. "

"Now you know I'm not bragging," Qiao Rui said proudly, and added a few other dishes to her bowl, "Try these again, they are all my mother's special skills, I won't eat these dishes when I come here , even if you came here for nothing, and knowing that you are coming, I specially made spicy ones according to your taste, and you will definitely like it."

Rococo no longer had any doubts. She tasted each dish with great anticipation. Sure enough, it was more delicious than she imagined. It could be described as the best in the world. Forget about Cloud Nine, because the food tastes too spicy, so I even ate more meals with her, and after sitting on the train all night, I was already hungry, and before I knew it, I actually ate three meals. A bowl of rice!
After eating, Qiao Rui smiled and looked at Rococo who was half lying on the chair and refused to move, "Looking at your gluttonous appearance, people who don't know think you haven't eaten for a few days. Let's go out with you for a walk."

"Hey, it's all because of the delicious food made by Aunt Qiao. After I return to BJ, I must have lost my taste for a while."

Qiao Rui giggled and pulled her up, "Do you still remember the bet we made this morning? If I remember correctly, you ate three bowls of rice today."

Luo Keke glared at him fiercely, "I said, why do you work so hard to feed me food all the time? It turned out to be premeditated, hehe, but it's okay, I'm willing to bet, I have nothing to say to others, Ask whatever you want."

"I haven't decided what to ask you yet. I'll ask you at night when I think about it."

"Then think about it slowly, but I won't admit it after today."

"Don't worry, I will never let go of any opportunity that is beneficial to me."
