I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 487 Wei Lan is not dead

Wei Lan was startled, and the cashmere hat on her head fell to the ground. She stepped on it several times while walking back and forth: "What are you doing?"

The child in the woman's arms was crying non-stop. However, at this time, the woman was struggling to support the child with one hand, and grabbed Wei Lan's wrist with the other hand and refused to let go.

The woman was anxious to say something, but she made a single-syllable "ahhh" sound with a sad face, unable to say anything.

 You can tell that the two of them are not the same person by their clothes, and someone quickly noticed this.

The crowd gathered around and saw that the woman couldn't speak and was dragging a beautiful girl and refused to let go. They just thought she was crazy. Someone rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to pull the woman away.

 The crowd gathered around, causing great panic to the child, who cried even louder.

The woman placed the child beside the frame and rushed toward Wei Lan with red eyes. When people around her pushed her back, the woman fell heavily to the ground, and in the end she only grabbed one of Wei Lan's ankles.

Wei Lan was so frightened that her body shrank suddenly and she forgot to move while standing there.

When Yanyi came back, he saw a crowd surrounding him. His heart sank suddenly. He squeezed through the crowd to find Wei Lan and took him into his arms.

"How are you? Are you okay?" Yanyi nervously checked Wei Lan's condition, but saw her biting her lower lip tightly, her gaze fixed on one point.

Yanyi looked around and his eyes quickly settled on the woman lying on the ground.

Looking back and forth, Yanyi can roughly guess what happened.

He tidied Wei Lan's messy hair and said softly, "If you want to eat peaches, just tell me and I'll buy them."

 After saying that, Yanyi opened his windbreaker and took out a dollar from the lining pocket.

Yanyi lifted the woman up from the ground and put money into her hand.

Without asking how much the peaches cost per pound, Yanyi picked up an expired newspaper from the bamboo basket, wrapped two peaches and put them in his pocket. He stood up and put his arms around Wei Lan's shoulders to walk out of the crowd.

 The woman wanted to chase her but couldn't let go of the child, so in the end she could only whimper loudly: "Uh... Gu Zha (Gu Chao)... Gu (Gu)..."

Wei Lan looked back and saw the woman buying peaches with helpless tears on her face.

For some reason, Wei Lan stopped and suddenly hesitated.

Yanyi looked down at her: "What's wrong?"

Wei Lan pursed her pink lips slightly and frowned slightly, saying: "She is mute."

 “There are many such people in the world.”

There are so many that even ten Wei Lans can't show mercy to them.

Yanyi glanced at his watch, took Wei Lan's wrist and walked into the station: "Let's go quickly, the train is about to enter the station."

Wei Lan nodded hesitantly, her eyes lingering on the peach seller for a moment, then she turned around and followed Yanyi into the train station without looking back.

Fang Xia cried "woo woo", wiped her tears, picked up the crying brother Shao, and stopped selling peaches, picked up the box and hurried home.

   *

 Nowadays, with the policy reform, there are no large shops in the streets and alleys, but there are many small traders.

Some of them are businessmen who work in the black market. Once the policy was implemented, they were on the front line. They used to work in secret and turned into selling goods openly.

 There is also a part that farmers produce and sell themselves, such as eggs, linen cloth, agricultural products, etc.

After Gu Chao left, the Gu family's house was taken care of by Gu Yang and Fang Xia. This month was the season when peaches were ripe. In previous years, Gu Chao would send them to the supply and marketing cooperative or sell them on the black market. Now the supply and marketing cooperative is on the verge of disintegration. They have basically stopped collecting things from individual people.

　　Not to mention the black market, everyone is busy doing their own business, and they only collect rare, rare and practical things.

Seeing that there were more and more ripe peaches, Gu Yang couldn't leave because he was busy with farm work. Fang Xia was afraid of spoiling things, so she picked the peaches a day in advance, cut off the branches and leaves and packed them neatly one by one. I woke up so early in the morning that I couldn't even bear to take the commune bus for two cents. I held Brother Shao in front of me and carried a large basket of peaches on my back, and walked for nearly four hours to the county.

There are many people coming and going at the train station, so Fangxia doesn’t expect how much money she can sell. But the peaches are very juicy, so they can always be sold faster when there are more people.

The peaches are of good quality, and many people come to see them or ask about the price. Fangxia cannot speak and can only sign in sign language, but few people understand, so none of the peaches have been sold.

The onlookers did not understand sign language and gradually retreated. Fang Xia stood there holding Brother Shao. She did not know what to do for a moment. She was thinking about how to solve the problem when she saw a person on the steps at the entrance of the train station.

 Wei, Wei Lan!

  Not dead yet!

Fang Xia was overjoyed and stepped forward to hold her back. However, although Wei Lan was still alive, she was very different from before, as if she didn't recognize her.

The crowd surged, Brother Shao was so frightened that he cried, Fang Xia was pulled away, and then he saw another person in the crowd, and that person took Wei Lan away.

Yanyi often goes to the seventh team and has never interacted with female comrades. Maybe he doesn't know Fangxia, but Fangxia knows him.

 He told Gu Chao that Wei Lan was missing, and he accompanied Wei Lan's father to search everywhere...

 Fake, all fake…

 Wei Lan is always in his hands!

Seeing Wei Lan turn around and enter the station, Fang Xia felt hesitant and desperate. She didn't care about anything, picked up Brother Shao and carried the frame on his back, and hurried home.

After running for a while, the heavy weight of the frame really affected the speed. Fangxia simply threw the frame aside and took Shao Geer to the county bus terminal.

Even so, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon when we got home.

You Lan was sitting in the courtyard with Sister Han in her arms. Ji Fengyao was sitting next to him, holding a wilted lotus in his hand and shaking it. I don't know if he was teasing You Lan or Sister Han.

After Gu Chao left, Youlan's personality became immersed, which sometimes made people feel gloomy. Children in the village were less willing to play with her after they thought her temper had become strange.

 In addition, Youlan himself is not very willing to go out. He mostly spends a lot of time alone.

However, Ji Fengyao is different from the children in the village. Perhaps it is because he has followed Youlan since he was transferred here. It has become his habit to come to Youlan and stay with Youlan every day.

“Sister-in-law.” You Lan called out, and Ji Fengyao stood up and said hello, “Hello, aunt.”

Fang Xia had no time to visit. She felt sour and wiped away her tears. She took a few steps to the rocking chair and put Brother Shao down. Then she turned around and gave Youlan a lot of sign language.

Seeing her nervous expression, Youlan didn't dare to delay. He handed Sister Han to her, got up and ran out.

Ji Fengyao followed behind and stood up, "Youlan, Youlan, what did Aunt Fangxia say just now? Why are you in such a hurry? Run slower! There is moss growing in the alley!"

“Sister-in-law said there is something urgent and she wants to find Brother Yang to come back!”

The sound of footsteps could be heard from the bluestone slabs in the alley. In addition, the girl's voice was also extremely clear.

 In the past two months, it was like returning to the crisp and clear state a few months before the incident happened.

Ji Fengyao's steps slowed down for a moment, and a gentle breeze blew through the alley, taking away the heat and making him very cool.

The tips of the young man's raven black hair were blown by the wind, and his brain seemed to be awakened by the cool wind. In just a short moment, a small thought came to his mind.

 He will keep her.

 Keep her voice, her smile.

"Youlan, I'll go look for it with you, let's look for it separately!" The Gu Yang family was also allocated three acres of land. At that time, they were not as lucky as Gu Chao in the lottery. The land was in a small port, close to a water source, and the three acres of land were all connected together. of.

The three acres of land owned by Gu Yang's family are very scattered. One acre here, eight acres there, and two acres elsewhere.

 Nowadays, there is no large collective work. Every household is busy with their own land. The Gu Yang family's land is so scattered that it is hard to tell where the Gu Yang people are.

The two little ones circled Tian Geng several times, and finally found Gu Yang at the Chashan Bao.

　　Fang Xia has always been a person who reports good things but not bad things. If she can be so flustered, she may not just disappear.

When Gu Yang heard about the situation, he was so anxious that he threw away his **** and ran home.

 “What is it?”

 “Really? Are you sure? Did you see it with your own eyes?”

“Wei Zhiqing and Wei Lan are not dead, not dead!”

 In the courtyard, Gu Yang was agitated, Fang Xia's eyes were red, and she was signing rapidly one after another.

Fang Xia explained to Gu Yang the ins and outs of the matter, and what happened when she saw Yan Yi being taken away at the county train station, and asked Gu Yang to find an opportunity to explain the matter to Gu Chao.

At this time, Gu Chao was still looking for Wei Lan everywhere.

Gu Yang nodded repeatedly, "Okay. Okay! I'll tell Brother Chao, tell Brother Chao! Wei Lan, Wei Lan is not dead!"

 “Lan, sister Lan is not dead!”

 Gu Yang ran very fast and got home earlier than You Lan and Ji Fengyao. When You Lan and Ji Fengyao arrived home, they had already started talking.

You Lan just heard the key point of the matter.

The heavy pressure that had been weighing on her heart for the past few months relaxed, and Youlan couldn't help but cover her mouth and cry.

 But after the surprise, Youlan's mood became depressed again.

Sister Lan is not dead, but her brother has left. When he left, he didn’t say exactly where he was going. If he wanted to tell his brother the news, where would he go to find his people?

 You Lan's heart felt sour when she thought that Gu Chao didn't know the news yet and traveled all over the mountains and rivers in despair to find Wei Lan.

 After Gu Yang repeatedly assured Fang Xia, he suddenly woke up and remembered the problem.

Fang Xia looked at Gu Yang with wide eyes, tears sliding down her rough face.

Gu Yang was silent for a moment, then lowered his shoulders and tried to comfort him with a smile, "Brother Chao will definitely send a letter later. We can follow the address on the letter to look for it. We will definitely find it. Wait first. Let's wait first. Wait, huh?"

It can only be the.

Gu Yang's words subtly convinced two people.

You Lan pursed her lips, turned around and leaned against the courtyard wall without going in.

"You Lan..." Ji Fengyao frowned and stood aside looking at her with rapid breathing. He wanted to say something, but he was worried that he would say the wrong thing and make her sad again.

Youlan sobbed softly for a while, then suddenly raised her head, her dark deer eyes full of determination, "Sister Lan is not dead, I want to find her!"

"You? Are you going? You are still so young. If the time comes, even you...I don't agree!" Ji Fengyao's face turned red. He was already quieter and more delicate than the children in the village, more like a girl than a girl. , even more so now.

The age difference between the two is one and a half years, but in the past half year, Li and Ji Fengyao's food has improved, and now they are as tall as Youlan.

You Lan wiped her tears and raised her hand to caress Ji Fengyao's head. "Okay Fengyao, I said to go find Sister Lan. If you don't go now, you must wait for your brother to come back. I will go with him." Go find Sister Lan."

We must get Sister Lan back.

This is also grandma’s long-cherished wish!

You Lan was so busy thinking about things that she ignored the small dissatisfaction and grievances in Ji Fengyao's eyes.

 He is a boy, how can he be touched on the head casually?

 But if it’s a right orchid, just touch it!

   *

Haishi is a coastal city, and it is also a bipolar city. One part follows the current civilization and continues to advance, while the other part still retains the old site of civilization.

Guanhai Road is located at one end of the coastal port. Standing at the other end and looking this way, what comes into view is like an island mountain rising out of the sea. The trees are dense and the eaves of the deep houses are high, with some double eaves faintly exposed.

 After getting off the train, I took a rabbit head taxi for nearly two hours before arriving at my destination.

Yanyi got out of the car first, pushed the door wide, and reached out to help Wei Lan get out of the car.

While the driver was looking for money, Wei Lan held his still somewhat dusty hat with his hands together, raised his chin, and turned his face from side to side to look around.

The winding green brick road, with pine needle trees everywhere on both sides of the road, lush and green, and some even have huge pine towers, hanging heavily on the branches.

Looking farther and deeper, you can still see the eaves of majestic or simple houses among the treetops.

 It is a city that is half modern and half quaint.

 However, still not the slightest impression.

As the car drove away, Yanyi strode over. Wei Lan asked curiously: "Did I live here before?"

"Hmm." Yanyi took Wei Lan's hand and led her up the green brick path, "Don't think about it? It doesn't matter. I'll think about it later."

“It’s on the coast here. You can see the sea from home, but it’s not noisy and the air is very good. You’ll like it.”

"Oh." Wei Lan nodded, not speaking, but couldn't help but look around.

She had just taken a car from the Shanghai-North Bridge, and she had also noticed this place. At the time, she thought it was a scenic spot, but she didn't expect it to be her hometown.

Looking like a mountain from a distance, it still feels like a mountain when you are inside. The green brick paths wind through the mountain. The terrain is high and there is plenty of land. Most of the houses are small courtyards. Although they are simple, they are also exquisite.

Standing on the path, you can vaguely see the courtyards of low-lying houses beside you, with blue brick floors, flowerbeds made of bluestones and shellfish, with cabbage and green onions planted in them. There is also a fruitful citrus tree in the courtyard, yellow and orange. Orange, really beautiful.

Along the way, I could only hear the chirping of birds and the chirping of insects. The environment was quiet and the air was fresh. Wei Lan felt it carefully, and her pink lips curled up into a faint smile.

 She thinks she likes it here.

 “Does my home have a yard like this?”

"certainly."

“And there are trees like that? Hmm…citrus trees.”

 “This…probably.”

Yanyi's voice hesitated, and Wei Lan thought about it.

This is her home. Yanyi said that the last time they met was when they were thirteen years old, which was also four years ago. Even if they had been here, they should have forgotten it.

Wei Lan didn’t think too deeply. She curved her peach blossom eyes and smiled with a pleading charm: “If you don’t have one, can you plant one for me? Well... I don’t want a citrus tree, I want a grape vine, is that okay?”
