Transport life

The Spring Festival is only more than a month away, and some of the workers who have been working outside with the construction team all year round have returned to their hometowns.Several uncles were playing cards at the entrance of the village. As soon as Yan Lingling entered the village, they all greeted "Go home".

Yan Lingling simply explained that it was just a vacation, and returned home briskly.

Grandpa knew she was coming back, so he waited in the courtyard early, the courtyard door was wide open, and when he saw her, he laughed until he lost his eyes: "Oh, my Lingling is back."

Yan Lingling leaned closer to Grandpa, dragging the suitcase in one hand and leading him into the house with the other: "Grandpa, didn't you only come back in summer, only two or three months."

"It's been almost four months. The next time I come back is the Chinese New Year." When Grandpa said this, Yan Lingling felt a little disappointed. For the old man, how many four months did they have?Thinking of this, coming back for three or four days is more meaningful than going out with Lin Yi, after all, she and Lin Yi still have a long time to accompany.

Yan Lingling hung up the new clothes that she bought for her grandfather for the Chinese New Year. Although the old man said she didn’t need them, she always thought that she needed to wear new clothes for the Chinese New Year. She owed a lot of debts in the past few years and hadn’t bought new clothes for the New Year for many years. It doesn't matter if the clothes can be worn, I still feel a little wronged and sad occasionally.In the past two years, the situation has improved a little bit. Yan Lingling doesn't want to wrong herself anymore. Anyway, she has the hands and strength to make money, and the more than 100 clothes on the Internet are also good-looking. It is more than enough to wear for a year or two.

It is said that the taste of the Spring Festival is getting weaker and weaker, but what should be prepared in the countryside still needs to be prepared.Yan Lingling didn't stop after arriving home. First, he took his grandfather to the bank in the town to see how much money he had left on the bank card this year, and put it together with the deposit in his hand, and repaid the money as agreed when he borrowed the money. Repay the money in the amount, and when I went to repay the money, I brought fruits along with me. They were all people I knew in the village. The uncles, aunts, grandparents, and grandparents have become accustomed to the honesty of the Yan family. Little chatter.

After returning home for dinner, I discussed with my grandfather what else to do. The black tiles of the tile-roofed house that used to raise pigs on one side of the yard fell off, and I had to find someone to replace it. After Lingling left, Grandpa only needs to look at it and put it away, there is no other special preparation.When he was about to go to bed, Yan Lingling remembered that his grandfather should have almost used up his medicine. When he asked, there was still more than a month's supply. After calculating, he would take it until the Chinese New Year. He simply waited for the Spring Festival holiday before returning to continue the next course of treatment.

Yan Lingling lay back on the bed. It was exactly ten o'clock. Most people in the village had already gone to bed, and the young man felt that it was still early.

After receiving the news that Yan Lingling had arrived home safely, Lin Yi didn't send any more messages to disturb her.After thinking about it, Yan Lingling dialed the phone, and was picked up shortly after it rang. Lin Yi's voice on the phone was a little tired.

Lin Yi is in a bad mood today.She followed the client for more than half a month, but for some reason she was transferred to a colleague in another group.In the two years since she joined the company, this is not the first time she has been robbed of a client, but it is the biggest client robbed.She didn't tell Yan Lingling about it, but simply explained that it was a matter of work, and then dragged the topic away.

Yan Lingling knew that Lin Yi didn't like talking about work with her.Although it is mentioned occasionally, it is never discussed in depth.Unlike Yan Lingling, she shared everything. Lin Yi knew the family history of Brother Mi's fortune, the character of Brother Yun's sister Mi, and even the details of Ran Ming being overthrown by odd jobs.Yan Lingling didn't know about the leaders and colleagues around Lin Yi. She asked about it before, and when Lin Yi was working overtime, she pointed to the triangular tower on the plan and asked what the special meaning of the above description was, but Lin Yi said a few words Bring it over.

Lin Yi said that she didn't need to understand these things, but she would help Lingling read them if she really met them.

She was right, Yan Lingling, who was just asking casually, accepted it.

After saying good night to each other, Yan Lingling threw his mobile phone aside and fell asleep. The next day he followed his grandfather to the brick shop to buy tiles, and then went to the neighboring village to find a house builder to make an appointment to build the house. After buying the meat and raw materials for making pickles on the Internet, and then returning home to marinate the meat and vegetables, one day passed.When the grandfather and grandson were sitting at the table having dinner, the grandfather suddenly told Yan Lingling that he had heard from Dr. Deng in the town that his mother was sick and asked her to go see her tomorrow.

Xiaoma means aunt in the village.In the second year after Yan Lingling's father passed away, my mother married to a neighboring village. At that time, everyone in the village said that my mother was good and took care of Yan Lingling and her grandparents for more than a year. Village, grandparents asked Yan Lingling to call my mother's husband uncle.After my mother remarried, Yan Lingling called her mother when she first saw her. As she grew older, her mother also had a child of her own. During the Spring Festival when she was nine years old, Yan Lingling followed her grandma to her mother's house to pay New Year's greetings in front of her uncle. In front of her, she changed her name to Xiaoma.

The two families have been in contact for so many years. When Yan Lingling dropped out of high school and went home to take care of her grandfather, her mother cried in her arms, and even her uncle cried, but the uncle's family was not rich. There is a child, who can't help her materially, and can only let the little mother come over to help her occasionally.

Grandpa told Yan Lingling's little mother that she was seriously ill. She stayed in the hospital for more than half a month, and she also stayed in bed for half a month when she came back.

In the early morning of the next day, Yan Lingling went to the town to buy milk, fruit and good oatmeal corn paste and other supplementary food. He originally wanted to withdraw 1000 yuan in cash, but after thinking about it, he took [-] yuan, which was too much. Unable to carry it, she went to the little mother's house in the neighboring village with a small backpack on her back.

Although it was a neighboring village, it took forty minutes to walk there from the town, and it was almost ten o'clock when we arrived at Xiaoma's village.Those who do farm work in the village have gone to do farm work, and those who go out to work and ride motorcycles are not at home.As soon as Xiaoma's house appeared in sight, I saw a young and thin boy standing at the door playing with a motorcycle. It was Xiaoma's eldest son Dongyang.Dongyang is 20 years old this year. He didn't go to school after graduating from junior high school. He went home and joined a car repair shop. Now he works as a car repair master in Tongcheng City.When he saw Yan Lingling, Dongyang waved his hand to greet her, and then shouted into the room, "Dad, Mom, Grandma, Sister Lingling is here."

When Yan Lingling stood in front of the door, all four members of the family were there to pick her up.

Yan Lingling remembers visiting her mother during the Spring Festival when she was visiting relatives. She was full of energy. Ten months later, she lost a lot of weight, her hair turned gray, her complexion was yellowish, and her eyes were slightly swollen.She suddenly felt that she couldn't grasp everything around her. Grandpa was old, so was young mother, and even the strong uncle's back was slightly bent.

The little mother took Yan Lingling's hand and shed a tear.He was scolded lightly by his uncle and Dongyang: "People come to see you, why are you shedding tears. It's almost the twelfth lunar month, don't shed tears."

Yan Lingling suppressed the choking in her throat, smiled and shook her head and said it was nothing.Take the shopping out of the pannier.Uncle and Dongyang stood next to each other and picked them up one by one. My mother kept saying, "Oh, I spent a lot of money to buy so many", but Yan Lingling blocked them.

When guests come, the house will always be more lively.Taking advantage of the time when the mother and uncle entered the kitchen, Yan Lingling pulled Dongyang to ask about the condition of the mother. The 20-year-old boy was no longer as shy as he was when he was a child. He leaned against the door and shook his head: "It's cancer, but it was discovered earlier. An operation was performed. We told her and my younger brother that the tumor was benign, and she believed it."

Dongyang’s younger brother, Dongjun, is 17 years old this year and is in high school in the city. During the Spring Festival this year, Yan Lingling wrapped him a red envelope worth 800 yuan. The boy accidentally revealed that he wanted to buy two pairs of shoes with 200 yuan. One hundred equals a month's living expenses.Yan Lingling remembered that Yan'er's living expenses were 800 yuan a month in high school. After hearing Dong Jun's words, she was very sad. She bought him two new pairs of shoes online and asked him to use the [-] yuan as living expenses.

Although uncle and Dongyang earn money, Dongyang has grown up, and his mother is sick again. Yan Lingling can imagine that her mother's family will have a hard life for a few years. She stands in front of Dongyang, who is a head taller than herself, like a child. I also patted this brother on the shoulder and said thank you for your hard work.

Dongyang pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly: "You have worked hard too."

After having lunch at my mother's house, and spending some time in the sun with my mother and uncle, Yan Lingling handed over 400 yuan to my mother. The 2000 yuan was for my mother, and the 400 yuan was originally for Dongjun, but my mother handed it over when he was not at home.The uncle rubbed his hands stiffly, talking about so many things that couldn't be done, and the little mother shed tears again. Yan Lingling had no choice but to comfort the two elders, and gave the two hundred in his pocket to the grandma who couldn't recognize anyone on crutches. Only then bid farewell to them.Dongyang drove her back on a motorcycle, and when the motorcycle started, Yan Lingling turned around and waved to her mother and uncle. The houses and figures became smaller and smaller. She retracted her eyes and sighed in her heart. She saw her mother only once. once.

Halfway through the motorcycle, Yan Lingling received a call from her grandpa. The wind blew past her ears quickly, and the phone buzzed. Grandpa asked her when she would go home. She thought it was the tile workers who had arrived. The mobile phone shouted loudly on the road, sitting on Dongyang's motorcycle, and arrived in a few minutes.Before hanging up the phone, she vaguely heard Grandpa telling someone to come back soon.

The motorcycle stopped at the entrance of the village, and Yan Lingling got out of the car.Dongyang was going to the town to do errands, so he rejected her proposal to sit in the house.After the two said goodbye, Yan Lingling walked home with an empty backpack on her back. She saw Granny Wu picking vegetables in the field next to her. She ran over to chat with Granny Wu. Granny Wu stuffed her with a handful of leeks, but she couldn't refuse. , Take the leeks and go home.As soon as she reached the gate of the courtyard, she heard a burst of laughter in the room. She pushed open the door, looked at Grandpa and Lin Yi who were sitting in the courtyard, and almost dropped the leek in her hand: "Lin Yi?! Why are you here?"

"Why, don't you welcome me?"

Yan Lingling's rapidly beating heart didn't stop until he put down his things and sat face to face with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi, who had been here for almost an hour, was already familiar with grandpa, and grandpa guessed that she was the friend who congratulated him on his health and sent two hundred red envelopes back then.Lin Yi repeatedly praised grandpa for his good memory, which made grandpa laugh non-stop.Yan Lingling looked on in surprise, she didn't expect Lin Yi to get along with the old man so naturally.

The tiling workers arrived soon. They checked the condition of the house and said that it could be finished in two hours.Yan Lingling put the buns and water on the wooden table in the yard. Grandpa stayed at home, and she took Lin Yi to the village and town.Grandpa smiled and told them to leave quickly. The two walked out of the yard one after the other. They met Granny Wu on the way and helped her bring a basket of vegetables home.

There are few people on the cement road to the town.Yan Lingling took Lin Yi's hand and asked why she came.

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, then interlocked his fingers with the people around him, and said, "Take the high-speed rail for two or three hours, it's just the weekend, I'll come out to play, and I'll pick you up by the way."

Yan Lingling was sweet in her heart, she didn't express the joy in her heart, she looked around, no one had a car or a house, she kissed the corner of Lin Yi's mouth with one side of her head, like a dragonfly touching water, she let go after kissing Lin Yi's hand, ran a few steps forward, then turned around and smiled at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was tickled by the kiss at the corner of her mouth and the smiling face of the person in front of her. She chased after and grabbed Yan Lingling, but Yan Lingling dodged away with a smile.

The two nearly 30-year-olds, like teenagers, chased each other on the concrete road, laughing happily.This joy lasted until night, when the small lights were turned on in the closed room, the two of them were stuck together on the bed, the sweat dripped from the skin, enjoying the joy that belonged to adults.

In the dead of night, the two embraced each other and whispered: "Lingling, I like this place. When we get old, we can come back here."

"Okay."

"I'm not joking."

"Me neither, as long as you want, I will be with you."
