Chapter 17

Early the next morning, the group of them planned to leave.

Before leaving to pack her luggage, Pei Ling asked Aunt Chen worriedly, "Aunt Chen, are you really not going to the county with us?"

Aunt Chen shook her head, "No, the second son is much better. In two days, I'll take a ride with Uncle Li next door. It's not worthwhile to take your car without returning. I don't worry if there is no one at home."

Pei Ling nodded, and it was true that it was better for Aunt Chen to go to the county in the car of an acquaintance in the village with them. It would be more convenient to go back and forth on the same day.Pei Ling only took care of Aunt Chen, "Then after we leave, remember to take your second son to the town health center to see a doctor first."

"Okay." Aunt Chen smiled at Pei Ling, she was actually not as worried as before.The second son was able to get out of bed this morning, bouncing around with great air.Aunt Chen was very grateful to Pei Ling. Pei Ling had to leave, and she had nothing else to offer. She wanted to help Pei Ling pack her luggage, but Pei Ling only had a backpack with nothing else to pack, so she really didn't need Aunt Chen's help.Aunt Chen only got up early to bake a few more cakes, wrapped them in newspapers and stuffed them into Pei Ling's bag.

"These cakes are for you to take with you on the road."

"Aunt Chen, don't be so polite."

"It's you who are being polite to me, it's just a few cakes, what's so rare."

Pei Ling smiled and said, "Okay, then you put more, and when I see Da Chen, I'll give him more."

Aunt Chen opened her mouth even more when she heard it, and then sighed, "I don't know if he eats out by himself."

Pei Ling comforted him, "Don't worry, Aunt Chen, the boss treats us very well."

Hearing what Pei Ling said, Aunt Chen changed her worried expression, "Then Auntie will trouble you one more time, can I bring something to my eldest Chen?"

"Okay. Auntie." Pei Ling responded with a smile, still a little envious in her heart.When Aunt Chen went back to her room, she took a lot of things. While explaining to Pei Ling, she stuffed things into his bag until Pei Ling's bag couldn't be pulled out. Aunt Chen glanced at Pei Ling, Pei Ling smiled Without saying a word, Aunt Chen remembered that Pei Ling had no father or mother.

"Forget it." Aunt Chen took something out of her bag repentantly, "He thinks it's troublesome to bring him something back, and he says why bring these, you can buy them in rich cities."

Pei Ling said considerately, "He is afraid that you will be tired of preparing these things for him."

"Why am I tired? The old man has been dead for many years, and the second son and I are the only ones at home. We usually have nothing to do at home, so I just wonder if he is doing well alone." Aunt Chen suddenly remembered something, and asked Pei Ling, "Oh, Pei Ling, can your boss give him a vacation?"

"Let me ask." Pei Ling thought about Qiu Feilin's current matter, and it shouldn't be a problem to give his subordinates a big vacation. "It should be possible. Da Chen hasn't come back for a long time."

"Okay, then I won't bother you to bring him something. We'll talk about it when he comes back. You can use the things in the bag yourself."

"Mom." Aunt Chen's youngest son, the second son, hid behind the door and timidly poked his head out to look at Pei Ling.

"Didn't I tell you to fold the yellow paper?!" Aunt Chen said to Pei Ling with some embarrassment, "Little monkey, you are not sure."

Pei Ling smiled and waved at him, "What? You're worried that I'll renege on my debt and forget your car later?"

The second son saw Pei Ling waving at him, looked up at Aunt Chen, saw Aunt Chen nod to him, and the second son quickly came in and stuffed something into Pei Ling's hand and then left quickly.Pei Ling lowered her head and found a few packets of fudge.Aunt Chen explained, "I told you, I'm so stingy about a few packets of candy."

Pei Ling stepped up for Aunt Chen, "It's a child." After speaking, he looked at Fudge and thought of Sai Tianxian, who seemed to be a child too.

"Brother." The second son who went back and forth still hid behind the door and looked at Pei Ling, reminding him, "Don't forget my car."

"You child!" Aunt Chen angrily picked up the broom on the ground and pretended to hit him. The second son ran away quickly, and Pei Ling couldn't help laughing at it.

He hadn't felt this happy in a long time, and as soon as he felt happy, he wanted to share this happiness with others.Forget it with the brothers of the Cao family, ordinary people soaked in tobacco and alcohol can't look down on this simple and childish happiness.Pei Ling was walking towards the big room with candy in his hand, Sai Tianxian was very good.

While everyone was packing their luggage, only Sai Tianxian stayed idle in the room.He had nothing to clean up. Anyway, Pei Ling took care of his food and clothing.What happened last night made Pei Ling a little worried, so she guarded him all night, and when he woke up in the morning, Pei Ling took a closer look at his eyes, which were as clear as ever, and Pei Ling finally felt relieved.After feeding him and letting him sit in the room for a while, Pei Ling went back to the room to pack his luggage.

Sai Tianxian sat alone in the room for a while, pouted at Hua aggrievedly, and saw Pei Ling coming over, his face cleared up a little.

"Why, why are you here?"

"I haven't been away for a long time. Didn't I tell you that I packed my luggage and went, we are leaving today."

"Yes, are you leaving?" Hearing the news, the light on Sai Tianxian's face was covered by downcast eyes, "Going, where?"

People are always afraid of strangers, let alone someone like Sai Tianxian who has nowhere to go.I'm used to living in this country courtyard, I just feel that it's good now, if I let him change places suddenly, I can only feel uneasy.

Pei Ling guessed that he would do this, stepped forward to shake the fudge in his hand, "Do you want to eat it?"

Pei Ling saw his long and dense eyelashes fluttering twice, and then looked up at herself. There was eagerness in his clear eyes, and he silently urged Pei Ling to give it to him.Pei Ling smiled and unwrapped the package, put a piece of fudge to his mouth, "It's just a change of place, don't be afraid, I'm here."

"I'm not afraid, just, just..."

At this time, Aunt Chen walked in with the stacked clothes, seeing the scene in front of her, she was hesitating whether to come in or not.Pei Ling noticed Sai Tianxian's eyes glued to Aunt Chen's body, and beckoned Aunt Chen to come in.

Aunt Chen put a pile of clothes beside the bed, "Just now I packed your bags for you, and you don't have many clothes. Doesn't this kid have no clothes to wear? I think my Da Chen still has some old clothes at home. If you don't mind ..."

"I don't dislike it." Pei Ling looked at the clothes on the bed, thought about Sai Tianxian's thin shoulders, and blurted out, "It's just a little big."

Sai Tianxian was just happy when he saw the clothes, looked up at Aunt Chen and asked, "For me?"

"Yes." Aunt Chen nodded with a smile.

Pei Ling looked at Sai Tianxian happy because of a pile of old clothes, and thought to himself that he was happier than when he gave candy.But Pei Ling could see clearly that sugar was comfort, while clothes were unexpected concern.

Or to put it another way, it's not the clothes that make him happy, but Aunt Chen's mother's image.Pei Ling felt the same way and secretly made up her mind that when the matter was settled, she had to send Sai Tianxian home as soon as possible.He seemed to miss his family very much.

"Then Aunt Chen, please find a bag and help him pack it."

"Oh, good."

Sai Tianxian looked at Aunt Chen's back, and asked reluctantly, "Really, do you want to go?"

"Well. This is not your home. Let's leave early to..."

It seemed that Pei Ling's words were too straightforward, and Sai Tianxian was a little unhappy, so Pei Ling could only say tactfully, "Your family members should be waiting for you."

The strange thing is that when Sai Tianxian empathized with Aunt Chen, he was still a little happy, but when he really mentioned his family, he was not only confused but also sad.Seeing him like this, Pei Ling didn't know what to do, so she could only pat his head and tell him that everything would be fine.Then, when Sai Tianxian raised his head slightly puzzled, he brought another soft candy to his mouth, and the matter was settled.

After everyone packed up, someone had come to call Pei Ling.Pei Ling responded, squatted on Sai Tianxian's back and walked out.When she was about to leave, Aunt Chen hurried over and brought the bag she had prepared to Pei Ling.Pei Ling felt a little ashamed when she saw the children's schoolbag in the shape of a little dinosaur.

Aunt Chen carried the schoolbag in front of Pei Ling again, "There are no other bags at home, this bag was bought by Da Chen from the city for the second son."

Pei Ling didn't want to take advantage of others, "Auntie, if the second son knows that you gave away the schoolbag he bought for him, he will feel very uncomfortable."

Aunt Chen was very generous, "Hey, he doesn't like this style anymore, Da Chen promised to buy him some kind of chivalrous one."

Pei Ling reluctantly accepted it, "Thank you then. Auntie, I don't have hands right now, so please carry it on his back."

Pei Ling was carrying Sai Tianxian on his back, and Sai Tianxian was carrying a small dinosaur schoolbag with holes on his back. The two of them, who were not eye-catching at first, suddenly attracted their attention.

"Why are you being polite to me?" Aunt Chen put the bag on Sai Tianxian's back very enthusiastically, and finally carried the schoolbag on her back, and gave Pei Ling a look, "There is also candy in this bag, and the bedside one you forgot to take away." I also put things in for you."

Aunt Chen was very proud when she said this. Pei Ling had never done anything wrong, but he actually dropped something when he left. Now Aunt Chen felt that she had helped him, and the favor she had received before was finally repaid.There is back and forth, and the intimacy between people is obvious.At this moment, Aunt Chen was winking at Pei Ling like a human being, which made Pei Ling feel uncomfortable, and Sai Tianxian on his back also tilted his head strangely, staring at Aunt Chen.

It took a while for Pei Ling to remember what he had forgotten, and it was the topical medicinal oil prescribed by the doctor.It was useless before, and Pei Ling thought that it might not be useful in the future. At that time, he put it aside casually, and later a lot of troubles happened, so he forgot about it.Unexpectedly, Aunt Chen thoughtfully put it away.

Pei Ling smiled unnaturally at this moment, her cheeks were a little stiff, "Thank you so much."

Cao San'er and others were waiting in front of the car. Uncle Cao and Cao Hong had already boarded the car. They planned to go to the county this time to check on Cao Hong.Only Pei Ling and the others could get in the car and leave.

But Pei Ling stood at the gate and Aunt Chen chattered for a long time without any intention of crossing the gate, Cao San'er became a little impatient, "Why are you talking so much when you send the girl out?"

Si'er on the side listened, pursed his lips and slapped Cao San'er with his arm, "Don't tell me it's a bit similar, do you remember that when my aunt went out, things were prepared and carried on her back, and grandma grabbed them before going out. Nagging my son-in-law, I almost covered up..."

There was a "crack" in the distance, and I don't know who actually set off a firecracker. Scared Cao San and Si'er shrank their necks, looked back at each other and smiled, and it was even more like setting off firecrackers.Si'er picked up the words he had just disconnected, "It's almost a red hijab."

Cao San'er laughed as soon as he recalled, "It was still lively in the countryside. My aunt got married, and the family set up thousands of firecrackers and hundreds of fireworks. When I came to the city, I didn't get fart. The preparations were like that at home. Uncle Qiu is still showing his face. His family is prosperous, so he looks down on us old-fashioned hats. It's really wronged for my aunt, and I took care of the enemy's family. In the end, the vixen picked up a ready-made one. Auntie is really Pitiful."

"Keep your voice down." Si'er reminded him, "Uncle is not happy to hear this. If Auntie hadn't tried her best to help the Qiu family take care of it, we still don't know which cave door we are squatting at now."

It's a man who doesn't like to hear others say that his family depends on women, whether it's a wife or a sister.Especially the woman who once supported her natal family is gone, and now she is still sneering in front of that wolf-hearted dog who married a new lover just after his wife died. There is no guilt towards the woman, but it is even more difficult to mention it, for the last bit of shaky self-esteem.

Cao San'er glanced at the car, and changed the subject sullenly, "Speaking of which, we are not the only ones who rely on my aunt to get out of the mountain. I remember that some grandma also entered the city with the help of the motorcade that my aunt got married."

The kiss was made a long time ago, thanks to Mr. Qiu, he still remembers it, and he said everything according to the old etiquette.In fact, the locals love to hang out in groups. Mr. Qiu, who came to settle down from afar, felt that since he couldn't squeeze in, he might as well develop his own circle, so he simply brought people from his hometown.Only then was Erye Qiu forced to drive all the way to the mountains to get married.

On that trip, the Cao family came out with many younger generations, and the Qiu family made arrangements for them generously. It's a pity that Mr. Qiu has a good eye for picking a daughter-in-law, but not a good eye for picking a helper.It's also a bad habit in the mountains. Boys are important, girls are secondary. Naturally, they beat up the extra girls to gain popularity. On the contrary, they are more neat and straightforward than the boys at home. It's a pity that they are out of the mountain. tone.

"Hey, I remembered, is she the grandmother of the Yue family?" Cao San'er slapped her forehead and became excited, "Yes, I remember it was the grandmother of Yue from Xitou. Speaking of which, the Yue family used to be very good with us, didn't they?" ? When are we going to play in the past? I don’t think there is any good way out of staying in the enemy’s house.”

"Don't mention it!" Si'er interrupted him, "Did you forget that after the death of Uncle Qiu, our family will not communicate?!"

Cao San'er took back the words angrily, "I forgot about this."

Pei Ling came here with Sai Tianxian on her back at this time, and just happened to hear their conversation, and heard them mention the death of Uncle Qiu, and recalled what Cao Hong said to him when he was not stupid, and for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong. It was comfortable, and after a while, I realized that it was not because he felt uncomfortable, but because the old injury under his ribs felt a little uncomfortable.It's really strange recently, why do old injuries from a long time always break out from time to time?

"Hey."

Cao San'er's depressed mood didn't last long, and he was aroused by a pair of high-heeled shoes turned out from the back of the car.

Xiaohong smiled and asked Cao Sanfei, "Where are you going?"

Cao San told her about everything that the city government didn’t have, “Go to the county.”

"Can that take me a ride?"

"Are you going to the county too? By the way, last time when your sisters left, they didn't see you and asked you. Are you not going to work in the hair salon?"

Pei Ling looked up and saw Xiao Hong asked, "Are you going to the county too?"
