A young educated youth who repays his gratitude

"Boom."

There were continuous bursts of thunder, and Bai Lele woke up startled from sleep, "Is it raining?"

He rubbed his eyes, muttered something and sat up, but was held down by Huo Changqing.

"It's raining." Huo Changqing put down the curtains, looked at his watch again and said, "It's only past three o'clock, lie down and sleep."

"Yeah." Bai Lele was in a daze, not fully awake yet, "So sleepy."

He fell asleep in a blink of an eye, Huo Changqing was still sitting, frowning slightly listening to the wind and rain outside the window.

With such a heavy rain, the road will definitely be difficult tomorrow, Bai Lele, Changping Changan and the others.

Still have to go to school.

Huo Changqing thought about it, put on his clothes lightly, got off the kang and went to other places.

When Bai Lele woke up again, it was still raining outside, and the sky was dark without any light.

If I hadn't looked at my watch to know the time, I wouldn't have noticed that it was past five o'clock in the morning, and I would have thought it was a dark night.

Bai Lele went out to wash up, Changping Chang'an and the others also got up, looking worried at the heavy rain outside.

"Oh!" Changan sighed, "It's raining too much, it's not easy to ride a bicycle!"

"It's not that I haven't met before." Chang Ping glanced at him, "No matter how old you are, you have to go to school."

Seeing Chang An sighing, Bai Lele couldn't help laughing and said, "Rainy days are not common, you haven't gotten used to it yet?"

"It's not that I'm not used to it." Changan pouted and said, "It's just that those who walk to school will suffer. All the way to school, not to mention wet shoes, and feet sticky with mud."

"You are worrying unnecessarily." Huo Changqing patted him, "Hurry up and eat, don't be sad here."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Bai Lele, "Don't ride your bicycle today, I'll take you to school later."

"Ah?" Bai Lele was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, you can send us off."

He thought for a while and said, "Why don't I drive the tractor to save you from making another trip."

It takes almost two hours to go back and forth!

"No need." Huo Changqing said decisively, "I'll deliver it."

Bai Lele didn't object either, knowing that Huo Changqing was worried, after all, the road was slippery in rainy days and the dirt road was full of potholes.

Even the tractor is not easy to drive.

"During this time." Bai Lele asked: "How is Xingyi's business? If not, take a break."

"It's not bad." Huo Changqing said while filling the rice, "Usually, it costs two to thirty yuan, but it's better than forty or fifty yuan. There's no need to rest."

"I earn a lot." Bai Lele was happy, and smiled slightly: "I bought this tractor, and I can earn some money every day."

He bought the tractor to help Huo Changqing with farm work, but he didn't expect to earn a lot from the tractor.

The job of building roads and delivering materials has already been done, and now I can only find some odd jobs outside every day.

For a while, Bai Lele was afraid that he would not be able to earn Huo Xingyi and the others' wages.

Now that he knows that he can earn dozens of yuan a day, he is very happy and feels that this tractor is really the right one.

It paid back in less than half a year.

After Bai Lele and the others finished their meal, Huo Changqing went to the backyard to feed the pigs, while Changping Chang'an and the others scrambled to help feed the chickens.

Bai Lele wasn't idle either, so she took out her raincoat and boots, so she could change into them when she left.

At this moment, Baowa woke up, rubbed her eyes and came out of the West Room, panting, and ran over when she saw Bai Lele.

"Father." Bao Wa'er plunged into Bai Lele's arms, "Are you leaving?"

He knew that Bai Lele was going to work today, and it would be a few days before he saw Bai Lele again, so he felt a little bit reluctant.

"Yeah." Bai Lele kissed his little cheek, and said with a smile, "Baby baby, will you send daddy to work?"

"Ah?" Bao Wa'er's eyes widened, eyes full of confusion, she tilted her head and asked, "Should I send Dad to work?"

"Yes." Bai Lele poured water for him to wash his face, "Is Bao Wa going? If you go, you have to wash your face and eat quickly, or you won't be able to catch up if it's late."

"Go." Baowa'er immediately recovered, and immediately squatted on the ground to wash her face, "I'll send Dad to work."

Bai Lele served him rice, and watched him eat obediently, her heart softened.

This is the feeling of home.

When Huo Changqing and the others finished their work, and Bao Wa'er's meal was almost finished, Bai Lele looked at the time.

Five past six.

"Let's go." Bai Lele put on rain boots and a raincoat, and said to Huo Changqing, "Let Baowa sit in the front with you, and we sit in the back."

There is a carport in front, and Baowa will not suffer if it is not exposed to rain.

Just waiting for him to go out, the moment he saw the tractor, he stopped immediately.

He looked at Huo Changqing in surprise, pointed at the tractor and asked, "When did it get fixed?"

Last night, the carriage was still bare, but now a shed has been built to keep out the wind and rain.

How could Bai Lele not be surprised.

"It was in the morning." Huo Changqing said lightly, "You and Chang Ping took Bao Wa in the carriage, and Chang An followed me in the front."

He thought for a while and said: "There are more than a dozen children in the brigade going to junior high school, let's send them together."

"Okay." Bai Lele agreed, but felt sorry for Huo Changqing, and complained, "Why didn't you call me?"

He remembered that he was awakened by thunder in the middle of the night, and Huo Changqing woke up at that time, so he must not have fallen asleep again like him.

Instead, they came out to build this shed.

"It looks like your eyes are dark now." Bai Lele reached out to touch the dark spots under Huo Changqing's eyes, and said, "You must make up for it when you come back, and don't do anything else."

"Understood." Huo Changqing smiled, and gave Bai Lele a push, "Hurry up and get in the car, don't be late."

Bai Lele jumped onto the tractor, picked up Bao Wa'er, and sat on her lap while holding him.

Looking at the dense carport, Bai Lele sighed to Chang Ping: "Your brother is really careful."

"He's like this." Chang Ping knew that many people said that Huo Changqing had a bad temper, "Just do it and don't talk about it."

But only those who have frequent contact with him know how considerate and considerate Huo Changqing is, especially caring for others.

Chang Ping said: "Everyone says my brother is a scolding person, but they don't think about it. After a long time, they come to look for any trivial matter. Who will not be bothered after a long time."

It is said that Huo Changqing has a hot temper and is always irritable, who knows his difficulties.

"Let me tell you." Chang Ping's expression was cold, and his words were even colder, "It should have been a long time ago to not care about anything."

He didn't have that patience, if he switched identities with Huo Changqing, Chang Ping would definitely not give anyone's face.

Bai Lele: "..."

He knew that Changping was cold, but he didn't expect that there were still many resentments hidden in his heart, which should be for Huo Changqing.

It's just that he can't see through Chang Ping's thoughts, and it's hard to say anything at this time, for fear that Chang Ping will think more.

Just smiled and persuaded: "Your elder brother has a good heart, we can't force him to do nothing."

"Let him go." Chang Ping shrugged, looking indifferent, "As long as Big Brother is happy."

He just knew that it wasn't that the whole family didn't come in, that Bai Lele's heart and eyes were all about the big brother.

He is kind-hearted and soft-tempered, he will never do anything that would make his elder brother unhappy, and he doesn't want to make plans for Bai Lele either.

Even if he is for their good.

"You don't have to worry." Bai Lele looked at his face, thought for a moment and said, "Didn't your elder brother say that you won't meddle in other people's business in the future?"

He said with certainty: "Even if it's for us, he won't take on so many things anymore, and he will put all his thoughts at home."

This is Huo Changqing's guarantee.

Although he didn't say it clearly, after Huo Zhiheng's farce, Bai Lele's attitude of alienation was clear.

Huo Changqing's action of drawing a clear line with the brigade without any hesitation convinced Bai Lele that he was a man of his word.

Bai Lele and Chang Ping looked at each other, didn't speak for a long time, but finally they smiled in unison.

Put before your eyes the fact that the two people tacitly stood on the same line that day.

"I hope you and Big Brother will not be disturbed." Chang Ping said in a rather good mood with his brows stretched, "Live a good life."

"Thank you." Bai Lele smiled brightly. He understood Chang Ping's meaning, "Your elder brother knows, so he won't blame us."

After all, they are the family members who have loved Huo Changqing for a lifetime.

……

The tractor stopped at the gate of the brigade, and Bai Lele poked his head out, and saw a lot of people standing densely.

Most of them had a plastic sheet on their head to keep out the rain.

There were two cars parked at the gate of the brigade, a horse cart and a mule cart, which seemed to be taking these children to school.

It was raining heavily, and the sky was not bright at all. Parents were also worried about these children.

Many people followed and stood at the gate of the brigade to see them off.

They are also wearing plastic sheets, or wearing a piece of clothing, such as umbrellas, raincoats, and rain boots.

"Still poor!" Bai Lele sighed in his heart: even if he lived a little better these few years, rain gear like these were ignored.

"Go to the middle school in the town and get on the bus." Huo Changqing frowned, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Hurry up, don't be late."

"Hey." A man happily replied, and hurriedly turned to greet his children, "Hurry up, get on your uncle's tractor."

In fact, he didn't need to say anything, as soon as Huo Changqing finished speaking, someone ran to the rear compartment of the tractor.

"Uncle." The man smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It's a matter of convenience." Huo Changqing's expression was indifferent, and he just nodded slightly when he heard the others thank him.

In the past, in this situation, he would say a few words, or scold these adults a few times.

Blame them for not having umbrellas and raincoats for the kids.

But now that he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, Huo Changqing suppressed his temper and said nothing, let's go about our lives in the future.

Bai Lele watched each and every one of the children get up wet, and move into the carriage.

Make room for more.

He looked at these children's feet, most of them were bare feet wearing straw sandals, and Bai Lele felt a chill coming from his feet.

He held Baowa in his arms tightly, and looked at him wearing a small raincoat and rain boots on his feet.

I thought silently in my heart: being poor is also one aspect, it just depends on whether some parents value this aspect.

Bai Lele remembered that when he was in school and it was raining, many of his classmates didn't have umbrellas or raincoats.

As messed up as these kids are.

"do not move."

"I'll take a look."

Bai Lele turned her head, and saw a boy reaching out to touch someone else's raincoat.

"Your raincoat is really nice." The boy was covered with a piece of plastic sheeting, and water dripped from his body. "I wish I had one."

"Then you buy it." The man said: "Your family is not poor, you can afford to buy a few."

Bai Lele's ears moved slightly, feeling that the voice was familiar, and when he looked up, he happened to see an acquaintance.

"Dahu." Bai Lele greeted him, and asked with a smile, "Your raincoat is not bad, it can keep you warm while protecting you from the wind and rain."

Dahu smiled "hehe", and said with some embarrassment, "I just bought it not long ago."

He cherished the raincoat on his body, and looked at the rain boots on his feet. It was all because of Huo Changqing's help.

Only a few of their brothers and sisters can live such a good life.

Bai Lele just smiled and didn't answer, looking at the boys and girls in the carriage.

They all looked at him cautiously.

Bai Lele's heart moved slightly: It seems that the shadow of last time is still there, and many people may not have forgotten it.

He closed his eyes slightly, leaned on one side and fell asleep, not wanting to bring pressure to these children.

After all, those are things for adults.

The boy who was touching the tiger's raincoat just now breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Bai Lele was not angry.

She winked at the others, smiled from ear to ear, and glanced at Bai Lele quietly.

That means: look, not angry.

The adults in the family have long warned their children not to be naughty when they meet Bai Lele.

Make an already frozen relationship worse.

He couldn't hold back just now, when he saw Dumb's raincoat and boots, he was envious.

He didn't keep his mouth shut.

Bai Lele closed her eyes, listening to the faint sound of breathing, these children were all extremely quiet.

No one spoke or played mischief.

He was amused: Is he so unreasonable?Everyone has become so cautious.

Bai Lele couldn't help opening her eyes, teasing Baowa in her arms, teaching him English words.

Let him talk more.

When everyone looked over, Bai Lele thought about it, smiled and asked them how they were learning English.

Do you feel strenuous?

This time it became a topic, and these lively boys and girls stopped pretending to be obedient.

Chattering with Bai Lele.

Most of them are complaining, English is not easy to learn, and their grades are not very good.

Most of these children are very biased.

Only a small part is okay, but my English is not very good, and I feel very distressed.

Bai Lele thought for a while, and said involuntarily: "Reading more and memorizing is the basics. Another thing you can try is to combine Chinese memorization, the memory will be deeper."

He told these children what he had learned, hoping to be of some help to them.

Time passed quickly, the tractor stopped at the gate of the town middle school, and Bai Lele and the others got off the car.

Huo Changqing sat on the driver's seat of the tractor, looking at Bai Lele with heavy eyes. The separation lasted for a few days.

Counting it, he and Bai Lele wouldn't see each other a few times a month.

"Be careful on the road." Bai Lele rolled her eyes, hiding her reluctance, and said softly, "I'll be back in a few days."

"Yeah." Huo Changqing's eyes fell on him, and finally met Bai Lele's eyes, "You also take care of yourself, and add some clothes when it's cold."

Bai Lele turned her head and saw that the children from the brigade had already entered the school gate, and even Changping and Changan had left.

He quietly stretched out his hand, covered it with his body, and grabbed Huo Changqing's sleeve.

She pursed her lower lips and said, "I want to eat hot pot, it's so cold!"
