Chapter 6 Cousin Visits

Yanyan nodded, "Yes." She will definitely go home to see her father and mother.

"Yes, mom is going back to see her own father and mother."

"When will you be back?"

"No, dad will take you to find her later. When the weather is hot enough to wear a flowery skirt."

Obviously, coaxing didn't work.

When the little girl realized that her mother had left without her, she immediately cried out "wow".

The colleagues in the neighborhood felt that it was right.

This was like a family that had just divorced and the mother had left.

Fang Mingche didn't coax Yanyan at first, but let her cry.

The more someone coaxed the child, the harder she cried.

When her voice became quieter, he squatted down, picked her up and put her on his lap.

"Don't you let mom go back to see her own father and mother?"

"No."

Fang Mingche took the desk calendar and turned to July 10.

"Tear off one page a day. When you tear off this page, we will go to find mom." He folded the desk calendar for that day in half.

"It's so thick!" Yanyan said with a bitter face.

"We'll be there soon. Are you hungry? Dad will cook. How about noodles?"

Fang Mingche was not in the mood to do anything complicated at the moment.

The canteen of the village school only provided students with steamed food, but did not provide food for teachers.

Because the school had no money to subsidize.

Everyone thought that there were only a few families, so it would be better to cook at home.

Fang Mingche went to boil water and prepare to cook noodles. At the same time, he took out a large bowl and a small bowl to put the seasoning.

Yanyan sobbed a few times behind him, came over, hugged his legs, and moved with him. She refused to move even a step away.

Fang Mingche knew that she felt that her mother had abandoned her and felt very insecure. He

quickly softened his voice and coaxed: "Dad, give Yanyan more oil residue."

"Yeah." Yanyan nodded.

The father and daughter ate and rinsed the bowl. After a while, Fang Mingfeng came with a bag of White Rabbit milk candy.

"Yanyan, do you still remember who I am?"

Yanyan looked up and glanced at him, and said a little listlessly: "Fourth uncle--"

She was a relatively precocious girl.

Fang Mingche felt that if he could provide her with better learning conditions and let her not lose at the starting line, she would not be just a little bit above the first-tier line like in her previous life.

In the end, because she did not apply for the right major, she ended up in a second-tier university.

"Right, I am the fourth uncle. Take this and have it."

White Rabbit Milk Candy is definitely a very impressive gift in this era.

People in the supply and marketing cooperatives would hide the good stuff like milk powder, buy it for themselves and take it home or sell it to acquaintances.

White Rabbit Milk Candy can be regarded as a substitute. It is said that seven candies = a cup of milk.

It must be very difficult for ordinary people to buy it.

Yanyan looked at her father and reached out to take it when she saw her father nod. "Thank you, fourth uncle."

Fang Mingche said, "Put it on the desk, and Dad will give it to you every day."

You can't let the little girl eat as she pleases. Eating too much candy will spoil her taste. Then she won't be able to eat much of the main meal.

"Oh."

Fang Mingfeng looked at his distant niece who was moving into the house and was short and plump, and whispered, "Have you cried?"

It was still very obvious.

"Nonsense! I say, you came too quickly."

"Didn't you say it was just a fake divorce? Then there would be no need to give you time to lick your wounds. Mingche, Fourth Brother is anxious! Can you really drive?"

If he really can drive, this is a perfect substitute!

They are cousins ​​within five generations. They will definitely take care of each other when they go out, and they can trust each other with confidence.

With a formal job, he will not take his brother-in-law's position. In this way, he will not be complained by his wife.

It couldn't be more suitable!

Fang Mingche nodded, "You can only drive a small car. How about trying it now?"

This kind of thing is definitely not a matter of words.

"Okay!" It's good to have the basics of driving a small car, and be familiar with the differences in gears and brakes. The key is that the steering wheel is heavier and the field of vision has changed.

But he didn't have any other choice at the moment.

Fang Mingfeng drove the car provided by the boss to transport goods. Nowadays, private individuals are not allowed to have cars. I don't know where this person parked the car.

He and Fang Mingche went out to take a minibus to the county town, where the boss's truck was parked.

Fang Mingche asked his daughter for her opinion. She didn't want to go to the neighbor's house to play, and wanted to go together. Now she is really attached to her father!

So he took her along and put two White Rabbit candies in his pocket for her.

When they arrived at the place, Fang Mingfeng nodded when he saw Fang Mingche driving the Jiefang brand truck quite steadily. He

would get used to it after some practice. At most, he would drive on the good roads, and he would drive on the difficult roads by himself. The main thing is to find someone to take over the shift, as fatigue driving can easily lead to accidents.

Fang Mingfeng sat in the passenger seat, "Okay, you can make two trips with me during the winter vacation. One trip before and after the New Year, and rest during the New Year. I won't treat you badly! It takes eight days for a round trip, and I'll give you five yuan a day."

After a month, his brother-in-law can come back.

Fang Mingche said, "I can not ask for wages, but you have to lend me 700 yuan. Pay it back when school starts!"

Fang Mingfeng was shocked, 700 is not a small amount. Besides, he has to deposit 3,000 yuan with the boss every time he transports goods.

He doesn't even dare to carry 700 yuan of goods per trip. He is afraid of problems halfway, so he always takes less every time.

You won't get rich, but you won't lose everything.

Fang Mingche said, "If you lose it, I'll pay you back slowly."

He has a formal job, so what he said is still somewhat credible.

"Are you so short of money? The income of being a teacher is not bad."

Compared with farmers, teachers really earn a lot.

"I want to go to BJ, I must have money in my pocket."

Fang Mingfeng said, "If you don't lend it to me, you won't go?"

Fang Mingche smiled, but did not deny it. This trip is risky!

Fang Mingfeng thought about it, "Okay, I promise you. However, the five dollars a day is given by the boss. It's yours, you still take it."

If he takes an apprentice, the five dollars a day will belong to him for the first three months.

But now he is in a hurry to hire people, Mingche is helping him solve the problem. There is no need to be stingy!

Fang Mingche turned around and saw Yanyan watching TV with the boss's wife over there, sitting still. So he got familiar with the car as Fang Mingfeng said.

After half an hour, Fang Mingfeng asked the boss to come over and take a look. He also explained the relationship between the two, guaranteeing that Mingche would not say anything when he came back.

The boss saw that he was driving well, "Take him to deliver the stones in the car."

The car must not be idle, the back is full of stones from the river, to be delivered to the construction site. This is also convenient for Fang Mingche to practice. It is not enough to practice with an empty car!

When delivering goods, Fang Mingche drove, and Fang Mingfeng sat in the passenger seat and hugged Yanyan, who did not even watch TV and insisted on following.

After successfully delivering the goods and returning, the boss nodded.

The brothers took Yanyan to have a good meal in the county town, which must have been paid by Fang Mingfeng.

He also paid for the minibus, which was 30 cents per person.

"Mingche, everything else is easy to talk about. But you have to exercise, exercise. I am a little worried that you are a weak scholar."

Fang Mingche took care of his daughter while eating minced meat, "Don't worry. If you were really weak, how could you dare to go even though you knew how your brother-in-law was injured?"

On the way back, Fang Mingfeng got off the car first. He lived closer to the county town.

When Fang Mingche got off the car, it was getting dark. Yanyan also fell asleep leaning against her father.

Fang Mingche unbuttoned his military coat, wrapped her up in it, and buttoned it up. He continued to hold her in his arms and walked towards the village school.

This military coat was a second-hand item that he had asked a student who had served in the army a few years ago to help him get it. It was very warm.
