The next morning, the Zheng family set out early and headed for the county station.

"Oh, it's you guys?" The conductor on the morning bus looked at Zheng Dandan in surprise. "I was wondering why you hadn't come to catch the bus recently. When did you move to the county town?"

She was deeply impressed by Zheng Dandan and others after two encounters on the bus.

"We just moved here not long ago." Zheng Dandan took out some money, counted out 18 cents, and handed it to the ticket seller. "We're going to town, so the kids don't need tickets, right?"

"Well, those under 1.2 meters tall are free." The ticket seller looked at Yanlidan Niuniu and took the ticket money from Zheng Dandan.

It was a rare opportunity for Pidan and Niuniu to ride the bus. They were each held in their parents' arms, looking at the world outside the window with curiosity.

"Wow, the tree outside disappeared in an instant." Pi Dan exclaimed.

"The house just now is gone too!" Niuniu echoed, "The house is running away!"

The childish words and chatter made the atmosphere on the bus relaxed and cheerful.

"Why did you think of moving to the county town? Where do you live with your family?" The conductor was bored in the car, so he started gossiping out of curiosity.

"I came to the county town to work and rent a house." Zheng Dandan said vaguely.

"Oh, you're a worker now?" the conductor exclaimed in surprise, then began to ask a series of questions, "How many workers are there in your family? You carried so many things into the city a few days ago, is that for this? Which factory?"

"What are you doing? You don't even interrogate people like this when checking household registration!" Sun Cuilan looked at the ticket seller with dissatisfaction.

"I'm just asking." After being scolded by Sun Cuilan, the ticket seller's excitement subsided a lot.

"I'm so sleepy! I woke up too early and I'm still not fully awake. I'm going to sleep for a while." Zheng Dandan yawned at the right moment and looked at the ticket seller. "We'll talk later. I really have a headache."

After saying that, he closed his eyes, not giving the ticket seller any chance to continue communicating.

The conductor had a lot to say but couldn't say it out loud, so he returned to his seat by the front door of the bus in embarrassment.

"Here we are, girl, wake up."

Zheng Dandan was sound asleep when Sun Cuilan tapped her shoulder and woke her up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, looking like she was still half asleep.

"You can really sleep well, even on the bus!" the ticket seller exclaimed.

When she saw Zheng Dandan's expression, she felt that she was really sleepy and was not deliberately making excuses to get rid of her. The discomfort in her heart immediately disappeared.

"I was born to be sleepy." Zheng Dandan smiled, then got out of the car with the Zheng brothers and sisters-in-law.

"The town is still the same, it hasn't changed at all." Dad Zheng looked at the familiar scene in front of him and felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.

"We've only been away for less than ten days, what could have happened?" Third brother Zheng Jianjun said in confusion, very frankly.

Father Zheng's face darkened. He was just expressing his feelings, but the third son actually rushed to choke him.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb!" Sun Cuilan glared at Zheng Jianjun, then looked at everyone, "Go home."

It’s a distance of nearly three kilometers, and it takes at least forty minutes to walk.

After only half the distance, Zheng Dandan felt bored and tormented, and her feet ached slightly.

At this moment, she missed the car that Cheng Huadong had promised to rent to her so much that she swore to herself that after returning to the county, she would immediately go to learn how to drive and get her driver's license as soon as possible!

"My daughter, is Mommy all dressed up?"

Finally, they arrived. Sun Cuilan stopped, carefully tidied her clothes, and asked Zheng Dandan.

"Neat and energetic!" Zheng Dandan praised and patted the wrinkles on Sun Cuilan's sleeves.

"Dandan, what about me?" Dad Zheng had a serious face, but his eyes were full of anticipation and anxiety.

"There's no one in the surrounding area who's cleaner and more respectable than you." Zheng Dandan looked at Zheng's father carefully for a few seconds before saying to him with a smile.

When Mr. Zheng heard this, the hand holding the pipe trembled and his back straightened instantly.

"Datong, Cuilan, you're back?" As they walked into the village, the villagers saw them and greeted them warmly.

"Datong, what did you do in the county town? Did you make a lot of money?"

After Zheng's father was suspended from work, many in Ginkgo Village waited to see what would happen to the Zheng family. Like the team leader, they expected Zheng's father to return to the fields. But after all the waiting, not only did Zheng's father never show up to work, but even the three Zheng brothers, having paid their compensation, refused to come.

The villagers were curious, so they went to the team leader's house to inquire. Only then did they know that Zheng's father had used his connections to go to the county town and brought the three Zheng brothers with him. They were immediately filled with mixed feelings.

It's not that Zheng's father is unpopular in the village, but rather that the problem is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of wealth. The Zheng family is doing well, and the other villagers are inevitably jealous and even hate the rich.

"Datong is really talented. The new clothes you and Cuilan are wearing are newly made, right?" Someone noticed that Zheng's father and Sun Cuilan were wearing new clothes, and their attitude became more attentive.

Respect the clothes first and then respect the person. This saying applies not only to the wealthy and powerful, but also to the poor and backward villages.

"I bought this dress at the department store. It cost more than 20 yuan a set!" Sun Cuilan said proudly. She enjoyed the envious looks from those around her.

In the past, because Zheng's father was a worker, she received many envious glances from fellow villagers, but that envy was for her family's financial situation, not like now, when they were blatantly envious of her having new clothes to wear.

"It's so expensive, it's a rip-off!" a woman from the same village exclaimed.

The men are more concerned about what Zheng's father is doing. If he can arrange things for the three brothers of the Zheng family, does he also have the ability to arrange things for themselves?

"Datong, what are you doing in the county town? Can you take us with you?"

"That's right. We grew up together. If there's any work, you can arrange it for us!" said a person who was about the same age as Zheng Datong.

"Uncle Zheng, you also watched me grow up. If you have the right opportunity, don't forget me." A smart man named Luo Liang in the village spoke.

Dad Zheng looked at his neighbors in embarrassment. What arrangements should he make?

Although the business is very profitable, it is still something that cannot be made public nowadays and he cannot even talk about it.

Even if we tell them, will these people be willing to go if they like it?

"If there's a chance, of course. We're all neighbors. Either you grew up with my dad, or he raised you. How could he not think of you when he gets something good? But there's really no other way now. If my dad could still arrange it, could my cousin still stay in the village and farm?"

Zheng Dandan saw Zheng's father's predicament and stepped forward to help.

"Dandan, are you serious?" The fellow villagers looked at Zheng Dandan expectantly.

In reality, they hadn't even considered it a success. The job was so rare, how could it be so easy? They were just trying. Hearing Zheng Dandan's words, they were incredibly satisfied and felt their hopes were even greater!

"How can I lie?" Zheng Dandan asked back with a smile.

"How could that be? Dandan is a good girl, uncle, I believe you!"

Who would not give Zheng Dandan face and deliberately sing a different tune at this time?
