Before dawn, Wan Changsheng got up with his wife.
"Husband, I'm going to make something to eat. Go wake Ping An up. If he really needs to sleep, I'll hold him and take a nap in the car later."
Wan Changsheng nodded. He really couldn't feel bad. He got up late and was in a hurry. When he arrived at the county town, he had to go to the county government to get a travel permit. From the tone of the eldest master, he should set off today.
Ping An heard someone calling him to get up in a daze, and his mind suddenly became clear. Today was the day to leave, and he couldn't sleep in.
"Dad, I understand."
Seeing that the child had sat up, Wan Changsheng turned around and went to harness the mule. Most of the luggage was packed in the main room last night, so he just had to move it to the carriage.
Half an hour later, when daybreak began to appear, the carriage was already filled with things, leaving only a small space for the wife and children to sit.
Looking around the room again, all the small items that could be taken had been taken away, and those that could not be taken away were placed here. If nothing unexpected happened, this place would be given to the eldest brother sooner or later. No matter how bad the eldest brother was, he was still his relative. For a mere twenty taels of silver, he might as well have a good reputation.
Mei Niang came out and saw her husband standing next to the mule cart, looking around with a look of reluctance to leave. After all, he had built this place with his own hands, so of course he had deep feelings for him.
She was different from her son. She had only been here for over a month, but she was already eager to leave as soon as possible so that no one would know that she was once a widow and had a husband.
As long as they can make ends meet, no woman is willing to remarry. However, the creditors were putting a lot of pressure on her, and she was unwilling to ask her parents for help. Her parents had to work hard and even owed some debts before they could open a grocery store.
How could she open her mouth?
At the beginning of this year, my parents-in-law accidentally found out about the debt collection. It was she who told me about it after my husband came to propose marriage. Since life is no longer possible and my parents-in-law have passed away, I should just remarry. No matter how much I like that person, he has been gone for five or six years.
So she discussed with her son about using the betrothal gift to pay off debts. The debt owed by the Chang family could not drag her family into it.
"Husband, it's time to eat."
Wan Changsheng smiled at his wife, walked over and held her hand, "Let's go eat, and then leave. I told your eldest brother yesterday that the mule cart will not enter the house. He will be waiting for us at the intersection with Erqiang."
Mei Niang nodded. In this case, she could not say goodbye to her parents. The noise of the mule cart was so loud that it startled her eldest uncle and third uncle's families. When they asked where they were going, it would be bad not to tell them. But her husband clearly did not want to tell her.
That's all.
"My dear, please ask your elder brother and Erqiang to watch us get off the car. We are going to say goodbye to our parents-in-law. How can we leave without saying goodbye?"
"I understand, my husband." Mei Niang was happy. It was indeed true.
It was a cold morning in early May. Wan Changsheng asked his wife and children to get into the carriage, went out of the yard, locked the gate, took one key away and hid another under the stone slab.
Looking at the home I built with my own hands again, the reluctance to leave welled up in my heart again.
"Gee!" Ping An opened a car window and watched the mule cart slowly get on the road. He would be eight years old in three months, and his life had embarked on a journey from this moment on.
There is no achievement in this world that comes for you without reason. If you want to live a good life and become a superior person, you have to fight for it. The more you give, the greater your hope.
In his previous life, he was a ruthless man with a strong temper and a good family background. He was also more hardworking than most people and more ruthless than anyone else. Otherwise, he would not have become famous at the age of 30 and became the chief surgeon of a large hospital in just a few years.
At the age of 40, he was nominated to be the vice president, but he was unwilling to engage in management. To the confusion of others, he began to study Chinese medicine in his spare time. In the following 20 years, he became the most respected person in the hospital and truly gained both fame and fortune.
Unfortunately, he died of cerebral infarction too early.
He looked at his own little hands. Let him die. He was a young boy now, much stronger in age, and he still had his own memories.
Having built-in memory means that decades of medical experience from the previous life are brought with you.
This is the greatest reward from God to me.
It's just hard for his wife and son. The couple have lived together for 30 years and can be said to be as loving as ever. His son is already a graduate student at a prestigious medical university in his twenties and admires him to the extreme.
If you pass away suddenly, they will be the ones who miss you the most, right?
For a moment, Ping'an was lost in memories of the past and his mood suddenly became depressed. Seeing that her son was silent, Mei Niang thought he wanted to sleep.
"Ping An, bear with it for a while. We will go and say goodbye to grandpa and grandma. When we are on the way, mom will hold you and take a nap."
Ping An nodded without saying a word, and refused to let him hug him, as he was too old.
Sure enough, Uncle He and his wife and Erqiang were already waiting at the intersection.
Erqiang's face was full of excitement. When he saw the mule cart coming, he waved his hands and started jogging: "Safe, safe."
The mule cart stopped.
Wan Changsheng picked up his son and wife and asked, "Brother, sister-in-law, are you getting impatient?"
Mrs. Hu smiled and said, "It's only been a while since I came here, Erqiang is getting anxious."
Several people laughed.
Mei Niang said, "Sister-in-law, my husband and I are going to take the children to say goodbye to our parents. Please help watch over the carriage."
He Zilin shook his head: "My parents told you to leave immediately. Please come back as much as possible when you can."
Mrs. Hu whispered, "Really, my parents are old and don't want to say goodbye to you. When we left, my father went to the fields. You can go now."
"My dear, let's go. In a year or two, we will find time to come back to visit our parents, elder brother and his wife. We will also keep Daqiangzi's matter in mind. As I said before, never go deep into the mountains. Always bring the antidote with you every time you go up the mountain. You can never be too cautious."
"I understand. Let's go. It will take at least an hour to get to the county town."
Mei Niang took the two children into the car. At this moment, Er Qiang felt a little reluctant to leave and his eyes turned red as he looked at his parents.
He Zilin smiled and said, "You are so lucky, little brat. Be a good boy when you go out, learn some skills, be more diligent, be more careful with your mouth, and don't cause any trouble for Ping An."
Er Qiang nodded: "Dad and Mom, I understand."
The mule cart gradually sped up and turned a corner, and soon He Zilin and his wife disappeared.
Erqiang looked at the fields on both sides that were rapidly receding and became excited again: "Ping An, mule carts are good, much faster than donkeys. If it were a horse, how much faster would it be?"
Ping An also curled his lips. It was right to bring this little cousin here. The youngest cousin in his memory was only a few months older than him. He was very gentle and not as lively as Er Qiang.
"Ping An, I wonder if we will leave the county today. If we don't leave today, why don't we go for a walk? I have never been to the county before."
Ping An nodded: "Okay, if we don't leave today, let's let Dad take us for a walk."
My arms and legs are weak now. If I get caught by human traffickers, it will be no joke.
Mei Niang listened quietly to the two children talking, one chattering away, the other answering slowly. It was really interesting.
