After a few more words, they put Zhao Shuanglian's matter aside. Li Tingman put her scarf aside and rubbed her fingers. "I haven't been to the county town for several days. Do you want to go tomorrow?"
"Go." Meng Zhiyu was the first to speak. She basically went to the county town to sell goods every two days, and tomorrow was the right time for her to go.
Li Qingqing and the others had nothing to do and wanted to go for a stroll in the county town. Mu Ziwei didn't want to squeeze into the ox cart or sit on the front handlebars of a bicycle. "Hey, I wonder if our Brother Yang is going to the county town tomorrow?"
"You are not short of money, just buy one for yourself." Looking at Mu Ziwei who was sighing sadly, Li Qingqing was very puzzled. If she had money, she would definitely buy one too.
Mu Ziwei said sadly, "I don't have any money. I've spent a lot of money."
Meng Zhiyu subconsciously didn't believe it. Among the four people in their backyard, he and Tingman were the richest. Mu Ziwei was even more of a person who knew how to enjoy life. He never had a bad meal out of three meals a day, and he always had plenty of fruit snacks after meals.
"Tsk," Li Qingqing curled her lips, "Are you lying to a child?"
Li Tingman and Song Guangye didn't say anything, but the expressions on their faces showed their disbelief.
Mu Ziwei felt very aggrieved. His family had some money and he was his parents' only child, but that didn't mean he was rich.
"I fled to the countryside. My family didn't give me a penny. Every penny I spent was my own pocket money."
Mu Ziwei did not lie at all. After he went to the countryside, he received many letters from home, but not a single one of them brought him money. When the weather got cold, they only mailed him some thick clothes.
"You're not that old, why do your parents force you to get married?" Although she had never met the Mu family, Li Tingman had heard a lot about them, and their style of doing things didn't seem like that of a strong and corrupt person.
Meng Zhiyu felt that since Mu Ziwei had been raised to have such a lively and sunny personality, the Mu family must not be the kind of parents with too many rules and a strong desire for control.
Mu Ziwei sighed and waved his hands, "Don't mention it. It was my grandma who forced my uncle to go on a blind date. In the end, my uncle didn't succeed in the blind date, but I was chosen by the girl's niece."
The little niece grew up in a pampered state. She went back and told her family about it. Although she shouldn't have been so proactive, her grandfather couldn't stand his granddaughter's coquettishness and called Grandpa Mu directly.
The two old men wanted the two children to get along with each other first, and then break up if they can succeed or not, but Mu Ziwei felt that he was still a baby.
Once a blind date begins, there is no end, unless you find someone to settle down with and don't want to get married so early. He didn't know what was going on in his head, he signed himself up without thinking it through, and by the time the Mu family found out, it was too late.
Song Guangye couldn't understand, "Then there's no need to come to the countryside. If you say you don't want to get married, who else can be more willing than you?"
Li Qingqing nodded repeatedly in agreement. She also felt that Mu Ziwei's reaction was a bit too much.
Meng Zhiyu might be able to understand Mu Ziwei's thoughts. Just after her 20th birthday, her grandparents started urging her to find a partner, but she felt that being alone was fine.
Until her grandparents passed away, she became a leftover woman in her twenties, but she still didn't want to get married and was too lazy to find a partner. This can be considered as fear of marriage.
Meng Zhiyu expressed his understanding, "It's mainly because you feel you're still young and want to play for two more years, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's right. If I were at home, I would have endless blind dates. It's better to go to the countryside and live in peace and quiet." Mu Ziwei clapped his hands excitedly. He felt that someone finally understood his feelings. He was so touched.
Whenever he received a letter from home, most of them were scolding him for running away without saying goodbye, and he felt so wronged.
Li Tingman ate the melon seeds that Song Guangye had peeled for her and said, "If you don't find one for yourself, you won't be able to escape when you return to the city."
Mu Ziwei didn't care, "It's okay, no rush, we're not sure whether we can go back."
Although his family would definitely not abandon him and let him die of old age in the countryside, it would not be a problem for him to hide for two or three years.
Meng Zhiyu, who knew the history, and Li Tingman, who had been reborn, said in their hearts at the same time, "We will definitely be able to go back."
But Li Qingqing and Song Guangye didn't know this. They were both a little sad and melancholy. After all, no one wanted to stay in this strange place for the rest of their lives.
Mu Ziwei was lucky this time. Zhang Yang did not go to the county town. Mu Ziwei happily pushed his bicycle in the yard waiting for Meng Zhiyu and others to come out.
Meng Zhiyu was riding her bike when she ran into Mrs. Zhang and Li Zhengzhi, each holding a child. She stopped to greet them, "Brother Li, Mrs. Zhang, are you taking your two children to the county town for fun?"
Li Zhengzhi stopped with his wife and replied in a good mood, "Yes, the children are still young, so we need to buy them some delicious food to nourish them."
Now the problem of feeding the two adults and two children in the family almost falls on him, but he is happy to do it. Even if he is tired, he is happy to do it.
When Meng Zhiyu and Li Zhengzhi were talking, they paid special attention to Mrs. Zhang. She just grinned at the child in her arms, and made some noises from time to time to amuse her.
Li Zhengzhi looked at his wife's silly smile and couldn't help but sigh, "Now I just pray that your sister-in-law can get better soon."
Meng Zhiyu smiled faintly, "It will definitely be fine. Now that the child is back, the child is her knot in her heart. Maybe one day Sister Zhang will recover."
Li Tingman and Li Qingqing were playing with the two little kids and comforted them, "Yes, these two kids need their mother right now, and Sister Zhang will definitely not want them to suffer."
Meng Zhiyu clearly saw Mrs. Zhang's eyes flicker, which made him more certain that she was awake, but why did she continue to play dumb?
Are you afraid that this is a dream, or do you still feel unsafe around you?
Meng Zhiyu had a hunch that Mrs. Zhang must know something. She knew those things that forced her to continue to play dumb to maintain the status quo. Was she worried that returning to normal would alert the enemy, or was she worried that she herself would be in danger?
There were many questions in Meng Zhiyu's mind, but the hail on his face did not show it and he still had a smile on his face.
When they arrived at the county town, they separated. Meng Zhiyu went to sell goods again, but she changed into the black girl with long braids. She first went to the black market near the train station. After looking around and not seeing her consignee, she found an open space and planned to sell the goods herself.
Just after squatting for a few minutes, he felt that the people setting up stalls were a bit noisy. In the past, everyone sold their own things without interfering with each other, but today, many people were whispering to each other. Something must be wrong, and Meng Zhiyu felt a little uneasy.
One's own safety is always the most important. Although it was just a feeling, Meng Zhiyu did not harbor any luck and immediately picked up the backpack and left.
But just a few seconds after she walked out of the door, she was met by a group of aggressive people with red sleeves. Her mind went blank. Seeing two of them walking towards her, her body instinctively drove her to run away.
