Chapter 409 Deliberate
There were so many people that even one tractor couldn't accommodate them.
Zhou Chenglei drove a jeep and Zhou Chengxin drove a tractor to take them there.
Jiang Xia sat in the front passenger seat, and in the back sat his grandparents, his eldest cousin, and his three-year-old son.
Sitting in the last row were my uncle, my aunt, my second uncle and my second aunt, all of them holding a grandson.
This car has a soft-top design and can be used for both passengers and cargo. Because his family has a tractor, Zhou Chenglei did not buy the passenger and cargo model, so there are two rows of seats in the back.
Zhou Chenglei thought that after his three children were born, there would be enough space for the family of seven to go out.
Otherwise, in terms of comfort, it is more comfortable to sit in a car like Jiang's father's.
However, when driving on village roads, it is easier to drive a car with a high chassis like a jeep, especially on rainy days.
Grandma touched the car seat and smiled, "I never thought I'd be able to ride in such a nice car in my lifetime. I've finally achieved what I wanted in my lifetime!"
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "How can I be satisfied? I have never been on a plane. Grandma, please stay here. I will take you to take a plane."
Grandma smiled and said, “Next time, I’ll take a plane with you next time.”
"Then it's settled!"
As we chatted and laughed, the jeep drove steadily and slowly to the city railway station, but the tractor had not arrived yet.
Zhou Chenglei parked the car on the side of the road and asked Jiang Xia to wait with them in the car while he went in to get the tickets. He had called the stationmaster in advance yesterday and asked him to help reserve the tickets.
When Zhou Chenglei came back after buying the ticket, the tractor arrived.
He helped Jiang Xia get off the car first, and then he and Jiang Xia went to help his grandparents get off the car.
Then he helped everyone carry Li to the train station.
When they arrived at the waiting room, Zhou Chenglei distributed the tickets to everyone.
The last one was given to Tan Yudai: "I'm sorry, cousin, the train tickets are tight at the end of the year, the seat tickets are sold out, there's not enough, so I had to buy a standing ticket."
Tan Yudai: “…”
He must have done it on purpose.
Jiang Xia glanced at Zhou Chenglei. No matter how annoying he was, he was not criticized for his mistakes. He was a strong man! Grandpa didn't think much about it: "It's getting late in the year, and it's good to be able to buy train tickets. When we came here, we only bought five seat tickets."
"Yes! It's great that we can buy so many tickets! Here is the money for the tickets, Alei, keep it." The aunt took out the money and gave it to Zhou Chenglei.
Zhou Chenglei didn't answer. "No, it didn't cost much. You're welcome, aunt."
My aunt stuffed it directly into Jiang Xia's pocket and said, "Take it. How can I let you pay for the train tickets?"
Because Zhou Chenglei had booked the tickets in advance and knew the train time, he didn't have to wait too long. The train arrived at the station soon. Zhou Chenglei supported his grandmother, helped them carry their luggage, and sent them on the train.
The moment grandma got on the train, Jiang Xia stuffed the money for the train ticket into her pocket: "Grandma, please take good care of your luggage. There is a red envelope in the clothes that Alei and I bought for you."
After saying that, he stepped away and left the train.
grandmother:"……"
Soon the train started.
The three of them left only after the train had gone far away.
Zhou Chengxin drove the tractor directly back to the village, while Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia to a newly built road with few cars on it and taught her how to drive.
Jiang Xia had learned to drive and passed the driving test, but she hadn't driven for a long time. Zhou Chenglei was afraid that she was not familiar with it, so he took her to familiarize herself with it.
Jiang Xia is indeed not familiar with the cars of this era, and she learned automatic transmission in Hyundai, while this one is manual transmission.
Zhou Chenglei explained it to her in detail, then asked Jiang Xia again. After confirming that Jiang Xia remembered everything, he adjusted his seat and sat back a little, letting Jiang Xia sit in front of him and drive.
Two people squeezed together in the driver's seat.
He really didn't feel comfortable letting Jiang Xia drive on his own, so this was the only option.
Jiang Xia was indeed not very familiar with the area at first, and the car stalled once when he started it.
But once she got the car started, she drove just fine.
But Zhou Chenglei was very nervous all the way.
After driving for a long distance and making sure Jiang Xia was familiar with the road, Zhou Chenglei said, "Okay, pull over, I'll drive, let's go back!"
It was winter, and he was so nervous that the clothes on the back were soaked.
Jiang Xia parked the car by the side of the road: "I'll drive back, you sit in the passenger seat."
Zhou Chenglei wanted to refuse, but then he thought it would be a good idea to let Jiang Xia drive for a while longer since there were no cars or people on this road, so he said, "You can only drive on this section of the highway. I'll drive on the village road."
This section of road had just been repaired and there were almost no cars or people to be seen, but the village road was full of potholes and uneven, and people and dogs ran out from time to time, which made Zhou Chenglei worried.
"Yeah." Jiang Xia knew he was worried, so he agreed.
After Zhou Chenglei sat back in the passenger seat, she started the car, turned around and drove back.
It can be seen from the U-turn that her driving skills are quite good.
Jiang Xia asked him: "How is it? My driving skills are pretty good, right?"
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Zhou Chenglei nodded: "Yes."
"Are you relieved now?"
"I'm worried." Zhou Chenglei estimated that he would never be able to let her drive alone in his life. "In the future, you should tell me where you are going. I will take you there. If I am not free, I can hire a driver to drive you."
Jiang Xia didn't want to talk to him anymore.
Fortunately, she is an emotionally stable person, otherwise she would have stepped on the accelerator and let him see how good her driving skills really are.
When the two returned to the village, it was just school time and there were many children in the fields and on the village roads.
The three brothers Zhou Zhou, Zhou Jie and Zhou Wenzu were walking in the fields. When they saw the jeep, they immediately ran and shouted, "Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!"
Jiang Xia saw them and reminded Zhou Chenglei: "Some kids are calling you, stop the car! Let them get in."
Zhou Chenglei stopped the car.
Several children ran up the path excitedly.
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Hurry up and get in the car!"
"Yeah!" The four children got on the bus and drove away amid the envious eyes of a group of students.
In the car, Zhou Wenzu said, "Uncle, Zhou Zhou said he wanted to go for a ride, can you drive us for a ride?"
Zhou Zhou: “…”
"I'll take you to the city to play when I have time during the holidays." Zhou Chenglei understood their feelings at the moment, but there were too many children on the road after school.
When the children heard this, they screamed with excitement.
Wherever the jeep passed, the children going home from school were extremely envious. Some children recognized Zhou Wenzon and his brothers and even ran behind the car.
Zhou Wenzong felt very proud and said, "When I grow up, I will buy a car like this!"
Zhou Wenyao, Zhou Wenzu and Zhou Jie all echoed: "I want to buy it too!"
Jiang Xia took the opportunity to say, "Then you should study hard!"
Zhou Wenzu: "But going out to sea to fish doesn't require too much study. I can go out to sea to fish and earn money to buy it, just like my uncle!"
Everyone says he looks like his uncle.
“…”
Jiang Xia looked at Zhou Chenglei: Look at the good example you set.
Zhou Chenglei laughed angrily: "Don't tell me the same thing as me. When did I stop studying? I have a college diploma! And I didn't earn the money from fishing at sea."
Zhou Wenzu: "But uncle, you didn't get into university by taking exams, you fought your way into it!"
Zhou Chenglei: “…”
