It was unexpected.
It seems that the Zhou family is more powerful than she imagined.
There was no collective punishment.
The next day, Li Aihua got up early and made barbecue strips for Zhou Huaijing.
?This is a troublesome thing to do.
First, cut the meat into strips about two centimeters long, sprinkle with spices, and roast it over the fire until half cooked, adding spices from time to time.
Then place a dustpan over the charcoal fire and smoke it slowly for a day and a night.
The heat must be neither too high nor too low, and the jerky is ready until it is completely smoked.
The aroma of the roasted meat made both families salivate, so Li Aihua and Xu Mingzhu made some more.
Let everyone have a taste and also prepare some snacks for the two children.
After the barbecued meat was ready, the two families had dinner and left early.
Let the Zhou family say goodbye properly.
Day and night rotate, but the snow never stops.
After having breakfast and clearing the way, Zhou Huaijing was ready to leave, carrying his backpack and wearing a bamboo hat.
"Wait." Hu Lin called him.
The Zhou family looked at her, and Li Aihua and Hu Xiaoyi also looked at her strangely.
"Put on your raincoat. I'll borrow a bicycle to take you to the county town.
After the village distributed dividends, there were no more ox carts. ”
Hu Lin took off his raincoat and put it on.
The two families were a little stunned.
Li Aihua was the first to react and continued, "In previous years, I never went out at this time, and I forgot about this rule.
It’s snowing so heavily and it’s windy.
Huai Jing walked there. Not only was he delayed on the road for a long time, but he was also afraid that he would be soaked before he reached his destination.
It would be better to let Hu Lin borrow a bicycle from Yang's house and ride there. ”
"That's not good." Zhou Honggan refused subconsciously.
The Yang family is the village chief's family who sent them here. They are not related at all, and it feels a bit awkward for them to use the Hu family as a middleman in a roundabout way.
Moreover, the village chief was quite hostile to their family.
"It's okay, our two families have a good relationship.
Next time when they come to your home, you can thank them in person. ”
Li Aihua explained.
"Then thank you for your help." Xu Mingzhu continued.
She didn't want her son to suffer this either.
People are still young now and can bear it, but when they get old, they will be plagued by illness.
Those days were not easy.
Zhou Huaijing was not a pretentious person. After hearing the whole story, he put on his raincoat.
After getting dressed, the two went to Yang's house.
When they arrived at the Yang family, as soon as Hu Lin talked to Yang Jing, Yang Jing looked at Zhou Huaijing differently.
With admiration in his eyes, he began to re-evaluate the Zhou family in his heart.
After borrowing a bicycle, the two left Yang's house.
After pushing the bicycle out of Yang's house, Hu Lin looked at Zhou Huaijing and asked, "Can you ride a bicycle?"
Zhou Huaijing nodded.
"You come." Hu Lin stopped and handed the bicycle to Zhou Huaijing.
She didn't want to do all the work by herself.
Zhou Huaijing took the bicycle and rode it.
Hu Lin's eyes swept over Zhou Huaijing's knuckles as he gripped the handlebars.
There were scabs on the knuckles where they were badly injured.
The wound has healed, the scab has fallen off, and there are still faint marks left.
"Get on." Zhou Huaijing held the bicycle and looked back at Hu Lin.
Hu Lin got on his bicycle and the two of them went to the county town.
It was windy and snowy all the way.
The snow was blocked by Zhou Huaijing, but the cold wind went straight into the holes in his clothes.
Hu Lin was so cold that he got goose bumps all over his body and his body felt cold.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Huaijing in front spoke.
“After that, I would send letters and supplies frequently.
If you need anything, please tell them and write it in the letter and I will send it to you. ”
"Can you get a ticket?" Hu Lin asked, "Like a bicycle ticket."
It is more convenient to have a bicycle at home.
"I'll give it a try."
His current situation is not very good. Zhou Huaijing did not dare to guarantee it. He changed the subject.
"Is there anything else you want?"
"Are you returning the favor?" Hu Lin didn't rush to answer, "Or do you want to cut off ties with us?"
She doesn't want such a simple reward.
She wants more!
"If possible, I would like my family to stay at your house for a while until they build a house in the cowshed."
Zhou Huaijing explained.
Hu Lin's brows moved slightly, and he understood.
"Then please send more toothbrushes and toothpaste.
As for the rest, I haven’t thought of it yet. I’ll write to you when I think of it. ”
Hu Lin kept Zhou Huaijing in suspense, and also let him know that the debt of favor owed is not so easy to repay.
"Okay." Zhou Huaijing's voice seemed to resonate with his chest, and it sounded particularly nice.
Zhou Huaijing looked ahead with a determined gaze, his eyebrows and eyelashes tinged with snow.
Hu Lin sat in the back seat, exhaled, and watched the hot mist disappear. He was in a good mood.
Arriving at the county town, Hu Lin accompanied Zhou Huaijing to wait for the bus.
After watching Zhou Huaijing get on the car, he took Zhou Huaijing's straw raincoat and bamboo hat and went home.
The snow today is not falling quickly, it is falling lightly.
Hu Lin returned along the same route that Zhou Huaijing had opened up when he came here. There was only about one centimeter of snow under the wheels.
