Li Mingxi was originally thinking about how to shirk the responsibility, but now after hearing what the old man said, he didn't know what to say for a moment and felt very embarrassed.
At this time, Chen Baoguo spoke again, "Don't worry, there is no drug!"
Since everyone said so, Li Mingxi couldn't refuse.
I looked around and saw that it was relatively safe here as people were constantly passing by. If anything went wrong later, I would definitely be heard if I shouted here.
Thinking that there was no danger, Li Mingxi stopped refusing and directly took the malted milk and drank it.
Chen Baoguo watched Li Mingxi drink the malted milk and nodded with satisfaction.
After Li Mingxi finished drinking the malted milk, he happened to see this strange old man looking at him with a loving face.
Li Mingxi didn't know why the old man wanted to give him malted milk, so he asked him.
"Nothing, I just feel a little bit familiar with you. Besides, it's just a bowl of malted milk, no big deal!"
Listening to the old man's tone, Li Mingxi guessed that something must be wrong at home!
Li Mingxi was just thinking about this when he heard the old man ask, "By the way, how many sisters do you have in your family?"
"Three, I have two twin brothers!"
When Chen Baoguo heard the number three, he was shocked, but he said, "Really? Then your mother is really lucky. Not only did she give birth to a daughter like you, but she also gave birth to two sons!"
Li Mingxi listened to the meaning of Chen Baoguo's words and could feel the sadness in his heart.
Looking at Chen Baoguo, who was in deep sorrow, Li Mingxi thought that he must be an old man with a story.
Then, Chen Baoguo started talking about his past.
It turned out that the old man and his wife had two sons and a daughter, but unfortunately, the youngest daughter was born during a war.
There was no other way, so they could only entrust their daughter to a fellow villager.
Later, when peace was restored and they went back to look for the fellow villager, they did not find him.
Even the people in that village are gone. I heard that they seem to be dead.
Li Mingxi felt a little sad after listening to the old man's story.
Because of the war, countless people were displaced and countless families were separated. Fortunately, the country won the victory later.
Seeing Chen Baoguo's gray hair, Li Mingxi felt a little sad and started to comfort him.
"It's okay, old man, you have to believe it, maybe your daughter is alive and well!"
Chen Baoguo nodded. "That's what I think too. I always think that one day, I will definitely see my daughter again."
Then he sighed, "It's just a pity for my wife. She never got to see her daughter again until she died!"
Li Mingxi didn't know how to comfort the old man.
After Chen Baoguo said this, he turned and left without waiting for Li Mingxi to comfort him.
Li Mingxi looked at Chen Baoguo's back as he left, and always felt a sense of depression.
How many people have been displaced and separated from their families because of war!
At the same time, it is precisely because of these people that our country can have a prosperous and strong future.
Li Mingxi sat there and rested for a while, then prepared to continue strolling. It was only noon anyway, so she still had plenty of time.
After Huo Jingchen left, he went straight to the station. Sure enough, the car had already left.
Zhu Qiang did not leave directly in the car, but was waiting for him there.
As soon as he saw Huo Jingchen appear, Zhu Qiang started to complain, "Boss, why are you so late? The car just left. If you had come a little earlier, we would have been able to get on sooner!"
Huo Jingchen felt very annoyed when he heard Zhu Qiang complaining.
I was already very annoyed because of the old man who blackmailed me at noon, but now as soon as I arrived at the station, I was scolded by Zhu Qiang.
Zhu Qiang was still complaining, completely unaware that Huo Jingchen was already angry.
"Don't tell me, Boss, you shouldn't have gone to Chen Ming's house when you knew Zhou Yi was leaving today. Why did you have to go today?"
Then, Zhu Qiang felt something was wrong.
Why is the surrounding air pressure so low? What's going on?
He subconsciously looked towards Huo Jingchen and saw the boss looking at him coldly.
What's going on? Did I say something wrong? Zhu Qiang didn't know why the captain looked at him so coldly.
But what he said was true, wasn't it? He knew that today was the day Zhou Yi was leaving, but the captain insisted on going today!
Zhu Qiang complained in his heart.
Huo Jingchen didn't know that Zhu Qiang was complaining about him in his heart. Seeing that he stopped talking, he felt a little better. Finally, he stopped nagging in his ears!
"What should we do now? The bus to the provincial capital has already left? Should we still go to the provincial capital?"
Zhu Qiang looked at Huo Jingchen and asked in confusion.
Huo Jingchen thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and take the truck!"
After Huo Jingchen said this, he walked towards the freight station.
Zhu Qiang could only follow him closely, but he didn't think he could find a truck to the provincial capital.
After a while, the two arrived at the freight station. After explaining the situation to the comrades at the freight station, they were very understanding.
Hurry up and find them to see if there are any cars going to the provincial capital, or if there are any cars passing by the provincial capital.
Huo Jingchen and his team were lucky. Coincidentally, there was a truck heading to the provincial capital to deliver goods and it had not left yet.
So, Huo Jingchen and Zhu Qiang boarded a truck heading to the provincial capital.
It was also a coincidence that the person driving this car happened to be Li Aiguo.
Huo Jingchen and Zhu Qiang had never seen Li Aiguo, so naturally they didn't know him.
But Li Aiguo was a talkative person. As soon as he saw the two people getting on the car, he started chatting with them.
After asking about their ages and occupations, when Li Aiguo heard Huo Jingchen say that they were soldiers, he gave them a thumbs up.
"It's good to be a soldier! My second brother used to be a soldier in the army, but now he has retired and works in the county town!"
Zhu Qiang is a talkative person. When he heard Li Aiguo say that there were soldiers in his family, he felt that their relationship had become closer.
He started chatting with Li Aiguo incessantly.
Originally, Li Aiguo felt very bored driving alone, but now that he has someone to chat with, he is naturally very happy.
The more Li Aiguo and Zhu Qiang talked, the more he felt that Zhu Qiang was a good kid, and he wanted to be a matchmaker for him.
Thinking of Erni from his third brother's family, Li Aiguo felt that the two were quite a match.
As for age and so on, it just so happens that this young man likes to talk and Erni is not talkative, so they complement each other so well!
Then, Li Aiguo spoke up, "Young man, do you have a partner?"
Zhu Qiang was already used to this kind of situation; he had been talked about a lot at home.
Therefore, after hearing this, he didn't feel embarrassed and replied directly, "No, what's the matter, uncle? Are you trying to be a matchmaker for me?"
