Sun Jingjing didn't care. She would get what she wanted soon anyway. These people would be strangers from now on, so she didn't mind at all if they didn't call her.
——
The next morning, Fang Zhiyi and the others woke up early. They did not forget that they had to go back to Fang's mother's hometown today.
Fang Zhiyi had never been there since she traveled through time, and she was very curious about what the countryside was like in this era. She also wanted to take notes so that when her uncle didn't have time to come back, she would have to clean up for the New Year.
Fang Zhilin was also very excited and insisted on wearing the overalls yesterday, but Fang Zhiyi stopped him. She thought that they had not been washed yet and were not very clean, so she washed them first.
Today the clothes were dry, and when Fang Zhilin saw them, he kept clamoring to wear them. Fang Zhilin had no choice but to give them to him and let him wear them, as long as he didn't mind the trouble.
Children's happiness is very simple. Those who put on new clothes will have a smile on their faces all morning, and they will look down at their washed clothes from time to time.
However, it must be said that both the Fang siblings have good looks. Although the child is a little thin, he has fair skin and has gained some weight in the past few days.
Now wearing this blue overalls, it looks very nice and cute, and makes people happy when they see it.
Blue makes the skin look whiter, and after putting it on, she looks even more like a white dumpling. Looking at the child over there, Fang Zhiyi thought, he still needs to fatten up a little.
Children are cute only when they are white and chubby. I have to continue working hard and earn money to buy meat for him.
If they weren't in a hurry, Fang Zhilin would have wanted to show off to his friends. Children's minds are easy to understand.
When Fang Zhilin heard this, he pouted and said, "Then I'll go play with Brother Xiaoshan when I get home. I'll show him my new clothes then. They look great."
"Yes, yes, this dress looks really good on Linlin. When we get back, you can show it to him whenever you want."
Fang Zhiyi looked at the child and thought that if he had a pair of leather shoes, he would look like a little prince. However, this was a sensitive word now and he didn't dare to say it. Otherwise, if it got out, he might be exiled to the northwest.
They don't have a bicycle at home, so to go to such a far place, they can only take a bus. It takes more than two hours to take the bus to Fang's mother's house.
There are only two buses a day. If you miss the morning one, you can only wait for the afternoon one, so they get up very early in the morning to prepare things.
Although there are no close relatives at home, there are some who can be considered related. The most important ones are some of the same generation as Meng's parents, or even older elders, who need to be visited.
Meng Xiangan hasn't come back for several years, and every time he has been left to Fang's mother. This time he finally comes back, he also wants to go back and visit.
The Meng siblings were considered promising by the people in their village. One found a job in the city and the other joined the army. Everyone in the village said that they were promising.
At the same time, they also sighed behind the scenes that the Meng family's parents were not blessed. They had suffered all their lives and finally had the chance to enjoy some happiness, but in the end, the two of them passed away. It was a pity for the villagers to talk about it.
There are also a few people in the village who work in factories, but they are all in the town or county. Only Fang's mother works in the city.
So every time they went back they were welcomed. Although no one lived in their house, no one wanted to occupy it.
Every time they go back, they will never have no place to eat. Many people in the village invite them, just to get married, in case they need someone someday.
People in the village generally make a living by farming and working. Although they don’t earn much money throughout the year, they can still fill their stomachs, so it’s still okay to give them a meal.
After they got on the bus, they were charged according to the distance they traveled. Since they were going far away, each person had to pay 20 cents. However, Fang Zhilin didn't charge any money.
In this way, they paid a total of 40 cents. There were not many people on the bus, so they quickly found seats and sat down.
People who take this bus usually carry large and small bags of luggage, and most of them are going home to visit their relatives.
As soon as Fang Zhiyi and his companions got on the bus, they attracted the attention of everyone on the bus. There was no way they could not be all good-looking, and the way Fang Zhiyi was dressed, it was obvious that he came from a wealthy family.
But it was only for a moment. After they sat down, the majority of the sight disappeared. They chose a seat for two and placed the luggage in front of the seat. Fang Zhilin sat on his uncle.
Fang Zhiyi looked quietly outside the car. It was his first time riding in a car here, and the smell in the car was really mixed. In the summer, everyone likes to sweat, and there were all kinds of things they brought with them, so the smell was really bad.
Fortunately, the window could be opened, and just as the window was opened, the car started moving. Meng Xiangan was afraid that Fang Zhiyi would not recognize all the family members, so he introduced them to her while they were in the car.
Thinking that her sister usually doesn't bring them home, it's better to introduce them to each other early to avoid them getting confused.
Meng Xiangan wanted to tell her everything that happened in the village at once, which family was at odds with which family, which family was more amicable, and which family often quarreled with which family, but had a very good relationship.
Although Meng Xiangan hadn't been back for a long time, he could still tell everyone what happened in the village. He didn't know what the children in each family looked like.
As they talked, they started talking about their childhood. Fang Zhiyi listened to his words with great interest. Since he had never experienced this before, he was curious about everything he heard.
It was really interesting to hear them talk about the early days of the 1960s when the movement had just begun.
Just like that, during the bumpy ride of the bus, Fang Zhiyi listened to the interesting stories that happened in their childhood and learned a lot about Fang's mother.
The place where they got off was basically the terminal, and there were not many people on the bus when they got off.
There was a couple and a young man who got off the bus with them. Meng Xiangan looked at them a few more times but couldn't recognize who they were.
But there are so many villages around here, and he hasn't been back for so long, so it's not a big deal if he can't recognize it.
After getting off the bus, they walked towards the village with their luggage. When they arrived, the villagers were working and they had to pass through a field to enter the village.
So they were recognized before they even entered the village, and were pulled aside and talked to for a long time before they were let go.
