Deep sleep allows people to get better rest. After waking up, the two people felt that their fatigue seemed to be reduced by a lot.
Sun Xuefeng stretched lazily in the back seat, looked at the road ahead, then at his watch, and asked in confusion, "Where are we now? How many miles have we traveled around the edge of Tai County?"
Lian Xiaomin put his hands on the steering wheel and said casually, "Oh, I went straight through the city and nothing happened. Now I'm almost fifty miles away from Tai County."
The people behind were stunned for a moment, but with other people around, they didn't ask any more questions.
Anyway, whatever she says is what she does. I'm used to it.
This is great, and it saves me half a day.
He thought to himself that based on the distance, he would be able to reach Shanghai by tomorrow evening at the earliest.
"I bought some steamed buns and two boxes of wontons in the county town. I've eaten them already. You guys can eat first. When you're done, come and take my place. We won't stop for long. We'll try to arrive tomorrow night."
When Pei Ziqiu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He turned around and looked at the people around him with a little excitement.
She didn't say it, but she must have been very anxious in her heart.
The safety of her elder brother and younger brother was like a rope around her neck, often making her feel depressed and unable to breathe.
Originally, since the spring ploughing work began, the little girl has gained a lot under the tempering of wind and sun, and her body seems to be getting stronger and stronger, and she is no longer as frail as before.
On the first day when she first went to Sandagou, she almost collapsed from exhaustion after walking the 20 miles from the commune to the village. She couldn't go on halfway and had to ride in a ox cart for the rest of the journey.
But half a year later, who would have thought that the former young lady would roll up her sleeves, wield a hoe and do farm work in a decent manner.
However, ever since she received Uncle Zhao's letter a few days ago, she has become listless and has lost her former spirit.
That day, bandits broke into the village and a lone man went to the educated youth site. Actually, she was not scared at the time, but she still did not have the energy to go to work the next day, so she took a day off.
Every day that time is delayed is a more torment for her.
If she couldn't decide quickly and decisively what to do, she didn't know how long she could hold on without having a mental breakdown.
Therefore, at that time, Xiaomin was like the only life-saving straw in front of her, and she had to reach out and grab this only chance of survival.
Fortunately, it seems that she has caught him! At least the other party agreed to rescue the two brothers, which is the first step.
She had a really hard time these days, but she refused to even complain about being tired and just gritted her teeth and persevered.
If we can arrive on the evening of the 24th, that would be a little earlier.
Sun Xuefeng took a paper bag of buns and a lunch box, and handed the remaining half to Pei Ziqiu.
"Brother Feng, I can't eat so much. This big box of wontons is enough for me."
"Eat more, and save the rest for dinner." Sun Xuefeng looked at the big buns, each weighing two taels, which was really delicious.
The fragrant aroma whetted his appetite. He took a bite and his mouth was full of oil. After chewing it twice, he found out that it was filled with pork.
I have been eating dry biscuits these two days, and now I have changed to fresh buns, they are so delicious.
I ate five buns and a box of wontons, and I was so satisfied.
There are still a lot of buns left, enough for dinner.
Every time I go on a business trip with the boss, the food is always hard to come by.
"Xiao...Min, let me take your turn." She was a little uncomfortable, but the turn was quite fast.
The car stopped, and the two people who had finished their meal got off the car to walk around for five minutes, then found a place to relieve themselves, quickly returned to the car, and set off again.
Lian Xiaomin secretly took a shower and felt very comfortable. She lay down in the back seat and soon fell asleep.
The three of them, relying on their youth and energy, took turns sleeping and driving. They were really enduring.
It is actually difficult to get a good rest in the small space of a jeep.
If it were someone a little older, they probably wouldn't be able to handle such hardship.
They continued to work like this until the next day, around 7 o'clock in the evening on the 24th, when they were finally very close to the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Pei Ziqiu had already told Lian Xiaomin in advance where his grandfather's last fortune was hidden.
It is located in a remote village outside the main city of Shanghai, and is personally preserved by Cao Baojiang, a steward of the Pei family at that time.
Mr. Cao is sixty years old this year. When he was twelve years old, he became an orphan. He left Caojia Village in the far suburbs and went to work for Pei's family in the city.
The head of the family thought that this half-grown child was smart and calm, so he gave orders to take care of Pei Zhaojia, who was four years younger than him.
It can be said that he and the young master grew up together. Although they are master and servant in name, they are actually as close as brothers.
Pei Zhaojia is the only son in the family, the only one in the family with thousands of acres of land. He has no one else in his generation, so he regards Cao Baojiang as his brother.
Many years ago, Pei Zhaojia stopped letting him help him, and instead took an important amount of money back to his hometown village, hiding his identity and biding his time.
In fact, Cao Baojiang has been the young master's study companion since he was young. He is also well-educated and knows business very well.
However, Pei Zhaojia had this plan, and he would do whatever was arranged for him without saying a word.
In fact, the two of them are in sync and have similar views.
They all knew that the world had changed, and now people cared about class background and family background, so there was no guarantee that the family would not encounter any unexpected events.
Cao Baojiang took the thing and hid in the mountain village, becoming the last guarantee for the Pei family.
Apart from the two of them, no one else knew about this matter.
But somehow, Hu Yixun heard a rumor and learned that the Pei family had another important treasure.
………………………………
At 7:30 in the evening, the jeep stopped at a fork in the road not far from Shanghai.
Lian Xiaomin said to Sun Xuefeng, "Let's go directly to Yungang Farm first. Do you know which way to go?"
She thought to herself, if I didn’t know, I would get off the car and secretly hypnotize a little sparrow.
"I know, just take the road on the left!" Pei Ziqiu said. She had a good sense of direction, at least she could distinguish the roads around Shanghai.
In the past, the family's driver, Brother Liu, often drove her and her family around for fun and even taught her to drive, but she never learned.
After saying that, she asked with some doubt, "But, shouldn't we go to Caojia Village first? It's actually on the way, and it's closer..."
"No need. How can I worry about anything since you've come with me? Let's go check first to see if the two brothers have arrived at the farm yet."
Sun Xuefeng started the jeep again and drove towards the left fork in the road.
We didn't meet anyone on the road and drove for more than an hour before finally arriving at our destination.
It must be said that the performance of this car is good, and after several days of continuous driving, Sun Xuefeng's skills are now very good.
If you take the daytime passenger bus, it normally takes at least two hours to get from Shanghai to the farm.
