Chapter 79 Chapter 79 White Lotus Man
While Mrs. Jin was having dinner, Zhuo Jia whispered to Sun Jing about the train ticket. Although she thought she didn't need to buy the ticket herself, after all, it was Mrs. Jin who invited her, she still had to ask!
Sun Jing shook her head and whispered, "I don't think so. It seems Uncle Li has already asked someone to help buy the ticket. My dad said it was a sleeper berth!"
In her father's words, if her Uncle Li bought them hard seats...
Well, her Uncle Li is not such a incompetent person!
Zhuo Jia breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it was a sleeper. Although it was only a day and night journey, as someone who had taken a sleeper before, she said that if it was not necessary, she never wanted to take a hard seat again in her life!
Thinking of something, Sun Jing glanced at Li Yan'er, who was cooking in the kitchen, and leaned over to Zhuo Jia and whispered, "Let me tell you, my sister Yan'er has been very quiet today."
I just don't know whether she couldn't bear to leave Lingling or she was afraid to go back alone. After all, she was able to run back with the help of others. But if you ask her not to go back, she doesn't want to.
So everyone was at their wit's end. Since she wanted to go back and die anyway, they couldn't let Lingling go with her to die.
Zhuo Jia glanced towards the kitchen and said calmly, "You have to walk your own path. If you're stuck in a hole and don't want to get out, no one can help you!"
Moreover, compared with those people who are stuck in the pit but have no one to help them, Li Yaner is already much luckier. It's a pity that she herself is not motivated enough. What else can others do?
Sun Jing glanced at Zhuo Jia and didn't dare to say anything. Although she was still at her sister Yan'er's house, she had to say that Jia Jia really didn't like her sister Yan'er. But thinking about what her sister Yan'er had done, she couldn't blame others for disliking her!
Alas, if it weren't for the childhood friendship, she would have quit long ago!
Zhuo Jia pretended not to see Sun Jing's eyes. As for whether she liked her or not, she didn't feel much at all. If it weren't for Mrs. Jin, she really would have respected other people's fate!
Oh, being a parent is not easy!
When it was time to eat, Mrs. Jin didn't let Li Yaner sit at the table at all. Instead, she brought Lingling to the side and coaxed Lingling into forgetting that she had a biological mother!
During the meal, Deputy Captain Li also told Sun Jing and Zhuo Jiaming that although they were sending Li Yaner home, they should just treat it as going out to play with Li Yaner and not worry about anything. If Li Yaner asked them for help, they would take care of it. As for whether these two people could do it?
He had no doubt about it at all. He had heard of these two people's names countless times since they came to the family compound. If his daughter could be half as good as these two people, he wouldn't be so worried!
Zhuo Jia's mouth twitched. She certainly understood why Deputy Captain Li said that Li Yan'er asked them for help, because Li Yan'er would definitely be beaten if she went back. After all, she had escaped and had not brought her daughter back yet... It was a pity that Li Yan'er herself could not see through the things that everyone could see clearly!
Now Deputy Captain Li and Mrs. Jin are pinning their hopes on the fact that this time the Fan family can beat Li Yaner so hard that she will never want to go back!
Sun Jing held her head high and said, "Uncle Li, don't worry, we know what's going on."
After saying that, she glanced at Zhuo Jia: Right, sister, we all know what’s going on?
Zhuo Jia nodded to Deputy Captain Li, then rolled her eyes at Sun Jing. What did she mean by "know what"? She guessed that Sun Jing didn't understand what Deputy Captain Li meant at all. Alas, it was a good thing that she went with him, otherwise she would have worried that Sun Jing would get lost.
…
It was not until after dinner that Mrs. Jin called Li Yaner out to work!
Watching Li Yan'er clear the table without saying a word and then go to the kitchen to wash the dishes, Zhuo Jia couldn't help but sigh in her heart, although her mind is full of water, she is really diligent!
"My sister Yan'er was not so diligent before." Noticing Zhuo Jia's eyes, Sun Jing said leisurely from the side.
Getting married is really not a good thing. Look at what her sister Yan'er has become!
Zhuo Jia raised his voice and said, "I wasn't diligent before, and I'm not diligent now."
Don’t blame everything on marriage. Sometimes getting married means you don’t want to take the blame!
After saying this, she turned her head to look at Qiao Anchuan. Oh, Comrade Qiao Anchuan was also looking at her. She smiled at Qiao Anchuan and asked with her mouth: Shall we go?
Qiao Anchuan nodded, said something to Captain Sun and the others, and walked towards Zhuo Jia. Oh, when he came over, he did not forget to hold Zhuo Jia's scarf. After Zhuo Jia put on the scarf, the two walked out together.
Watching the two people leave side by side, Sun Jing couldn't help but shake her head, then turned around and went to find her mother. She had to tell her mother that she also wanted to find a partner who didn't require her to be so diligent!
…
The day of departure soon arrived. Because the train ticket was early in the morning, Zhuo Jia couldn't get up at all. Qiao Anchuan had to wake her up with great difficulty.
"The porridge is almost cold. Peel the eggs and put them in the bowl. I'll take you downstairs after you finish eating." Qiao Anchuan pulled her out, still giving instructions.
When you get there, just treat it as a place to have fun. If you don't have a good time, come back. If you have any problems there, call back immediately. You can watch the fun, but don't get too close...
In short, I am more worried about him than if he went out alone.
Zhuo Jia nodded while drinking porridge: "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of myself. I will be home in five days. You just need to wait for me at home."
Because the plan is to stay outside for three days, plus the time for going back and forth, five days is enough!
As she was out for a short time, Zhuo Jia didn't bring anything except her shoulder bag. When she went downstairs, she took her bulging shoulder bag with her.
…
Arriving at the train station, Zhuo Jia glanced at Sun Jing and Han Zhaodi who looked excited, and then at Li Yaner who looked nervous. She couldn't help but chuckle. This trip out was quite fun.
After getting on the train, the four of them said nothing and just looked for their own berths. They didn't know how Deputy Captain Li did it, but the four of them were in the same carriage, and the other two upper berths were still empty. It was likely that no one would get on at this stop. In other words, there were only four of them here.
Han Zhaodi turned around and said excitedly, "This sleeper car is clean and comfortable."
This was her first time riding a sleeper berth, which was much more expensive than a hard seat. If it were her, she would never be willing to buy a sleeper berth ticket in her life!
Sun Jing climbed up to the middle bunk on her own initiative. She climbed up and stuck her head out and said, "It's not bad. It felt comfortable at first, but it became uncomfortable after a while."
But even so, if she were asked to go to the hard seat compartment, she would still make a fuss.
Zhuo Jia, who was sleeping in the lower bunk, put her things away, yawned, and said, "Compared to the sleeper berth, the hard seat is really uncomfortable."
There are fewer people in the sleeper berth and it is quiet and you can sleep well, but on the hard seat side, you dare not close your eyes because there is no one you know sitting next to you!
Han Zhaodi, who had always been sitting in a hard seat, nodded quickly: "That's right. I brought my children to visit relatives before, and my back and waist always ached from sitting. Let alone the pain during this journey."
As she spoke, she shook her head. What had supported her going back and forth at that time was probably the desire for a son. It was a pity, but it was not a pity at all. Now she no longer longed for a son. Having a daughter was also good!
Because there was no one else in the sleeper room except the four of them, Zhuo Jia and the other two talked for a long time. Why three of them?
Of course, it was because the absent-minded Li Yan'er had no mood to join them, but no one cared about them, so just let Li Yan'er be anxious on her own!
However, the three of them didn't talk for long. Because they went to bed late last night and got angry early in the morning, Zhuo Jia really couldn't hold on any longer. Without saying a word, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
And she fell asleep. The proud Sun Jing and the somewhat self-deprecating Han Zhaodi stopped chatting after a few words. Ahem, they are really not the same kind of people, so let's take a rest!
When Zhuo Jia was woken up again, it was already time for lunch. Sun Jing stood beside Zhuo Jia and said, "I'm going to buy food. Will you come with me?"
She originally wanted to go with Aunt Han, but thinking of how frugal Aunt Han was in managing the household, she finally decided to wake Zhuo Jia up. There was no other way, she didn't want to become a vegetarian.
Zhuo Jia was a little dazed from her sleep. She sat up and took a long time to react before nodding and saying, "Okay, I'll get some hot water."
The two of them carried lunch boxes and water bottles for four people. When they got out of the sleeper car, they regretted it. There were too many people outside...
When the two finally squeezed back, their hair was messy, as if they had been robbed outside!
Sitting down on the lower bunk, Sun Jing pulled at her hair and said, "I'm not going out anymore. Never again!"
When I went on a long trip with her mother before, her mother would always go out to squeeze in. But now...
When she goes back, she will never quarrel with her mother again. Her mother has had a really hard life.
Han Zhaodi smiled and said, "It's like this on the train during holidays."
Well, although there are quite a few people on the train on normal days, it still cannot be compared with the Chinese New Year.
Sun Jing paused her hand pulling at her hair. She asked with a hint of despair, "Will it still be like this when we come back?"
This time she felt like she was going crazy, and if she did it again...
She'll go crazy!
Han Zhaodi smiled and said, "You and Jiajia, the two of you should walk together. That's how it should be."
But she was different. She was waiting here for her cousin to give birth, and even waited for her cousin to finish her confinement. By the time she left, the situation on the train should be much better.
Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing: "..."
The two looked at each other, seeing the despair in each other's eyes. Zhuo Jia struggled to comfort Sun Jing: "If you think so, after returning to the family compound, I will have to take a three-day train ride home. It's much more troublesome than you."
Oh, she is so great!
I don’t know whether it moved others, but she was moved at least!
Sun Jing was not moved. She even said, "You suffered all this for Uncle Qiao!"
She still remembers the time when Zhuo Jia forgot her friends because of a beautiful woman.
Zhuo Jia: "..."
Wrong payment!
Looking at Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing chatting and laughing together, Li Yan'er's eyes couldn't help but darken. When she played with her before, Jing Jing was also like this with her, but ever since she got married...
Is she really wrong?
But Brother Li is really good to her!
No one cared about Li Yaner's dilemma. This train had exhausted all their energy. Everyone tried to save energy and drink less water. Ahem, they didn't want to go out and squeeze again.
It was midnight when two more people got on the carriage. They were two handsome middle-aged men and very quiet, so it did not affect the four of them from continuing to sleep. When they left the carriage again, the train had already arrived at its station.
Before coming, Deputy Regiment Commander Li contacted his friends here to pick them up, so as soon as they got off the train, they met the people who came to pick them up. They were comrades from the Armed Forces Department.
Zhuo Jia glanced at the comrades from the Armed Forces Department, then at Li Yan'er, and couldn't help shaking her head in disgust again. Well, it's really unique that someone could live like this with such a big mountain behind them.
The people from the armed forces sent them to the county and then to the guesthouse. That's right, Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing had to be settled in the county first, and then go to the Xiangyang Brigade below with Han Zhaodi and others.
Standing at the door of the guesthouse, Zhuo Jia said to the comrade from the armed forces department, "Comrade, there's no need to bother you anymore. We know the way and can get there on our own."
Since Li Yaner never thought of relying on her family from the beginning, it’s time to stop relying on them now!
The comrades in the Armed Forces Department were stunned. He said hesitantly, "But our minister told me to send you to the Xiangyang Brigade."
Otherwise, their minister would not be able to arrange for him to pick her up, because their minister has a meeting at 10 o'clock in the morning and is afraid that he will not be able to make it back.
Zhuo Jia smiled and said, "You don't have to send me off. We'll explain to your minister when we get back."
Sending them to Xiangyang Brigade by car will seriously affect the development of the situation.
Although the comrade from the Armed Forces Department was puzzled, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, comrades, if you have any problems, just go to the Armed Forces Department and find someone."
The minister asked him to pick them up, and he did so, but he also had to follow other people's arrangements afterwards. So this comrade dropped them off at the guesthouse and drove away.
Han Zhaodi smiled and said to Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing, "Shall we eat something first, and then go to Xiangyang Brigade?"
After saying this, she glanced at Li Yan'er who was still silent, and couldn't help shaking her head. Oh, I hope Li Yan'er can figure it out, otherwise how can she live up to the good intentions of Sister Jin and the others!
But then she thought of something and looked at Zhuo Jia with a smile. Maybe Li Yan'er could see clearly this time.
Since they were in the guesthouse, and Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing shared a room, the four of them rested in the room for a while, washed up, and ate...
It was almost ten o'clock when the four of them walked out. According to Li Yan'er and Han Zhaodi, Uncle Fan from Xiangyang Brigade would take people back at this time, and they would just catch up.
Because Han Zhaodi also knew the approximate location of the ox cart, after leaving the guesthouse, Zhuo Jia said to Li Yaner, "Yaner, the four of us should split up. You can go by yourself, and we'll go with Sister-in-law Han. Is that okay with you?"
She came all the way here to watch the show, not to act.
Li Yan'er was stunned. She subconsciously looked at Sun Jing, but Sun Jing looked up at the sky and down at the ground, but she didn't look at him. She hesitated for a moment, biting her lip and asked hesitantly, "What should I say when I get back?"
She took her daughter out but didn't bring her back. The Fan family will definitely ask about it. And what about Li Ge? How should she explain to Li Ge?
Seeing that Li Yan'er was still worried, Zhuo Jia raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "Just tell me the truth. Anyway, the current situation is because she was too concerned about her in-laws and was kicked out by her parents' family, right?"
She wanted to see if the people in the Fan family would think of beating Li Yaner to death when they knew the answer!
Li Yan, who lost her mother's home: "..."
She knew that her parents disliked her, but she didn't want to say it so obviously.
In the end, Li Yan'er said nothing, but just walked forward with heavy steps. After Li Yan'er walked for a while, Zhuo Jia and the others followed behind her.
…
When they saw Li Yan'er again, she was sitting silently on an ox cart, and there were several women on the cart surrounding her and talking about something.
Han Zhaodi glanced at Zhuo Jia and the others, then quickened her pace and walked forward. Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing followed quickly behind.
"Uncle Fan, when are we going to Xiangyang Brigade?" Han Zhaodi walked up to Uncle Fan and asked.
Seeing Han Zhaodi, Uncle Fan felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't place where. He looked at Han Zhaodi and asked, "Are you from our team?"
No way? Although he is old, he shouldn't be so forgetful.
Before Han Zhaodi could answer, a woman sitting on the oxcart jumped down and said, "You are the cousin of Sanquan's wife Zhu Lanlan, right? I remember you came to our brigade before."
She was good friends with Sanquan's mother, so naturally she had met Han Zhaodi, but it had been several years.
Han Zhaodi smiled and nodded: "Yes, Lanlan is my cousin. She is about to give birth, so I came to see her."
Looking at Han Zhaodi who quickly started chatting with others, Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing looked at each other. Han Zhaodi seemed quite shy on weekdays, but they didn't expect that she had so much to talk about with others.
The woman glanced at Han Zhaodi, then at Sun Jing and Zhuo Jia, and asked curiously, "Did these two female comrades come with you?"
Oh my God, if Sanquan’s mother knew that so many relatives came to her daughter-in-law’s house, she would probably go crazy, right?
Zhuo Jia quickly explained: "We are from the same hometown as Sister Han, but we have friends in the county, so we just went to the brigade with Sister Han this time."
Afraid that Li Yaner's in-laws would notice something was wrong, Zhuo Jia didn't even dare to mention where they came from!
Han Zhaodi echoed from the side: "That's right, they are worried about me."
After saying that, he looked at Li Yaner who was lowering her head, oh!
Because of Han Zhaodi's presence, and because the others were more curious about her, it was Han Zhaodi who talked to those women throughout the rest of the journey.
Oh, occasionally those women would ask Li Yaner a few questions. Usually at this time, Zhuo Jia and the others would look at Li Yaner, and the words "I don't know her" would almost be written on their faces!
When they arrived at Xiangyang Brigade, Zhuo Jia and the other two quickly distanced themselves from Li Yan'er. There was nothing they could do about it, as Li Yan'er was a celebrity in Xiangyang Brigade.
The celebrity Li Yaner had just gotten off the ox cart and was surrounded by a group of aunts at the village entrance before she could say a word.
This one asked: "Yan'er, where have you been?"
"Back to my parents' home."
The other asked, "Yan'er, why did you come back alone? Where's your daughter?"
"Leave it to my mother's house."
Someone else asked, "Yan'er, didn't you run away? Why are you back?"
"I didn't run away."
“…”
Zhuo Jia and the other two kept a certain distance from Li Yan'er. Looking at the grand scene over there, they all swallowed their saliva at the same time. It was so horrible, so scary!
Obviously, Li Yaner, who grew up in a family compound, was no match for these aunts, so apart from answering questions, she just looked for opportunities to walk forward. Unfortunately, the aunts were too enthusiastic and she didn't run away.
It wasn't even long before Li Yaner's in-laws heard the news and rushed over. When they heard the woman who came back with them say that the three women and one man who came were Li Yaner's in-laws, the three of them turned their heads to look over at the same time.
Judging from the way Li Yaner's eyes lit up when she saw the man, this should be Fan Li. The other three women, the older one is Li Yaner's mother-in-law, and the other two younger ones are Li Yaner's sisters-in-law.
Zhuo Jia's mouth twitched. She wanted to know how blind Li Yan'er was to this family. Judging from their facial features, none of them were easy to get along with.
Sure enough, when Zhuo Jia was thinking this, Li Yan'er's mother-in-law rushed into the crowd and grabbed Li Yan'er's hair, angrily asking: "You little bitch, you still know how to come back? Where have you been? Are you cheating on my second son? Believe it or not, I will let my son divorce you?"
Li Yan'er begged with red eyes: "Mother-in-law, I didn't do that. I just went back to my parents' home."
He just begged for mercy and didn't dare to fight back. He even twisted his head to look at Fan Li. His lips moved several times, but he didn't shout out.
Sun Jing, who saw this scene, subconsciously wanted to help, but was stopped by Zhuo Jia. At this time, Zhuo Jia's attention was on Fan Li, who was being helped by Li Yan'er.
"Three comrades, are you here to bring Yan'er back?" The first person Fan Li noticed was not Li Yan'er, but Zhuo Jia and the other two who were standing not far away. He even walked up to Zhuo Jia and the other two and asked.
After asking this question, without waiting for an answer, he turned around and shouted, "Mom, stop hitting me. There are guests at home."
Zhuo Jia waved her hands quickly without thinking, and said with a look of disgust: "No, no, no, we don't know any Yan'er or Yan'er. We came here with Sister-in-law Zhaodi."
After saying that, she pulled Sun Jing and hid behind Han Zhaodi, looking like she didn't want to see this family.
Fan Li was stunned. He looked at Han Zhaodi hesitantly: "Who is this sister-in-law?"
He didn't remember there was such a person in their team.
Without waiting for Han Zhaodi to speak, the woman who came with them introduced Han Zhaodi to them, and then another aunt instructed her child to call Zhu Lanlan.
Sun Jing endured it again and again, but couldn't help but leaned out and asked, "No, you just watched your mother do that to your wife, and you didn't stop her?"
She really couldn't help it. This man, as her sister Yan'er's man, not only didn't help her sister Yan'er to block it, but he even had the mind to ask other questions. Is there something wrong with his brain?
Fan Li had a bitter smile on his face: "You just saw it, my mother didn't listen to me at all."
Since they are not Li Yaner’s family, what else is there to say?
Sun Jing: “…”
If Jia Jia hadn't held her back, she would have almost taken action!
Zhuo Jia glanced at Fan Li, then at Li Yan'er who was being beaten but still looking over here, and couldn't help but sneer. It was no wonder that Li Yan'er fell down and couldn't get out. Fan Li's face, especially the embarrassed look, really seemed to be able to fool people!
She pointed at Li Yan'er's position with her chin and said loudly, "If your mother doesn't listen to you, you can go over and help her get beaten. That's your wife. Don't you feel bad when you see her getting beaten?"
Even Fan Li's little tricks couldn't withstand two moves from her. I really don't know how Li Yan'er became so naive. Moreover, for such a long time, no one in the Fan family mentioned Lingling. They are not as good as the aunts around them.
Well, these aunts also helped to support Li Yaner’s mother-in-law!
Fan Li covered his chest and said, "I feel bad, but if I go to help Yan'er block it, my mother will beat me too. Then Yan'er will feel bad for me too. How can I let Yan'er feel bad for me?"
After saying this, he looked at Li Yan'er with affectionate eyes, who was slapped from time to time.
Sun Jing and Han Zhaodi: "..."
This really opened my eyes. How could there be such a man in the world?
Zhuo Jia's mouth twitched. She suddenly felt that there was a reason why Li Yan'er was obsessed with it. Who would have thought that there would be a white lotus at this time? No, it was a white lotus man. Listen to what he said, how considerate he is.
Oh, I can only be understanding!
Zhuo Jia turned around and said to Sun Jing, "You must listen carefully to what I say now. When you get married in the future, you must look at what the other person does, not what he says. A man who only talks but doesn't do anything is no different from a loser!"
She really gained a lot of knowledge this time.
Sun Jing glanced at Fan Li and nodded without hesitation: "I understand. If you feel sorry for a man, you will be unlucky for the rest of your life."
After saying that, he looked at Fan Li and shook his head. Anyone could see the disgust in his eyes!
Feeling the looks from the aunties and sisters around him, Fan Li couldn't help but blush. He quickly walked to his mother's side and said in a low voice, "Mom, let's go home first. If there's anything, we can talk about it at home. There are so many people outside. Don't let them laugh at you!"
Fan Li's mother glared at him and angrily scolded him, "Look all you want, you're not making fun of me, it's just that your wife is not faithful to her husband."
Despite the scolding, Fan Li's mother still turned around and walked back angrily.
Behind them, Zhuo Jia said quietly, "What did he say? His mother didn't listen to him, but now she does. You really can't listen to a word a man says."
She really tried her best. If Li Yan'er still couldn't see through it, then...
It’s still a light punishment to be beaten!
The woman standing next to them said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, so please stop talking."
Although she said so, the woman actually had no intention of stopping her. Not to mention that outsiders might not like it, they themselves sometimes also couldn't like it. But it was useless even if they couldn't like it. Li Yan'er couldn't stand up on her own. They, outsiders, could only help her temporarily, but not forever!
Zhuo Jia sighed: "Okay, let's not talk about it."
What are you talking about? The real owner is gone, who can you talk to?
Not long after, Han Zhaodi's cousin came hurriedly with a big belly, and a man beside her supported her carefully.
"Lanlan, slow down and don't be anxious. I'm not leaving." Han Zhaodi didn't care about anything else. Seeing her cousin in such a hurry, she hurried to meet her.
Her cousin finally had this baby after three years of marriage, so she has to be careful!
Zhu Lanlan walked up to Han Zhaodi and started crying: "Cousin, you're finally here. I was scared."
It was her first time giving birth and she had no family there, so how could she not be afraid?
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to accompany you." Han Zhaodi quickly coaxed her, patting the large bag she was carrying and saying, "I'm not leaving this time. I'll take care of you after you've had your confinement period before I leave!"
Her cousin is about to give birth, so she can't be afraid anymore.
Sanquan: “…”
Looks like he has to go back and please his mother again!
Zhu Lanlan nodded with tears in her eyes, then looked at Zhuo Jia and Sun Jing who were following behind and asked, “Cousin, is this your friend?”
Han Zhaodi nodded: "Yes, he is my friend, he came here to play."
Sanquan: “…”
Looks like I have to kneel down and please his mother!
