Chapter 132: Setting off at Night
Even the second brother Lin, who had been silent the whole time, said, "Mom, I believe my little sister will be fine, ahem..."
He was just about to say that he would go too, when he heard Lin Xiyue say, "Second brother, your body has just recovered. You are in the stage of weak yin and weak yang, so it is not suitable for you to go to that kind of place."
When Brother Lin Er heard this, his face froze and he shook his head in embarrassment.
His body was indeed too weak. Although he could now live like a normal person, his physical condition was still far worse than that of a normal person.
Hearing his younger sister say this, Brother Lin nodded.
His physical condition had indeed been a burden to them in the past.
He decided not to try to be stubborn and just stayed at home to draw his designs.
Mrs. Xu was obviously prepared. As soon as Lin Xiyue nodded in agreement, she spoke immediately.
"I've asked the butler to prepare the car. It's a seven-seater business car. You can just put down the seatbacks and rest at night."
As Mrs. Xu spoke, she couldn't wait to urge Lin Xiyue and the others to go out.
After all, if she delayed for a moment, she wouldn't know what would happen to her husband and daughter there.
Lin Xiyue also knew her mood. She simply packed some clothes and then kissed the two little ones who were sleeping soundly in the cradle.
Lin Zhenxing had been waiting at the gate carrying his worn-out snakeskin bag, and next to him, Brother Lin was carrying two simple backpacks.
Seeing Lin Xiyue coming out, she immediately reached out and took the bag from her hand.
Mrs. Xu sent them to the car and then said, "Master Lin, you don't have to worry about anything at home. I will send two nursery maids over tomorrow to take care of the two babies."
Mrs. Xu was very thoughtful.
Although she seems to be impetuous and aggressive, she is actually a very meticulous person.
When Lin Xiyue and her family moved in, the villa had already been cleaned just one night later.
One can imagine how attentive Mrs. Xu is.
Lin Xiyue nodded and did not refuse.
Although the two little ones are easy to take care of, Mother Lin is still a little worried as she is taking care of them alone at home.
Although Second Brother Lin would help, he didn't know much about children after all, so many things still had to be done by Mother Lin herself. If there were two nannies, Mother Lin's job would be much easier.
As soon as Lin Xiyue got in the car, she folded down her chair and prepared to take a nap.
Xu Moyan sat in the passenger seat, ready to take turns driving with the driver at night.
Brother Lin sat next to Lin Xiyue. As soon as he saw his younger sister get in the car, he reclined the chair and closed his eyes to go to sleep.
Brother Lin looked at the watch on his wrist. It was now past nine o'clock in the evening.
He also imitated Lin Xiyue, put down the chair, leaned back and prepared to rest for a while.
We will probably reach our destination by daybreak, and then we may have to fight a tough battle.
Now he has to stay in good spirits and not hold his younger sister back when the time comes.
Lin Zhenxing was in the last row, where the seats couldn't be folded down. But since he was the only one in the row, he simply lay down on the chair and prepared to sleep.
The three people all had the same idea: only by getting a good night's sleep can they have the energy to work well the next day.
Xu Moyan, who was sitting in the front, looked back at the three people behind him, then poked the driver next to him, "Call me if you get tired. Don't drive when you're tired."
The driver nodded and concentrated on driving.
Xu Moyan also put down the chair and forced himself to rest.
The car was very quiet inside and drove smoothly on the streets at night.
After driving for about five or six hours, the driver became exhausted and woke up Xu Moyan.
Xu Moyan opened his eyes and realized that he had really fallen asleep tonight. He had not slept for a whole day and night since his second sister disappeared.
The worries in my heart overwhelmed my sleepiness.
Not only him, everyone in the Xu family hasn't slept much in the past two days.
He didn't expect that he would fall asleep as soon as he got in the car and slept for five or six hours.
Perhaps because he had a good sleep, his dizzy head felt much clearer. He switched seats with the driver and began to drive steadily.
After driving for another four hours, the car finally arrived at a small county town.
Xu Moyan was wearing a sports watch on his hand. He checked the time and it was already past seven in the morning.
The streets of the small county town have begun to get busy, with people rushing back and forth on the streets, some buying vegetables, some buying fruits, and some buying clothes and shoes, chattering in their local accents and haggling with the stall owners.
The crowded lanes have made it impossible for cars to move forward. There are no traffic police or traffic lights, so it is difficult for cars to move forward.
Xu Moyan had been driving since midnight and was feeling a little tired. Facing the chaotic streets, he honked the horn in annoyance.
It was too noisy outside, and several people who were originally asleep in the car began to open their eyes one after another.
Lin Xiyue adjusted her seat and turned to look out the window.
On the street, all kinds of breakfast snacks such as steamed buns, noodles, wontons and fried dough sticks were steaming on the stalls.
The car was stuck at the intersection and couldn't move forward for a long time.
"Now is the peak time when people gather in the town. If we have breakfast before leaving, there won't be so many people." Brother Lin, who was standing by, saw the little sister touching her stomach and knew that she must be hungry, so he suggested.
He had traveled all over the country before, and had come across quite a lot of villages and towns like this, so he was aware of the craze here.
Generally speaking, after ten o'clock, the number of people in the town will gradually decrease.
Those people from the villages who came to the town would go home, make lunch, and prepare to pick up their children from school.
Hearing what Brother Lin said, Xu Moyan, who was originally driving impatiently, parked the car to the side and everyone got out.
Lin Xiyue walked straight towards the most popular breakfast stall.
Lin Xiyue looked at the breakfast stall. No wonder this business was so good. There were really a lot of things for sale.
She ordered a bowl of hot dry noodles, a basket of steamed buns and dumplings, and when she saw that the boss was cooking spicy pork liver and radish soup in the pot, she ordered a bowl of that as well.
Seeing that she ate more than those grown men, the Lin father and son were used to it. Lin Xiyue's appetite was obvious to everyone at home, and now this amount was probably not enough.
Sure enough, after Lin Xiyue finished eating everything on the table, she asked the boss for a bowl of wontons.
Xu Moyan and the driver beside her were shocked by her appetite.
They each ate a bowl of hot dry noodles and drank a bowl of fried fish and tomato soup, and then they felt full.
It’s not because they can’t eat much, but because people in the town are more practical and one breakfast is more than two in the market.
Perhaps because she was already 80% full, Lin Xiyue ate the wontons more slowly. After she finished the whole bowl of wonton soup, she looked at the fried fish and tomato soup in Xu Moyan's bowl and asked, "How does this taste?"
