Chapter 213 Sending Xiaomei to the city for a ride
"Xiaomei, answer the phone."
Lin Qingqing reminded the dazed Xiaomei.
Xiaomei hurriedly looked up at the phone on the table. She pursed her lips and clenched her fists. She stood up and strode to the table to pick up the phone: "Hello."
"Dad, this is Xiaomei... Um, I just received a telegram at noon. How is Mom now?"
As she listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, until her face turned blue with anger.
She excitedly shouted, "What right does he have to come to my house to make trouble? I'm going to go today and will be home the day after tomorrow."
"No need to pick me up at the station, Tuo. I'm hanging up now."
She hung up the phone forcefully, trying her best to suppress her emotions. She glanced at everyone in the room and saluted the commander: "Commander, thank you."
After saying that, she looked at Lin Qingqing again: "Sister, I'll go out this afternoon, let's go home first."
Lin Qingqing stood up and said, "Let's go home first."
"Chief, please talk to Comrade Zhao and ask him to drive us to the city to catch a bus."
Zhou Lie stood by the door at this time: "I'll drive you."
"Then we'll go first, you guys go drive." After saying that, Lin Qingqing pulled Xiaomei out of the office.
The two went downstairs and walked quickly towards home.
Lin Qingqing looked at Xiaomei's expression and asked, "How is Second Aunt's injury?"
"He said his legs and arms were broken, his head was bruised, and he's in the county hospital. Tieshu was also injured, and Xiaoxing is being cared for in the hospital."
"How could he fall so hard?" Lin Qingqing frowned.
"The guy from the next village who broke off the engagement, I don't know why he broke up with his job in the city. I just left home when he came over and said he wanted to get married again, but my parents didn't agree. He shamelessly came to look for me several times, but my parents didn't tell him where I was, so he went around in several nearby villages saying that my parents had taken the betrothal money and were now hiding him. A few days ago, my parents brought people to our house to reason with us, and then a fight broke out between the two sides..."
Xiaomei's voice became more and more excited as she spoke, and she was even gritting her teeth when she spoke at the end.
How could she not be angry when her family was in such a state because of a scumbag!
If you give her a knife now, she can pick it up and chop people.
The two of them hurried out of the yard, and Xiaomei went into the house to pack her things.
Lin Qingqing also went into the house, took out three hundred yuan and a few sugar tickets that were previously rewarded from the mine from the space, and took out a pound of meat tickets, and put the money and tickets in her bag.
Thinking that Xiaomei could help bring some things this time, she took out four bottles of pills and eight bottles of facial cream from the space and placed them on the table in the living room.
Then I went to the empty room and took out six rabbits that had been drying in the sun, giving four to my family and two to my second aunt's. I also took out half of the remaining roe deer and venison.
Lin Qingqing had just packed her things in a sack when Xiaomei also came out packing her things.
She was carrying a large bag, even packing up the bedding she had brought with her.
Xiaomei didn't plan to come back this time, so she packed up all her things.
Mother is still seriously injured and needs to be taken to the hospital. She needs to be taken care of.
When something like this happens at home, we don’t know when it can be dealt with. Just the matter of Wang Jianshe alone will take a long time.
Once she returned to her hometown, she found herself digging in the fields. She no longer wanted to think about anything else, including her previous desire to study medicine.
Thinking of this, Xiaomei couldn't stop crying.
During her time in the army, she learned a lot, and her sisters-in-law were also very nice. She liked it here.
No matter how reluctant she is, this place no longer belongs to her.
"Have you cleaned up?" Zhou Lie appeared at the gate of the courtyard and asked. He had changed into a military uniform.
Xiaomei turned around and saw Zhou Lie standing handsomely by the door. Tears began to flow uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes. The tears slid down her cheeks to her chin and dripped onto the ground without stopping.
Zhou Lie walked over quickly, stopped two steps away from her, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Seeing Zhou Lie's concerned look, Xiaomei pursed her lips and her tears flowed even more.
Zhou Lie was suddenly at a loss.
Lin Qingqing took the bedding and a large bag of clothes from Xiaomei and put them on the ground.
"Go and see what's going on first."
Seeing that Xiaomei had even packed up her bedding, Zhou Lie's face turned pale.
Does this mean that you will never come back after you leave?
He hurriedly asked, "Xiaomei, you won't come again in the future?"
Xiaomei turned around, wiped her tears and said nothing.
"Let's go first and talk on the way." Lin Qingqing handed the sack of venison to Song Yiyuan.
Xiaomei picked up the bag she had packed. Zhou Lie took the bag off her shoulder and said in a low voice, "Let me do it."
Xiaomei pursed her lips without saying anything, and walked out with Lin Qingqing.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Xiuhong and a few others would come to the yard to work, and Lin Qingqing just closed the door but didn't lock it.
Lin Qingqing and the other three walked out. A sister-in-law noticed that some of them were carrying bags. Song Yiyuan was also carrying a sack. Lin Qingqing and Xiaomei were just carrying a cloth bag. The sister-in-law who was more familiar with Xiaomei asked, "Xiaomei, are you going to go home after visiting your relatives?"
Xiaomei forced a smile and greeted the person who spoke to her.
The car was parked at the gate of the military compound and did not drive in.
The four of them walked to the door. Song Yiyuan put down his things, opened the rear door first, and then loaded everything into the car.
Zhou Lie had already sat in the driver's seat and started the car.
It takes three hours to get to the city by car, and time passes quickly and slowly.
Xiaomei looked at the scenery outside the car that was constantly receding. She no longer felt the excitement she had when she first rode in a car. She felt so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.
Zhou Lie frequently looked up to see Xiaomei's expression in the rearview mirror.
Seeing Zhou Lie's anxious look, Song Yiyuan turned to look at Lin Qingqing and asked, "What happened in Xiaomei's hometown?"
Lin Qingqing looked at Xiaomei. These were Xiaomei's family affairs and she couldn't tell them directly.
"I won't talk about family matters."
Zhou Lie asked, "At that time, the chief's office called and Xiaomei said someone came to our house to cause trouble. Who was it?"
The current situation is very strict, yet there are still people who disregard the law and provoke trouble.
Xiaomei frowned and felt that there was nothing she couldn't say.
Maybe after Zhou Lie finds out, he will think that she has too many things to do at home and won’t want to date her anymore, so she doesn’t have to worry about it anymore.
She let out a sigh and told him about the situation at home.
