After staying in the Shanhe Brigade for a while, they all had a very happy time. As the time to leave was approaching, they were reluctant to leave.
However, they had already received the news from Lin Muchen and had bought the train tickets, so even if they were reluctant, it was time to leave.
Before Mrs. Zhao left, she was always in Mr. Lei's ear, giving him instructions this and that. Sometimes she would remember something in the middle of the night and would get up to give him instructions again.
Father Lei knew why she was like this. It was simply because she hadn't driven for such a long time and she wasn't used to it and felt uncomfortable.
He also followed Mrs. Zhao's instructions. Whenever she instructed him to do something, he would listen carefully, and today was no exception.
After listening to her mumbling for a while, I saw that it was getting really late and was worried that she might not come tomorrow, so I spoke.
"It's late, it's late, I've taken note of it, go to sleep quickly, you have to get up early tomorrow, or you will miss the bus later."
"Um."
Even after lying down, Mrs. Zhao couldn't fall asleep. She felt like she had missed something.
She was thinking in a daze and fell asleep unknowingly. Father Lei, who noticed her, tucked her in and went back to sleep as well.
…
The next day, Mrs. Zhao, who was thought to be unable to get up, got up very early. Father Lei was awakened by her noise and woke up with her.
The old couple went to the kitchen together to make breakfast for the family. One was busy putting rice into the pot, while the other squatted on a small stool watching the fire in the stove.
When everyone woke up, breakfast was already on the table.
"You're all awake now, sit down and eat, you have to catch the bus soon."
Lei Jun looked at the hot breakfast, yawned, and then said.
"Mom, Dad, why did you get up so early? Guihua said she would make breakfast for you, but I didn't expect that you and Dad had already made it."
Mrs. Zhao waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter who makes it. Just cook it and eat it."
"We just wanted to let you sleep a little longer. It's not comfortable to sleep on a train, and it's noisy with so many people."
"What's the big deal? An'an and Le'le can sleep well, so how can your mother not be able to do it even at such an old age?"
"Don't worry, I'm just old, I'm not a spoiled child. Okay, let's stop talking about this and eat."
Lei Zhenyi stepped forward and patted his eldest brother on the shoulder: "Don't worry, brother. I'm here to take care of your mother."
Father Lei also nodded: "Don't worry about your husband. Come and eat quickly. We have to send your mother and the others off soon..."
Seeing this, the others didn't say much and just went to the table and picked up their bowls to eat. After the meal, they sat and talked for a while, then they picked up their bags and prepared to set off.
A group of people came to the entrance of the brigade and saw Uncle Luo and Lei Jun who were already waiting there.
Today the oxcart was empty, and since there were many people leaving, the Lei family asked Grandpa Luo to drive the oxcart to take them...
Old Man Lei and Lei Jun followed them, sent them to the train station, and then came back with Uncle Luo.
An hour or so later, they arrived at the train station. The Lin family members who were waiting there waved excitedly when they saw them coming.
When the old couple from the Lin family saw Zhou Jianjun and his wife, they greeted and introduced each other, then looked at Lei Zhen and the others.
"Are the in-laws also going south?" Father Lin asked puzzledly as he looked at Father Lei who came with them.
"No, I came to see them off."
"Oh, so that's how it is." The two stood aside and continued talking.
Mother Lin also pulled Mother Zhao aside, muttering something about how hard she worked and how much trouble she was causing her.
As soon as they heard that the train was arriving at the station and they were about to get on, everyone said goodbye, as if they had given enough instructions at home.
Before getting on the train, Old Lady Zhao had nothing to say. She waved to a few people and finally said something to her eldest son.
