I had another happy day in the imperial capital.
At 10:20 in the morning on March 29, Chen Wang took his wife and little girl on the train home.
The journey was nearly a day and a night, and without the excitement we had when we first set out, it was rather boring.
Fortunately, I bought a lot of specialties and delicacies of the imperial capital. I ate and drank along the way, played flying chess bought from the department store with the little girl and Lin Xiuqin, and took a nap when I was sleepy. Time passed quickly.
At noon on the 30th, the train finally arrived in the city.
After finding a restaurant in the city and ordering a few dishes to fill their stomachs, the three of them went to the station and boarded the bus back to town.
After nearly two hours' drive, we arrived at the town's station.
It was impossible to walk back from the town on foot, I was already very tired, and I had to carry so much luggage.
Chen Wang stopped a tractor in the town. It happened that the owner's home was not far from Chenjia Village, and he came to the town to buy grain seeds for many families in the village.
In exchange for two dollars, they got the other party to agree to take them to the entrance of Chenjia Village.
After getting on the tractor, we swayed for another hour or so.
It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Chen Wang got out of the car first, helping his wife and the little girl down.
After taking down the luggage, I gave the driver two dollars.
"Wife, are you okay?"
Seeing that Lin Xiuqin beside him looked a little pale, Chen Wang asked with concern.
Lin Xiuqin covered her stomach with one hand, forced a smile, and shook her head.
"Sister-in-law is too tired, brother, let's go back and let sister-in-law rest!"
The little girl spoke.
"Yes, let's go, let's go back."
Chen Wang picked up two woven bags, one in each hand.
"Awang, you guys are finally back. Have fun!"
At the entrance of the convenience store, Lao Qian was eating melon seeds and joking with a smile.
Chen Wang turned his head to look at him, smiled and said, "It's not comfortable at all, I'm exhausted!"
"Haha... It's hard not to be tired when traveling far away."
"OK!"
Chen Wang took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag and threw it at Lao Qian.
Lao Qian hurriedly caught the cigarette and shouted in surprise: "Fuck, we can't buy this cigarette here, thank you!"
Chen Wang smiled, picked up the bag on the ground and walked away quickly.
I bought a few cartons of cigarettes, which were actually not expensive, but they were only sold in the market in the imperial capital, and they were all brands that were very popular among the people of the imperial capital.
As soon as I opened the door and walked into the house, I felt a lot more relaxed for some reason and let out a slow sigh of relief.
Lin Xiuqin's complexion improved a lot.
Although it is a rented house, the familiar environment of home can make people feel safe and relaxed.
"Wife, Xiaoyu, you two rest at home. I'll go check on Master."
Chen Wang walked into the room, put down his luggage, and said to Lin Xiuqin and the little girl.
Lin Xiuqin smiled and nodded, pointing to one of the woven bags.
"clear!"
Chen Wang nodded, opened the woven bag, and took out two vacuum-packed roast ducks.
In the city here, it is rare to see vacuum-packed cooked food.
It is already available in the capital, and the price is not cheap, five yuan a bag, and each bag contains a whole roast duck.
After thinking about it, Chen Wang took out another whole pack of Red Leaf cigarettes.
"Then I'll go. You take a good rest. I'll come back and cook. You don't have to work any more."
Chen Wang stood up and gave instructions to his wife.
Lin Xiuqin smiled gently and nodded.
"Xiaoyu, don't go out and play. Just stay at home with your sister-in-law. If you want to go out and show off, wait until you have dinner."
Chen Wang looked at the little girl again and said.
This time they went to the capital, saw so many new foods, and ate so many delicious foods, he knew with his butt that this little girl must be eager to go out and show off to the kids in the village.
After her secret was revealed, the little girl blushed with embarrassment.
"Oh, I get it, brother, you're so annoying, go now!"
…
…
Chen Wang carried the gifts to his master's house. On the way, he met many villagers who greeted him and stared at the roast duck and cigarettes in his hands with burning eyes.
It's rare to travel far these days, let alone to the imperial capital.
There are hundreds of people in the whole village, but I'm afraid not even one of them has been to the imperial capital.
Chen Wang opened a pack of cigarettes and tore it open, then gave a cigarette to anyone he met who greeted him.
We soon arrived at the construction site of the master's house and found that the main part of the new house was already half completed.
The workers were busy at work, and the master and Chen Dazhuang were watching from the side, helping out from time to time.
Several dogs and little monkeys also followed the master and Chen Dazhuang.
"Woof!"
“Squeak!”
Ruyi and the little monkey were the first to notice Chen Wang and rushed over happily.
Da Hu and Da Hei were a beat slow to react. After seeing Chen Wang, they also ran over shouting.
"Awang!"
"Awang, you're back!"
"Awang, when did you come back?"
Everyone who saw Chen Wang started to speak.
"I just got home. Thank you for your hard work!"
Chen Wang responded loudly with a smile, put a cigarette in his right hand under his armpit, and touched the little monkey that climbed onto his shoulder.
“Chichi… squeak…”
The little monkey gestured quickly with his hands, looking aggrieved, as if complaining that he had been away for so long.
"Okay, now I'm back. I'll go home and make you something delicious."
Chen Wang smiled in comfort.
"Awang, you'll be gone for a week. You guys must have had so much fun that you don't have to worry about anything at home."
