The road in the county town was relatively flat, but once outside the county town, the road became bumpy. Fortunately, there was hay and bedding underneath, so Lu Jiaxin didn't feel too much bumps.
It was past five o'clock, and the sun was setting. At first, Lu Jiaxin and Lu Jiajie chatted casually, but the sunlight shining on her body made her feel warm, and she fell asleep unknowingly.
Lu Jiajie asked Zhao Dajun to stop, picked up a bag hanging in front of the bicycle, opened it, took out a blanket from it and covered her with it.
Zhao Dajun asked in surprise: "You brought a blanket, why didn't you tell her just now?"
Lu Jiajie was stunned at first, then he remembered what he had just said and said, "We often joke around with each other, you don't have to take it seriously."
Zhao Dajun felt that they were spoiling Lu Jiaxin too much: "You will spoil her like this. It's okay now that she is young, but you will suffer if she has an unpleasant personality in the future."
Lu Jiajie knew that he meant well, so he patiently explained, "My Xinxin is a little spoiled, and sometimes she throws a tantrum, but she is kind by nature and knows when to act."
He thinks it's not a bad thing for a girl to be a little bit spoiled and have a bad temper. His two sisters are like him, who are busy with everything and get sick at a young age. As a result, men are not grateful and think they are rude and not gentle enough. Jiaxin is good. Even if it's a lifesaver, you still have to order her around. Of course, he doesn't know about filters yet.
Zhao Dajun frowned and said, "You guys are so pampering her, aren't you afraid that after she gets married, she will be disliked by the man's family?"
Lu Jiajie laughed: "My sister is beautiful, has money, a house and abilities. If a man dares to despise her, she is spoiled and has a bad temper. She doesn't need us to tell her, she doesn't like her."
He thought it was better for the girl to have some edges, so that she would not be easily bullied. In the past, this girl looked powerful but was actually a paper tiger, so she was bullied by the mother and daughter surnamed Ding. But after experiencing life and death, she not only became stronger, but also more thoughtful. According to what the eldest brother said, this girl has transformed and left her peers far behind.
Zhao Dajun said nothing more. He would regret it later if he indulged his child without teaching him.
Lu Jiaxin heard the baby crying in a daze. She was so scared that she sat up, opened her eyes and saw Lu Jiajie. She asked sleepily, "Fifth brother, is Qiangqiang crying?"
Lu Jiajie joked, "You are so sleepy, we are on our way back to Lujia Village, Qiangqiang is in Sijiu City!"
Lu Jiaxin yawned loudly and asked, "Brother, how long will it take to get home?"
"It will be here in a while. Just keep sleeping, and it will be here when you wake up."
Lu Jiaxin sat up and looked around, and found that there were slopes on both sides, with no trees or grass on both sides, just bare ground. In such an environment, it is no wonder that drought is easy to occur.
"What are you looking for?"
"Brother, there are no trees here, it's all dirt."
Lu Jiajie was amused and said, "Loess slope is loess slope, of course it's all soil. You asked me the same question five years ago, why are you asking the same question now?"
Lu Jiaxin was embarrassed. Although she had the memories of her original body, she couldn't remember many things unless she thought about them.
Lu Jiajie stopped teasing her and said to her, "Jiaxin, after uncle and his family found out that you got lost on the way back home, they mobilized relatives, friends, and the entire Lujia Village to look for you, but unfortunately they didn't find you. Uncle got sick from worrying about this, and when they found out that you came alone again, uncle and aunt scolded me to death."
"If I have to scold someone, I'd scold my dad. Why would I scold you?"
Lu Jiajie gloated and said, "Do you think Third Uncle didn't get scolded? After knowing that you were missing, your eldest uncle and aunt took turns to call and scold your father. They also said that if he didn't find you, they would not recognize him as their brother."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt are the best."
In my memory, the two old people loved the original body very much. This has something to do with the fact that Lu's mother knows how to behave, and another reason is that the original body is good-looking and likable.
Lu Jiajie complained deliberately, "Uncle loves you the most. He knows that you are back safely and you will be fine after a short illness. This time when I came back and didn't see you, I didn't dare to tell them that I came to see you. I only dared to tell them after receiving the call from my eldest brother."
"Won't I be scolded later?"
"No, uncle only scolds me, my eldest brother and my third uncle."
Lu Jiaxin grinned. It's just that she should scold Lu Hongjun more, so that he won't be obsessed with sex and give all his wealth to the mother and daughter. Even if she doesn't want it, it's fine to give it to the Lu family! Except for Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu, who are hard to describe, everyone else is good. She still likes such a big family.
Time passed quickly as we chatted and walked.
Lu Jiaxin's mouth was dry from talking too much, so she drank some water and asked, "Fifth Brother, how long will it take?"
Lu Jiajie pointed to a big tree in front and said with a smile: "After passing that sycamore tree, the village is in front. Don't worry, my aunt was killing chickens when I left."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jiajie suddenly shouted, "Uncle, why are you here?"
Lu Jiaxin originally thought he was teasing her, but she didn't expect Uncle Lu and his second brother Lu Jiazong to really come over. It turned out that Uncle Lu was worried that they hadn't returned yet because it was getting dark, so he asked his second son to look for them.
When Uncle Lu came closer, Lu Jiaxin could see the father and son clearly. Uncle Lu was of medium build, wearing grey clothes, with a straight back and completely white hair. However, his eyes were bright and it was obvious that he was not someone who could be easily fooled.
Uncle Lu saw her sitting on the cart and thought something was wrong with her. He walked over quickly and told her to lie back down. Then he turned around and scolded Lu Jiajie: "Xinxin is not feeling well, why don't you send her to the hospital? You are in your twenties, but you are not as sensible as Da Huang at home."
Lu Jiaxin didn't understand the local dialect, but thinking about what Lu Jiajie had just said, she couldn't help but grin.
Lu Jiajie said in Mandarin with a bitter face: "Uncle, Xinxin is not sick, she is carsick, and she is fine now."
Lu Jiaxin didn't want him to be scolded for no reason, so he immediately explained, "Uncle, the smell on the bike is too strong and I can't stand it. Fifth brother saw me like this and was worried that I would vomit again on the bike, so he borrowed a cart to take me back."
Lu Jiajie felt that Lu Jiaxin was so considerate.
Uncle Lu pointed at Zhao Dajun and said in Mandarin with a dialect: "But it's not her who is pulling you, it's this big brother."
As the saying goes, a guest is a guest. How can you push your bicycle and let the guest pull your sister? But this time he didn't scold Lu Jiajie again. He just saw that Lu Jiaxin was protecting her brother! This is a good thing, and he is very happy.
Happy New Year, my dear friends. I wish you all good health, smooth work and a happy life in the new year.
