Don't all my relatives in the countryside go to the county town to visit my grandfather? What's the point of looking for me in the town?
"Hello! Who are you looking for?"
Zhou wanted to turn around, but Ling Quan was shocked by the black marks on her face. Whose girl is this? How many days has it been since she washed her face?
Zhou Xiang lowered his voice and said, "I'm looking for Ling Quan."
"That's me, what's up?"
"Can we go in and talk?"
Ling Quan hesitated for a moment, but still opened the door to the living room.
He moved a chair and placed it next to the sofa, "Come in! Sit here."
Zhou wanted to know how dirty he was, and because he was afraid that he didn't look like it, he rolled on the ground and his hair was covered with dust.
After sitting down, Zhou Xiang looked at the open door, still feeling uneasy, "Can we talk behind closed doors?"
Ling Quan hesitated. This little girl was nervous. If anything happened, he could still avoid suspicion.
Zhou Xiang simply stood up and closed the door himself.
Ling Quan kept shouting "Hey, hey, hey", but he couldn't stop Zhou Xiang from breaking the door.
"Okay, Uncle Ling, stop shouting, it's me." Zhou wanted to regain his voice.
"Think about it?"
"Shh!" Zhou Xiang quickly told him to shut up, then opened the door and looked outside. Seeing that there was no one outside, he locked the door again.
"Oh! Think about it, what did you do to get like this?"
Ling Quan asked in a low voice.
"I discovered something important, but I couldn't find anyone to report it to, so I had no choice but to come back to you. Does your father still have the power?"
Ling Quan saw that she had a serious expression and an extremely earnest attitude, and she didn't seem to be joking. Moreover, she was definitely dressed like this to conceal her identity.
So, how big a matter is it that makes her so cautious and even ask about the old man's authority?
"I can't say for sure, but he recognized the captain of the special team that Ranran was in."
"Special forces?"
"Yes! The people inside are all carrying out special missions."
Zhou Xiang thought it was feasible. It was a special mission. His discovery should belong to the special mission, right?
"Then can you take me to see the old man? Just as your poor relative."
Zhou Xiang pointed at himself.
"Now?"
"Yeah! Now, the sooner the better!"
"Well, then, I..."
Seeing him hesitate, Zhou Xiang asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"Your Aunt Ling's place..."
"Oops! Just leave a note saying it's urgent!"
"How about we wait until she comes back together?"
Unexpectedly, Uncle Ling’s tracheitis has reached the late stage and is incurable.
"Give me the address and write a letter to the old man, and I'll go by myself, okay?"
"Okay, that's great!"
Zhou wanted to roll his eyes to the sky, no, to the roof.
Holding Ling Quan's handwritten letter, Zhou Xiang left the town.
After finding the large courtyard in the east of the city, Zhou Xiang handed over Ling Quan's handwritten letter. After waiting for more than half an hour, he finally saw the legendary Grandpa Ling and the mother and daughter who had quarreled with him.
Zhou Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly. The mother and daughter were also at Wan's house yesterday. The girl went shopping with Wan Jing and had the same bad temper.
Looking closely at Mr. Ling, wasn't he the father and grandfather of the mother and daughter? He had even chatted with me for a few words.
But I am currently here to conceal my identity. Not only can I not reveal my true identity, I am also not sure what the relationship between this mother and daughter and the Wan family is. What if...
This matter must not be leaked.
Huai County is so damn small that I find myself everywhere I go.
The old man said gently, "Little girl, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The son only said in the letter that someone was coming from his hometown, but did not specify who it was or what the matter was.
"I, I want to find a job."
When the mother and daughter heard her speak, they immediately smiled sarcastically. They didn't know where this idiot came from, but her accent was exposed and she was trying to hide it.
"Go, go, go. If you want to find work, go somewhere else. This is not a charity. You liar, you are not a relative of the Ling family. Go away! Old Wang, kick this guy out."
Ling Jiaying waved her hand to chase the person away, and Grandpa Ling did not stop him. His daughter was right, the accent in her hometown was not like that.
He's already learned to lie at such a young age! My son is such a jerk that he didn't even notice it and even wrote a letter asking someone to come find him directly.
Zhou Xiang pretended to blush and turned away.
"Tsk! You're so young and you've already learned how to lie. I don't know where you got your name from, Dad, and you're trying to take advantage of me."
"Shut up! What are you babbling about? Is there anyone as mean as you who chases people away? From now on, stop being the boss here. It's not your turn yet."
"Okay, okay, I'm just angry, right?"
After Zhou Xiang walked out of the courtyard, he stood at the intersection, bewildered. Who should he look for? He had thought of everyone he could think of.
Who would have known that the daughter of the old man of the Ling family was actually related to the Wan family.
Isn't Mr. Ling's daughter Ling Ran's aunt? That girl is Ling Ran's cousin? No wonder Ling Ran didn't want to stay home during the New Year!
Who can stand having relatives like this?
When I think of Ling Ran, I think of the 'special team that Ran Ran is in' mentioned by Uncle Ling.
Oh! I'm so stupid. Why did I have to look for Mr. Ling?
When people get old, they often become indecisive in doing things. It would be better to go directly to Ling Ran!
However, it is definitely not possible now. Not only is the school’s National Day performance coming up, but my second sister’s wedding is also right around the corner.
I don't know how far away Ling Ran's team is. How long will it take to go back and forth?
There is no rush for this matter for now. Although the Wan family had some doubts that day, they later dispelled them. This gave them some peace and quiet so that they could feel more at ease.
Please take leave after National Day!
He found an opportunity to return to the space, restored his appearance, and returned to the Water Conservancy Bureau carrying a backpack.
Passing by Old Wei's house, he ran into Wei Juan's mother who had just come out. "Hey! Zhou Xiang, why are you back so early today? I was just planning to go to your house!"
"What's up?"
"Oh! It's like this, my Wei Juan is getting married, and the date is set for National Day. The banquet will be held at a restaurant outside. When the time comes, your family must be there on time!"
"Congratulations, but we can't go. My second sister is getting married that day, and our whole family has to go back. I'll ask Sister Tang to bring the gift money."
"Oh! How can I be so embarrassed! But that day is really a good day. I heard that several restaurants have chosen this day. If my old Wei didn't have acquaintances, we wouldn't be able to book a restaurant."
"Really? Your family is really capable. Well, you don't have to go to my house to invite me. I'll tell my mom. Bye!"
Zhou wanted to turn around and go home, but Wei Juan's mother was still mouthing a few curses behind her.
This was said by Tang Min. Zhou wanted to ask Tang Min who was coming towards him to bring the gift money for his family on National Day.
"Oh my! If you're not going to dinner, why are you bringing money? Wei Juan's mom was silently scolding you behind your back!"
Tang Min really didn't know that Wei Juan's mother was such a person. She used to think she was pretty good, but after this period of time, she found that the Wei family was really top-notch.
This is the word Zhou used when he wanted to describe Tang Mei's parents, his own cousin's family! It's very appropriate!
