Seeing that Wen Sihe had her own plans, Lu Zhiye didn't say anything more.
He just clenched his fists slightly. In this life, he must climb higher, no longer be constrained by others, and make sure that the people around him will no longer suffer injustices.
The next morning, Wen Sihe heated up the buns and cooked a large pot of sweet potato and multi-grain porridge.
Cheng Lianxin, who was standing by, got up early and bustled around the stove.
Seeing Wen Sihe cutting a large bowl of pickles and pouring oil to season them, Cheng Lianxin quickly came forward and said with a smile: "Hehe, we still have three days on the road, and we really can't eat or sleep well.
Can you bring some pickles? Your grandparents are old, and eating these won’t make them suffer so much on the road.”
Wen Sihe nodded slightly: "Do you need anything else?"
Cheng Lianxin looked at the bag of noodles and was about to make some bread to eat on the way.
But when he met Wen Sihe's slightly indifferent eyes, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"No, it's gone!"
At this moment, Meng Xiuyuan finished washing up and walked in. When he saw the big meat buns, his eyes lit up and he counted them secretly.
There were twelve buns heating up in the pot, apparently for two people.
Meng Xiuyuan coughed lightly and said, "Hehe, ah, can you heat up two more meat buns for me?"
Wen Sihe didn't say much. She just nodded and heated up two more buns inside.
After all, the noodles and meat were all paid for by Meng Xiuyuan. She was not so stingy as to not satisfy his small request.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Wen Sihe handed over a cloth bag filled with buns and some multi-grain biscuits.
Cheng Lianxin took the cloth bag with a smile on her face: "No wonder my sister-in-law is so well-educated. Look, He He is so thoughtful!"
Meng Xiuyuan secretly glanced at his wife, what a clever guy, you are the one who said that others are uneducated, and you are also the one who said that his sister is well-educated!
Cheng Lianxin noticed her husband's gaze, straightened herself slightly, and the smile on her face became even brighter.
She really seems like a kind and considerate aunt.
Lu Zhiye and Wen Sihe sent Meng Youdao and the others to the ox cart.
Everyone who was already sitting on the ox cart looked at the few people curiously.
There was a nosy lady who didn't care that the main person was also here, and she lowered her head and started discussing with each other.
"No wonder the young educated youth Wen paid so much money before. Look, look, these people, their postures are different from ours."
"Yeah, look at that woman, she must be around 40, but she looks like she's in her 30s."
"Alas, city people are not like us, who work hard in the fields, so of course they have time to take care of themselves. I guess a bottle of vanishing cream can last a month."
The whispering sounds in the car also reached Cheng Lianxin's ears.
She secretly touched her hands. Her hands had become rougher after running around for the past few days.
It seems I need to apply some face cream more carefully when I get back.
At this moment, an untimely voice sounded.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what's the point of being so proud? Xiao Wen and the other educated youth have already spent all their money.
Now they are borrowing food from the brigade. People say that an aunt is half a mother, but how can this aunt express her gratitude to the educated youth Xiao Wen? "
When Meng Xiuyuan heard the voice, he felt it was familiar. When he saw the old lady's face clearly, his head started buzzing!
Why can't this lady escape anywhere? He seriously suspected that this lady was working with Wen Sihe to cheat him out of his money!
Wen Sihe: I swear to God, this is such a coincidence!
Cheng Lianxin, who was immersed in everyone's praise, suddenly heard these words and her face froze slightly.
She turned her head and looked at her parents-in-law. Shouldn't they be the ones to step in and give the money?
She didn't believe that the two old people didn't leave any money for Wen Sihe last night.
However, Meng Youdao and Chu Hongying lowered their heads, looking at their noses and their hearts, as if they did not hear the discussion of others.
Seeing that the people in the car were discussing more and more outrageous things, they were already talking about how people from the city were not as wealthy as those from the country.
How could Cheng Lianxin bear it any longer? She straightened up and took out twenty yuan from her small bag.
She smiled kindly, "He He, we didn't know Xiao Ye before, but now that we see you living well in the countryside, we feel relieved.
My aunt wasn’t able to buy you anything when she came this time, so take this twenty yuan.
Eat when you should, drink when you should, but don't treat yourself badly.
My poor Jiaojiao, you have lost weight during this time in the countryside..."
Cheng Lianxin wiped her eyes with her sleeve as she spoke, and she looked at the people on the ox cart with tears in her eyes: "He He in our family has never suffered any hardship since she was a child.
I will have to trouble you ladies to help me in the future. After all, we are thousands of kilometers away, and it is not easy to come here.
If the young couple has any problems, they can still count on the help of the aunts. "
She spoke so sincerely that even Meng Xiuyuan was moved by his own wife, and the ladies in the car nodded repeatedly.
He patted his chest and assured, "Of course, Xiao Wen is in our village, don't worry!"
Cheng Lianxin thanked him repeatedly. Wen Sihe, who was standing beside her, was disgusted by his superb acting skills. She quietly stroked her arm, as if trying to rub off the goose bumps.
"Aunt, it's getting late. If we're any later, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch the bus."
Wen Sihe quickly reached out to take the money from Cheng Lianxin's hand.
But this sudden twitch has not yet twitched! Seeing Cheng Lianxin's painful expression, Wen Sihe "kindly" reminded: "Aunt, uncle and others are in the car! Cousin, cousin..."
This sentence made Cheng Lianxin suddenly let go of the money and climbed onto the ox cart in two steps!
Yes, her son is still waiting for them to go back and take action, so they can’t waste time here.
Master Lu San made a few "da-da-da" sounds, and the ox cart slowly started to move.
Meng Youdao sat at the back and looked at the two people standing side by side, his eyes reddened again.
Chu Hongying, who was sitting next to him, stretched out her hand and placed it on his big hand.
Meng Youdao shook his head secretly: I am old, old, the older I get, the more sentimental I become...
Meng Xiuyuan also quietly moved to the side of Master Lu Sanye. The ox cart was not moving fast, and Master Lu Sanye only waved the whip occasionally.
Seeing Meng Xiuyuan coming over, he smiled with his missing front teeth and said, "Are you leaving today?"
Meng Xiuyuan nodded, took out two big meat buns from his arms and handed them over: "Thank you for the past!"
Mr. Lu looked at the plump Baozi and waved his hands repeatedly: "You are the uncle of Xiao Wen, the educated youth, and we can barely be considered a family. No need to be polite.
You can eat these meat buns on the way, as they are far away on the train. "
Meng Xiuyuan stuffed the meat bun into Mr. Lu San's hand and said, "Don't be polite with me. He He has already prepared food and drinks for us on the road."
