Yan Ning turned around and waved to the old man, "Please take it. You took the trouble to see me to the door."
The old man watched Yan Ning leave, clenching the fifty cents in his hand and feeling a little moved.
There are still many good people in this world!
Yan Ning came to the outside of the yard, took out the key from the space, opened the gate and walked in.
The door of the main room was suddenly opened, and Yan Yulin's head popped out from the crack.
"My sister is back... Sister..."
As he spoke, Yan Yulin excitedly opened the door and ran out to greet Yan Ning.
Yan Yuqi then walked out of the main room and said with a look of surprise, "Sister, you're back!"
"Big brother."
Yan Ning looked at Yan Yuqi and found that he was completely well now.
Later, Old Lady Yan also came out of the main hall. "Oh...it's really Miss Ning. It's so cold, you must be freezing. Come into the main hall and warm yourself by the fire."
Yan Ning smiled and said, "It's quite cold."
Yan Yuqi took the box from Yan Ning's hand and carried it into the main room.
Yan Ning and Yan Yulin followed him into the main room, and Old Lady Yan closed the door behind them.
In the main room, there was a big stove in front of the kang.
There were also some potatoes and sweet potatoes roasting on the stove.
Old Master Yan, Yan Guoshu and Song Xiuyuan sat around the fire.
Seeing Yan Ning come in, Song Xiuyuan stood up and dragged a chair to the side of the stove.
"Xiao Ning, come over and warm yourself by the fire."
Yan Ning walked over while greeting, "Grandpa, Second Uncle, Second Aunt."
She took off her scarf and gloves and put them on the kang, then sat down to warm herself by the fire.
Old Master Yan said, "Ning girl, when did you come back from Hong Kong? Why didn't you call your uncle to pick you up?
There are no ox carts in the commune now, how did you get back?"
"I took the train to Tongshi this morning and then took the bus to the commune.
I was lucky when I arrived, there was a sleigh pulling passengers near the station.
So I didn’t call back and just paid two dollars to have the old man pulling the sled take me back.”
As Yan Ning spoke, he picked up a sweet potato from the stove and peeled it.
Old Madam Yan had a smile on her face, "It's just right that Miss Ning is back. She can celebrate the New Year with us."
Yan Guoshu also said: "Yes, I thought Xiao Ning would stay in Hong Kong for the New Year this year.
It’s cold here, and I thought you would wait until winter is over before coming back.”
Yan Ning smiled and said, "I just came back specially to celebrate the New Year with everyone."
Then she turned to Yan Yuqi, "By the way, big brother, when did you wake up? Are you fully recovered now?"
Yan Yuqi nodded and said, "I woke up when I was still in Yangcheng Hospital. My father and uncle had just arrived at the hospital that morning.
I woke up in the afternoon, and even the doctor said I was a medical miracle.
After I was discharged from the hospital, they didn't allow me to stay in Guangzhou, so I followed them back."
After he finished speaking, Yan Yuqi thought of something.
In fact, he was not completely insensitive during the time he was unconscious.
During the first two days after he woke up he could feel someone feeding him something to drink.
At that time, he subconsciously thought that it was the hospital nurse who fed him the medicine.
But after he woke up, he found out that he had not taken a drop of water during his coma and had to rely on intravenous nutrient solution to replenish his body's nutrients.
Then what about the feeling that someone fed him something before he woke up?
Later, Brother Feng told him that his sister had called him two days before she woke up.
He somehow connected two unrelated things together.
He had a strong feeling that his waking up seemed to have something to do with Yan Ning.
Although Yan Ning was in Gangcheng at that time, it was impossible for him to appear in Guangzhou.
But the strong feeling in his heart kept lingering.
Yan Yuqi thought for a moment and said, "Sister, I heard from my friend that when I was still unconscious,
You called me, what did you want to talk to me about?"
Yan Ning ate sweet potatoes and said, "Nothing much, it's just that you haven't contacted me for a long time, and you haven't written to me.
I thought something happened to you, so I called you.
I didn't expect that something really happened to you. The next day I called my uncle and told him,
Otherwise, if something happens to you in Yangcheng, no one in your family will know about it.
Now that I know about it, I have to tell the rest of the family.”
Yan Ning thought that since it was Yan Guoshu and Yan Guodong who went to Yangcheng to pick up the person.
The Yan family must know what happened to Yan Yuqi in Yangcheng.
After all, matters concerning life and death cannot be concealed.
So she asked directly: "Brother, what happened to you in Yangcheng? How did you get injured so badly?"
After he finished speaking, Yan Ning felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange.
The few people who were smiling just now suddenly frowned, and no one looked happy.
She looked at Yan Yuqi and signaled with her eyes.
What's going on?
Yan Yuqi scratched his head and said awkwardly:
"He was ambushed while competing with the Tiger Head Gang for the black market territory in Yuexiu District."
Yan Guoshu sneered, "Your elder brother is very capable now. He has joined the gangs and is involved in fighting and killing.
When your uncle and I went to pick him up, he didn't want to come back with us!"
Yan Ning remained silent and did not eat the remaining half of the sweet potato in his hand.
Yan Yuqi lowered his head and let his father scold him, not daring to talk back.
If his father knew that he used to be involved in the black market in Jilin Province, he would definitely give him a severe beating.
Yan Guoshu looked at Yan Yuqi again and said sarcastically, "Since you are so capable, why did you make yourself look half dead?
Do you really think that you have grown wings? You are still young but you don't learn well. You follow those people to fight and resell supplies all day long.
I wonder how much money you made during your time in Guangzhou? Why don't you bring some back to honor your parents and elders?
Mr. and Mrs. Yan, who have always loved their eldest grandson, were also silent at this time.
Obviously, this matter is on Yan Guoshu's side.
There was silence for a moment.
Yan Yuqi slowly said: "Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, I know I was wrong, I shouldn't do things without considering the consequences,
I put myself in danger and made you worry about me. I am an unfilial son and grandson.
But don't worry, I have never done anything illegal or criminal.
I won't do that again in the future, and I will be careful about what I say and do.
I won’t do anything I shouldn’t do, and I won’t make you worry about me anymore.”
Yan Ning also followed to break the atmosphere, "Grandpa, Grandma, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, as the saying goes, those who survive a great disaster will have good fortune in the future.
After going through this disaster, my brother will have even greater blessings waiting for him.
And this year my eldest brother will be eighteen years old after his birthday, so he is an adult.
There is no such thing as easy in the adult world. If you want to make some achievements,
It is inevitable to endure some hardships. Only by going through all kinds of hardships can one become a successful person."
The next second she changed the subject, "But there's no need to venture into a dangerous place like Yangcheng.
It's the same for Big Brother to stay in Jilin Province and develop. It's better than staying in the brigade and working in the fields every day to earn work points."
