"Shitou, why don't you sit at home?"
But Shitou ran up to her and held her hand, looking at her with sparkling eyes.
"Sister is going to see her second brother tomorrow. Can Shitou go with her?" The family has been divided. While the village chief is letting her rest now, she will go see her second brother tomorrow and talk about the division of the family.
"Really?" Shitou was suddenly happy, "I miss my second brother!"
He hasn't seen his second brother for a long time!
"Really." Zhang Xingrong nodded. "Come on, let's take a shower and go to bed early so we can get up early tomorrow!"
The brother and sister took a shower and went to bed.
The next day, Zhang Xingrong and Shitou made red bean porridge and jelly, and used the flour they had bought yesterday to make scallion pancakes. Then they left the village with their backpacks.
Zhang Hewu was building a road in a mountain village more than ten miles away.
The brother and sister walked for two hours before they found the village.
Before they even got close to the construction site, they heard a loud banging noise. When the brother and sister approached, they were stopped by someone.
"Where are you going? The road here is dangerous. Let's go into the village and take the side road!"
Zhang Xingrong shook his head. "Comrade, we're here looking for someone. My second brother, Zhang Hewu, works here. We haven't seen him for a long time, so we wanted to see him!"
"Zhang Hewu?" The person on the other side was delighted when he heard the name. "You're here to look for Zhang Hewu. He's a good worker here. Wait for us!"
As he spoke, the man called for someone to go. Not long after, Zhang Hewu followed.
Zhang Hewu was tall, with a large frame. Though thin, he looked quite sturdy. His skin was tanned, probably from too much sun, and he was sweating. He had short hair and a face that bore a passing resemblance to Zhang Xingrong; he was handsome and energetic.
When Zhang Xingrong saw her second brother again, her eyes turned red.
In her previous life, when she was released from prison, her second brother was already dead. She didn't know why he died. The cause hadn't been fully investigated before he died. But she knew it was definitely connected to Zhang Xinglian!
"Why are you here?" Zhang Hewu saw that she was in a bad mood, "Have you gotten into trouble again? Even if you did, I can't help you!"
Although she was his biological sister, their relationship was not very good. If Zhang Xingrong hadn't caused any trouble, she wouldn't have come to him.
Zhang Xingrong's eyes were red, and she didn't know what to say for a moment. She knew her second brother hated her too.
"Second brother!" Shitou ran out from behind Zhang Xingrong and pounced on him.
Zhang Hewu didn't expect that Shitou would come back too. He was very happy and didn't care about Zhang Xingrong. He squatted down and asked him if he had been bullied.
Shitou's eyes sparkled: "No, I'm very strong. I'll beat anyone who dares to bully me!"
Zhang Hewu was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Zhang Xingrong. She actually knew how to protect her brother?
"I came to see you today for something. You haven't eaten yet, right? Eat something first, and we can talk while we eat." Zhang Xingrong said as he put down the backpack on his back.
Zhang Hewu was even more surprised. Food? Rong Ya actually brought her food? He couldn't believe it. This sister used to be more selfish than anyone else.
"Delicious pancakes and jelly!" Shitou was excited when talking about food, "They were all made by my sister!"
As he spoke, Zhang Xingrong had already taken out jelly, cakes, and a pot of porridge from his backpack!
Actually, the pot of red bean porridge was just outside the mountain pass, secretly moved out of the space. It would be tiring to carry a pot of porridge for such a long distance, so of course it was put in the space!
Zhang Hewu was stunned when he saw so many things.
