In the evening, Qiao Daguo really came back with a letter of introduction issued by the brigade.
The next day, before dawn, they took a tractor to the town, and then took a long-distance bus from the town to the city.
It takes more than two hours, almost three hours, by bus to get there.
On the way, Qiao Xiazhi slept all the way to avoid embarrassment and didn't talk much to his elder brother.
After getting off the car, Qiao Daguo asked, "Do you want to call Zhao Zhiqing?"
"No need, I know where he lives, we can just go there."
Seeing his sister's calm appearance, Qiao Daguo felt very nervous.
Considering how much my sister likes Zhao Zhiqing, she should have been very happy to go to the city, but she slept all the way and didn't look happy at all?
Instead of calling him to pick him up and tell him that she was here, she came directly to his house.
"Just come to the door, is this... is this okay?"
Qiao Xiazhi did not respond to Qiao Daguo's concern, but walked out of the station with her bag on her back.
There were many people riding tricycles soliciting passengers outside the station. Qiao Xiazhi randomly picked someone, took out the address he had written in advance and asked, "Uncle, are you going to this place? How much is it?"
The uncle looked at the address on Qiao Xiazhi's note and said, "This place is a bit far. Are you alone, girl?"
Qiao Xiazhi looked behind him and replied, "Two people, me and my elder brother."
"That's two cents for two people."
"Two cents, why don't you go and rob it." When Qiao Daguo heard that he could get two cents for pulling two people, he got a little excited.
The uncle didn't get angry after hearing this. Instead, he politely explained, "Young man, the place you want to go to takes me half an hour to get there on my three-wheeled motorcycle. Two cents is not much. I may have to call you Sanmao even if I don't care about others."
"One cent, go or not." Qiao Xiazhi said directly.
"Fifteen cents."
"It's only ten cents. If you don't go, I'll find someone who can."
The uncle thought about it and finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, one cent is one cent, I'll take the loss. Get in the car."
Qiao Xiazhi and Qiao Daguo rode a three-wheeled motorcycle directly to Zhao Zhiqing's house.
His family currently lives in a tube-shaped building. Although Qiao Xiazhi knows which room he lives in, the purpose of her visit this time is different from that in the original book, so this time she takes Qiao Daguo with her to guard outside.
In the original book, when Qiao Daguo brought Qiao Xiazhi to find Zhao Zhiqing, Zhao Zhiqing was just about to go out to have lunch with his childhood sweetheart.
It happened that he was alone when he went out.
What Qiao Xiazhi was waiting for was the time when he was alone.
"Brother, I'm a little hungry. Can you buy me two buns?" Qiao Xiazhi said.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Daguo hesitated, worried that his sister might run away alone, or that Zhao Zhiqing might come out and his sister would rush over and make a fuss.
Seeing his eldest brother's worried look, Qiao Xiazhi assured him, "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. If he comes out, I won't rush up stupidly. This is in the city, I know what to do."
After hearing this, Qiao Daguo said, "Then you just wait here and don't go anywhere. Don't follow anyone who tells you to go. Understand?"
Qiao Xiazhi nodded, "Don't worry, I'll wait for you here."
After making sure that his sister didn't seem to be lying, Qiao Daguo ran out to buy buns, looking back every few steps.
Not long after he left, Zhao Zhiqing came out of the tube-shaped building.
Zhao Zhiqing was going to have dinner with his childhood sweetheart, so he packed up specially.
He is dressed decently.
"Zhao Zhiqing!" Qiao Xiazhi called out to him.
Zhao Zhiqing heard a familiar voice. He was so happy that he didn't notice there was someone next to him when he left the building.
When Qiao Xiazhi called out to him, he turned around and saw that it was indeed his old acquaintance Qiao Xiazhi. He was quite surprised.
But before Zhao Zhiqing could say anything, Qiao Xiazhi made sure that there was no one around, stepped forward and punched Zhao Zhiqing in the face.
Zhao Zhiqing's frail body was knocked to the ground in an instant.
This was done only after Qiao Xiazhi had spent a day recovering and was using half of his strength.
If she used all her strength, she might kill the person with one punch. If she killed someone at this time, she would have to pay with her life.
Zhao Zhiqing's face swelled up suddenly after being hit, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, along with the tooth that was knocked out.
Zhao Zhiqing tried hard to get up from the ground and wanted to rush up to hit Qiao Xiazhi, but before he could do so, he was punched by Qiao Xiazhi again as soon as he got up.
This time he hit the other side, and also knocked out two more teeth.
Both sides of his face were swollen like bumps, but now that they looked symmetrical, Qiao Xiazhi felt it was better.
"These two punches are for your use of me over the past two years."
Immediately afterwards, Qiao Xiazhi raised his foot and kicked Zhao Zhiqing in the stomach.
He kicked Zhao Zhiqing several meters away.
"This kick means that I will have nothing to do with you from now on. Just think of it as me being blind to fall in love with a piece of shit like you. All the kindness I've shown you in the past two years is just like taking care of a dog."
"But the food and other things you've been eating and using at my house for the past two years weren't free. I roughly calculated when I came here, and the amount my family has spent on you over the past two years is about 120 yuan. I'll round it up to 200 yuan for you, and we'll keep our distance from each other from now on."
Zhao Zhiqing looked at Qiao Xiazhi in surprise and said, "You must be crazy for money, right? Two hundred, why don't you go and rob?"
"What you've eaten and used for the past two years was all given willingly by you, and it's only about twenty or thirty at most. Two hundred, that's not how you rob people."
