Chapter 14 014 Responsibility
Bai Yichen lowered the car window and saw An Xin looking at him blankly with an ignorant look on her face. He couldn't help but say something in a deep voice.
“Get in the car!”
He really didn't expect to meet this woman on the road. He had driven out for a long time before he remembered that this woman was An Xin, the wife he was going to marry in a few days, so he backed the car back.
The man's deep and familiar voice floated into Anxin's eardrums. Now Anxin finally understood why the man looked familiar.
Oh shit, isn’t this the guy she had sex with as soon as she came here? I thought that besides the magic weapon of portable warehouse, I could really get whatever I wanted, but it turned out to be an acquaintance.
Really, I almost didn’t recognize that the man would become my husband a few days later.
Open the car door with confidence and get in.
Rather than walking back exhaustedly, Anxin would rather take a car.
The car started again. While driving, Bai Yichen glanced casually at the woman sitting in the passenger seat in danger, and spoke in a faint tone.
"What are you doing in the provincial capital?"
People in the village generally don't go to the provincial capital. Even if they want to buy something, they will go to the county town. The consumption level in the county town is still relatively lower than that in the provincial capital.
The geographical location of Chahe Village is very special. It is not only close to the county seat, but also to the provincial capital.
Not only did An Xin go to the provincial capital, but she also came back so late? Villagers who go to the city usually go home early because they still have farm work to do.
Hearing the man's question, An Xin glanced at him indifferently. The man had one hand on the car window and the other hand lazily holding the steering wheel. Between his every move, an indifferent and cold aura inadvertently emanated from him, reminding An Xin that they were still strangers.
"Oh, isn't our wedding in two days? I was thinking of going into the city to buy some things for the wedding."
It was only then that Bai Yichen noticed that An Xin was carrying a large cloth bag on her back. The bag was bulging with something unknown inside, so he had to ask her something to make conversation.
"Have you bought everything?"
It's true. She's getting married in two days. Normally, a bride who's being married off as a substitute would stay at home and wait for the groom to come and marry her. But the conditions of Lao An's family are there. Her father died not long ago, her mother is bedridden, and her younger brothers and sisters are so young. If she doesn't worry about this, she's afraid that she won't be able to dress herself up like a bride on the wedding day.
An Xin didn't expect the man to ask this, and she decisively answered in the negative.
"Not yet. I haven't bought a lot of things yet. I'll go to the provincial capital tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to have a look."
If she says she has bought everything, then what excuse can she find to go to the provincial capital to make money tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
So, buying wedding supplies is a good reason, and she has to make the most of it.
An Xin's answer made Bai Yichen raise his eyebrows in surprise, and a word uttered from his throat.
"Um……!"
I continued to drive with full concentration. The roads in the mountains were difficult to drive on, and I had to put in my full concentration when driving at night.
The carriage suddenly became quiet, and the sounds of insects, birds and animals could be heard in the distant woods. An Xin did not ask Bai Yichen what he was going to do. Just looking at the road ahead silently.
She didn't want to make small talk. The situation between them was already very delicate, and An Xin didn't want to get closer to them so quickly.
The car moved forward crookedly and soon drove directly into the village. An Xin thought that Bai Yichen would stop at the exploration team at the entrance of the village and let her walk back, but she didn't expect that he would step on the accelerator and drive An Xin directly to her doorstep.
The dazzling car lights illuminated the shabby little courtyard of An Xin's home. Her sister Anyang and her two twin brothers Anwen and Anwu heard the noise, came out to take a look, and saw An Xin jumping out of the jeep.
The younger brother and sister rushed over quickly, shouting.
"Sister, are you back?"
As An Xin got out of the car, she saw two little ones rushing directly into her arms, their furry little heads rubbing against her arms. She hugged the twin brothers on both sides and spoke gently.
"Well, I'm back. Anwen and Anwu, have you been naughty today?"
Little boys are always a little more naughty than little girls. Even little boys who grew up in the countryside are very naughty at Anwen and Anwu's age. They make themselves dirty every day, like little pigs, and smell of sweat.
An Wen and An Wu stared at the cloth bag on An Xin's body without blinking? A very clever answer.
"No, we were all very good today and even went to the fields to get grass for the chickens."
An Xin opened the cloth bag with a smile, took out some candies from it and stuffed them into the hands of her younger brother and sister. These candies were taken from the warehouse on her way home alone. She also took out a lot of daily necessities from it and put them into the cloth bag she carried with her.
When Bai Yichen got out of the car, he happened to see An Xin smilingly putting candies into the hands of her younger brothers and sisters. The three little ones happily took them and put them in their mouths. An Xin looked at her younger brothers and sisters with a doting face and smiled with a satisfied expression.
The man couldn't help but shook his head secretly, went around to the back of the car, pulled out a bag of rice and half a bag of flour, thought for a while, then took out two bags of sugar and said to An Xin.
"When I went to the city to do some work today, I bought some food and sugar. I'll move them into the kitchen first."
When he went to An Xin's house to propose marriage, he could see that An Xin's family was almost unable to make ends meet. It happened that he was going to the city to do some business this time, and saw that there was still some grain brought from the north, so he asked Hu Zi to move some of it onto the car.
To be honest, the land has been contracted to households for several years. People like the Lao An family who still can't get enough food should be considered a particularly poor household, right?
An Xin was playing with her younger brother and sister, but she didn't expect Bai Yichen to buy food for their family, so she subconsciously refused.
"You don't have to buy food for us. I went to the city today and bought some food. We won't be hungry for the time being."
After saying that, he took out a small bag of rice and a small bag of flour from the cloth bag. It should not be Bai Yichen's responsibility that their family was in such an embarrassing situation of not being able to make ends meet.
This small bag of rice and noodles was taken out by An Xin from her portable storage. In order not to arouse other people's suspicion, she deliberately took it out in small amounts.
All she had to do was make sure that Lao An’s family wouldn’t go hungry. Anyway, she had plenty of supplies in her portable warehouse and could take them out whenever she wanted.
She just had a one-night stand with me, but she not only gave me a large sum of money for the betrothal gift and the marriage, but now she even gives me food. An Xin feels unworthy of it.
Bai Yichen's eyes swept over the small bag of rice and flour in An Xin's hand. There was no expression on his face. His eyes were still indifferent and no emotion could be seen. He just threw out a sentence.
"Since we've bought it, we'll have to eat it someday. I'll carry the rice and noodles in first!"
Just be at ease with the small bag of rice and noodles in your hand, fearing that it will only be enough for tomorrow.
