Chapter 158 Missed the Bus



After dinner, Gong Zhixuan drove them to the station to buy tickets and then sent them back to the guesthouse.

The cost of staying in the guesthouse this time was borne by the Public Security Bureau.

Cheng Jingmo hadn't slept for two days and two nights. He returned to the guesthouse, took a shower and went to bed.

At ten o'clock the next day, the three of them boarded the bus to Ping County.

The road is gravel and bumpy all the way.

After a little over ten hours of driving, Yu Xiangnian's bones were almost broken by the bumpy ride.

It was past eight o'clock in the evening when they arrived in Pingcheng. The three of them found a restaurant for dinner and then found a guesthouse to stay in.

Yu Xiangnian didn't even have the energy to go to the bathhouse to take a shower. He just washed up casually and went to bed.

The next morning, the three of them first bought tickets to the village, and then went to the department store to buy things.

Before they left home, Zhao Ruozhu instructed Yu Xiangnian several times to buy a set of clothes for Cheng Jingmo's parents and to buy a few pounds of candy to bring home.

The department stores in the small county town haven't put out the new spring styles yet, and the clothes inside are all thick cotton jackets and trousers.

Yu Xiangnian felt that she needed such an outfit!

The temperature in Ping County is two or three degrees lower than that in Sucheng. Yu Xiangnian feels that the spring here is colder than the winter in Nancheng!

In the face of the cold, Yu Xiangnian no longer cared about beauty.

She planned to buy two sets of cotton coats for herself and two sets for Xiaojie.

Cheng Jingmo refused, saying that he grew up in the mountains and didn't feel cold.

Cheng Jingmo chose a bright red floral cotton jacket for Yu Xiangnian.

Yu Xiangnian was so shocked that he couldn't say anything!

Is she wearing this to walk the red carpet in Cannes?!

Cheng Jingmo saw that Yu Xiangnian didn't like it, not just dislike it, but resistance to it.

He explained: "The women here like this."

Yu Xiangnian shook his head violently in protest.

Cheng Jingmo was also in a dilemma, "There aren't many colors to choose from."

That’s right, there are only three colors.

One is bright red, one is dark gray, and one is navy blue.

The other two colors, without any patterns, are more suitable for older women.

"Let's buy one." Cheng Jingmo said, "Maybe my family will set up a few tables for me to have a banquet, and I'll wear this to celebrate."

Yu Xiangnian: “…”

A little annoyed, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Setting up a few tables for the banquet meant holding a wedding for the two of them, so she must make a few beautiful dresses to wear at the wedding!

Cheng Jingmo saw what Yu Xiangnian was thinking and said, "You look good in anything. There's no need to prepare anything special."

Yu Xiangnian was confused and angry, "What do you know?!"

It wasn't her at the last wedding, and she's wearing such ugly clothes at this one!

Cheng Jingmo saw that Yu Xiangnian's eyes were red and he was a little at a loss.

He really thinks Yu Xiangnian looks good in whatever she wears, and looks even better when she's not wearing anything.

Fortunately, at this time, Xiaojie spoke sensibly, "Aunt, my uncle is right, you look good in anything you wear. That's what the aunts in the family compound all say."

These words successfully pleased Yu Xiangnian.

"Did they really say that?" she asked.

"Yeah!" Xiaojie nodded heavily.

Yu Xiangnian glared at Cheng Jingmo angrily and asked unhappily, "Do women in your place wear this at weddings?"

Cheng Jingmo also nodded heavily.

In the end, Yu Xiangnian bought one flowery cotton jacket and two gray cotton jackets.

I also bought a set of navy blue clothes for Cheng Jingmo's parents and two sets for Xiaojie.

They bought so many cotton-padded jackets at once that their suitcases definitely couldn’t hold them all.

Yu Xiangnian bought a large woven bag to pack the clothes, and also bought ten kilograms of fruit candies wrapped in red candy wrappers.

After Yu Xiangnian returned to the guesthouse's bathhouse to take a shower, he changed into a gray cotton jacket.

The few sets of clothes she brought from home were no match for the cold here.

At night, Yu Xiangnian turned sideways to the wall, ignoring Cheng Jingmo.

Cheng Jingmo hugged her from behind, "Nian Nian..."

Yu Xiangnian ignored him.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't sure if they would have a banquet, so I didn't tell you."

Yu Xiangnian still ignored him.

Cheng Jingmo gently held Yu Xiangnian's earlobe in his mouth. Yu Xiangnian tried to turn him with his hands, but he turned him over instead.

There was lust surging in Cheng Jingmo's eyes, and Yu Xiangnian could feel it through her legs.

"I was wrong. I promise there won't be a next time." His voice was a little hoarse, "Nian Nian..."

From the night before I left home to today, we haven't touched each other for more than a week.

Newly married couples are experiencing their first sweetness, and any casual touch can trigger passion.

Yu Xiangnian swallowed, his eyes softening unconsciously, "You keep your word."

"count!"

Yu Xiangnian hooked her hands around Cheng Jingmo's neck and kissed him with her red lips.

Cheng Jingmo was particularly fierce that night, and Yu Xiangnian didn't know when he fell asleep.

The result of excessive indulgence was that Cheng Jingmo's biological clock was disrupted.

Someone who usually wakes up on time woke up more than two hours late.

When the three of them hurried to the station with their bags, the car had already left.

Looking at the empty parking space, Cheng Jingmo lowered his head in shyness and guilt, while Yu Xiangnian was angry and wanted to laugh.

Not only were her legs sore from the long hours last night, but she also had to jog to catch the bus early in the morning.

But, I haven’t caught up yet!

It takes four hours to get from the county town to the township, and there is another bus at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Cheng Jingmo asked Yu Xiangnian, "Should we stay in the county town for another night or wait for the afternoon bus?"

Looking at two large boxes, a large woven bag, and a large backpack.

Yu Xiangnian didn't want to make more trips, "Just wait for the next bus at the station."

"Then I'll go buy the ticket."

When the three of them arrived at the village, it was seven o'clock in the evening and the sky was already gray.

Cheng Jingmo searched the village streets but couldn't find the carriage.

It takes more than two hours by horse carriage to get back to the village.

There was no guesthouse or accommodation in the village, but if they walked, it would take at least four hours, not to mention they were carrying so much luggage.

Now it’s really difficult to get off the tiger’s back!

Besides, Cheng Jingmo didn't want to make his family worry, so a few days ago when he was working on a case in Sucheng with Gong Zhixuan, he passed by the post office and sent a telegram to his family.

He said he would be home tonight at the latest.

If I can't go home tonight, I wonder if my family will worry.

Yu Xiangnian punched Cheng Jingmo angrily, "I'll let you suffer!"

Cheng Jingmo hung his head like a child who had made a mistake, "I'm sorry."

Cheng Jingmo thought about it and decided to let Yu Xiangnian and Xiaojie wait here while he would go there and come back quickly.

Go to the village to find a carriage, or ask your family to help with the luggage.

But it was dark now, and he was worried about leaving them here!

There’s no use getting angry!

Yu Xiangnian looked at the sky which was getting darker and darker and said, "Let's go!"
