Chapter 639 Stay
Song Moting and his team arrived early the next morning.
As soon as they got the letter of introduction, they drove there hurriedly because Qin Ming couldn't keep taking leave.
Song Moting and Jin Dachuan came together.
This time they didn't drive a sedan, but a station wagon.
With three kids, Jiang Lei, and their two cars, it would be a bit crowded. If they took a minibus, the kids could lie down and sleep in the back seat.
Jiang Xiaoxiao wanted to come along, but it was no use.
How could Fan Xiuying and Jiang Laoshi let her travel such a long distance when she was pregnant with two little babies?
Why is a pregnant woman jostling on the road? If something happens to her, how can the couple feel at ease?
Something happened to the child and now he has finally been rescued. If Jiang Xiaoxiao makes trouble again, something will happen.
That's so frustrating.
Song Moting and Jin Dachuan brought a lot of food. Song Moting had guessed that the situation at Bai Yiyi's second uncle's home would definitely not be very good.
Although it was already 1981 and every household in the countryside had contracted production to each other, the spring breeze of reform and opening up had not yet allowed people all over the world to live a prosperous life.
It takes time.
Many rural people still live a difficult life.
With one phone call every day, they could tell from Jiang Lei's description that life at home for Bai Yiyi's second uncle was very difficult.
When getting on the bus, Jiang Xiaoxiao asked him to bring 500 kilograms of flour and 200 kilograms of rice.
Anyway, there are plenty of these things in Bai Xiao's small space, and it doesn't take much effort. They have a car to pull them over.
Of course, no one told them where the rice and flour came from, and everyone thought they were bought by the couple.
After unloading the grain, Bai Jiefang and his wife were extremely grateful.
"Xiao Song, this is not possible. How can you bring so much food? Your life in the city is not easy either. The amount of food in those two books is limited. How much money will it cost for you to bring so much for us?"
Bai Jiefang and his wife were honest people. Although I didn't know how much money they spent, I could guess that with so many things, it would cost a lot of money and food coupons.
The couple thought they were going too far.
The Song couple never gave Bai Yiyi any living expenses, making them support their niece for nothing, and now they want things from them.
No matter what, they are people who have to save face.
I can't do such a shameless thing, it's a face full of shame.
Song Moting smiled and said, "Brother, we are all family. Bai Yiyi is my biological sister. If we go by seniority, I have to call you second uncle. It's inappropriate for you to be so polite to me."
Bai Jiefang was also happy for a moment. Indeed, the generations were messed up now. Jiang Xiaoxiao recognized Bai Yiyi as her sister, and he himself became Song Moting's uncle.
"Let's go our separate ways. You should just call me big brother. If you call me uncle, it will make me sound old. I'm also embarrassed to call you nephew."
Bai Jiefang relaxed all of a sudden. The people in the city are very friendly, even though they have helped their family so much.
But he doesn't look condescending at all.
Instead, he seems like a relative in an ordinary family.
"Okay, big brother, I'll call you big brother. I can't bring myself to call you uncle."
Song Moting follows the local customs.
Bai Jiefang invited them to sit inside and prepare to serve everyone dinner, but Song Moting smiled and told him that there was no need to prepare anything.
"My family is very worried. They are all worried about the children. I think I should take the children back as soon as possible, otherwise their mother will be so worried that she won't even be able to sleep."
Their whole family has been worried these days. The old man and the old lady have coaxed them into saying that the children will stay at their grandmother's house for a few days, but this time cannot last long.
What if one day the old lady really misses her great-grandson and runs to Fan Xiuying's house, then the truth will be revealed.
Song Moting glanced at Bai Yiyi.
"Yiyi, have you finished your work? If not, brother-in-law can wait here for a few days. We will go back after you finish your work."
Bai Yiyi looked absent-minded.
It was only when Cuifen pulled her that Bai Yiyi came to her senses.
"Brother-in-law, don't wait for me. I have something to do here. You can go back with the dumplings first. Otherwise, my sister will be worried to death. I'm fine here. I have my uncle and aunt to protect me. I'm sure nothing will happen to me. I'll go back after I finish my work in a few days."
Bai Yiyi already knew that there was something wrong with her mother's body, and no one of them disbelieved Tangyuan's words.
Only the three children know the secret of Tangyuan.
The only two adults who knew about this were Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting. Apart from them, no one else knew that Tangyuan had such extraordinary abilities.
Bai Yiyi couldn't be so cruel as to just leave her mother behind, so she thought for a long time before deciding to stay and go see her mother, even if it was just to remind her to go to the hospital for a check-up. It would be better than just standing by and watching her condition getting worse day by day.
She had learned medicine from Jiang Xiaoxiao and knew that any minor illness could turn into a serious one if left untreated.
Although she was heartbroken that her mother abandoned her, she could not really abandon this family relationship.
Song Moting glanced at Bai Jiefang, "Originally, the child came back this time because her mother was released from prison. The child is still worried and wants to see her mother once, so you go back first. We will make sure to send the child back when the time comes. We must not let anything happen to her."
Bai Jiefang helped Bai Yiyi explain, and the couple also made up their minds that they must send the child back when the time comes, in case they encounter human traffickers again on the way.
Being uncles and aunts will make them feel guilty for the rest of their lives.
Song Moting was worried about leaving Bai Yiyi alone like this. She was afraid that something really might happen. Jiang Xiaoxiao valued Bai Yiyi so much.
It's not like he didn't know that. Besides, after living together for so long, he really treated Bai Yiyi as his own sister.
Although sometimes he hated Bai Yiyi and felt that this little girl was just a super light bulb.
However, deep down, this child still occupies a very important position in their hearts, no less than dumplings and buns.
"Why don't we all just stay here, even if it's a few days later. I happen to have a car, and if Bai Yiyi wants to go see her mother, I can drive her there, which is more convenient."
Song Moting still couldn't let go.
Bai Yiyi was a little anxious.
"Brother-in-law, my matter has delayed everyone for so many days. You still have to go to school, and my sister also needs someone to take care of her. Tangyuan and Baozi can't stay here forever. If they are found by grandpa and grandma, it will be terrible. They are so old.
If something happens to me, I will feel guilty. Don't worry, I will be fine if I stay here alone. I will be taken care of by my uncle and aunt.
Seeing Bai Yiyi's anxious look, Jiang Lei spoke.
"Brother-in-law, you should take Tangyuan and Baozi back first. If anyone wants to stay, I will. I am Bai Yiyi's brother, so it is not a matter of course for me to take care of her. Besides, I promised my second uncle that I would help him raise the Angora rabbits. Anyway, no one would say anything if I took a leave from my job.
It's different from you. You go to school and learn real knowledge. And you have to go back to take care of my sister. So just do as I say. You go, and Yiyi and I stay. When we go back, I'll take Yiyi with me."
Jiang Lei made the final decision.
