Yu Mobai smiled and said, "Do you want me to come and keep you company?"
"Come on, if you dare to come, I dare to make you accompany me."
Yu Xinran said with a smile, "Alright, I have something to do over there. Answering your call took up more than ten minutes of my time."
"I'll pay you overtime, okay?"
Yu Mobai said.
"Holiday pay is tripled, please transfer it to my salary card."
Yu Xinran said with a smile, "Bye-bye, you scumbag, you deserve it."
"Dududu..."
Hearing the busy tone on his phone, Yu Mobai threw it onto the bed.
And so the night passed.
The next morning, Yu Mobai received a message from Dong Yike. Dong Muhong and Ji Zhigang had a big fight the night before, and then Dong Muhong dragged her to buy train tickets early in the morning to "run away from home".
Where to?
"The place where I used to live."
Dong Yike said, "It's also where I went to elementary and junior high school."
Yu Mobai frowned slightly, "It's the Spring Festival travel rush right now, there are so many people, it's very inconvenient for the two of you to catch the train."
"Where are you? I'll come and take you there."
"At the train station."
Dong Yike said, "Don't come. We can get there in just a few hours by train."
"Wait for me, I'm on my way."
After finishing his sentence, Yu Mobai hung up the phone immediately. He didn't even have time to eat breakfast and drove his car to the train station.
It was during the Spring Festival travel rush, and there were so many people, but most of them were returning home, since not many people worked in this small county.
Yu Mobai easily found Dong Yike at the entrance of the station. "Where's Aunt Dong?"
"Inside."
Dong Yike's face fell. "I'm sorry, my mom is too stubborn."
"What's it to you?"
Yu Mobai smiled and said, "Let's go, we'll pick up Aunt Dong and then set off."
“I didn’t tell my mom you were coming, so be prepared.”
"What's there to be afraid of? I know Aunt Dong well."
Dong Yike didn't say anything, but led Yu Mobai to the passenger seats. "Mom, Mobai said there are too many people on the train, so he wants to take us back."
What are you doing here?
The cuffs and collar of Dong Muhong's clothes were worn, and it was obvious at a glance that they were quite old.
Even though she and Ji Zhigang got their marriage certificate, she didn't spend a single penny of his money.
Dong Yike asked her why they took turns buying groceries each day. In Dong Muhong's words, only by spending their own money can they feel confident enough to just go whenever they want.
However, no matter what, Yu Mobai is the junior and she is the senior, so she can't directly vent her anger on him, even though what he did was inhumane.
"Aunt Dong, I've come to see you off."
Yu Mobai smiled and said, "I'll take you home."
"No need, I've already bought the ticket."
Dong Muhong pulled her suitcase inside, and Yu Mobai followed behind.
"Don't follow me. I won't let you be with Xiao Ke."
Dong Muhong said coldly, "I will not let my daughter experience the pain I have gone through. And please, do not bother Xiao Ke again."
"Aunt Dong, I'm just taking you home."
Yu Mobai smiled and said, "I don't want anything."
Dong Muhong took out the train ticket. "I've already bought the ticket."
"You can get a refund."
While she wasn't paying attention, Yu Mobai snatched the ticket from her hand and ran to the service desk to get a refund.
Then she ran back and stuffed the money into Dong Yike's hand, "Aunt Dong, there are no more cars now, you should ride in my car, right?"
Dong Muhong didn't say anything. She pulled her luggage and said, "Xiao Ke, come with me. We'll take the bus home."
"mom..."
Dong Yike couldn't do anything about her mother. She could refuse to go with her, but she was more worried if Dong Muhong went back on her own, so she had no choice but to follow her with her suitcase.
The end of the year is roughly the coldest time of year.
The wind was howling outside, and the group waited by the roadside for a long time but no bus came by.
Dong Yike also clung to Dong Muhong's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, it's too cold. Let's ride in Yu Mobai's car. We can turn on the air conditioning and it will be warmer."
Dong Muhong felt sorry for her daughter and didn't want to ride in Yu Mobai's car, so she kept waving at passing taxis. "There are plenty of cars on the street. Look, there are some right here. Take a taxi and we'll go straight to the bus station."
Seeing this, Yu Mobai quickly ran a few steps to the taxi, opened the door and said, "I'm sorry, driver, my mom is angry with me and is deliberately not taking my car. She insists on taking a taxi, so I won't trouble you."
"Young man, you're so old and you're still making your mother angry. Be careful."
The driver said with a smile.
Yu Mobai smiled, but this also disrupted Dong Muhong's plans.
He returned to the two of them and said, "Aunt Dong, the taxi driver just said he had something come up and couldn't pick up any more passengers."
"Then let's call another one."
After waiting for a while, Dong Muhong waved and a taxi stopped.
Dong Yike and Yu Mobai exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with helplessness.
Yu Mobai raised an eyebrow, indicating that he should hand it over to me. Then he ran off and came back shortly after, saying, "Aunt Dong, the driver was in a hurry to find the restroom and stopped to ask for directions."
Dong Muhong ignored him and continued to hail a taxi, but each time Yu Mobai would run over first and chase the driver away.
For more than ten minutes, the three of them remained standing by the roadside, the cold air seeping up from their feet.
"Mom, it's too cold. Let's ride in Yu Mobai's car."
After a few more minutes, and with Dong Yike constantly complaining of being cold, Dong Muhong finally agreed to ride in Yu Mobai's car.
