Chapter 438 Leaving Zhangjia Village



He stood up and went to pick up the package in the house.

Zhang Sinian and Xiao Li also followed and helped carry the package.

There is strength in numbers, and a few packages are not a problem at all.

"Ouch..." When the door was opened, the person who was eavesdropping at the door screamed and was about to fall into the yard.

Seeing this, several people stepped back at the same time.

"Aunt Gao, what are you doing..." Bai Rong frowned, pretending not to understand.

"Nothing... nothing, I'm just tired of standing, so I sat on your doorstep to rest for a while!" She explained awkwardly after being caught eavesdropping on other people's conversation in public.

His face turned red and blue.

Bai Rong was too lazy to pay attention to them.

Watching them stand up angrily and hide in the crowd.

Several people walked out of the yard, locked the door, and headed straight for the car.

"Wei Guojia, what does this mean? Judging from the situation...are we moving away?"

"That shouldn't be the case! Two of the family members are soldiers, and now they are high-ranking officials. They may be going back to the army. As for Bai Rong and her daughter, they are probably going to see someone off."

"Then this thing... is it too much to bring?"

The villagers were discussing the matter privately.

Zhang Weiguo and others just focused on loading things into the car, as if they didn't see them.

One by one, none of them are good.

During the years he was away, the village chief also took some care of his family.

Others, besides kicking you when you are down, laugh at you and look down on you.

He couldn't take revenge on everyone, but he could stay away from them.

"Bai Rong, are you moving your whole family?" Someone who was unwilling to give up came forward, his eyes rolling around.

"No, I'm just seeing them off!" Bai Rong pretended to be calm.

"That's right..." Just say it, how could the whole family move?

It seems that Bai Rong is not so lucky!

Maybe, during the years when her husband was missing, he had another woman outside!

Thinking of this, she felt happy.

The expression of gloating could not be hidden.

Even the look in his eyes when he looked at Bai Rong showed a hint of pity.

Bai Rong didn't pay any attention to her at all and was only busy loading luggage into the car.

The car drove away under the gaze of a group of people.

"Let's go home!"

"I thought Bai Rong and her family were moving away!"

"Why did that brother and sister get in the car too?"

"They usually have a good relationship, maybe they are taking advantage of the car!"

"Let's go!"

After a while, the crowd in front of Zhang's house dispersed.

The surroundings became quiet again.

…..

At the entrance of the village...

"Brother Dawen, thank you for taking care of them over the years!" Zhang Weiguo held Zhang Wende's hand and expressed his sincere gratitude.

Knowing that they were leaving today, Zhang Wende waited for them alone under a big tree at the entrance of the village.

Just to send them off for the last time.

"Brother, this is what I deserve!" Zhang Wende felt a little ashamed when talking about this.

When it comes to household chores, he often feels powerless.

Not only was he unable to help, but he was also scolded by Yu Lanhua's family.

After talking for a while, it was getting late.

"Okay, be careful on the road!" Zhang Wende didn't keep them and urged them directly.

"Well, I'll come back when I have time!" Zhang Weiguo also knew that it was getting late, so he got into the car with his family.

Before leaving, he quietly put a letter into Zhang Wende's hand.

"Open it and take a look when you get home!" He said quietly in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Before Zhang Wende could react, the car had already driven away.

Leaving him alone, disheveled in the wind.

…..

"Are you thirsty? Would you like some water?"

Driving yourself is indeed much better than taking the train.

At least, there are not so many strangers in the car. They are all familiar people together, so it is comfortable to get along with each other and the safety factor is high.

Don't worry.

"Yeah!" Ruan Zilong sat next to his sister.

Next in order are Zhang Xinxin, Bai Rong, Zhang Sinian and Ma Dahe.

Zhang Weiguo sat in the passenger seat.

The space in the car is not big and it is a bit crowded.

But the windows can be rolled down and fresh air can come in at any time, which is much better than taking the train.

The car had been driving for more than two hours, and the surrounding scenery was slowly receding.

"Huh~ I've talked too much and my throat is dry!" Zhang Xinxin took out the water bottle he brought with him, opened it and took a sip.

"Would driving be faster than taking the train? It would probably take less time!"

Cars were a rarity in that era, unlike in later times when they were everywhere on the streets.

"Well! It took me two and a half days to get here. It should be faster than taking the train!" Xiao Li thought for a moment and interjected.

"Then...we can arrive the day after tomorrow!" Counting it up, it will take one afternoon this afternoon, one day tomorrow, one day the day after tomorrow, and we will arrive the day after tomorrow.

"Almost!" The co-pilot, Zhang Weiguo, was holding an old newspaper in his hand and reading it carefully.

The driver, Xiao Li, didn't drive the car too fast.

Moving at a roughly constant speed...

…..

Zhang Wende, holding the letter, felt like he had a fire in his arms.

I was curious and couldn't help but want to open it.

Hold on, you must hold on!

Weiguo just said that we should open it when we get home.

Along the way, the villagers greeted him, but he was a little absent-minded.

The pace is also much faster than before.

"This guy, there's no one chasing him, why is he running so fast?"

Shaking his head, the person talking to him was confused for a moment.

Maybe the village chief has something urgent to do.

He thought silently in his heart.

Zhang Wende didn't care what others said. He felt as uncomfortable as if he was being scratched by a cat.

I have to go back and see what is written in it.

"Hey, old man, what are you doing? You don't even look at people when you walk. Do you want to hit me to death?" As soon as he entered the door, he had close contact with his wife.

"Are you okay? Let's go inside and talk!" Zhang Wende looked her up and down, and was relieved to see that his wife was not injured.

"What's the matter? Why are you being so mysterious?" Su Juhua couldn't help asking when she saw how anxious he was.

"You'll know in a moment!" After saying that, he turned and walked towards the bedroom.

"I'm really convinced..." Su Juhua shook her head, helpless and could only follow.

In the house.

As soon as Zhang Wende came in, he opened the letter.

Su Juhua didn't know what the old man was up to, but that couldn't stop her curiosity.

She quickly went over and read the letter.

Upon seeing this, the couple's eyes widened.

"This...old man, is what is said above true?" Su Juhua didn't quite believe it.

Zhang Wende didn't say anything, but quickly turned around, ran over to lock the door, and then spoke in a low voice.

"This is the letter Weiguo left behind before he left. What's written in it must be true!"

Su Juhua was quite familiar with Zhang Weiguo.

Never lie.

And judging by his character, this is absolutely true.
