After dinner, the villagers inevitably gathered together and started gossiping.
"Hey, have you heard? It seems that He Chuantu has stopped farming. I heard that he went to the county town to learn how to drive?" A voice brought up the topic.
"That's incredible! Being able to drive is so prestigious. Isn't Liu Hu from the next village a tractor driver? The girls who want to marry him are lined up at the village entrance."
"You're driving a tractor, while He Chuan is learning to drive a truck, which is a tall and big truck that can be driven everywhere. It's much more prestigious than a tractor." Wang Fujia's wife said.
"Hey, Aunt Li, didn't your daughter fall in love with He Chuan before, and you refused to let her go? Are you regretting it now?"
Aunt Li, standing next to her, had a grimace on her face. She did feel a little regretful. If she had known He Chuan was so capable, she would have shown some interest in him. It was too late to say anything now. With Su Tao's appearance, even if she asked her daughter to have sex with him, He Chuan would definitely not be impressed.
She felt regretful, but she wouldn't admit it. "It's just learning to drive, not actually driving. Whether I can learn or not is still a question. I heard that learning to drive a truck is really hard."
Su Tao went to work as usual every day and had no time to pay attention to the gossip of these women.
The days without He Chuan were a bit lonely. She used to like He Chuan's big house, but now because there was one less person, Su Tao felt that the house was empty and deserted, just like her heart was empty.
Every day, he went to work and came home, mechanically repeating his daily work. After work, he would go home to cook for He Yanzhi. Without the backbone of the family, the little girl was a little scared to sleep alone at night. Su Tao moved in and slept with He Yanzhi these days.
Su Tao counted the days until He Chuan came every day. Today was the fourth day since He Chuan left. When he thought that he would see He Chuan in one day, Su Tao couldn't help but feel excited.
Sister Jiang, who was standing by, looked at Su Tao with tears in his eyes, staring straight ahead, grinning at the air, and couldn't help but teasing, "Are you thinking about He Chuan?"
Su Tao's thoughts were interrupted. When she came to her senses, she saw Sister Jiang looking at her playfully. Her face flushed slightly and she replied in a low voice, "Yeah."
"You seem listless these days and you don't feel motivated to do anything. Are you worried about He Chuan?" Sister Jiang asked as if she was an experienced person.
"Well, I don't know how he is doing in his studies? Is it difficult? Does he have enough to eat? How do the master and co-workers treat him? Do they exclude him?" Su Tao murmured dejectedly.
A sudden laugh rang out, and Sister Jiang covered her mouth and laughed, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. Those who know the situation will know that He Chuan just went to learn how to drive, but those who don't know will think that He Chuan went to some dangerous place."
"If you ask me, a man should exercise. Only through the baptism of sweat can a man grow." Sister Jiang said confidently, as if she believed me.
Su Tao only found out about Sister Jiang, the captain's wife, after arriving here. He had been at her parents' home when he'd delivered the wine, so he hadn't seen her. He must have experienced a lot in his youth to achieve his accomplishments; not everyone could become a captain.
Sister Jiang's advice eased Su Tao's worries for a few minutes. He smiled and said, "Well, I believe in him, I always believe that he will succeed."
