Chapter 12 Pick Up



After Lu Qingyan finished her meal, she was pulled into the house by her mother and given a lot of instructions.

Finally, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and said, "This is the money your father and I gave you. Keep it. If Mingze treats you badly, come home and let your mother support you."

"Okay." Lu Qingyan heard this, leaned on her mother's shoulder with moist eyes, nodded and said

"Mom has spoiled you too much. I'm afraid Mingze will despise you after you go with the army." Mother Lu stroked her daughter's hair and sighed.

"Mom, you underestimate your daughter too much. If she dares to dislike me, I will divorce her directly and find you a son-in-law who is better than him." Lu Qingyan said with her eyes wide open.

"Don't talk nonsense. Don't say that again. If others hear you, they will laugh at you." When Mother Lu heard this, she gently patted her daughter on the back and said with a sullen face.

"Okay, I won't tell you, I won't tell you." Lu Qingyan smiled and stuffed the money into her mother's pocket and said, "I have money here, you don't have to give me any more. When I need money, you can give it to me."

"Okay, I'll save it for you." Mother Lu thought for a moment and then got up and went back to the house.

Lu Qingyan closed the door, wiped her eyes, and lay on the kang, thinking, if Gu Mingze really dared to forget his promise to her, she would not call herself Lu Qingyan until she made that house a mess.

The next day, Lu Qingyan played with her nephews for the whole day, and it soon got dark.

At night, Lu's mother came with bedding and pillows to sleep with her daughter. The two talked for half the night. In the morning, before dawn, Lu's mother got up to prepare dry food for her daughter to eat on the train.

When Lu Qingyan was woken up by her mother, she yawned as she put on her clothes. She also reorganized the things she had packed in advance to make sure that she had not left anything behind before going out to wash up.

Seeing her daughter eating slowly, Mother Lu couldn't help but urge her: "Eat quickly, your elder brother will take you to the county soon, and you have to go to work when you come back."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingyan quickened his pace to finish his meal, and under the reluctant gazes of his parents and two nephews, he took the letter of introduction written by his father and went to the commune on a ox cart.

Then he found someone to pay the money, left the ox cart with the person who was watching the carts, and got on a passenger bus that smelled of diesel and arrived at the county with difficulty.

"Brother, you go back. I'll be on the train soon." Lu Qingyan and her partner arrived at the train station, took the letter of introduction to the ticket office to get the ticket, and said to Brother Lu, who looked embarrassed.

"Okay, you should be careful and write to your family when you get there." Brother Lu nodded at his younger sister, walked out of the train station, and breathed a sigh of relief.

After going to the bus station and taking a bus back to the commune, he sent a telegram to the military region and drove a ox cart back to the brigade.

Lu Qingyan watched the train pull into the station, carried two small bags and got on the train. After finding the berth, she put her things down and hurriedly took the enamel jug to fill it with water to avoid being unable to squeeze through due to the large crowds.

After coming back with the water, Lu Qingyan sat on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, sleeper tickets were hard to buy now, and there were basically no seats available, so she could have some peace and quiet.

After receiving the telegram, Gu Mingze tidied the house after get off work in the evening, cooked porridge on the coal stove, boiled eggs and simmered them on the remaining fire, and drove to the train station to pick up people.

Lu Qingyan was woken up by the conductor in the middle of the night. She went to the toilet, cleaned herself up, and waited for the train to arrive before getting off the train carrying two bags.

At first glance, apart from the people's heads, it was pitch black. I couldn't help but feel a little scared. I quickly hugged my two bundles and walked out slowly with the crowd.

Gu Mingze was behind, looking at his trembling wife, hugged her distressedly and said: "Wife, don't be afraid, I'm here."
