"Cha Cha... Cha Cha ~~" The green train slowly pulled into the station. People on the platform quickly stood up or jumped up, looking around curiously.
Gu Yi had a bag hanging around his neck, and large and small bags in his left and right hands. He staggered out with the crowd.
He was a strong and sturdy man, and he had a lot of things on him, so many people had to give way to him.
Chen Xingling carried Xiaohuzi and walked behind him. Fortunately, they were blocked in front by the crowd so that the two of them would not be squeezed into a meat pie.
"Sister-in-law! The exit is right in front of me!"
"Hey! Let's go out first!"
After squeezing and shoving for a while, they only moved a dozen meters away.
His son was a big fat boy, and Chen Xingling’s strength in holding him was almost gone, but he didn’t dare to let go of him. His forehead was covered in sweat and he was breathing heavily.
Seeing that his mother was almost out of strength, the little one in her arms quickly stretched out his chubby hands to hug her neck, raised his cute chubby head and shouted.
"Don't come over here! Don't push! Don't push my mom! Don't push my mom!"
The people around heard someone shouting loudly, and they looked over one after another. They found that it was a very cute chubby boy, and they all started laughing.
Gu Yi in front of him took a difficult step and shouted, "Sister-in-law, you said your brother is coming to pick you up - where is he?"
"I don't know." Chen Xingling looked around: "I don't know which brother will come."
"Ah? Sister-in-law, how many brothers do you have?"
Before Chen Xingling could answer, he saw a man riding high on another man's shoulders, looking down from afar, and was stunned.
That is——? ?
Suddenly, the man happened to look over, took a closer look, and then widened his eyes in surprise.
"Little sister! Little sister! Haha! Little sister, there!"
Chen Xingling's eyes were immediately filled with tears: "Third brother! Brother 㩙! Third brother! Brother 㩙!"
Soon, Chen Bingxing jumped off Chen Wuxing's shoulders, and the two of them dived into the crowd. They swept their left and right hands to clear the way, and in a few moves they came to Chen Xingling's side.
What followed was a tearful reunion, warm hugs, and various excited and concerned questions.
Chen Xingling is tall and pretty, and her two brothers are also tall and thin, with the tan skin unique to people living by the sea. Their eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to hers, and they have almost identical big white teeth.
Chen Bingxing explained: "We guessed that you would arrive in the next two days, so on the fourth day of the New Year, we agreed to take turns to come to the train station to wait. The eldest and second brothers came in the morning, and we were in charge of the afternoon! We came yesterday! I didn't expect you to arrive on the afternoon of the seventh day!"
Chen Xingling laughed and wiped away the tears from her eyes, explaining, "We stopped several times on the way. The train was very slow. It should have taken two days and one night to get there, but it took a full three days to get to Yucheng."
Chen Wuxing exclaimed, "Hey!" and said, "The train is often late, but it's finally here! This is my little nephew, Xiaohuzi, right? Hey hey hey! Gu boy!"
Chen Xingling lifted his son high in his arms: "Come on! Call the uncles! This is 'Third Uncle', and the one without a beard over there is 'Uncle 㩙'!"
Little Tiger was not afraid of strangers and shouted with a smile: "Third uncle! Third uncle!"
Chen Bingxing picked up the little guy, gave him a kiss, and easily put him on the back of his neck.
"Let's go! Third Uncle will take you back to the fishing village!"
Chen Wuxing helped Gu Yi carry the clothes while looking at his sister.
"Little sister, why isn't your brother-in-law with you? Didn't you say you were going to come back together? Little sister, how did you become so skinny? Too thin!"
Chen Xingling had no choice but to tell them the news that Gu Qi was temporarily transferred to the sea. As for the reason why he was "shriveled", she chose to ignore it.
After leaving the train station, Chen Bingxing led them to a brand new tractor.
"Little sister, this was bought with our family's money last year. The fourth brother came back from sailing during the Mid-Autumn Festival with a lot of money. He paid the bulk of the money, and we put in some of the balance."
Chen Xingling's eyes sparkled as he asked, "Shared? That's great!"
"Yes!" Chen Wuxing nodded. "With this big fish, it will be much more convenient to sell fish in the city. We can also deliver fish and shrimp to more distant towns and make more money."
Gu Yi, who was standing by, was stunned and shocked.
Lao Qi always called his sister-in-law a "country fisherman's girl" or a "country woman". He also thought that his sister-in-law's hometown was a remote small fishing village by the sea, and her family must be very poor - he never expected that they could actually afford a walk-behind tractor!
As far as he knew, unless one was a wealthy family with an annual income of 10,000 yuan, no one could afford this thing!
Even if my sister-in-law's family is from a rural fishing village, they must be one of the richest families in the village!
Soon, everyone got on the tractor.
It was the first time for little Tiger to ride on a tractor. He jumped up and down with excitement and laughed heartily at the banging sounds.
Chen Xingling hurriedly pulled him to sit down.
Soon, the third brother got rid of the tractor, poured some cold water on the front of the tractor, and then started off with a rumble.
Gu Yi felt a little dizzy from the scorching sun in the south and was so hot that he took off his military coat.
"Sister-in-law, your winter is quite warm here! You don't usually wear a coat, right?"
Chen Xingling smiled and replied, "Of course, it is necessary, but the cold weather doesn't last long. It's usually cold for a few days, and then it warms up for a few days. The temperature difference between morning and evening is quite large. In the afternoon like this, it's very warm, but it will drop by ten degrees in the evening and night. You will need a cotton coat then."
Gu Yi, who came to the South for the first time, was extremely curious and looked around excitedly.
Chen Wuxing took out a few large coconuts from the snakeskin bag, smashed one open skillfully, put a piece of hay on it and handed it to his sister, and smashed another one for Gu Yi.
"These were shipped from the dock by ship. My family bought dozens of them to eat during the New Year. Dad was worried that you would be thirsty after getting off the bus, so he asked us to bring a few to quench your thirst."
"Thank you!" Chen Xingling's nose felt sore and he was deeply moved.
She took a few puffs to make sure the hay would not clog or bend before handing it to the little tiger beside her.
Gu Yi and Xiao Huzi drank the sweet coconut water, their faces and eyes full of excitement and curiosity.
Chen Wuxing held his sister's hand, asked her questions with concern, and then proudly introduced to her the changes in the fishing village and home over the years.
"Two years ago, overseas Chinese in the village sent money back to their hometown to build roads and bridges. Our village built a road directly to the next county town, and also built a road connecting to Chengnan Avenue in Yucheng. Now it is much more convenient to go into the city and go home!"
Gu Yi asked curiously: "Brother, your fishing village is in Yucheng, right?"
"Yes!" Chen Wuxing replied, "We are in the countryside of Yucheng, in the south of the city near the sea. The city center of Yucheng is a bit far from here, and it takes 40 minutes to drive a tractor there."
Gu Yi nodded and asked, "Is it far from my eldest brother's factory?"
"It's far!" Chen Wuxing introduced: "Their factory is next to the North River in the city, right on the edge of the river's estuary. It's more convenient to go there by boat, and it only takes half an hour to get there."
Gu Yi couldn't help but look at his sister-in-law and asked, "I wonder if my brother has arrived in Yucheng?"
"No rush." Chen Xingling replied with a smile: "Once we are settled, we will go to the shipyard to ask. We will know after asking!"
