"Old man, where have you been? I was just about to look for you." A man came out of the room and spoke.
"I'm just taking a walk. Keeping people indoors all day would drive them crazy. Poor old man, it's like having no son at all. I can't find him all day long."
Mr. Gao had just been brought to An County because his illness had been recurring more and more frequently in the past two years.
Gao Zhan had no choice but to take him in and find someone nearby to take care of him.
At least he is free and can come back to see the old man.
The old man had been a soldier for decades, and when he finally retired, he fell ill. If he hadn't had someone watching him, his illness would have been very serious.
Gao Zhan was the youngest son of the Gao family. The eldest and second sons were both sacrificed.
This is the only one left.
Mr. Gao had been through many ups and downs, and the loss of his two sons was a deep blow to him, and his health became worse.
"Grandpa Gao is busy. He will definitely come back to see you tomorrow." Yuan Ye nodded at Xu Zhiyi, supported the old man and persuaded him.
"Humph, I've been here for so many days, and I've only seen you once. And you were in such a hurry, you didn't even have time to eat."
"If these two young comrades hadn't saved me today, I really wouldn't have been able to see you for the last time." Grandpa Gao had some dissatisfaction on his face and pretended to be angry.
"Oh, old man, don't talk nonsense. You will definitely live to be a hundred years old and live a long life." Yuan Ye said to the old man in a kind voice.
Suddenly a man ran in hurriedly.
"Brother Yuan, the old man is missing!"
"First..." Seeing a stranger, the young man straightened his back subconsciously.
Xu Zhiyi had sensitive ears and heard the first word the man shouted. Combined with the man's posture, Xu Zhiyi understood.
"Oh, I forgot. Xiao Wang, I'm sorry, I was sick and these two young comrades took me back."
Originally, Xiao Wang went with him, but he asked Xiao Wang to go shopping.
Who knew that he would fall ill before he had walked far?
"Grandpa, are you okay?" Xiao Wang's face was full of tension.
"It's okay, it's okay." Old Master Gao waved his hand.
"Pei Yan, do you know these two people?" Yuan Ye heard Xu Zhiyi's question.
This is just Ayan.
"Yeah." Pei Yan nodded.
"From the same village."
Yuan Ye couldn't believe that people from the same village could call each other so intimately. He wanted to ask something else.
"Why are you asking so many detailed questions? This is not an interrogation of a prisoner." Old Master Gao interrupted Yuan Ye in a loud voice.
"Okay, okay, okay. It's my fault. I won't ask anymore." Yuan Ye raised his hands, looking begging for mercy.
"Thank you, young comrades. Take these gifts back with you as a small token of my gratitude."
Old Master Gao spoke to Xu Zhiyi, lowering his loud voice and smiling kindly.
"No need, old man. It's just a simple thing. Even if we hadn't met you today, others would have helped."
Xu Zhiyi didn't even look at the gift given by the old man and directly refused it.
Xu Sheng stood aside and did not look around after entering the room. He looked like a well-behaved person who listened to his sister.
Old Master Gao liked this pair of siblings even more. Although he was old, he was still envious of other families’ lively reunions.
I just want to urge Gao Zhan to get married, but there's no chance at all.
"Take it, take it. My life is not as important as these. I don't like to eat these things. You can take them away." Old Master Gao was a man of his word.
To put it bluntly, he is a stubborn donkey.
They insisted that Xu Zhiyi take these gifts with her, otherwise they would not let them leave.
Seeing this, Yuan Ye quickly tried to smooth things over and persuaded Xu Zhiyi and the others to accept it.
"This thing is not rare for the old man. Just take it. Don't make the old man angry. He is not in good health."
Xu Zhiyi had no choice but to accept the petition.
After saying goodbye to the old man with these things, Xu Zhiyi and the other person headed towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
After Pei Yan said a few words to Yuan Ye, he also said goodbye to Mr. Gao and chased after him.
"Zhiyi, why are you in the city?"
"I came to the city to buy some cloth. I'd like to ask Grandma Dong to make a dress for my sister. She's getting married soon, so I'll give it to her as a wedding gift."
Xu Zhiyi explained why she came.
"Brother-in-law, my sister will go back with me then." Xu Sheng added silently from the side.
"Zhiyi, do you want to go back?" Pei Yan turned and looked at Xu Zhiyi.
"Yes, I'm leaving at the end of the month and will be back in ten days."
It takes so long. Pei Yan felt a little aggrieved that she didn't tell him in advance.
Pei Yan was silent.
"By the way, Ayan, please help me bring the gifts and bicycle to where you live. I'll come to you after I buy them."
I always feel that these things are inexplicably eye-catching, so I decided to let Pei Yan take them back.
Pei Yan, who hadn't had a good conversation with Xu Zhiyi for five days, felt even more upset.
"Brother-in-law, please go quickly. We'll go there after we finish shopping."
Pei Yan: "..."
Pei Yan just wanted to wait a little longer, because Xu Sheng had no foresight at all.
Pei Yan glanced at Xu Sheng, who shrank his neck, feeling a little cold.
Pei Yan pushed the bicycle and just left without riding it.
Xu Zhiyi inexplicably felt that his back was a little aggrieved...
When Xu Zhiyi arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, there were only a few types of fabrics, and they did sell red fabric, which was much more expensive than the others.
Xu Zhiyi asked the price and bought it without hesitation.
After buying it, I let Xu Sheng hold it. I also bought two telecom letters, a pound of brown sugar, and half a pound of White Rabbit milk candy.
Xu Zhiyi had almost used up all the tickets he had brought from home.
The ticket she needed was exchanged for the medicine she made.
Xu Zhiyi carried snacks and candies, and Xu Sheng followed behind with a piece of cloth.
The county train station was not far away, so after Xu Zhiyi and his companion arrived, they went straight to the ticket office.
"Hello, comrade. I'm looking for Tao Xiaohong."
The female ticket seller raised her head and looked at Xu Zhiyi.
"It's me. What do you want from me?" Tao Xiaohong thought of many people in her mind and made sure that she had never seen this person before.
After all, if you have seen such a beautiful lesbian, you will definitely be impressed.
"I'm Xu Zhiyi, a friend of Tao Aiguo. My name is Xu Zhiyi. Has he ever told you about me?"
Xu Zhiyi was a little hesitant. After all, it was her first time dealing with Tao Aiguo. What if that person was just being polite?
"Xu Zhiyi? Oh, I get it, you are the lesbian who beat up the human traffickers on the train!" Tao Xiaohong was a little excited.
She heard what her brother said when he came back. Just by listening to it, she felt that human traffickers were really hateful. At the same time, she also developed a good impression of Xu Zhiyi who bravely stood up for justice.
Before that, Tao Aiguo came back and asked her twice whether Xu Zhiyi had come to her to buy tickets.
"Yes." Xu Zhiyi nodded.
"My brother mentioned you and asked why you didn't come to me to buy the ticket."
