Last time, Pei Yan asked Mr. Gao for help in finding the human traffickers hiding in An County.
Mr. Gao has many subordinates and is always well-informed. In order to find the person as quickly as possible, Pei Yan agreed to Mr. Gao's conditions.
The reason he was away for such a long time this time was because Mr. Gao needed him to help transport a batch of goods.
Mr. Gao took a fancy to Pei Yan. Although Pei Yan was young, he had extraordinary skills and a ruthless spirit. He always fought to the death.
A year ago, Pei Yan saved Mr. Gao who was being hunted by his enemies by chance.
Mr. Gao admired this man of his age and thought he had great potential. He wanted to see how far he could go, so he let him manage part of the black market in An County.
In this era, those who can survive in the black market are all tough guys who are not easy to mess with, so naturally no one will accept the management that is parachuted in.
It was Pei Yan, whom they looked down upon, who brought this group of people into obedience.
In order to live up to Mr. Gao's expectations, Mr. Gao announced that this was his savior, and if anyone was not convinced, they could come and talk to him.
Mr. Gao is a cruel and ruthless person. Even if someone is still unwilling to accept it, they can only hold it in.
At least, he didn't dare to go against Pei Yan openly.
Although Pei Yan took over the black market, he only promised Mr. Gao that he would only manage the black market and not participate in anything else.
Mr. Gao was a fairly open-minded person. Not only did he agree to Pei Yan's request, he also refrained from interfering too much in his actions.
This time, the batch of goods in Mr. Gao's hands had to be sent to Rongcheng, and he couldn't go on a business trip, so he asked Pei Yan to go with the car to deliver it.
Pei Yan had a request, so naturally he couldn't be refused.
"So, you want me to go to your house and help you take care of Grandma Dong?"
"Yes! Grandma has a chronic backache and rarely goes out. I want you to go and talk to her. Be careful at night, I'm afraid she might fall."
"Does that mean I can live in your house? That's not good, I can't cook."
"Fang Yingzi will come to cook, so you can just help me look after grandma at my house for a while."
Pei Yan wanted to go alone this time, and Fang Hai wanted to go with him but was rejected by him.
Mr. Gao actually asked him to go, which meant the journey would definitely not be safe, and he couldn't take the risk of bringing Fang Hai with him.
He was just asked to continue watching over the county and find out what the purpose of the people who wanted to arrest him last time was.
He was specifically told to proceed secretly, not to act on his own, and to wait for him to come back.
Fang Hai was entrusted with an important task, so naturally he planned to stay in the county town for a long time.
Pei Yan was worried about his grandmother being alone at home, so out of selfish considerations, he asked Xu Zhiyi for help.
Xu Zhiyi did not refuse. She knew that no one would ask her for help easily unless it was absolutely necessary.
The two of them have been together for so long that they can be considered friends.
There's nothing wrong with doing this little favor.
As for whether the villagers would gossip, Pei Yan had already made plans.
He had already made an appointment with the village elder to go to the place where he was sent down to see his grandfather. The journey was long and took a long time. He was worried about his grandmother at home, so he asked Xu, an educated youth from the educated youth site, to help take care of her.
If you ask why it was her, it is naturally because she is extremely strong.
Pei Yan's home is relatively remote, so if Grandma Dong has any inconvenience, Dali Xu Zhiqing can help.
The village chief was also convinced by this reason.
It is true that there are very few girls who are as strong as Xu Zhiyi.
Even the village chief was surprised that these educated youth from the city were so down-to-earth and willing to take care of the elderly.
As for whether Xu Zhiyi was reliable or not, he didn't consider it.
Pei Yan actually dared to invite her, which showed that he had some understanding of Xu Zhiyi.
The old fox village chief understood this, but he didn't know when the two had ever met.
Of course, the village chief would not gossip, and he also told his wife that if anyone in the village gossiped, she should tell others the reason.
Aunt Wang is now Xu Zhiyi's number one fan. If anyone in the village dares to say bad things about Xu Zhiyi, she will be the first one to not let him go.
Two days later.
While it was still early, Xu Zhiyi took her simply packed bag and went to Pei Yan's house.
Pei Yan heard a knock on the door and opened it to let Xu Zhiyi in.
After breakfast, Pei Yan was about to go on a long journey.
"Pei Yan, be careful when you go out and protect yourself." Xu Zhiyi cared about Pei Yan.
"When you're working hard, think more about the people waiting for you at home."
Pei Yan felt warm in his heart. They both understood each other tacitly. Xu Zhiyi had already guessed that since he had been away for such a long time, he must have done something dangerous.
"Okay, I will. I'll make you something delicious when I get back."
Pei Yan chuckled softly, feeling that he missed Xiangyang Village even before he left the house.
Xu Zhiyi had an inexplicable confidence in Pei Yan. This man was only staying in Xiangyang Village temporarily. As long as he was given the opportunity, he would be able to leave Xiangyang Village soon.
Pei Yan didn't know what Xu Zhiyi was thinking, and he left Xiangyang Village with reluctance in his heart.
Not long after he left, Grandma Dong got up.
She was old and slept less, so she woke up when Xu Zhiyi came.
But she didn't disturb their time together. Pei Yan told her last night that he was going on a long trip and Xu Zhiyi, who had come to their house for dinner last time, would come to take care of her.
She did not stop Pei Yan. She knew the hatred in Pei Yan's heart and the anger he was holding back. She could only let him go without worrying about it and worry about him secretly.
"Grandma Dong, you're awake! I'll serve you a bowl of porridge. Have breakfast first."
Xu Zhiyi quite liked the old lady's personality. Apart from being a little too enthusiastic, there was nothing wrong with her.
"Hey~ Zhiyi, I'm going to trouble you, old lady."
"I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, how could I come to cook for you?"
That's right! Pei Yan's excellent cooking skills were all taught by Grandma Dong. After Grandma Dong's illness became more serious, Pei Yan took over the cooking job.
Sometimes when Pei Yan is not at home, Fang Yingzi comes to cook for Grandma Dong.
Over time, Fang Yingzi naturally learned some of Grandma Dong's cooking skills. Although her cooking was not as good as Pei Yan's, it tasted good too.
Xu Zhiyi told the people at the educated youth site that he would not eat at the educated youth site for the time being, but would eat at the homes of his fellow villagers.
Pei Yan had originally wanted to bring some food with him, but he didn't let Xu Zhiyi bring it.
Before Pei Yan went on a long journey, he went home in advance to prepare a large bag of rice and flour, as well as several dried wild game and wild boar meat.
The fresh pork was cut the day before departure.
The next day, after waiting for Xu Zhiyi to get off work, Fang Yingzi had already prepared the dumpling filling and was waiting to roll out the dough and make the dumplings.
The three of them sat around the table, and Grandma Dong looked at the two little girls in front of her happily.
Fang Yingzi skillfully rolled out the dumpling skins with a rolling pin, while Grandma Dong wrapped the dumplings. The skins were thin and the fillings were large. The plump white dumplings looked delicious when they were put there.
Xu Zhiyi excitedly started making dumplings, imitating Grandma Dong's method. However, either the dumpling skins burst due to too much filling, or the dumplings turned out to be weird shapes.
This made Fang Yingzi laugh for a while, but Grandma Dong continued to teach happily.
The three of them are having a great time here.
Pei Yan, dozing off in the passenger seat, had no idea that danger was waiting for him ahead...
