Chapter 131 Stay

Cheng Rong added: "I want to call my family. They must be worried that something bad has happened since I've been away for so long."

"You can make phone calls at the commune, the place where we bought buns last time." Xia Zhizhi handed her the bicycle key and took out ten yuan.

Go, go, go and complain to your parents, and buy a ticket back tomorrow.

Seeing Cheng Rong riding away, Xia Zhizhi took out a mung bean popsicle made by Ah Ju and ate it happily while lying on the kang.

Cheng Rong is actually a very nice kid, but after she came, Xia Zhizhi's daily routine became just like going to work. Although the work wasn't busy, she had to punch in every morning and evening, which was really a headache.

Cheng Rong called her father's office. Her father was there and picked up the phone after only two rings.

This was the first time she had been away from home for such a long time. When she heard her father's voice, Cheng Rong couldn't hold back her tears and called out with deep emotion, "Dad!"

When Cheng Rong was a child, she always called her father Dada. Later, after she finished her studies and moved to Shanghai with her family, she didn't want to call him that anymore. When her father heard his daughter crying, he was so scared that he almost fell off his chair. In an instant, he thought of all the possible injuries that his daughter might suffer, and then he stood up so suddenly that he knocked over the chair.

Seeing that her father didn't say anything, Cheng Rong was a little confused and called out again, "Dad?"

Father Cheng took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "Dad is here. Where is Rongrong now? What's the situation? Talk to Dad."

On the afternoon of the day Xia Zhizhi called the couple, Cheng's father's guards took a train north. Whether his daughter was willing to come back or not was another matter, so he had to send someone to see if his daughter was safe.

The couple had fought in many counterattacks back then and had seen all kinds of situations. What Xia Zhizhi said was one thing, but you couldn't believe it completely without seeing it.

After hearing his daughter's crying, he decided to call the local police right after hanging up the phone.

Cheng Rong just wanted to act coquettishly, sniffed and said, "Dad, I'm in Xinglong Commune in Mudanjiang now. I'm sorry I was too willful before. Now I know you and mom are right. I really can't do the work in the countryside."

"If you've been wronged, tell dad. Don't be afraid, dad is here to help you with anything." Father Cheng comforted her.

"Feeling wronged?" Cheng Rong burped. "I'm not feeling wronged. I just suddenly realized this and missed you and mom so much that I called you."

"Tell dad in detail what happened there." Father Cheng was still worried.

Cheng Rong told him everything in detail. There were some points that Cheng's father found suspicious, so he asked several more times. Finally, he confirmed that Cheng Rong had just run to the northeast on impulse. Although she lost money and was frozen, it was a blessing in disguise. As long as she was fine, everything else was just a small matter.

Father Cheng heaved a sigh of relief: "I've asked Xiao Li to go to your place. He should be here in two days. You can come back with him then."

"No, no, no!" Cheng Rong refused again and again: "I want to play for a while longer, it's really fun here, and besides, I've been on the bus for so long, and I've only been here for a short time, and you want me to go back, I won't go!"

Cheng's father saw that persuasion was useless and was afraid that if he was too forceful she would suddenly rebel, so he could only agree to her request and let Xiao Li take a look to confirm the situation. He said, "It just so happens that your second brother will be on vacation soon. I'll let him pick you up and you can come back together."

After hanging up the phone and calculating the bill, Cheng Rong was dumbfounded. The operator said, "I have reminded you several times!"

Long-distance calls had to be transferred several times, and the money just flowed out like water.

Who would call me and talk on the phone for so long as if I were chatting with you?

Cheng Rong awkwardly took out ten yuan and took out the bicycle key: "Comrade, I'll leave the bike here and I'll get it for you when I get back, okay?"

The operator looked at the clock on the wall and said, "How long will it take? I'm going to be off work soon."

Cheng Rong pursed her face: "It will take two or three hours..."

The two of them stared at each other.

Fortunately, I met Lin Hongliang who came to the commune to do business.

Lin Hongliang still remembered Cheng Rong. The girl served dishes at his house all day yesterday. This green cotton jacket was easy to remember.

Cheng Rong embarrassedly told Lin Hongliang about this. Lin Hongliang knew that Xia Zhizhi had money and was not worried about not being able to pay it back, so he generously paid it first.

Cheng Rong returned to the educated youth center and hesitantly told Xia Zhizhi about her overpaid phone bill. Finally, she hurriedly made up for it: "Although I spent a lot of money on the phone, my father agreed to let me stay with you for a while!"

There is no big word.

This girl is very nice.

I could have just said: Not only did I cost you a lot of money to call you, but I also have to stay and torture you for a while!

But people took her feelings into consideration and deliberately used this euphemism.

Xia Zhizhi waved her hands, took out money and gave it to her to pay the debt.

In the evening, she rode Ah Ju to Du's house and picked out six or seven people to recite the precious book. Finally, she picked a poor guy who had not memorized it well.

He immediately turned hostile and used the method of collective punishment, took out the beating whip, and beat them until they cried for their parents, and only then did he calm down.

The weather is getting colder day by day.

Everyone is reluctant to go out unless they have something to do. There are two reasons why other members are reluctant to move. One is that they are not well equipped and it is cold to go out. The other is that they will get hungry easily if they move. It is best to lie in bed when they have nothing to do so that they can save some food.

Of course, Xia Zhizhi didn't have this concern. She didn't want to go out because she was lazy.

Cheng Rong has been living a good life since she started running the stall. Now that she has a new chef, their food intake has increased dramatically. Xia Zhizhi even gives her extra meals at night. She eats a lot every day and has enough oil, so she can have fun during the day.

Cheng Rong is a diligent girl. Although she didn't assign anything for Cheng Rong to do later, Cheng Rong has excellent self-management ability.

The child gets up at six o'clock every day, then goes to her room and knocks on the door to wake her up, then boils water for her to wash.

When there was no water in the water tank, she would go and fetch water. When she saw the villagers clearing snow from the village roads, she joined in.

The leaders of the commune were coming here to carry out work, and the team leader found a few members to help repair the commune auditorium, and she also went there to deliver nails.

She would also ask the children out to play. Cheng Rong was a generous and kind-hearted person. Every time she went out, she would grab a handful of candies that Xia Zhizhi had put in the frame as decorations and give them to the children. Everyone loved playing with her.

Lin Beibei and her friends don't go out to pick branches every day. After all, branches are not leaves, so it is impossible for them to fall down every day.

When they are not busy, a group of children will gather in Lin Beibei's house and have a recitation competition in full swing.

Cheng Rong was caught as a judge in a competition. After being brainwashed by the kids, she found out that Xia Zhizhi, who seemed to be in a low profile, was actually a big shot who was hiding her true colors!

Xia Zhizhi's box was filled with a huge pile of various books and newspapers. Even if they were sold as scraps, they would be worth a lot of money.

Although Cheng Rong stayed in her room every day, she never thought of flipping through the books. Cheng Rong thought that she bought them to read. After all, there were many newspapers and books in Cheng Rong's home, and Cheng Rong usually didn't like to read these.

I didn’t expect that they were all her own works!
