…
After the dinner, Uncle Zhang just happened to pick up Wenxia from Qi's house.
Huang Wenbin opened the car door with a smell of alcohol on his body, and Wen Xia, who was sitting in the back seat, pinched his nose and said with disgust:
"Hey, brother, you smell bad."
"You know shit. The wine we drank today wasn't cheap. Smell it carefully."
Huang Wenbin responded with a smile, deliberately opening his mouth and blowing lightly at Wenxia.
Wenxia immediately pretended to vomit and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Go away, go away. I'm going to faint."
Seeing this, Xu Mengyao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, interrupted their play.
"Brother, are you feeling bad? They aren't drunk, right? It won't affect our return home tomorrow."
Huang Wenbin turned around, patted his chest, and said confidently:
"This is just a small amount of wine. We didn't drink much. After two rounds of toasts, they were already drunk. Do all southerners have this much tolerance? When I was in the army, my northern comrades could drink two or three pounds of baijiu and as much beer as they wanted. Today, they just moistened their throats. The smell of alcohol will dissipate after a walk, and it won't delay their departure tomorrow morning."
"Ah? Are we going home tomorrow? I want to play for a few more days." Wenxia looked regretful.
Xu Mengyao pinched Wenxia's face and said, "We don't have time. We have things to deal with at home, and school is about to start for you. Come back next time we have a holiday. There will be plenty of opportunities."
At this time, Uncle Zhang interrupted, "Miss Wenjuan, the young master's driver will come early tomorrow morning to lead the way. He often travels back and forth on this road and is very familiar with the road conditions. With him leading the way this time, we can save a lot of time on the road."
"Okay, then we'll follow behind. Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Zhang. I'm afraid you'll have to go back and forth frequently in the future."
"You're welcome, Miss. This is my job."
...
The next morning,
Uncle Zhang had already bought breakfast for them when he arrived.
Xu Mengyao pulled Wenxia out of the bed.
"I've packed everything, just wash up and we'll be leaving."
Wenxia rubbed his sleepy eyes, reluctantly got up from the bed, and slowly walked to the bathroom. After washing up, the three siblings went to the meeting point together.
In the car market,
Xu Mengyao commanded the team.
"Brother, you are the first one, follow the Chen family's car, be careful."
Then he turned to the old master in the mine and said solemnly:
"Uncle, you have a lot of driving experience. Drive in the middle so that neither side will fall behind."
"Okay, don't worry." The old master nodded in agreement.
"Set off."
At Huang Wenbin's command, the black Mercedes-Benz took off, followed by the nine trucks. Seeing the convoy's orderly movements, Xu Mengyao felt relieved to get into the car.
Wenxia excitedly leaned out of the car window and watched the huge trucks slowly passing by in front of him, his face full of surprise.
"Second sister, these big guys are all from our family, right?"
"Yes, two of them were bought with your money." Xu Mengyao joked with a smile.
"Wow, I'm going to go back and tell Xinxin to take him for a truck ride next time!"
...
The journey was uneventful, the sun was high in the sky,
At noon, the ringing of the mobile phone broke the silence in the car.
"Ms. Huang, do you guys want to have a meal now? There is a county town not far ahead." The Chen family's driver asked over the phone.
"Okay, let's go over and eat. It's a good opportunity for everyone to take a break and adjust." Xu Mengyao made a decisive decision.
The car ahead started flashing its hazard lights, and the convoy gradually slowed down, eventually pulling over to the side of the road. Uncle Zhang pulled up to the front and parked next to the Chen family's car.
More than a dozen cars were parked on the roadside, creating a spectacular scene. Occasionally, pedestrians passing by would stop and watch curiously.
Xu Mengyao asked worriedly, "Are we just going to stop on the main road?"
"Don't worry, miss. We will stay here to look after the car and things. You just go and have your meal." The Chen family's driver replied with a smile.
"That's not what I meant. I was wondering if parking our car here would hinder other cars from passing." Xu Mengyao explained.
"No, this road is quite wide. Even if it's a truck, it can pass." The driver explained patiently.
"Okay, let's go eat together."
However, Uncle Zhang waved his hand and said, "Miss Wenjuan, you guys go ahead. This big truck is most afraid of running into oil thieves. With so many of us, it's already very conspicuous. If no one is watching, the oil will definitely be stolen."
Xu Mengyao really has no experience in this area, so she can only say:
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. I'll eat faster and replace you later."
"Miss, just enjoy your meal and bring some back for us. It's not safe for a girl like you to stay here alone." Uncle Zhang reminded with concern.
Xu Mengyao had no choice but to give up and found a restaurant with her eldest brother and the others to sit down. After ordering the dishes, she asked for a roast chicken and braised pig's trotters, and asked her eldest brother to send them to Uncle Zhang and the others along with ten baked buns.
After lunch, the convoy took a short break and set off again.
The afternoon's itinerary went relatively smoothly. Except for Wenxia falling behind briefly while looking for a place to use the toilet, everything else was normal.
As the convoy approached Huancheng, the phone rang again.
"Ms. Huang, we're almost there. Please let Xiao Zhang drive ahead and lead the way. I'm not sure where so many trucks will park." The Chen family's driver said on the phone.
Xu Mengyao hung up the phone and began to worry. She had originally thought she could just park anywhere on the roadside, but thinking about the gas thieves Uncle Zhang mentioned, she decided to go home and talk to Huang's father about finding a safer place.
