"Tell them to change their itinerary. Some will go to Gangcheng, and some will go to Yangcheng. Tell this address to the brothers going to Yangcheng. Have them look for a young man named Lu, in his early thirties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses. You don't need to say anything, just tell him my name, and he'll understand."
Cheng Fangyi quickly wrote down an address in his notebook.
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
Cheng Fangyi tore off a page and wrote another one. "This address is for your family's settlement. You must keep it safe."
Qiangzi stuffed the jagged paper into his coat pocket and said, "Okay, boss, when are you leaving? I'll prepare your luggage for you."
"You don't need to prepare. We'll leave tomorrow."
Cheng Fangyi couldn't help it. He touched the cigarette box and picked up a cigarette skillfully and put it in his mouth.
Su Qing saw it but didn't say anything.
She knew that Cheng Fangyi was under a lot of pressure and needed a way to relieve it.
Besides, in the current situation, there is not much point in arguing with him about whether to smoke or not.
But Cheng Fangyi seemed to realize that Su Qing was still there, so he held the food in his mouth for a while and then put it back into his pocket.
Su Qing's heart suddenly felt warm.
"I'll just prepare some dry food for you, nothing else." Qiangzi knew that Cheng Fangyi's trip to the northwest should not be publicized.
"That's fine. Make more pancakes and steamed buns."
Many things are already in the space warehouse and are fresh, but they need some concealment to be displayed.
"Okay, I'll ask my wife to make it overnight and give it to you tomorrow morning." Qiangzi was finally not so depressed because he could help Cheng Fangyi.
"Let's do it tomorrow morning. My brother-in-law and his family won't arrive in the provincial capital until the afternoon. If we leave in the evening, we'll still have time to do it in the morning." Cheng Fangyi said.
"I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving now. You can put away the account book. By the way, if you can, please take leave for the children. Things are going to be a bit uneasy lately."
Cheng Fangyi left some words and left.
Su Qing trotted after him.
After walking for a distance, Cheng Fangyi suddenly stopped and walked quickly towards Su Qing behind him, "Wife, I'm sorry, I was too immersed in the things and didn't notice that you didn't catch up."
Cheng Fangyi looked at Su Qing with guilt.
"It's okay, I can catch up with you even if I walk faster."
"Don't rush. There's no rush. Let's go to Tang Ci's house first. The child will stay at his house when he comes."
This is the result of Cheng Fangyi's careful consideration.
If time had been available, he would have sent the child to the capital before heading to the northwest.
Tang Meilan's home
"Really? Sister Si Ya is coming to live with me. Yeah, that's great." Tang Zimei jumped up excitedly.
"Brother Xiaowu and Brother Xiaoliu are here too. That's great. I don't have to play house with girls anymore. I can play the game of fighting the Japanese with my brothers." Tang Zijun shouted.
"Alright, alright, stop yelling here and go clean up your room. It's so messy, or your brothers and sisters won't want to live with you."
Tang Meilan drove the two children away.
A while~
Tang Meilan said, "Okay, the child is no longer here. You can tell me the truth, what happened? Is it serious? Is his life in danger?"
Cheng Fangyi and Su Qing looked at each other.
Su Qing spoke nervously, "Meilan, you should have some idea of what I'm doing with my man."
Before she could finish her words, Tang Meilan jumped up and said, "What do you mean, you've been caught and are being taken away? Wait, Tang Ci has comrades in the police station. Even if it costs Tang Ci his reputation, I will protect you."
Tang Meilan stamped her feet in anxiety.
Su Qing was both amused and annoyed. "No, he wasn't caught, but I can't guarantee that. Let me put it this way, I have some matters to deal with far away, and the child will be staying with you for a long time."
"It's no big deal, you're so flustered, it makes me nervous too." Tang Meilan wiped the sweat from her forehead. "When will the child come? Is there an adult to accompany him? I'll go to the station to pick him up."
"Come tomorrow. My brother and sister-in-law will accompany you. Cheng Fangyi and I will go to pick you up. After we pick you up, I will come to your house for dinner. You are not allowed to chase me away." Su Qing said.
His hands, slightly calloused, held Tang Meilan's arms and shook them continuously.
"What about you? When are you leaving? I'll go see you off."
"I'm leaving tomorrow night." Su Qing was very reluctant. "You don't have to see me off. Just help me take care of the child. Meilan, you should be careful too. Don't get too close to me during this period. If you see me on the street, pretend not to know me. Cheng Fangyi and I will choose a time when no one is around before we come."
There is no limit to the evildoers.
Not many people know about her relationship with Tang Meilan's family, but one still has to be careful.
"Is it that serious? Xiaoqing, answer me honestly, is your life in danger?"
"There's none in the provincial capital, but I don't know about them outside. But you have to believe me, I'm not as weak as you think. We will definitely come back safely." Su Qing said honestly.
She had to prepare for the worst.
"Yes, everyone will be safe. Starting tomorrow, I will burn a bunch of incense every morning and evening to offer to the gods passing by, asking them to bless you with safety."
"Meilan, you don't think that I do that kind of work, what - um - it's just -" Su Qing stammered.
"No, you're wondering if I dislike you for being in the black market. I'm telling you, no, how could I dislike you? You're more like a worshipper than anything else. You don't know how many people are desperately trying to find connections in the black market."
Especially during the years of famine.
Countless people died of starvation.
