Parting is a normal part of life.
The reunion was an accident.
Finally, the day came for Su Qing and his group to leave the water village.
The things that could not be taken away and were not used had been distributed to Aunt Xiulan and others.
Today's Su family is just an empty shell, without a peaceful soul.
Stepping on the morning dew, the bicycle quietly left home.
"Brother, sister-in-law, let's just leave the bicycles and tricycles here. My friend will help us send them to the capital."
Making friends out of nothing.
After finding an excuse, Cheng Fangyi put the means of transportation that he couldn't take away into the space.
After taking a train for several days and nights, I finally arrived in Beijing.
"Um... Cheng Fangyi, did you tell Mom and the others when we'll be back?"
People left and right at the station in waves.
I still haven’t found the figures I’ve been thinking about day and night.
"Yes, I did. I called, telegraphed, and wrote."
I have used all the communication tools available in this era.
"Then...where are the people?"
Not everyone should come to greet them, but at least someone should come!
"I don't know. I'll call and ask."
I found a phone booth, paid the money, and dialed the number I knew by heart.
"How's it going?"
“No one answered.”
"But today is Saturday."
There's no reason why everyone isn't home.
"I'll fight another one."
"Still no one answered."
After a while, Su Qing gradually accepted the fact that he and his group had been forgotten.
"Forget it, Mom, let's go back by ourselves. I'm too tired."
Xiaowu no longer cared about image management and sat on the ground.
From time to time, he would use the corner of his clothes to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead.
This day is really hot.
Su Qing lowered his head and smelled his own sour smell.
"Ugh... Never mind. There are so many three-wheeled motorcycles at the door. Just take one."
Now she just wanted to go home quickly, take a good shower and have a good sleep.
On the other side...
Su's mother and others were busy as hell.
"This is from Guangzhou. Look at the style. It's the latest. Look, it really suits your skin tone."
Su's mother tried her best to sell her own clothes to the woman in front of her.
It turned out that after hearing the news that private business was allowed, Daya and her companions immediately started making clothes.
As soon as the official regulations were promulgated, stalls on the streets with the heaviest traffic immediately occupied the market.
I set up a stall on weekends before the holidays.
It's summer vacation now. I set up the stall at 11 am and close it at 10 pm.
It’s not that business is bad, but that the supply of goods is sufficient for several people.
There are often long queues during lunch breaks and rush hours.
The stall opposite also belongs to the Su family.
Su Qianshan and Su Qianfan are in charge.
In the morning, I buy steamed buns, steamed buns and roujiamo; at noon, I sell cold skin, cold noodles and braised meat; in the evening, I sell ice jelly and jelly.
Xiao Yuanxu came over to help after get off work and had a meal.
Although they are busy and tired every day, no one complains about the considerable income.
"Well...it looks good, but it's a bit too expensive."
A shirt costs only eight yuan, which is equivalent to half a month's salary.
The woman was a little reluctant.
"This price is already very affordable. How about this, if you buy it, I'll give you a pair of socks."
When the woman heard that there were gifts, her eyes sparkled.
"Okay, wrap it up for me."
"Okay, I'll take eight dollars from you. Take your things and welcome to come again next time."
As soon as we saw off the guests, someone over there kept urging us to pay the bill.
After getting through the rush hour after get off work, Su's mother breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qianshan, make me some cold noodles. Add more vinegar and meat. I'm starving."
"Milky, it's all sold out."
"Is there nothing left?"
Mother Su ran to the stall in disbelief, looked at the empty basins, and murmured, "It seems that there is no shortage of rich people in every era."
Looking at the purchasing power, it’s awesome——
"They're all gone, grandma. Wait a moment. I'll let Qianfan take them."
"That's fine."
Su's mother returned to the clothing stall very depressed.
Because of hunger, even the shouting became much quieter.
Mother and daughter are of one mind.
Su Qing was also depressed.
Not only did I not see anyone at the train station, but after many twists and turns, I was even turned away when I got home.
"Is anyone home?"
"Mom, Heiye, Daya, Qianshan, someone is coming."
"Grandma, it's Xiaowu who's back."
"Open the door, open the door, open the door, grandma, I know you are in there."
However, what responded to them was a closed door and the inquiring gazes of passers-by.
"Wife, wait a minute, I'll call Lao Lu."
Cheng Fangyi trotted to the street office and paid double the price to stop the staff who were about to leave work.
"Hello, who is this? Tell me what's going on."
Lu Shu's irritable voice came from the receiver.
"It's me, Lao Cheng. Are you free now? Can you bring me the spare key to my courtyard house?"
It was Lu Shu who was responsible for the renovation of the courtyard house, so a spare key was left to Lu Shu.
"You're back in the capital?"
"Yeah, but there's no one home, no way in."
Cheng Fangyi frowned and touched the tip of his nose.
I never expected that there would be no way in.
"Wait."
Lu Shu was mumbling something to someone on the other end of the phone, and then the sound of hanging up was heard.
After paying the money, Cheng Fangyi went back to the door and waited.
The road book came quickly.
"Old Cheng, your room is here. Big brother and sister-in-law's room is in the next yard. This is Si Ya, right? Your room is here. These two are Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu's. Okay, I won't tell you anymore. They're still waiting to set up their stall over there."
After saying that, Lu Shu left like a gust of wind.
After taking a bath and eating, Su Qing and his group lay down on the bed and dreamed of the Zhougong.
"Oh, that's not right. Someone has been in our house," Qian Fan said, looking at the pillows that had been moved on the sofa.
When he came back to get something in the afternoon, the pillow was lying flat, but now it has been stood up.
But everyone is at the stall tonight and no one comes back.
So it was probably robbed.
The more Su Qianfan thought about it, the more he felt so.
"Xiao Yuanxu, your house might have been robbed. Call your colleagues at the office."
Su Qianfan lowered his voice, fearing that he would make noise and disturb the thieves.
"You thief," Cheng Fangyi replied unhappily after being woken up.
For fear of disturbing Su Qing in the room, Cheng Fangyi closed the door.
"Go, let's talk in the yard."
"Uncle, why are you here? Where are my aunt, my parents and the others?"
"How dare you say that? Didn't I tell you on the phone when we'd be back? And yet, not only did no one go to the station to pick us up, but the gate was also locked. If it weren't for your Uncle Lu, we'd still be squatting at the door."
"Uncle, I'm sorry, I forgot."
I forgot to tell you all.
Su Qianfan apologized with an apologetic look on his face.
"And what about those letters and telegrams I wrote? Surely they haven't been seen?"
"Dad, are you talking about these things?"
Daya giggled and took out a stack of unopened letters from the bamboo basket behind the door.
Everyone was stunned.
