33 Chapter Thirty-three
◎A small bag◎
Chapter 33
Next to the rose-red hill, there stood a very sharp-looking figure. Before he saw the village chief, he was looking around, as if he was looking for something.
The village chief's figure was blocked by the bag carried by the man. The two men looked around for a long time. It would have been fine if they were looking in the wrong direction, but they didn't even turn their heads after looking for a long time.
"What are you two looking at?"
The village chief didn't think twice and just walked up and slapped the rose-red bag.
The bag was heavy to begin with, and when he hit it like that, his second son, who had been carrying the bag with great effort, almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Hey, isn't it Wu Lao Er? I told him it was this car and asked him, 'This is the car Dad booked.' Let's get in first, but he didn't believe me and insisted on waiting here. I'll ask you when you get there."
Hearing the voice, the second son's wife turned around, saw the village chief, rolled her eyes at her husband, and then began to explain.
Hearing her words, the village chief was speechless.
"Even if it's not this car, what's the harm if you get in first?"
"Hey, isn't this causing trouble for others?"
The second son looked at his father's disappointed expression and felt a little embarrassed.
But he also knew that his father was behaving like this only because he hadn't seen him for a long time, so he looked so distressed. If he stayed at home for two more days, his father would probably find him annoying when he saw him.
"Okay, this is the car, get on."
The village chief was speechless when he saw his expression. He turned around and waved his hand, signaling him to get in the car quickly.
Turning and walking towards the car, the village chief stopped and chatted with the driver who was sitting in the car.
"Master Li, there are probably about ten people arriving today. You'll need to wait a little longer. I'll tell you their names later."
After the village chief finished speaking, he started editing on his mobile phone and sent the list to the driver.
"Okay, Village Chief Wu, I heard your village really doesn't want to move down here? People from higher up are saying that because the two villages to your side didn't move down, our mayor was criticized by those above. It would be great if we could move down here. It would be more convenient to go home, and we'd have new houses to live in."
The driver saw the village chief busy typing on his mobile phone, so he was not idle either, and started chatting with the village chief about what he wanted to know.
What people in the town are talking about most recently is probably the fact that the government has arranged for people from rural areas to move to the town.
Basically, everyone in the town who heard about this was very envious and kept wondering why such a good thing didn't happen to them.
Among the many people who are worthy of envy, the two villages of Daxi Village and Shangyou Village are contrary to their usual behavior and have no plans to go down the mountain, which makes people curious.
The driver was obviously curious as well. He hadn't been able to find out before, but now that he had met the village chief of Daxi Village, it should be okay for him to ask a few more questions, right?
Thinking of this, he asked the same question.
"I haven't heard of it. But the people living in our village now are all elderly people. They have lived here for so many years, how could they bear to move downstairs?"
The village chief listened to the driver's words, recalled the image of the mayor he had seen, and compared it with the image of the mayor described by the driver. He was sure that the driver was not the same person in his memory!
The mayor is really something. Calling him a fox is a compliment to him.
It's too troublesome.
"Okay, I've already sent you the list. Just ask for their names when they get here."
As the village chief spoke, he turned and motioned for his second son to come over and put the big bag on the car.
"I just saw your son. I asked him to come over and put the things in the car, but he refused."
After hearing what the village chief said, the driver looked down at his phone and said something casually.
In fact, he knew why people didn't park their cars here. They were afraid that they would ask him to take them away after they got on.
The old man in this family had already booked a car, but he still took another one. He would probably get beaten when he got home.
So even if he said it and had already agreed with Village Chief Wu, people still didn't believe it and insisted on waiting on their own.
"Excuse me, this kid is just like that. He suffered so much outside but still didn't learn his lesson. But now that he's home, he's learned his lesson."
When the village chief heard what the driver said, he smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go back first. You guys wait for me. When everyone else arrives, you can go back to the village together."
After the village chief finished speaking, he turned and left.
He still has to go back and ask people to clean up. These people are coming back today, and some of them don't have anyone at home to help clean up, so he must go and ask people to go back and help.
"Oh, okay, Dad, please go slower on the way."
Hearing his words, Wu Laoer, who had just put his bag in the car, turned around and gave his old father some advice.
He didn't even ask why his father didn't go back with them on the bus. His father still wanted to drive his three-wheeled motorcycle.
"Wife, let Dad take the things you have in your hand back home. It's just right to give them to the children in advance."
As Wu Laoer said this, he was about to take off the small bag his wife was carrying and hand it to his father, but was hit by his wife.
"It's better for you to take them back with you. If you see something that makes you angry, you can use these things to comfort the kid who got beaten up."
The village chief waved his hand, indicating that they should take it back themselves, as he was too lazy to take it.
He had to say that every time he went home, the couple would quarrel over the children and then make up.
When things are going well, they are like one person, but when they start arguing, I really want to get involved.
At first, he and his wife were afraid that something might happen, so they went up to try to stop them. Later, they realized that the two were just arguing, and after the argument, no one took it to heart. After a few times, the couple just stopped caring.
After the child was born, the two of them continued to quarrel, and at first they scared the newly sensible Momo.
When Momo grew up a little, the two of them still quarreled, but Momo was calm. When they were arguing, he would come over and offer a glass of water if he heard that one of them sounded wrong.
So now their relatives just treat the quarrels between them as fun. After all, it's not like any couple quarrels every day for ten years and ends up getting along better and better.
It’s just a pity that the two of them really won’t fight when they quarrel, but if the children make mistakes, Xiao Ling’er is okay, because they are more tolerant of girls, but Momo will really beat them.
Both husband and wife have hot tempers that can easily explode. If they are not careful this time when they go back, Momo will probably get spanked again.
It was because of this that the village chief did not bring their gifts for the children.
As for the second son’s wife not wanting the village chief to take the things back, it was simply because she didn’t want the village chief to be troubled by carrying the things.
Because the village chief had made it very clear when he asked them to return to Daxi Village that they probably would not leave Daxi Village in the short term, so he asked them to bring all the things outside back home.
This is also the reason why Wu Laoer carried such a big bag of packages.
Since the husband is carrying such heavy things, the wife certainly cannot go empty-handed.
Her bag doesn't look that big, but it is quite heavy.
Seeing that the village chief and his wife had the same intention, Wu Laoer gave up the temptation of taking one less bag and settled down.
"Okay, then Dad, you go back first, we'll wait here for the rest of the people."
Shortly after the village chief left, other people who wanted to return to Daxi Village began to arrive one after another.
Fortunately, considering the large number of people, the village chief found a large truck.
Although there are no seats, there is plenty of space to put things!
After putting their things down, they can choose to sit on the packages, leaving no empty space at all.
Also returning on the same day were Wu Laosan, the parents of Gangbi and the twins.
They didn't bring much stuff with them, so basically everything that could be handled by logistics was transported by logistics. The two of them just had to find time later to drive their father's three-wheeled motorcycle to transport the things back.
Because there is no road in Daxi Village, normal vehicles cannot go up the mountain directly, and they have to get off the car halfway and walk up the mountain.
Even the three-wheeled motorcycle driven by the village chief is a small one.
The first thing the village chief did when he returned to Daxi Village was to arrange for the remaining people in the village to pack up the homes of those who were going back to Daxi Village today.
This is the case in the village. Normally, when no one is at home, they will ask the people who stay in the village to help look after the house. If nothing else, at least if something happens at home they can go in and help clean up.
Just like if your house is damaged by rain or wind, or something seems wrong or there is a leak in the house, it is better to go in and help with something to block it than to let the rain in and damage the furniture.
As soon as he arrived at the village and arranged for people to clean up, the village chief saw Chu Xinran following Xiao Ling'er.
The other person was following Xiao Ling'er to help get things. She looked very well behaved. Who would have thought that this girl would often squat down and cover her head for no reason, and sometimes just scream.
Fortunately, her family didn't mind her condition. The children knew that she was not feeling well, and since she wanted to follow Xiao Ling'er, they let her follow.
He had promised to find someone to repair the girl's house before, but there were not many people in the village who could do it at that time, and the few people who had tried to repair it have not done it yet.
In addition, knowing that the girl was in poor condition, the village chief did not urge the repair, thinking that he would feel more at ease if he let her continue to stay at home.
Now that there are more people in the village and more people who can use their strength, the little girl probably won't agree with the previous speed of repairing the house.
At this time, Chu Xinran, who was being watched by the village chief, was holding a bundle and listening to a chattering voice inside the bundle.
She found this bundle when she was cleaning up a house in the village with Xiao Ling'er. At that time, she asked where the bundle was. Xiao Ling'er just turned her head to take a look and let her carry it away.
Then Chu Xinran heard the voice from the bundle.
Along the way, Chu Xinran didn't know what was in the bag, but she had already learned everything about its past through the voice's chattering.
The reason why Xiao Ling'er asked her to take it away was because the things might have been hidden by a friend she knew. Seeing that the person was about to come back, she wanted to take it away to prevent her parents from throwing it away when they came back.
At first she was confused. What could two little girls play with? Aren’t they just cute little things?
She also came here when she was a child, and can basically count them all.
Until she heard the voice in the bundle and began to reminisce how Xiao Ling'er and its little owner dug it out of the ground and made it appear on the ground again and breathe fresh air.
Nowadays, if something can be buried in the soil, dug out by children to play with, and then strictly stopped by parents and thrown away, how can it be a good thing?
When Chu Xinran heard this, she wanted to throw away what was in her arms.
But when she turned around and saw Xiao Ling'er, she gave up the idea in a timid manner.
The thing that Xiao Ling'er recognized at first sight must be something left behind by her very good friend, right?
