Qin Wei looked at Qin Zhiheng and Yu You.
"Your eldest sister hasn't written to you in two months. After you finish your meal, go to the city and send a telegram to your eldest sister."
Yu You felt that after sending the telegram, he didn't know whether he would receive a response.
"It's better to see it with your own eyes. Since this is the situation in Kyoto, why don't we take advantage of the winter break and have Zhiheng go and deliver some food to Big Sister?"
Qin Wei was a little embarrassed: "But we need a letter of introduction to go anywhere far away. With our family background, will the village issue one?"
Wang Yuerong suddenly stood up straight.
"Xiaoyou, Mom knows you have your own ideas. If Zhiheng goes alone, the villagers might be worried."
"But you were born and raised here. Why don't you two go together? The village won't make things difficult for you."
There was a pleading look in the mother-in-law's eyes, and Yu You was a little moved.
Wang Yuerong continued, "Your eldest sister is a soft-hearted person who only knows how to suffer losses. Mom is really worried about her."
"Besides, her husband's family is all from the countryside, not registered in Kyoto. Even after moving to the city, they don't have any food supplies. Life there is so difficult no matter how you think about it."
So that means marrying a Phoenix man?
Yu You thought about the family dynamics of some of the most typical Phoenix Men in modern times, and suddenly felt a surge of righteousness. He nodded and agreed.
Qin Zhiheng went to get a letter of introduction and buy a train ticket, while Yu You went to her parents' house to make arrangements.
"Youyou, from what you said, your sister-in-law should be like your sister, a sincere child. Mom said that the sudden stop of letters is not a good thing."
"You can't even afford the stamps to send a letter, right? These days, anything can happen. You might as well go and see for yourself."
Cao Xiu said this, taking out the money she had saved recently and giving it to her daughter. "Poor at home, rich on the road, so bring more money for self-defense."
"Thank you, Mom!" Yu You put the money in his pocket, making sure it was secure, and then continued, "Of course, that's why I said I'd go check it out."
Yu Weimin instructed his daughter, "When you get there, find a guesthouse to stay in first and see what the situation is like at your sister-in-law's house."
"Hey, Dad, I'll listen to you."
Yu You packed ten pounds each of cornmeal, white flour, and rice, two bags of dried noodles, three pounds each of brown sugar and white sugar, and two strips of pork belly.
These things are enough for my sister-in-law's family to have a good New Year. Any more would arouse suspicion.
The Xiangyang Commune where they were staying was six hundred miles from Kyoto. Qin Zhiheng and Yu You first took a bus to the county seat and then took a train to the city.
After all the hard work, we can get there in one day and one night.
The food on the train was expensive and unpalatable. Before setting off, Yu You specially baked ten steamed buns the size of face plates, stuffed them with pickles and fried pork, as rations for the two of them on the road.
Qin Zhiheng carried food, and Yu You carried a water bottle and leavened bread. By the time they squeezed onto the train with great difficulty and sat down, it was already noon.
They bought seats and sat next to each other, facing a woman with a fat boy.
Yu You took out the pancakes, gave one to Qin Zhiheng and kept one for himself.
The boy opposite has been staring at her since she took out the pancake.
Yu You took a bite, and the boy opposite suddenly started to make a scene, punching and kicking the woman: "Mom, I want to eat the white flour cake, I want to eat the one in her hand."
This child is so rude and not as cute as her An An and Ning Ning.
Sympathy is not so prevalent these days. Yu You turned sideways and continued eating the pancake.
The woman looked at the person opposite her and said with a frown.
"You're such a grown-up, yet you're bullying even children. You're just trying to get a bite to eat, how stingy!"
Yu You remained silent and continued to eat his pancake. This simple version of roujiamo tasted quite good.
The person on the other side was ignored and became even more angry. Smelling the meat, he swallowed his saliva and said sarcastically.
"He's dressed in rags, and you can tell at first glance that he's a country bumpkin who's come to Beijing. He's never seen anything good, and yet he's treating his two mouths of food so preciously."
Yu You was angry: "Sister, you are so generous. How about lending me the watch on your wrist for a few days? You are a city person, so you are not more stingy than us villagers, right?"
The woman clutched her watch tightly, choking and unable to speak.
This was bought with a watch ticket and 130 yuan, which cost their family a lot of their savings.
"Mom, I want to eat. If you don't give me any, I'll go back and tell my dad to beat you."
"Hey, my little ancestor, there is food on the train. Mom will buy you something else to eat."
"I don't want it, I don't want it, I want this!"
Yu You stuffed his mouth wider and wider, until his entire mouth was bulging, which Qin Zhiheng found very amusing.
The pancake was too big, and she was full, but there was still half left. She wanted to save it for the next meal, but Qin Zhiheng reached out and took it.
"Youyou, no need to put it down, I'll eat it." After saying that, he started eating.
Yu You...
Here it comes again. He no longer calls her wife "wife", but why does the word "Youyou" have an unknown flavor when it comes out of his mouth?
Moreover, he ate the leftover bread from me. Does that count as an indirect kiss?
The child opposite saw that the biscuit was about to be eaten and started crying.
Qin Zhiheng looked over with a cold gaze, and the child instantly stopped making trouble and became quieter.
In the noisy carriage, Qin Zhiheng's gaze seemed to be fixed on Yu You. Yu You felt uncomfortable being stared at and would glare back every once in a while.
The four-hour drive was spent with the two of them staring at each other in silence.
It was getting dark, so the two of them took the letter of introduction and found a guesthouse to stay in.
There was only a double bed and a quilt in the room. The quilt was big enough for one person to cover half of it. After Yu You washed up, he went straight in.
The next second, Qin Zhiheng pulled Yu You into his arms. They fit tightly together, unable to move.
Yu You was stunned for a moment, her head resting on Qin Zhiheng's chest. She moved her head, trying to look up, but her soft lips brushed against his hard chest.
They both froze. Yu You tried his best to ignore the heat on his face.
He raised his voice and asked, "Qin Zhiheng, you are not wearing any clothes?"
Qin Zhiheng usually sleeps in his underwear, what happened today?
"It's uncomfortable, take it off."
"You, let go first." Yu You tried to put some distance between them.
"Don't move." Qin Zhiheng said with restraint, "Don't move, don't forget that I am a man."
Yu You swallowed, thinking of the passionate kiss yesterday, and didn't dare to move.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time. After calming down, Yu You was so sleepy after sitting in the car for a whole day that he fell asleep.
After the woman in his arms fell asleep, she let go of all her guard. With her body soft and cuddled in his arms, Qin Zhiheng felt an unprecedented satisfaction.
He gently placed a kiss on the woman's lips and fell asleep.
The next morning, Yu You woke up first and found himself, as expected, lying in Qin Zhiheng's arms again.
Qin Zhiheng had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and was strong and muscular. Yu You stole glances at him again and again.
