Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

This place is so remote that it will not be easy to go to the commune to buy things in the future. It seems that I will have to find a way to get a bicycle after some time.

They hadn't seen any families for a long time, and there was no one else on the road except them. Suddenly, a car came from the distance.

As long as Fan Dayong knew that it was Ouyang who came, he would be the one who drove to the team frequently during this period.

The educated youth were also full of curiosity about the approaching car. In this remote area, they didn't see a single person on the road except them, and they didn't know where this big car came from.

There were also a few people who couldn't help but have a faint hope in their hearts. It would be great if this car could give them a ride. Although they knew it was impossible, it was still good to think about it.

Until the car got closer and closer and stopped beside them, a young man in military uniform with a tall figure and clear facial features got out of the car.

The Ouyang Qing sisters immediately recognized the person who got off the car. They looked at him in surprise and shouted in unison: "Big Brother (Third Brother)."

Their voices were not small, and the other educated youth who were traveling with them could hear them clearly. Alas, there was nothing left but envy. As the two sisters walked forward, they did not forget to hold Xiang Xiaoqing's hand.

During these few days on the train, they established a particularly deep revolutionary friendship, and their relationship was even better than when they were at home.

He got off the car and first glanced at where Ouyang Qing and the others were, then said to the captain on the oxcart and Fan Daguo who was driving the oxcart: "Uncle~you and Uncle Daguo have worked hard, I will take the people away first."

Fan Dayong and the other man also nodded. Ouyang Qing ran over excitedly, smiling brightly: "Brother, why are you here today? Xiaoqing, this is my brother. From now on, you can call him the same as us, okay?"

"Third brother~" Ouyang Bo was a little surprised. This time, Ouyang Yan called him louder than usual. His cousin's personality was not like this before. But it's okay this way. Girls should be more lively.

"Brother Ouyang, hello, my name is Xiang Xiaoqing, and I'm Qingqing's classmate. Thank you very much for your help during this period."

"Hello, Comrade Xiang." Ouyang Qing couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he watched this scene. There was a reason why his elder brother didn't have a girlfriend. With his businesslike demeanor, which girl could be attracted to him?

"Hurry up and take down your packages. Let's go back first and don't delay on the road." Gu Yueze in the car saw Ouyang Qing standing in the crowd at a glance. He really was the one he liked.

Originally, Ouyang didn't agree to let him come along today, but there was nothing he could do as the package was too big to fit in one car. The other brothers had already informed each other and claimed they had something to do and refused to take Ouyang with them.

In the end, Ouyang had no choice but to let himself go on this trip. They had just completed a small mission, so it delayed them a little.

Even so, they still took a shortcut to get here. After delivering the items, they hurried over to pick them up. Seeing that several people were already rummaging through the packages, Gu Yueze quickly turned the car around and parked it.

After thanking the captains, they got on the bus amid the envious eyes of the crowd. The bus drove away quickly. "Don't stand there, hurry up and walk. Do you want to go back and rest? There is an empty seat for the two female comrades. You two can get on first and take turns to rest."

Although everyone's feet were hurting, the team leader also said that the female comrades' taking turns to rest had nothing to do with them, so they could only accept their fate and move forward.

After getting in the car, Ouyang Qing looked at his eldest brother, meaning who this person was. Ouyang Bo introduced him casually, "Qingqing, Yanyan, Comrade Xiang, this is my comrade Gu Yueze, who helped deliver the package today."

And then... that was it. In order to ease the awkwardness, Ouyang Qing hurriedly said, "Brother Gu, thank you for your help." The remaining two also followed Ouyang Qing's example and thanked Gu Yueze.

My friends are not helpful, so I have to do it myself.

"Hello, young comrades. This is just a trivial matter. Ouyang and I have been friends for many years. By the way, Comrade Ouyang Qing, I often hear your elder brother praise you for being smart and capable.

Last time I was near your house, I realized that what your elder brother said was true. You are indeed very good. It’s just that we were all in a hurry to come back to hand in the task, so we didn’t have the chance to meet. Today, we finally got to know each other.”

Ouyang Qing understood from the words that this person was one of the people who got in the car with his eldest brother to rescue his family, and was about to say something else.

"Qingqing, this road is not easy to drive on. Don't disturb Comrade Gu's driving." She interrupted Gu Yueze's next words.

The car was driving fast, and soon it arrived at the entrance of the brigade headquarters. "Everyone get off the car. Some roads in the village are very narrow. We need to walk in."

Ouyang Bai spoke first, and several people got off the car after picking up their packages. It was still early winter, and perhaps because it was getting late, there were few pedestrians on the village roads.

Although it was too dark, you could still see a few houses with lights on.

"Qingqing~ The captain hasn't come back yet, and it's too late. You can go visit him tomorrow. We have to rush back to the team soon, so we'll come to see you when we have time."

"I know, brother. My family has prepared everything. Are you guys going to rush back tonight? Then you two should drive carefully on the road."

"Don't worry, the captain's brothers are both good people. They helped a lot in building the house this time. Aunt Qiao from the captain's family is also kind-hearted. I have already talked to her in advance. She will take you around tomorrow.

Each team of newly arrived educated youth will lend you some food first. We have already taken it home for you. You have to pay back this food with your work points after the spring. Next time I come, just tell me if you need anything and I will bring it to you.

The things that should be added to the house have already been added. If there is still something missing, you can take the ox cart to the commune to buy it. If there is anything you don’t understand, go and ask Aunt Qiao. ”

It was the first time that Gu Yueze heard his good friend talk so much all the way, leaving him no chance to speak. After twists and turns, they arrived at a small courtyard.

The walls of the houses along the way were all very low, and from some of them one could even see what was going on in the yard. However, the wall of the yard they arrived at was the highest, and one could not see inside at all.

Ouyang Bai took out the key and pushed open the door. "I put all your things in one room. You can take them later. The three rooms are all the same size."

Then Ouyang Bo took a few people to familiarize themselves with the courtyard. He first taught them how to use the windlass, and taught them several times, so that they could gradually get familiar with it tomorrow. Fearing that they would not be able to learn it for a while, he considerately filled the two water tanks first.

The basic seasonings were also prepared in the kitchen. Ouyang Bo went to buy them personally according to the letter sent by Zhou Ma. There was also white flour and noodles in the cupboard. It can be said that all the daily necessities were prepared. Coal briquettes and small stoves were also prepared.

"Qingqing, there is a cellar here. Every household has one. In the next few days, follow Aunt Qiao to the villagers to exchange some vegetables and put them in it. Every household here will have stored vegetables.

Store enough vegetables in the cellar to last until spring. If it snows heavily, the vegetables outside will be frozen. Come here first and I will teach you how to heat the kang and the fire wall."

Several people at home would help light the fire, it's not that they don't know how to do it, but they all thought it was amazing when they saw it for the first time, "Brother, you've worked so hard to help with so much, have you eaten dinner, do you want me to make you some noodles?"

Ouyang Bai didn't give his friend a chance to speak. "No, we came here after having dinner. You probably haven't eaten yet after getting off the train! If you're hungry, cook some noodles. We'll leave first."

Anyway, there is not much work to do this winter, so you can slowly figure out the rest. In the end, if you have any problems, go find Aunt Qiao and build a good relationship with them, okay?"

The three men escorted the man to the door and said, "Remember to lock the door at night and don't open it to anyone casually. There are several wells in the village, but you have to pay for drawing water, or you can exchange it with something.

If there are still people who want to fetch water here and go in and out frequently, you can do the same as the villagers, do you understand?

We dug this well with our own money, and no one would say anything if we asked for money. Just close the gate first, and we should leave now.”
