Big Wheel's shout almost sent Jiang Yan away.
Si Lu looked puzzled, "If you are hungry, eat first."
She had a mouth full of words but couldn't explain it clearly.
"Yes, I'm hungry, let's eat." Jiang Yan went to the outer room angrily and brought out all the food that was warm in the pot.
Si Lu washed his hands and sat opposite Jiang Yan.
The meal was ready and the two of them ate and chatted.
"What did you do so early?"
"Let's go to Bao's house to return the bicycle." Si Lu said, "I'll ask the captain to write a letter of introduction. We can leave after dinner, saving you the trouble."
"Hmm? Leaving now?"
"Today is the twenty-first day of the twelfth lunar month. I want to go to the provincial capital first to visit your uncle, and then we can take a train to the capital. It will take at least a few days, so it will be good if we can arrive before the New Year."
Counting the days, it’s quite tight.
The main reason is that the journey is long and the current means of transportation are not very good, so all our time is wasted on the road.
"What about the ticket?"
"Ask your comrades to buy tickets for you. That's the good thing about being a soldier. You have friends all over the world. It's easy to ask them to buy you train tickets."
"Okay." Jiang Yan looked at Xiaobai, "What about Xiaobai?"
"The captain said to keep the dog at their home, and when we leave, we'll send the dog and its kennel with us."
It can only be the.
The two quickly finished their breakfast and started packing.
"We will buy the gifts in Beijing, mainly some spare clothes and daily necessities."
Si Lu put the last bowl on the bowl rack, shook off the water drops on his hands and said, "Don't bring too much. If you need anything, you can buy it in the capital. This is a good time to buy you some more things."
"I don't need anything, so I don't need to spend that money."
As they were talking, the gate was pushed open. Li Caiying stood in the yard and shouted, "Little Jiang, the educated youth?"
"Auntie, come in quickly." Jiang Yan hurried out and let Li Caiying into the house.
"Aunt." Si Lu put down the work in his hands and took the initiative to greet Li Caiying.
"Hey!"
As soon as Li Caiying saw Si Lu, she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She said, these two children are as good as each other, so their marriage must not be delayed too long. And now, they are about to get married.
When Si Lu returned the bicycle in the morning, they were shocked. They thought Si Lu would come back in the middle of the night and return the bicycle. After waiting for a long time, she knew what was going on. Before coming, the old man specifically told her not to ask questions that she shouldn't ask, so as to avoid embarrassment for the couple.
Is she such an unreliable person?
"I'm here to get the dog."
Li Caiying smiled and said, "Little Jiang Zhiqing, don't worry about going to the capital. This is the hero who saved my little treasure. I will definitely not treat him badly. Don't worry."
"I can't be more relieved to leave Xiaobai to Auntie."
"Okay." Li Caiying handed the bag in her hand to Jiang Yan, "This is a little gift from your uncle and I. It's not worth much. It's all homemade dried fruits. You can keep them for the journey."
Jiang Yan didn't refuse, "Okay, thank you, auntie."
"Speaking of the day when I slaughtered the pig, I wanted to settle the fish pond account with you, but in the end I didn't get to do it."
"There's no rush for this." Jiang Yan said, "My uncle is not a selfless person, but he is honest and upright. I trust him. Aunt, let's talk about the account when I come back."
"Okay!" Li Caiying pointed at Xiaobai's nest and said, "Then I'll take the dog away."
Jiang Yan bent down, handed the doghouse to Li Caiying, and patted Xiaobai's head, "You have to be obedient, do you understand?"
obedient?
It has been missing for three days and two days. Today someone comes to feed it, and tomorrow someone comes to feed it. It has become a stray dog, and you still want it to be obedient? What a jerk!
Xiaobai wants to show his teeth!
When he caught a glimpse of Si Lu out of the corner of his eye, he immediately became obedient, closed his grinning mouth, and licked Jiang Yan's hand in a flattering manner.
"Okay then. I'll be leaving first. I wish you a safe journey. Xiao Si, take good care of your parents."
"Okay, auntie, thank you."
"Aunt, I'll take you there."
Jiang Yan sent Li Caiying away, and the two talked for a few more words before she turned back.
The two continued to pack their things, including food and daily necessities, filling three bags.
This does not include Jiang Yan’s small shoulder bag.
"Isn't that a bit too much? It's inconvenient to get on and off the bus, right?"
"I'm here, don't worry."
"Okay, let's go!" Jiang Yan put out the stove, locked the door, and walked out of the yard with Si Lu.
The two had just locked the gate when they saw Old Luo arriving driving a ox cart.
"Uncle Luo?"
"Haha, I'll take you to the station. It will take you forever to get there just by walking."
Jiang Yan walked forward cheerfully and put the luggage into the car, "Thank you, Uncle Luo." Every household is buying New Year's goods now, and it is the time to use the car. Since people are making this special trip, of course they have to be a little sweet-mouthed.
"Why are you thanking me? It's the head of the group who thought of it carefully."
Si Lu put the two big bags in the car and sat down next to Jiang Yan, "Uncle, let's go."
"All right!" Old Luo happily cracked his whip, "Go!"
He is the head of the group. How can he not be happy if you call him uncle?
The snowy mountain road was difficult to travel on, and it was almost noon when the ox cart arrived in the town.
The two were not in a hurry. They went to the state-owned restaurant to have lunch first, and then bought tickets to go to the county by bus.
Si Lu arranged everything. As soon as the two arrived at the county, Si Lu's comrade-in-arms brought them two sleeper tickets.
"This train was added at the last minute. It's a midnight train. Do you two have a place to rest?"
Si Lu smiled and said, "Yes, we are going to have a meal with the old squad leader."
His comrade smiled and said, "Okay, kid, since you have plans, I won't meddle in your business. I still have a mission. Let's get together next time."
"Okay." The two hands were clasped together tightly.
"Let's go! Goodbye, sister-in-law."
Jiang Yan hurriedly said goodbye to them with a polite smile on her face, but her eyelids were twitching.
After they walked away, she whispered to Si Lu, "When you introduce me to your comrades, can you please not grin so widely every time, like a peacock spreading its tail? It's too ugly."
"Is it ugly?"
Jiang Yan nodded seriously. Not only was it ugly, but it was also unbearable. Didn’t he realize how much he deserved a beating?
"Okay, I'll be more restrained next time."
The two left the station, went to the department store to buy some gifts, and then went to Zhang Xingye's home.
It was after get off work and Zhang Xingye was not there. He was probably working overtime.
Fortunately, Si Lu knew where the key to his house was. He bent down and picked a brick from the wall, took out the key from inside, and opened the door directly.
And this kind of operation?
Jiang Yan only said: "Isn't he afraid of people finding out his habits and his home being robbed?"
"Who would dare to go to his house and steal things? Wouldn't that be like asking for death?"
The door opened, and a strange smell came from the messy room...
Jiang Yan covered her nose, "It seems like something has gone bad!"
