The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Chapter 298 Tit for tat

Xie Yi thought for a moment and added, "But there's no rush. If the team thing can be done, you can try it out first. If it doesn't work, it won't be too late to consult me!"

In his eyes, a transportation company is still a dream that needs time to incubate. Only when the scrap yard is really on the right track and reaches a certain scale, will it be possible to officially start the chapter of transportation business.

Although the idea of ​​buying a truck to transport waste has always been in his mind, he is aware that there are still many prejudices in society against the profession of waste collection.

If Lu Shunping could gain a foothold in the team, it would undoubtedly be the ideal situation for him.

Xie Yi was unwilling to let Lu Shunping give up his current stable life because of his personal relationship. He could not bear that responsibility.

Lu Shunping seemed to understand on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.

It turns out that the brother Xie he respected went to Beijing not just for a comfortable family life, but to devote himself to the waste recycling business!

Waste recycling?

Isn't this equivalent to scavenging?

Why did Brother Xie choose this path?

No, Brother Xie said that the scrap business is booming and that he can even buy trucks specifically to transport the scrap. Is collecting scrap so profitable?

Seeing Lu Shunping's confused face, Xie Yi called him. Lu Shunping suddenly came back to his senses, realized his gaffe, and quickly concentrated on driving.

Xie Yi turned to look at his wife, and seeing that she looked a little pale, he pinched her hand distressedly: "Are you exhausted?"

Xu Xiufang shook her head slightly and said softly, "It's okay, not too tired."

After two days of train travel, Xu Xiufang did not get a good rest.

In comparison, although Xie Yi slept less, his strong body did not show any signs of fatigue. He even shaved in the early morning and looked energetic.

Xie Yi's heart was slightly relieved by his wife's words. His eyes fell on his well-behaved daughter nestled in Xu Xiufang's arms. His heart softened immediately. Just as he was about to speak,

"Guo Jiajun!"

At this moment, Erbao in the cargo compartment suddenly shouted loudly.

Xie Yi's temple throbbed twice. Xu Xiufang was also startled by Erbao's sudden shout, but when she saw Xie Yi suppressing his anger, she couldn't help but smile.

Looking outside, they were already near Xiaoxi Village. On the ridge of a field not far away, several young men were walking slowly towards them. They were Guo Jiajun and his two companions. Their eyes were all cast here.

Seeing Erbao, the three shouted in surprise, and then ran after the car, shouting: "It's Erbao! Erbao, are you back?"

"Yes!"

Erbao responded loudly, so loud that it could be heard clearly even in the cab.

Perhaps because he was too excited, the iron sheet of the cargo compartment made a series of noises as he jumped.

Xu Xiufang knocked lightly on the wall of the cargo compartment at the back and shouted in a louder voice: "Erbao, stop jumping around and be careful. We'll be home soon!"

As soon as the voice fell, a familiar and kind voice came again: "Erbao? Dabao? Xiaobao?"

It's grandma's voice!

This time, not only the second baby, but also the eldest and youngest baby became excited and kept calling "Grandma".

Xu Xiufang looked out the window and saw a group of people jogging towards them with swift movements. Xie's mother was walking at the front, followed closely by the others. Xie's father was sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed by Feng Dongling, and walking slowly at the end of the team.

Lu Shunping was shocked by the warm welcome and murmured to himself: "Xie brother, sister-in-law, you are so popular in the village!"

Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi smiled at each other. No words were needed. The warmth from home and the enthusiasm of the villagers had quietly permeated the air.

In fact, it was only at this moment that they themselves knew about the arrival of this surprise!

As for Xie's mother, her emotions were like a flood about to burst the dam, and she could hardly contain herself!

Just now, she was almost suffocated by Aunt Jiang's confusing words. She was so angry that she almost lost her mind. Her hands were clenched into fists, but at this critical moment, a sudden roar broke the tense atmosphere.

At first, Xie's mother thought that this was just an insignificant passerby passing by, and it did not cause much waves in her heart. She was planning to continue to argue with Aunt Jiang.

However, soon afterwards, a familiar voice penetrated the hustle and bustle and reached her ears clearly—"Erbao!"

"Second treasure?"

Mother Xie's heart trembled suddenly, as if something warm was surging. She hurriedly grabbed the sleeve of the person next to her and asked, "Is someone calling Erbao? Did I hear it wrongly?"

"That's right," Liu Ying, who was standing by, also had a look of surprise on her face. She stretched her neck as far as she could and tried to look back through the gap in the crowd. "That voice really sounded like my kid. Why was he running after the car? Eh? There seemed to be someone following the car?"

Upon hearing this, Xie's mother immediately stood on tiptoe and tried to look at the cargo compartment of the truck not far away.

Before she and the others could see clearly, the surrounding villagers could no longer hold back their surprise and started to discuss among themselves, "Is that Erbao in the back of the car? And Dabao and Xiaobao? Could it be that they went home?"

When Xie's mother heard this, the joy in her heart surged like the tide, almost overwhelming the river bank of reason. She immediately took a step forward and ran towards the truck desperately. While running, she squinted her eyes and tried to look back.

When she finally saw clearly that the people at the back of the truck were indeed the grandchildren she had been thinking about day and night, she could no longer hide her smile. The corners of her lips almost stretched to her ears, and she kept calling out, "Erbao! Dabao! Xiaobao!"

This scene was like a warm spring breeze that blew away the chill of winter. The surrounding villagers were also infected by this sudden family affection and couldn't help but follow Xie's mother's steps and ran.

Feng Dongling noticed that Xie's father was eager to catch up, but he seemed a little anxious because of his inconvenient legs, so he quickened his pace. Xie's father, who was usually silent and never easily showed his emotions, called out anxiously from behind, "Dongling, help me, push the wheelchair!"

"Okay, okay, I'll be right there!"

Feng Dongling quickly turned around, pushed the wheelchair steadily with both hands, and ran forward quickly. The scene was warm and magnificent.

The truck finally came to a slow stop, and the three children jumped out of the car one by one like little birds returning to their nests, and threw themselves directly into Xie's mother's warm embrace, "Grandma!"

"Oh, my precious grandchildren!"

Mother Xie hugged them tightly, her joy beyond words.

On the other side, Xu Xiufang got off the car a little later. Perhaps because of Xie Yi's previous tough image in the village, the villagers were curious but no one dared to approach him easily. They just watched from afar, their eyes full of surprise and admiration.

Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi had no time to care about the eyes of others and hurriedly walked through the crowd, only to see Feng Dongling pushing Xie's father towards them quickly.

Xie Yi reminded him in his usual calm tone: "Old Feng, slow down, Dad is still injured."

Then, an excited voice called out, "Dad!"

Xu Xiufang also took Xiaoyun's hand and shouted, "Dad!"

The wrinkles on Xie's father's face, carved by time and sunshine, softened by his smile. "Hey, you're back?"

His voice trembled slightly and his eyes sparkled with joy.
