Qin Yan frowned deeply, threw the key into the drawer, closed the door and went upstairs without caring about it.

Qin Yan was the only one left in the big house, as if there was an echo on the phone. Before Ye Jibei came, Qin Yan had been living alone. After Ye Jibei left, Qin Yan felt that the house was very deserted. The place was too noisy, and one person was worth ten people, which gave him this illusion.

A phone call brought Li Qing and Song Shize home. After the two came, the family became popular again, which made Qin Yan feel much better.

……

In order to save money, Ye Jibei bought a hard-seat train ticket. After getting on the train, he found his own seat and sat down. Ye Jibei was very satisfied with this window seat. When he couldn't sleep, he could look at the scenery along the way, day and night. Should pass soon.

Still holding the mobile phone that Qin Yan gave him, Ye Jibei looked at the mobile phone and remembered that he forgot to return the mobile phone to Qin Yan, but he had used this mobile phone for several months, even if Qin Yan returned it, he might not be willing to take it back. , it is better to hurry up and save some money by working part-time, and pay Qin Yan directly.

Taking out a pen and paper from his schoolbag, Ye Jibei counted the money he owed Qin Yan. Except for living expenses and tuition fees, Qin Yan paid for his meals this year, as well as the things Qin Yan usually bought for him. It sounds like a lot of money.Although Qin Yan never asked him to pay for the meal, Ye Jibei couldn't eat other people's food and live in it with peace of mind.Thinking of the interruption to Qin Yan during this period, Ye Jibei felt very sorry, and when he earned money, he must buy a gift for Qin Yan to thank him for his kindness.

Putting the pen and paper back into his schoolbag, Ye Jibei propped his head and sighed. He owed Qin Yan too much, and he didn't know when he could pay it off. He couldn't let his grandpa know that he owed so much money, and he couldn't let his grandpa worry about him.

There was a lot of noise in the carriage, and the seating space was limited. It was difficult for Ye Jibei to stretch his legs, and sitting for a long time made him very tired, and his butt hurt too much.Drowsy on the road, Ye Jibei came to his senses after the train entered the boundary of Province Y. He looked outside excitedly. After a year, he finally returned to his hometown.

Ye Jibei didn't have a lot of luggage. After getting off the train, he walked out of the train station with the crowd and took a bus to the bus station not far from the train station. This bus was leading to their town. Ye Jibei wanted to take this bus back home. Home.

After sitting on the bus for about three hours, Ye Jibei got out of the car and rushed home impatiently. He hadn't showered for more than a day, sweated a lot, and felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to go home and feel comfortable. take a shower.

There are no cars from the town to the mountain village, and the mountain roads are rugged, making it difficult for vehicles to pass. The villagers basically have to walk to the town to get in the car.Ye Jibei has walked this road many times. He studied in the town for junior high school and high school, and he walks back and forth every day. This is almost the case in the nearby villages. No child in any family will cry tired. Everyone has long been used to it. .

The mountain road is winding and difficult to walk. You have to climb over the mountain in front of you to get to Ye Jibei's home. Except for the clansmen, few people go there, and no one wants to go over the mountains to such a backward place. , but there is no Internet, which young people can stand it now.

Sweating all over his body, Ye Jibei finally returned to the village after walking through a forest. On the way home, the clansmen were very surprised to see Ye Jibei, obviously they didn't expect him to come back after going outside.

Smiling and saying hello to his clansmen, Ye Jibei walked home, and when he reached the door, he shouted as he entered, "Grandpa! I'm back!"

Grandpa Ye was sitting in the yard. Hearing Ye Jibei's voice, the old man's hands trembled, and the cigarette he was rolling fell to the ground, and the leaves scattered all over the floor.

Seeing his grandpa, Ye Jibei threw his luggage aside, hugged the old man, and called grandpa with red eyes, the old man patted his grandson on the back and said, "Just come back, just come back."

Ye Jibei didn't come back during Chinese New Year, and many clansmen were talking about it. They looked at Grandpa Ye with sympathy, and guessed that Ye Jibei might just be another young man who went to the outside world and didn't want to come back.Grandpa Ye knew his grandson well, Ye Jibei was raised by him, his grandson is not the kind of person who wants to enjoy himself, he will not be like what they said.

Grandpa Ye hasn't had a good time this year. He is not worried that Ye Jibei doesn't want to go home, but he is afraid that he will encounter some dangers outside. Those days, the old man often regrets driving Ye Jibei away. He only has one in his hand. Address, I don't have much money with me, if the family moves away, who can Ye Jibei go to.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, Ye Jibei felt that his grandfather was much older than when he left, his nose was sore, he didn't want to cry in front of his grandfather, so he turned around and picked up his luggage, gently wiped his eyes The old man said, "Grandpa, I bought something for you."

Grandpa Ye saw Ye Jibei taking out one item from the left and the other item on the right, and sighed: "It's not easy to make money outside, why are you spending so much money, grandpa is old and doesn't need these things, you can take them back. "

Ye Jibei paused when he was holding the things, and then continued to take out the things as if he hadn't heard what his grandfather said, but there was no smile on his face. Grandpa Ye knew his grandson's character, so he had to accept the things. Ye Jibei Only then was Bei happy.

Having not seen his grandson for a year, Grandpa Ye insisted on cooking for Ye Jibei himself. Ye Jibei couldn't stop him, so he fought beside him, and the dishes were served on the table. talking.

Ye Jibei missed his grandpa's cooking for a long time, but when he put the dish in his mouth, he found that the dish was not as delicious as before. After eating so many delicacies from mountains and seas with Qin Yan, his taste changed Similar to Qin Yan, these bland meals are really tasteless.Ye Jibei comforted himself while blaming himself, maybe his taste would change after staying at home for a while, but he still fell into deep self-blame.

Grandpa Ye was very happy when Ye Jibei came back. During the meal, he asked about Ye Jibei's situation there and why he didn't go home during the Chinese New Year.

"When I first arrived there, I didn't find my cousin. Later, I found out that my cousin had passed away. It was my cousin's son who brought me home. I was planning to find a job, but Brother Qin asked me to consider going to school. He said that he was willing to pay for my studies. He lent me the money, and I can pay it back later. I was in my third year of high school there, and I didn’t go home during the Chinese New Year because the holiday for the third year of high school was too short, and I wanted to wait for the college entrance examination. I'll come back to see you after the end, we don't have a phone here, and we can't tell you. Grandpa, I'm sorry." Ye Jibei told his grandpa the ins and outs of the matter.

Grandpa Ye was very emotional when he learned of Qin's mother's death. He didn't expect her to pass away so early. Hearing that Ye Jibei continued to study there, Grandpa Ye was very happy again. He smiled kindly: "Silly Son, what did you say to grandpa? I'm sorry, you just finished the college entrance examination? How did you do?"

"It's okay, the results will come out after a while." Ye Jibei replied truthfully.

Grandpa Ye said happily: "Our Ye family is going to have a college student again."

Ye Jibei was a little shy. Except for Qin Yan's mother, no one in the clan went to college. He should be the second one in the clan to go to college.

Remembering Ye Jibei's words, Grandpa Ye asked him: "How much money do you owe your cousin, tell Grandpa, I still have some here, you can pay your cousin back."

Not daring to tell the truth to his grandfather, Ye Jibei casually pulled out a sum: "I owe two thousand, and I plan to go out to work in a few days. You can keep your money for yourself, and you don't have to pay it back."

2000 yuan is not a small amount for the Ye family. It is almost half a year's living expenses, but it is still within the acceptable range of Grandpa Ye. Grandpa Ye did not become suspicious without knowing the situation outside. Ye Jibei heaved a sigh of relief. Lied in front of him, every time he lied, he felt very guilty.

"When are you leaving?" Hearing that Ye Jibei was going out to work again, the old man was a little bit reluctant to part with his grandson, but he would not stop him. Anything outside is much better than staying with him as an old man in this backward mountain village. I just want my grandson to stay for a few more days, they just met each other.

"Leave in a few days, don't worry, I haven't been with Grandpa enough yet." Ye Jibei smiled.

Hearing this made Grandpa Ye happy, he stood up and said, "I'll boil water for you, let's take a bath, and see how sweaty you are."

The excitement of going home made Ye Jibei forget about taking a bath, he stopped Grandpa Ye and said: "Master, I can do it myself, you can rest."

Grandpa Ye didn't force it, and smiled. Ye Jibei went to boil a large pot of water, then poured it into the bathtub and mixed it with cold water, took off his dirty clothes, and stepped into the bathtub to wash off the dirt on his body.In Qin's house, showers have always been used. Although showers are convenient to use, they are not as comfortable as soaking in a bath. After soaking in the tub for a long time, Ji Bei didn't come out until his fingers turned white.

Entering the room, Ye Jibei saw his bed jumping happily and rolled over on the bed. Even though his bed was not as soft or as big as the Qin family's, but as the saying goes, gold nests silver The kennel is not as good as your own kennel, lying on your own bed makes Ye Jibei feel comfortable all over.

Didn't sleep well on the train, came back and walked so far, Ye Jibei fell asleep not long after lying on the bed, after he fell asleep, Grandpa Ye came to Ye Jibei's room and helped him cover the quilt , sat on the edge of the bed and watched the grandson for a long time before leaving.

Ye Jibei was woken up by the vibrating sound of the phone. He rubbed his eyes and picked up the phone, and connected without looking at the name on the screen: "Hello."

Ye Jibei's voice obviously didn't wake up, Ling Tian said over there: "Are you sleeping?"

"Hmm..." Ye Jibei sat up to answer the phone.

Ling Tian: "Didn't I hear you talking about working part-time during the summer vacation? I have a job here, do you want to do it, as a tutor for high school students, the salary is 30 yuan an hour, will you come or not?"
