Chapter 245: Entering the Village Secretly
Chapter 245: Entering the Village Secretly
The car started off in the early morning and now the sky is completely bright.
Lu Yidong sat up, but was still in a half-asleep state. The little girl's eyelids kept fighting each other. When her mother slapped her head, she just pouted and made two "嘤嘤" sounds to express her dissatisfaction, but still did not wake up.
Bai Songzhe felt sleepy, after all, he was woken up a little early. He put his head on Bai Qingxia's shoulder and smacked his lips like a child. He didn't know if he had eaten his favorite banana in his dream.
At this moment, Bai Songzhe's head was suddenly lifted up by a hand. Bai Qingxia turned her head and found it was Lu Yuanqiu.
"Let me do it." Lu Yuanqiu said.
He switched seats with Bai Qingxia and let Bai Songzhe rest his head on his shoulder.
"Are your shoulders sore?" Lu Yuanqiu looked at her.
The girl shook her head gently at him and responded with a smile: "Not bad."
"Are you okay? Iron shoulder, I've been carrying you for almost an hour."
Lu Yuanqiu complained, and Bai Qingxia lowered her head and stopped talking. She waited until Lu Yuanqiu turned his head away before she raised her hand and rubbed the shoulder on that side.
Several uncles were taking a nap with their eyes closed, as were the two aunts and the sister. The third aunt, who still had her eyes open, listened to the boys and girls talking opposite her and smiled slightly.
Seeing her sister-in-law looking over, Third Aunt asked Su Xiaoya, "Who is older between the two of them?"
Su Xiaoya responded: "Qiuqiu is older, Qiuqiu is born in February, and Xiaoxia is born in September."
"Really? That's great. Qiuqiu is different now. The change is huge. It's like she has become a different person." Third Aunt seemed to have some hint and commented with a smile.
Lu Yuanqiu was a little embarrassed and didn't say anything. Bai Qingxia thought it had nothing to do with her and they were just talking about Lu Yuanqiu, so she just listened quietly.
She also felt that Lu Yuanqiu had changed a lot.
Of course Su Xiaoya knew what her third sister-in-law was talking about. She looked at Bai Qingxia with some emotion. Even she thought that Lu Yuanqiu's current change was all because of this girl.
It was clear that a few months ago, her son was still an uneducated gangster. Although in her eyes, her son was still a treasure no matter how bad he was, she was happiest that Lu Yuanqiu could move in a good direction.
At this time, Lu Tian's voice came from the front of the car: "Third brother, can you come in?"
Lu Yuan opened his eyes, glanced outside, and nodded, "Here, I've been informed."
Bai Qingxia looked forward and was stunned. This was not some country grandmother's house, but County xx. The big red g emblem could be seen at a glance.
Seeing the girl's confusion, Lu Yuanqiu explained in a low voice: "The roads in the village are not good, the car can't drive in, and we can't make such a big fuss... You will know later, this is why my uncles don't like to go back to their hometown."
Bai Qingxia listened with a confused look on her face. She probably understood the reason.
Lu Yuanqiu spoke with a sigh, "Those who want to make money and get things done, my three uncles are the kings and masters in the eyes of the villagers. They can do everything. In the past, they could help a little, but now there are too many people asking for help. It's easy to get into trouble, especially my third uncle."
Bai Qingxia now understood everything.
"Why are you telling Xiaoxia all this?" Su Xiaoya reminded her son with her eyes.
Bai Qingxia shrank her neck slightly. If necessary, she could pretend not to hear it... as long as she didn't get found by the man in black.
After the group got off the car, Bai Qingxia saw several middle-aged men walking quickly out of the building. They were greeted enthusiastically by the crowd and shook hands solemnly with the three uncles one by one.
They exchanged some simple words, and a bald middle-aged man in the building seemed to be the leader. He immediately turned around and ordered, "Hurry up! Hurry up! This is early in the morning when there are not many people around."
After saying that, he looked over here, as if he was counting the number of people.
Bai Qingxia didn't dare to look at the group of people. She faced her father and rubbed his face with both hands: "Are you cold?"
"Banana banana~" Lu Yuanqiu said at this time: "We didn't go home on the same day before. This is the first time we all go back together, so it's a little troublesome."
Bai Qingxia didn't listen, fearing that Lu Yuanqiu would tell her some secrets. She still wanted to live a good life with her father.
Not long after, four tricycles with sheds drove over. Seeing this, Lu Yuanqiu couldn't hold back. He smiled and said, "How do we divide it? There are six people in my family."
The eldest uncle took a look and allocated the cars: "Let your father ride with us, your mother and your second uncle will ride in one, and the four of you will ride in one."
The four people he was talking about were Lu Yuanqiu, Bai Qingxia, Lu Yidong and Bai Songzhe.
After Bai Qingxia and Lu Yuanqiu got on the tricycle, the silent "driver" in front started the car.
"Banana banana!" Bai Songzhe said dissatisfiedly, as if he felt that he had already got off the car, but he did not see the bananas in the trunk that had just been promised.
"Shut up!"
Just as Lu Yuanqiu was about to speak, Bai Qingxia suddenly yelled at her father.
Now that the adults were not around, she finally dared to speak louder and glared at her father.
After being scolded by his daughter, Bai Songzhe became obedient, sitting there with his body huddled, not saying a word.
Lu Yuanqiu also shrank back: "So fierce, why are you so fierce, you won't be the kind of person who likes domestic violence even after you get married, right?"
Being accused of such a "false" crime, Bai Qingxia was speechless. She could only remain silent and ignore Lu Yuanqiu.
Lu Yidong complained: "What does Sister Bai's marriage have to do with you? Even if she commits domestic violence, it won't be your turn."
This little Loli is the type who will side with her brother in front of outsiders, but will confront her brother if there are no outsiders around.
Lu Yuanqiu was not polite and directly locked her throat: "Can't I give an example? Is that okay? Tell me, tell me."
"Okay, okay, okay!" Lu Yido quickly patted his arm and begged for mercy.
Bai Qingxia listened to the brother and sister bickering and just smiled stiffly. She had never thought that there would be a day when she would get married.
After driving for more than half an hour, the tricycle finally arrived at the entrance of the village. Even in front of a group of children, the driver's tone was still full of respect: "We're here. I'm not familiar with the roads in the village. Do you want me to help you find the way, or do you want us to get off here?"
Lu Yuanqiu glanced at him and said, "Let's just leave it at that. It doesn't matter to us."
"okay!"
After the four people got off the car, they returned to the original route with the tricycle carrying the canopy.
Lu Yuanqiu stood at the entrance of the village, looking at the surrounding environment, feeling a little emotional for a moment.
He hadn't been back to the village for ten years. Later, when his grandmother got old, even though she didn't want to go to the city, several uncles forced her to live in the city.
Since grandma is not in the village, there is no point in going back to it.
Although he was born in the 90s, Lu Yuanqiu hardly knew anyone in the village and didn't know any of his relatives. If his father wasn't around to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, he would probably only interact with his uncles in the future.
"Do you know the way?" Lu Yuanqiu looked at his sister.
Lu Yidong looked at his brother as if he was mentally retarded: "I only went back once last year, how could you forget so quickly? Do you have the memory of a goldfish?"
