Chapter 218

City Bus Station.

"Gangzi, hurry up, hurry up, the shuttle bus is here!"

Liu Xiao'e and Lin Gang came from the train station and have been waiting at the bus station for almost an hour.

Liu Xiao'e's legs were numb from squatting, and then she saw a shuttle bus entering the station.

Lin Gang looked at Liu Xiao'e who was rushing forward with her luggage bag, "Mom, don't worry, the bus hasn't stopped yet, and the people on the bus haven't gotten off yet."

For Liu Xiao'e, these words It didn't work. Although she had few opportunities to go out, she knew that in this era of bus rides, if she was not active, let alone occupying a seat, she would sometimes not be able to get on the bus.

"What do you know, hurry up!"

Liu Xiao'e carried a light duffel bag and sprinted at a speed of 100 meters. When everyone was heading to the front door, she He squeezed in directly from the back door.

The passengers who were getting off the bus were rushed to the point where the speed of getting off the bus was slightly delayed.

Some passengers who got off the bus had their feet stepped on inexplicably, and they didn't know who stepped on them. They were yelling and swearing, but the speed of getting off the bus was not slow at all.

Liu Xiao'e finally squeezed into the car. She brushed her slightly messy hair and took a look. There were many empty seats in the back of the car.

She quickly took a seat by herself and occupied a seat with her duffel bag.

Until she had secured her seat, she watched proudly as the passengers on the bus hurriedly grabbed their seats.

But not long after the pride appeared on her face, she became furious when she saw Lin Gang slowly getting into the car.

"Hurry up, kid, you are even slower than my old lady!"

Lin Gang glanced at Liu Xiao'e helplessly, "Mom, there are people blocking me in front of me, I can't run on them. Come over here?”

“You’re always right. , your dad thought you could take care of me when I went out with you, but I ended up taking care of you all the way."

Liu Xiao'e said, picking up the luggage bag and moving her buttocks in disgust, and sat down on the chair. He gave up the aisle seat to Lin Gang.

Lin Gang put the luggage bag on the luggage rack, sat down and said: "Mom, I took care of you along the way. If nothing else, at least I was carrying the luggage all the way here. .”

Liu Xiao'e couldn't refute this and glared at him: "Who am I running back for?"

Lin Gang: "."

Liu Xiao'e thought about getting motion sick in a car. I immediately thought of opening the car window, but it didn't open even after a long time.

"You guys with poor eyesight, hurry up and see how to open this car window. I couldn't open it after trying it for a long time."

Lin Gang did not dare to say a word even after being scolded, and silently opened the window. Open the car window buckle and push the glass window, and it will open all of a sudden.

At the same time, the cold air outside the car instantly poured into the car, making Liu Xiao'e and Lin Gang shiver.

Lin Gang said in a negotiating tone: "Mom, it's too cold outside. It will get even colder when the car starts moving. How about closing the window?"

Liu Xiao'e stopped and said, "No. Turn it off, you can't turn it off, I will get motion sickness later, if Close the window and I vomit on you?"

Lin Gang: "."

"Mom, can we speak more gently? What will happen to the way you talk when we get to the Li family? Scaring your future daughter-in-law.”

Liu Xiao'e: "."

After marrying a daughter-in-law, you forget about your mother. Now before you even get a daughter-in-law, you start to despise me. You are a heartless brat and a white-eyed wolf!

Lin Gang had never been in a car with Liu Xiao'e. This was the first time he knew what she meant by motion sickness?

The car drove out of the bus station and before it was completely out of the city, her face had already turned pale.

As he was about to leave the city, at an intersection, the driver slammed on the brakes. Liu Xiao'e's pale face changed, and she stretched out the window suddenly, and at the same time she heard an 'uh' sound.

Liu Xiaoe vomited!

This vomiting was uncontrollable and I didn’t stop until all the food in my stomach was vomited out.

After vomiting all the food in her stomach, Liu Xiaoe slumped in her seat as if she was seriously ill.

“I’ve had a lot of cold air, third child, help me take out the thermos cup from my bag.”

Lin Gangzheng didn’t know how to take care of Liu Xiao’e who was motion sick. Listen to her As soon as I was reminded, I quickly found the thermos cup from my bag.

It was filled with boiling water from the train, which was just right for my mouth. I drank a few mouthfuls of hot water and my stomach felt much better.

Seeing that Liu Xiao'e's complexion had improved, Lin Gang carefully closed the window a little, leaving only a crack to let in fresh air without causing Liu Xiao'e to vomit due to the smell of diesel.

“Mom, the quality of the thermos cup Lin Shu gave you is really good. It won’t leak even if it’s tightly closed and put in the bag. It’s been two hours since I poured the water in, and it’s still so hot. The insulation effect is also good. Not bad.”

Liu Xiao’e’s head was dizzy and she was not in the mood to pay attention to him.

"Mom, next time we go back to the provincial capital, can you ask Lin Shu to give one to me and Wanwan as well?"

He also wants such a good thermos cup. Carrying this kind of thermos cup when going out to the stall, he no longer has to drink cold water midway.

Setting up a stall outside in this kind of weather and having to drink cold water is really chilling and uplifting.

"I'll ask her about this."

Liu Xiao'e didn't agree immediately. Considering Lin Shu's preference for Li Wan, giving a thermos cup shouldn't be a big deal.

The shuttle bus was driving, and Liu Xiao'e's stomach was churning. On the way, Lin Gang wanted to chat with Liu Xiao'e again.

Liu Xiao'e was completely groggy and didn't want to speak.

She regretted taking this trip, but it was their parents' responsibility for the third child to find a partner, so she had to make this trip no matter what.

I just thought that when I returned to the provincial capital this time, I would try not to back up my car and come back. This motion sickness is so uncomfortable.

"Dad, please quickly marinate the pig head meat, and then go to the bus station to pick up my mother and the others. I estimate that they should be arriving soon."

County to city There are two shuttle buses in the afternoon. Lin Xue guessed that Liu Xiao'e would take the last bus back in the afternoon.

In fact, Liu Xiao'e and the others were lucky to come back this time. The railway transportation just happened to have an extra express train. Otherwise, it would have been almost evening when they arrived in the city.

But this time I took the shuttle bus and arrived at the county seat. It was almost dark.

Deng Caiju was at the door of the bus station, and neither Liu Xiaoe nor Lin Gang recognized him.

"Mom, Gangzi, you are finally here. You have worked hard all the way. Come! I will carry this luggage."

Deng Cai couldn't help but put the luggage in Lin Gang's hands on his shoulders. , "Gangzi, help mom hold the bag."

Lin Gang took the luggage bag from Liu Xiao'e's hand, supported Liu Xiao'e and walked out.

"Brother-in-law, have you been waiting here for a long time?"

"It didn't take long, I guessed the time before I came over. It's always hard to ride in a car in this weather, let's go back quickly, Xiaoxue might The food is ready. "

"Oh, don't tell me, I don't envy this car ride. It's so miserable." Liu Xiao'e got out of the car, her motion sickness was relieved a little, but her whole body was still the same. Uncomfortable.

It’s about two miles from the bus station to the canteen, not too far.

Measuring with both feet, it only takes about twenty minutes.

Walking from the bus station to the canteen, Liu Xiao'e's mind cleared up and she didn't feel dizzy or nauseated due to motion sickness.

When I entered the old house and smelled the aroma of the food, I suddenly felt hungry and felt like I could eat two large bowls of rice.

"Xiaoxue, Mom and Gangzi are back!"

"Oh, Mom, you are finally here, come in quickly, I have just prepared the food." Lin Xue greeted him. , followed closely behind Lin Xue were Ding Zaichun and several children.

"Auntie, cousin just now."

"Grandma, third uncle."

"Hey, let's go in and talk. Zaichun, are you there? Are you still used to this place?"

Liu Xiao'e walked into the house with a child in hand, not forgetting to look back and pay attention to Ding Zaichun.

"Don't worry, aunt, I'm fine here."

"It's fine. If you're not used to it here and want to develop in the provincial capital, and your cousin needs people, you can go up and help her."

"Mom, you just arrived and you didn't even sit down and you started poaching people from my place?" Lin Xue stamped her feet angrily.

Ding Zaichun has been working in the canteen for so long and is considered an old employee. Whether the store is retail or wholesale, he can do a good job.

If someone is poached suddenly, then she will be so busy that she will be hit in the back of the head.

Liu Xiao'e smiled and scolded: "Why are you in a hurry? Even if Zaichun wants to go to the provincial capital, he will definitely have to wait for some time until you recruit people here before leaving."

Ding Zaichun smiled, the provincial capital is considered It was the only big city in the country, so of course he wanted to see it.

It’s just like Liu Xiao’e said, I can’t leave for a while, at least I have to wait until Lin Xue recruits someone here.

"This matter must be discussed at least after the first month of the year. It has just passed the New Year. I believe there are many people looking for jobs. It should not be difficult to recruit people."

Lin Xue haha, recruiting. People are not difficult. But it was difficult to recruit someone the couple could trust.

"You have all gone to the provincial capital, and now I am the only one left here in the county."

Lin Gang suddenly raised his head, looked at Lin Xue, and smiled: "Sister, if you want, you can, too. Go to the provincial capital to develop. However, you are considered stable now. It has been decided that if we go to the provincial capital, we will have to start all over again.”

After dinner, the family chatted about the situation in the provincial capital. Liu Xiaoe learned about the situation of the Li family and agreed to go to Li tomorrow. After paying the bride price at home, everyone went to bed.

Liu Xiao'e was really tired after riding in the car all day. She didn't even get up until dawn, and she didn't even get up in the middle of the night.

I got up and washed up the next day. As soon as I sat down to prepare for breakfast, I saw Deng Cai coming in from outside carrying a pig's head.

"Deng Cai, why did you get up so early?"

Deng Cai put the pig's head in a basin aside and said with a smile: "I'm not going to celebrate the bride price today. I thought I couldn't buy meat, so the pig's head has to be Get one and it will be considered as meat."

Liu Xiao'e nodded with satisfaction: "You are a big sister. My husband is very attentive and the arrangements are very proper."

Deng Cai smiled, washed his hands and sat at the table, "I, the brother-in-law, have to be careful about Gangzi's life-long events. "

The Yue family are all in the provincial capital, and he is the only brother-in-law in the county. How dare he not be careful.

It was rare for Lin Gang to express his gratitude to Deng Cai in a serious manner, which made Deng Cai quickly wave his hand and told them to eat quickly, otherwise they would be cold after a while.

After breakfast, Liu Xiaoe once again checked the wedding cakes and other items that had been given as gifts today, and then took out a stack of red envelopes from her bag, with a certain amount of money stuffed into each red envelope.

This red envelope went to the Li family for the children of the Li family and relatives.

“Mom, Gangzi has really made a lot of money by setting up stalls in the provincial capital these days?”

“I’ve made a little money, at least now he doesn’t need me and your dad to pay for his wedding. out.”

Lin Xue turned to look at Lin Gang who was tying gifts outside, and asked in a low voice: "He really doesn't want to go to work and is going to sell his work quota?"

Liu Xiao'e put away the red envelope stuffed with money. He smiled and said, "Your dad and I You mean, he makes his own decision. What your brothers and sisters mean is that as long as he is willing to make progress, just let him do whatever he wants."

Although setting up a stall in the provincial capital is hard, the money you make is real. It is many times more than going to work.

The younger son-in-law said this is called: only when you give up can you gain something.

You cannot have all the benefits in the world. If you want to get a certain harvest, you must give up another way out.

I went to see the bride price today, and I had already made arrangements with the Li family and Mingxin’s mother in advance.

Ming Xin’s mother was waiting for them halfway.

When they arrive, we will rush to the village where the Li family is located.

The Li family.

Early this morning, the Li family slaughtered chickens and ducks. People who didn't know anything speculated that there was some happy event in their family today.

"His aunt, your family is killing chickens and fishes again today. Are you expecting a distinguished guest?"

Other villagers passing by pricked up their ears. They also wanted to know who from the Li family was coming today. ?

While she was shedding chickens and ducks, Mother Li heard the neighbor's question and said with a smile: "Yes! Today my family is celebrating the bride price. The husband works in the city and is usually busy. Today I specially Take time to come over The bride price, by the way, I asked Wanwan for the certificate.”

“Hi! Wanwan found a man who has a job in the city?”

“Yes, he is still a regular employee.” br>


"Why do the formal workers in the city want to find Wanwan? Could it be that your family wants to marry Wanwan to an old bachelor because they want the people in the city to eat the national food?"

"That's not right, if she is a formal worker. It can't be an old bachelor. Could it be that you married Wanwan to your second wife or an old widower?"

This statement shocked everyone.

The villagers who were paying attention to the Li family looked at Mother Li with incredulous expressions.

Some even glared at Mother Li with condemning eyes, as if to say, how could you marry your biological daughter to such an old man?

When Father Li came out with hot water, he met the neighbor's disapproving eyes and was a little confused. What was going on?

"Old Li, no matter how short of money you are, no matter how bad Wanwan's reputation is, you can't marry such a young beauty to a bald old man!"

“My opponent, Wanwan is the girl we grew up watching, so sensible and well-behaved Ah, how can you bear to send her into the pit of fire?”

“It’s not easy to be a stepmother. You are not marrying Wanwan to enjoy happiness, but you are delaying her for the rest of her life. You are doing evil!”

“How could you do this?”

Faced with the condemnation from the villagers, Li's father couldn't laugh or cry. He finally understood what they meant.

"Everyone may have misunderstood. It's true that Wanwan's partner is a worker in the city, but she is not yet 70 or 80 years old, so she is still young."

But no one believed this.

Everyone has the same idea. If there are no seventy-year-olds or eighty-year-olds, then there must be at least forty or fifty?

"Lao Li, that person won't be similar to you, right? When the two of you drink together, will it be a son-in-law relationship, or a brother-in-law relationship?"

Although the villagers were angry after hearing this, some of them couldn't help laughing.

Father Li also laughed angrily at them, "Okay, I know everyone has good intentions. But please clarify the situation first before saying this."

"Why didn't we figure it out? ? How old is Wanwan? You are determined to marry her to an old bald man. We can't do that. Did you say a word or two? "

Father Li stroked his forehead, "I said that Wanwan's partner is very young, two years older than Wanwan. How come he sounds like an old bald man to you? "

“It’s not an old bald man, is it an old and ugly short winter melon?”

The old and ugly short winter melon turned around while pushing the bicycle, pointed at himself, and asked the people behind him: "Are they talking about me?"

Ming Xin's mother and Lin Xue both nodded in embarrassment.

Liu Xiao'e had no worries about her son. She resisted the urge to burst into laughter and asked, "If it wasn't you, could it be one of us?"
