Chapter 1011 1011. Returning like an arrow
It is said that there is no traffic jam, but in fact, when Master Li drove from Wanheyuan to outside the Sixth Ring Road, he happened to catch up with another wave of get off work.
So much so that by the time we returned to the rental company to hand over, the time had already reached seven o'clock. The winter snow on both sides of the road has not yet melted, reflecting mottled white under the street lights, which is cold and cold.
Song Tan was still frightened: "Fortunately, I don't live here, otherwise it would be terrible to go out..."
Qiaoqiao also stretched her legs and complained for the first time: "It's so tiring to ride in the car..."
Are you not tired? It still takes nine hours to drive back!
Song Tan looked at the back seat: "The noodles are already packed in bags and put in the trunk of the car. You can go to the back seat and sleep. You will be home soon when you wake up."
Qiaoqiao only slept for a few hours the first day, and she was really tired after running around all day long. He obediently waited for Song Tan to park the car and move to the back seat. At this moment, he looked at Song Tan worriedly:
“Sister, are you tired? Why don’t we stop the car and sleep.”
Song Tan laughed: "Sleep with you."
The car was parked to sleep...then why should she bother? It’s not like there are no hotels outside the Sixth Ring Road. The pig-killing feast is about to be prepared, and there are a lot of things to do at home!
The most important thing is that she doesn’t like bustling cities very much now!
In the back seat, Qiao Qiao lay curled up on her side, her breathing gradually becoming steady, while Song Tan stared ahead, feeling that she had lost all her spiritual energy in the past two days, and couldn't help but let out a deep breath.
There is no aura in the city, but the aura in the mountains and forests seems to be limited. Otherwise, it would have taken her two lifetimes to rebuild it, but although the progress was fast at the beginning, it has gradually stagnated now...
Perhaps, this is also the check and balance or limit of this world.
But it doesn't matter, Song Tan is very open-minded, and she is very satisfied that her family can live happily now. Although there is little spiritual energy, you can still make some progress if you accumulate it bit by bit over time.
If nothing else, I can definitely take care of my family.
In this case, what is there to feel uneasy about?
The car gradually got on the highway, and she lightly stepped on the accelerator, returning home like an arrow.
…
At Lao Song's house, everyone was warming up around the stove, while worrying about Song Tan and Qiao Qiao.
“I said I’ll be back tomorrow morning, why are you in such a hurry? It’s unsafe to drive late at night.”
Ulan muttered.
Song Sancheng also sighed: "Yeah, why are you taking Qiao Qiao? You might as well take me. I can change with her when I get tired from driving on the road."
Zhang Yanping was very relieved: "With Tantan's skills, she could drive so smoothly even on the broken roads in our village. Now that we are traveling on either national highways or expressways, it will definitely be smoother and fine."
But Mrs. Tang knew that Wu Lan was thinking about her child, so she interrupted: "Didn't it say that it's the end of the year and many people from the village have come back? Why do I feel like not many people have come back?"
Speaking of this, Wulan had something to talk about: "Teacher Tang, you don't know, now people in our village go out to work, and many factories don't want the older ones. What they want is usually the kind of factories that are eager to hire people."
“Unfortunately, the work in this kind of factory is very tight, and people are not released easily. They usually have to work until the end of the year before being released. I guess I just handed in my resignation letter at the end of last month—a month in advance.”
“If I have to leave, I’ll be in trouble with the salary and other things.”
"No!" Song Sancheng also sighed: "It's too difficult for us farmers to make money now - we don't have retirement wages, and no one else dares to go out to work now, for fear that if something goes wrong we won't be able to afford compensation."
"If I don't go to work and I can't bear to leave, I can only spend my time there." Old Mrs. Tang frowned. She had studied these things, but it was obviously not as intuitive as what others said face to face.
At this moment, I looked at the expressions of the couple, and then at Professor Song who was silent beside him, thinking that this old man has spent his whole life working in the fields, and now it seems that there are quite a lot of people he can help.
She reassured the two of them: "It's okay. When your business gets bigger next year, you will definitely need to recruit people from the village to help with the work. There will be a lot of jobs created."
"What's more, aren't we trying to propagate that strawberry in Tiantian's greenhouse? If possible, now that the road has been built, there are bold people who are willing to ask us to get some good seedlings to grow strawberries, and they can make some income."
She is older and has a strong aura. Now she speaks slowly and eloquently, but she has a gentle power that can penetrate people's hearts.
“Don’t worry, we are changing too fast day by day. Everything is done slowly and one by one.”
Ulan thinks so.
Cousin Seven did not leave tonight. He and Grandma Seven sat silently on one side. After listening to these words quietly, he suddenly said: "My son may be coming back."
“Huh?” Everyone was stunned.
Seventh Cousin's son...won't that always only be in legends? You haven't been back for so many years, why are you thinking so suddenly?
The seventh cousin looked at Wulan's surprised look and quickly explained: "Don't worry, I agreed to give the house to Tantan after we agreed. I won't change it."
At this time, Ulan, who was originally interested in the house, laughed directly:
"His cousin, what are you talking about? Our family doesn't lack that apartment now. I looked at Tantan and didn't want to live in the city at all. We just thought it was a joke at the beginning."
“Besides, doesn’t that house still meet the conditions?”
“My son is back, can’t he rent a house again? It’s not appropriate.”
She looked at her seventh cousin sincerely: "You can teach Qiao Qiao so well, we are already satisfied."
Among other things, Qiao Qiao's character has been developed so well because of his teacher Xin Jun and because his seventh cousin felt sorry for him.
Teaching everyone who needs to be taught, but I don’t even bother to scold him on weekdays. How could anyone else have the meticulous energy to teach him seriously?
Song Sancheng, on the other hand, started to worry: How will I explain to Hongmei later?
Didn’t Aunt Song Hongmei have her sights set on this house and want Tantan to get it?
Now that Leng Buding’s son is back, let Hongmei know about it so that they won’t quarrel!
The seventh cousin waved his hand.
“This has been agreed upon before. Don’t try to push it aside. I haven’t saved any money over the years. Buying another house like that won’t be a problem…”
Not to mention the past, even he now has a few thousand dollars a month and has no place to spend money at all. Does he care about this house?
not to mention…
The seventh cousin thought with a little pride: He is not the old man Li in the village.
Everyone says that only biological children are more reliable, but Old Man Li has not come back yet. I asked the seventh cousin to think about it. Living with his son in the city is probably not as good as in the countryside!
Old man Li didn't know it, otherwise why would he have given up all the rhubarb to Song Tan?
That was his partner for half his life. If he was really reliable, would he still be willing to let him go? It's nothing more than wanting to be close to children when I'm older, and just deceiving myself.
Update 1, this house is useful! It's just that the foreshadowing was left a little longer...
