I haven't seen it for so many years, and the two elderly people have been saying that they have been endless.
However, Mr. Wei also knew the purpose of his old friend's visit this time, and he got to the point soon: "Yiwen, stay here for one night, and I will accompany you personally tomorrow."
When it came to business, Mr. Gu was very excited: "Boyang, I appreciate your kindness. I won't live here anymore. I can't wait for a moment. If I didn't want to see you, I would have gone directly to you."
Mr. Wei could understand his mood: "Okay, then I'll let Wei Zi take you there."
Although they haven’t seen each other for more than 20 years, the two of them grew up together and their temperaments are very familiar.
The two of them were only a few days apart, and they had always called each other by their names since they were young. Wei Zi was Wei Fengyuan’s nickname, and their elders had always called him that.
Mr. Gu looked at Wei Fengyuan: "Wei Zi, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you this time."
Wei Fengyuan quickly waved his hand and said: "Uncle Gu, you are out of touch when you say this. If I hadn't been on a business trip some time ago, I would have gone there in person.
When I found out about this a few days ago, I wanted to ask for leave and go there, but my dad said that you would come over in the next few days, so he asked me to take care of my work first, so that I could go there with you in peace of mind. "
Mr. Gu naturally understood what his old friend meant: "Your father has a plan, and you are a grown man, so you can't be impulsive."
Wei Fengyuan nodded and said, "Indeed, I asked for leave in advance this time, so I'll be waiting for you."
It still takes more than ten hours to drive from Chongqing to there. Wei Fengyuan's wife is a little worried: "No matter how impatient you are, you must pay attention to safety and don't drive at night."
Xinyan understands people's worries: "Auntie, my driving skills are not bad, and I will switch driving with Uncle Wei. Don't worry, we must put safety first."
Chen Shifang knew that it was inappropriate for her to say this at this time, but she knew her husband too well. If her father-in-law hadn't stopped him before and asked him to take care of his work first and wait for Uncle Gu to come over, he would have been there long ago. Desperately, I went to find someone.
Now she was afraid that he would drive through the night without hesitation, just to see people earlier, but she was really worried about the eighteen bends of the mountain road here, so she said those words. Fortunately, this girl Xinyan is a transparent person. people.
So, I didn’t even bother to eat at Wei’s house, I just packed some and took it with me and set off.
The closer Mr. Gu got to the place, the more nervous he became. He didn’t know what happened to his son and why he appeared in that remote place.
After it was completely dark, they arrived at a county town they were passing through. Xinyan said to Wei Fengyuan who was driving: "Uncle Wei, find a place to live first, and we will go out to eat later."
Wei Fengyuan had been to this county town before, so he quickly arrived at the county guest house: "Comrade, help us open two rooms."
The staff member glanced at them, read the work ID and the letter of introduction, and handed over two keys: "Upstairs 203, 204."
Mr. Gu has no appetite: "Wei Zi, you take Yanyan to eat. I have no appetite, so I won't follow you."
Xinyan took Mr. Gu's arm and said, "Grandpa, how did you promise grandma before you went out that you would obey me in everything? If you don't eat well, your body will not be able to withstand it. We can't let the family worry about it." no?
Besides, you have confirmed that photo. You are very sure that it is your second uncle. He has been staying there all these years. Something must have happened. If you are not in good health, how can we take your second uncle back to Beijing? "
After listening to Xinyan's words, Mr. Gu nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. Let's go. Grandpa will go out to eat with you."
Seeing that grandpa listened, Xinyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There is a place to eat under the county guest house. Several people were a little absent-minded, so they were not in the mood to comment on the dishes. After filling their stomachs mechanically, they went back to the guest house early to wash up and rest.
The next day it was still dark, so the three of them got up.
When they went downstairs to have breakfast, there were no guests inside yet. After eating, Xinyan also packed some plain steamed buns and took them on the road, thinking that she could use them to fill her stomach when she was hungry.
It was Xinyan who was driving today. Wei Fengyuan was a little worried at first, fearing that Xinyan wouldn't be able to get used to the road conditions, but he didn't expect that the little girl's driving was no worse than him, so he felt relieved.
They didn’t stop to find a place to eat at noon, they just ate the packed vegetarian buns.
The closer the car got to that place, the heavier their hearts became. This place was really too remote.
Because the road conditions were not good and they took the wrong route several times, they wasted a lot of time going back and forth.
Finally, before the sunset completely set, they found the village.
