Chapter 409: Fanwai 56
This is not far from Uncle Hu's hometown, more than two hours by car. Ren Niannian greeted Qi Qing when she left, and now that she is in chaos, it is normal for her to go to see Ren Tianxing, Qi Qing only told her to pay attention to safety on the road.
Ren Niannian simply responded and asked him to call her if he had anything.
She didn't bring anyone with her, she drove there alone. The car was very quiet, probably because it was a long-distance drive, and it was very cold. She turned on the radio and listened to the traffic radio.
The road out of the city has always been very congested, I don't know why, she suddenly remembered Yu Anhe at this moment. She was in a trance for a moment. The sourness and astringency came up densely.
Ren Niannian was distracted and almost crashed into the car in front of him. She hurriedly hit the steering wheel and narrowly avoided it. In the next time, she didn't dare to get distracted anymore and started driving seriously.
After the car left the city, it became smooth, and Ren Niannian followed the navigation all the way to the fishing village of Uncle Hu's hometown. This side is near the sea, and there is a salty smell of the sea floating in the air. Because of the rain, the roads on both sides were wet.
It was inappropriate for Ren Niannian to come over rashly, and he hurriedly bought a gift in a small supermarket at this time. She didn't call her father, but called Uncle Hu. I plan to surprise Ren Tianxing.
Uncle Hu was surprised to hear her coming, and after asking her location, he asked her to wait where she was, and he came over immediately.
The village is crisscrossed with small roads, and those who are not familiar with it will go the wrong way if they are not careful. Ren Niannian waited in place for about ten minutes, and saw Uncle Hu limping over from the path.
Ren Niannian had been paying attention to it, and then quickly opened the car door and got out of the car.
Uncle Hu saw a smile on her face and asked, "You kid, why did you come over without saying hello?"
Ren Niannian didn't say that it was because he was worried about Ren Tianxing, smiled, and said, "I miss you, it's okay, so I'll come over and have a look." ”
The smile on Uncle Hu's face was even stronger, and he said, "Your father just transferred a big fish this morning, and I will let Uncle Hu show you his hand later and make you a fish hot pot to eat." ”
Ren Niannian was very enthusiastic, made a little greedy cat, and said, "Then I'll wait for Uncle Hu to show your hand." ”
Uncle Hu's house was still at the end of the village, he got into the car and commanded Ren Niannian to shuttle on the trail. It wasn't long before the car drove forward to a small courtyard surrounded by a fence. Because there is no one to live in all year round, it looks crumbling.
Uncle Hu hurriedly went over to pick her up, and before he told Ren Tianxing, he said with a smile: "It's in the courtyard in front, drive in directly." Your dad didn't know you were coming, and he would be shocked if he saw you. ”
After all, I only called a few hours ago, where did I think she would come.
Ren Niannian got out of the car with the gift and followed Uncle Hu into the house. Ren Tianxing was still at home just now, but he didn't know where he was at this time. However, the old lady next door who Uncle Hu invited to cook was still there, probably guessing Ren Niannian's identity, and said with a smile: "The old gentleman went out just now, saying that he was going to go shopping and see if anyone was playing chess." ”
Uncle Hu said to Song Yu at this time: "You wait here, I'll call your father back." ”
As he spoke, he was about to go outside.
Ren Niannian hurriedly put down his things, chased after him quickly, and said with a smile: "I'll go with you." It is just a good place to shop. ”
She had only been driving for a few hours, and Uncle Hu was afraid that she would be tired. Seeing that she was in good spirits, he nodded and said, "Your father is just ahead." There are often people playing cards and chess under the old locust tree over there, and your dad must be over there. ”
The two walked outside together, because his legs and feet were not good, and Ren Niannian specially slowed down. Surveying around, asking about things she hadn't seen before.
Lao Hu answered them all one by one.
Sure enough, from a distance, I saw Ren Tianxing playing chess with others under the locust tree. The weather was cold, and a prosperous fire was built under the locust tree with dry firewood, but he was not afraid of the cold.
Seeing Lao Hu appear with Ren Niannian, everyone greeted one after another.
Ren Tianxing was startled when he saw Ren Niannian, stood up without playing chess, and asked, "Why did you come here?"
Ren Niannian smiled and said, "Isn't this missing you? I don't know when you will be willing to go back, so I will come to see you." ”
In the end, her daughter is still more important than chess, Ren Tianxing didn't play chess anymore, she confessed to her chess friends, and led Ren Niannian to go back. As he walked, he asked, "Why don't you call first?"
He came over without saying a word.
Ren Niannian didn't say that he was improvised, and said with a smile: "I want to surprise you." Surprise, right?"
Ren Tianxing knocked on her head lightly and heavily, he knew why she came, and said, "I told you that I was very good here, and you still have to come." Tired of driving for so long, aren't you?"
The old lady next door who invited her to cook was clever, and when they went out, she had already made a good meal, and when she heard them come back, she began to cook noodles. As soon as they entered the house, they said, "I've cooked noodles, Miss Ren will eat some first, and I'll cook right away." ”
Ren Tianxing glared at Ren Niannian and said, "Don't bother with her, let her be hungry." ”
The old woman smiled and went to cook noodles.
It didn't take long for the fragrant noodles to be served, and a plate of emerald green pickled melons was served.
Ren Tianxing asked Ren Niannian to sit down, and said to her: "Try this pickled melon made by your Aunt Zhu, it is very appetizing." If you like it, when you go back, ask your aunt to pack some and bring it back. ”
He hadn't lived such a leisurely life for many years, and he was very comfortable here. I also like the fruits and vegetables grown by the farmers here. The amount of food is larger than when you are at home.
Ren Niannian responded and picked up the chopsticks. I ate a piece of pickled melon first. The pickle melon is very crisp, sour and slightly spicy, and it is really appetizing.
Seeing that Ren Tianxing was looking at her like a child, she nodded vigorously and praised: "It's delicious." As he spoke, he ate another piece.
Ren Tianxing laughed and said, "Come on, eat noodles first." Don't eat the noodles for a while, so you finish the hors d'oeuvre. ”
Aunt Zhu laughed when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "There is another jar, Miss Ren can eat it, and I will bring it from home after eating." ”
Ren Niannian responded and thanked her. She wasn't really hungry, but when she saw Ren Tianxing looking at her, she still ate a bowl of noodles and a small plate of pickled melons.
After eating the noodles, Aunt Zhu washed a few more pears and sent them up, saying that the pears on their tree had thin skin and juicy water, and they were very sweet, so let her try them.
The names of the villages here are all simple and welcoming, no wonder Ren Tianxing is reluctant to go back when he stays here.
After eating and drinking, Ren Tianxing asked Ren Niannian to take a rest. Ren Niannian said that he was not tired and refused. Seeing that they were ready to deal with the big fish that Ren Tianxing caught in the morning, they also followed them to the backyard to join in the fun.
The father and daughter hadn't seen each other for a while, and Ren Tianxing was babbling some interesting things here. Ren Niannian listened with a smile, echoing the last two sentences from time to time.
At night, I ate the fish hot pot that Uncle Hu said, and it was up to him. The fish fillets were cut thinly, and Aunt Zhu also made fish balls with the fish meat that had been stripped of the spines, which was very fresh.
Because Ren Tianxing's body can't drink, but no one drinks. Only drinks were drunk.
With the arrival of Ren Niannian, this house is much more lively. After the dinner was over, Aunt Zhu returned home, and Ren Tianxing asked, "What's going on over there in Baicheng?"
Lu Chi is not here, and he doesn't have to think about it to know that Baicheng must be in chaos. Otherwise, Ren Niannian would not have made this trip. But with Qi Qing here, he wasn't worried.
Ren Niannian didn't want him to worry about anything, and said lightly: "It's okay." Qi Qing instructed the people below to keep a low profile recently. Avoid it. ”
Ren Tianxing nodded appreciatively and said, "Qi Qing did the right thing. He couldn't help but sigh as he remembered the scenery of the past. In the past, the brothers in the gang would have used their tails to be people.
The glory is all in the past, he sighed and fell silent.
Neither of them spoke for a while, but sat like that. After a while, Ren Tianxing came back to his senses and said, "You have to let Qi Qing keep an eye on the Lu family's side, just in case they have any moths." ”
He has dealt with the Lu family for so many years, so he naturally knows what kind of people the two father and son of the Lu family are.
Ren Niannian nodded and said yes. She looked at her father through the heat of the teacup, who was doing well, with a ruddy complexion and a much less sickly look on his face.
In this way, she was much more relieved, and no longer mentioned the affairs of the gang, and the gossip between the father and daughter became commonplace.
It wasn't as spacious as her home, and the rooms here were limited, so she was placed in the room at the very end. The room has not been lived in for a long time, although the bedding is new, it still feels a little damp, and Ren Niannian can't sleep when he lies on it.
I don't know how long she lay down, but she was about to fall asleep when her phone vibrated with a whining. At this time, I didn't know who called, Ren Niannian filmed out the phone, the phone was an unfamiliar number, she looked at it and picked it up.
As soon as he was fed, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, "It seems that Miss Ren hasn't slept yet." ”
His voice was low, and it seemed to have a smile.
It turned out to be Lu Chi who called, and Ren Niannian's body instantly stiffened. But not surprised. She knew that Lu Chi couldn't finish the game so easily.
But she regretted answering the call, she couldn't have imagined that Lu Chi would call her when the people on his side were looking for him to find someone to turn over.
She wanted to pretend to be stupid and ask who it was, but before she could pretend to be stupid, Lu Chi continued: "Miss Ren won't fail to hear who I am, right?"
There was a consistent conceit in his tone.
Ren Niannian didn't know what he was calling, but she couldn't afford to offend him, so she had to call Lu Shao honestly. She had her own careful thoughts, and she didn't ask Lu Chi what he was calling for. It's not always okay to talk to her.
Lu Chi didn't go around the bend with her, said a place name, and said, "I need Miss Ren's help, please come over immediately." Isn't Miss Ren going to show loyalty to me? Now it's time for you to show your loyalty. ”
Tiger fell Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, he reached this point, and he still didn't know how to restrain as before.
When he said this, Ren Niannian obviously couldn't refuse. But just such a threat to Lu Chi obviously didn't feel enough, and after a pause, he continued: "Of course, Miss Ren can also sell me as soon as she changes hands." However, Miss Ren has to think about the consequences of selling me. ”
Obviously quite nervous, he actually laughed as he spoke.
Ren Niannian's body instantly stiffened.
After Lu Chi finished speaking, he continued: "You come alone, it's best not to tell anyone." He didn't wait for Ren Niannian to speak, and hung up the phone directly after speaking.
Ren Niannian looked at the faint light emitted by the mobile phone screen, and his fingers clenched unconsciously. Whether she wants it or not, she's going to have to make this trip.
Lu Chi is in danger now, and she will definitely not be able to come back for the time being. The most important thing is that she went out at night so much, and she definitely couldn't leave quietly. Her father and Uncle Hu must have to worry.
Ren Niannian had a headache, and with excuses in his mind, he got up and put on his clothes.
It was quiet outside, and she didn't bother her father, but knocked on Uncle Hu's door.
Uncle Hu opened the door after a while, and was a little surprised to see her neatly dressed, and asked, "Are you going to leave now?"
He was worried.
Ren Niannian deliberately made a relaxed look and said, "There is something temporary, you don't have to worry." I'll tell you, tomorrow my dad gets up and you tell him I'm gone. ”
Lao Hu glanced at Ren Tianxing's room, nodded and said yes.
Ren Niannian said at this time: "You go to sleep, I'll go." ”
Lao Hu was worried and said, "I'll send you out." ”
Ren Niannian wanted to refuse, but he was afraid of waking Ren Tianxing, so he didn't refuse in the end, and the two went out quietly together.
Ren Niannian quickly started the car and said to Lao Hu: "Go back to sleep, I'm leaving." Don't worry, I'll text you when it's time. ”
Lao Hu nodded and said yes. insisted on watching her car disappear into the night at the door, and then quietly returned to the house.
Ren Niannian is not familiar with the road here, but fortunately, there is navigation. Lu Chi's place is a small mountain village, and I don't know where he got his mobile phone to make the call. When she called again, she couldn't get through.
The car drove for about two hours before it reached the ground. It was quiet all around, and from time to time there was the sound of dogs barking. Ren Niannian parked the car at the intersection and waited for the landing to come out by himself.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the phone rang again. This time the call was still unfamiliar, Ren Niannian picked it up and fed it.
"Miss Ren came here alone?" Lu Chi asked.
"Yes. Ren Niannian replied.
Lu Chi didn't ask much, he should know where she was, and said, "Keep going, about a thousand meters to the upper path." Stop when you see a thatched hut. ”
Ren Niannian responded and started the car again.
The path narrowed, and the closer you got to the village, the more lively the barking of the dogs became. Probably they were used to it, but no villagers got up to see it.
Ren Niannian walked up the road as Lu Chi said, and parked the car in front of a grass hut.
The grass house was pitch black, Ren Niannian became vigilant, and after getting out of the car, he stood in front of the car and called Lu Shao. Her voice was low, and she held the dagger tightly in her hand for fear of being trapped.
She didn't react after she called, and when she suspected that Lu Chi was not here, a weak voice came from the haystack on the side: "Come here." ”
The voice was Lu Chi's, Ren Niannian hesitated for a moment and walked over.
With the faint light of her mobile phone, she saw Lu Chi behind the haystack at a glance. He looked a lot more embarrassed than the last time he was in the mountains. It looks like he's been injured a lot.
"It's coming pretty fast. He said, then asked, "Did you bring anything to eat?"
Ren Niannian didn't think of anything to eat at all, but she came to the car and put some water and bread, so she replied, "There is water and bread." ”
There were also some drinks that she bought as gifts and forgot to bring them out of the car.
Lu Chi didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten, but he didn't dislike it at all, and said, "Take it." ”
It was windy at night, but the haystacks blocked some of the wind. Ren Niannian nodded in response, thought for a while, and then asked, "Do you want to go to the car to eat?"
It's better to be warmer in the car.
"No, I don't. Lu Chi directly refused.
Ren Niannian didn't talk much nonsense now, and went back to the car to get something. She was a little puzzled, and she didn't know where Lu Chi got her mobile phone to call her. She didn't ask anything, though.
Although I was very hungry, I didn't know if it was difficulty swallowing or something. Lu Chi ate very slowly, he would drink a sip of water after two bites, and he didn't eat much bread and a bottle of water before he drank it in a short time.
When he was eating, Ren Niannian stood silently on the side, didn't turn on his phone, and stayed in the dark. After staying in the dark for a long time, it is not completely dark, and I can barely see what is around me.
Lu Chi didn't eat anything more after drinking the water, he closed his eyes and leaned on the haystack not knowing what he was thinking. Ren Niannian waited for him to open his mouth to command, and he didn't speak.
After a while, Lu Chi asked, "Is there medicine in the car?"
Who will put medicine in the car? Ren Niannian shook his head and said no. After speaking, he added: "I came out in a hurry, and I forgot to bring it out." ”
Lu Chi also stopped talking, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he said, "Help me up." ”
Ren Niannian nodded and stepped forward to help her. She originally thought that Lu Chi would have some strength to get up on her own, but she couldn't help herself up with this help.
She couldn't help but be stunned at this time, and wanted to ask where Lu Chi was injured. But in the end, I didn't ask. It's just that I squatted shorter, and I used a little more strength when I went to help. This time, Lu Chi was moved, but it still took a lot of effort for the two of them to stand up.
