Chapter 63: The Return Trip

After a good night's sleep, Guan Ping'an was awakened by the slight movement in a daze, only to see that her father had already put off the kang clothes, and there was even the sound of people moving outside.

She immediately got up and pushed her brother to wake up.

I can finally go back to the village!

is different from when he came, although Ye Xingwang worked the night shift last night and has not yet returned, the basket when he came was already full of large bags and small bags, and there was a big iron pot at the end.

I don't know if Guan Tianyou said that he leaked his mouth, this big iron pot is obviously new. Of course, people should not give away their old pots.

Guan Youshou didn't refuse anymore when he saw this, and secretly decided to wait until he went back to the post office where he bought some dry game or something, and his mother's gift was thinner.

Farewell, come back a year ago, say a word of cherishment, and finally embark on the journey home.

When I came, a car was crowded with passengers, and when I went back, the brother and sister didn't buy tickets, but there were still vacant seats, and they were locked up.

The first bus did take the right one.

The car stopped all the way, and it was almost noon when it arrived at the county seat.

This time, Guan Youshou still decided to take the children to the state-run restaurant to eat before leaving, otherwise he might not even be able to eat wild vegetables when he went back.

Not far from the state-run hotel is a shop selling daily necessities such as dustpans, baskets, some woven goods, and large and small tanks.

He first ordered a dish, a soup and ten Erhe noodles steamed buns, let the two children watch the luggage, and went to buy a basket and a flat shoulder.

In this way, even if he couldn't hitchhike on the way back to the village, he also planned to put the two children in a basket one after the other, and carry them with a flat shoulder.

Otherwise, let the two children walk so far, the calves must be wasted.

"Dad, come on. Guan Ping'an saw him come in with a flat basket, and didn't bother to ask the reason, waving his little hand to beckon.

Seeing this, Guan Youshou hurriedly glanced around the two brothers and sisters, and saw nothing abnormal, but he still ran to her quickly, "What's wrong?"

Guan Ping'an spread out two small red envelopes wrapped in red paper with a pair of small hands and showed him, stuffed them into his hands, and compared them with the red purse hanging around his neck, and explained to him, "Just now I wanted to hide the toffee in my brother's pocket, grab it with my hand, and grab these two red envelopes as soon as I catch it." ”

Guan Youshou nodded, and tore open the red paper casually, and the two red envelopes turned out to be a ten-yuan bill, which was undoubtedly for the two children.

Seeing this, he frowned.

This gift is too much.

He didn't give the Ye family's children, just because he was worried that if he could get more from his two children, otherwise he wouldn't have retreated while the two brothers of the Ye family were working.

Guan Ping'an recalled it and smiled clearly, "Dad, I think it must be when I change my clothes, and my aunt and grandmother stuffed money and sugar into it." Dad, what now?"

Guan Youshou glanced at the iron pot on the basket, shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, take it first, and when I go back, my father will buy more things and send them to them." ”

While speaking, one dish and one soup have been prepared one after another, and the master who cooks the vegetables inside shouted, he hurriedly put down the matter first and went to serve the dishes and get the steamed buns.

I don't know if I haven't eaten in a provincial hotel, compared to this restaurant in the county, the staple food is a uniform price, but the steamed buns are big and solid.

Just today's rare dish of meat, a large plate for one dollar, much more than the amount of a provincial restaurant, but the egg soup is exactly the same, which makes people suspect that these people in charge of the spoon are taught by a master.

After the grandfather had lunch, there was still more than half of the meat on a plate, it wasn't that they couldn't eat it, and they all thought about taking it back to Ye Xiuhe, who was staying at home alone, to taste.

This time, Mrs. Liu not only gave an iron pot, but also gave an aluminum lunch box and a military kettle, all three of which are rare, which can be regarded as solving the urgent need.

Just like Guan Ping'an, she secretly changed the water in the small gourd with a kettle, and along the way, she didn't know whether it was because of the water or the lack of passengers, and she didn't feel tired after getting off the bus.

At this moment, Guan Youshou used an aluminum lunch box to pack the rest of the meat.

After sorting out the luggage again, Guan Youshou put the few things that the team explained to buy and the ones that were ready to be hidden in a basket, and then put the old clothes and the Ye family's return gifts in another basket.

After tidying up, he put a pair of children in front of him and behind him, picked up his flat shoulder and left the restaurant.

Guan Ping'an dragged the basket rope, and the feeling of sitting in it and shaking was too amazing, and asked her if her father was tired for a while, and asked her brother if it was fun.

Guan Youshou, who was happy to bear the burden, laughed, and even quickened his pace, deliberately swaying with a sense of evil, and when he heard the exclamation and laughter of the two children, he forgot about the parents he was about to face for a while.

When I arrived at the entrance of the village, it was almost dusk, and I saw several children at the entrance of the village rushing home with baskets and baskets on their backs.

Now it is the spring ploughing period, and the adults have gone to work, and the household work, such as hunting pigweed, digging wild vegetables, and cooking, is undoubtedly entrusted to them.

And what he will face cannot be avoided.

Guan Youshou carried the burden and went to the direction of the production team's yard first, passing by Ma Zhenzhong's house halfway, turning into his yard first, and entering the outhouse.

Putting down the burden, he shouted again, but there was still no one.

Thinking about it, Ma Zhenzhong's father and mother live with their eldest son, and their husband and wife are busy making money and working, and several children are estimated to have gone to play and haven't come back yet.

He collected the remaining more than 650 cash and food stamps from his body, divided them into two, and hid them on the two children, not forgetting to whisper: "Go back to the house as soon as you get home, understand?"

Guan Ping'an wanted to ask, could it be that grandma would search your son, but considering that he could make his father have this scruples, maybe it was really possible?

She and Guan Tianyou nodded seriously.

Guan Youshou then took out the big bag and other bits and pieces and hid them in the utility room of Ma Zhenzhong's house, and covered them with a pile of straw rope and broken wood.

Finally, he checked the two baskets of things, and when he saw that there were no other problems, he readjusted, sat down in with the two children in his arms, picked up his burden again and left, and walked home at the fork in the road.

If you look closely, there are actually flaws. It stands to reason that after playing around from the provincial capital, as a child, you can't be happy, and Guan Tianyou's little face can make people suspicious.

But Guan Youshou had already thought of a reason to prevaricate. For example, the child's favorite toys are not happy if they don't have money to buy, such as motion sickness and discomfort, in short, there are many reasons.

The fence door of the courtyard of the Guan family was open, and Guan Youshou didn't say anything when he saw that there was movement inside, so he put down his burden and took out the two children not far from the outhouse.

"Third uncle, you're back. ”

Guan Youshou saw that it was Guan Xiaolan and Guan Xiaomei who came out, and smiled, "Are you at home?" Go and call your grandmother for the third uncle to come back early." ”

Guan Xiaomei pushed Guan Xiaolan, "You go, I'll help the third uncle." ”

Guan Youshou ignored the eldest niece's careful thoughts, and patted his son's buttocks, "The sugar has to be given to your grandma first, and you take your sister back to the room to sleep first." ”

Guan Ping'an hurriedly took his little hand and said dejectedly, "Dad, leave me a few more grains of sugar, I am reluctant to eat it." ”

"Sister, Dad will keep it for us. Guan Tianyou glared at Guan Xiaomei, and immediately ran back with Guan Ping'an: I really hate it!

"Third uncle, God bless me. ”

"Ignore that boy, I'll teach him a lesson. ”
