Chapter 492: It's All Good Stuff
"Uh!" Ye Lin paused for a moment, not understanding what the situation was, but he quickly shook hands with the old man and said, "Hello old man, is this Xiling Village?"
"Yes, yes, this is Xiling Village. The old man replied as he glanced at Ye Lin's jeep.
Although the old man also looked at the jeep in his eyes, he didn't keep staring at the jeep like everyone else, needless to say, he must have seen it before.
"Great, it's finally here. Ye Lin punched with his left hand and said with his right hand.
"Comrade, you came to our village ......"
"Hello uncle, where does Wu Lei's family live?"
Wu Lei is already married here, and of course there is his home here, so there is nothing wrong with Ye Lin asking this.
"Are you here to find Wu Lei?"
"Yes. Ye Lin nodded hurriedly.
After receiving Ye Lin's affirmation, the old man looked at Ye Lin carefully and asked, "What are you looking for Wu Lei?"
"Ugh!"
The old man's question made Ye Lin pause, he didn't understand why the old man asked like this, according to normal speaking, if the old man knew where Wu Lei lived, he should show him the way, or take himself over, why did he ask this.
"Old ...... Boss, is that you?" At this moment, a man who looked to be in his thirties squeezed in from outside.
Hearing his words, Ye Lin paused for a moment and called out to his boss, it seems that there should be only one person here, that is Wu Lei, but when he looked at this man again, he was dark and wearing a white undershirt unique to the Great Northwest.
"Boss, it's really you. Wu Lei came up and hugged Ye Lin, and immediately cried.
"Boss, boss, you're finally here. â
Ye Lin pushed Wu Lei away, looked at it carefully again, and asked in disbelief, "You...... How did you become like this?"
I haven't seen him for more than ten years, Ye Lin's change is not very big, but Wu Lei's change is too big, he used to be white and pure, but now he is dark, and he can still find a little shadow of the past.
"I ...... I ......" Wu Lei choked up and couldn't speak.
However, Ye Lin can see that Wu Lei has suffered a lot over the years, in fact, this is normal, and there are a few people who go to the mountains and go to the countryside who have not suffered.
"Wu Lei, he is ......" The old man next to him asked at this time.
"Uh!" Wu Lei hurriedly wiped his tears, pulled Ye Lin and said to the old man: "Dad, let me introduce you, this is my eldest brother." â
"What, you...... Your eldest brother?" the old man looked at Ye Lin in surprise.
No way, Ye Lin is too young, he looks like he is twenty-one or twelve years old, and this is still too old, and looking at Wu Lei again, it looks like thirty-four or five.
"Hmm. Wu Lei nodded, and then said to Ye Lin: "Big brother, this is my father and the party secretary of this village. â
Ye Lin still didn't understand at this time, it turned out that the old man in front of him was Wu Lei's father-in-law, no wonder he asked Ye Lin those questions.
"Uncle, you [] Okay, I was rude just now, please forgive me. â
"It's okay, it's okay, walk home. â
"Alas, uncle, get in the car and help me show the way. â
"Ahh......h Can I get on?" the old man glanced at the jeep and asked Ye Lin uncertainly.
"Why not, let's go, it's okay. â
"Daddy, sit here. Wu Lei hurriedly ran over and opened the co-pilot's door, and then said to his father-in-law.
Wu Lei helped the old man into the car, and then opened the back door and went up, Ye Lin also got into the cab at this time, and said to Wu Lei's father-in-law: "Uncle, you show me the way." â
"Hey, okay, keep going. â
Seeing Wu Lei's father-in-law get into the car, the people around the car hurriedly gave way out, and with Wu Lei's father-in-law to guide the way, ten minutes later, the jeep stopped in front of a yard.
No way, the road is too poor, the car is not as fast as walking, and the people who followed behind followed until they came to the courtyard, did not step forward, nor did they leave, Ye Lin knew that they were rare jeeps.
As soon as the jeep stopped, a woman in her thirties came out of the yard, followed by a man, a woman and two children.
Seeing Wu Lei get out of the car, the two children hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Dad." â
"Hey. Wu Lei squatted down and picked up the little girl.
"Grandpa. The little boy ran to the old branch letter and shouted.
"Hey. The old branch secretary picked up the little boy.
"Daddy. The woman in her thirties shouted when she saw the old branch secretary, no need to ask, she is Wu Lei's lover and the daughter of the old branch secretary.
"Big brother, let me introduce you. Wu Lei hurriedly ran to his wife with the little girl in his arms and said, "This is my lover." â
"Hello brother and sister. Ye Lin nodded to Wu Lei's lover.
"This is my eldest brother. Wu Lei said to his lover.
"Hello big brother. â
Although it is only nominal, Ye Lin is also considered a big uncle, so he didn't shake hands, just nodded to each other, if it is better in later generations, this era is still relatively feudal.
"Come to the girl, call uncle. Wu Lei said to the daughter in his arms.
"Uncle. â
"Hey, that's good. Ye Lin pinched the little girl's face, quickly turned around and came to the front of the car, opened the back door, took out a packet of toffee from it, opened it and handed it to the little girl and said, "Come, eat candy." â
The little girl didn't answer, but looked at her father first, and then at her mother.
"Uncle will give it to you. Wu Lei said beside him.
The little girl took the candy at this time, and then handed it to the little boy who was carried by the old branch secretary, and then said to Wu Lei: "There are cigarettes in the car, you go and distribute them to everyone." â
"Oh, good big brother. â
Wu Lei hurriedly put the little girl down, then walked to the front of the car, and took out a cigarette from the car, of course, it was still the big front door, which can be regarded as a good cigarette in DìDū, let alone here.
When the old branch secretary, that is, Wu Lei's father-in-law, saw the big front door that Wu Lei took out of the car, his eyes lit up, but when he saw Wu Lei tearing it open and giving everyone a cigarette without saying a word, his face was distressed.
"Brother and sister, there is a lot of candy in the car, you go and send some to those children, bring more, send more. â
"Oh, good big brother. Wu Lei's daughter-in-law agreed, and also went over to pick up a bag of candy and send it to the children who came with her.
Whether it's the person who got the cigarette or the child who got the candy, they didn't leave, no way, this jeep is really rare, they may not understand why these four-wheeled things go on their own.
To put it bluntly, it is because this place is too remote and too backward, it is estimated that this village has seen a little bit of the world except for the old branch secretary, and no one else has even been to the county seat.
Wu Lei's daughter-in-law came back and said to Ye Lin after sending out the candy: "Big brother, please come in, go and rest first." â
"Hmm. Ye Lin nodded, then turned back to the old branch secretary and said, "Uncle, please first." â
"Please. â
When he went in, Ye Lin turned back to Wu Lei and said, "Bring in all the things in the car." â
"Okay big brother, you go in, I'll move. â
Ye Lin brought a lot of things, four bags of 50 catties of white noodles, two bags of 100 catties of rice, 10 catties of beef and mutton, 50 catties of pork, some cigarettes and liquor, and various snacks and sugar cubes.
Fortunately, Ye Lin only took it out before entering the village, otherwise it would be even more difficult to pull so many things.
When he came to the yard, Ye Lin found that this house was very dilapidated, and the house was also an adobe house, and the branch secretary's family was like this, let alone other people's homes.
There was an old lady sitting in the room who was doing needlework, needless to say, this must be Wu Lei's mother-in-law, and there was a woman who looked to be in her thirties next to her, this Ye Lin didn't know who it was.
Seeing Ye Lin enter the house, the old lady and the middle-aged woman hurriedly stood up.
The old branch secretary came over at this time and said, "This is Lei Zi's eldest brother. â
"Ahh â
Whether it was a middle-aged woman or an old lady, they didn't understand how Ye Lin was Wu Lei's eldest brother at such a young age, but they still warmly asked Ye Lin to sit down.
"Thank you. Ye Lin nodded.
"Big brother, this is my mother. Wu Lei's daughter-in-law pointed to the old lady.
"Hello aunt. â
"Hello, hello. â
"Big brother, this is my sister-in-law. â
"Hello sister-in-law. â
"Hello. â
As soon as Ye Lin sat down, the old man looked at him and asked, "Child, how old are you?"
This old lady is really direct, if you have doubts, you have to ask, no way, Ye Lin is too young, and he doesn't look like Wu Lei's brother so soon.
"Auntie, I'm thirty. Ye Lin is not wrong to say so, the countryside prefers to say that he is twenty-nine years old, and he is not thirty years old.
"Ahh......h Are you really thirty?"
"Of course. Ye Lin nodded affirmatively.
Although Ye Lin was confirmed, the old lady still had questions, and just when she wanted to ask something more, Wu Lei's lover said: "Mom, the eldest brother is Lei Zi's eldest brother, of course he is older than Lei Zi." â
At this time, Wu Lei carried a bag of rice on one shoulder and a bag of flour on the other, and he didn't look struggling.
This also surprised Ye Lin, you must know that although Wu Lei has practiced with him, he has practiced all about fighting, and has never practiced strength.
If he hadn't come here before, it is estimated that even if he could carry so many things, he would definitely not be so easy, and it seems that he has worked hard all these years.
Seeing Wu Lei coming in with something on his shoulder, his daughter-in-law hurriedly stood up to pick it up, and asked as she picked it up, "What is this?"
"The rice and noodles that my eldest brother brought. â
"Ahh â
"There's still one in the car. Wu Lei put his things down, and then ran out again.
This is all good things, it is estimated that this village will not be able to take out so much white flour together, let alone rice, because there is no rice produced here at all.
To grow rice, you first need water, and here in the northwest is dry all year round, and there are not a few rains a year, how can you grow rice.
"Big brother, you talk to my dad in the house, and I'll go and help Lei Zi get something. Wu Lei's daughter-in-law felt sorry for her husband and said to Ye Lin.
