Chapter 87: The Dalin Family
After the heavy snowfall, the earth is covered in a thick layer of silver. The warm winter sun hangs in the air, leaking through the dry branches, bringing that gentle warmth. On a frozen dirt road, a young man and a woman walked side by side. And the young man was already full of luggage, and he was still walking briskly. Instead, the girl with empty hands stopped tired again.
"Wait!" Chu Yueting gasped, white mist rising between her mouth and nose, "How far is it?"
Jing Jian turned around, his face full of helplessness: "Miss, I have already asked you to wait in the county seat, but you don't listen? If the inquiry just now is correct, we should have walked more than ten miles, just halfway." Glancing at Chu Yueting, "Why don't we rest again?"
......
The lesson of blood is that sometimes you must not be soft-hearted to women.
For Chu Yueting's visit this time, no matter how careful she was, Jing Jian was still very grateful. Therefore, when Chu Yueting proposed that she wanted to play around, Jing Jian agreed. Send those extra luggage back to Huaqing's dormitory first. Anyway, Yu Hai won't go home during the winter vacation, and he is not afraid that no one will accept him. Then, he led Chu Yueting to the long-distance bus back to Qingdu.
In the following three days, he led Chu Yueting to visit all the major scenic spots in Qingdu and eat all kinds of local snacks and delicacies. After all, in his previous life, Jing Jian had played many times, so he could also be regarded as a qualified tour guide.
Feeling that Miss Chu had been served, Jing Jian was ready to part ways. Before the Chinese New Year, let Chu Yueting return to her home in the capital. And Jing Jian himself is also ready to seize the time and go to the home of his sacrificial comrade-in-arms Dalin. But I never expected that Chu Yueting at this time would have a moth.
Chu Yueting insisted on being with Jing Jian, and even said something "to see the place where the ancestors fought"? Jing Jian almost wanted to cry without tears: "Okay, the Dalin family is indeed in the old area, but now it is so poor and backward, what are you Miss Chu going to join in? Besides, the home in Dalin in the countryside is not a scenic spot at all, and this is not a red tourism?"
Then ...... was sprayed in the face by the classic answer: "I want you to care!"
If you don't have anything to say, just treat the passing year as a bad year and continue to be a nanny. The two of them took a train and then a long-distance bus to Dalin's hometown county, and after making some inquiries, they walked to Dalin's village. Originally, Jing Jian was afraid that Chu Yueting would work hard, so he asked her to stay in the county seat and wait, but she was sprayed again: "I want you to take care of it!", Jing Jian has completely lost his temper, so let's go......! I can't go up or down in this halfway.
I found a big stone on the side of the road, put on my luggage, helped Chu Yueting to sit down, and asked kindly, "Grandma, are you okay?"
Chu Yueting glanced at Jing Jian vigilantly: "I warn you, Jing Jian, don't think anything crooked." It's all your fault, what kind of roads are you picking?
Kindly, it was regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs: "Then drink saliva, do you want meat sandwich buns?" Eat more, and your body will be warmer." ”
"Don't. ”
"Then eat a few toffee, it's high in calories. It's really not good, when you're done, let's go back. ”
“...... Jing Jian. ”
"Huh?"
"I had a bad attitude just now, I ......"
"It's okay, it's really okay. They all went together together, with more encouragement and support. I can't really throw you down. Do you have that heart, but you don't have that guts?"
"Poof,...... Thank you!"
Jing Jian smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry! It's almost the New Year, and there must be more people entering the city." After a while, there will always be a car. I'll take you a little when the time comes. ”
"Hmm. ...... I knew that I was going to do that, so I would have found someone to get a trolley. Chu Yueting rubbed her calves and complained in a low voice.
Jing Jianjian looked at Chu Yueting immediately, was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help it: "You...... Do you have a relationship here? Why not?"
"Aren't you just afraid that your family will know?" Chu Yueting's face did not change.
"Damn!" Jing Jian was shocked, "Miss, you...... You didn't tell your family, "You're running away from home?"
"Did you leave a note? Anyway, I said I was looking for you. Chu Yueting was right.
"......" Jing Jian suddenly felt that his legs were weak, and the big iron pot on his back was really heavy enough.
"Hey, are you angry?"
“...... Dare to be angry, dare not speak!"
"Poof!"
......
Jing Jian's guess was right, and when it was close to noon, he finally passed by a mule cart. After saying hello, regardless of Chu Yueting's protests, he wrapped her tightly and stuffed her into the car. Along the way, the people rubbing the cart went up and down, and the mule cart was basically overloaded. I saw that the poor mule was tired and half dead, and finally came to the village of Dalin slowly.
Dalin's house is very easy to find, and his house is relatively new in the entire village. At that time, in the class, Dalin often showed off, saying that before he joined the army, he had just built this new house, and many of the jobs were done by Dalin himself. said that after he was discharged from the army, he could still mix a lot of tobacco and alcohol with this skill. Now, however, it's a matter of fact.
The courtyard door was not closed, Jing Jian and Chu Yueting slowly walked in: "Excuse me, is this Lin Rong's home?"
A young woman in patched clothes came out of the room, holding a two- or three-year-old girl in her arms, and looked at Jing Jian and the two of them suspiciously: "Excuse me, ...... are you?"
"My name is Jing Jian, and I am from the same class as Dalin. ”
"Eh, it's Brother Dajing. Sit down, you were often mentioned in Eiko's letters back then. ”
"Sister-in-law, are your aunts and uncles there?"
"Dad, Mom, Eiko's comrades-in-arms have come to see you. ”
......
As soon as he entered the house, he looked at the furnishings in the house, saw that the furniture was still relatively new, and saw that the inside and outside of the house were very clean, Jing Jian's mood was not bad, at least the life of the Dalin family was okay. So he was still in the mood, teased Dalin's daughter, and stuffed a piece of toffee into her mouth.
However, as soon as he walked into the bedroom, Jing Jian's face became gloomy. There was a strong smell of herbs in the bedroom, and Da Lin's mother was sitting on the bed, covered with several layers of quilts, tattered, short of breath, her face was white and her lips were purple, and she barely squeezed out a smile to Jing Jian. And Da Lin's father sat on the edge of the bed, and he didn't mean to stand up to greet him, but just smiled and beckoned to Jing Jian and the two of them: "Haha, come here, come here." The eyes are not good, let me take a look, you are Dajing, right?"
"Uncle, it's me, call me Xiaojian. Jing Jian hurriedly trotted over. Hold Dalin's father's hand. As soon as I glanced at it, I saw a bowl of multigrain paste on the side of the bed, without a trace of oil on it, "Uncle, your legs?"
"Little problem, old cold legs. Dalin's father said happily, and turned his eyes to look at Chu Yueting, "This is ......?" Meizi, quickly give Xiaojian's daughter-in-law a seat. ”
