Seeing this, Qiao's mother no longer persuaded her, and got up to help put the glass bottle containing the meat sauce into a special small bamboo basket, stuffed with straw, so that she didn't have to worry about it being broken.

"Auntie, my third brother and I are gone, you and Abba have to take care of themselves. ”

Qiao Hongliang didn't say much, but just stuffed money and tickets into Qiao's mother's hands, "Auntie, you and Abba take care, we will come back next month." ”

Qiao's mother was helpless, every time Qiao Hongliang came back, he stuffed money and food stamps, and he would be angry when he returned it.

"You too, be nice and take care of yourselves on the outside. Qiao's mother patted the shoulders of the two children.

Time flies so fast, she can't even reach the top of their heads, the children just grow up, and they are old.

Qiao Jiayue and Qiao Hongliang packed everything into their suitcases.

This suitcase is a new suitcase with wheels that they saw at the Friendship Store, and when they came back, they drew a picture for Qiao Qi'an to make.

His craftsmanship is good, but the wheels he makes are big and the sound is not small when he drags.

But the wood used is good, lightweight, and very strong, at least in those places in Quanshi, they are really easy to carry these luggage.

As soon as the brother and sister walked out of the gate, they saw Qiao's father hurriedly walking along the path, his trouser legs were pulled up high, and there was mud on his feet, which showed how anxious he was, and he didn't have time to wash his feet.

"Abba. ”

Father Qiao came over and saw that the child hadn't left yet, so he couldn't help but smile and gasped twice, "Come, this is for you to eat on the way." ”

Qiao's father handed the two taro leaf packets in his hand to the two children, "Be careful on the road, if you don't work well, come back, there is no shortage of food at home." ”

"Abba, you have to pay attention to your body. Qiao Hongyuan pursed his lips and said.

"You still need to say that when you come back next month, you will be able to eat bayberry, and the newly planted bayberry will bear fruit this year. ”

Qiao Jiayue nodded vigorously, reluctant to part every time.

After a little more delay, the brother and sister walked to the team headquarters, and kept replying to the members' words along the way, and their faces were about to stiffen with smiles.

When she arrived at the team headquarters, Qiao Jiayue saw that there were already many people waiting there, so she immediately apologized first.

Everyone doesn't compare, in case someone is offended, what if Qiao Hongyuan doesn't give recruitment information in the future?

At this time, Chen Mian, who heard Qiao Jiayue's voice, poked his head out, "Sister Yue'er." ”

Qiao Jiayue walked over, "Have you made lunch?"

Chen Mian has also grown a lot, that is, thin, but very white, with a goose egg face, thin eyebrows and apricot eyes, and a small cherry mouth, quite like an ancient lady.

Bai Meilan loves this daughter very much, even if the Chen family wants Chen Mian to go to Quanshi and promise to help arrange work, she is not happy for her daughter to go back.

However, Chen Bai also entered the railway system under the arrangement of the Chen family, because his resume was not enough, he could only stay on the train first and come back once a month or two.

When he was resting, he would come to Qiao Jiayue's room to sit down, but he was more familiar than before.

"Not yet, Sister Yue'er, next time you come back, help me see if there are any music books in the bookstore, okay? ”

"That's fine, what instrument are you going to buy?"

"Well, harmonica. Chen Mian thought, lowered his voice and said, "I want to give it to Teacher Zhou,"

She has been studying with Zhou Wenhui for five years, and in addition to practice, it is unceremonious to say that Chen Mian's theoretical knowledge of music is very strong.

There are harmonicas and recorders on the part of the educated youth, and they often engage in activities, so it is relatively inconspicuous to send a harmonica.

Although for Zhou Wenhui, as long as there is a heart, anything can become a musical instrument, but how can those compare to real musical instruments?

"Okay, I'll take a look at it for you when I go to the department store, are there any special requirements?"

Chen Mian shook his head, "No, this is money, if it's not enough, please trouble Sister Yue'er to add it first, and I'll pay it back then." ”

As she spoke, she handed over a pale pink handkerchief bag containing money for a harmonica and books.

"It's okay, do you think there's anything else you want to buy?" Qiao Jiayue asked with a squint.

"No, Sister Yue'er, be careful on the road. Chen Mian said, glanced at the person on the other side of the tractor, and retracted back into the house.

Countrymen like strong and capable girls, and a weak and squeamish girl like Chen Mian will inevitably be taken out and said.

Since Qiao Jiayue went to the city, Chen Mian hasn't moved around the team much.

Qiao Jiayue smiled and walked to the tractor, the luggage had been carried up and placed on the inside.

The tractor has been used for so many years, and the noise when it starts is louder than ever.

The brigade headquarters also wanted to buy another one, but according to Qiao's father, it seemed that there was something wrong with the commune, so the matter was stopped.

Today's tractor just has to send a batch of by-products to the commune, and with the members rubbing the car, the car body is relatively crowded.

Qiao Hongliang sat on the wooden suitcase, patted his shoulder and said to Qiao Jiayue, "Yue'er, lean on me for a while." ”

Qiao Jiayue nodded, and staggered to the commune.

She jumped out of the car and walked slowly on the ground, her feet numb.

The two stood in front of the supply and marketing cooperatives with suitcases for a while, and immediately a young man came over.

"Hey, Xiaoliang and Xiaoyue, are you here, are you still the same?"

The person who spoke was a man from the commune street, named Su Qinghe, who had a bicycle at home and often did the work of a coachman.

Because there are no cars in many places, a bicycle carrying business has been derived, which is more common in other places, and Taoxi Commune has only appeared in recent years.

In the past two or three years, the management has been relatively loose, there are markets every month, and some members need to go to the market or relatives, so there are more customers to carry passengers by bicycles.

Su Qinghe and a few good buddies do this business together, and help each other, after all, sometimes you can't finish one trip.

Every time Qiao Jiayue and the others came back, they went directly to Su Qinghe's house to find him, and they were very familiar with him in the past two years.

"That's right, when are you free?" Qiao Hongliang nodded, when he was outside with Qiao Jiayue, he would talk more, after all, there was a difference between men and women.

He carried Qiao Jiayue by himself, and Su Qinghe brought the owner of another bicycle and some luggage.

Qiao Hongliang is very cautious, after all, his sister is old and must pay attention.

It's just that many years ago there was a lot of trouble, and men and women didn't dare to get close, let alone sit in the back seat of a bicycle.

"Do you have to wait a little longer, Lu Yan will go to his sister's place, will you be later, go to my house to sit for a while?" Su Qinghe said in a low voice, quickly glancing at Qiao Jiayue.

"Forget it, I'll take a look at the supply and marketing cooperative, just wait for you to come over. Qiao Jiayue shook her head.

Liu Dongyang had been transferred three years ago, and the new manager was okay, but not as flexible as Liu Dongyang.

In addition, there was a change in the leadership of the Commune, which was not a very pleasant event in any case.

Qiao's father didn't run to the commune much, after all, there were no acquaintances, and he didn't have to inquire about the news.

Seeing this, Su Qinghe didn't say anything more, and disappeared when he turned a corner.

The road from the commune to the county seat was much smoother than before, but it was not at all comfortable to sit on the back of a bicycle for so long.

After stopping to rest a few times, we finally arrived at the county seat, which was more lively and crowded than before.

At the station, many people with large and small bags were waiting for the bus.

When Qiao Jiayue and Qiao Hongliang arrived, many people took a few more looks.

Their clothes are not particularly conspicuous, but both men and women look good, and people can't help but take a few more looks.

The brother and sister have always sat in the back of the car, although the taste is not good, and it is more bumpy, but they basically do not squeeze with other people.
