Chapter 406: Changed
After the by-products of the brigade were almost delivered to the commune, the tractor finally had to make a trip to the city.
It just so happened that Chen Dongfang and Bai Meilan's family were also going back to Quan City for the New Year, and everyone had something to talk about on the road.
Qiao Jiayue had been waiting for a long time, and immediately packed up some things and planned to go to Quanshi to see Cai Ping.
Maybe Cai Ping is old and may have forgotten everything in the Alpine Brigade, but Qiao Jiayue thinks that it is better to sleep together for a few years, and it is good to go over and take a look
If the relationship is estranged, there is nothing to be sad about, after all, in addition to family members, there are countless people who come and go in their lives.
Some have become memories, some have disappeared into the years, and some have become lifelong friends, better than relatives.
Cai's mother didn't recognize Qiao Jiayue for a while, "Xiaoyue, it's you? ”
Qiao Jiayue put her things down, "Hello Grandma Cai, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?"
"Thanks to you, it's not bad. Cai's mother took Qiao Jiayue's hand and looked left and right, and the more she looked, the more she liked it.
"Grandma Cai, where is Pingping?" Qiao Jiayue had been in for a while, but she didn't see Cai Ping, she felt a little strange.
Cai's mother sighed, "She went to her grandmother's house." ”
Hmm? Why did Cai Ping sigh when she went to her grandmother's house? Qiao Jiayue was puzzled.
"Pingping, she's changed a lot. Cai's mother pondered the words and said helplessly.
"After we took her back, her grandmother's house took her away, and she didn't know how to teach her, so she became more and more alienated from us. ”
"Now that she spends most of her time in the Bai family, it's rare for me to see her once a month. Cai's mother was so sad when she said it.
Qiao Jiayue was not very surprised, thinking that her daughter was still close to her mother after all, and it was not surprising that Cai Ping would alienate the people on her grandmother's side.
No wonder Cai Ming didn't mention Cai Ping last time he came to the team, he must have felt uncomfortable.
"As long as Pingping is happy, you don't need to be sad. Qiao Jiayue comforted Cai's mother.
Mother Cai just touched Qiao Jiayue's head, she was still young, how could she understand her feelings?
Cai Ping was born with her, but later had to be sent to Qiao's house because of changes in the family.
But after the family stabilized, she took it over as soon as possible, and she loved her a lot, after all, she was the only grandchild of the Cai family.
"That's it, don't mention these things, can you stay for a few days?" Cai's mother liked Qiao Jiayue when she saw it, it would be nice if it were her granddaughter.
It's annoying that the eldest son's heart hangs on the woman Baisha, and the second son doesn't want to get married.
"I'll just come over to see Pingping, and I'll have to go back in the afternoon. Qiao Jiayue said apologetically, "Why don't we go shopping in the department store together?"
"Okay, let's go now, I'll take you to the state-run restaurant for dinner. When Cai's mother saw Qiao Jiayue, she felt that it was not interesting for her to stay at home and feel sorry for herself, but it was important to make herself happy.
When passing by a post office, Qiao Jiayue subconsciously glanced inside.
Cai's mother misunderstood, thinking that Qiao Jiayue wanted to buy stamps, "Xiaoyue wants to buy stamps?"
Qiao Jiayue thought about it, and the stamps at home seemed to be running out, "Well, I want to buy a little, do you have more patterns to choose from for the stamps here?"
It was also after those educated youths came that Qiao Jiayue knew that the stamps could still be collected, and they were carefully packed one by one and then sandwiched in the book, which turned out to be very good-looking.
"It's a lot, so let's go in and buy some. ”
Xu Jia was sorting out the letters, and when someone came in, she raised her eyelids and glanced at them, and then stood up from her position suddenly, and brought the chair down because of the large range of movements.
The colleague next to him saw it and asked with concern, "Xu Jia, are you okay?"
Xu Jia shook her head, quickly picked up the stool, pulled down the hem of her clothes, and stepped forward to greet the two people in front of the counter.
It turned out to be Cai Ming's mother.
Could it be that she came to see herself? Xu Jia couldn't help but fantasize in her heart, she had waited for Cai Ming for so long, and she had become an old girl, and she still refused to give up.
Cai's mother smiled, looked at Xu Jia twice, and asked her to take out all the stamps.
Just like this, Xu Jia was excited, and he almost lowered the price.
Qiao Jiayue could faintly sense that Xu Jia's mood was a little excited, and she looked at it strangely.
Xu Jia's family is not very far from the Cai family, Xu Jia has never married, and it is also famous in the vicinity.
Cai's mother naturally knew about her, and this time she deliberately went around to the post office.
The more I look at it, the more I feel that this Xu Jiahe's eyes are many times better than the girl of the Bai family.
Cai's mother thought that Cai Ming must be forced to marry someone this year.
She smiled at Xu Jia and helped Qiao Jiayue choose stamps.
Xu Jia got Cai's mother's smiling face, and she was a little fluttery, almost turning over all the stamps in the post office, including the leftovers that were sold a few years ago.
Xu Jia's colleagues couldn't help but be a little strange, when did the staff at their post office have such a good attitude?
After buying the stamps, Cai's mother took Qiao Jiayue to the nearest state-run restaurant for dinner, "The braised pork here is well done, you can try it." ”
Qiao Jiayue nodded, and saw a somewhat familiar person sitting in the corner, well, it seems a little similar to Qiao Sigu?
After Qiao Wugu finished eating, she looked up and saw a girl looking straight at her, she was a little disliked, turned her head and gave the enamel jar to Chen Yuan who came out of the back kitchen.
"I'll go back to work first, think about it, if we don't go back, it's going to be the New Year, so let's get something good to replenish my son's body." ”
"Okay, I'll ask someone to see if I can go back with the tractor of the Takayama Brigade. ”
Chen Yuan didn't really want to go to the countryside, but now that the supply in the city was tight, and the state-run hotels were now stricter than before, he couldn't find a chance to go home with something at all.
And compared to the risk of losing your job, it seems that getting to the Alpine Brigade is not so difficult.
Fifth Aunt Qiao couldn't help but look at Qiao Jiayue twice before leaving, she remembered that she didn't know a girl of this age, nor was she from the Chen family, she definitely hadn't seen it.
Cai's mother ordered a good dish, and when she saw Qiao Jiayue grabbing the bag of her satchel and playing with it in the palm of her hand, she said, "Hungry, the dishes in the state-run restaurant are serving quickly." ”
As soon as Cai's mother finished speaking, the meal was delivered, Qiao Jiayue simply didn't think about Qiao Wugu's affairs, and concentrated on eating.
The food in the state-run restaurant tasted really good, Qiao Jiayue ate it with relish, and successfully supported herself.
After lunch, they went on to the department store.
"In the past, when the sun was still shining, I could still ask him for help when I bought some in-demand things, but now he has been transferred, which is a pity. ”
Cai's mother took Qiao Jiayue to walk around the two floors, and she didn't let go of every corner.
Qiao Jiayue herself is not short of money, if she has a fancy to buy it, she doesn't want Cai's mother to pay, Cai's mother no longer insists when she sees this.
