Chapter 712: Road Encounter
Lin Zhiyuan's eyes were red, there was water in his eyes, the old man was talking, suddenly silent, he lowered his head, patted Lin Zhiyuan's back, and said, "Let's go, do a good job." β
The voice was as low as a mosquito, but with some noticeable tremors.
After speaking, he took the lead in turning around, step by step, and walked back with extraordinary seriousness. Walking less than five steps away, he turned his back and waved his hand lightly.
Lin Zhiyuan squatted down violently, holding his head, and choked lowly.
Cheng Man stood beside him, silently watching the old man's distant back, and for a while, the resentment against his in-laws seemed to have become undetectable.
Lin Wei took Lin Guo by the hand and stood three or four meters away from them.
She didn't expect the old man to be so neat, and before they could get to him, he had already turned away.
Didn't even have time to say goodbye.
"Dad?"
Lin Guo let go of Lin Wei's hand and ran to Lin Zhiyuan's side, standing helplessly for a while before shouting.
Daddy was crying.
She wanted to cry too.
Lin Wei looked at it, and suddenly felt that she might be the most cold-hearted person, because she heard her own mouth say: "It's just a temporary separation, and you can come back at any time if you want to come back in the future." β
After a period of silence, Lin Zhiyuan stood up and walked forward first.
Lin Wei saw him in the back and wiped his face without a trace.
Lin Guo followed closely behind Lin Zhiyuan, looking at him nervously.
"Mom, this isβ"
Lin Wei lagged behind Lin Zhiyuan and Lin Guo by some distance, and asked Cheng Man slightly sideways, "My dad he-"
"Alas!"
Cheng Man sighed heavily, "Do you say this person is strange? When he was in front of him, he didn't seem to see it, and he couldn't show that a person was good at all." It's leaving, and even a small gesture can make people want to give up all their grievances......"
Lin Wei listened quietly.
After Cheng Man finished speaking, he seemed to be recalling something, and finally sighed, "Your grandfather, I guess I got up early in the morning, and I just want to come over and send some money to us to live in the capital......
When she was leaving, she was afraid that her mother-in-law and sister-in-law would have something wrong, so she didn't say the specific address to the old couple, only the jurisdiction of the police station.
Now it seems that the old man is like this, she has some bad feelings in her heart, and she always feels a little guilty.
The old man came to send money?
Lin Wei was a little incredulous, because of the angle problem, she didn't see this incident just now.
When his father Lin Zhiyuan secretly wiped his face just now, the light blue, neatly folded handkerchief in the other hand was the money given by the old man?
No wonder she felt that something was wrong, no one would be able to bulge like this if they folded a few layers of handkerchiefs, unless something was placed in them.
Nowadays, people do not have the habit of using money wallets, especially ordinary people, most of them use handkerchiefs as money wallets, and the usual money or something is flattened and put inside.
Seeing that Cheng Man was a little depressed, Lin Wei hugged her, "Mom, there is a postal service now, if you feel sorry for it, then if you feel good in the future, buy some for my grandfather and send it back." Or, when you and my dad feel that the hotel is on the right track, send some money to my grandfather, which is not a trouble. β
"You see, grandpa lives in the town, and there is a phone in the town, so it will be easy to contact when the time comes. Phone bills or something, you and my dad are so hardworking and capable, are you afraid that you can't afford it?"
Lin Wei said and walked, and when he arrived in front of the car, Cheng Man's mood also eased.
got into the car and saw that everyone was seated, Lin Wei patted the iron fence on the side of the car, "Uncle Wang, let's drive." β
"Okay, sit down, wait for a corner in a while, you hold on!" Wang Lukuan shouted, started the car, and drove forward.
Lin Zhiyuan seemed to be a little relieved, lowered his head, clenched his fists, and did not speak.
Seeing this, Grandma Cheng and Cheng Liang didn't speak, but their eyes exchanged with Cheng Man, and when they saw that there was nothing wrong, they no longer cared about it, but closed their eyes to recuperate.
Lin Guo was quite happy at first, but when the car gradually moved away from the town, she finally couldn't help but bury her head in the crook of Lin Wei's arm.
Is this sentimental?
Lin Wei patted her on the back and said softly, "Let's sleep for a while." β
It's not a train, so this car didn't stop except for a few times to refuel on the road, and a few times to eat and rest temporarily.
When it was time to eat again, Wang Lukuan found a flat place to park the car, and Cheng Man and Grandma Cheng came down with pots and small boards.
Cheng Liang found a few larger stones nearby, placed them, put the pot on them, and made a simple stove.
There were three thermos in the car, one for hot water and the other two for cold. Hot water is used for drinking, and cold water is used for cooking.
Lin Wei and Lin Guo came down, took the two hot water bottles handed over by Lin Zhiyuan, and went to the stove.
Grandma Cheng had already taken a slice of salted meat on the board, Cheng Liang lit the fire, Cheng Man soaked the fungus and mushrooms, and turned around and went back to get a handful of sauerkraut.
In the past few days, they have been eating like this, a hodgepodge, one bowl per person, and some cakes in it, saving trouble and water.
Lin Wei and Lin Guo followed Lin Zhiyuan to inspect the side to see if there were any wild vegetables, and if there were, it could be regarded as adding a touch of color to the hodgepodge.
Wang Lukuan walked back and forth on the side of the car.
He's in charge of watching the car, so there's nothing else to do. It's also because he's the only one driving, so everyone wants him to take a break.
"Help, help!"
Suddenly, a hoarse and crying voice sounded.
This was followed by the sound of sudden brakes.
Lin Wei's cooking place was not far from the place where Wang Lukuan parked, and when they heard this shout, everyone looked at the source of the sound nervously.
Grandma Cheng directly picked up the kitchen knife, Cheng Man slowed down and picked up a stone, Cheng Liang and Lin Zhiyuan reacted quickly, and Cheng Liang ran to Wang Lukuan's side at once.
Lin Zhiyuan pulled Lin Wei and Lin Guo to Cheng Man's side, and then stood in front of them.
Lin Wei looked at the stopped car, a little confused, can a two-legged one run over four wheels now?
Moreover, she didn't see anyone chasing behind the car......
Could it be that the gangsters are in the car?
It's not right, if the gangster is really in the car, can this person still shout for help?
The car door suddenly opened, and a tall man with short hair came out, and he couldn't see the men and women clearly.
Her legs were a little shaky, and she seemed to be terrified to the extreme.
"Uncle, will you deliver babies?!"
She opened her mouth to say just that, and after speaking, she seemed to feel that something was wrong, and quickly said: "You guys, do you know any nearest way to the hospital here?"
The voice was urgent, and there was some despair.
Deliver?
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and Grandma Cheng carried a kitchen knife and quickly ran over there, "What's wrong?"
