Chapter 17 A Thousand Miles Meet
Xiaobai sat motionless on the sofa when he heard the news that Ning Hua had returned to his hometown and was going to break up with him when he heard the news from Li Xiao.
"Ning Hua has returned to his hometown and wants to break up with you. Hong Xiaoyang asked in surprise.
"Yes. Xiaobai put down the phone and pretended to answer calmly.
"If I make a fuss with you, I won't run back to my hometown. ”
"It's okay to have an awkward relationship with me, but you forgot that she was just fired from the company. ”
"Yes, yes, how did I forget about it. ”
"I regret it, I shouldn't have been with Yating. ”
"What's the use of you regretting it now, everyone has already returned to their hometown. ”
"So what to do, I don't break up, I love her. ”
"Who told you not to explain to her immediately at that time, but then caught up and made it clear that there is nothing now. ”
"You said that Ning Hua was also fired from the company and graduated. She won't, won't she won't come. ”
"I think it's possible, but I'm angry with you. ”
"No, I'm going to her hometown to find her. ”
"Don't get excited, don't get excited. I'm talking nonsense, she will definitely come, it is not easy for her to go from a small rural area to a big city, how can she give up her status as a college graduate and return to the countryside? Don't worry, she will definitely come back. ”
"Really. ”
"Of course it's true, and Li Xiao is here, their rent hasn't expired yet, she must have gone back to see her parents in such a hurry, maybe in a few days." ”
"No, I'm still not at ease, I have to go to his hometown to find her. ”
"It's so late at night, where are you going to find her, and do you know where her hometown is?"
"I really know that once we went out to run errands together, I looked at her ID card, it seems to be in a small town called Yunping, but I can't remember the specific location, but it doesn't matter, in that kind of town, we can know the specific location of her home with a little inquiry. After Xiaobai said this, he stared at Hong Xiaoyang.
"Don't look at me, tomorrow Friday, I'm a guy with a mortgage and a car loan to work. ”
"Call your leader to ask for leave, you have to accompany me this time no matter what. Xiaobai took out his mobile phone and handed it to Hong Xiaoyang.
"Our leaders won't agree, the unit has been busy lately. Hong Xiaoyang glanced at it and didn't pick up the mobile phone handed over by Xiaobai.
"I'll pay your mortgage for you this month. ”
"I... I misremembered just now, I've been busy with work lately, and our leaders will definitely agree. After saying that, he grabbed his mobile phone and went to the balcony to make a call.
……
"That's it. Hong Xiaoyang came back from the balcony and said.
"To be honest, I really want to go to Ning Hua's hometown to see what is going on at her house, and I'll wait for you downstairs at 9 o'clock tomorrow. ”
Ning Hua was very happy to see Li Xiao's reply. Seeing the 20 missed phone calls made by Xiaobai, she was a little melancholy, where should she and Xiaobai go? She was seriously thinking about this question in her heart.
The next morning, Xiaobai and Hong Xiaoyang drove on the road...... It was close to five o'clock in the afternoon, and a white car drove into Ninghua's village.
"Wow, whose car is this? ”
"Whose relatives are this? Is it in the wrong place? ”
"Yes, there is no one in our village who has such relatives. ”
Several neighbors saw Xiaobai and Hong Xiaoyang enter the village, and they were very curious. Ning Hua didn't notice washing clothes in front of the house until the car stopped in front of her house. Ning Huacai put down the work in his hand and stood in place, unable to believe that Xiaobai and Hong Xiaoyang were really here.
The two of them got out of the car, although they had seen the huge gap between the countryside and the city on the way here just now, they were still quite surprised when they stood in front of Ning Hua's house. Because the houses of the Ning Hua family were more dilapidated and older than the ones they saw on the road.
"Why are you here? Ning Hua asked.
Ning's father and Ning's mother also walked out. "Ninghua, who are they? Father Ning looked at the two strange men and asked.
"Oh, this is a colleague from my company. Ning Hua thought for a moment and replied.
"Hello uncle and aunt. The two greeted each other politely.
"Colleague, but what's the matter?" Father Ning then asked.
"Uncle and aunt, we came from Changxi specially, and the company has some urgent matters that Ninghua urgently needs to go back to deal with, so the company's leaders sent us over to pick up Ninghua back. Hong Xiao guessed that Ning Hua said that they were colleagues in the company, so they must not have told their parents about her dismissal, so he also followed Ning Hua's words and spread this panic.
"I'm not going back. Ning Hua said calmly.
"Ning Hua, why are you so ignorant, the company has sent someone to pick it up, and she doesn't deal with the company's affairs. Mother Ning came over and said Ning Hua.
"Since you are here from Changxi, you have also traveled for a day today. It's not getting early, so it's better to have dinner at home and stay overnight and go back tomorrow morning. Father Ning said.
"Dad, why are you keeping them, you are kind, but the sons of the city will not live in our dilapidated farmhouse. ”
"Uncle, we don't dislike it, we can live in any kind of house. Xiaobai said.
"Yes, uncle, we have no problem staying. Hong Xiaoyang was also busy talking.
"As long as you don't dislike it, come in. ”
Walking into the house, it is also the same as what you see from the outside, several simple rooms painted with red bricks, each room has only a wooden bed, a wooden bench, a wooden cabinet, the only household appliance is only a TV, no refrigerator, no air conditioner, no washing machine......
After dinner, Ning's mother found that the electric fan in the guest's room was broken. In July, mosquitoes bitten in the countryside, and the weather was even hotter, so Ning's mother sent Ning Hua to the village store to buy a new electric fan.
"Auntie, what kind of medicine are you drinking? Bai and Hong sat down and chatted with Ning's mother. Xiaobai had already noticed Ning's mother's medicine.
"This is some medicine for body pain and rheumatic diseases. Mother Ning said.
"Rheumatic pain is not something that is usually found in older people, and you are only in your 40s, how can it be so serious? ”
"You don't know that when I gave birth to Ninghua, I had a difficult birth, our mother and son almost didn't survive, the family was too poor to do a good job in confinement was the disease that fell at that time, and the family relied on Ninghua's father to earn a little money by doing coolies outside, not only to bear my medical expenses, but also to bear Ninghua's increasingly expensive tuition, the family not only did not have a penny of savings, but also owed a lot of foreign debts, you drove all the way here today and saw that our family is the poorest in the whole village. ”
Hong Xiaoyang and Xiaobai glanced at each other, and then they knew the real situation in Ning Hua's house. "I only knew that Ning Hua's family conditions were not good, but Ning Hua never told us these things in detail. Hong Xiaoyang said.
"Although Ning Hua is a girl, she has a strong self-esteem, how could she tell you this. ”
"Auntie, don't be too sad, life will get better and better in the future, now that Ning Hua has also graduated and worked, she will honor you in the future." Xiaobai said. In fact, he wanted to add at this time. "I will honor you in the future. ”
"Yes, Auntie. You've got a good daughter. Today, we drove over and didn't know the road when we drove to the town, but as soon as we said that everyone in Ninghua Town knew about it, they all said that you have cultivated a great college student. ”
"Yes, it's not easy for our family to raise a college student, you can see that Ning Hua's father is so thin that there are only a few bones left. ”
"Uncle is indeed too thin, and he will have to make up for it in the future. Hong Xiaoyang looked at Ning's father's busy figure outside and said.
"Auntie, let me ask, how much debt does the family owe? Xiaobai said.
"I owe forty or fifty thousand, but fortunately, Ning Hua studied and worked part-time when he was sensible in college, otherwise he owed more. It's really pitiful for Ning Hua, she has been suffering with us since she was a child, and now her father and I only hope that Ning Hua can find someone who loves him and loves her. ”
"Auntie, what kind of person do you want Ning Hua to find in the future. Xiaobai asked.
"Find someone who understands her and loves her, the two of them have been ordinary all their lives, and it is enough to love each other in a down-to-earth manner. ”
"Auntie, what do you think of him. Hong Xiaoyang pointed to Xiaobai and asked Ning's mother.
"Mom, the fan was bought. Ning Mu looked at Xiaobai and then at Xiaoyang, and just as she was about to evaluate the two of them, Ning Hua came in from outside with a fan.
"I bought it back, okay. I'll clean up the house, and you'll talk. Mother said and walked away.
Ning Hua ignored the two of them and walked out of the house to the back of the house.
"Xiao Ning, don't run. Bai Yitao followed.
"Don't call me Xiao Ning, let my parents hear badly, they think we are just ordinary colleagues. ”
"Why don't you answer my phone, why don't you run back without saying a word? Xiao Bai asked in a whisper behind Ning Hua.
"I see that you and Sun Yating are so happy to have fun, I can't bear to spoil your fun. ”
"Sun Yating and I ate together at school that day because it was her birthday. She came to the school to look for me by herself, so we had dinner together, and you also saw Xiao Ming that day, and he was also there. Xiao Bai stood in front of Ning Hua and said.
"Now you're still hiding it from me, do you only have to eat that day? You know what else you've done. Ning Hua turned his back to him and said.
"We didn't do anything after that. Xiaobai didn't know that Ning Hua already knew about him and Sun Yating going to the amusement park together.
"You still don't admit it, you can see the picture for yourself here. Ning Hua took out the photo that Sun Yating sent her that day and showed it to Bai Yitao.
"You, how do you have these pictures. Xiaobai never thought that Ning Hua would have a photo of her and Sun Yating.
"This was all sent to me by your ex-girlfriend Sun Yating, if you want to ask how these photos came from, you just ask her to go" Ning Hua snatched the phone and turned to leave.
"Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning, listen to me, listen to my explanation......" Ning Hua walked around the corner, and Xiao Bai came up and grabbed her arm.
"You shouldn't have come today, we should have ...... if we knew you had such an attitude. Before the word breakup was spoken, Xiaobai blocked the two words that she was about to say with her mouth. Ning Hua hurriedly pushed him away in a panic.
"What are you doing, what if my parents see this in my house. ”
"I don't care unless you listen to me. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you. ”
"That day was Sun Yating's birthday, and she begged me to accompany her for the last time, so that she would no longer come to pester me and no longer trouble you, so I thought about it for a long time before finally agreeing, I was going to explain to you the next day, but you came back the next day, I couldn't be in a hurry, and I knew about your affairs in the company, so I came to you in a hurry. ”
"I don't believe it, even if that's the case, why did you hide it from me just now, and you didn't tell me the truth. ”
"Because I don't want you to be more misunderstood, I want you to be less troubled and more smiling. ”
Ning Hua stared at the stars in the night sky and didn't speak.
"Xiao Ning, don't you believe it, I can swear. ”
"Don't swear, I believe you. Ning Hua covered Bai Yitao's mouth with his palm.
Ning Hua walked a few steps away from Bai Yitao and said: "Xiaobai, you also know the specific situation in my family, I didn't think much about what Sun Yating told me before, but now when the reality is in front of me, I think the gap between the two of us is really too big, and I always have a feeling that we can't go together." ”
"Xiao Ning, don't think like that. In the past, I didn't help your family because I didn't know the specific situation of your family, but now that I know that I can't stand idly by, you can rest assured that I will honor my uncle and aunt with you. Xiaobai walked behind Ning Hua and said.
"Xiaobai, if you love me, don't give me money on money, I don't want to live on the pity of others, I want to make my own money to pay off my family's debts, treat my mother's illness, and I have already discussed with Xiaoxiao, let's go to a financial company to do sales together, and we will go to the interview next Monday." ”
"Xiao Ning, I support you in whatever you want to do, but how can you see my help to you as a charity, I just hope to honor your parents with you....... ”
"Ning Hua, why hasn't Ning Hua gone back to the house to sleep. Mother Ning called.
"It's coming, it's coming. Ning Hua answered her mother loudly.
"My mom told us to go to bed, don't talk about money, I won't agree. ”
"Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning......" Ning Hua walked into the house.
"How are you two talking? Seeing Xiaobai enter the house, Hong Xiaoyang asked.
"The misunderstanding with Sun Yating is clear, but how can I say that she refuses to accept my help. ”
"Don't worry, there's always a way. Hong Xiaoyang patted Xiaobai's shoulder.
"Come on, go to bed. ”
……
The next day, before the three of them packed up their things and left, Ning's mother grabbed Ning Hua.
"Xiao Ning, you tell your mother the truth, what is the relationship between these two colleagues. ”
"Mom, why do you ask that, we are just ordinary colleagues. ”
"How can ordinary colleagues care so much about our family's affairs, and deliberately drove a day to come to you, since you refuse to tell the truth, my mother will not force you, but as a mother, you should still tell you, whether you are talking about friends outside, working to make money, girls must have self-respect and self-love, and do not do ridiculous things for money. I look at the guy named Xiaoyang who is very good, he is also down-to-earth, suitable for living in the future, if people are interested in you, take advantage of the opportunity. ”
"What about Xiaobai. Ning Hua looked at them and asked.
"The little white man is not bad, but the mother can see that he is not a child from an ordinary family, you can't control it, and you can't stop the flowers and plants around him, if you want to choose someone to live or Xiaoyang. ”
"Okay, mom I know, you take care of yourself, don't make my dad too tired, I'm leaving. ”
"Dad, don't be too tired when I'm leaving. Ning Hua walked up to his father and said reluctantly.
"I wanted to keep you at home for a few more days, but seeing that the company needs you so much, Dad is also happy, go, don't delay. ”
Ning Hua got into the car, and Xiaobai and Xiaoyang also said goodbye to Ning's father and Ning's mother.
"Have a nice ride on the road and take care of yourself outside. Mother admonished from behind.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, you pay attention to your body. ”
Soon after getting into the car, Xiaobai answered a phone call.
"Did you find out?"
"It's all clear, and sure enough, as you guessed, Sun Yating found someone to do these recent things. The man on the other end of the line returned.
"Okay, I got it. Xiaobai hung up the phone after speaking.
"What's wrong. Ning Hua asked.
"I know how you were recently fired and robbed. ”
Xiaobai drove back to Changxi......
