Chapter 1167: Rushing to the capital
"It's going to take about 40 minutes to get home. [Latest chapter reading.]" Lin Zihang was also confused for a while just now, so he didn't say anything, and when he heard Aunt Chen ask his head, he quickly answered.
"Forty minutes," Aunt Chen repeated, as if after thinking for a while, before continuing, "Xiaohang, yesterday afternoon, I received a call from a very nice boy's voice at home, saying that he was looking for Teacher Ding (i.e., Grandma Xu).
I didn't take it seriously, and as you know, Teacher Ding is full of peach and plum all over the world, and her students and students often have contact with her. ”
Although Lin Zihang did not face Aunt Chen, he still nodded, Grandma Xu's personality seems to be cold, but in fact she is still very enthusiastic, most of the students who usually visit her are grateful for the teacher's kindness, but it is not excluded that there are also difficulties that cannot be solved, and they express it in a roundabout way, hoping to contact the relevant departments through her connections.
Grandma Xu has no power, and of course she will not easily use her husband's relationship to favor personal feelings, but she still tries her best to help talk about money or other things that can help.
"It's just that I didn't expect that after Mr. Ding answered the phone, he sat on the sofa and was stunned for more than ten minutes," Aunt Chen is still full of self-blame when she talks about it now, "It's all my fault for being confused, obviously I asked her what was wrong at the time, she only said that she was a little depressed, just rest for a while, and then went back to the bedroom, but I believed her words." ”
Lin Zihang was furious when he heard this, and his eyes unconsciously glanced at the mobile phone, obviously restless, this phenomenon is indeed a bit abnormal.
Qin Yafu was not only nervous about Aunt Chen's words, but also even more uneasy when she saw Lin Zihang's expression, she looked at the long highway in front of her, raised her hand and gently covered the back of his hand on the gear lever, and said softly: "Zihang, don't stop on the highway, you ......"
"Well, I know, don't worry, with you, I have to be careful!" Lin Zihang interrupted his wife's words, and woke up the dreamer with a word, facing his wife's anxious eyes, he instantly woke up and refocused on looking ahead.
"Xiaohang, I, I'm still too distracted by talking now, wait for you to return to the provincial capital, come home directly. Aunt Chen naturally heard the conversation between the two people, and then remembered that she was concerned about it, and she didn't take into account that Lin Zihang was driving and was easy to encounter danger.
"Don't, Aunt Chen, don't hang up the phone!" When Lin Zihang heard this, he hurriedly objected, "Aunt Chen, you said half of what you said, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, if you just stop like this, I will have to die in a hurry, you better continue, with Yafu here, we will be fine." ”
"Okay, okay. Aunt Chen secretly regretted her recklessness, but she couldn't stop talking and simply continued.
I once secretly opened the door and looked at her twice, and I felt that she hadn't even moved her posture, so I thought she was really asleep, so I didn't take it seriously.
Until the evening, Mr. Xu came back (Aunt Chen likes to call Mr. Xu the same as Grandma Xu), and there was no abnormality, the two of them were the same as usual, after dinner, they went to the small park outside for a walk, but the time of coming back was a little later than every day, but it was not a problem, because they used to occasionally be greedy for late!"
Aunt Chen was a little nagging, laying so much foreshadowing, and before she could get to the point, Lin Zihang looked impatient, but fortunately she was stopped by Qin Yafu with gestures, after all, their husband and wife were already on the road, no matter how anxious they were, they didn't get home all at once, and listening to two more sentences and two less sentences would not hinder anything.
What's more, Aunt Chen is not an unmeasured person, since she wants to tell in detail, it must have something to do with the future.
"What I can't understand is that this morning, after eating, after Mr. Xu answered the call on his mobile phone, these two people suddenly told me that they wanted to go out for a walk with Mr. Sun, you said, this, is this reasonable? They are so old, Mr. Ding only came back from the hospital a few days ago, how can they ......?"
"Did they say where they went?" Lin Zihang finally understood what had happened, and hurriedly asked the point.
"Beijing!" Aunt Chen on the other end of the phone spat out two words clearly and unambiguously.
"Why did you go so far?" even Qin Yafu couldn't control her excitement anymore and blurted out.
"It was said that Mr. Ding had a student open a restaurant there, invited them to cut the ribbon, and traveled by the way, no matter what else, just because he was in such a hurry to leave, it didn't feel like that, why was he in such a hurry? ”
Aunt Chen wondered how she felt that something was wrong, and she raised questions at that time, but unfortunately, the Xu couple just smiled and refused to explain.
"Who would be so interested? Invite three old people of this age to cut the ribbon?" Lin Zihang's question was clearly questioning, questioning the authenticity of Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu's words.
"I don't know, I don't know anything for the rest, because Teacher Ding specially told me that this is their private action, and I am not allowed to tell anyone, otherwise, she will be angry. ”
Aunt Chen is good at everything, but listening to Grandma Xu's words makes people speechless, because she has always strictly followed every instruction of the old lady.
As for the last time the old lady had surgery because of appendicitis, and this time she was willing to take the initiative to find Lin Zihang, Aunt Chen was purely worried about the old lady's body and had to contact him.
"Did the three of them go together?" Lin Zihang was silent for a long time, carefully sorted out his thoughts, and then asked.
"Three people, it should be, I didn't see it," Aunt Chen replied vaguely, and then reacted, "You, you mean, it is possible that the three of them did not go together? Oh, it's not impossible."
Mr. Ding and Mr. Xu walked in a very hurry, and they didn't bring any luggage, anyway, it's convenient to go where to stay now, so it's not surprising, and the sunscreen film on Mr. Sun's car is very dark, I only saw that the co-pilot didn't sit in the co-pilot, and as for a few sitting in the back, I really didn't notice.
At that time, I tried to persuade Ms. Ding to wait until her body recovered before leaving, but her attitude was very resolute and there was no room for negotiation. ”
"Ah!" Qin Yafu exclaimed, but immediately covered her mouth with her hand, when she heard this, how could she think of the kidnapping or abduction that is often mentioned in the news?
Although Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu are old, in fact, their family background is still very thick, and it is really hard to say that someone has any bad intentions.
"It's okay," Lin Zihang seemed to guess Qin Yafu's thoughts, shook his head at her, and comforted Aunt Chen at the same time, "Don't think about it, wait for me to go back, find a way to contact Sun Lao and see what he has to say." ”
"You, are you saying that Mr. Sun didn't go?" Aunt Chen became more and more flustered by Lin Zihang's question, and her voice trembled, thinking that there might only be Mr. Xu and the old lady who went to Beijing, which made her even more sad.
"Well, I think they do have something to go out, but as they say, it's a private matter, and they don't want too many people to know about it. Lin Zihang's voice calmed down, and he guessed something.
Qin Yafu's heart was messy, and many clues were intricate, but she understood some questions in Lin Zihang's determined eyes, but she didn't dare to speak out, she didn't know what to say, and the knuckles of her fingers that had been holding the phone were slightly white, and they were already stiff and numb.
"Don't think about it!" Lin Zihang snatched the mobile phone from Qin Yafu's hand, gently put it on the workbench, and said loudly, "Aunt Chen, don't worry, you can stay at home with peace of mind, maybe Grandma Xu will call home."
I'll contact Sun Lao immediately, whether he goes or not, I will definitely go to find them, don't worry, nothing will happen. ”
"Xiaohang ......" Aunt Chen finally heard a reassuring word, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded, "You understand my relationship with Teacher Ding, it's no different from my relatives, today's matter, it's best if they are fine, if there is something, I ......"
"I can't complain about you if I have something, don't worry!" Lin Zihang sighed secretly, this Aunt Chen is almost no longer a relative, she has followed Grandma Xu for many years, and she is like a mother and daughter, so she is not particularly worried.
"I have always felt that for Teacher Ding, Xiao Wei is gone, at least there is me, I am willing to be a cow and a horse to serve her, and it is no problem to provide for her to retire to the end.
But I didn't expect that in her mind, in fact, I am still an outsider after all, and she still refuses to tell me if she encounters any trouble......"
"Aunt Chen," Lin Zihang interrupted Aunt Chen's muttering, and said in a soft voice, "Sometimes, if you don't tell you, it's out of love for you, your feelings for them, I believe they are all clear, so, don't think about it, what's the problem, let's wait a while, wait until they come back, you ask in person, don't you just listen to them?"
"Well, that's right," Aunt Chen's voice became a little excited, "Teacher Ding has always been frank and sincere, if she didn't like me, she would definitely not keep me for so many years." ”
Aunt Chen's life experience is miserable, and she likes Grandma Xu's attitude towards her the most, and when she heard Lin Zihang say this, she unconsciously felt much better.
"That's right, Aunt Chen, don't worry, rest assured that you are waiting for news at home, as soon as there is a result, we will definitely tell you as soon as possible." Qin Yafu also helped comfort Aunt Chen.
"Then, okay then, Yafu, thank you!Xiaohang, you concentrate on driving, remember to tell me the result as soon as possible!" Aunt Chen and Qin Yafu were still a little rusty, while thanking her for comforting, and on the other hand, she didn't forget to tell Lin Zihang again, what she was most concerned about.
"No problem, goodbye Aunt Chen!" Lin Zihang agreed, and after Aunt Chen hung up the phone, his face became heavy, he thought about it, and turned his head to look at Qin Yafu.
"I think it should be," Qin Yafu didn't wait for Lin Zihang to speak, she said something inexplicably, and then, her eyes widened, she looked at Lin Zihang with a serious face, and emphasized without compromise, "You can't coax me like you coax Aunt Chen!"
