It was late at night, and the train at that time was not air-conditioned, and although there were a lot of people, it was still cold. Zhang Xiaoqiang wrapped the quilt tightly and fell asleep, and woke up again after a while, unable to sleep steadily.

Li Aobai said that it is very fragrant, and the adaptability of being a soldier is strong. No matter what the circumstance, sleep as you say.

It was finally dawn, and there were people walking back and forth in the aisles, receiving water, washing their faces, and going to the toilet. It was noisy, and after a while, the breakfast cart was pushed over, and everyone was asked who had breakfast.

Zhang Yang took Zhang Chen to wash his face, and the two of them sat at the table below. Eating melon seeds and peanuts, while eating and looking at the scenery outside the window.

Zhang Xiaoqiang took out the cakes she brought, as well as sauerkraut and peanuts, and distributed them to everyone. Li Aobai went to pick up a kettle of boiling water, poured out some with a lid and left it to dry. The cake is so delicious, with sauerkraut and peanuts.

After breakfast, Li Aobai pointed to the scene outside the window to the two brothers-in-law and told them where this was and what had happened in the history here.

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Aobai, I didn't expect that your knowledge of history and geography is so rich. ”

Li Aobai said with a smile: "Over the years of being a soldier, this road has been going back and forth, and the names of the places you pass by can be memorized, of course you know." This is not an exaggeration.

Li Aobai took out another pair of chess and played with Zhang Yang, while Zhang Chen watched from the side. Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at this Li Aobai, but she didn't expect him to be so careful.

Along the way, playing around, eating and drinking, at six o'clock in the afternoon, the car arrived at the destination. A group of four people got out of the car. It's too late today, so I can only find a place to stay, and then take the bus back to the county tomorrow morning.

At the guest house next to the bus station. A room was registered, and four people moved in with their luggage. Don't underestimate Zhang Yang, he really behaved like a little adult along the way, the luggage was all held by him and Li Aobai, and Zhang Xiaoqiang was just carrying a smaller bag.

After putting the luggage away, Li Aobai said, "Let's go out to eat, the dry food we brought is finished." ”

Zhang Chen heard the word "eat" as soon as he heard it. I was excited. He clamored for dumplings, so he had to comply with his request to eat dumplings.

Four people. I asked for two catties of dumplings and a plate of cold dishes.

Li Aobai kept asking everyone: "What else do you eat?" Be sure to eat well. ”

Zhang Chen patted his belly and said, "Brother-in-law, you are already very full." ”

Zhang Yang sneered and said: "Chenwa is a glutton. Zhang Chen made a grimace at his brother when he heard this.

After eating. Went to the station. After a look, the morning bus is tomorrow at half past seven. By the way, I bought my ticket and came over on time tomorrow to get on the bus.

On the streets, people come and go in a hurry. However, in the western capital, the flavor of the New Year is quite strong. Merchants also put up signs for New Year's goods early.

Half a year ago, when Zhang Xiaoqiang passed by here. There are still very few merchants, but I didn't expect it to be only half a year. So many have been added. It seems that most people have opened their minds and are learning to do business. Take advantage of this great opportunity to earn some money.

Walking down the street, the four of them went back to their rooms and went to bed early.

Got up very early in the morning, packed my bags and checked out.

I rushed to the station, bought a few oil cakes at the door, and ate them as I walked. Found the car and sat down, Li Aobai looked at the time, and went down to buy a few tea eggs.

The stomach is full, and the time for the drive has come.

For more than two hours, Zhang Chen fell asleep again. When he arrived at the county seat, he woke Zhang Chen up.

The changes in the county seat in the past half a year or so, Zhang Xiaoqiang is a little unrecognizable. In the past, there were many small business stalls in places that sold steamed buns.

Lanterns, couplets, snacks, and so on, as well as colorful fabrics, hung all over the streets.

Zhang Xiaoqiang suggested that she should do some New Year's goods and hire a carriage to pull them back later. Li Aobai said: "Let's go to the market and buy some meat or something." ”

After buying some New Year's goods, Zhang Xiaoqiang asked the three of them to wait on the side of the street, and she went to the county hospital next to it and found the carriage she had hired before. He was still the one who drove the car, and he knew the girl in front of him.

The carriage pulled the four men back to the familiar village.

The four of them got out of the carriage, Li Dabiao was chopping wood at the door, and when he saw his son and daughter-in-law, he ran over happily.

Shen Cuihua also came out, and when she saw the things in the carriage, her eyes lit up.

Grandma also heard that her grandson and granddaughter-in-law were back, and hurried out.

Luggage and New Year's goods were moved into the house. Grandma hugged Zhang Xiaoqiang and Li Aobai at once, looking up and down.

Li Dabiao asked: "Baiwa, why did this old Zhang doll come back with you?" The family thought that the child had run away and that his father was crazy. ”

Shenyang Cuihua also said: "That's it, what's the matter with these two babies? ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang just wanted to speak, but was blocked by Li Aobai with his eyes. Li Aobai said: "These two children went to the army to look for us, and the children suffered a lot, so we left them with us, and we will take them away after the New Year, and they will follow us in the future." ”

Shen Cuihua said: "You melon baby, why are we wading into other people's troubled waters." People don't want it, what do we want? ”

Zhang Yang and Zhang Chen shrank to the side again, and at this time, the grandmother pulled the two children to her. Grandma said: "These two children have been pitiful since childhood, the old Zhang family is uneasy and kind, and they don't leave a way for the baby to live, we can't be like them." ”

Shen Cuihua said: "No, the two children have to spend a lot of money, no wonder, the money you sent back is less, it turns out that you are raising others." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Dad, Mom, Grandma, don't worry, I will support my younger brother." ”

"You feed, how do you feed? Your old Zhang family is too much, you don't want the two children, push it to our family, we really owe you in our last life. "Shen Cuihua's troubles have started again.

Li Dabiao said: "Don't talk about it, Baiwa daughter-in-law, I heard that your father went crazy because of the loss of the child, you can take the time to go back and have a look." ”

As soon as Zhang Xiaoqiang heard the crazy words, she was thinking, her father had no feelings in her heart, how could she go crazy because of the loss of her son? There is no mistake. Yes, it's time for her to go back and see.

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "I don't want to go back!" ”

As soon as Zhang Chen heard that he was going back, he cried directly, he said, "I won't go back, I won't go back." ”

Li Aobai squatted down, took the two brothers-in-law into his arms and said, "Don't worry, with me, no one dares to bully you, I will protect you." ”

Grandma said: "Since the child doesn't want to go back, just squeeze on my kang with me, the people of the old Zhang family are too disagreeable." ”

Shen Cuihua wanted to say something, Li Dabiao said: "It's okay, for the New Year, let the baby live in our house first." (To be continued.) )
