Chapter 279: Picking Up Friends
According to the original plan, Sang Ping pulled a cart of bud valley to visit Meng Zecheng today.
He will be gone for several days before he returns.
In addition to taking care of the children, Yu Sheng's family is very idle most of the time. When Sang Lili is here, she can still talk for a long time. But yesterday afternoon, she was picked up by Guo Zhengjun, and Sang Jianbang of the province came to bother her again.
A phone call came from home.
Yu Sheng answered, "Hello, who one?" ”
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be stunned for a moment, "Sister-in-law." I'm Chang Xu. You remember me not. ”
"Xiao Xu, remember." Yu Sheng heard the noise on his side, so he asked him in a friendly manner, "Where are you staying?" You said you wanted to come back a long time ago, why haven't you seen you yet? ”
"I'm almost there. I'll be there next. Chang Xu's voice was full of excitement, "This stop will be stopped for ten minutes." I hurried down to make a call. Sister-in-law, you asked Ping to pick me up. ”
Ouch, that's not a coincidence.
Sang Ping only went out this morning.
However, Yu Sheng didn't tell Chang Xu about it.
Yu Sheng: "Then you wait at the station when you arrive." ”
Chang Xu: "That's good. Let's not talk about it, I'll get in the car first. ”
Through the phone, Yu Sheng could hear the long honking of the train.
The voice seemed to be urging passengers to get on the bus quickly.
Yu Sheng handed over the small steps to Aunt Peng to take care of.
She rode a bicycle to the brickyard to transfer a three-wheeled car, and personally drove to the train station to pick up Chang Xu.
Yu Sheng went to the train station and saw Chang Xu outside the station. There were several large packages piled up next to him.
He was unkempt and unkempt, apparently having not been groomed after a few days on the train.
Yu Sheng almost didn't recognize him.
Chang Xu recognized her immediately.
Chang Xu waved at her excitedly, "Sister-in-law! ”
Yu Sheng went over, looked at him, and said with a smile: "Why do you make yourself like a homeless man." ”
Chang Xu scratched his head embarrassedly, grabbed a hand of oil and rubbed it on his body.
Yu Sheng asked, "Why are you the only one?" ”
Chang Xu replied dumbfoundedly: "Just me." ”
Yu Sheng smiled a little ambiguously, "Didn't you get one back?" ”
Chang Xu was stunned for a moment, and then understood what she meant, "I... I've been single. I'm so busy that I don't have time to get a partner. ”
Yu Sheng went to drive the car to him.
Chang Xu threw the big bag and small bag into the car.
After he got in the car, he asked, "Why didn't Brother Ping come over?" ”
Yu Sheng: "He went to see a friend in another place today. You're going to call a day earlier, and he's not going to leave today. ”
"Hey." Chang Xu also regretted a little because he missed it, "Didn't I want to surprise him." ”
Yu Sheng: "When you come back, don't you hurry away, right?" ”
"Wait until after the Chinese New Year to leave." Chang Xu suddenly remembered, and turned his head to look at Yu Sheng suddenly, with concern in his eyes, "By the way, sister-in-law, aren't you in confinement." Why did you get out? ”
"I'm recovering well." Yu Sheng smiled, "I heard Ping, your family moved to a coastal city in the south, and you don't stay with your parents for the New Year, why don't you stay here for the New Year?" ”
"Hey, it's not to hide from them." Chang Xu said helplessly, "As soon as I went back, they urged me to find a partner and let them hurry up and hug my grandson." I'm only in my twenties, and I don't know what they're rushing for. ”
Yu Sheng: "You are young, of course you are not in a hurry." Your parents are different. ”
"You can't force this kind of thing, right?" Speaking of his life's events, Chang Xu's attitude is very subtle. "To be honest, there are quite a few women around me, and if I want to find them, I can just pick one of them. But all they want is my money. If I didn't have any money, they wouldn't even look at me. ”
"Why?" Yu Sheng disagreed with his point of view, "Your external conditions are actually good. Even if you don't have the material conditions, you can go anywhere. ”
Chang Xu was a little proud.
He looked in the rearview mirror, only to see his own greasy and sloppy appearance. He was busy tidying himself up in the mirror.
After tidying up, he sat back and looked at the road in his hometown through the windshield, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Oh, I really envy Brother Ping."
Hearing him suddenly say this, Yu Sheng couldn't help laughing, "What does he have to make you envious." ”
Chang Xu said sincerely: "I envy him for being a soldier. I have heard that the revolutionary friendship of those who have served in the army is ironclad, that is, the kind of affection between their comrades-in-arms, and the sense of trust that they can give each other's backs to their comrades-in-arms when they fight, and I am particularly envious. Sister-in-law, you don't know what kind of virtue Brother Ping used to have. If he hadn't been a soldier, I'm afraid he would be a second-rate son now. ”
Yu Sheng smiled again.
"You've never been a soldier, so don't you look like a person. Why don't you have that confidence in Ping? ”
and pushing people's thoughts, Chang Xu felt that what Yu Sheng said made sense.
But it has to be said that the army is a good place to hone men.
Chang Xu asked: "Is there a place for me to live at home?" If not, I'll stay in a hotel in the county seat. ”
"Don't worry. It's all arranged for you. Yu Sheng saw that he was haggard, so he said, "You can put the car on the bed and sleep for a while, and I will call you later." ”
"Hey."
After a long journey, Chang Xu was so tired that he fell asleep after closing his eyes.
When he got home, Yu Sheng woke him up.
As soon as Chang Xu saw the little red mansion, he immediately let out a sigh of surprise.
"The villas are all lived, and Brother Ping has mixed well in the past two years." Chang Xu put aside the phone and heard Sang Ping say that his hometown had built a new house, it was really better to hear than to see, but he didn't expect Brother Ping to build such a foreign building. "I really can't let my parents see a house like this. They don't like to live in the city, and if they see that there is such a good house in their hometown, they will definitely have to shout that I will spend money to build a house like this in my hometown, and they will move back to live. ”
"The hometown is very good, the environment is good, and the air is good." Yu Sheng said, "Let's get the package you brought first." ”
"I'll get it, I'll get it." Chang Xu moved the big bags from the car to the house one by one. "Why is there such a big empty space in the house, what are you doing with this shelf?"
Yu Sheng: "I opened a small supermarket on the first floor, and I kept saying that I would open a supermarket, but I didn't have time to do it." When Ping comes back, I'll buy the goods. ”
Chang Xu looked at her with admiration, "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to be quite ambitious." ”
"Don't slap me on the back." Yu Sheng smiled and said, "I'll get some hot water, you can wash it off." Then go up and get a good night's sleep. ”
Aunt Peng hugged Xiaobu to her, "Xiaobu can't find you, I've been crying for a long time." ”
"What are you crying about? I'm not lost. Yu Sheng wiped away the tears from the corners of Xiaobu's eyes, "Didn't I tell you when I left, I picked up my friend." ”
Xiaobu hummed dissatisfiedly.
Yu Sheng hugged him to Chang Xu, "Look, your godfather is here." ”
Xiaobu looked at Chang Xu in a daze, and suddenly laughed.
Yu Sheng couldn't cry or laugh, "When I saw your father, I never saw you smile so happily." ”
