Chapter 37: The Exodus
When the two of them arrived at Lin Xiaomi's house, it was already more than 6 o'clock in the evening, but the daylight hours in summer were longer, the sun had not yet set, and the people in the village were all sitting together in groups of three or five chatting.
There is a big tree in front of Lin Xiaomi's house, and there are several people enjoying the shade under their big tree.
She saw people from afar under her tree.
"Stop, don't drive to my door" Wu Hao listened to her words and hurriedly stopped the car.
"What's wrong?" Wu Hao asked puzzled.
"Don't you see a crowd of people sitting in front of my house? Let them see it, and they don't know what they will say about me behind my back, so you stop here and I'll walk back. ”
As she spoke, she quickly got out of the car and waved his hand to signal him to go back.
Although Wu Hao was reluctant in his heart, he still obediently rode the car and prepared to leave.
"Then I'll come to you tomorrow and take you to the train station!"
She nodded and smiled and said thank you. I walked home alone.
When I entered the house, my mother was preparing dinner in the kitchen, and when she saw her walking back alone, she hurriedly asked.
"Wu Hao? Didn't he go with you? Didn't send you back? ”
Lin Xiaomi thought that if she let her mother know that Wu Hao had sent her to the door of the house, she would definitely scold herself for fear that others would gossip and drive him away.
"He sent me to the entrance of the village, and I went back if I had something to do," she replied with a little weakness.
"You kid, why don't you leave him home for dinner?" Mother Lin was a little angry when she heard her answer.
"Mom! It's already past six o'clock, it's seven or eight o'clock after eating, and it's dark by then, how can he go back on a motorcycle! ”
"Sleep at our house when it's dark!" She was shocked by her mother's words, she didn't expect her mother to recognize Wu Hao so quickly, but she didn't give her Ji Yang a chance.
"If someone has something to do, they will go back first, and he didn't say that he wanted to come to our house for dinner!" She said angrily.
Mother Lin was a little puzzled when she heard this: "What did you say, this kid?" Wu Hao doesn't want to eat at our house anymore! If he doesn't mean anything to you, he comes to you every day.
Lin Lin! Wu Hao is a good boy, you can think about it."
"Mom! I'm hungry, when will I eat! ”
Lin Xiaomi knew that her mother would definitely introduce Wu Hao to her one by one next, and she also knew that Wu Hao was a good person, but love came first, she met Ji Yang first, and her whole heart was on him, so what does it have to do with her no matter how good other people are?
Mother Lin heard her say that she was hungry, and she also knew that Lin Xiaomi was changing the topic, so she didn't say anything more.
"Eat later, what are you thinking about every day! What I just told you to think about it at night before you go to bed. ”
Lin Xiaomi did think about it before going to bed at night, but it wasn't Wu Hao who was thinking about it, but Ji Yang.
She took out the 10,000 yuan she had withdrawn from the bank and put it under her bedside to hide it, thinking that she would tell her father about the money after she got on the train tomorrow.
sent a text message to Ji Yang.
"Jiyang, I have bought my ticket, the train will be at 2 pm tomorrow, and I will arrive at 4 pm the day after tomorrow."
"Really? Lin Lin, I'm not dreaming! It's really good that you can come, rest assured I will definitely come to pick you up at the train station the day after tomorrow."
Looking at the message she sent, Ji Yang replied excitedly.
At dawn the next day, my mother was downstairs and shouted:
"Lin Lin, today your aunt called us and asked us to go to her house to get some watermelon to eat, you hurry up and come with me."
Lin Xiaomi's sleepy eyes were hazy and went downstairs
"Mom! You go alone! How are the two of us going! There was only a bicycle in the house, and the tricycle was also ridden to the town by my father to work."
"You can borrow another bicycle at your uncle's house for you to ride, your aunt hasn't seen you for almost a year, and your cousin is also at home now." Lin Mu replied.
"Mom, I'm today..." just as he was speaking, he heard Wu Hao's knock on the door.
"Wu Hao came to find my mother."
Mother Lin also heard it and hurriedly ran to open the door, only to see Wu Hao standing outside the door.
"Auntie! Today I want to take Lin Lin to visit our supermarket, which is almost finished."
Mother Lin listened to Wu Hao's words and said with a smile: "That's okay, Lin Lin, you go to the town with Wu Hao today, thinking that the Dragon Boat Festival will be over in a few days."
When the time comes, we'll go to your aunt's house together."
"Okay Mom, say hello to my aunt for me, I have one more thing for my cousin"
With that, he went upstairs to find a box of face masks for his mother to carry.
After Mother Lin left, there were only two people left in the house, her and Wu Hao.
"You really have a way!" She complimented.
"Are you really leaving? Are you really going to leave today? ”
He asked reluctantly. She looked at him for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Wu Hao, I don't know if my choice is right, but if I don't choose, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
Maybe you will regret today's choice in the future, but isn't youth like this? ”
"Lin Lin, I respect your choice, and I hope you can always be happy."
In fact, she didn't know that Wu Hao also bought the same ticket as her, and he didn't worry that she would take the car alone, so he took advantage of the time to find a car and also bought a ticket to Shanghai.
Even if he didn't have a seat and could only stand for more than ten hours, he was willing to accompany her like this.
"You go up and pack your things first! Today I'm driving my dad's car to take you to the train station," he said, looking at her.
She nodded and went upstairs to clean up her things, in fact, Lin Xiaomi didn't have anything to pack, she originally thought that if her mother was at home today.
When you go out, you will carry a package and two pieces of clothing.
Now that my mother has gone to my aunt's house, she can bring an extra box to put all the clothes she brought back before.
Soon Lin Xiaomi packed up, he took Lin Xiaomi's box and put it in the trunk of the car.
"Let's go! Let's go to our supermarket first, it's still early anyway."
She looked at her phone, it was still early to go to the train station. So he nodded and got into the car, and he drove Lin Xiaomi to his supermarket.
Then I parked the car in the lower parking lot of the supermarket.
"Let's go up and have a look!" Saying that, the two of them got on the elevator and came to the first floor of the supermarket.
Wu Hao's supermarket is about the same size as the ordinary supermarket in the big city, with more than 1,000 square meters, which is the largest supermarket in the town, and there are many layers and categories in it.
After visiting the supermarket, he took Lin Mi to a Malatang shop.
This is a shop that he grew up from a snack, the shop was opened by a grandmother in her 60s, and her grandmother told Lin Xiaomi that she had been here for more than 10 years, and Wu Hao grew up from their spicy hot food.
"Wu Hao, you haven't been here for a long time," the old grandmother greeted Wu Hao.
"Grandma, I just came back, aren't you here to eat?"
The old grandmother looked at Lin Xiaomi, who was beside Wu Hao, and asked, "Boy, what a blessing!" Your girlfriend is so good-looking".
Lin Xiaomi originally wanted to explain, but when she thought that she and Wu Hao would come to eat, she would definitely be misunderstood.
felt that Wu Hao had also helped him today, so he didn't care about explaining more.
Wu Hao saw that she didn't say anything, just lowered his head to eat, and smiled a little shyly at the old grandmother.
"I'm done, it's almost time, let's go!"
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Wu Hao, who had also eaten, and said.
He nodded, and the two said goodbye to the old lady and left.
Wu Hao drove her to the train station, and after parking the car, he sent Lin Mi to the waiting room.
"Thank you Wu Hao, I'm leaving, take care, I hope you can find a girlfriend who loves you in the future"
Saying that, Lin Xiaomi said goodbye to him with a smile.
Wu Hao smiled bitterly and looked at the back of her leaving, I just want you, it's enough to have you, even if you have never liked me.
Lin Xiaomi, I hope that one day you can understand that there is a boy who once liked you very much, and he will silently support you when you make any decision....
