But Ji Xiaofan still didn't want to give up, looked at him and asked:

"Excuse me, will your cousin come back after that? Or where is he now? Can I know? ”

Xu Zhizhou looked at Ji Xiaofan and didn't give up, smiled and said:

"Little girl, why don't you tell me where your family lives? How can I contact you, my cousin is currently being treated, and if his condition improves, he will return to China. I'll contact you when he returns. ”

Now, Ji Xiaofan is just a stranger to their family, and they will not easily tell anyone their home address and the situation of their family members.

Ji Xiaofan only said that his surname was Lu and left his contact information.

She didn't say that her surname was Ji, just because she didn't want Xu Zhizhou to look for her in the future.

This grandfather, Ji Xiaofan didn't plan to admit it.

After Ji Xiaofan returned to Lu's house, he heard Sister-in-law Zhang say that Lu Qiming and Yu Wei hadn't woken up yet, Ji Xiaofan thought about it and asked Sister-in-law Zhang to wait for Lu Qiming to get up and tell him, she went back to school first.

There are almost no taxis in this area, and Ji Xiaofan didn't wait for one after walking far away.

There were cars passing by non-stop, but no one stopped.

After Xu Zhizhou came out of the villa, the driver drove the car forward, Xu Zhizhou was squinting his eyes to rest, but when he opened his eyes, he saw the little girl wearing a school uniform on the side of the road, and suddenly thought of the little girl surnamed Lu just now.

Xu Zhizhou shouted to stop the driver, "Stop." ”

After the driver stopped, Xu Zhizhou lowered the window and looked at Ji Xiaofan outside.

"Little girl, are you taking a taxi?"

Ji Xiaofan looked at Xu Zhizhou, and was not too surprised, and nodded.

"It's hard to take a taxi here, where are you going? I'll ask the driver to take you there. ”

"Thank you, no need." Ji Xiaofan said politely, not wanting to have too much communication with Xu Zhizhou.

Xu Zhizhou smiled and said:

"You're carrying a bag, you're going to school, right? There are no buses here, taxis rarely come in, and sometimes there may not be anyone waiting for a day. ”

Ji Xiaofan hesitated for a moment, and then did not refuse again.

After sitting in the car, Xu Zhizhou glanced at Ji Xiaofan and smiled.

He could see that the little girl was rejecting him, so he smiled and said:

"Little girl, don't be afraid, I don't have any malicious intent, you look a little similar to my deceased wife, so I look a little close."

When Ji Xiaofan heard him say that he had lost his wife, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Who is the deceased wife he is talking about?

Could it be your grandmother?

Or the wife he later married?

When Ji Xiaofan was silent, he listened to Xu Zhizhou and began to recall the past.

Probably because he was older, he didn't have children by his side, and he felt lonely, so at this time, Ji Xiaofan, who was still a stranger, recalled the past.

"Many years ago, I was an educated youth in the countryside, and in those days, many people left the city and went to the countryside, just like me. I went to a place called Rhubarb Village in the mountains, and stayed there for many years, thinking that I would not be able to come back, so I made a home there and married a local girl. ”

Ji Xiaofan looked at him, "Is that the Li Xiulan you said?" ”

"Yes, she has never read a book, and she does not know how to read, but she is very good at her craft, whether it is cutting window flowers or making clothes, she is more delicate and beautiful than others. She was willing to learn to read and write with me, and at that time she was in the production team during the day, and when she came back at night, she relied on the kerosene lamp to learn to read. She's very talented, the most talented girl I've ever seen. ”
