After a long day of running, the three of them finally arrived at Zhenping County in the evening, when the bus to Yingwu Village was gone, and they could only stay at home in Muxiu County for one night.

"Bang bang." Mu Xiu knocked on the door.

Although Mu Xiu has the key, Chen Xuhui will lock the door inside as soon as he gets home at night.

"Who?" Chen Xuhui heard the movement outside and asked loudly.

"Brother Chen, it's me." Mu Xiu responded.

When Chen Xuhui heard Mu Xiu's voice, he was overjoyed, walked over quickly, and opened the door, but the smile on his face gradually solidified when he saw the people coming outside.

Mu Shui walked in first with his things, Mu Xiu and Lu Yuan followed closely behind, Chen Xuhui watched them enter the hall, then he came back to his senses, closed the door, and walked in.

"Brother Lu, you stay in my sister's room tonight, and I'll go in and change the sheets and quilt for you." Mu Xiu pointed to Mu Xiaoshu's room.

"Okay, I'm tired." Lu Yuan nodded.

Mu Xiu took out the spare sheets, now that the weather is hot, it is enough to cover a thin sheet at night.

"Brother Chen, you help me boil more water first, I've been on the road for a day, and I'm not feeling well." Mu Xiu said to Chen Xuhui, who was standing aside.

"Yes." Although Chen Xuhui was full of doubts and wanted to ask, his lips moved, and he finally didn't ask, but turned around and went to the yard to get water to boil.

Mu Shui also returned to his room and cleaned up.

After Chen Xuhui boiled the water and everyone took turns to take a bath, they sat down, and Mu Xiu made a big pot of tomato and egg noodles, the noodles were fragrant, Lu Yuan and Mu Shui ate with relish, but Chen Xuhui couldn't eat a bite, and his heart was full of bitterness now.

After eating and drinking, it was the fatigue brought by the car, Mu Shui yawned and went back to the house to rest first.

"I'll rest first, good night." Lu Yuan said hello and went back to the room.

Mu Xiu and Chen Xuhui's rooms were next to each other, and the two of them walked out of the hall together, Chen Xuhui finally couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here here?" And take him with you?? ”

"A few days ago, my father and I went to the provincial capital, and it happened that Brother Lu had a research project in the village below, so we came back together, and we will go back to the village tomorrow morning." Mu Xiu replied with the excuse that he had discussed with Lu Yuan a long time ago, and after finishing speaking, he didn't forget to ask again: "Brother Chen, how are you studying these days?" ”

"It's good, it's much faster than when I was in school before, but it's also more careful, and in the past few days, I've learned a course that can only be completed in at least two weeks at school." Chen Xuhui heard that Mu Xiu didn't forget to ask him with concern, and then he was in a better mood.

"Anyway, you're here alone, eat well, rest well, and don't stay up too long studying, it's only been a long time, you look at you, not only have you lost weight, but your face doesn't look good." Mu Xiu glanced at Chen Xuhui a few times and said with concern.

Chen Xuhui is indeed alone here, studying day and night, often reading books and seeing the clock.

"Well, I will, you should also hurry up and rest, tired of the day." Chen Xuhui didn't even notice it, his tone became more and more gentle.

"Okay, Brother Chen, good night." Mu Xiu smiled sweetly and walked into the bedroom.

The night was getting deeper, and the courtyard was dark, and only the lights in Chen Xuhui's room were on until the early hours of the morning before they went out.

In the morning, when Mu Xiu got up, Chen Xuhui had already gone to school, she picked a handful of small red peppers in the yard, chopped them, mixed them with garlic sprouts, added soy sauce, oyster sauce chicken essence, and then put down a pot of noodles, and ate them like this, Mu Shui and Lu Yuan ate two bowls each, and they were still unsatisfied.

After the three of them cleaned up their rooms, they walked to the station, and at noon, they returned to Yingwu Village.

At home, Zhou Shuilian took Xiaohua and watched Mu Chunfeng and Li Hu do their homework, and Mu Xiaoshu and Chen Jianqiang drove a tractor to work in the field.

Zhou Shuilian was very surprised to see Mu Shui and Mu Xiu come back with Lu Yuan.

"You've only been out for four days on the road, so you're in a hurry."

"My father and I were worried about the farm work at home, visited Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu, the things were delivered, and when the matter was done, we hurried back." Mu Xiu entered the courtyard, quickly pressed water and washed his hands, and did not forget to turn his head and continue: "Lu Yuan did a survey here, so he followed. ”

"That's right, Lu Yuan, come into the house and sit down, I'll wash some fruit for you." Zhou Shuilian greeted warmly, now that she doesn't owe the Lu family money, Zhou Shuilian feels that her waist can be straightened.

"I'll wash my face and go into the house." Lu Yuan also walked to the pressurized water well, held the water in his hands, and washed his face and hands.

"When are we going to leave for White Horse Mountain?" Mu Xiu asked in a low voice while pressing the water.

"The sooner the better, not this afternoon." Lu Yuan was afraid that he would have a lot of dreams at night, so he had better solve this matter as soon as possible to rest assured.

"Okay, let's drive the ox cart this time, driving the tractor is too conspicuous." Mu Xiu also felt that it was too early to be late.

"Have you figured out how to do it?"

"Well, I've thought about it, and we'll talk about it in detail on the way in the afternoon." Mu Xiu said confidently, but then frowned, showing an embarrassed expression.

"It's just that I don't know how to talk to my parents."

"Let's be honest." Lu Yuan thought for a moment and replied.

"That's all there is to it now." Mu Xiu walked towards Mu Shui, who was hugging Mu Xiaohua and kissing non-stop, and Zhou Shuilian, who was looking at them with a smile on the side.

"Dad, mother, this afternoon, Brother Lu and Uncle Chen and I will go out for a few days."

"Huh?"

"Do what?"

Mu Shui and Zhou Shuilian asked out loud at the same time.

"Last time, Brother Lu was doing research in a village below, and there was a madwoman's illness that happened to be his subject research, and Brother Lu wanted to send this madman to the hospital, so that he could continue to study the subject and treat her for free." Mu Xiu quickly figured out what to say.

"Free treatment, this is a good thing, do you want to do it with Uncle Chen?" Zhou Shuilian showed a strange expression.

"That family actually didn't want this madman for a long time, they just deliberately made things difficult for Brother Lu, asked for five hundred yuan, and went to Uncle Chen to go over, and the clothes were almost there, and it was estimated that one hundred yuan could buy that crazy woman." Mu Xiu explained.

"It's really black-hearted, I want to sell people if I can treat them for free, I still look at Lu Yuan's clothes, I have money when I see it, and I deliberately cheat him." Zhou Shuilian said angrily.

"That's why Brother Lu wants us to do us a favor."

"Then let your father go, Uncle Chen will not toss when he is old." Zhou Shuilian was thoughtful.

"Mother, you said that my father is also a person who seems to be healthy and lacks nothing, why buy a madman for no reason, only Uncle Chen is the most suitable, a handful of years, pick up rags to the door of people's homes, just see this madman, I want to have a random partner, there is someone who can accompany him." Mu Xiu slowly said the reason.
