Chapter 319: Time Will Tell
After returning to Xinghua Hutong, they got ready, put the things they should bring into the car, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Bai drove the car in the direction of Sundian.
By driving by yourself, taking the route of Sundian is the fastest, and it is an hour less than taking the road in Vortex City.
When Su Bai went to school in Bocheng back then, he was sent by car when he went home during the holidays, so he was familiar with this road.
Halfway through, it was overcast, followed by a light rain.
"It was sunny in the morning, and I said that the weather forecast was wrong, but I didn't expect it to be really down." Su Bai said.
"There are unforeseen circumstances." Jiang Han said.
Su Bai turned on the wipers and said, "With so many things, if it rains heavily, it will be troublesome if the car can't drive to your doorstep." ”
Jiang Hanshu's country road from the west of the village to the east of the village has not been repaired, and once it rains and turns into a mud road, cars cannot enter.
And from the west of the village to Jiang Hanshu's home, there is a lot of distance.
The car continued to drive, and the rain became heavier and heavier.
Because this road is a short road, more small roads, and less avenues, Su Bai found that he overestimated himself.
He is indeed familiar with this road, but it was familiar when he was a child when he went to school in Bocheng, and in his previous life, his memory of primary school has passed for more than ten years.
Moreover, in the past few years, the village has also changed a lot.
Coupled with the heavy rain, he couldn't see too far away, and Su Bai took the wrong road several times.
Fortunately, there is navigation, although some of the trails have not yet been added, but as long as you yaw, turn around and walk from the main road, you can still walk back on track.
But from the main road, you have to pass through Huagou, Louji and other towns, and from here, you have to go farther than the avenue in Vortex County.
If it takes three hours to go back by the road in Vortex County, then it takes at least four hours to go back to Huagou.
And if Su Bai doesn't make a mistake, this short road from Bocheng to Sundian will only take more than two hours to arrive.
After taking the wrong road a few more times, Su Bai no longer took the original road, and directly followed the navigation and took the main road.
If you try to take a shortcut again, if you make a few more mistakes, you may not be able to go back even tomorrow.
It's better to take the big road honestly, there is navigation, at least it won't be wrong to take the big road.
However, they had already been delayed for three hours because they had taken the wrong road several times, and it would take more than two hours to drive back from the main road.
They left at three o'clock in the afternoon, and now it's past six o'clock, and when they get home, no nine o'clock is not enough.
"Blame me, I knew this road when I was a child, but after so many years, some places have changed, and I forgot about it." Su Bai said.
"It's okay, there's no hurry." Jiang Han said.
Su Bai stopped on the side of the road, then took an umbrella and took some food and drink from the trunk.
Closing the door, Su Bai walked back into the car.
"There's fruit and some bread here, so let's pad your stomach first." Su Bai said.
He and Jiang Hanshu didn't eat much at noon, and those few mouthfuls of food could make him hungry, so he must have been a little hungry by now.
"Hmm." Jiang Hanshu nodded, took an apple and ate it.
Su Bai ate a few small soft breads, then took another sip of water, and began to continue on the road.
After Jiang Hanshu ate the apple into his stomach, he peeled an orange, then broke it in half and fed it to Su Bai's mouth: "Give." ”
Su Bai opened her mouth and ate the half of the orange in her hand.
After Su Bai finished eating, Jiang Hanshu fed the remaining half of the orange into his mouth.
Although it was summer, it was completely dark due to heavy rain.
Su Bai turned on the headlights and continued to drive forward.
Two hours later, the car finally arrived at Linhu.
It is fast from Linhu to Sujia Village, and it can be reached in ten minutes at most.
At this time, Jiang Hanshu answered the phone again.
"Did Aunt Lin get it again?" Su Bai asked.
Lin Zhen was worried about why Jiang Hanshu hadn't arrived home so late, and had already made several phone calls before.
"Hmm." Jiang Hanshu nodded.
Su Bai looked at the heavy rain outside that showed no signs of stopping, and said: "The rain is so heavy, the road at the entrance of your village can no longer enter, it is almost nine o'clock now, the dirt road is potholed, and the sky is so dark, it is not easy to walk, it is better to stay in our house for the night, and wait for tomorrow morning, I will send you back." ”
"Nope." Jiang Hanshu shook his head and said, "Those books and quilts can be left at your house first, but I have to go back." ”
"I just said yes." Su Bai said angrily: "Such a heavy rain, you walk back and your shoes are stuck in the mud, with your little strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to lift it, and if the umbrella is accidentally blown away by the wind again, you just wait to go to the hospital tomorrow." ”
"Also, Aunt Lin must be at home ready to pick you up now, as long as you arrive at the entrance of the village, no matter how hard the wind blows outside, no matter how hard the rain falls, she will definitely pick you up, this big night, not to mention the fact that you are wet and sick, this dirt road is so slippery, what if someone falls down in the two of you?" Su Bai asked.
Jiang Hanshu pursed his lips and stopped talking.
In fact, no one knows better than her how difficult the path in their village is when it rains.
The point is that if the road is close to home, forget it, it's still so far.
It's going to take half an hour.
With such a heavy rain, my clothes must have been wet when I got home.
The point is that she doesn't care if she gets wet, she gets wet, as long as she can get home.
But just like Su Bai said, if he arrives at the entrance of the village, his mother will definitely come to pick him up.
My mother had just had a serious illness, but she couldn't be allowed to suffer any more.
"I'll call my mom." Jiang Han said.
"I'll do it." Su Bai stopped the car and called Lin Zhen.
Jiang Hanshu was afraid that Lin Zhen would fall, but why wasn't Lin Zhen afraid?
Who suffers less than this mother and daughter, and who is much stronger than whom?
As soon as Su Bai told him about the situation, Lin Zhen agreed.
"Su Bai, I'm just such a daughter, don't hurt her." Lin Zhen said.
"Don't worry, I love her more than you think." Su Bai said.
"You're going to college in two months, and I don't want to ask about some things, but I know the character of this girl, as long as she likes you, she will like you for the rest of her life." Lin Zhen said.
"Aunt Lin, time will tell." Su Bai said with a smile.
"yes, time will tell." Lin Zhen also smiled.
After hanging up the phone, Su Bai started the car.
"Mother agreed?" Jiang Hanshu asked.
"Hmm." Su Bai said.
"And what did you end up talking about?" Jiang Hanshu asked.
Su Bai smiled and said, "Secret." ”
"Hate, even I have a secret?" Jiang Hanshu asked.
"It's okay to tell you, your mother told me not to hurt you, I said, I love you more than she thought." Su Bai said.
"Oh." Jiang Hanshu said softly.
