Volume 1 Chapter 79: Descending the Mountain
After late at night, I went back to Cha Sisi's house alone, but fortunately this time there was an oil lamp brought up from Zhuo Sang's house.
Pushing open the door, I found Cha Sisi sitting on a stool in the front hall, staring straight at the door.
I was taken aback by Cha Sisi: "Why didn't you just sit in front of the door and scare me to death....."
"Why are you helping me and Daddy pay back the money?"
I was slightly stunned, Ah Mao really told her about it, but I didn't expect Cha Sisi to ask me so directly.
"I don't want money for you and Uncle Cha, after knowing that your family owes debts that day, I thought that since you don't want money, then I will help you pay off the debts..... Isn't it very good, Uncle Cha doesn't have to be so tired every day, you can also leave here and go outside the mountain to see. ”
Cha Sisi was silent for a while, and she looked at me with a complicated expression.
After a long time, she sighed, a little helpless: "Daddy will definitely not be happy if he knows, he has always disliked other people's help like this.... But it's come to this point, the money has been repaid, and I can't go and ask for it back. Thank you for knowing the autumn...."
"It's me who should thank you."
......
This night I slept alone on the bed of Cha Youping, and I also lived in this village for half a month, although it is not as good as in the city, but there are enough lovely people.
I tossed and turned in bed for a long time before I fell asleep.
I dreamed of the dragon in the mountains, which finally swam into the sea, and the butterflies that escaped with those blood jades and the white sand that was trapped.
This trip to Wulong Mountain made me physically and mentally exhausted, but I also saw a lot of strange things. The trip to Wulong Mountain is also coming to an end, and when I wake up tomorrow morning, I will take a flight back to Xianyang.
After returning to Xianyang, I will be the first bullet for the Zhang family to enter the direction of archaeology.
In fact, I also understand that the second brother doesn't have to work so hard and bother, because most of the foundation of the Zhang family has been shattered as early as the reverse operation five years ago.
Most of the elders died in the grave, and those who did not die were arrested and shot in prison. It was the second brother who supported the crippled Zhang family, who had worked hard all these years to support it, and wanted to completely whitewash and revive the Zhang family.
This is all due to the influence of my grandfather, who paid attention to the inheritance of the Zhang family's bloodline during his lifetime. The second brother has been by my father's side since he can remember, so my father's spirit is completely inherited by the second brother, so that the second brother is now stubborn towards the Zhang family.
He could have taken his family money back then and started a serious business on his own, although his life would not be as rich as it is now. But you don't have to hang your head on the waistband of your trousers often, and you have to worship a Buddha every time you work in the field.
.....
When she woke up the next morning, it was only six o'clock in the morning, and Cha Sisi had already woken up, and she was about to go to the mountains to chop wood as usual with a knife.
"I'm ready to go...."
"Hmm..... Oh. ”
Cha Sisi's cold attitude made me wonder, and I was a little overwhelmed when I looked at her.
Scratching my head, I said, "You.... Do you want to go down the mountain with us, if you are not familiar with the life outside, you can also take care of you after going down the mountain. ”
"Forget it, my dad doesn't know about you paying off the debt, and now I'm gone....."
I nodded, and didn't force her anymore.
After that, Cha Sisi went to the mountains to chop wood, while I folded the clothes that Cha Youping gave me and put them on his bed, and then went to Zhuo Sang's house to find the second brother and them.
When I arrived at Zhuo Sang's house, I found that the second brother had already packed up his things, and several people were sitting in the house smoking.
Seeing me coming, the second brother called me and told me that it was an eleven o'clock flight in the morning. However, it is still necessary to give the blood jade to the guys in the logistics hall first, and let them transport it back by land, because they will definitely not be able to pass through the security check of the plane with the blood jade.
I had breakfast at Zhuo Sang's house, and when it was about eight o'clock, two jeeps drove outside the village. Master Cao said that this was the car of the Logistics Hall, and he came to pick us up and take the blood jade by the way.
Before leaving, I went to Cha Sisi's house again and found that she and Cha Youping were not at home. I was a little disappointed, and I didn't have a chance to say goodbye to them before leaving.
When we all got into the car, I suddenly saw a figure from the stockade running towards us quickly, and I hurriedly called out to the guy who was driving: "Stop, stop!" ”
The guy who was driving hurriedly braked, and I could see the person clearly, it was Cha Sisi!
When she ran to our car, I found that she had changed her clothes, from Miao clothes to civilian clothes, and carried a cloth bag that seemed to be sewn by herself, which was bulging inside.
Cha Sisi panted and held his knees, took a few breaths, and said to me, "Zhiqiu..... Can you take me down the mountain? ”
I was extremely surprised: "Why are you suddenly going down the mountain with us, did you tell Uncle Cha?" ”
"When Daddy came back in the morning, I told him that I wanted to go down the mountain, and he supported me..... By the way, he also asked me to thank you for paying off our family's debts. ”
I glanced at my second brother, who just nodded to me gently, and then turned his head away and closed his eyes to recuperate.
"Then don't stand, get in the car....."
Cha Sisi and I got into the same car, and I looked at her carefully; After Cha Sisi changed into civilian clothes, she could hardly tell that she was a Miao girl, and she was a big beauty.
Dawu was also sitting in a car with us, and he joked to Cha Sisi: "Sister Sisi, where are you going to go after you go down the mountain?" If you don't go back to Shaanxi with my third master, he will definitely be willing.... You say yes, Third Master? ”
I was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Don't listen to his nonsense, I'll let someone take you where you want to go down the mountain." ”
Cha Sisi smiled at me, she stroked her hair and said, "If I can, I want to go to Xianyang with you...."
......
After getting on the plane, Cha Sisi sat next to me, and I am still in a trance. We were all still in our room in Miao Village last night, but we had already boarded the plane back to Shaanxi together for a few hours.
"Zhiqiu, why do they call your brother and your second and third masters? They look older than the two of you, right? Could it be that this is the complex generation of your Han people? ”
Along the way, Dawu and Master Cao took a bite to say the second master and the third master, which made Cha Sisi puzzled for a long time, because there were many people on the road, but now that we are alone, she doesn't have so many scruples.
"This.... It has nothing to do with seniority, mainly the relationship between status and identity, and the 'master' in their mouth is not a relationship between juniors and juniors, but an honorific title. I thought about it for a moment and added: "It's like in ancient times, the servants of the landlord's family would call the master of the house and the young master the master of the young family.....
Cha Sisi nodded thoughtfully, and just when I thought she had let go of the question, she suddenly looked up and asked me, "Actually, you're not an archaeologist at all....., are you?" Can you tell me the truth, what exactly does your family do? ”
