Chapter 553: The more beautiful a man is, the more likely he is to lie
Ah ning’s uncontrollable cries were mixed in with the flying snow. Everyone felt bad and no one spoke. They just walked quickly to the muddy road at the foot of the mountain.
They could stop the minibus from here to the town, but the bus would only pass by at 8 am. If they missed it, they would have to wait another day.
Eldest uncle’s family of three saw her off. Eldest uncle instructed his mother-in-law in a Fang Yan while Feng GUI and Shen Ruyi walked over to comfort ah ning.
“Ning, you have to be good. Next year, I’ll take care of you,”
Shen Ruyi wiped away the tears on the little girl’s face and said with heartache.
Ah ning’s expression was blank, and she was no longer as lively as before. Although she was in Chen hansheng’s arms, her eyes were staring behind her, probably expecting her mother to suddenly appear on a hillside.
After his great-uncle and mother-in-law finished talking, he walked towards Chen hansheng and Shen youchu and said in the local language,””Granny, you must take good care of her.”
“I know ~”
Shen youchu replied softly in Chuan Yu dialect.
His great uncle was very polite to Chen hansheng. After all, his daughter and son-in-law would have to make a living under him in the future. He took out some tobacco leaves and white paper, wiped his saliva, rolled them up, and said, ” have a smoke. Try the tobacco leaves in the mountains.
The drooling process was completed right in front of his eyes. Even if Chen hansheng did not mind eating meat or vegetables, it was still a little difficult for him to accept. He was thinking of taking it first and then throwing it away quietly.
Who knew that because of the cold weather, the edges of the cigarette would actually spread out. His great uncle frowned and gave the curled edge a hard ” TUI ” before firmly sticking it together.
“F * ck you!”
Chen hansheng’s Adam’s apple bobbed. When his great uncle handed him the bottle again, Chen hansheng weighed ah ning in his arms and shook his head, “”Forget it. I have a habit of not smoking in front of the children.”
“You were smoking last night. Ning was there too.”
The honest big uncle immediately found a loophole.
“I’ve just picked up this habit.”
Chen hansheng replied calmly.
“Oh,”
His great-uncle felt that something was wrong, but he heard a honk not far away. The old minibus was swaying over.
Time was of the essence, and they could only pick the most important things to say. Great uncle patted Chen hansheng on the shoulder and said, “”Ruyi and ah GUI, I’ll have to trouble you with them.”
“You’re welcome,”
Chen hansheng supported his mother-in-law and said, “”Dog and big cat, I’ll have to trouble you too.”
“Oh, sure.”
Her great uncle was a little dumbfounded. That was true, but it sounded a little weird. It was like ” you help me take care of my cat and dog, and I help you take care of your daughter and son-in-law.
Before Chen hansheng got into the car, he thought about it and threw the remaining half of Zhonghua to his great uncle.
“Don’t get addicted. These cigarettes are expensive. Otherwise, all the money your daughter and son-in-law earn will be used to buy you cigarettes.”
Chen hansheng said loudly.
“I know, I know.”
The bus gradually left, leaving only eldest great uncle, Shen Ruyi and Feng GUI waving their hands reluctantly.
“Don’t forget to give eggy and big cat an extra meal tonight.”
On the way back, eldest great uncle suddenly reminded his daughter.
“Why?”
“We’re barely full.” Feng GUI did not understand.
“What do you know?”
“From today onwards, they’ll be another life for you,” his great uncle said with emotion.
······
Ah ning got on the bus, still looking out hopefully. However, there was no sign of his mother. After the bus turned, even his eldest uncle’s family was gone.
Ah ning pouted and couldn’t help but cry again.
Shen youchu held her in his arms and coaxed her softly. Not long after, ah ning fell asleep in the bumpy carriage. When she opened her eyes again, she found that both sides of the road were lined with low-rise houses and bustling figures. It was no longer the endless snow in the mountains.
“Sister, have we reached the town?”
Ning asked as he leaned against the window.
“Yes, we’re almost at the stop.”
“Do you want some water?” Shen youchu asked as he took out a thermos.
“I’m not thirsty.”
The little girl obediently lay in Shen youchu’s arms and looked at Chen hansheng, who was snoring beside her.
“Brother is asleep.”
Ah ning whispered into Shen youchu’s ear.
