After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again
Chapter 102 Returning Home (28)
Selfishly, Tao Junle didn't want to separate from Tong Jia.
But he also understood that in the current situation, the overall situation should be given priority.
So, no matter how reluctant he was in his heart, he did not show it in public.
Especially when Guo Xin patted his shoulder with great care, he also actively responded to Guo Xin with a sunny smile.
But after Guo Xin left, his expression became increasingly grim.
When they went to the market to hire someone to work as a servant at home, he didn't need to give any opinions. Tong Jia and Yang Jixia were the ones who discussed it all the way.
The way the two people were discussing something was very irritating to Tao Junle.
When he thought about how he had been trying so hard to be with Tong Jia all the time, and Tong Jia actually had a little secret that he didn't know about, he felt a little upset.
This emotion continued until Yang Jixia took the three people he hired in the market to the hotel to find out the situation, and Tong Jia took him to the bun shop, and it reached its peak in his heart.
The two were supposed to go back to their respective rooms, but Tao Junle rushed into Tong Jia's room the moment she closed the door.
Without giving Tong Jia any room to transition, he started signing to her directly.
{Sister, you promised me that no matter what happens in the future, no matter what unexpected situations arise, we will be together.
But what about now? You let me lead the way for Brother Guo, and you and Yang Jixia go somewhere else.
Let's not talk about the fact that you've been keeping secrets from me all the time we've been together. Did you deliberately send me away this time because you wanted to cultivate a relationship with Yang Jixia and you thought I was an eyesore?
A huge pot was suddenly dropped on Tong Jia, and she was unable to react for a moment.
She glanced at Tao Junle, then looked outside the door, quickly closed the door, and pulled Tao Junle inside.
Just as he was about to retort, he remembered that they were still unsure about Xiaoting's identity, and he was also worried that if he revealed his secret in the heat of the moment, others would hear it.
Tong Jia opened her mouth and closed it again, then used sign language to start arguing with Tao Junle.
{Tao Junle, according to your actual age, you are no longer a child and should be able to distinguish priorities.
What is the situation now? How can you only think about personal commitments?
The things at the Yang family's place were discovered by the two of us together. If I hadn't made an unexpected discovery on the way back, I would definitely have accompanied you this time.
But I was the only one who knew about that unexpected discovery. Shouldn't I seize the time and take people over to move things? Instead, do I have to wait until I go to the Yang family with you before coming back to deal with things here?
What if someone else finds out?
Do you know how important a quilt is to those who are on a long march now?
The sooner we can get these things into their hands, the less people they will sacrifice. Isn't this more meaningful than anything else?
Tong Jia hasn't figured out how to correctly guide Tao Junle to correctly view the emotional issues between the two of them, so this time she didn't plan to talk about it, she just wanted to educate him in the most straightforward way.
But her first sentence caused Tao Junle's long-lost inferiority and sensitivity to erupt.
He gestured and said, "Yes, I am sick, I am not a normal person."
Is it because I'm sick that you don't like me and always want to get rid of me?
If I hadn't been following you all these years, would you have abandoned me long ago?
You are both normal people, you are, and Yang Jixia is too. You two are a couple, and I am like a clown standing between you.
You, like my uncle and aunt, also dislike me as a burden, right?
This is an exaggeration. In Tong Jia's previous life, after his parents passed away, he had to sell his house and buy an RV to wander around because of the greed of various relatives.
What annoyed her most were those vampire relatives, especially those like Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao, who were scum who would harm their brothers and sisters for money.
Tao Junle's words now are undoubtedly an insult to her personality.
Tong Jia, who could no longer control her emotions, slammed the table in anger.
She was about to speak, but her hand was so painful that she shook it off. Tao Junle also noticed that her hand was hurting and wanted to go forward to check her hand, but was pushed away by Tong Jia.
Tong Jia said, "I don't need you to be hypocritical here.
You said I looked down on you, wanted to get rid of you, and didn't want you anymore.
Do you think the requests you made are what a normal brother should make to his sister?
I don't deny that I didn't want to take you with me at first, but after getting along with you, I really treated you as my younger brother.
But what about you? Tao Junle, ask yourself, do you really think of me as your sister?
Are the requests you made to me really appropriate between siblings?"
When Tao Junle heard this, his face turned pale instantly.
He thought he had hidden his emotions very well, but he didn't expect that Tong Jia had already noticed the shameful secret feelings in his heart.
Now he regrets it very much and wishes he could go back a few minutes to beat his impulsive self to death.
As long as his feelings for Tong Jia were not exposed, he could continue to stay with Tong Jia as her younger brother. But now it has been exposed, and Tong Jia took the initiative to expose it. How can he have the face to stay in the future?
I was originally a desperate little beggar, sick, penniless, and with a deep hatred.
Not only did Tong Jia not despise him, he took him in, avenged him, taught him skills, and treated him like his own brother.
He had dirty thoughts about Tong Jia in his heart, and anyone who knew about it would call him an ungrateful person.
He wanted to hold Tong Jia's hand, but he was afraid that Tong Jia would push him away in disgust, and then he would really lose all his dignity.
He raised his arms, but ultimately didn't dare to pull Tong Jia, as if he had lost the strength to even touch the corner of Tong Jia's clothes.
He lowered his head, holding back the tears in his eyes, bowed to Tong Jia, then turned and left.
When he was about to open the door, Tong Jia pressed it shut and asked, "Where are you going? Don't forget, once Lao Guo finds someone, you still have to lead them."
The light that had just appeared in Tong Jia's eyes when she pressed the door turned dim as Tong Jia finished speaking.
He nodded silently, gesturing, "Don't worry, sister. I won't delay anything important."
After the gesture, he opened the door and went out.
Tong Jia was angry, but she believed that he would keep his word, so she did not try to stop him from leaving.
Guo Xin acted quickly. It felt like it took only two hours for him to find two groups of people, all waiting for them outside the suburbs.
This made Tong Jia wonder whether the organization in the provincial capital had been established, so she directly asked about her doubts.
Yang Jixia shook his head and said, "How could a provincial system be established so quickly? It's only the provincial capital that has begun to take shape. The counties and cities below still need to be laid out slowly. It won't be that fast."
Tong Jia nodded and followed him to the suburbs.
Yang Jixia looked at Tong Jia, then turned back to look at Tao Junle who was walking with Guo Xin, and nudged Tong Jia's arm with his elbow.
Tong Jia was thinking about something and didn't feel Yang Jixia touching her at all. She just kept walking forward with concentration.
Yang Jixia had no choice but to pat her shoulder directly. Tong Jia was startled and paused, but her body did not stop due to inertia.
Seeing that she was about to fall forward, Yang Jixia quickly took two steps forward to support her.
Tong Jia also instinctively wanted to control her body. When she was about ten centimeters away from falling into Yang Jixia's arms, she controlled her body balance and did not have direct close contact with Yang Jixia.
But because of the visual angle, in the eyes of Guo Xin and Tao Junle, the two people were hugging each other very intimately.
Seeing this scene, Tao Junle's face turned ugly, but Guo Xin laughed heartily.
Guo Xin thought Tao Junle was worried that his sister would be taken away, and he tried to comfort him, but Tao Junle didn't listen to anything. Only one sentence echoed in his mind, which was: My sister doesn't need me anymore, I should leave.
After Tong Jia stood up straight, Yang Jixia also took two steps back, keeping the best safe distance from Tong Jia.
He asked, "Have you two sisters been worried about something lately? Why are you both so absent-minded?"
"Hmm, huh? We are brother and sister? How did you find out that we both have something on our minds?" Tong Jia asked.
Yang Jixia smiled and said, "You, you are said to be cunning, but in fact, sometimes you are quite open about things, especially when you are in front of people you think are harmless, then whatever you are thinking is almost shown on your face.
It's easy for others to find out that you have something on your mind.
As for Lele, he can't speak and is usually ignored by everyone. It is really not easy to find out that he has something on his mind.
But he has a weakness, and that is you.
You may not have noticed that whenever I get close to you, his eyes are like radars, and he can almost immediately lock onto me as a target, as if he will fight me to the death if I make you unhappy.
But you see now, it has taken quite some time from the time we left to get here.
We have been walking together. Just now, you almost fell down, but he didn't come over. We almost hugged each other, and I could still feel the sense of being watched.
It can be seen that he has something on his mind, and it is not a small matter.
Did you two... have a fight?
You said you are the same. You are a sister and an adult. Why are you angry with a child?
You don't act like an adult at all!"
Tong Jia rolled her eyes at Yang Jixia, then turned her gaze towards Guo Xin and Tao Junle.
Guo Xin tried to put his arm around Tao Junle's shoulders and say something, but Tao Junle resisted and used his arm to block Guo Xin from getting close. Then he walked at the front of the team, doing his duty of leading the way without looking around.
Guo Xin was not annoyed. Instead, he chased after him with a smile, wanting to continue making Tao Junle happy.
Tong Jia sighed and began to reflect on whether what she had said to Tao Junle before was too harsh.
I thought that when I get back, I should apologize to Tao Junle and have a calm and frank talk with him.
They soon reached the suburbs, where two groups of people were already waiting. Tong Jia and Yang Jixia led a group of people walking in one direction, while Guo Xin and Tao Junle led a group of people walking towards the city gate.
Because there were too many people leaving the city, everyone couldn't go out together, so they went out in batches of two or three people at a time.
Guo Xin originally wanted to be the first to take Tao Junle out of the city, but he stood there, staring at Tong Jia with slightly greedy eyes, and refused to leave.
In the end, he had no choice but to let others go first, and he and Tao Junle would leave the city last.
Even when he was leaving the city, Tao Junle kept looking back at Tong Jia.
Especially after they left the city, when Tao Junle looked back, it felt like the last look. It was as if he had to see Tong Jia and imprint her in his mind.
Tong Jia had been avoiding Tao Junle's sight, but when he looked at her after he left the city, she saw it clearly. When their eyes met, it actually gave her a feeling of farewell.
She shook her head and told herself not to think too much. After Guo Xin moved the things away, Tao Junle would follow him back.
Yang Jixia looked towards the city gate until he could no longer see Guo Xin and Tao Junle, then he pushed Tong Jia.
He said: "You are an adult now, how can you hold a grudge against your own brother?
Let’s go, let’s get down to business first. After that, you should apologize to Lele.
No matter who was wrong initially, as an adult, you failed to control your emotions, and that was your mistake.
Let's go, you lead the way."
Tong Jia rolled her eyes to the sky, turned around and took people to the Zhang family's house.
As she walked out of the door, she began to order people to move the ladder, and Yang Jixia hurriedly stopped her.
He asked, "You said you found the supplies when you were free, but I thought they were in a cave in the suburbs. Why are you taking us to search someone's yard?"
This won't do. The nature of the thing has changed. We can confiscate and use ownerless things, but this is blatant theft."
Tong Jia said angrily: "This is a secret base of Pan Meiying. The eldest daughter of the Zhang family was one of the people who learned makeup from me in the villa in Shanghai.
Now that you have decided to have such a background, will you use the things in it to fight against our comrades?
If you are really so noble, please go back.
There are secret passages inside, and different secret passages connect to different houses. There are guns and ammunition, food, cotton clothes, cotton boots and thick quilts.
You are aloof, so just stay outside and don't come in.
Other brothers, if any of you cannot bear to see our brothers suffering on the long march, follow me in. Now that there is no one guarding us, we should take as much as we can. If we really can't take anything, we will burn it or blow it up, and we can't leave it for Pan Meiying and her group.
it's OK? "
"Okay!" Except for Tong Jia and Yang Jixia, everyone else answered in unison.
Yang Jixia said, "If you had told me earlier that this was Pan Meiying's secret base, I would have said nothing.
I opposed it before because I thought it was something that ordinary people would have.
But are you sure there's no one inside? How about... you lead the way, and Xiao Li and I will go in with you to check out the situation.
It's not easy for us brothers to come here, so we must not be defeated all at once."
Tong Jia understood Yang Jixia's concerns, so she took the lead in climbing over the wall and led everyone to walk through all the routes.
In the end, she calmly tore off the Doraemon stickers she had been wearing. No one noticed her actions as they were stunned by so many supplies.
She originally wanted to help move things, but she kept seeing Tao Junle's eyes looking at her outside the city gate.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the dead kid might never come back after leading the way.
She was so anxious that she said to Yang Jixia directly, "You are familiar with the route here, so I won't stay any longer.
You are right, I am an adult and cannot get angry with a child.
I'd better catch up with Lele and the others and apologize to Lele, so that he won't delay Lao Guo's business because of his anger.
You guys move, I'm leaving first."
