After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again
Chapter 104 Returning Home (30)
Seeing that Tao Junle agreed to her conditions, Tong Jia's burden disappeared instantly.
Yang Guo was also raised by Xiaolongnu. In the end, they were able to put aside the worldly affairs and be together. If I really find that I have other feelings for Tao Junle besides the love between a sister and a brother, I should also have the courage to face it.
But at this stage, she is not escaping, she really doesn't have it.
After talking about this matter, Tong Jia originally wanted Tao Junle to continue staying in the RV and have a good rest.
However, he was unconscious for quite some time, and the time for the two of them to enter the RV had already come, so they were quickly ejected from the RV.
After being ejected, Tong Jia took out two blankets from the RV and wrapped Tao Junle tightly.
Then she calculated the time and waited for twelve o'clock to arrive. When the time came, she took Tao Junle back into the RV and put him on the bed.
She said gently, "Le Le, your fever has just subsided and it's still cold outside, so don't come out and have a good rest inside.
There are food and drinks in this cart. When you wake up, eat what’s in it first.”
"Sister, where are you going?" Tao Junle asked, grabbing Tong Jia who was about to get up.
Tong Jia replied, "When I was chasing you here, I saw Pan Meiying. Her destination should be the provincial capital.
In order to catch up with you, I took her car.
Although I have temporarily stopped her from traveling today, I am worried that she will go to the provincial capital early tomorrow morning.
Yang Jixia and the others were still moving her warehouse, and if they bumped into them, wouldn't that be walking into a trap?
You take your rest, I will ride back overnight and notify Yang Jixia and the others to evacuate immediately.
If you really can't move all those things, then don't move them all and just burn them all.
Don't think too much and take a rest quickly.
You have to come out before we get there, so don't let me down if you don't get enough rest."
Tao Junle originally wanted to say something to persuade her, but after hearing Tong Jia's last words, he immediately lay down obediently, covered himself with a quilt, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
Seeing that he was obedient, Tong Jia smiled and touched his forehead before leaving the RV.
Although she had almost twisted the handlebars of the lithium battery bicycle, the speed still felt slow to her.
Taking shortcuts are all rugged mountain roads, and the advantages of the car cannot be fully utilized.
After avoiding the county town where Pan Meiying's car was stolen, Tong Jia took the main road instead of the small road in order to speed up his return to the provincial capital.
He used the master key that had been prepared in the RV, drove the county governor's car at the county government and left.
The car drove all the way to the gate of the provincial capital. At this time, the sky was already slightly bright.
She used a vacuum cleaner to clean the county governor's car, making sure not a single hair of hers fell inside, and then covered the car with some dry branches.
After doing all this, she entered the RV. Just as she changed her clothes, the time was up, and she and Tao Junle were thrown out of the RV at the same time.
Six o'clock in the morning was also the time when the provincial capital opened the city gates. After the two of them packed up a little, it was time for the city gates to open.
After the first group entered the provincial capital, they went straight to the Zhang family's house closest to the city gate.
Sure enough, Yang Jixia and the others were still moving things. It was not because they lacked physical strength, but because there were limited vehicles and insufficient transportation capacity.
There were too many things here, and what made Tong Jia speechless was that they even moved away a lot of tables, chairs and benches in the house.
Looking at the Zhang family's house which had become much emptier, Tong Jia sighed helplessly.
She said to Yang Jixia, "Hurry up and take down all those tables, chairs and everything.
Are these the important things? Food, meat, cotton clothes, guns and ammunition are the important things!
On my way to your hometown, I met Pan Meiying. She was coming to the provincial capital. In order to stop her, I stole her car.
Finding a car might delay her for a while, but she would definitely arrive in the provincial capital by this afternoon at the latest.
Don’t take those junk, take the important ones and put aside the unimportant ones.
It's almost dawn, and this is the last trip. If we can't take anything, we'll just have to burn it."
After hearing this, Yang Jixia realized the seriousness of the matter and quickly asked others to move down all the tables, chairs and benches, and move the food first.
After giving the order, the others, who had slowed down due to being busy all night, also sped up.
While the others were moving things, Yang Jixia saw Tao Junle following closely beside Tong Jia and smiled, saying, "Have the siblings reconciled?
That's right. Normally, you two are inseparable. When I suddenly can't see you two together, I always feel like something is wrong.
Don't worry, our two vehicles have already made four trips tonight.
Guns, ammunition, cotton-padded clothes, quilts, gold and jewelry were all taken away, and a truckload of food had just been taken away.
Now there is one car left, and they want to pack some tables, chairs and benches to take back for their own use, so I didn't object.
If we load another car, there shouldn’t be many left.”
That being said, after all the packing was done, there were still two jars of bacon and five jars of pickled vegetables left.
In addition, there were thirty sausages hung on each hook, twenty in each, which was too much to fit in. Even in the driver's seat, it was difficult to stuff more sausages in. If I moved the steering wheel, the sausages would fall out.
Tong Jia asked the brothers who came to move the things to take away a bunch of sausages each. She, Yang Jixia, and Tao Junle also took a bunch each. The rest were put into the RV while Yang Jixia went to other houses to set fire to destroy the traces.
Tong Jia even carefully checked the small gold nuggets and rice grains that fell during the transportation process and collected them all, not leaving a single one for Pan Meiying.
After Yang Jixia and the others lit the fire, they left the tunnel together and all came out from the house closest to the city gate.
Then, except for Yang Jixia, Tong Jia, Tao Junle, and the two people who drove, everyone else left the city in batches and came back in the afternoon.
The driver would not come back immediately after delivering the goods. Only Yang Jixia, Tong Jia and Tao Junle went to the bun shop, each carrying a bunch of sausages.
In fact, not one person carried a whole bunch of sausages, because Tao Junle was not tall and had just recovered from a serious illness. Tong Jia was worried that the sausages were too heavy and would crush him, so she took the sausages from his hand and handed them to Yang Jixia.
As they walked, the thing in her hand became a little heavy, so she simply let Yang Jixia hang it around his neck.
The three of them swaggered back to the bun shop. On the way, when someone asked them why they bought so many sausages, Tong Jia's uniform reply was: "To add a dish to the bun shop."
After returning to the bun shop, Tong Jia, who had been extremely nervous for a day and a night, could no longer open his eyes.
But she still remembered that Tao Junle had a fever last night, so she asked Tian Ma to find a doctor for Tao Junle, and then went back to her room to catch up on her sleep.
As for when Pan Meiying will come back, let’s not consider it for now.
Anyway, all the Zhang family houses were burned down. When they came back, they saw many people going to put out the fire.
Because the fire broke out just before dawn, people living nearby discovered it in time and no casualties were caused.
As for the economic losses, Tong Jia also plans to compensate them in other ways.
But for her now, the most important thing is to have a good sleep.
When Tong Jia woke up, it was already time for dinner.
Tian Ma and Tao Junle came with trays and knocked on the door several times, but no one answered. Just when they thought Tong Jia would sleep until the next morning, she finally came to open the door.
Seeing Tong Jia coming to see the door, Tian's mother said: "You finally opened the door. I've been sleeping so well because of you.
I haven’t eaten for a day, so I’ll quickly eat something good, then go to the yard to digest the food, and then come back to sleep.
If you can't sleep, just lie down. Otherwise, your days and nights will be reversed, which is not good for your health."
For dinner, they had mutton and carrot buns made by Tian Ma, which they only ate among themselves and did not sell to the outside.
Tong Jia took a bite and felt that it was quiet outside. She looked at Tian Ma and Tao Junle and asked, "Everyone is asleep, why is it so quiet?"
The two shook their heads at the same time. Tao Junle just raised his hand to gesture, but Tian Ma held it down. She said, "They all went across the street. Your eldest uncle looks honest, but I didn't expect him to be a hidden talent."
"What's wrong?" Tong Jia asked while eating a bun, and picked up another one to ask Tao Junle if he wanted to eat more.
Tian Ma glanced at Tao Junle and said, "Lele, go outside and see if they've all returned. Our bun shop has been soft-opening for a few days and will officially open tomorrow. We need to rest and recuperate today."
Tao Junle looked at Tong Jia, and Tong Jia nodded at him, so he reluctantly left Tong Jia's room.
After Tian Ma sent him out of the room, she closed the door and walked to Tong Jia with some excitement. She whispered in her ear, "Someone from my hometown is here. I heard it's a big shot like the clan leader.
He brought two people wrapped like mummies and came to Yang Jichun to ask for money.
They said they had agreed beforehand that they would be given thirty silver dollars a month and that the couple would take turns accompanying the two men at least ten times.
This month passed, and the two men only went there twice, and fainted at their doorstep, suffering from severe frostbite.
This time, I came here to get back the money I paid in advance, the medical expenses for my treatment in the hospital, and the subsequent treatment expenses."
"The couple at the same time..." Tong Jia was shocked.
When she saw two men appear at the door of Yang's house, she thought that Yang Jichun had betrayed his wife. Later, when she came back, she saw Yang Jichun limping, so she thought he had betrayed her.
Unexpectedly, he seemed quiet but was very decisive and directly betrayed both himself and his wife.
Thinking of Yang's eldest sister-in-law's poor memory, she asked again, "Is it possible that her wife doesn't know about this?"
Tian's mother nodded and said, "Yes, her memory is fickle. Apart from her two children and her husband, she may not be able to remember other people's memories at any time.
Lao Yang went over to discuss things, and many people from the clan came with him. In order to show more strength, I asked Diao Ren and the others to go over as well.
Xiaoting didn't go. I asked her to watch the fire on the stove.
Are you going out to watch the fun, or just stroll around the yard?"
Tong Jia didn't want to meet other members of the Yang family, but she still had to pay back the money she had borrowed from the patriarch.
She asked Tian Ma to call Tao Junle back, gave him some money, and asked him to give it to Yang Jixia, who would then return it to the clan leader.
It is better for Yang Jixia to handle the Yang family’s affairs himself.
She walked around the yard and confirmed that Xiaoting was staying safely in the kitchen watching the fire. Tong Jia pulled Tian Ma to her room and told her about her discoveries in the county town where the Yang family lived and that the eldest daughter of the Zhang family was Pan Meiying's subordinate. She then expressed her suspicion of Xiaoting and asked Tian Ma to pay more attention to Xiaoting's words and deeds.
Tian's mother also has many years of experience in struggle. Even if she likes Xiaoting privately and treats her as her own daughter, she is still very cautious when it comes to issues concerning the organization.
She thought carefully about how she got along with Xiaoting after she met her.
He told Tong Jia confidently: "Since she came back, I haven't carried out any missions. I even hid my weapons in the cracks of the wall during the renovation.
He should not have revealed any flaws in front of her.
Since I have doubts about her, I will keep a closer eye on her. Regardless of whether she is Pan Meiying's partner or not, I will strive to confirm her identity as soon as possible."
Tong Jia nodded. It was indeed necessary to confirm her identity as soon as possible, otherwise many things would be difficult to handle later.
After knowing that Xiaoting might have a hidden identity, Tian's mother did not stay in Tong Jia's room for long and went straight to the kitchen with the tray.
After handing Xiaoting's matter over to Tian Ma, Tong Jia couldn't think of what to do to pass the time. Her curiosity suddenly arose, so she walked into the hall of the bun shop and entered Yang Jixia's room. Looking down from the window, she could just see the situation at the hotel.
Yang Jichun's wife was not there, only Yang Jichun was kneeling on the ground. Yang Jixia and the old man who gave Tong Jia money were standing together, as if they were discussing a solution to the matter.
Because Yang Jixia didn't have that much money himself, and he couldn't use the mission funds.
He discussed with the clan leader, "Clan leader, I have used up all my money in selling the shop. I really don't have any cash left now. It is impossible for me to pay it all in one lump sum.
I'll suggest a solution. Please consider it. If you think it's suitable, could you please discuss it with the two families?
All the things that happened at the beginning were blamed on Yang Jiqiu who had passed away. In addition, Tong Jia asked Tao Junle to send all the money and interest over. The clan leader now likes Yang Jixia quite a bit and is naturally willing to give him this face.
He said nothing and motioned Yang Jixia to continue.
Yang Jixia said: "We are going to open a hotel here. There is not much else, but there are a lot of rooms.
Since the two families said they can't take care of themselves in the future and need someone to take care of them, let them stay. I will have someone take care of them. We will take care of their daily eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping, so their families don't have to worry about anything.
Then, I gave each family twenty silver dollars as compensation for hospitalization.
As for the monthly compensation in the future, I really cannot afford it now. If it really doesn't work out, I will ask each family to send one person to work in the hotel, and pay them according to the hotel's business performance.
How about this, huh?"
The patriarch went to discuss with the two families, and finally both sides reached an agreement.
The two incapable people were left behind, under the care of Yang Jichun and his men, living in the upper rooms of the inn. In addition to a one-time payment of twenty silver dollars to each family, another fifteen silver dollars were paid every three months. Neither family wanted to provide labor, only the money.
Yang Jixia thought about his savings and nodded helplessly. This solved the problem.
