Fall in a second

The stations in the county town are relatively small, which is incomparable to those in metropolitan cities. Even the exits are much simpler. The ticket inspector at the gates gave them a perfunctory glance and then let them pass. Ji Youqing felt quite surprised.

"Aren't they afraid of fare evasion?"

"Normally not, it's like trust between people." Lu Ming smiled and asked again: "Are we going to the city now?"

Ji Youqing nodded lightly, stopped a taxi that was trying to solicit customers without saying a word, and told the driver where he was going after getting in the car.

Sitting in the car, Lu Ming first sent a WeChat message to her mother to report that she was safe, saying that she had arrived at the station, and now she would go to the city with Aunt Ji.

As a result, the phone call came back after a while.

"Aren't you going home for lunch?"

"Should... maybe... no." Lu Ming glanced tentatively at the people beside him and said, "You don't have to wait for us for lunch, we won't be able to go back for a while."

"Well, you can have fun with her in the county, and I'll ask your dad to prepare dinner early."

"Well, I see."

Hanging up the phone with a smile, Lu Ming put away the phone, turned around and found that Aunt Ji was looking out of the window, she seemed to be fascinated, and couldn't help asking: "What are you looking at?"

"Tell me, did my parents come to this county when they came to this place?"

Lu Ming shook her head: "I don't know too well, but I can ask Granny Deng in the village for you when I go back."

"Grandma Deng?" Ji Youqing had a flash of doubt.

"She is the oldest old man in our village, so she should know more about what happened 18 years ago."

"I'm just curious, it doesn't matter if I can't ask." Ji Youqing smiled.

"It would be great if grandpa was still there. I heard that grandpa and Aunt Ji's father had a life-and-death relationship. He must know a lot of things." Lu Ming couldn't help but said.

Because the county seat is not big, even driving across the whole city takes only 10 minutes, so the taxi took them to their destination almost in the blink of an eye.

During the winter vacation, the shopping mall was crowded with crowds. Lu Ming couldn't help but took out her mobile phone to take a picture of the spectacle and send it to Ah Chu. She didn't forget to give her a location and told her that she had arrived home.

Maybe it's because of the prosperity of the big cities and the magnificence of the big shopping malls. When she came back here again, Lu Ming's heart was calmer and she didn't feel anything.

They first walked around the first floor, but they couldn't find the brand of underwear that Aunt Ji often bought. Lu Ming said with a little embarrassment, "It may be that our place is too small, and such brands have not entered."

"It's okay." Ji Youqing smiled: "As long as it's not too bad, you can wear it."

In the end, I bought a few sets in an underwear store to change and wash, because Ji Youqing didn't bring anything with her when she went out in a hurry, and she had nothing but a bag on her body. There was also XX underwear written on the bag, a little ashamed, just two steps out of the store, Ji Youqing walked up behind Lu Ming and called her to stop.

"Is there any extra space in your backpack?"

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what was coming, "Yes, the first layer of zipper can be opened to put it."

Ji Youqing pursed her lips and stopped talking, reached out to open the zipper, and then stuffed the underwear in. Lu Ming stood there with her back turned and stood motionless. She could feel the strength of Aunt Ji's hand and stuffed the underwear into her bag Feeling, thinking about it is inexplicably a little embarrassing.

"Okay." Ji Youqing said, "Do you need me to get you the bag?"

"No, no, no, it's not heavy at all." Lu Ming said as he dragged the suitcase with his bag on his back.

Ji Youqing was a little unnatural, avoiding Lu Ming's eyes and said: "Are you hungry, let's find a place to eat first."

"It seems to be upstairs, I just saw it on the sign." Lu Ming said.

After choosing a restaurant to be seated, after Lu Ming finished ordering, Ji Youqing asked the waiter some of her own requirements, and the waiter took a small notebook and wrote them down one by one. For them, such a guest is rare in a year .

Ji Youqing also knows that she has a special diet and is demanding when eating out, so she pays a little more as a tip almost every time she checks out.

"Lu Ming's father...does he drink?" Ji Youqing asked suddenly.

"Drink, usually drink a little, but he is not addicted to alcohol, usually just have a drink."

"Very good." Ji Youqing pursed her lips and smiled, and asked again: "Lu Ming's mother, do you usually have something you like to eat?"

After hearing this, Lu Ming thought about it carefully. Although she didn't realize Aunt Ji's intention for asking these questions for the time being, she still answered her like this: "Mom likes to eat fruits more, but it seems that because of me, Mom is not willing to eat those."

"Then we'll go buy some later."

"Ah?" Lu Ming was surprised, a little suddenly.

After lunch, the two went directly to the chain supermarket on the first floor of the shopping mall. In the supermarket, Lu Ming was in charge of pushing the shopping cart, and Ji Youqing was in charge of shopping, buying toiletries, wine, and fruits. Later, Ji Youqing planned to buy another set of skin care products for Lu Ming's mother, but she looked down on the small brands in the supermarket and thought it would be shameful to give them away, and she would not even use them herself. He would not take out things to give away, so he simply dismissed this idea for the time being.

After checking out, the teller yelled that the receipt was not taken, and Lu Ming took a step back to pick it up, taking advantage of the situation and lowering her head to take a look.

I bought three bottles of wine from a certain station, costing over 100 yuan, and several hundred dollars for fruit. Only Aunt Ji’s own toiletries cost less than [-] yuan.

This is a bit too much, Lu Ming shyly stuffed the receipt into his pocket, and followed the steps ahead.

"Aunt Ji."

"Huh? What's the matter." Ji Youqing turned around.

"Is it too much to buy?" Lu Ming said guiltily.

"A lot? I don't think it's enough. Are there any other shopping malls here, the ones with special counters?"

Lu Ming shook her head, and then couldn't help asking in a low voice: "How about we go home?" She was worried that if she stayed here, Aunt Ji would buy more things, she felt very sorry, especially the wine, I guess Dad After knowing the price, you will be very scared.

"How to get to your house."

Lu Ming chattered a lot, but the whole process can be summed up in one word, complicated, with three train transfers in between, and it took more than three hours to close to four hours in total.

Ji Youqing took a deep breath and immediately said, "Let's take a taxi."

"what?"

Before Lu Ming could react, Ji Youqing had already walked to the side of the road and stopped a taxi, and asked the driver if he was going to xx village. The driver was a little dazed when he heard that, and asked again in disbelief: "Where is it?"

"XX village." Ji Youqing repeated.

"No, no." The driver waved his hand and drove away without saying a word.

"It's okay, if you can't get a taxi, just go to the station and take a taxi." Ji Youqing turned to comfort Lu Ming.

In fact, Lu Ming is not unhappy, but full of guilt for letting Aunt Ji suffer like this with her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the taxi in front left, it followed one behind, and stopped in front of them and asked, "Where are you going?"

After talking about the location, the driver thought about it for a while, "It will take two hours to take you there, and it will take two hours for me to come back, and I can't get the returning guests to that place..."

The intention of the other party is obvious, as long as the price is right, everything is negotiable.

"That's good, I'll pay three times the price." Ji Youqing said without thinking.

The driver's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately got out of the car and offered to open the trunk for them to put their luggage: "Sit down, sit down, I'll do it."

Finally sat in the car, Ji Youqing, who was not nervous along the way, suddenly felt a little nervous, and her heart was beating in a panic. Lu Ming, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked, "Do you regret coming back with me..."

She really cares about this in her heart. After all, for Aunt Ji who is accustomed to living in a big city, the small place in her hometown has many inconveniences, such as inconvenient shopping and inconvenient transportation. She may encounter various problems in the future.

"No..." Ji Youqing replied without hesitation: "I want to see that place, and also for my sister."

Lu Ming looked up at her, with a feeling of trust in his eyes.

Ji Youqing grinned again: "Before I left, I promised her that I would tell her about that place when I go back."

The car was driving on the provincial road, then on the country road, and gradually began to climb the mountain. Everything around here is still familiar, but in the eyes of Lu Ming, it has changed from green to withered yellow when going out, but when spring begins, everything will recover. return.

Ji Youqing stared out of the window the whole time, looking at the big trees and mountains. She couldn't tell her mood at the moment, but she didn't expect that she would really do it. One day, she would let go of everything and come to this place on her own initiative.

In the past few years when her parents just passed away, Ji Youqing could not hear the relevant words about this place, because in her eyes at the time of rebellion, it was this place that took their lives and her life. Parents, but later Ji Youqing gradually realized that parents really like this place, otherwise they would not want to come here to develop tourism projects, so that more people like this place.

"Little sister, are you a local?" the driver asked in dialect.

"I'm a local." Lu Ming replied friendly in dialect.

"The accent of the person with you doesn't sound like it. He must have come here from another place." The driver murmured.

After hearing this, Lu Ming took the initiative to introduce that Aunt Ji came from City S, and the driver was overwhelmed when he heard that, "City S, rich people."

Ji Youqing half understood, and said with a smile: "I don't have money, it's okay, it's just average."

It's almost here, Lu Ming looked at the road ahead, took out her mobile phone in advance, called her mother, and reported that they will arrive in about ten minutes, so that she and her father will be ready for the first time at home Aunt Ji.

The sun was setting, and with the afterglow of the setting sun, the car drove into the avenue of the village and stopped at the intersection.

After Ji Youqing paid the bill, the driver hurriedly got out of the car to help unload the luggage, and accidentally caught a glimpse of the wine in the bag, and murmured to himself: "You drink hard, you are really rich."

"Is this your home?" Ji Youqing asked, pointing to a family.

Lu Ming smiled and shook her head: "My house is still a little ahead, and we will be there in two steps."

The people in the village couldn't help casting curious glances at them and whispering to each other from time to time. Lu Ming pretended not to see them, and continued to drag Aunt Ji along with the box.

At this time, Ye Zhaoyue and Lu Maochuan came out to greet them together, and the two teams met on the way. Lu Ming happily introduced to Ji Youqing: "There are my parents over there."

Ji Yuqing raised his eyes, subconsciously stunned, as if he had met an acquaintance.
