Chapter 357 Where have everyone gone?

During the bumpy period, Ye Mingxuan opened his eyes and rubbed his confused eyes.

"Master, have you arrived?"

"Mr. Ye, are you awake? Is it cold? Why don't I close the window?"

The driver cared about turning on the lighting on the roof, and the window was only a gap on the driver's side.

"Hmm? It's okay, where are you now?"

The moon is bright outside the car window, and the stars are sparse. Put the window halfway down. The cool night wind makes Ye Mingxuan wake up instantly. Looking into the distance, the night sky in the east has turned white, and the shadows of the trees flying back are graceful, standing on both sides of the rugged mountain road.

"Just just entered Guzhang territory, this section of the mountain road has not been repaired yet, it is a bit bumpy, you have to sit down!"

With the not-so-bright light, Ye Mingxuan saw clearly that the driver was driving. His hair was much bald. From the side, the driver must have experienced vicissitudes and wind and frost, and he couldn't get his hands with gloves.

"Master, how old are you?"

From the surface, Ye Mingxuan thinks that the driver should be over fifty years old, which is Ye Mingxuan’s guess.

"It's almost forty!"

This age made Ye Mingxuan look sideways. The driver turned around and looked at Ye Mingxuan, which also made Ye Mingxuan see the driver clearly. The handsomeness of his youth could be vaguely seen on his vicissitudes of life. It must be the burden of life that has turned the handsome guy from the past into this way.

"Don't be so polite. We're just a commoner. I feel uncomfortable when you, a big star, call me like that."

The driver was sent by Zhang Hangxi to pick up Ye Mingxuan. It can be seen that the driver was not good at speaking, so Ye Mingxuan asked the driver and answered.

"Master's surname?"

"Don't let your surname be Zhang, just call me Lao Zhang!"

"Brother Zhang, do you have children?"

"Well, two children, the older one is in high school this year, and the younger one is in the second grade of elementary school, and they are daughters."

Speaking of the two children, Lao Zhang opened up and a little smile appeared on his face.

"The boss is sensible and has good grades. My mother and I are much more worry-free. We are also diligent at home. We help her mother do some housework and tutor her sister homework."

"It's pretty good, I have a sister, too."

Thinking of Duoduo who went to school in Beijing, Ye Mingxuan smiled a little. Except for being naughty, everything is good. He missed her very much if he didn't see her for a few days.

"I know, Miss Zhang is your sister, and there is Duoduo. My daughter likes Duoduo very much."

"Brother Zhang, you can take your daughter over to play! It's summer vacation soon?"

Suddenly the car body shook for a while, and Lao Zhang didn't speak for a long time and was in a depressed mood.

Just when Ye Mingxuan thought he was saying the wrong thing and wanted to apologize, Lao Zhang spoke in a dull tone.

"I can't come."

"Why... again? I pay you a travel fee, and you can also go to Beijing to see the national flag raising. I pay for it!"

"It's not about money, girl... she... just blames her for being unlucky!"

"Brother Zhang, are you okay? If you have something to say, it will be much better if you say it!"

A forty-year-old man suddenly burst into tears. What else can I do besides the pressure of life and my relatives?

"I used to be a fruit business. I have been doing more than ten years and have saved a lot of money. The boss used to be naughty but still sensible. Erya's life is miserable. Last year, a regular physical examination was found to be Erya... Erya has blood cancer, she is only eight years old!"

Lao Zhang was excited and his car body swayed. Fortunately, it was very late at dawn and there was a muddy mountain road. There were no people. Even so, it scared Ye Mingxuan.

Lao Zhang also knew that he was indeed a little excited just now, but when he thought of his daughter, he felt sad and sad. He parked the car on the side of the road. Lao Zhang could no longer help but lie on the steering wheel and cried bitterly.

Ye Mingxuan hurriedly got out of the car to comfort him, and at the same time secretly hated that he was talking too much and should not ask.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, now that medicine is so developed, it can definitely be cured. If there are financial difficulties, you say, I will do my best to help you!"

Blood cancer, which is the leukemia that everyone calls it, is divided into two types: chronic and acute. No matter which one, the chance of early cure is quite high, and the probability of early cure is as high as 80%. Of course, the cost is really not something that an ordinary family can afford.

"I'm just sad. My girl is so beautiful, lively and cute, and can dance. I always thought that Erya was the best gift God gave me, so why would she get this disease!"

"Brother Zhang, you see that medicine is so developed now, it will definitely be fine. If there are difficulties, you say!"

This kind of burden is indeed not an easy task to put on Lao Zhang. It crushed a middle-aged man. Lao Zhang got out of the car, lit a cigarette, and then squatted down beside the road, looking into the distance, his emotions became much more restrained.

"Thank you, thank you, I'm fine. I won't delay you by smoking a cigarette, right?"

Lao Zhang wiped his red eyes and said apologetically. The salary for this job is quite high, and he doesn't want to lose it just like that.

"No delay or delay."

"Actually, it's nothing. I just feel sorry for my daughter. You're right. My daughter is in the early stages and has been treated for more than a year. I can be discharged from the hospital in another month."

A dazzling brilliance burst out in Lao Zhang's eyes, that is hope and happiness.

"It's worth it, it's worth it, the boss is sensible. The 400,000 yuan spent is worth it, Erya is almost ready. Now my kid is fine with Erya."

"Yes, suffering can always make people grow up. Lao Zhang, you are not authentic. Erya is about to recover. You should be happy. You said that if Erya sees you like this, will she be sad?"

Ye Mingxuan patted Lao Zhang on the shoulder. At this time, the sky was halfway bright, and the stars were already vaguely invisible, but the moon was still hanging in the air.

Occasionally, a few insects cries came from around him, and they quickly hid, accompanying Lao Zhang to look at the rising sun in the east, listening to his nagging narrative, the effort of a cigarette passed quickly.

After setting off again, the two changed positions. Ye Mingxuan drove Lao Zhang in the co-pilot. It was not that Lao Zhang was pretentious, but that Lao Zhang had been driving for three consecutive hours. If he drove again, he would be tired driving.

The car quickly drove back from the dirt road onto the asphalt road. The car speed increased, and suddenly I felt like I was homesick. I wonder if I could catch up with Teacher Huang’s breakfast?

After a drive of more than 40 minutes, Ye Mingxuan drove to Wengcao Village in less than 40 minutes. The small mountain village at 7 o'clock was bathed in the golden sunshine. The hardworking old farmers carried tools and went out one after another. The women who stayed at home began to prepare breakfast.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Ye Mingxuan got out of the car and handed the key to Brother Zhang, encouraging him: "Come on, say it if you have any difficulties!"

"Thank you, it's over, life is pretty good now!"

People are big stars, you are just a driver who drives. You must be self-aware. Lao Zhang can understand. Ye Mingxuan said this. He is grateful, but he cannot take it seriously. It is not easy for celebrities to make money.

The mushroom house was quiet, and there were only the sleeping lanterns like specimens in the yard. There was no one, and there was no trace of Teacher Huang and He in the kitchen.

After entering the room, in the corner of the living room, the few people tidied up their greetings and placed them neatly aside. The coal in the kitchen stove was also extinguished. When I touched the stove body, it was cold. It was obviously definitely extinguished last night.

A lot of uncleaned tableware in the sink on the chopping board was thrown away here at will. Ye Mingxuan went upstairs, and the door of the room was open, but there was no one inside.

"Old Huang, sister, is there anyone?"

Ye Mingxuan stood on the balcony and shouted, "The quiet mushroom house, no one responded.

“Where did you go?”
