Chapter 474

Bai Chenggang looked at his discerning brother who had slipped away, then moved to the window and waited to see Shen Weimin appear in the front yard. He immediately turned to look at Xu Changqing.

"Silly, you said that your Weimin brother heard that he was talking a lot of nonsense. In addition to wanting him to come forward, you also want him to not spend too much money. Why don't you come over and listen to what he has to say?"

Are you worried that he has been taken over by you now? Xu Changqing laughed and shook his head, "No, you forgot that he is still the dog-headed military advisor among the four of us."

He is Shen San, Shen San with extremely high emotional intelligence. Once someone wants to take advantage of him, unless he is willing, it is not certain who will take advantage of whom.

It's still hot at three o'clock in the afternoon, but it's time to set off. If we delay any longer, I won't have to go to the county seat to settle down before dark.

Xu Changqing once again glanced at the sacks on top of the ox cart, which contained enough sacks for a young man to eat for a month. She quickly pedaled the bike and then waved.

It’s not like Tianlulu is far away. We can come back every Sunday on Sundays. I don’t know where the second aunt came from. She keeps talking about the wheel and can’t stop.

Xu Changqing said that she could not understand this kind of motherly love. Like her third sister-in-law, Gangzi is such a good mother and so happy. There is no need to talk so much, what matters is action.

She didn't know how Brother Shen communicated with her second uncle and second aunt when he went out yesterday, but it was obvious that this guy did something that even her second aunt was grateful to.

It's just that the heat seems to be a bit fiercer. It's hot, so that's understandable. What are you waiting for? My dear uncle of the Xu family, hurry up. I forgot that I have to pass by your house later.

After leaving Baizigou, we went around to Xiangyang Brigade, and then headed to the county town via the main road. It was almost six o'clock in the afternoon when Nao Nao and the movers settled down in the county town.

It wasn't quite dark yet at this time, but it was impossible to have a direct conversation on the phone, so Xu Changqing simply didn't make a special trip to call her father.

Instead of calling someone to send a message, it would be better to wait until the report is ready tomorrow and find a time to call her father to report that she is safe. The two of them didn't talk that much.

Just like Brother Changhe, he doesn't have any nonsense in his heart. When he says it's time for dinner, he won't talk nonsense.

This time, he would eat whatever food each family prepared for them. He was not picky about food, he didn’t have to give in or ask for food, and it was easy to communicate with each other.

What makes him talkative is basically that when he is chatting, the topic of the chat will go far away, and the more he chats, the more energetic he becomes. In short, he is talking and laughing, so getting along is okay at the beginning.

After dinner, Xu Changqing didn't chat much with the three of them. Taking advantage of the time, she started to sort out the books she brought back from her hometown and put them on the bookshelf.

Then the change of clothes, pillows, thin quilts, towels, blankets, mosquito nets, baskets for small items, etc. that were brought from the outside were also laid out one by one.

It was dark after all this tidying up. Fortunately, there were electric lights in the county town, so there was no need to light oil lamps. Otherwise, we would have had to light oil lamps both inside and outside to organize things.

Habit is a terrible thing.

"It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality." After staying in an environment with electric lights for a long time, and suddenly switching to an oil lamp, I always feel that everything is dark.

Before going to bed, Xu Changqing went to the next door to take a look. There was also a light on there, but unlike her, she had already entered the room and packed her things.

The three of them were busy taking showers one by one and washing clothes outside. Now it was getting dark before they went into the house to pack away the clothes and sundries they had brought.

They all wore very little, and it was hard for Xu Changqing to go in and help them, so they had to rely on their own efforts. Fortunately, except for Shen Weimin, everyone didn't have much clothing.

Just looking at the situation, if four young men slept on a kang, it would be okay if it was cold and they would be warm if they squeezed in. But now that it is hot, Brother Shen may not be able to sleep.

When Shen Weimin saw her standing at the door, he had nothing to deal with, so he quickly came out and lifted up the straw bead curtain at the door, while asking if there was anything he needed help with.

What he said was that he had no idea whether she needed help from someone. Xu Changqing looked at Shen Weimin amusedly as he put his arm around her shoulders and pushed her into the next door.

"Do you think it would be good to open a door here? Right here, I took a look..."

"Stop." Xu Changqing interrupted quickly, "No." If you continue talking, you will want to spend money to buy this house again. How long can we stay here?

Even if you want to spend money to set up a small courtyard in the county to honor your parents so that they can live more comfortably and peacefully, this place is not good.

Not to mention whether Aunt Chen wants to sell it, what's the difference between these two houses and the two houses allocated by your parents? It's better to keep the original condition than to spend this wasted money.

Shen Weimin touched her head knowingly, then looked at the size of the outside room and the door between the inside and outside. His eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but smile.

What are you laughing at? I can’t be so discerning that I didn’t know you were thinking about that joke yesterday about making a bed outside. Xu Changqing shook his head speechlessly.

Putting these aside, Xu Changqing asked if Shen Weimin had passed by the transportation team when he went out to take the fruits and vegetables he had just picked in the afternoon.

"Yes. No letters have arrived in the past two days. It shouldn't be so soon. I also made an agreement with our father. If our father calls, he will say that he just arrived here tonight."

Xu Changqing nodded when he heard this, and first pointed to two chairs with armrests and a square table against the wall outside, indicating that he could sit down there and chat.

The door and window were open just outside the room, but there was nothing special about it. Shen Weimin glanced at his timid wife and sat down.

I guess it's not that it wasn't so fast. It's probably your sister Shen Hui who didn't want to write the letter. Otherwise, it has been some time since I borrowed the money, and the letter should have arrived by now.

"Let's not mention her. I will go back to Sister Xiaotong's place. School starts tomorrow. We definitely don't have time to go to her place. If we do, we have to wait until the autumn break."

"That's true." Xu Changqing picked up the thermos bottle leaning against the wall on the square table, poured two cups of warm water, handed him one cup, and took a cup himself before sitting down.

"Don't read tonight. Let's have a good night's rest. We can fight again tomorrow. The three of us have the same arrangement. Everyone will get up early tomorrow."

"running?"

"That's not necessary. You don't have to get up so early for a morning run. Just get up around seven o'clock. We just have breakfast. Let's go to school. It's the first day of school. Don't be in a hurry."

Xu Changqing took a sip of water and said, "No rush. By the way, I almost forgot to ask you again how many people from our commune were admitted to the county high school this year. You should ask, right?"

Shen Weimin laughed. He was really not in a hurry. He didn't ask this question until now! "Including you, there are eleven people, and only one has been admitted to a technical secondary school."

"clear."

"What do you understand, don't ask who is admitted to a technical secondary school?"

"What does it have to do with me?"
