Chapter 327 She Must Be Involuntary

Chapter 327 She must be involuntarily

Qiao Mu pressed her lips together hard and said after a long time: "Then she ran away quietly by herself, right?"

Qiao Yan opened his mouth silently and sighed helplessly, "Qiao Mu, you have to know that life on the farm is not easy. Your mother must not have been able to endure it any longer, so she left."

Qiao Mu's jaw tightened, "I don't blame her for leaving, but why did you abandon us father and son?"

"Not even a word left!"

Qiao Yan frowned, "It's not what you think, she must be involuntarily."

Qiao Mu shook his head. He could accept that his mother was gone, but he couldn't accept it anyway. His mother abandoned them and ran away.

It's been seven or eight years. Even if she couldn't help herself at the time, is it so difficult to bring them a message and let them know where she is after all these years?

At this time, Zhao Tingting's voice came from the kitchen house, "Qiao Mu, I'm done."

Qiao Mu did not continue the topic, "Dad, let's go to Zaowu to eat noodles."

There are two large bowls of noodles on the table in the kitchen, with tempting poached eggs lying on them.

Qiao Yan and the young man each took a bowl and ate it in large gulps.

An arbor is boiling water nearby.

After Qiao Yan had eaten the noodles, Qiao Mu fetched him water to wash his face and feet.

The wrinkles on Qiao Yan's face were relaxed, and he soaked his feet in the hot water, enjoying his son's filial piety.

There were only father and son in the kitchen room. Qiao Yan suddenly blinked at his son and asked, "Is that Su Zhiqing your date?"

Qiao Mu will turn nineteen in a few days, which is also the right age for dating.

Qiao Mu's face turned red slightly, and he nodded "Yeah".

Qiao Yan laughed and said, "You have good taste. That girl is pretty, generous and enthusiastic. She's pretty good."

Qiao Mu wants to say that Susie has many more advantages. Her greatest advantage is that she is strong and brave.

He even thought that if Susie was in the same situation as his mother, she would definitely not abandon her husband and son and run away cowardly, but she would face it bravely.

Perhaps it was Susie's courage to face everything that particularly fascinated him.

Qiao Yan washed his feet and said to Qiao Mu with a smile: "Tonight we, father and son, will sleep in the same bed."

He pointed to the young man in the yard outside and said, "Xiao Lin, see if you can find a place for him to stay for one night."

Qiao Mu nodded, "Then I'll take him to Xu's house. They have a vacant room."

Qiao Yan said: "Sure, he has worked hard after riding in the car for the past few days. Let him rest early."

Qiao Yan went out and talked to Xiao Lin. Xiao Lin shook his head: "Chief, I live elsewhere and it is not convenient to protect your safety."

Qiao Yan slapped him funny, "What are you protecting? These are all simple villagers!"

"Go ahead, I want to sleep with my son tonight, and we can't fit in here."

Xiao Lin hesitated, Qiao Yan waved his hand, "Go ahead."

Qiao Mu took him to Xu's house.

When we arrived at Xu's house and entered the yard, there were many people watching TV. Susie was squatting outside the stove brushing her teeth and didn't notice anyone coming in at all.

Qiao Mu walked to the old lady and told her, and the old lady readily agreed.

Get up and go to Xu Zhiqiang's room to make the bed.

Everything in Xu Zhiqiang's room was ready. He took out the sheets and put them on the mattress, and then took out the clean new quilt and clean pillows from the cupboard. Everything was ready.

Qiao Mu thanked the old lady, turned to the kitchen house, and looked inside.

Susie had just finished washing her face and was about to splash water when she raised her head and met Qiao Mu's eyes.

There were so many people outside that Qiao Mu didn't dare to come in. He looked at Su Qian with a smile before leaving.

It was happiness for him to see Susie one more time.

Back home, Qiao Yan was still taking a walk in the yard. The weather in November was not too cold. Qiao Mu moved two chairs out, and the father and son sat in the yard talking.

Qiao Yan said: "Tomorrow, you pack your luggage, go to the brigade headquarters to get a certificate, and follow me back to the capital."

Qiao Mu was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "I won't go back."

Qiao Yan turned to look at him and said strangely: "Why don't you go back? There was no way to go to the countryside to jump in the queue before. You are so smart, you can't waste your talent in this remote place."

"I heard that you have completed all your high school courses by yourself and will go to college next year."

Qiao Mu pursed his lips and shook his head.

Qiao Yan frowned and looked at Qiao Mu for a while, "Are you reluctant to leave your partner?" Otherwise, he really couldn't think of any other reason.

Qiao Mu lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Qiao Yan knew that he had guessed correctly, "Since your partner is also an educated youth, let's go to the capital together. If she wants to go to university, I will find a way."

Qiao Mu shook his head, "She will not return to the capital."

Qiao Yan asked in surprise: "Why?"

It is really difficult for people who are used to living in the city to tolerate all the inconveniences of country life.

Especially for a young girl who is unwilling to return to the capital and wants to stay in the countryside, this is simply impossible.

Qiao Mu shook his head, "I don't know why, but she has her own plans for life."

"If she really wanted to return to Beijing, she could have done so long ago."

Qiao Yan fell silent.

He got married late, in his thirties. He was an only son, and his wife was nowhere to be found. After being separated from his son for so many years, he really hoped that his son would return to Beijing with him.

Qiao Yan didn't say anything else. Since the crux was not with his son, it was useless to say anything.

"It's getting late, let's go to bed."

The father and son went back to the house to sleep.

The next morning, Qiao Yan got up early.

Watching my son carrying water and skillfully chopping firewood made me feel uncomfortable.

My son is very smart. This has been evident since he was very young. He has an almost photographic memory for reading and has very strong understanding and logical thinking skills.

In his opinion, it was a waste of Qiao Mu's talent to spend on such manual labor.

National construction requires talents, high-end talents, and Qiaomu has great hope to become the high-end talents the country needs.

After breakfast, Qiao Mu said, "I'll go to work, and you can walk around by yourself. I'll be back at noon."

Qiao Yan nodded, just in time, he could take a look in the countryside and do some research.

Not long after Qiao Mu started work, Xiao Lin came over from Xu's house and asked: "Chief, I'm afraid you have to buy your train tickets in advance, otherwise you won't be able to buy a sleeper berth. Otherwise, I will go to the county to buy tickets later."

Qiao Yan waved his hand, "Don't rush yet."

He had to open up Qiao Mu's crux and let Qiao Mu go with him.

"By the way, go to the village and find out where the Su Zhiqing who brought us here yesterday lives?"

Xiao Lin laughed and said, "No need to ask, I stayed at their house last night."

Qiao Yan waved his hand and said, "Let's go over and have a look."

Xiao Lin took Qiao Yan to Xu's house. There was not much work in the fields now. Su Qian didn't work today. She and the old lady were drying the quilt while the sun was good.

Seeing Qiao Yan and Xiao Lin coming in from the door, Susie quickly greeted, "Uncle Qiao, you are here."
