Chapter Thirty-Nine(1/2)
Although she was very excited, Tong'er quickly returned to her senses. Because she still wanted to find out where An Jing was, Tong'er called Xia Youyou again.
"Hey, Youyou."
"Have you already arrived at Beaver Mountain?"
"How do you know?" Tong'er hadn't said where she was yet, but she didn't expect Xia Youyou to have guessed so accurately.
Xia Youyou laughed twice: "I knew you were going to ask me the next step, so I waited." [
"Haha, yes. We are already at Beaver Mountain. Do you know how to find Anjing next?"
"I only know that we are going to gather at Weiyang Pavilion tomorrow morning. As for where the young master and Jing Jing are resting now... I really don't know yet."
"Weiyang Pavilion? Where is that place?"
"It's a pavilion on the west mountain."
"Where are you going and what are you going to do?" Tong'er is completely confused about the way Luan Er Shao behaves. What is he asking a group of people to go to the pavilion on the west mountain to enjoy the scenery?
"Oh, the young master plans to enjoy the spring tomorrow, so...you know, that place is the most comfortable place to bask in the sun and drink tea in the afternoon. The latest chapter of Princess Erysipelas: Prosperity on the Immortal Road."
Tong'er almost fell off the bed. Xia Youyou and the others collectively skipped school just to enjoy the spring with Second Young Master Luan!? This Second Young Master Luan's temperament is really not an ordinary quirk. Of course, this is just Tong'er's inner thoughts.
Dare to say it to Xia Youyou.
"But I can't look for Anjing tomorrow... Can you ask Anjing for me? But don't tell her that we are looking for her." She went up the mountain alone with Uncle Yin in the middle of the night just to find Anjing. If
What's the point of delaying tonight and risking her life by sharing a room with Uncle Yin? What an embarrassing situation... Tong'er felt embarrassed just thinking about it.
"Then let me ask for you and send you a text message later."
After hanging up the phone, Tong'er waited for a while and then Yin came back, holding their dinner in her hands. Just smelling it made Tong'er extremely hungry.
Tong'er immediately ran to the side and cleaned up the small table. Then when Uncle Yin put the tray down, Tong'er took out everything and set it up. The two of them took the bowls, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating.
After taking a bite of rice, Tong'er bit her chopsticks and looked at the opposite person who didn't seem to be in a hurry and said: "Uncle... my friend said that An Jing will show up at Weiyang Pavilion in the west tomorrow, but it's not sure where he will be tonight. But
I've asked her to inquire for me, and when the news comes, we can go out again, okay?"
Yin paused for a moment, then reached out and gave Tong'er a piece of fish-flavored eggplant with chopsticks and said lightly: "Yeah, okay."
Tong'er looked at the fish-flavored eggplant in the bowl and was surprised: How did he know...she liked fish-flavored eggplant the most?
Yin looked at Tong'er's dull look and thought she had picked the wrong dish, so she asked, "Did I remember correctly?" She liked this dish the most, so her mother had studied it carefully.
No one eats such sweet and sour taste, except her.
Tong'er shook her head with red eyes, lowered her head, and her tears fell into the white rice.
"Why are you crying?" Yin put down her chopsticks, took out a piece of paper and reached over to cover her eyes.
Tong'er sniffed, took the paper and wiped the moisture on her eyelashes carelessly, and said in a hopeless tone: "I thought... you had forgotten all of us in these years."
Yin suddenly couldn't laugh or cry: "Girl, do you think I am such a heartless person?" [
Tong'er remained silent, as if she acquiesced.
Yin sighed, patiently looked at her lowered head and said with rare sincerity: "How could I forget you? Whether it's your parents or you and Kazuyu, if it weren't for you back then, there wouldn't be me today.
everything.”
Tong'er finally slowly raised her head to look at Xiang Yin. The last time he came back, it was like he was wearing a mask, which made her feel familiar and strange at the same time. But this time he came back, he seemed to be much more friendly, and he was not the same person.
It just feels... not so strange anymore.
Tong'er looked at Yin silently, her eyes were like a warm little lamp, which made Yin couldn't help but gently raise the corners of her lips, reached out and gently rubbed her head, and slowed down her voice: "Let's eat, girl."
Tong'er smiled and clenched her chopsticks and replied softly: "Yeah..."
Tong'er was indeed hungry, so she seemed to be wolfing down her food. Although she was still a little embarrassed in front of Yin, they were once so close. He was like a biological brother. He protected her several times and even carried her on his back occasionally. Now
The slight awkwardness is just the gap of time, no longer a stranger... this is her biggest prayer.
Yin didn't eat much, she put down her chopsticks after a bowl of rice. Tong'er only burped after eating, wiped her mouth and looked up to find that Yin was actually looking at her.
Tong'er reached out and touched her mouth: "Is there something I haven't wiped clean?"
Yin shook his head: "No, I just think, girl, when you grow up and become the CEO, you can eat me."
When he said this, his expression was as serious and indifferent as ever. After listening to this, Tong'er's pretty face turned red...
"I... am fourteen years old." She was only eight years old when he left. It turns out that six years have passed. These six years, whether it is fast or slow, have made many people and things change.
Human beings are not.
"But," Yin sighed softly, looked at Tong'er and smiled lightly: "In my eyes, you will always be a child. No matter how old you are, you will always be my sister, you know?"
Tong'er also smiled sweetly, nodded vigorously and agreed with his words: "Yes! This is what you said..." She will always be his sister. In this way, she will always exist in his heart or around him.
Yin couldn't help but chuckle again, but then he became serious and corrected: "You still have to call me uncle, how can you be a generation higher than Miaomiao and the others!"
Naturally, Tong'er didn't care about this. She stuck out her tongue and filled another bowl of soup.
He shook his head secretly. Today must be the day he has laughed the most in these years. It seems that he has not been in such a happy and relaxed mood for many years. Is it because of this girl? She seems to be able to let him easily
Curling the corners of your mouth can be considered a kind of magic.
Tong'er never knew that when she happily agreed to what he said, she would regret it many years later, regretting the words "I will always be a child, no matter how old I am, I will always be a sister". Later, when she didn't want to be him
When I was a little sister, I couldn't open my mouth no matter what, couldn't say those words...
Yin put away the dishes and went down, while Tong'er knelt on the bed obediently and waited for Youyou's text message. Finally, she waited patiently until Xia Youyou's text message came. Tong'er hurriedly opened the text message: On the 276th, they were staying there.
"Is there any news?" Yin didn't know when he came to the door behind him again and leaned against it. Tong'er was somewhat used to his elusive presence. She turned around to look at him and nodded: "Well, I have it."
.”
The two people borrowed a flashlight and a scooter from the store and went out. Naturally, they also asked about No. 276, but the store seemed to be someone who had just come here to do business. He didn't even know the direction of No. 276. There was no way Tong'er and Yin could do anything.
Let's go out first. The shop owner's motorcycle was hidden in the awning at the bottom of the slope. He left some deposit, then the two of them took the keys and rode up the mountain road.
There are almost no people in Heli Mountain at night. The only sounds are the grasshoppers and frogs chirping in the grass, as well as the buzzing sound of small motorcycles. Tong'er clutched the clothes hidden around her waist tightly.
, and put her face against his back. Although it was a spring night, the season in Yunhai City always came very slowly, so it was still a little cold at night. Shivering and leaning on his back, it was always warmer.
The car suddenly stopped, Yin returned his hand and patted Tong'er's arm and said softly: "Girl, wait a minute, I'll go see what the number is here." [
Tong'er got out of the car and said, "I'd better go." After saying that, she walked towards the house with the light in front of her.
Although the night was not yet deep, the residents of Heli Mountain had already gone to bed early. Tong'er knocked on the door before someone opened the door. Tong'er shyly asked her mother-in-law who appeared in front of her: "Mother-in-law, what is the number of your home?
?Do you know where number 276 is?"
"276?" The mother-in-law's attitude was very kind, and she answered the little girl in front of her with a smile: "No. 276 is still a long way away. Our home is No. 180. Just follow this road.
It’s here.”
"Thank you, mother-in-law." Tong'er bowed to her mother-in-law very gratefully, then jumped back to the roadside and told Yin excitedly.
Yin touched Tong'er's head: "Thank you for your hard work, let's go, let's keep going!"
Tong'er quietly blushed again in the dark, climbed onto the car obediently, and grabbed the leather jacket around his waist again. As soon as the motorcycle rushed, her face was pressed against his back, and Tong'er felt that her face was
It's so hot, and my heart... is beating so fast.
Counting each house one by one, Tong'er got out of the car again around number 250. This time it was a grocery store, so it wasn't closed yet. Tong'er ran up to ask about it, and came back and told Yin: "
We actually walked through it. The aunt said that there are some households at the top and bottom of the mountain, so... we really walked past the Tiger Teacher." The old woman said it was very far away. I really couldn't believe it.
Yin turned the motorcycle around, looked at Tong'er and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, we'll just go back. Let's go?"
Tong'er smiled, climbed on the motorcycle again, and the two of them slowly climbed back towards the road.
"Uncle Yin." Tong'er looked up at the back of Yin's head and shouted suddenly.
"What?" Yin turned his head in response to Tong'er's sudden voice.
"When did you and your sister... separate?" Tong'er was really curious. She had been holding it in her stomach for a long time, and suddenly she asked bravely, looking forward to his answer.
Yin was silent for a while before turning around and saying three words: "Seven years ago."
Seven years ago? Tong'er silently calculated, wasn't that the year he came to the Zhan family? He stayed in the Zhan family for a whole year. She was only seven years old when she first arrived at the Zhan family, and he was sixteen, so he was quiet and peaceful.
He was also seven years old when they separated? But why did Anjing come to Luan's house? What happened to their siblings that caused them to separate? When listening to his mother and the others talking, at first he seemed to think that his sister was no longer alive?
Although Tong'er didn't know what happened to them, she wanted to help him find Anjing as soon as possible.
No. 276 was quickly found and turned out to be a farmhouse.
This farmhouse seems to be quite large. There is a blue brick arch in the front yard, and the house number next to it clearly says '267'. Maybe there is a trail that needs to be walked in, so when I passed by it before, I gave it a
Neglected.
Yin parked the car by the door, and Tong'er went to ring the doorbell. After a while, a middle-aged uncle came out and stood at the door and said directly: "There is no room today, there is no room." After saying that, he turned around and hurriedly said.
Rush back.
"Sir," Yin said immediately, stepped forward and looked through the special door at the uncle who was about to leave in a hurry: "We are not here to stay, we are looking for someone."
"Looking for someone?" The middle-aged man finally stopped and turned around, with a puzzled look on his face, "Who are you looking for?"
"Is there a young man named Luan and a girl named Jingjing living here today?"
The uncle nodded blankly: "Yes, they have booked this place for a week! So we won't welcome guests these days."
