Qiu Yingjie returned to his seat and felt strange when he saw Zhou Chen staring out the window blankly.
"Brother Zhou, what's wrong with you? Why are you not thinking properly?"
Zhou Chen came back to his senses and replied casually: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about something."
Qiu Yingjie smiled and said: "You must be homesick. You went to the capital before me and haven't been home for more than a year. You must be timid about being close to home."
"maybe."
Zhou Chen smiled, feeling a little timid about being close to home, but he was still thinking more about Luo Yuzhu just now. She really looked so much like his former wife.
Thinking that Luo Yuzhu was the heroine in the TV series and would have an inseparable love-hate relationship with Chen Jianghe in the future, he unconsciously felt very uncomfortable.
If Luo Yuzhu didn't look like this, he definitely wouldn't care, but now, he can only feel sorry for his little brother who he hasn't met yet, and must prevent such a thing from happening.
Fortunately, Luo Yuzhu has not met Chen Jianghe yet, so there is still room for maneuver. After returning to Yiwu, he will take action and find Luo Yuzhu first.
Because he had just watched this TV series not long ago, he remembered that the bridge where Luo Yuzhu lived was either within Yiwu or around Yiwu. It shouldn't be difficult to find it carefully.
Zhou Chen, who was thoughtful, could no longer concentrate on chatting with Qiu Yingjie. Qiu Yingjie saw that Zhou Chen had lost interest, so he stopped chatting with Zhou Chen.
Two hours later, the train arrived at the station, and Zhou Chen and Qiu Yingjie got off the train with salutes.
"Brother Zhou, how do you leave?"
At the door of the train station, Qiu Yingjie looked at Zhou Chen's suitcase and asked.
Zhou Chen said: "I'll find a tractor to take me back later, where are you?"
Qiu Yingjie said: "I'm not far away. I'll walk back later."
"Then let's separate here, Yingjie. I live in Chenjiacun. If you are free, you can come and find me."
"Okay, Brother Zhou, I will definitely look for you. When we return to the capital, we will ride in the car together."
"Okay, no problem, bye."
"goodbye."
…………
The train station was quite far from Chenjiacun, and Zhou Chen didn't want to drag his suitcase that far. He searched around and finally found a tractor that was willing to take him to Chenjiacun. It cost him three yuan.
The other party agreed to make a trip.
The tractor was really bumpy, especially on the roads in the countryside with many potholes. Zhou Chen felt like his gallbladder was going to vomit out, and he vowed never to ride on a tractor again. It was so terrible.
When Zhou Chen returned to Chenjiacun, he was quickly recognized and caused a sensation.
"College students are back, college students are back."
…………
Like a roll call at the Donghua Gate, Zhou Chen was very embarrassed and hurriedly quickened his pace. Under the "crazy" gazes of the young wives and young widows, even he felt very uneasy.
Soon he arrived at his uncle Chen Jinshui's house. The door was open, so he walked in directly and saw the girl feeding the chickens.
Although Zhou Chen hadn't seen Qiaogu for a year and a half, he still recognized her at a glance. This girl was his cousin Qiaogu.
Qiaogu, who was feeding the chickens, turned her head when she heard the sound. When she saw Zhou Chen, her hands loosened and the chicken food immediately spread all over the floor.
"elder brother?"
She suspected that she was dazzled, so she rubbed her eyes, and when she saw that Zhou Chen was still there, she called out tentatively.
When she saw Zhou Chen looking at her with a smile, she couldn't bear it anymore and rushed over excitedly, hugging Zhou Chen.
"Brother, brother, you are finally back. I miss you so much."
Zhou Chen also hugged Qiaogu hard, patted her back, and said happily: "I'm back, and our Qiaogu has grown into a big girl."
Qiaogu was only happy at the moment, and she couldn't care less about Zhou Chen's teasing, and she was so excited that she was incoherent.
"Brother, why are you back? Why didn't you tell us when you came back? My parents are not at home. They are in the fields. If they know you are back, they will be very happy. You are waiting for me here. I am now
Just go to the fields and call them back."
Qiaogu let go of Zhou Chen and was about to run out in a hurry, but Zhou Chen held her back.
"No, let uncle and the others do their work. There is no need to call them. Let's go inside first."
Only then did Qiaogu realize that they were still standing at the door. She quickly wiped her hands and helped Zhou Chen drag the suitcase.
"Brother, let's go into the house and I'll pour you some water."
Qiaogu was busy working back and forth, pouring water and getting food, her face flushed with excitement.
"Okay, Qiaogu, you don't have to work anymore. Come, sit down and have a good chat with me."
After Qiao Gu heard this, she sat down next to Zhou Chen.
"Brother, did you come back by train? You must have been very tired along the way, right?"
"It's not bad. I made a friend on the road. He and I slept together. After a while, I wasn't too tired."
"It's you, I haven't seen you for more than a year. You are becoming more and more beautiful as you grow older. You are now a big girl."
Qiao Gu looked shy and said, "No way, brother."
"Why not? Our Qiaogu is a flower in Chenjia Village." Zhou Chen said with a smile.
"It's annoying, brother, I'm just a little girl from the country. I can't compare to those sisters in the capital, right?"
Qiaogu has grown up and has never even been out of Yiwu. She spends most of her time in Chenjia Village. She has little knowledge, but she also yearns for life outside.
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Who said that, Qiaogu, I believe you, brother, if you go to the city, dress up well and I guarantee you will be no worse than anyone else."
"Brother, you can coax me."
Although Qiaogu said this, the smile on her face never stopped. Her brother was a famous college student and very knowledgeable, so what he said must be very reasonable.
"No, come on. I'm back this time, but I've brought you a lot of good things."
Zhou Chen opened the suitcase and took out a plastic bag with many things inside. He picked it up and handed it to Qiao Gu.
Qiaogu looked surprised: "Is this for me?"
"Yes, I brought it back from the capital specifically for you to take a look at."
Qiaogu opened the plastic bag curiously and expectantly. The first thing she saw was a leather bag, then clothes, pants, hats, etc.
"Clothes and other items are all popular in the capital. And this, this is cosmetics, for wiping your face and hands, it can protect your skin. This bag is for you to put things in. You can take it with you when you go out, and these..."
Looking at the pile of things on the table, Qiaogu was dumbfounded. When had she ever seen such good things? Those fashionable clothes and pants, leather bags, and even socks looked so good.
"Brother, where did you get these things? They must be worth a lot of money."
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "I bought this specially for you. It's worth any amount of money. You don't have to worry about money. I'm also a college student after all. Although I haven't graduated yet, it doesn't mean I can't make money."
"Brother, aren't you in college? Can you still make money in college?" Qiao Gu looked confused.
"How strange. Who stipulates that you can't make money when you go to college? This is the capital city, which is advanced and developed, and there are many ways to make money."
"That's great, brother. I'm not afraid to tell you. When I saw you just now, I was really shocked. You are so beautiful."
Qiaogu didn't lie. When she saw Zhou Chen just now, although she recognized him, she was still shocked.
Zhou Chen used to be like them, wearing coarse linen clothes, but now Zhou Chen is dressed in fashionable clothes, has a very good-looking hair style, and his skin is much whiter, like a young master in the city.
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Good-looking is used to describe girls, and handsome is used to describe boys."
"Oh, handsome, my brother is the most handsome, but brother, are these things really for me?"
"Of course it's for you. These are things for girls. If they aren't given to you, why don't they be given to me to use and wear?"
"Hehe, I just find it incredible. I have never seen so many good things. They all become mine at once. It feels a bit unreal."
Zhou Chen flicked her forehead gently or hard: "Does it feel real now?"
"Hehe." Qiao Gu had a silly smile on her face.
Not long after, Chen Jinshui and his wife returned home after hearing the news.
They were all very happy to see Zhou Chen, especially Chen Jinshui. Seeing Zhou Chen whose appearance and temperament had changed drastically, their eyes turned red with joy and they hugged Zhou Chen vigorously.
"Okay, okay, okay..."
That night, Zhou Chen and Chen Jinshui drank and chatted all night.
