At midnight, the entire city of Han is also sleeping, quiet and peaceful. Only service stations like the station are still brightly lit, and the flow of people is far less than that during the day, and the number of passengers coming and going is also much scattered...
The last train from the west of Beijing to Zheng City, H Nan Province, the day before, clanged away. The passengers who got off the train also left the station one after another and walked out of the station building along the exit passage. The lights in the square outside the station were as bright as day, and they were parked.
Lots of taxis, buses, buses.
The stars in the sky are sparsely scattered, indicating that it will be a sunny day after dawn. The light of the street lamps around the square and the street lamps in the distance are like long dragons, shining together with the stars.
Passengers walked out of the station in twos and threes, taking taxis or getting on buses.
When she got to the square, Yun looked around, bought a bottle of water at the 24-hour store outside the station, and bought chicken feet with pickled peppers and roast duck legs from another store. She also went to the bathroom and turned back to the square in front of the station.
After walking around for a while, I boarded a taxi.
The taxi driver was a relatively young middle-aged man with a Chinese character face. When the guests got on the bus, he turned his head and asked: "Hello, welcome to take taxi number. Are you looking for accommodation or which scenic spot are you going to?"
"Good morning, how much is the chartered car to go to Changshou Village?"
"There are many buses from Hanshi to Changshou Village. There are also buses from the train station. The fare is 12 yuan. It's cost-effective to wait until dawn to take the bus. If you charter a bus, it's 300 yuan."
"Three hundred, it's so expensive, can it be cheaper?" Yun clicked her tongue. Although she had agreed early on that the travel expenses would be reimbursed by the He family, she had to count the money out of her own hands first, which made her feel bad.
"Girl, I didn't raise a price. I usually rent a bus at night for five hundred at least. If I were an unscrupulous driver who ripped off customers, I wouldn't tell you that you can take the bus. I also have children and I don't do anything unconscionable.
"
"Then don't bargain. Three hundred, it's settled."
"It's settled, I'll charge you more money, and you can complain or not pay it back." The driver smiled cheerfully, unlocked the car, started the car, and got out.
"Follow the car in front and go wherever it goes." As soon as the taxi carrying the little girl started to drive, a middle-aged man sitting in another taxi told the driver the purpose.
"No problem." The driver happily drove and asked him to follow him. This is no problem. Even if he is going to a remote place and there are companions on the road, he will not be afraid of being robbed by customers.
"Follow that taxi." At the same time, a young man got off the bus and quickly got into a taxi, asking him to follow the taxi that was reversing out.
The driver of the taxi carrying the little classmate backed the car out of the parking space, turned off the meter, and drove away from the train station. He happily drove around the city for half a circle, but then he went straight to his destination.
It took less than an hour and a half to get from Han City to Changshou Village Scenic Area. The taxi swayed slowly, and it took two hours to get there. It was just after five o'clock, and it was still dark, and the sky and the earth were pitch black.
, only the lights at the scenic area management fee office in the distance are bright.
There is a fee for Changshou Village Park. If you don't go to the park scenic area, you can only spend money at the villagers' homes in Changshou Village without tickets.
The taxi taking Yun first stopped at the square outside the park area, and then returned along the way it came. It missed a taxi a few hundred meters away from the park management area, and then traveled another 200 meters.
Coming to the meter, missed with the second car.
The taxi that followed the first taxi stopped at the square of the park management office, dropped off the guests, and then turned around. However, another taxi arrived within a short while, dropped off the guests, and then returned to the city.
When they were driving back one after another, they turned a corner and didn't see the lights of a car in front of them. In other words, they didn't see the shadow of the taxi they were following. They were very puzzled, but they didn't think much about it, because
When they came by chartered car, the guests paid the amount they quoted without haggling. They made a fortune and returned to the city happily.
The taxi that sent Yun went to the park toll office for a round trip. On the way back, it turned a corner and ran wildly. It turned into a branch road where there was a fork in the road and took people directly to the intersection outside the real Changshou Village.
.
"Master, thank you. If I still take this route on my return trip, I'll call you and ask you to pick me up." Yun took the driver's business card, got off the car, and paid.
"Okay." The driver took the money and said, "Hey, girl, it's too much. We were promised three hundred, but you gave us two hundred more."
"The other two hundred is gas money, master. I wish you a safe journey." Master Yun Chong waved his little hand, turned on the flashlight, and ran into the darkness.
Just as the taxi driver was about to get out of the car and return the money to the customer, the little girl ran away in a hurry. He had no choice but to accept the money, close the door, and watch the little girl run away before he drove back.
Yun walked for a while, waited for the driver to go away, turned around, ran in another direction, found a remote and secret place, turned off the flashlight, and crawled back to her own space.
After returning to my own one-third of an acre of land, I could relax my tense nerves. I threw down my backpack, lay down on the grass and spread out in a big shape, staring at the dark place with my eyes open.
Someone is following her!
Even if you don't want to admit it, you have to face reality.
She was afraid that Yan would find someone to protect her secretly and cause trouble, so she made a plan on her own and quietly went out at night, from school to the station, and there was nothing strange about her.
When she got on the bus and found her seat, she was very calm for the first time. When she took her seat, except for her seatmate and the few passengers next to her who paid attention to her at the beginning, no one else responded. This result is also normal. After all, passengers interact with each other.
We don't know each other, we are all strangers, and no one will pay attention to anyone all the time, unless someone is related to them or that person is very special and attracts attention.
A few dozen minutes after sitting down, and nearly an hour later, I felt like I was being stared at.
Her perception is keen. Because there are many people in the car, she cannot accurately find who the person of particular concern is, but can only roughly determine where it is.
The young man who sat next to her later was also the one who was following her. The reason why she was 100% sure was because of her hearing. She heard the conversation between the young man and the middle-aged woman sitting in the same row. The young man actually
He also got on the bus first and then paid for the ticket. He stopped the middle-aged woman next to her when she was going to the toilet. He paid for the sleeper ticket for the middle-aged woman in exchange for the middle-aged woman's seat.
Even if there were no young people, she would get off the train in Han City. Her original intention of buying the ticket to the destination was to deceive Handsome Yan and others, fearing that they would find out her whereabouts from the station and come over to work as a bodyguard. Her original goal was Han, Northern Province
city.
She confirmed that the young man's target was her, so she paid more attention when she got off the car. She walked to the place between the two carriages a few minutes in advance, and then quietly observed the young man. As expected, the man also got off the car and took advantage of the young man.
When going to another car door, she immediately walked forward, passed through three carriages, and got off at another place. Because it was several carriages away, the distance was long, and it was night, so it was impossible for the young man to see her. She took advantage of that
Get off the bus at a certain time, run to a dimly lit area, and exit the station with a few passengers who got off the bus.
However, after getting rid of the young man, the feeling of being stared at still persisted, so I deliberately wandered around the station square for a few times before heading straight to my goal. I asked the driver to make more turns on the way to see if it was still possible.
Being followed, I once again found a car following closely behind me, so I simply stopped avoiding and allowed them to follow to Changshou Village.
Why follow her?
She couldn't figure it out, no matter how hard she tried, Yun couldn't figure it out. Those people couldn't all be handsome Yan or the He family sent to protect her. She was self-aware, and her weight was not heavy enough to overwhelm handsome Yan.
So tense.
I stared at the darkness with my eyes open for a long time, rolling around, rolling over, unable to figure out why I was being followed, rolling over, still unable to figure out why an unknown person was following me, rolling around, rolling over, the more I thought about it, the more confused I became, someone wanted to cripple me first
Later, there were spies trying to deal with her, and now she was being followed for no apparent reason. By the way, who did she offend?
After rolling for several times, my brain was turned into mush, so I just stood up like a carp, used a flashlight and ran to pick vegetables and collect medicinal materials.
It starts to dawn around 5:30 to 5:30 in autumn. After Yun has picked vegetables and fruits, there is a faint rhythm in the space. She carries her bag and leaves the space quickly.
The sky outside is slightly bright, and the light is very weak, almost the same as the light in space.
In order not to be seen, Yun used all her strength and ran towards the mountains in the distance. She ran faster and faster, and the sky became brighter and brighter. When she could see the grass and trees clearly, she ran to the foot of a mountain peak, like
He jumped into the woods like a rabbit, climbed over the mountains and ridges under the cover of the woods, and headed towards the target - the main peak of Motian Ridge.
The Changshou Village Scenic Area in Handan City is located at the foot of the Motianling Mountains in the Taihang Mountains. The Motianling Mountains are composed of several peaks, with many mountains and deep canyons. The mountainous area is rich in resources, and there are sub-primitive forests where hundreds of wild medicinal materials grow.
The little classmate searched for information and found that several medicinal materials she was looking for grew in Motianling, and several medicinal materials needed to be found in other places.
After running into the mountains, Yun returned to the mountains like a tiger, with no worries at all. With her foot strength and speed, no one would want to follow her. For safety reasons, she would still run around in the mountains, even if someone found her traces.
If you follow him, you will be confused and unable to find the direction.
I made an anti-tracking array, ran through a valley, crossed a river, disappeared into the forest of another mountain, and returned to space again.
After running for such a long time, Yun was exhausted and dripping with sweat. She sat down to rest for a while, waited for the sweat to subside, washed her hands, ate fruits and melons, and was satisfied with her meal. She rolled up her sleeves and mixed herbal medicine to plant peanuts in the field.
She has grown beans, but never beans or peanuts. This time she bought some peanuts in preparation for going to the mountains. She quickly planted some while taking advantage of the convenient space in the mountains. After planting peanuts in a small area, she also sown a large area.
Cabbage, edamame.
After finishing the work, he changed into gray long-sleeved clothes that matched the mountains and trees, took a hoe to make some space, and officially started his plan to dig medicine.
As for why she was being followed, that important and troubling question was put aside for now. She would wait until she collected the medicinal materials for Grandma Yanren to prepare medicine and then think about it slowly when she had time.
When the season in Beijing changes from autumn to winter, as time goes by, it gets dark earlier and earlier, and the light gets darker and darker. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, it doesn't usually get bright until after 5:02.
Yan Xing got up at 4:05 to wash up, and Liu Xiangyang also got up, brushing his teeth and washing his face.
"Xiangyang, did you dream about your sweetheart last night or about picking up gold? Are you so happy?" Someone Liu had a nice smile, but Yan Xing felt it was too dazzling, so he had to ask if he should pour cold water on it, so that someone Liu wouldn't get it.
Forgot about everything.
"No, I was thinking that if I work as a bodyguard for Little Princess Chao, I will have a lot of credit. The little beauty will treat me to dinner again when she comes back. In that case, plus the last meal, there will be at least two big meals.
The meal is delicious, and I am in a good mood just thinking about it." He helped the little beauty find the person behind the harm to her, and also helped her protect her brother Chao. It was a great achievement. If he works hard to gain favor, he should be able to win over
Little beauty, can you help me?
Then, Young Master Liu was confused again. He and Yan had tricked the little beauty. If he asked her for help, he didn't know whether she would agree to his request.
"By the way, is there any latest news about the little beauty?" After hesitating for a second, he threw away his worries. Even if the little beauty was still angry and refused to help, he would continue to shamelessly move forward until she was willing to help.
until.
"No, the little loli got off the bus in Hanshi and ditched the person."
"Hey, has your person been discovered?"
"It's possible. Anyway, the little girl is very clever and very courageous. I am not worried about the safety of the little Loli at all. Instead, I am more worried about the personal safety of the guys who are following her. Whoever successfully tracks her may be discovered.
You really have to dedicate your life to the trees as fertilizer."
"You...you said the little beauty can really kill people?" Mr. Liu was shocked. Don't tell him that the little beauty dares to kill people. He is incompetent.
"The little loli is a medical student and is very soft-hearted. Naturally, she will not kill people. Sprinkling a few handfuls of medicine to make people faint or tapping people's acupuncture points to escape themselves are normal self-protection methods. If the unlucky guy who gets caught is lucky,
No, a wild beast happened to pass by and unfortunately became prey, so you can’t blame the little loli, right?"
Looking at the sky and the ground, Liu Xiangyang touched his heart weakly: "Guwu disciples are scary, and Guwu disciples who understand Chinese medicine are even scarier. For the sake of personal safety, don't offend the little beauty if you offend anyone."
Yan Xing didn't care about Mr. Liu's frightened appearance. He shaved and cleaned his face, packed himself up, found a backpack from the closet, and put in it the medicine that the little Loli had prepared for his grandma.
Liu Shao hurriedly finished washing up, put on his backpack containing books and belongings, and went downstairs with Yan. He took Yan out of school on a motorcycle and took a taxi outside, and then returned to Qingdao University.
Because it was just after five o'clock, and the office workers and schoolchildren had not left yet, the traffic was the easiest, taxis were flowing smoothly, and it took half an hour to reach the Military Medical General Hospital.
The taxi stopped in front of the inpatient department building. Mr. Yan got out of the car, carried his bag and went straight to the elevator to go upstairs. He went to the VIP inpatient department floor, being gentle so as not to disturb other inpatient family members. He went to the place where his great-grandma lived and knocked gently.
Knock on the door, then push the door open and come in.
The He family went back yesterday morning and received a call after noon. Some people in important jobs did not take leave. In the evening, several people from the He family who were retired or not civil servants went to the hospital to accompany them. They are:
The eldest son of He ancestor, He Zigong's third son He Qiwei, his second son He Zirong, and his third son He Qicheng's second son He Mingxin, are the grandsons of He Zirong; the fifth son of the He family, He Zihua's second son He Qijie and his wife Jiang Yu, are He Xiaoba
He Mingtao's parents.
He Qican, the fourth son of He Zirui, and He Mingjing, the daughter of the third son He Qiyu.
The daughters-in-law of the He family are all old ladies. Not being able to accompany them to the hospital only made the children worried. They did not go to the hospital and stayed at home.
The brothers are here. He Qi went back to rest last night so that he could go to work the next day. He rushed to the hospital the night before yesterday and took temporary leave yesterday. Now that his ancestor has hope of recovery, He Zirui asked him to go back. He Qi joined the army and is now working in the army's logistics department.
Ministry work, senior colonel rank.
Although only part of the He family came to the scene, the family team was already extremely large.
Since there are only sisters-in-law Luo Xiulan, Jiang Yu, He Panpan and He Mingjing among the ladies, the four of them are responsible for changing the ancestor's diapers and wiping his body, while the men are responsible for other things.
In the evening, the men took turns to keep vigil. He Zirong and He Zirui were older and slept on the sofa; Luo Xiulan and Jiang Yu were grandsons, and He Panpan was pregnant with the baby. The three ladies also sat on the sofa and dozed off crookedly; the others had sofas to sit on, but there was no room.
Sit on the ground and spread a blanket on the floor.
He Mingsheng and He Mingjun got up at 5 o'clock to make medicine. After that, He Mingtao, He Mingxin and He Mingjing also got up to help. He Mingjing checked the ancestor's body, then sat down and closed his eyes to rest.
The younger members of the He family also removed the safety bolt on the door early, but Young Master Yan easily pushed the door open and entered.
When they heard the knock on the door, the confused He Zirui and others also woke up. They sat up, climbed up, rubbed their waists, faces, and stretched. They all had sleepy eyes open and muttered something.
Who is it?” “Ah, it’s dawn.”
Yan Xing stepped through the door and took a look. Only two energy-saving lamps were turned on in the rest area. Under the light and soft light, there were several people leaning on the sofa. There were blankets in the open space, and several middle-aged and young people were sitting in a row like a row of rice dumplings.
.
Seeing his close relatives, his pair of dragon eyes full of awe-inspiring righteousness shone softly, and his handsome face showed a warm smile that was warmer than the spring breeze in March: "Second uncle, third uncle, good morning, seventh aunt, eighth uncle, eleven."
Good morning to uncle eleven, aunt thirteen, and good morning to brother two, three brothers, five sisters, eight brothers, twelve brothers, and sixteen brothers."
The long string of greetings, and the ranking of the siblings without a pause in between, can make people faint.
Each of the He brothers has two to four children. The eldest son, He Zigong, has the eldest son He Qi, ranking first among the third generation siblings; the second son, He Qiwu, ranks fourth; the third son, He Qiwei, ranks eighth; and the fourth daughter, He Qixing, ranks eighth.
tenth;
The second son of the He family, He Zirong, has the eldest son Zhu Qili, ranked fifth; the second daughter He Qiyi, ranked sixth; the third son He Qicheng, ranked 12th;
The third son of the He family, He Zirui, has the eldest son He Qishu, ranked second; the second daughter He Qishi, ranked third, they are twins; the third son He Qiyu, ranked ninth; the fourth son He Qishan, ranked thirteen;
The fifth son of the He family, He Zihua, has the eldest son He Qiying, ranked seventh; and the second son He Qijie, ranked eleventh.
Among the He Jiaqi generation, He Qi's eldest son, He Minghong, ranks first among his siblings; his second son, He Mingda, ranks sixth;
He Qiwu has a son He Mingsheng, ranked second; He Qiwei has a son He Mingmao, ranked seventh; He Qili has a son He Mingjun, ranked third; and his second son He Mingzhi, ranked fifteen.
He Qishu's eldest son, He Mingxi, and his second daughter, He Panpan, are also twins, ranking fourth and fifth respectively in the overall ranking.
He Qicheng's eldest daughter, He Mingshuang, ranked fourteenth; his second son, He Mingxin, ranked sixteenth;
He Qiyu's eldest daughter He Mingjing, ranked 12th; He Mingcan's eldest son He Mingtang, ranked 13th;
He Qiying's eldest son He Mingliang, ranked eleventh; He Qijie's eldest son He Mingtao, second son He Minglue, and third daughter He Mingqing, all three of them are triplets, ranked eighth, ninth, and tenth respectively.
The second generation of the He family has four brothers, and the third generation has a total of twelve children. In the fourth generation, due to the family planning policy, civil servants working in state-owned enterprises can only have one child, and only a few can have a second child.
, even if this is the case, it has also grown into a large team of sixteen people, which is not unspectacular. By analogy, the He family is truly flourishing, and its descendants are prosperous. In the future, thousands of descendants will not be a dream.
Luo Xiulan is the wife of He Qiying, the eldest son of the He family's five-time He Zihua, and Jiang Yu is the wife of He Qijie. The elders and juniors all address his wife according to the ranking of men in the He family.
The He family has many descendants, and due to their blood relationship, they look very similar. Therefore, when brothers and sisters of a certain generation stand together, it is difficult for outsiders to tell who is who.
"Xiao Long Bao."
"Brother Long Bao."
Everyone in the He family saw the elegant and bright young man entering the ward, and were dazzled by his charming smile. They all smiled brightly. The elders and older brothers and sisters called him by his nickname, and those younger than him called him by his nickname.
My old cousin affectionately calls him Brother Longbao.
"Brother Long Bao, you're back so early." He Mingxin jumped up and rushed towards his cousin like flying.
He is the youngest among the fourth generation, at eighteen years old. He is the most carefree and has a wild temper. Because he is the youngest, his brothers and sisters dote on him, and he is also the most naughty and willful.
He Mingxin spread his legs, roared and rushed to his cousin's side. He jumped on top of his cousin like an octopus, then hugged the person's neck, hanging on his side like a sloth on his cousin's chest.
forward.
He Zirong was just sitting down, and when he saw his little grandson's naughty look, the corners of his eyes twitched: "Xiao Shiliu, let go now. What does it look like at such a big age, but he still doesn't sit or stand."
He Er is also an old man who is over seventy years old. He has silver threads on his head and a tigerish face, which makes him quite evil. But who is He Mingxin? He is the youngest devil in the He family. He is not afraid of his grandfather's fierce appearance. He just turns his head and takes a look.
, ignoring grandpa’s black face, he continued to play with his cousin as a tree.
"Second brother, don't get angry so early in the morning. It's not a fight. The children can do whatever they like. Just pretend you didn't see them." He Zirui sat upright and reached out to pat his brother's shoulder, calming him down like a lion.
temper.
"If you indulge him like this, he doesn't know how high the sky is, and he might cause trouble one day."
"Second uncle, sixteen is just a bit more lively. He can distinguish between right and wrong and distinguish between good and evil. He has never gotten into any trouble that he shouldn't have gotten into. Don't worry." Yan Xing stretched out his big hand and put his arms around his little cousin's arms.
With a strong twist on his waist, he easily lifted the little cousin off his neck, hugged his legs like an eagle pinching a chicken, made him face up, and lifted him upside down in his hands.
Shake and shake.
"Brother Long Bao, put me down quickly, ah ah ah, I don't want to play anymore, the house is spinning, oh, I'm dizzy, ah ah ah... ah!"
Seeing my little brother screaming because of his cousin, He Mingsheng and the other brothers and sisters just looked around and laughing. When Shiliu met Xiao Longbao, he was always dealt with immediately.
He Zirong, He Zirui, He Qili and others also looked at Xiaoliu with laughter. None of them went to the rescue, they all just watched the show. Xiaoliu was lifted upside down by Xiaolongbao, but he couldn't get up when he thought about it, and he bared his teeth and claws.
He was waving his arms around, which was really funny.
"Sixteen, tell me brother, how are you doing with your studies? Did you skip classes or take a leave of absence?"
"Brother Long Bao, I didn't skip class. I came here after class. I will go back to school later. Brother, please put me down quickly. Your brother and I are almost breaking my waist."
"A child who doesn't skip class is a good child." Yan Xing finally reached out generously to pick him up, let his little cousin stand on his feet, and reached out to rub his head: "Be good, brush your teeth, wash your face, go have breakfast and go back to school.
During the National Day holiday, go home and be filial to your ancestors. I heard that Fifteen will participate in the Autumn University Games this year, so you can't afford to lose miserably."
"I understand, I understand." He Mingxin was shaken from side to side several times. He was still a little dizzy after he stood firm. He muttered in a low voice: "Brother Fifteen is the least cute. He is obviously a student with motor nerves.
It’s still so great, so it’s a perfect blow to me.”
Yan Xing smiled leisurely. His fifteenth cousin Mingzhi was a sophomore in college. He was a track and field athlete in the school. He beat Sixteenth in sports, which made Xiaoliu depressed to death. But he would not tell his sixteenth cousin that he knew there was a
The child's athletic talent is more than fifteen times better than his family's.
After Xiao Shiliu had finished acting coquettishly, He Mingsheng asked about the situation, the little doctor who had no special instructions, when the little doctor would go out to collect medicine, why Xiao Longbao didn't send her to the car, etc.
Yan Xing answered one by one, telling everyone that the little Loli had been born last night. He took out the medicine he brought back and told them which ones to boil first and which ones to boil later. There were also medicines to put in the mouth and boiling water to drink.
medicine.
In fact, there is no need to worry about making a mistake. Each medicine comes with an instruction note. What needs to be paid attention to, how much water needs to be used, and how long it needs to be boiled are all clearly marked.
The He family put away the precious medicines and washed them quickly. He Mingxin had to go to class. He didn't have breakfast with everyone. He ran to kiss his great-grandmother and left the hospital to take the subway back to school.
Eat takeout early. After breakfast, the medicine is almost ready. Pour it out and cool it down. Boil it for the third time. At 7:30, the medicine is ready after the third time. Three-in-one. Everyone gives the medicine to the ancestors, then packs the luggage and sends it to the car.
, after 8:30, the hospital staff officially handed over the shift, and He Zirong and He Zirui went to the doctor in person to go through the discharge procedures.
The attending doctors and hospital leading experts all knew that Mr. He was terminally ill and could not save his life. The family hoped that the old man could spend his last moments peacefully at home. They also understood the family's mood, agreed to the family's request, and signed for the He family to undergo discharge surgery.
.
The hospital leaders and the attending doctor signed, and the procedure was given the green light.
Everyone in the He family and the medical staff pushed Ancestor He downstairs. Yan Xing picked up his great-grandma and got into the car. He Zirong and He Zirui sat in the same car. He Qili and others thanked the medical staff again and again and boarded the car separately. There were seven cars in a row.
