Taxi at night

Chapter 33, Home Life

After urgently purchasing some daily necessities from the vegetable market, the two of them dared not stay where they were for a moment, and rushed back to Shuangjing Hutong.

In fact, not only the two of them, but almost everyone came and went in a hurry, unsmiling.

Even though he was in such a hurry, he was still one step late when he came back.

With sharp eyes, Lu Ren noticed from a distance that the intersection had been closed by a temporary roadblock, and several men wearing red armbands were busy checking some people entering and leaving.

"Hey, do you live here? Outsiders are not allowed to enter." A tall and thin man stepped forward to stop the two of them and asked very seriously.

"That's right, the road is closed. We went out to buy some things." Lu Ren pointed at the tricycle that had returned with a full load, and replied panting.

"Yes, it's time to buy more things. I'll be sleepy for a few days... Also, let me inform you that no travel is allowed at night, and you are not allowed to go out unless there are special circumstances." The tall man glanced slightly, and stepped aside. He waved his hand to signal the two to pass, and kindly reminded them.

When the two returned to their residence, Lu Ren unloaded his belongings first, and then helped drive the car and goods into Yaoqin courtyard.

"I'm back." Uncle Li swayed in from outside the courtyard, saw that there were more than half a carload of daily necessities left, and said in his mouth: "Xiao Yao, you have prepared carefully and for a long time, I guess Your mother and I can't finish eating in half a month."

"Uncle Li, the weather is cold, so I bought some more. Why didn't I see Tiantian? You won't run out to play, right?" Due to the unified action of the whole city, Tiantian's school is temporarily closed for a few days, and the children are happy now broken.Yao Qin couldn't help but feel a little worried when Tian Tian was nowhere to be seen.

"Tiantian is watching TV in the house...Xiao Yao, why is there no protective equipment in this car? Mask disinfectant is indispensable...I was afraid that you would miss it, so I came here to ask, and sure enough... I forgot." Uncle Li said in the After carefully looking through the tricycle for a few times, he couldn't find anything, so he said anxiously.

"That thing has to go to the pharmaceutical company, and the vegetable market doesn't have it." While rushing to unload the goods, Lu Ren took the time to explain why he didn't buy it.

"Go now, I'm afraid there will be no stock if it's late." Uncle Li raised his head and glanced at Lu Ren. He felt that the kid had no hair on his mouth, that he was weak in his work, and that he was still a little tender...but he turned his head and said to Yao Qin.

"Xiao Lu, you have quicker legs. Buy more masks and disinfectants." It was the first time everyone experienced this kind of scene, and they had no experience to follow, so they had to do it instinctively.

Yao Qin took out the money and handed it to Lu Ren.

Can I take this money?Lu Ren hesitated for a moment, but still took the money.He has his own considerations, especially in the presence of outsiders.

At the entrance of a hospital company closest to the house, there was a long queue of people who had heard the news.

Lu Ren inquired quietly, and it turned out that it was a limited sale, and each ID card could only receive one pack of masks and one bottle of disinfectant.

He decided to go to a big pharmaceutical company farther away to buy it. Here, he might not be able to buy it when it happened to him.

Guo Yi wandered the streets in a taxi.In the morning, there were still some people who took the bus. After lunch, he found that the business slowed down. By [-]:[-] p.m., almost no one took the bus.

In desperation, he had no choice but to call Lu Ren and told him to rest at night and contact him in a few days.Tomorrow he will also close the car to rest.

"Since you're not going to work, come to my house for dinner at night, so don't fire alone." After hearing the news that Lu Ren was resting at home, Yao Qin ran over and said to him.

"The notice said that they are not allowed to wander around? I won't go." Lu Ren refused with a little embarrassment, and then watched Yao Qin leave with a disappointed face, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Yao Qin went back to her home sullenly. As soon as she walked into the kitchen, she saw the rich dishes prepared on the chopping board.

She finally made up her mind and was going to have a showdown with Lu Ren tonight to bring their relationship to a perfect end.

How did things become like this?She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, sat slumped on the bench, puzzled.

The sky gradually darkened, Tiantian ran into the kitchen, saw her mother sitting in a daze, and also noticed something unusual, she couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Mom, what's wrong with you? I'm hungry."

"Heh... are you hungry? Mom, I'll cook for you now." Yao Qin came back to her senses, reached out and stroked the child's hair, sighed secretly, regained her spirits, and started busy cooking for her daughter meal.

A dinner that could change the fate of the two was silently rejected by Lu Ren.

Lu Ren's dinner was very simple, steamed buns with porridge and a plate of pickles.He ate with relish and felt sweet.However, this peaceful rhythm was quickly broken. Tang Xue's greeting calls came in every two or three days without accident, and he still had to answer them.

"Brother, are you still running a taxi?" There was a lot of noise on the phone, as if it was in the dormitory.

"I really want to." Lu Ren sighed, drank the last mouthful of porridge, and lay on his back on the sofa.

"Do you eat alone?" There is something in this sentence.

"Um…"

"We're stuck in the school too, not allowed in and out, it's so boring."

"Really? How could I hear the opposite meaning? I think you guys are having a great time." There were bursts of laughter faintly coming from the phone. The girls were playing and playing in the dormitory. Just listen to Tang Xue's words. , cannot be taken seriously at all.

"Hee hee..." Tang Xue giggled.

"If it's all right, I'll hang up. After a few days of rest, I can't go out casually. I want to go to bed earlier... I'm very sleepy during this time." Lu Ren was also speechless to this godmother who chased after her. , I don’t want to waste any boring time, recently there is a spy movie on TV, and I am addicted to watching it, so I want to hang up the phone.

"Brother, there is something I want to ask you. Please help me refer to it, should I go or not?" Tang Xue quickly brought up the important topic, and it turned out that she really had something to ask him for advice.

"What's the matter?" Lu Ren had no choice but to continue to listen patiently. Could it be another story about a male student's courtship?At the beginning, he was still interested in getting involved and helping out with ideas... He listened too much, but he couldn't get any more energy.

"Have you heard of Laomiao Township?"

"Well, I've been there before, and there's a middle school. What's the matter? You were sorted there." This was a new situation, and Lu Ren raised his spirits all of a sudden, and asked with concern.

"Well, the city can't arrange it all at once. I want to work for a few years. Brother, what do you think?"

"I think it's okay. It's close to the city, about 12 kilometers away. It's also convenient to go to the city on weekends."

"In the second half of next year, I plan to go there for an internship. If everything goes well, I will probably stay there. Brother, you can come and pick me up at any time. I heard that the traffic there is not very convenient." Tang Xue didn't seem very happy about it. Satisfied, but she had no other way out, so she had to make do with it.

"Okay. I guess by then, brother will have his own car to drive!" Lu Ren agreed, no matter who let her be his sister, even though he admitted it.
