Alpine Orchard

Chapter 50 Seeing the Parents

It's almost June.

This year's first heavy rain, especially fierce.

The hospital parking lot was flooded.

Lin Xiaomian hiccupped after eating the whole pizza, looked at the mineral water in Ye Mo's hand, and hiccupped again.

Ye Mo handed over the mineral water: "No one will grab it from you, so eat it so fast."

"You drank..." Lin Xiaomian said.

"There is only one bottle of mineral water in the car. If I don't give you an umbrella, you can buy it yourself."

Lin Xiaomian took the mineral water, unscrewed the cap, poured it into her mouth, and took a few sips: "My aunt also praised you for being handsome and good-natured..."

"Missy is really good at seeing people." Ye Mo said with a smile.

"What?"

"I said, your eldest lady has a really good eye, and she is very accurate at seeing people."

"Cheek-skinned." Lin Xiaomian huffed, moved the seat back a little, looked out the window, and ignored Ye Mo.

Ye Mo looked at her and smiled: "Where are you from?"

"what."

"It's okay, let's chat for a while."

"Chuncheng." Lin Xiaomian said.

"Huichuan?"

"Yeah." Lin Xiaomian nodded, "Have you ever been to Spring City?"

"No. But I know there are a lot of pomegranates over there, do you have pomegranates at home?" Ye Mo asked.

"The mangoes here in Huacheng are also very good, so your house...you should have mangoes in your house?"

"Yes." Ye Mo was amused by Lin Xiaomian's brain circuit, and said, "How do you know that my family grows mangoes?"

Lin Xiaomian had a very helpless expression: "You are my aunt's neighbor, and every household in their village grows fruits, either mangoes or pomegranates."

Ye Mo took out the bread: "Do you want to eat bread?"

"Don't eat."

Ye Mo picked a ham sausage bread, he likes to eat salty food: "It's delicious."

"No."

Ye Mo opened one by himself and started eating.

Lin Xiaomian looked at Ye Mo: "Can I take off my shoes, my feet hurt."

Ye Mo had black lines all over his head: "Are you polite when you take off your shoes in someone else's car?"

"Then you keep eating..."

"If you want to eat, take it yourself, don't disgust me on purpose."

"I...I..." Lin Xiaomian's feet really hurt, "My feet don't smell bad."

"It doesn't matter if it doesn't stink." Ye Mo threw a piece of bread to her: "Does it really hurt?"

"Yeah." Lin Xiaomian took the bread, took a bite, and said, "Your boyfriend makes bread? This bread tastes really good..."

"Nonsense. If he hadn't been a baker, I could have gone over to get so much."

"Why are you so fierce?"

"You did it on purpose." Ye Mo's eyes were not friendly.

Lin Xiaomian shut up, took a big bite of the bread, and took another sip of water.

Ye Mo finished eating the bread and opened the window... The sound of rain was rumbling, so he moved the seat back a little, lay down and took out his mobile phone: "If your feet hurt, take off your shoes. Don't be smelly feet ..."

Lin Xiaomian really wanted to jump up and knock Ye Mo, her feet really hurt and were swollen.

"Have you taken the medicine you took?"

"not yet."

"I've had lunch just now, and I can take medicine." Ye Mo said and looked at it. The place where the back of her foot was close to the joint was bruised. I don't know how it hurt the back of the foot, and it was a bit swollen.

Lin Xiaomian first took out the spray, sprayed it on the swollen area a few times, and rubbed: "I'm sorry."

"What's the matter?"

"The spray has a smell, will it stain your car?"

"I'm not particular about people, it doesn't matter." Ye Mo lay down, turned sideways, and played with his phone.

The torrential rain lasted for [-] minutes before it subsided.

Lin Xiaomian also lay down, dozing off.

It was past twelve o'clock.

Ye Mo put away the phone, twisted his neck, returned the seat, looked around, and started the car.

"Are you going back?" Lin Xiaomian sat up.

"The rain is getting lighter, and I can see the road clearly." Ye Mo said, "Go and see your car first."

Although it was noon, the sky was very dark.

There is a muffled thunder...

The car drove out of Huacheng and came to the car repair shop along the Jinsha River.

Ye Mo got out of the car holding an umbrella: "Boss, is the car repaired?"

"Fixed." The boss said.

"Help me hold an umbrella, I'll carry the car up..."

"Row."

The boss helped Ye Mo hold the umbrella. Ye Mo pushed the car to the back, lifted the car up, and then sent the boss back and paid the boss.

After fixing the car behind, Ye Mo returned to the car...

"How much did it cost to fix the car?"

"Forty or so dollars."

"Forty or so?"

"45."

Lin Xiaomian clicked on the WeChat wallet and looked at it, feeling embarrassed immediately, and said, "Can I owe you five cents?"

"five cents?"

"It cost me almost 2000 yuan to go to the hospital just now. The hospital here is really dark..."

"It's only forty or so yuan, no need to give it." Ye Mo said.

"That won't work. For 45 yuan, I will add you to WeChat later and transfer the money to you."

"up to you."

On the way back, there were heavy rainstorms, sometimes torrential rain, and sometimes ordinary heavy rain.

Heavy rain accompanied by thunder and occasional lightning.

On the road from National Highway to Hongshan Town, there was a sudden explosion of thunder, which made Lin Xiaomian tremble.

"Are you afraid of thunder?"

"A little bit."

The mountains are flooded.

There is a river ditch passing Hongshan Town, and the flood water is about to overflow the bridge deck.

Ye Mo drove across the bridge, still a little scared, but after passing the stone bridge, the road behind will be fine.

Nothing happened all the way, and I returned to Changzhu Village.

"Where does your eldest sister live?" Ye Mo asked.

"Aren't you my lady's neighbor?" Lin Xiaomian said.

"It's only been a month since I moved here..."

Lin Xiaomian pointed: "Front, the courtyard house."

Aunt Yun's house is at the fork in the valley. There is a cement road to drive the car up, and it is at the gate of Aunt Yun, a tile-roofed house.

An old-fashioned courtyard house without courtyard walls.

There were three tables of people sitting in Aunt Yun's house, playing cards, when they saw a car approaching, someone looked over.

Aunt Yun was the first to react and came over with an umbrella.

"Aunt Yun." Ye Mo rolled down the window and shouted.

Aunt Yun responded with a smile, and walked to the passenger seat, where Lin Xiaomian was putting on her shoes.Her feet were swollen into pig's hooves, revealing a mask of pain: "Ma'am..."

"Why are you so careless, you can fall while riding a bicycle." Aunt Yun asked nervously, "Is the injury serious?"

"It's not serious. I went to the hospital and prescribed some medicine." Lin Xiaomian had already put on her shoes and got out of the car.

"Xiaoye, go in and sit down." Aunt Yun said, pulling Lin Xiaomian to Ye Mo's side.

"It's raining heavily, I have to go back."

"It's raining so much, you have nothing to do when you go back, come and play for a while. Lao Liu and Lao Qian are here...you wait, I'll send Xiao Mian over to pick you up."

"Hey, Aunt Yun..." Ye Mo wanted to refuse, but Aunt Yun dragged Lin Xiaomian to the roof.

Ye Mo turned off the ignition of the car, took out his umbrella, got out of the car, and walked over by himself.

The rain was still heavy, and water dripped from the eaves, forming a water curtain.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Niu, Uncle Qian..." Ye Mo shouted.More than half of the people playing cards here have worked with Ye Mo.

Liu Bin looked at Lin Xiaomian, laughed, and said, "Sure, you still called me Brother Liu yesterday, but you changed your name today."

"That's right..." Captain Qian also smiled and said, "I wanted to ask you this question before. We called your father 'Brother Ye', but you also called us brother before, that really messed up the generations."

"Playing cards?" Niu Youde asked.

"What cards are you playing?"

"The few of us are fighting, you come and fight, I will let you."

Ye Mo shook his head: "No."

"Really?" Liu Bin asked.

"I really don't. I only know how to fight landlords, level up... I rarely play cards." Ye Mo said.

"Then let's fight landlords, five landlords." Niu Youde said.

Niu Youde, Aunt Yun's man, is Lin Xiaomian's eldest uncle.

They call their aunts "ladies" and uncles "uncles".

"Ye Mo, let me introduce you, this is Xiao Mian's mother." Aunt Yun introduced to Ye Mo.

Aunt Yun's name is Yun Xiuzhi.

Lin Xiaomian's mother's name is Yun Xiulan...

The relationship between the two needs no introduction, they are two sisters.

Yun Xiulan looked at Ye Mo, saw Ye Mo look over, and smiled.

"Hello, Auntie." Ye Mo shouted.

Yun Xiulan smiled and nodded: "Thanks to you today, thank you for sending Xiao Mian to the hospital."

Lin Xiaomian was very embarrassed by the side, and said loudly, "Ma'am, do you have any slippers? I'll change into a pair of slippers."

"Wait." Aunt Yun went to fetch slippers for Lin Xiaomian.

Ye Mo was dragged by Niu You to play with five landlords...
