After the fifth day, it is "broken five".

There is another old saying: "Three six nines, go out."

Therefore, the day when Yunling left for Wengai County around the capital was set on the sixth day of the first lunar month.Since Xie Yuzhen's department of traditional Chinese medicine gave continuous lectures after the fifth day of the lunar new year, he could not go with his father and daughter at the same time.

Since Yunling is going there on the grounds of visiting relatives, friends and elders, it is natural that the matter should be settled first.

The passenger car gradually drove to the bumpy section of the road, and there were various sour and smelly smells in the car. Before getting on the car, Yun Ling handed Yun Yi a handful of sour orange peels, folded them with a triangular strip of cloth and tied them under the tip of his nose.

There was a little girl behind her with a pale face, and the old man next to her asked shyly, "Little girl, do you still have that orange peel? I'm worried that my granddaughter will feel too uncomfortable, and she will vomit soon..."

Seeing that the old woman also seemed to have an upset stomach, Yunling kindly gave her two.

The grandma didn't expect that she could get an extra portion for herself, so she took out a few hard candies from her pocket, "This was originally intended for my granddaughter to eat in the car, so I'll give it to you, thank you for the orange peel !"

"You're welcome."

Yunling smiled and didn't shirk it, but she didn't intend to eat it after accepting it, and stuffed it directly into her father's pocket.

Seeing this, Yun Yi realized that Xindao's daughter had matured, and she was still a little defensive when she went out.

After finally surviving the difficult mountain road, the trip to the county was much more stable. After getting off the car, Yunling and her two went straight to the small guest house near the station to check in.

"Do you know where your friend's elders live?" Yun Yi seemed sure that she was here to see Professor Lan, so he deliberately asked Chu Songlan's home address.

The corner of Yunling's mouth raised a smug smile: "I called before coming here, and she said it's the residential compound of the county furniture factory. When the time comes, I'll go in and ask the janitor, and I'll know which one it is."

Yun Yi was surprised: "Are you really here to visit someone?"

Yunling burst out laughing, but still answered honestly: "That's just one reason, as for the other reason... Dad, since you're here, don't I need to say more?"

She was like a bright mirror in her heart. Her father was able to come here, one was worried about her, and the other was also wanting to see Professor Lan and other teachers.

Yun Yi shook his head and said with a helpless smile, "Then how do you plan to arrange it?"

"It's already past lunch time. I'll go visit Wolan's aunt and uncle in a while to see if she's home. I'll deliver the things she entrusted me to buy. It's almost time for dinner."

"Then get a good night's sleep. Let's get up early tomorrow and go to Beigou Village early when there are few people."

She made the arrangements clearly, and Yun Yi also talked a lot: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

After a while, he thought about it again, "I'll go with you later, everyone is here, maybe I can get some news."

Yunling nodded: "Okay."

The two ate the steamed buns they brought from home. They asked the front desk of the guest house, and after knowing that it was not far away, they walked to the courtyard of the furniture manufacturer.

Although this is a county that belongs to the capital, but looking around, it is basically a flat area of ​​private houses, unlike the family courtyard in the urban area where there are neatly arranged four-storey small buildings.

Yunling stepped forward and asked the old man in the concierge who was running hot water: "Master, do you know that there is a family named Chu here?"

The uncle's ears are not so good: "What's your last name?"

Yun Ling approached and shouted loudly: "Chu! It seems to be... Chu Zhengjun!"

"Oh, Chu Zhengjun, why are you looking for him?" This uncle is quite cautious, and outsiders have to ask a few more questions.

Yunling replied: "He has a girl who went to the countryside as my friend, I will visit relatives for her!"

The uncle was still worried, so he came out and locked the door, "Come on, I'll take you two there, just turn right here and go straight in, the penultimate house is his house."

Yunling followed behind him, carrying big and small bags, "Thank you!"

"polite."

The uncle led the way to the door and slammed on the door: "Zhengjun! You have guests at your house!"

Before Chu Zhengjun's house opened, the aunt next door opened the door and shouted: "Old Wangtou, stop shouting, the old Chu and his wife are not at home, they said they went shopping for vegetables."

Yunling asked: "Then auntie, do you know when they will come back?"

Aunt Tian calculated: "I'll be back soon. If you want to wait, you can enter my house. It's too cold outside."

Yun Ling looked at Yun Yi, and Yun Yi nodded: "Then thank you!"

Aunt Tian was warm-hearted, and ordered her man to bring two bowls of freshly brewed brown sugar hot water.

"Why did you come to see the old Chu?"

Yun Yi replied concisely: "Visiting relatives."

Aunt Tian was puzzled: "Visiting relatives? I only know that his eldest daughter has gone to the countryside, and she said she won't come back this year. Besides, she doesn't have any relatives?"

Yunling explained: "The eldest girl you mentioned is my friend. She hurt her leg and couldn't come back. I'll come and see for her."

Aunt Tian inquired, "What's the name of his eldest daughter?"

Seeing her vigilance, Yun Ling wondered why everyone from the guards to the neighbors were so vigilant, and answered calmly, "Chu Silan."

"Yes, yes, it is indeed called this name."

Aunt Tian was completely relieved now, knowing this name meant that she really knew the Chu family.Because Chu Zhengjun only moved here last year, and he is not familiar with the people in the courtyard, few people know that there is another eldest daughter named Chu Songlan in his family who went to the countryside.

Even Aunt Tian only knew that there was such a person, but she didn't know that Chu Songlan was not Chu Zhengjun's daughter, but the Chu family's uncle and aunt had already regarded her as their own daughter, so they didn't explain much to the outside world.

"Don't blame me for asking too many questions. It really happened the day before yesterday—a village head named Beigou Village's child was almost kidnapped. The kidnapper has not been caught yet. Everyone is panicked. The entire county is under martial law."

The two came to a sudden, no wonder they were checked by the militia on the road several times for letters of introduction and identification.

Beigou Village?
The father and daughter looked at each other, isn't it the village where Professor Lan lives?
Before they could think about it, they heard the sound of a lock coming from the door next door.

Aunt Tian stepped on the stone, looked over the wall, and shouted: "Old Chu, you two are back? Just in time, you have guests at home!"

Yun Ling and Yun Yi left the Tian family.

Before leaving, Yunling put four oranges on the kang table, when Aunt Tian saw her when she came back, she smiled and said, "People in this city are very polite."

Chu Zhengjun looked at the two strangers, puzzled: "Who are you?"

Yunling said generously: "I am a good friend of Chu Songlan when I went to the countryside. Did she mention it to you before? She broke her leg and was inconvenient for a long journey, so she couldn't come back for the New Year. It just so happened that my dad and I came to the county to do business. Son, stop by to see you and aunt for her."

Chu Zhengjun now understood that she was the guest that Silan had mentioned!
