Road to Rebirth

Chapter 179 Arriving Home (Fifth Watch)
As soon as the car entered the village, it alarmed the whole village.

After all, many people have only seen such a novelty iron car occasionally in towns and counties, not to mention that it is a treasure that can be seen with one's own eyes and can be touched.

Seeing the four-wheeled iron cart parked at the door of the empty courtyard of Gu Ruhai's house, everyone was stunned.

This is because of Gu Ruhai.

Gu Ruhai hadn't been back since he arrived in the city, and many people speculated that Gu Ruhai's family must not be doing well, or else they wouldn't come back once every two years.

For those who are doing well, who doesn’t take big bags and small bags home every New Year’s Eve to show off how good they are outside.

Those migrant workers, if they don't look at it, they can't wait for the whole village to wander around to make people jealous when the New Year comes.

It is to let people see how promising they are.

But those who won't come will not be able to get along, and they will be embarrassed to come back.

So people really think that Gu Ruhai's family is not doing well in the past two years.

Besides, Mr. Gu and the others never mentioned Gu Ruhai's family.

Even if asked by people in the village, they would be vaguely dismissed with such words as "okay".

But everyone knows that it is probably not good.

At this moment, such a dignified person came to look for Gu Ruhai, wouldn't people be surprised?

When the car stopped, the door was opened, and four people got out, there was someone, and suddenly found that these four people seemed familiar.

"It's Gu Ruhai and Li Xuemei!"

"It's Gu Xiaoying and Gu Xiaojie!"

This remark immediately caused an uproar, and people from the whole village rushed out to the door of Gu Ruhai's house to see what a four-wheeled iron car looked like.

When Gu Ruhai got out of the car, he saw Aunt Zhang Gu Fengying, an old neighbor who had taken care of him for many years, so he hurriedly said hello.

"Jiezi his mother, are you all okay?"

Li Xuemei also got out of the car, the door opened, Jianhui was waiting for the door, when he heard the noise, he ran out and opened the door, and helped Li Xuemei move everything in the car in.

Aunt Zhang was taken aback by Gu Ruhai's greeting, she immediately recognized the person, and grabbed Li Xuemei when she came up, "Well, Li Xuemei, this dress is too scary, I thought it was the cadre who went to the countryside to greet you What about the widowed old man. It scares me a lot."

Li Xuemei pulled Aunt Zhang and said: "Look at what you said, no matter how you say it, we are also people from our Gujiazhuang. Even if we change, we can still become flowers."

Pull Aunt Zhang and walk into the house.

Gu Ruhai also greeted familiar people.

Everyone followed Gu Ruhai and walked towards Gu Ruhai's house.

It's all the surprise in my heart.

Gu Ruhai, Li Xuemei and two children have such an air, if they are from the city, no one will believe it. Look at Gu Ruhai's black suit, it should be made of wool, and he is wearing a woolen overcoat , still wearing a fur collar, shiny black leather shoes on her feet, and her hair neatly cut.

The original weather and wrinkles on the face seemed to have faded a lot, and there was still some fat and fat.

But the smile is still so kind.

He was taking out the cigarettes in his pocket, the kind of cigarettes in a cardboard box that looked very expensive, and handed them one by one to the young and old.

Smiling and doing some homework.

Those women had already rushed to Li Xuemei.

They wandered around Li Xuemei one by one.

Looking at Li Xuemei's clothes, his eyes are full of enthusiasm.

This Li Xuemei couldn't see the Li Xuemei back then. Now her hair is black, her face is fair and tender, and she has some flesh. She looks a little richer, but not fat.

The clothes on my body are also made of gray wool, and the coat on the outside, I touched it, ouch, there is fur inside, the fur is really warm and comfortable to the touch, as smooth as moist skin .

And the leather shoes on those feet, with a little heel, playfully look like movie stars in those movies.

There is also Li Xuemei's hands, which are white and tender, and it seems that they have not suffered much.

I'm not envious of that.

They all thought it was bad luck for Li Xuemei to follow Gu Ruhai.

Let's see how she looks like a rich wife when she comes back all of a sudden.

That woman doesn't care about anything.

It's all envy.

The children crowded together at the door of the house and looked around, but they dared not come in.

His eyes have been fixed on Gu Xiaojie, Gu Xiaojie is now dressed like a child in the city, the clothes are so foreign that the eyes can't see it, the playmates who used to be together feel a little strange, I don't know if Gu Xiaojie will dislike them.

Gu Xiaoying gave Gu Xiaojie a push, and the child was awkward all the way back because he forgot the gift he was going to bring to Zhang Zijie at home.

He insisted on arguing to go back to get it, and was scolded by Gu Ruhai before he stopped.

The pouting mouth at this moment is afraid that others will not know that his young master is very upset.

In fact, Gu Xiaojie is pretty good, he doesn't have the bad habits of many urban children, he is a relatively well-behaved child, and he is not the kind of extravagant and wasteful child in terms of living habits.

I still talk about my friends in my hometown more or less often, and I belong to the category of nostalgic people.

Gu Xiaojie grabbed the bag, ran out the door, and got into a pile of friends.

Opening the bag, each person grabs a handful of candies. These are toffee and fruit candies that can only be found in the city. They are all dazzling and rare things with golden wrappers.

Immediately, the children exploded. Those who got candies hurriedly put them in their pockets, and those who didn't got them squeezed hard to Gu Xiaojie's side.

Zhang Zijie, who was a head taller than everyone else, immediately came to Gu Xiaojie's side, stopped the crowd with his hands, and loudly maintained order: "Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, Xiaojie will be crushed in a while. What about you?" .”

This child already looks like an older child, and the friendship between the two of them since they were young is extraordinary, not to mention the fact that the traffickers of the two were abducted back then.

Someone murmured dissatisfied: "Who are you? This is Gu Xiaojie's candy, what does it have to do with you? If you want you to show up, I'm afraid people won't know you two are good. I don't want to see if Gu Xiaojie still recognizes you now. deny."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiaojie immediately became furious.

He snatched the candy from the child's hand and said loudly: "I'm just buddies with Zhang Zijie, why are you so greedy? I won't give you this candy today. Who told you to say ours? Bad words."

That little appearance is extremely arrogant.

The child burst into tears immediately, wiping his tears with his hands, and there were several black marks on his face. He cried so sadly that he didn't dare to cry loudly for fear of being laughed at.

Zhang Zijie pushed Gu Xiaojie, and said with a smile: "Okay, I don't know what you think yet, we are good buddies, and we will never change for the rest of our lives. I'm not afraid of people saying, I just have a good relationship with you. Give the candy to me." Let him have a good day, it's not worth letting him cry."

Only then did Gu Xiaojie stuff the candy in his hand to the child again.
