OBS Chapter 835 Departure to Xi City
Chapter 835 Departure to Xi City
Because they needed to borrow a car, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao slept in the town on the night of the 13th.
At around four in the morning, while it was still dark, the two of them drove into the production team.
The villagers were still asleep at this time, so the two of them drove the car back home carefully.
In order to avoid being discovered by the villagers in the production team, they were very careful and did not even dare to turn on the car lights. They used flashlights covered with several layers of glass for lighting.
Fortunately, it hasn't snowed in the past few days, and the main roads in the village have been cleared by the villagers.
As for the path leading to their homes, the two people who had been prepared had cleared it out one day in advance.
As soon as the two drove the car out of the yard, they woke up Liu Jianjun who was prepared.
He pushed Liu Jianguo who was still sleeping beside him and said, "Brother, wake up, it seems that Mingxuan and the others are back.
Didn't you say you would go to town with us and borrow a phone from the Public Security Bureau to call the army?"
Liu Jianguo was pushed awake and rubbed his face roughly to wake himself up.
"I'll open the door for them. Brother, hurry up and put on your clothes."
Liu Jianjun hurriedly put on a thick cotton jacket, opened the door with his shoes on, and walked into the yard to open the gate for the two people.
As soon as I opened the gate, I saw Zhao Junhao was about to raise his hand to knock on the door.
Zhao Junhao was surprised to see the gate open and was about to knock on it. After seeing clearly that it was Liu Jianjun in the light of the snow, he asked curiously,
"Brother, how did you know we were back?
Could it be that he got up to go to the bathroom and happened to hear the noise? "
"Why get up so late? I knew you guys would be back around this time, so I got up as soon as I heard any noise.
Did you guys get enough sleep tonight? Otherwise, you won’t be able to hold on until tomorrow morning.”
"Don't worry, brother. We've had a good sleep."
Hearing this, Liu Jianjun nodded, "Then you guys go in quickly, take a rest and move your things to the car.
We have to leave quickly before the villagers wake up.
Otherwise, if they see a car, they will surround it and they won’t be able to get away.”
Zhou Mingxuan nodded, "That's what we thought, otherwise we wouldn't have come back at this time."
The three of them walked into the house and just in time saw Liu Jianguo coming out after getting dressed.
Seeing Liu Jianguo, Liu Jianjun ordered unceremoniously, "Brother, go to Xiaoxue and ask her to get up and come over quickly.
The three of us have to load our things into the car and prepare food.”
Liu Jianguo was not very good at cooking, but he did not refuse. He agreed and walked out, planning to call Liu Jingxue.
When Liu Jingxue came over, the luggage had already been loaded into the car and several people were waiting for her there to have breakfast.
Seeing her come in, Zhou Mingxuan quickly called out, "Xiaoxue, come and eat noodles.
We'll set off after dinner."
Liu Jingxue took off her thick cotton jacket and put it on the kang to warm up, then went to the kitchen with a few others to eat noodles without hesitation.
After eating and drinking, the five of them locked the door and got in the car and set off.
After carefully driving the car out of the village for some distance, Liu Jianguo started to step on the accelerator and sped up towards the town.
They were still some distance away from the town, and when they reached the main road leading to the city, Liu Jianguo turned off the engine.
"I'm here now, I'll walk to town later.
Who will drive next?"
Zhao Junhao heard this and said, "Let me do it.
I'll drive for a while, then take over for Mingxuan, so that Brother Jianjun can have a good rest.
Xiaoxue won’t be attending the meeting, so after we get on the train in the afternoon, he has to drive the car back alone.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Jianjun did not reject his kindness.
“I’ll go back straight after I finish the call and won’t wait for you in town.
When you come back to return the car, you don’t need to look for me, just go back directly.” Liu Jianguo reminded before getting off the car.
Liu Jianjun nodded, "Okay, we got it."
"Brother, don't forget what I told you to buy yesterday, remember to buy those New Year goods.
And the tickets I gave you yesterday, did you bring them with you?" Liu Jingxue reminded quickly.
Liu Jianguo patted his pocket and said, "Don't worry, I won't forget it.
But after you drop them off in the car and drive back to town, it will probably be evening already.
When you return to the production team, be sure to pay attention to safety."
Liu Jianjun pointed to the trunk and said, "Don't worry, you can see that we brought bows and arrows, and even two flashlights.
With Xiaoxue and I's abilities, you have nothing to worry about."
Liu Jianguo couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "I was overthinking.
There are only two of you humanoid weapons. No matter if you encounter bad guys or wild beasts coming down the mountain, you will be the only ones who are unlucky.
I'm more worried about myself than about you."
Hearing this, Liu Jianjun smiled proudly, "That's good to know.
If you know you are weak, then practice well.
Hurry up and practice the ancient martial arts I taught you these two days, and then I can teach you other things later."
Liu Jianguo got out of the car, Zhao Junhao sat in the driver's seat and started the car.
Zhou Mingxuan quickly rolled down the car window and said to Liu Jianguo outside,
"Brother Jianguo, when Haozi and I come back after the holiday, I'm afraid your family and Brother Jianjun will have already returned to the army.
Remember to write to us later."
Liu Jianguo reached into the car and patted Zhou Mingxuan on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I won't forget it.
As for you and Junhao, I'll leave it to you to take care of my parents and Xiaoxue."
"Don't worry, brother Jianguo, we will take good care of them.
But with Xiaoxue here, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu don't need us to take care of them. Instead, we are the ones who receive a lot of care from Xiaoxue."
Liu Jianguo smiled and said, "We are all family. Today I take care of you, and tomorrow you take care of me. It's mutual.
Let’s not be so polite.”
After a few more pleasantries, the car finally started.
The car drove away for a long distance and still saw Liu Jianguo waving and greeting us.
They set off early and arrived in Xi City around eight in the morning.
Cars at that time did not have air conditioning or heating like cars in later generations.
It's such a cold day. Even if you are sitting in a car and wearing more clothes, you will still feel cold. It feels like the cold wind is blowing from all directions.
As they were about to enter the city, Zhou Mingxuan stopped the car on the side of the road and turned back to ask Liu Jianjun for advice.
“It’s only a little after eight o’clock now, and our train is at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, so it’s still early.
It's impossible for us to stay in the car in such a cold day. We will definitely catch a cold.
How about we find a place to stay for a few hours?"
Liu Jianjun himself didn't feel anything. He was in high spirits and wore many clothes, so he didn't feel cold at all.
But he glanced at Liu Jingxue. Although his younger sister was very capable, she was a girl after all and definitely not resistant to the cold.
Moreover, these two boys have not received rigorous training, and I am afraid they cannot stand the cold for several hours.
“We can find a place to stay, but where can we go?
If I go to a guesthouse and just stay for a few hours without staying overnight, they won’t agree, right?
What's more, we have both men and women, and people might think we are up to something bad.
Besides, there are so many things in the car, loading and unloading is too troublesome, and I am a little worried about leaving them in the car." Liu Jianjun said worriedly.
