Chapter 35 Going to the County
Just as An Ning finished speaking, two voices appeared.
"no."
"OK!"
Lin Cuihua looked at the proactive An Guoming, picked up the broom on the kang and beat him over.
"You little brat, you're a dung beetle with feathers on it, why are you pretending to be a wolf with a big tail!"
"I don't even know how to get around one-third of an acre of land at home, and I still want to go to the county! If you want to go there, go on your own."
An Ning was a little dumbfounded as she watched Lin Cuihua get up to fight, and An Guoming jumped away.
There was a piece of language she didn't understand, which seemed to involve three animals, but she took a step forward.
"Mom, I'm going to go, why are you beating my second brother?"
"that is."
An Guoming muttered softly, but Lin Cuihua glared at him, and he immediately did not dare to say anything.
Lin Cuihua looked at An Ning and said, "Daughter, let your second brother do the work himself. I don't trust you to go out so far."
"No, if I don't go with you, what will happen if the second brother is beaten? What if he is robbed? What if he can't come back?"
Why did An Ning say three and a half times in a row? Lin Cuihua thought seriously. An Guoming looked like he had a toothache. She is really my little sister! Thank you so much.
Finally, Lin Cuihua turned her head and looked at An Sancheng. All the family's ideas were decided by An Sancheng.
"Go ahead, the kids are grown, it's better to go with two than alone."
An Sancheng spoke, and Lin Cuihua stopped talking.
An Guoming opened the letter of introduction and An Ning packed her things.
An Ning didn't understand either, so she could only look at Lin Cuihua and ask, "What should I pack? Isn't there enough money?"
"Is that possible? There is nothing outside."
Lin Cuihua had never traveled far, but the firmness of her words made An Ning feel convinced.
After the two of them packed up, An Ning looked at the package that was half a person's height on the kang and fell into deep thought.
"Need so many things?"
"It's not over yet! You don't have to take everything with you when you go out to eat, drink, have sex, or sleep. Where can you find these things?"
Lin Cuihua also cleaned up the washbasin and teapot for An Ning. If she hadn't been afraid that the thermos would break, she would have taken the thermos away with her.
An Ning didn't understand either and left Lin Cuihua to pack up alone. After Lin Cuihua packed her luggage, she went back to the west room and brought some needlework and a piece of rag.
"Here, mom will sew a pocket for you."
"I have pockets."
An Ning patted the pocket of her pants and put a hand in it to show Lin Cuihua.
"What's the use of that thing? There are so many people on this road, how can I fix the lost money?"
Lin Cuihua skillfully bit off the thread with her teeth, tied a knot, and scratched her head twice with a needle, which made An Ning tremble with fear.
"Come here quickly, I will sew your pants, and then you can put your money inside, it will be safe."
An Ning just felt bad. She had money in her underwear? If she wanted to spend money, how should she get it?
"Hurry up!"
"Mom, I can keep track of the money and won't lose it."
An Ning fought for herself, but Lin Cuihua disagreed. It was impossible to go out with so much money without an inner pocket.
"It's great. The tiger is so powerful that he still sleeps. Let me tell you, don't count on your second brother. No matter how good your brain is, there's no use running slowly."
Finally, with An Ning's struggle, she kept the underwear she was wearing and asked Lin Cuihua to sew a cloth pocket on a clean pair of underpants.
In order to make it strong, Lin Cuihua sewed it with extremely dense stitches. It is so strong that it takes a lot of effort to tear it off.
"Okay, remember to put it on tomorrow, don't be careless."
"good."
An Ning agreed, and Lin Cuihua took the needle and thread and went out.
An Ning closed the door and sat on the edge of the kang, with the pair of underwear lying quietly next to her.
After taking a deep breath, she picked it up and put the money she spent on wild boar hunting today and the money from selling sika deer inside.
In the blink of an eye, I can no longer tell what it is. It is bulging. If you put this thing on, it will definitely kill your eyes.
The next day, An Ning didn't go up the mountain, but she got up very early because she had to take a bus in town.
This morning, everyone in the An family got up early. After eating together, Lin Cuihua made corn tortillas for the two of them and boiled six eggs for them to take with them on the road.
After dinner, An Ning went inside to pick up her luggage, and her younger brother An Guoping happened to be walking with them.
"Sister, I'll give it to you...sister, are you moving?"
An Ning looked particularly weak with the luggage bag on her back. The luggage bag was higher than her head, and the tea jar was hanging clinking next to her.
"What are you moving to? Don't bring too many things with you when you go out."
Lin Cuihua felt that there was nothing wrong with her at all, so she hugged An Ning tightly and said, "It's very good. I'm taking everything with me."
"good."
An Ning doesn't have any objections, it's not particularly heavy to carry anyway.
An Guoming, who came back from getting his things, was also shocked by the luggage bag, but he didn't dare to say anything and just shouted to An Ning to leave quickly.
The three brothers and sisters left together before dawn.
"Come back early and be careful."
"Did you get the letter of introduction?"
"Second brother, keep an eye on your little sister, and don't let her go away on her own."
Lin Cuihua at the door couldn't help but chatter a few words, and several people agreed, waved, and left.
Among the three people leaving, An Guoping originally wanted to help carry the backpack, but An Ning refused and urged him to leave first.
Because An Guoming was not very fast, An Guoping was going to study in the morning and was a little anxious, so he ran away alone.
An Guoming watched his little brother run away and slapped his schoolbag on his thigh. He nodded and said, "This schoolbag is indeed not very convenient."
An Ning said nothing and walked with An Guoming to the bus station in the town. There is a bus here that goes to the county seat every day.
Fortunately, the two of us left early and still had seats after buying our tickets.
When the two of them got into the car, An Ning took a few more glances at the car and concluded that it was just a piece of iron sheet, wrapping a transmitter and delivering four wheels.
"Little sister, sit here."
An Guoming sat down in the penultimate row, which was two adjacent seats. An Ning took off his luggage bag and put it on the shelf above the seat.
One of her own bags, the shelf was almost full.
An Ning sat inside by the window, and An Guoming sat outside. There were only a few seats in the car, and they were filled one after another.
Those who came up from behind, those who didn't have seats, sat on the engine cover first, and those who didn't have seats at the back had to stand.
There was no peace of mind, holding a dictionary in my hand and flipping through the pages.
As for An Guoming, he was already chatting with the people next to him. He didn't reveal what he was doing, and just talked nonsense.
"Bright, hurry up!"
The familiar voice made An Guoming quickly look up. Miao Xiaohua and Chen Mingliang were coming up from the car door.
"unlucky."
An Guoming spat secretly and touched An Ning, who was concentrating, with his elbow.
An Ning raised her head slightly and saw An Guoming's mouth twitching to one side.
"Second brother, your mouth is cramped?"
An Ning raised the dictionary in her hand. That gesture scared An Guoming and quickly stopped her.
"No, no, no cramps." An Guoming pointed a finger at the car door and whispered, "Those two idiots."
An Ning put down the dictionary and looked at the car door.
Miao Xiaohua and Chen Mingliang.
"oh."
An Ning said calmly and continued to open the dictionary and read the words.
"It's not important to us."
