The husband and wife of a wealthy school

Chapter 54

There was only a dull sound, the sound of the wooden stick hitting the flesh through the cotton coat, accompanied by the sound of wind.

The kerosene lamp fell to the ground and went out, and before the man could cry out in pain, Liu Guohua's second stick fell and hit him on the side of the head.Before the man could make a sound, he softened and passed out.

The whole process takes less than 1 minute.

Liu Guohua wanted to make amends in the past, but he also knew that now was not the time to vent his anger on the traffickers, so he had to leave quickly.

"Zhao Yan?" Liu Guohua walked over.

Zhao Yan stood up and responded, "How do you know we're here? You came in such a timely manner?"

"I got impatient waiting in the car, so I came up to take a look. I saw a fire here at first sight, and came over when I heard the movement."

Zhao Yan: "It's really timely, where is Yan Cheng?"

"In the car, in such a big forest, if I miss you, I can't delay the matter."

The woman beside Zhao Yan also stood up, holding the child in her arms, and seeing the limp lying on the ground, her heart finally fell back in her throat.

The light was very dim, and she couldn't see the woman's face clearly, only a turban was wrapped around her head, and she was holding something tightly in her arms.

"What is this?" Liu Guohua asked, pointing to the child in the woman's arms.

Woman: "Child."

Liu Guohua: "How old are you?"

"One year old."

Liu Guohua stretched out his hand to the child, "Auntie, I will hold the child, I am exhausted and can't do anything, please rest."

Woman: "Thank you."

Zhao Yan felt that the "Auntie" sounded awkward, and Liu Guohua called it as soon as he came up, and now he didn't care about it, "Let's go quickly, don't make any trouble again."

Enough is really enough tonight, everything has caught up with him, but fortunately there is no danger.

The cold wind passed through the forest, and the dead branches of the poplar above the head stretched desolately into the air, like the thin fingers of an old man, swaying with the wind.

The three of them hurried through the woods, with Panshan Road in front of them, Zhao Yan could already see the car parked on the Panshan Road, and Yan Cheng standing beside the car.

Why don't you wait in the car on such a cold day!The eldest young master is golden branches and jade leaves. He doesn't even know chilblain, so don't get frostbitten.

"Yanyan, there is someone in front." The woman stopped and did not leave, and pulled Zhao Yan down, her tone full of worry.

Before Zhao Yan could explain, Liu Guohua said, "Auntie, don't be afraid, that's our brother, and that car belongs to us."

The place where the woods connect with the Panshan Road is a section of earth cliff, which is steep.Liu Guohua jumped down with the baby in his arms, handed the baby to Yan Cheng, walked over to the woman and said, "Auntie, jump off, I'll follow you."

"No, I can go down."

Liu Guohua: "You are too slow like that, you just jump, and I will follow you."

She was also in a hurry to leave, and didn't want to delay for a minute, so she jumped on hearing the words, and jumped on Liu Guohua at once, the momentum was not small, Liu Guohua didn't stand firmly on his feet, took several steps back, and stopped with his heels on the wheel .

The woman stood firm and distanced herself, "You... are you okay?"

"What can happen, you are so light."

Here, Yan Cheng put the sleeping child into the car and greeted Zhao Yan a long time ago.

As a native of the mountains, such a high earth cliff is nothing at all. Before Yan Cheng came over, Zhao Yan had already walked down a few steps.

Zhao Yan: "Go quickly, you guys go quickly."

In the darkness, Yan Cheng pulled his hand, "It's so long behind the agreed time, isn't it going well?"

"Fortunately, there is no danger."

Yan Cheng: "Why are your hands so cold, why don't you come with us now, and I'll take you back tomorrow?"

"No, I have to go back now. Tomorrow morning, I will find that the person next door is gone, and I am not at home. I will be suspicious."

"Then be careful." Yan Cheng took off his scarf, hung it around Zhao Yan's neck, and gave him his gloves, "You wear these, there is heating in the car, I don't need it, go back and be careful."

"You should also be careful. You can eat this steamed stuffed bun on the road. My mother told me to bring it. It's still warm. Let's go. Send me a message when you arrive." Zhao Yan took out the steamed stuffed bun from the cloth bag on his back and gave it to Yan Cheng.

A few traces of meat and vegetables are mixed in the cool cold air in the mountains at midnight.

Liu Guohua opened the rear door of the car, let the woman sit in, and sat in himself, closed the door, and shouted from the window: "You two are almost done, Ah Cheng, let's go."

"Let's go, contact me again." Zhao Yan waved his hand to let Yan Cheng go, turned around and took a few steps up the dirt cliff, and disappeared into the poplar forest.

Watching Zhao Yan run into the poplar forest, Yan Cheng's gaze moved upwards, and saw the desolate dead branches of the poplar tree swaying from side to side in the dark gray night, and further up, there was only a crescent moon in the night sky thousands of miles away, Sprinkle frost all over the ground.

The surrounding mountains were silent, only the cold wind passing through the treetops and valleys.

Yan Cheng turned and walked towards the car, opened the driver's door, and got in.In the silent night, the sound of the engine sounded, and the high beams in front of the car were brightly lit, splitting the desolate and thick night, and the car drove out at high speed.

He has walked this road countless times since he was a child, and he can walk with his eyes closed. Zhao Yan walked very fast, and he pulled up the scarf to cover his face. The scarf smelled like Yan Cheng's body.

When he reached the top of the mountain and was about to go downhill, he saw the kennel. Zhao Yan reached into the plastic bag inside the cloth bag and took out another pig bone. This time the dog, which stopped barking when it saw the bone, finally ate the bone.

……

As the car started driving, Yan Cheng turned on the interior lights.

"Thank you." A soft female voice came from the back seat.

Yan Cheng looked away from the road conditions, looked in the rearview mirror, and saw the woman sitting in the back seat in a well-behaved way. She looked like she was 40 or [-] years old at first glance, but there were not many wrinkles on her face. Sallow, with a few deep and shallow bruises on the sallow skin, and deep-set eye sockets, making the eyes look big but lacking in spirit.

It's been almost three years, the physical pain can be borne, and the mental torture day and night made her wither quickly in her flowery age.

She sat there well-behaved and looked down at the child on her lap.

Yan Cheng looked away, "You're welcome, we are Zhao Yan's classmates. Here are buns, which Zhao Yan left just now. They are still warm. Do you want to eat them?"

"Don't eat."

Liu Guohua didn't call her aunt anymore. Under the light, he could see the person clearly, and his eye circles turned red instantly, "Sister, how old are you?"

She didn't react for a moment, how old is she?She felt that she had stayed in the big mountain behind her for a lifetime, and after thinking about it, she said, "I'm 24."

Only 24 years old...

Liu Guohua couldn't hold back his tears, looked at her hands and said, "Sister, what's wrong with your fingers?"

The half of the little finger has healed, but the scar is very hideous. It can be seen that it has not been properly healed, and the wound will heal naturally with time.

She turned her head and looked out the window. In fact, she was already numb. She didn't want to complain or cover up. When people asked her, she said it calmly, as if she was talking about other people's affairs.

"One night, just like this night, I ran past, and they chased me back after a long distance. The man was very angry, and he picked up the knife for chopping pigweed in a fit of anger. Fortunately, I dodged quickly. I chopped off half of my little finger, and it’s all right now.”

"Fuck!" Liu Guohua punched the back of the co-pilot's seat, making a lot of noise in the small space in the car.

Yan Cheng: "Sister, do you have any other injuries on your body? When you arrive in City Z, do you want to go to the hospital first?"

"No, it's all skin trauma, it will be fine after a long time."

After getting off the winding mountain road, the speed of the car was increased, and the car was driving quickly on the expressway at three o'clock in the morning.

"Sister, I heard Zhao Yan talk about your family, what are your future plans?" Liu Guohua asked.

"I haven't thought about it too much. As long as I can escape, I can suffer any hardship. I am not afraid that I will not be able to support my children."

"Then you come with us to City T." Liu Guohua was straightforward.

"No, no, just escape, I can't cause trouble for you."

Liu Guohua: "No trouble, we are all acquaintances in T city, if we go, we can help you."

Yan Cheng: "Sister, what's your name?"

"Moon Qingqing."

Yan Cheng: "Sister Qing, I plan to open a restaurant in the next year, but I'm short of manpower. If you have nowhere to go, just follow us to T City, and everyone can take care of me."

The idea of ​​opening a restaurant was only recently developed by Yan Cheng because of Zhao Yan.Zhao Yan didn't quite accept his kindness in terms of money, and he didn't want to see him wash dishes in a restaurant in winter and get chilblains on his hands.

Knowing that Zhao Yan was learning how to cook, he wanted to fund and open a restaurant, let Zhao Yan come over to cook, and let him be the proprietress in the future.

He turned 18, and the trust fund left by his mother can be used, which can be regarded as investment and financial management.

Yan Cheng's mother, like his grandmother, was a painter, and left a large inheritance to Yan Cheng in the form of a trust fund. Yan Cheng didn't know how much.After he reaches his full age, he can start inheriting.

Yue Qingqing's tears came down in a blink of an eye. She didn't graduate from university, didn't get a degree certificate, and was out of touch with the outside world for three years. The child in her arms was only one year old. She knew that life would not be easy.

However, she thought that as long as she escaped, she would gradually get better.

Now, she seemed to see the light of the sky in the darkness, "Sister, I don't know how to thank you."

Liu Guohua: "You don't have to thank me, you're all my own, so thank you."

In Liu Guohua's subconscious mind, Yan Cheng's is his, and this is all because of Yan Cheng's generosity in money since he was a child.

It was four or five o'clock when we arrived in Z City, and it was still dark.At this point, the supper has closed early, breakfast has not started yet, and there is nowhere to eat.

It was only then that I realized how fucking caring Zhao Yan was.

Yan Cheng took the steamed stuffed bun given by Zhao Yan, and asked the front desk of the hotel to warm it up in the microwave. After returning to the room, the three of them drank hot juice and ate steamed buns.

The buns are quite big, and the skin is very thin when baked to a yellowish color. Liu Guohua can eat a big bun in three or four mouthfuls. "This bun is really delicious. What kind of stuffing do you think it is? I didn't eat two of them."

"I don't know, I guess mine was made by Zhao Yan." Yan Cheng said after taking a sip of juice.

Liu Guohua: "So the name is engraved on the steamed stuffed bun?!" Looks like you're going to be taken aback.

Yan Cheng pretended to look at the bun skin carefully, and said nonsense in the tone of "I didn't lie to you": "Hey, don't say it, it's really carved."

After finishing speaking, he laughed first.

Yue Qingqing also couldn't help laughing, for three years, she almost forgot how to laugh.

"Yan Cheng, you look so good." She said from the bottom of her heart.

Liu Guohua: "Sister Qing, let me tell you that there is nothing good to grow up like him except to cause a lot of trouble. A man has to be like me, where he stands, domineering, safe and reliable."

"You're fine, too, and Yanyan is fine." Yue Qingqing pointed to the bun stuffing and said, "This stuffing is jelly. The villagers made it themselves with sweet potato flour. Maybe you didn't eat it."

……

Even though he didn't go home until after two o'clock last night, Zhao Yan got up early the next morning as usual.It was sunny today, so he picked up the broom to sweep the yard, but there was no movement in the house next door. It seemed that the effect of the sleeping pills had not worn off.

By the way, why did he forget such an important thing, Zhao Yan put down the broom, ran back to his room to check his mobile phone, there was a message from Yan Cheng, sent at 04:30.

After clicking on the message, Zhao Yan raised the corners of his lips and smiled, he couldn't help touching Yan Cheng's scarf on the bed.

Arrive safely, rest assured, the buns are delicious, good morning!

The scarf felt soft and cotton, reminding him of Yan Cheng's hair.
