My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 13
[Chapter 13 The newspaper is blurry, the style of the 1980s]
“Force me back? That’s okay! I’ll try to find a reason here! But it can’t be too long. It won’t be too long to explain to my in-laws.”
After a moment of silence,
Tu Pei said
It was regarded as acquiescence to Xu Lang’s arrangement.
“Well! Lao Liu is relatively reliable and very measured in his work.”
Xu Lang took a deep breath.
“Okay!”
As everyone knows, just when Tu Pei was a little embarrassed and didn’t know how to explain to his “mother-in-law”,
an angry voice came from a high-rise residence in Haishi, the Third Ring Road,
“What? Asking for leave?” She also said she suffered from severe depression?”
Looking inside the room,
a middle-aged man in a white shirt widened his eyes.
“Well! If the school hadn’t called us specifically to tell us to take care of Susu, I wouldn’t have known about it.”
Opposite the sofa,
a middle-aged woman in pajamas had worry written all over her face.
They were none other than Qin Susu’s parents, Qin Yiming and Chu Xiangjun.
“This Susu is so lawless! I think she is deliberately avoiding Xiao Xu. Xiao Xu is already a doctor of medicine at a young age. How can he not be worthy of him!”
Bang!
Qin Yiming slapped the coffee table hard.
“Old Qin, I just called Susu. Susu’s phone has been turned off and I don’t know where she has gone?”
Chu Xiangjun rubbed his eyebrows.
“Have you asked Qin Zihao? They have a good relationship as siblings, so they should know!”
Qin Yiming’s anger continued.
“I’ve already asked, and Zihao said he didn’t know anything.”
Chu Xiangjun shook his head.
“Don’t know? Huh! He must know, but he just didn’t say it on purpose!”
Qin Yiming’s eyes widened again.
His two children have a very good relationship. Now that his sister has left quietly, how could his brother not know about it.
“Then what should we do now? My biological mother and I have made an appointment for the children to formally meet in two days. Now Su Su, she”
paused, and
Chu Xiangjun couldn’t help but ask again in a low voice.
“Meet? Well, I’ll call Qin Zihao later. You can call your mother-in-law and find a reason to postpone the meeting. When I find Susu, let’s see how I deal with her!”
He stood up
and walked around for a while. ,
Qin Yiming then looked at Chu Xiangjun.
“Okay, I hope my mother-in-law won’t have any grudges because of this, alas.”
After a long time,
Chu Xiangjun finally nodded helplessly.
Time flew by and it was already noon in Binghu Town.
Liu Ning and the four of them had returned to the camp.
“Brother Liu, what are we doing now?”
Wang Xin said
after taking a look at the tent .
“Go to the nearest Asai County to rest for a few days! As for how to use special means to force Xu Xing away, we will study it slowly when we come back.”
As Liu Ning spoke, he got into the tent and began to pack his personal belongings.
Although his chairman has made it clear that special means can be used, Liu Ning knows very well that these special means must be measured and Xu Xing cannot find out the clues.
Otherwise,
even if Xu Xing is brought back, Xu Xing will make trouble and come out again in the end.
“How many days will we stay?”
Ma Chong asked from the side.
“In this way, we will go there for ten days. Anyway, the chairman has not specified a specific time! And the longer we stay, the greater the hope of success.”
Soon,
Liu Ning got out of the tent.
Staying alone in a small town like this, without worrying about food, drink and housing, loneliness is the biggest challenge.
“Then Xu Xing’s safety.”
He Shan hesitated.
He originally thought of going to Asai County for a brief rest, but he didn’t expect that Liu Ning would stay there for ten days as soon as he opened his mouth.
“Safe? Xu Xing has a complete house to live in. What problems can go wrong with safety? Besides, that guy’s physical strength is beyond ordinary people. The most important thing is that you don’t forget, he is also a doctor of medicine!”
Liu Ning waved his hands firmly.
At this point, if he still looks at Xu Xing with the same impression as before, there is really something wrong with his brain.
“Yes.”
He Shan was speechless for a moment and shook his head mockingly.
“By the way, I won’t bring the tents and the remaining living supplies, only our personal belongings.”
Turning around,
looking around, Liu Ning spoke again.
“No more?”
“Yeah! We’ll still stay here when we come back in ten days! But when it’s windy here at night, when we go out, we’ll pack up all these things and put them behind with adobe.”
Liu Ning said again.
When they arrived, they quietly hid the car in a mountain col a few kilometers away. It was quite difficult to walk over with these things on their backs, so it was better to just leave them here.
There’s no one here anyway, it’s very safe!
“Okay! I’ll take care of it right away.”
Wang Xin and others thought about this and nodded immediately.
Either because they didn’t want to stay here any longer or because they didn’t have many personal belongings.
Twenty minutes later,
Liu Ning and others settled down and quietly disappeared along the route they had left behind. At the end of the town.
On the other side of the town,
Xu Xing didn’t know that Liu Ning and the four of them had quietly left Binghu Town, nor did he know that Xu’s father and Xu’s mother, who was far away in Hong Kong, almost died of depression.
At this moment,
he straightened up and took a long sigh of relief. Take a breath.
That’s right,
after Xu Xing finished working on the roof this morning, he suddenly remembered that he could use the remaining time to build a cooking stove, so that was the scene that Liu Ning and others saw while lying on the wall.
“Before you know it, it will be twelve o’clock!”
Xu Xing sighed subconsciously as he raised his hand to look at the time, then glanced at the earthen pot stove that had just been built.
This earthen pot stove was built on the side wall of the hut.
Even though the structure of the earthen pot stove is very simple, it is just a firewood burning hole, a frame and a chimney to support the pot, but in fact it is not easy at all.
There are certain requirements for the mud and adobe used to build pots and stoves.
And during the construction process, you have to constantly test whether the size of the stove can perfectly fit the pot.
So much so that it took more time than repairing the roof.
“We still can’t cook at noon today. The pots and stoves we just built are still wet with mud. We need to use fire to completely dry the wet mud before we can cook. It won’t be until night at the earliest.”
After regaining consciousness,
Xu Xing came to the pickup truck. Washed hands.
The water in the back of the pickup truck had not been used up yet, so it unknowingly served as a water tank.
Otherwise, even if the system silently transforms the body, the progress of several “projects” will not be so fast.
“I hope I can gain something this afternoon!”
After wiping his hands and
looking around, Xu Xing did not enter the house but took out a bag of compressed biscuits from the cab of the pickup truck.
According to the plan,
this afternoon was all about picking up rubbish in the ruins of the town. Only by picking up enough rubbish could we get rid of the tents and sleeping bags and replace them with new beds and bedding.
With a new bed and bedding, and the house covered with newspapers, it will become an 1980s-style farmhouse, and the quality of life will at least increase several times!
Xu Xing has never been a procrastinator on earth, he just does what he says. After a few minutes, Xu Xing finished chewing the compressed biscuits and walked to the opposite side of the national highway with the engineering shovel.
Yesterday and the day before yesterday, he had been active on the south side of the national highway and had never been to the north, let alone the end of the town.
So,
I plan to change places this time.
