Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Don’t Want the Youngest Daughter to Stay Here for a Peasant Son-in-law
Mother Yun turned to look at Xiao Bao and waved her hand, "We’ll visit Grandma’s place later."
Once seated on the ox cart, Mother Yun felt somewhat uncomfortable, but seeing that everyone else was used to it, she didn’t complain about being uncomfortable, and it was indeed much faster than walking.
"Educated Youth Yun, is this your mother?"
Yun Xiaoxiao glanced at the auntie, "Mmm, my mom missed me and came to see me. But because it’s close to the New Year and the factory is busy, she must rush back to work, so I’m escorting her a bit."
This explanation was flawless, without any issues.
"Xiaoxiao, you’ve been in our brigade for these years; thank you all for taking care of her."
Seeing such a polite Educated Youth Yun’s mother, who resembled a female cadre, the aunties felt somewhat constrained.
"Zhao Laosan has taken very good care of Educated Youth Yun. Ever since Educated Youth Yun married Zhao Laosan, she hasn’t had to do any fieldwork. Even for their homestead land, it is Zhao Laosan who does the work."
The others joined in agreement.
Anyway, they were all singing Laosan’s praises.
And so they arrived at the town.
"Educated Youth Yun, we’re getting off here."
Yun Xiaoxiao quickly got off the cart, carrying her things, and also lifted Da Bao down from the ox cart.
"We’ll wait for the bus over there..." There were no central stations in their town, so they could only wait by the roadside.
"Xiaoxiao, you used to get average grades, but with a bit of effort, you have a chance to get into a school. Whether it’s a technical secondary school or a junior college, when you graduate, you’ll have a job," Mother Yun didn’t want her younger daughter to stay here for a son-in-law who’s a country bumpkin.
She kept advising.
"I know. Da Bao’s father agrees with whatever I want, and if I go to school, he’ll accompany me."
This is what he’s afraid you’ll run away.
Although she hadn’t stayed long in the countryside, she was still somewhat aware.
If Xiaoxiao really divorced the guy, for him to find another educated wife wouldn’t be easy, especially with two kids in tow. To come in as a stepmother, it was said that they would soon be implementing Planned Parenthood.
Da Bao held tightly onto Yun Xiaoxiao’s hand, listening to Grandma speak with Mom. Although he didn’t say anything, he knew that Grandma didn’t like them and was always persuading Mom to return to the city.
Mother Yun knew that her daughter had grown up and had her own thoughts. As much as she spoke trying to get her to return to the city, her daughter remained steadfast.
"The bus is here." Yun Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand to stop the bus, which halted in front of them. The ticket conductor craned his neck out, shouting, "Quickly get on if you’re going to the county town..."
Yun Xiaoxiao helped to carry the things onto the bus, choosing a seat next to a window.
"If you feel motion sick, tell Mom..." This bus wasn’t open like the ox cart, and some people, although fine on an ox cart, would get motion sick on a bus.
"Alright."
Mother Yun noticed her daughter wasn’t sitting next to her.
The ticket conductor shouted outside for a while, waited for two more people who showed up, and then, seeing no others, signaled the driver to go.
"Your child needs to have his own seat, which means paying for one person."
"Mmm, there are three of us."
The ticket conductor saw this beautiful comrade didn’t argue over the fare and paid directly. If it were someone else, they would definitely have said something like the child is still young and so on.
Even though the New Year was approaching, the number of people heading to the county town wasn’t very high; some took short rides and alighted before reaching the county town.
"Mommy..."
Yun Xiaoxiao immediately put a piece of orange candy into Da Bao’s mouth, "Suck on this..."
Finally, they arrived at the county town. Da Bao might have felt a bit motion sick, but he still didn’t ask Xiaoxiao, his mom, to hold him.
"There are train tickets for sale in the county town; we’ll go buy train tickets first. Then you’ll take the bus to the provincial city to catch the train, is that okay?"
