Chapter 174: I'll take you on a journey again
The next day, before dawn, Gu's mother got up from the bed.
Today they have to ride a car all day, and they must have noodles, eggs and eggs for breakfast, so they can have energy.
After the noodles were cooked, they started making pancakes for them again.
Egg, green vegetable and vermicelli cakes, and pickled cabbage and vermicelli cakes.
Afraid that Mingcha would have an upset stomach and want to eat something sour on the train, Gu's mother also packed some kimchi and pickles she made for them.
When everything was almost done, I knocked on the door again and told them to get up.
Both of them slept late yesterday, and after ordering Jiang Ming tea, they were still a little lackluster.
After getting dressed, they all yawned non-stop and drank some spiritual spring water to force themselves to wake up.
I checked all the tickets, letters of introduction, certificates, and money again.
After finishing these, I walked out of the room and smelled the rich aroma of noodles and cakes as soon as I came out.
Gu's mother just brought out the noodles and invited them to come and eat: "Eat quickly, it's still hot."
"Coming."
As soon as I sat down and saw a bowl full of noodles in front of me, I immediately woke up.
"Mom, this is too much."
Gu's mother was still packing cakes and other things for them. When she heard this, she said without raising her head: "What a big deal. You have to ride for a whole day today and then go to the train to buy something to eat in the afternoon. If you don't eat more at this time, what will you do if you get hungry on the way?"
It seems to make sense.
But this is indeed too much.
Gu SiYan picked out some noodles from her bowl and said, "Eat first. If you can't finish it, I'll eat it."
The pressure instantly decreased a lot. Jiang Mingcha nodded, drank some noodle soup to moisten his throat, and then picked some noodles.
The noodles were kneaded last night before going to bed, and the noodles were rolled out this morning.
The noodles are chewy and smooth, and they are no better than the noodles in restaurants.
After eating today, I don't know how long it will take to eat next time. Jiang Mingcha sniffed and tried to eat more.
It was still dark, so Jiang Mingcha and Gu Siyan deliberately kept their movements and noises down for fear of waking up Gu Siyu and Gu's father.
Who would have thought that just after they finished eating half of the noodles, Gu's father and Gu Siyu came out.
The two of them also yawned profusely, so they washed their faces with cold water to wake themselves up.
Then he sat down at the dinner table.
Jiang Mingcha swallowed the noodles in her mouth and asked softly: "Did I wake you up?"
"Nothing."
Gu Siyu yawned again, his eyes were still swollen, "I went to bed early last night and woke up early in the morning."
Father Gu said nothing but said something.
Jiang Mingcha glanced at the dark circles and swollen eyes of the two of them.
These two people are really telling lies with their eyes open.
Knowing that they got up early to see off Gu Siyan and him, he didn't say anything about exposing them or anything, and just silently speeded up his eating of noodles.
Mother Gu was surprised when she took out the cake and saw the two people.
"What did you do up so early? You didn't even cook your noodles."
Gu Siyu yawned again, "I'll just have a piece of cake. Mom, do you have a lot of cake?"
"Yes, wait, I'll get it."
Mother Gu brought out four cakes.
Gu's father and Gu Siyu each took a piece of cake and ate it with warm water.
"Be careful on the road, especially Si Yan. Mingcha is not in good health, so you should pay more attention to her."
Halfway through eating, Father Gu suddenly said.
Jiang Mingcha was stunned. This was the first time that Father Gu said such words of concern.
Gu Siyan nodded: "Yes, I know."
It was still early, and Gu's mother looked at the family eating breakfast together. She did not scold Gu's father for being so talkative even after breakfast, nor did she rush them.
In the past, we ate together every day and didn't think it was anything.
Now that the two children are leaving, the next time they have dinner together might be during the Chinese New Year. Mother Gu just looked at this scene and couldn't bear to look away.
But no matter how reluctant you are to leave, you still have to say goodbye.
Just like the first time, Jiang Mingcha didn't finish the noodles, so Gu Siyan took the bowl and ate it clean.
After eating, they didn't bother to pack up. Gu's father and Gu Siyu rushed to pick up the big luggage before Gu Siyan.
Gu's mother also hurriedly picked up the small bag containing things they might use on the way before Jiang Mingcha.
Jiang Mingcha: "Mom and Dad, how can you ask for this? We can do it ourselves."
Father Gu shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a short journey."
Gu's mother also smiled and said, "Hey, we can help you carry a part of the way, and you have to carry the rest of the way yourself. It can make you relax for a while, just relax for a while."
Gu's mother seemed to be just talking about helping them carry their luggage.
It seems to be talking about the future.
Children stand on the shoulders of their parents and are supported by their parents to grow up and go out into the world.
But most parents, like Gu's parents and Gu's parents, have limited abilities. They can only lift to a certain height, and they have to climb the slope behind.
Even so, the parents did everything they could.
After hearing what they said, Jiang Mingcha and Gu Siyan said nothing again, and the family walked towards the entrance of the village together in the dim light of dawn.
The sky was getting brighter ahead. When Gu's mother saw that the two children were silent, she started to tell them something again.
"After we get settled there, Si Yan, please remember to take Mingcha District Hospital for a labor checkup."
"Yeah, I know."
"Mingcha, you are eager to make money when you get there. You need to take good care of yourself first, do you understand?"
"If you want to eat or eat anything, just write a letter home. Siyu knows more words now. I will ask him to read the letter to me when the time comes."
The road to the village entrance is very long, but today it seems to be extremely short.
Gu's mother still had many things she was worried about and didn't say anything. She had already arrived at the entrance of the village, where the donkey cart was waiting.
"Here we go, let's go, it's getting late."
"Okay."
Gu's father and mother put their luggage in the car together and helped Jiang Mingcha get into the car. "Slow down. Remember to write a letter home when you get there."
"I understand, parents, Siyu, please go back quickly."
