Chapter 347: The Way Home (Second Update)
Although Debora was mentally prepared for what Rong Guang said, when she really began to experience it, she realized that she was not as strong as she thought.
The previous roads were quite good, and taking a plane and a car was nothing more than a long-distance bus from the provincial capital to the county seat that was relatively early and relatively bad.
It was also quite pleasant to meet Sister Rongguang who came to pick them up in the county seat.
Rongguang's sister Rong Xiaomo is a very quiet girl who doesn't talk much, but she always has a smile on her face, which makes people feel good involuntarily.
Comparatively speaking, Debola's impression of Rong Xiaomo is much better than her impression of Rongguang.
She really can't imagine that Rong Xiaomo, a sister who seems to be well-read, why would she have such a younger brother who is not familiar with human feelings......
Rong Xiaomo was joined by a tractor driver from the village, who drove a farm tractor.
This is the means of transportation that takes them back to the village.
Considering that Debora had never experienced such a toss, Rong Xiaomo also specially spread some hay in the car body, and covered it with a layer of quilt on top, so that Debora would be much softer when she sat on it.
And so the group set off.
Along the way, a fair-skinned, delicate facial features, tall and bumpy foreign beauty was made on the tattered tractor, which made them a scene on the streets of this small county town, and everywhere they went, the return rate was 100%.
After walking about ten kilometers of road from the county seat, the tractor turned from a very inconspicuous fork in the road into a dirt path hidden in the woods.
After that, Debola's hell came......
The road sucks, very bad. Because it had just rained two days ago, the muddy water on the road had not dried up, and the road was bumpy and crushed by the wheels of the tractor. The black smoke from the tractor was blown backwards by the wind, and Debora choked and coughed.
Despite the hay and bedding underneath her buttocks, Debora soon felt like she was falling apart.
The roar of the tractor's engine was constant, noisy at first, but then it became a buzz in her ears.
She even suspected that the tinnitus would last for a long time......
In addition to choking, jolting and tinnitus, Debora also suffered from motion sickness — not even on a trip to the rainforest to visit the Indian tribes.
She even felt much better if she walked on her own.
Debora, who couldn't help it, finally leaned on the railing and vomited.
is still the most beautiful scenery in the county, and at this time her temperament and image are all gone......
Rong Xiaomo, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly reached out and patted Debora on the back.
Rong Guang hummed beside him: "I told you everything, this road is very difficult to walk." ”
Debora listened to his taunts, and had no strength to refute them. One mouth and I want to vomit again.
However, after spitting up, Rongguang handed over a tissue without saying a word.
Debora didn't say thank you, and directly took it over to wipe her mouth.
When she was done, she leaned weakly on the pile of bedding and hay, not wanting to move, just staring blankly at the white clouds slowly drifting in front of her.
The sky was very blue, and it didn't look like the sky in Beijing......
※※※
The tractor drove very slowly, they set off at eleven o'clock in the morning, and their lunch was eaten on the road, that is, one person nibbled on some dry food.
A big star like Rongguang, who earns more than 20 million yuan a year, is also the same as the driver's uncle and sister, eating cold and hard baked cakes and drinking cold white cakes.
Debora didn't eat a bite, she was already so sick that she didn't have the appetite to eat at all, she just drank a few sips of water.
After lunch, hit the road again.
After I started climbing the mountain, the road was not as bumpy as before, but it became dangerous.
Tractors rumble and squirm along the winding mountain road, and some bends have to be carefully maneuvered.
The rocky mountains on one side and the steep cliffs on the other side make people dizzy and weak in their legs just by looking at them.
The place where Debora was lying at the beginning was facing outward, so she could see the situation under the cliff very intuitively, and she even saw the wreckage of the tractor she was sitting on now!
She was frightened, and quickly shrank back, lying down directly in the tractor body, and continued to look up at the sky, never daring to look out again, and trying not to think about those terrible things.
For the first time, she regretted that she had to follow her to see her glorious hometown......
If you leave your life here, it's too much to lose!
Debora was the only person in the car who was behaving abnormally.
On both sides of the car body, Rongguang and his sister were leaning on the railing alone, chatting casually, whether the local driver uncle would also turn his head and interject.
Whenever the driver's uncle turned his head and interjected, Debora was very nervous: Uncle, you look at the road!!
"Girl, this road is really too bad, you have been wronged......" The driver uncle turned around and said.
Rong Guang said beside him: "Uncle Yang, she doesn't understand. ”
"Oh oh oh, I forgot, haha! Excuse me! Uncle Yang stretched out his hand and scratched his head.
"But brother, you're right, this road really needs to be repaired. It's too inconvenient for everyone to go out, I read books that say that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. If this road is not repaired, I am afraid it will not be so easy for our village to get rich......" Rong Xiaomo said beside him. "Things from outside can't get in, things from the village can't get out. In fact, the jujube in our village is very delicious, a big and sweet ......"
"Sister, I made a lot of money this time, I plan to repair this road first, and talk about the wires and running water later, and then repair the road first, and then the things in the back will be easy to ......."
"Build roads? That's a good dare! You have to make a good calculation with the old village chief and the old branch secretary. This is not as simple as building a primary school. In this place, large machinery cannot enter, and can only rely on manual labor. Relying only on the labor in the village, I don't know when the road will be repaired......" Uncle Yang, the driver, said again.
Hearing Uncle Yang's words, Rong Guang and Rong Xiaomo both frowned.
Uncle Yang is right, it is very difficult to build roads in this place...... Very large......
But it's difficult, so don't you fix it?
No, it has to be repaired, this road must be repaired!
※※※
Debora listened to them talking in a language she didn't understand at all, and suddenly felt left out.
This feeling was worse for her than motion sickness.
"What are you talking about?" Taking advantage of a gap, she asked Glory.
"We're talking about building roads." Rongguang said.
"Build this road?"
"Yes, build this road."
Even if she is not an engineering major, she knows how difficult it is to build this mountain road.
She asked, "Do you have any money?" ”
"Didn't you just help me earn more than a million euros?"
Debola's eyes widened: "You pay out of your own pocket?" ”
"Or what do you think?"
"But it's not your responsibility alone. You don't have to take the whole village on your own. ”
"This is my home, I don't care who cares?" Glory asked rhetorically.
Debora fell silent.
She finally understood a little bit, and she was so desperate to make money for what glory......
※※※
After seven hours of turbulence, the group finally arrived at the entrance of the village at about six o'clock in the afternoon.
Almost the whole village had gathered under the big tree at the entrance of the village, and a large group of people had been standing there, looking forward to the glory.
When they saw the tractor, they cheered.
The cheers continued until the tractor drove slowly to the entrance of the village.
Before the car could stop, a group of people gathered around.
"Light boy, you're back!"
"It's been a hard day!"
"Light boy is back!"
"Light boy go home!"
"Guangzai eats in the old branch courtyard at night, everyone is coming!"
"Guangzi also brought a foreign girl, it's really promising!"
……
Everyone came up and talked nonsense.
They stretched out their arms and welcomed the glory.
The glory jumped almost directly on these people - he couldn't even get his feet on the ground, and he was caught by the enthusiastic townspeople.
Debora was slowly helped down from the car by Rong Xiaomo - her legs were weak, and it was almost impossible to stand firm without support.
Everyone was also very interested in the foreign girl brought back by Rongguang, and the children looked around her curiously.
The adults were also talking from afar.
"Guangzai, you also brought your foreign daughter-in-law back!"
Someone shouted loudly.
"What a daughter-in-law! I'm an agent! Rong Guang explained loudly with a red face.
"What's that?"
Rongguang didn't know how to explain it to them.
Seeing Rongguang blushing and silent, everyone smiled even more happily.
"Light boy has a chance! I'm looking for a foreign daughter-in-law! ”
Debora couldn't understand what they were saying, but she could feel the relaxed, cheerful atmosphere. That emanates from everyone.
The faces of these people have been exposed to the sun and wind for many years, their skin is not good, and they are dressed very plainly, even ...... Shabby. But everyone had a happy smile on their faces, and they grinned and showed their not-so-beautiful sockets.
But Debora thought it was a beautiful smile......
Infected by this atmosphere, she also forgot the bumps, pain and danger on the road when she came, and couldn't help but smile.
"Sister Yang is so beautiful! The skin is so white! The clothes look good, too......" A group of snotty children surrounded Debola, and some people were curious to touch Debola's skirt......
Rong Fu waved his hand to disperse them: "Go, don't touch it!" Don't touch my brother's daughter-in-law! ”
Rongguang returned his hand and gave his younger brother a burst: "What are you coaxing!" ”
The younger brother Rongfu held his head in his hands, shrunk his neck, stuck out his tongue at Rongguang, and ran away with the group of children.
Rong Xiaomo said beside him: "Let's go, let's go to the old branch secretary's house for dinner first." Everybody goes. ”
Rongguang looked up, and sure enough, in the direction of the village party secretary's house, a misty smoke had risen. At this time, it is the place to eat, but there is only smoke in the whole village.
"The old branch secretary has made a bloody book, so I invite the whole village to dinner, just to welcome you back." Rong Xiaomo explained with a smile.
When Glory heard this, he turned back to Debora and said, "Can you go?" ”
Debora nodded, "It's much better now." She was still looking around.
Seeing her like this, Rong Guang said: "Look, I didn't lie to you, right? It's really nothing good to see, and there's nothing to be fun about, so don't blame me for not reminding you if you're disappointed. ”
"How is that possible?" Debora looked over.
The sun sets on the hillside, and the golden afterglow reflects the green mountains in the distance. Under the sunset, the smoke was faint, and the low houses were gilded.
Excited crowds of friends poured in one direction, adults exchanged ears, and children walked through the crowd, and from time to time there was laughter.
Although Debora couldn't understand a word, she could feel the emotion.
"How beautiful is this!"
She sighed.
