In the past, Gu Chen had never traveled far alone. The farthest distance was to go to school in the county.

Although his sister is in Jiangcheng, this is not the reason for his parents to let him go alone.

In this case, we must find other ways to convince our parents, Gu Chen thought to himself.

"Hey, that's it."

After thinking for a while, Gu Chen came up with the reason.

Then, he quickly dressed and got up, and came to the door.

At this time, the sun was high in the sky, and the dazzling sunlight was shining directly from the eaves. Although it was still morning, the heat in the air had already risen.

However, the environment of the small mountain village is really good, the air is extremely fresh, and occasionally there are a few cocks and dogs barking around.

Gu Chen's hometown, Qingxi Village, is seven or eight kilometers away from the county town of Luzhou, which is located in the south of Jiangbei Province and more than 200 kilometers away from the provincial capital Jiangcheng.

Checking the time, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

Gu Chen figured that his mother, Wei Linghui, was already working in the fields, and his father, Gu Ming, should go to the village.

To be honest, he had never figured out what his father's position was in Murakami since he was a child. On the contrary, he was busy all year round.

He always felt that Lao Gu was busy working in vain, had no money, and had no future.

In his previous life, Lao Gu worked in the village for decades, but Gao Sheng never did.

If Lao Gu had gone to work along the coast in the 1980s and 1990s, he might have had a different situation.

Of course, these are just complaints made by Gu Chen when he was bored. After all, who doesn't want to have a good family background and be a rich second generation since childhood.

But complaints are complaints, and Gu Chen has no complaints about his family because he knows how to be content.

Anyone who has read the novel knows that compared to the protagonists of the ASXS orphanage, Gu Chen feels that his background is already very good.

His parents are still alive, he has a sister who loves him, and his family is not poor. There are no fatal crises in the future. Before Gu Chen was reborn, his parents did not die of illness or any other messy things.

Gu Chen's family is not rich, but the family relationship is very good, ordinary and happy.

Of course, when he reaches middle age and lives in Jiangcheng, it will be a different story.

After finding something to stuff his stomach with, Gu Chen sat under the eaves, wondering whether he was thinking or in a daze.

After a while, Wei Linghui, who was working, came back from the fields.

"Mom, where's dad?"

Seeing his mother who was more than ten years younger, Gu Chen was slightly excited.

Wei Linghui put down the hoe: "I went to the village. I said I would be back in a while. By the way, you are hungry, I will start cooking now."

"I'm not hungry, I ate some rice krispie treats."

Gu Chen stood up and brought Wei Linghui a teacup, "Mom, I'll cook, you can rest for a while first."

Gu Chen is no stranger to cooking. During the holidays before, the brother and sister basically took turns cooking every day. It can be said that he is very skilled in cooking.

He steamed the rice in the rice cooker, picked the vegetables, started the fire, and stir-fried the vegetables. In less than an hour, Gu Chen had the rice ready.

At this time, he also saw his father Gu Ming coming back with a face full of sweat.

"Dad, you are back."

Gu Chen directly fetched a basin of cold water from the water tank and said, "Dad, please wash your face. We will eat soon."

Hearing this, Gu Ming was stunned for a moment, took the towel a little numbly, and then smiled, as if he felt much cooler all of a sudden.

Looking at Gu Chen's leaving figure, Gu Ming had the illusion that the child seemed to have become much more sensible after the college entrance examination.

"Mom and Dad, I'm going to Jiangcheng to play for a few days, and at the same time I'm going to see my sister."

While eating, Gu Chen directly expressed his thoughts.

Gu Chen is already eighteen years old and has always been a relatively independent person.

So it's "I'm going to go" instead of "I want to go".

"What?"

Hearing this, Wei Linghui was immediately surprised, "It's so hot now, why go to Jiangcheng? Besides, your sister is so busy at work, she doesn't have time to take care of you."

Gu Ming, who was next to him, also put down his bowl and chopsticks and said worriedly: "It's so far away, you can't go alone."

Gu Chen already knew his parents' reaction, so he continued to explain: "I'm going to college in September, and I'm not going to Jiangcheng by then. I'm just going to see things in advance, and I don't have a sister."

Is it over there? Besides, I didn't say I was going alone."

"If it's not just one person, who else is there?" Wei Linghui suddenly became curious and stared at Gu Chen.

Gu Ming also asked seriously: "Then who are you going with? You have to make it clear."

Gu Chen said: "She is a female classmate in the class. She went to a relative's house in Jiangcheng, and we made an appointment to go together."

"Oh, a female classmate?" At this moment, Wei Linghui stopped eating and stared at Gu Chen and asked, "How did she do in the exam?"

"He is a top student, much better than me, and he applied for Jiangnan University."

Gu Chen continued, "She has relatives in Jiangcheng, so she wanted to go over there during the holiday to get familiar with each other and check out the future schools. She knew that I also applied for Jiangcheng Polytechnic, so she asked me if I wanted to go together? I just thought that my sister would be here

Over there, they agreed."

"There must be a lot of people in your class applying for the university in Jiangcheng. Why did she ask you to go with her?" Wei Linghui laughed when she heard this, "Do you like her?"

Hearing Wei Linghui's concern, Gu Chenshun said: "Yes, we have a good relationship. I went with her and took care of her on the way. Mom and Dad, I have already promised her, so you can't let me break the promise.

"

Hearing this, Gu Ming and Wei Linghui looked at each other and thought, "You have already promised me, what else can we say?"

However, I felt happy in my heart, secretly sighing that Gu Chen is a good guy. He had just graduated and started preparing to start.

In this way, I won’t have a girlfriend soon after college.

Since they were going with their classmates, they didn't have much to worry about.

Anyway, it should be no problem to ask her sister to pick him up at the station when he gets there.

Finally, Wei Linghui looked at Gu Chen with a half-smile but not a smile: "Okay, remember to take good care of the girl. By the way, I will give you six hundred yuan later. Boys can't be too stingy."

Of course, Gu Chen was very happy to get the money: "Don't worry, Mom."

At this time, Gu Chen was very strapped for money, so these few hundred dollars were a timely gift.

The trip to Jiangcheng was just like that.

In the afternoon, Gu Chen went to the village entrance and called his sister and told her that she wanted to go there and play.

My sister Gu Xing was also very happy when she heard the news.

Gu Xing is three years older than Gu Chen, but unfortunately he is not good at studies. He went to junior high school and then went to a vocational and technical school.

I originally majored in electronics, but after spending a few months in an electronics factory along the coast, I really couldn't stand the working environment there, so I returned to Jiangcheng to find a job at the front desk.

Now after two years of hard work, I have changed my career to an administrative specialist, and my career has stabilized.

Originally, according to this trend, Gu Xing should have a pretty good future.

Who knew that meeting that scumbag Duan Zhiyi would lead to the tragedy of divorce later on.

After the divorce, Gu Xing lived with her little niece and did not remarry until Gu Chen was reborn.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen secretly clenched his fists, he must break them up this time.

When I got home, I saw Wei Linghui picking vegetables, and Gu Chen ran over to help.

"Mom, I called my sister. She told me to take a bus to Jiangcheng tomorrow."

"Where's your classmate?"

"I also called her, and she said there's no problem. She'll be waiting for me at the station tomorrow, so you don't have to send me off."

"That's okay. We still have bacon at home. I'll kill a chicken tomorrow morning and bring it to your sister along with these vegetables."

"no problem."

"By the way, what's going on with your female classmate?"

"..."

Early the next morning, Gu Chen carried a big, old bag on his back and struggled to carry a woven bag of vegetables.

He looked exactly like a migrant worker and was ready to catch a van on the highway.

Little did he know that his mother, Wei Linghui, also carried a bamboo pole on her back, saying that she was going to the county fair and wanted to take him to the station.

Hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly became anxious. If you go, won't I reveal my secret?
