When Zhang Taiping and Cai Yazhi returned home, Fan Ming's treatment had ended. She was sitting alone in front of the door with a bench, staring blankly at the trees not far away. She was different from her former lively and active self.

An extreme.

Zhang Taiping and Cai Yazhi looked at each other in surprise. Fan Ming's current situation was really a bit uncomfortable.

Cai Yazhi went over and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you sitting here alone?"

When Fan Ming heard the noise, his eyes recovered and he raised his head and said, "It's nothing."

Zhang Taiping asked: "Where are Muhongyu and the others?"

"I'm undergoing treatment at the back." Fan Ming replied weakly.

"What about your aunt?"

"In the kitchen." Still weak.

Cai Yazhi was a little worried when she saw Fan Ming's current condition. Zhang Taiping waved to her and asked her to go in first, then he pulled up a bench and sat next to Fan Ming.

"Do you feel like there's no one in the yard anymore, and you feel empty inside?" Zhang Taiping could guess some of her feelings.

"Yeah." Fan Ming rested his chin on his knees and responded.

Fan Ming had never come here before and could pass the time when she was alone. Although she would feel lonely, there would be no sudden loss in her heart. And after living here for such a long time, she had never felt lonely again, but suddenly

After all the people are gone, my heart

An indelible feeling of loss came over my head. This is the same principle as "It is easy to move from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to move from luxury to frugality". It is easy to go from the loneliness at the beginning to the bustle with people, but if you go from the bustle to the bustle,

Returning to the previous loneliness and loneliness in this environment is hard to accept.

Zhang Taiping also felt it. Without the figures and voices of the few girls in the yard, it felt like something was missing.

"Da Nier also went to school yesterday..." Fan Ming suddenly said this quietly.

Zhang Taiping was moved in his heart and said: "You also want to go to school?"

Fan Ming knew his own situation. Although nothing happened during the time he lived in the mountain, it must be the work of the old man's medicinal stone. It would definitely not work if he stayed away, so he did not say anything.

Zhang Taiping said: "You can enter the school next semester."

"Is it true?" Fan Ming asked unconsciously with a depressed face. Then he realized the meaning of this sentence and straightened up and asked with bright eyes, "Can I really go to school?" But before Zhang Taiping could answer, he asked.

I was a little discouraged and said, "Brother must be looking for my happiness. I know my disease well. If I don't treat it thoroughly, I won't be able to go anywhere."

"Diseases will always be cured," Zhang Taiping said.

"Alas! I don't know that it will take until the year of the monkey to be cured." She doesn't have much confidence in her own treatment, because she has failed too many times before. She lives here because she likes the environment and the people here.

people.

Zhang Taiping didn't want to disappoint her, so he said: "The old man has a method that can cure your disease. The other medicinal materials have been prepared. Now you only need ginseng fruit to cure it."

"I know." Xing Rushui mentioned this to her before, but even with her family's strength, she couldn't find a suitable ginseng fruit. She said with some frustration, "But ginseng fruit is not that easy to get. Maybe you won't be able to find it in your life."

arrive."

"I knew there was a place in the mountain where ginseng fruits that could be used as medicine grew." Zhang Taiping said suddenly after being silent for a while.

To Fan Ming, this sentence was no different from Tianyin. He immediately grabbed Zhang Taiping's arm excitedly and asked: "Really? It's not the eldest brother who is trying to make me happy, right?"

Zhang Taiping said: "It's absolutely true!"

"Where is it?"

"I don't know the exact location deep in the mountains." Zhang Taiping said, "I will go into the mountains to pick the ginseng fruits in two days, and your disease will be cured."

After gaining hope, the youthful and lively atmosphere returned to her body. She tugged on Zhang Taiping's sleeve and said, "Brother, take me with you when you go into the mountains."

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said, "You can't go, that place is too dangerous."

"What's the danger?" Fan Ming asked, tilting her head.

Zhang Taiping made a random excuse and said: "There is a big snake as big as a bucket."

Fan Ming heard Zhang Taiping talk about the big snake in the mountains, and she herself was very afraid of snakes. She gave up the idea of ​​going together, but she became worried about Zhang Taiping: "Isn't it too dangerous for my brother to go there alone?

"I want my illness to be cured, but I don't want Zhang Taiping to take risks in the past. I am torn in my heart and my brows are furrowed tightly.

Zhang Taiping stretched out his finger and flicked her wrinkled forehead and said, "Don't worry, the big snake won't come out if I go there during the day. Besides, even if it does come out, I can run away on my own, just like last time."

Under Zhang Taiping's guidance, Fan Ming regained hope. The depression he had felt just now disappeared and she became lively again.

At about eleven o'clock, Cai Yazhi came out of the kitchen and said: "We will have to change the meal to twelve o'clock in the future. I have already prepared it now. The children get out of school at twelve o'clock. You go and pick them up."

.”

Zhang Taiping nodded and got on his motorcycle.

When passing by Lu Feng's house at the entrance of the village, he saw Lu Feng standing at the door of the yard, so he stopped and said, "Tiantian and Yaya will pick her up together from now on. You don't have to*."

"Then I'll trouble you." Lu Feng nodded and said.

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "It's no trouble, Tiantian is my daughter too, isn't it? Picking her up is a matter of course." Then he left with Lu Feng's slightly red face.

Zhang Taiping couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart. Birds of a feather flock together and people are called friends. Cai Yazhi became famous after just saying a few words. The same is true for Lu Feng, who has a long-term friendship with her.

When we arrived at the school gate, it was still a few minutes before school ended. Several parents had already gathered at the school gate, with the same purpose as Zhang Taiping.

The school bell rang at exactly twelve o'clock. Under the leadership of the teacher, the little children came down from upstairs and lined up in the open space in front of the teaching building before singing children's songs and walking neatly towards the school gate.

Yaya and Tiantian are two years younger than others and are much shorter. From a distance, they can be seen walking hand in hand in the front row.

When they left the school gate, they saw Zhang Taiping's motorcycle. The two little girls rushed towards it happily. Then they chattered like two lively thrushes and told Zhang Taiping everything they had experienced this morning.

After waiting for a while, Ye Ling came out and Zhang Taiping said, "Let's get in the car and go home for dinner."

"Eat, eat! I'm starving!" Yaya climbed onto the motorcycle first.

Zhang Taiping was riding too fast with the beauty of the three little girls, and they were walking slowly and leisurely. Tiantian and Yaya's laughter was as cheerful as wind chimes all over the road.

After returning home, he told Cai Yazhi about the new and happy things in school.

Fan Ming was a little amused when she saw Yaya's happy look and asked, "Have you ever been the squad leader?"

"No."

"You'll be happy if you don't become monitor." Fan Ming curled her lips and said disdainfully.

"But, I am a study committee member." Yaya raised her neck and said proudly.

"Huh! There's nothing special about being a study committee member."

Fan Ming's mentality of saying the grapes were sour when he couldn't eat them made everyone laugh.

Mu Hongyu praised: "Yaya is really capable, and she is still a study committee member, which is amazing!"

After eating, Yaya couldn't wait to go to school. Zhang Taiping sent the three of them to school together. Instead of going back directly, he went to the town to see if there was anyone selling bicycles.

There is a bicycle shop in the town, but it's not big, and most of the bicycles sold are ordinary bicycles. I thought I would come out empty-handed after entering, but I didn't expect that there were three or two mountain bikes inside.

Zhang Taiping bought Ye Ling a mountain bike that can be adjusted freely. This kind of bike is easy to ride and fast. It does not affect the speed on the road from the village to Fengyukou Village. Let Ye Ling ride it.

It couldn't be better.

After Zhang Taiping entered the store, he looked around everywhere. There were only these three cars and two of them were still semi-old. Obviously they came from improper sources. However, Zhang Taiping didn't care about this and fell in love with the mountain bike, which was almost new.

car.

The boss was also a man with sharp eyes. When he saw Zhang Taiping watching the three bikes, he came over and introduced them vigorously: "This is a mountain bike. Most people here cannot afford it. Only children in the city ride it."

of."

Ordinary people can't afford it, but no one in rural areas is willing to spend one or two thousand yuan to buy a bicycle. He said: "I know it's a mountain bike." He directly interrupted the boss's chatter.

The boss who was interrupted had obviously developed a certain level of shame. Without changing his expression, he changed the topic and introduced the price: "The older one of these two is 500 yuan each, and this one is a new one.

One hundred dollars. I don’t know which car you want, sir?”

Just from the price alone, you can tell that it came from something shady. A new mountain bike costs at least a thousand yuan, or even several thousand yuan, but now this one only costs 800 yuan. Zhang Taiping couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

The boss thought that Zhang Taiping disliked the high price, so he said: "Are you doing business? The price is still negotiable. Which car do you like sir?"

"That latest one. Tell me your true price!"

The boss thought for a while and said: "Sir, if you really want it, it will be seven hundred and five hundred. This is very sincere!"

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said, "I can guess where your car came from. The price is too high."

The boss laughed and said, "No matter what, I only paid 600 yuan for this, so you want me to earn some, right?"

Zhang Taiping shook his head. He had been exposed to some things when he was working outside, and he knew all about it. When a car from this place was sold in the store, it would only cost more than a hundred yuan, and no more than two hundred at most.

Not wanting to pester you anymore, I said directly: "Five hundred yuan, if it sells, I'll take it. If it doesn't, I'll leave."

The boss noticed that Zhang Taiping really had a tendency to leave, so he quickly said: "I met a knowledgeable person today. I'm in trouble. You can take it." Even though he said this, he still made three hundred yuan from it.

.

Zhang Taiping paid and tied his bicycle to the back of his motorcycle. After thinking that he had nothing more to buy, he went home directly.

Elementary school students, especially those who live in the mountains, finish school a little earlier than outside. School ends at five o'clock. Zhang Taiping looked at the time and saw that school was not far away, so he waited at the school gate.

He put down the bicycle and gave it to Ye Ling and said, "I bought you a bicycle. You can ride it to and from school in the future."

When she left, she felt a little worried. He took out a dagger from the space and handed it to her and said, "Take this with you for self-defense."

Ye Ling took it and put it in the bag that was easiest to take out of the backpack.

Zhang Taiping took Yaya and Tiantian back to his home first, and then scattered Xiaojin and Xiaofeng on the roof, asking them to keep an eye on Ye Ling on the road to prevent any accidents.

Cai Yazhi asked strangely: "Where is Ling'er?"

Zhang Taiping replied: "I went into the town this afternoon and bought her a bicycle. From now on, she can just go to and from school and learn how to ride a bicycle."

"Will there be any accidents on the road? It gets dark early in winter." Cai Yazhi was a little worried.

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said nothing.

Xing Rushui, who was standing next to him, said: "You can't make a jade without cutting it. Ling'er is like a piece of rough jade now. It can only become a talent after being carved and polished."

"Oh, it's just that it's getting dark today, and a girl like her is really uneasy at night."

Xing Rushui said with a smile: "Taiping has just released two big eagles. With the two of them watching over them in the sky, I believe nothing will happen."

Cai Yazhi felt relieved when Xing Rushui said this.

In fact, the seven or eight miles away is not that far if you ride a mountain bike, and you can get back in about half an hour.

The old man looked at Ye Ling who got off the bicycle and said: "Cycling is good. It can exercise endurance and the strength of the legs and waist and abdomen."

At around seven o'clock, Cai Yazhi finished the gameplay. After everyone sat on the table, Fan Ming suddenly said: "Hey? Why don't you see Wukong?"

Indeed, this guy is Zhang Luo's favorite every time we have dinner, but today he has disappeared.

"You're still here watching TV now," Mu Hongyu said.

Cai Yazhi stood up and walked out. As soon as she came out, she let out a scream. It was not a scream of fear, but a scream of surprise.

Zhang Taiping walked out and said, "Is that so?"

"Wukong is riding a bicycle!" Cai Yazhi replied.

This was huge news. Everyone who was sitting in the room waiting for dinner stood up and walked outside. Sure enough, they saw Wukong riding on Ye Ling's bicycle field in the yard. Everyone felt that it was an eye-opener.

"Oh my god, Wukong can really do it!" Fan Ming praised with a smile.

"Squeak!"

When Wukong heard Fan Ming's praise and the crowd watching, he immediately became proud. But once he was distracted, the car was no longer under its control and fell to the side. When this guy saw the car approaching, he cleverly let go.

Kaishou jumped out of the car, only for the car to rush out and fall to the ground.

"Alas! You really don't need to praise me. I can't do it even if I just praise you!" Fan Ming said sarcastically next to him.

Wukong was waving his hands and gesticulating, and he was still barking loudly. Maybe he was still proud of his ability to ride a bicycle.

Ye Ling went over to help the car up. Zhang Taiping lifted the car and placed it under the eaves, then said with his hands: "Get in and eat."

When Wukong heard the word "eat", he jumped into the house faster than anyone else, looked for a basin and washed his hands. In the past, he was often punished by Fan Ming if he didn't absorb food when eating. But now he has a better memory and washes his hands before eating.
