Chapter 58 A home that cannot be returned to

1975, Beijing.

The north wind was strong all night, and the snow was still falling when I opened the door.

When Ye Muxue and the other two stepped out of the carriage, they were filled with mouthfuls of heavy snow blown by the north wind.

"Bah bah bah!"

Wang Liyun wanted to spit out... she could only spit, and the snowflakes melted when they entered her mouth.

"No good thing will last forever, so let's just forget it."

Zeng Tiejun, who lives in Shanghai, is quite free and easy, unlike other Shanghai men at all: "Today's separation is for a better reunion tomorrow..."

"Zeng Tiejun, can you please stop being so sentimental? We'll meet after the Chinese New Year."

Wang Liyun's eyes rolled around, and suddenly she realized, "How about we move away first and give you some space?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Ye Muxue was about to fight, but suddenly stopped: "My elder brother is here."

A man wrapped in a coat walked against the flow of people...it was Ye Musong.

Speaking of this, Ye Muxue had not informed her family at first. It was when she was chatting with Zeng Tiejun on the train and mentioned the transfer in Beijing that she discussed with the conductor about making a phone call.

The conductor knew that this passenger was squeezed in from the inside, although he didn't know what she did. In line with the principle of being kind to others, he took him to the station to make a phone call while the train was being filled with water.

At this moment Ye Musong also saw them and came trotting over... Hey, he was dragging a cart behind him.

"Brother, how did you get in?" Ye Muxue asked without waiting for him to run up to her.

"I'm doing odd jobs here and I know everyone here." Ye Musong smiled innocently.

"They are my good friends and the people who helped me the most at the youth center... Zeng Tiejun, Zhao Mengran, Wang Liyun, and this is my eldest brother Ye Musong."

Ye Muxue introduced everyone one by one, "Brother, how is the ticket purchase for you going?"

"I'm afraid your train will be delayed in arriving at the station."

Ye Musong took out a train ticket from his pocket and handed it to Zeng Tiejun: "Ticket inspection will be in about an hour."

He didn't want to collect the ticket money, but Zeng Tiejun refused to accept it. The two of them argued for a long time, but in the end, Zeng Tiejun couldn't win.

"We still have to go to the ticket gate for ticket checking anyway, so let's exit the station together," Wang Liyun suggested.

Everyone thought about it and realized that this was the truth. When they piled the luggage on the cart, Zeng Tiejun insisted on pulling it, so Ye Musong had to give him the rope... Originally, Ye Musong thought there was still time, so he could treat everyone to a meal, but everyone was eager to go home and had no time for a meal. Besides, their income was not high now, and they were unwilling to let Ye Musong spend any money.

Zeng Tiejun helped Wang Liyun and Zhao Mengran get on the bus and then went back. Ye Musong also returned the small cart to the loading and unloading section of the station. After returning, he accompanied Ye Muxue to wait for the bus at the station: "Are you going home or back to the courtyard first?"

"When will my sister-in-law give birth?" Ye Muxue answered the question irrelevantly.

"Around May."

"I won't go back this time."

Ye Muxue suddenly said, "I have already applied for return due to illness."

"Great!"

This was Ye Musong’s first reaction...but he was a little hesitant about the next step.

"Brother, what happened at home?" Ye Muxue was surprised.

"Nothing has happened. It's just that your second brother has found a girlfriend and is discussing marriage. The place where we live may be..."

“I didn’t expect that.”

Ye Muxue only knew that Ye Mubai was married before she returned to the city, but she didn't ask for details. "Brother, it's okay. You know I won't live at home. He can get married and I'll give him the place."

"Also... don't blame my parents. Mu Bai's girlfriend wants a dowry and furniture, and my parents don't have much savings." Ye Musong didn't dare to look up at Ye Muxue.

"Did my parents ask you to say that?" Ye Muxue looked indifferent.

"It's really not true."

Ye Musong was afraid that Ye Muxue would misunderstand, so he quickly explained: "I listened to the request of Ye Mubai's girlfriend's family, and estimated that if we prepare according to this this time, our family will really suffer a lot."

"Brother, remember, you are not alone anymore. You still have a wife and children behind you. You have to think about them."

Ye Muxue reminded Ye Musong, "For me... it's good enough if I don't ask them for money."

She was sure that once Ye Mubai knew that she had money, he would find ways to get it... The same was true for Ye Muhan. She didn't want to test her parents' favoritism, but for other people... she didn't have that much patience.

Compared to those annoying things, the affairs of the little nephew and the situation of sister-in-law Yang Xue are more worthy of attention... After moving to the Wu family courtyard, Yang Xue's physical condition has improved significantly, and the conditions of the fetus and the mother are both good... Ye Muxue guessed that it was because of the spiritual rice.

"How's your job of carrying heavy bags going? What have you been doing?" Ye Muxue changed the subject.

"Damn! After taking the medicine you gave me, my health has been getting better and better. One person can do the work of two people, and the work is paid by piece. Now I have saved a lot." Ye Musong was also very excited.

"Does your family know?"

"No. I didn't tell my family. Mom is still mad at me."

Ye Muxue glanced at him...he was okay, not totally stupid.

The brother and sister talked all the way, and unknowingly arrived at the large compound where the Ye family lived.

"This is... Mu Xue, right?" A wealthy middle-aged woman came over and looked at Ye Mu Xue intently. Suddenly she clapped her hands and said, "Girls change a lot when they grow up. They really become more and more beautiful."

"It's me, Aunt Li. I haven't seen you for many years. You are still as charming as ever." Ye Muxue recognized the fat aunt and couldn't help feeling emotional... When she went to the countryside that year, although the neighbors also felt sorry for her, based on the principle of everyone minding their own business, only the fat aunt spoke up for her and even had a big fight with Ye's mother for this. It is said that the two of them still don't speak to each other when they meet.

"No, you're old. Are you back to visit your relatives?" Aunt Li sighed.

"I'm back in the city and I never have to go back again." Ye Muxue didn't mention anything about returning due to illness.

"Great, I'm glad you're back. The Northeast is not a place for a girl from Beijing to stay!"

Aunt Li was really happy for her, "Go home quickly, I'll wait. Let's talk to you later."

"Wait, I'll come and see you after I'm settled."

Ye Muxue felt that she was much more reasonable than Zhou Ru. Seeing Aunt Li was about to leave, she quickly took out a wild boar leg from her travel bag and handed it to her: "Aunt Li, I didn't bring anything back. I hunted some game. This is a wild boar leg. It may not taste as good as domestic boar. You can try it."

"Oh, no! Child, I appreciate your kindness!" Although Aunt Li loved this thing, it was too precious for her.

"In the Northeast, wild boar legs are not that valuable. I still have some here." Ye Muxue stuffed the wild boar leg into Aunt Li's arms without saying a word and told Ye Musong to leave.

"Girl, thank you so much!" Aunt Li couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it with a smile... This pork leg weighs dozens of kilograms and can be used as a dish for several meals during the Chinese New Year.

Ye Musong felt a little distressed, but he didn't say anything. When they arrived at the door of their home, they saw the door open and Zhou Ru appeared there: "Xue'er, you're home!"

Ye Muxue felt a little sad: "Mom, I thought you wouldn't let me come back." "Girl, isn't mom afraid that you'll waste money? Come in and warm up."

Zhou Ru invited Ye Muxue into the house and put a large teacup in her hand: "This is freshly boiled ginger soup. Drink it to drive away the cold."

"Thank you!" Ye Muxue held the big teapot and drank the ginger soup sip by sip, not knowing what it tasted like.

"Mom, my little sister is back, where should I sleep?"

Ye Muhan didn't go out. He came out and asked while rummaging through Ye Muxue's travel bag.

"Set up a bed first. You have to let your sister stay there first."

Zhou Ru glanced at Ye Muhan, as if she was afraid that Ye Muxue might be worried: "Your third brother is worried that you have no place to sleep, not..."

"Mom, I'll go rent a house outside after my dad and second brother get off work. I'm coming back on sick leave and have to see a doctor." Ye Muxue interrupted Zhou Ru.

Ye Muhan looked through Ye Muxue's travel bag. In addition to a few pieces of bacon, there were also some dried black fungus and dried mushrooms... The small travel bag couldn't really hold much. He stopped in disappointment. When he heard Ye Muxue talking about seeing a doctor, his eyes lit up: "How much money did you bring back?"

Ye Muxue glanced at him and said, "About 500."

Ye Muhan was immediately delighted: "Give me 100 first."

Still first?

Ye Muxue sneered: "This money is the money that the educated youth raised for my medical treatment. It cannot be misappropriated."

"Where does all this nonsense come from!"

Ye Muhan was about to take action when Ye Musong grabbed him and said, "Do you act like a brother? You even want to take Mu Xue's medical expenses!"

"I'm borrowing it! She's not going to use it all at once, so what's wrong with me using it for temporary use?" Ye Muhan was a little lacking in confidence, but he really didn't dare to show off in front of Ye Musong.

When Zhou Ru was asking Ye Muhan for money, but when he was suppressed by Ye Musong's bloodline, his partiality came back: "Boss, how much force do you use? Let go quickly, don't hurt him. Besides, he is borrowing money, not robbing. We are all family, why are you making a fuss?!"

She turned to Ye Muxue and said, "Kid, you have been living alone outside for the past few years. It's not like your brother won't pay you back the money he lent you."

"This money was collected by my educated youth friends. What does he need the money for? It's also for medical treatment!"

Ye Muxue put the teacup on the table indifferently, "Mom, do you mean I have to give him the money?"

Zhou Ru felt a little uncomfortable: "Will your family be able to take care of you when you need money for medical treatment? Besides, you are helping your two brothers now, will they not protect you in the future?"

"Ye Muxue, do you still want to live at home?" Seeing his mother offering help, Ye Muhan immediately took out what he thought was his biggest trump card.

Ye Muxue sighed. She shouldn't have had any expectations in the first place.

"Mom, the living situation at home is tight, so I'm going to live outside for a while. When I get a job in the future, I'll give you and dad support."

After saying that, Ye Muxue took out two pieces of roe deer meat from her bag, placed them on the table, then walked out with her bag.

"You've grown up and run away from home without saying a word." Zhou Ru was angry.

"I came back to get treatment, not to donate blood."

Ye Muxue walked into the snow and wind...After coming back this time, she finally fulfilled her wish.

"Ye Muxue, if you have the ability, don't come back!" Ye Muhan was suppressed by Ye Mushong and dared not to take action, but his attitude was still arrogant.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Zhou Ru refused to say anything soft to Ye Muxue, but Ye Muhan's words also made her feel upset. When she turned around to look at the door again, Ye Muxue was gone.

"Boss, why don't you go and check on your sister!" Zhou Ru urged.

"Oh."

Ye Musong hurriedly chased out, but he could no longer see Ye Muxue.

"Look at you, you're only interested in money. No matter what, your sister has to settle down first!" Zhou Ru was also angry with Ye Muxue at this moment.

"Mom, I know a friend who said he would introduce me to a capable person, set up a table of wine, and help me get a temporary job. If I do a good job, I can get a permanent job."

Ye Muhan said casually, "It's impossible for her to spend more than 500 yuan all at once. Once I get a job, it will only take a few months to pay her back."

……

Ye Muxue used Qinggong skills when she left. In a moment, she had walked out of the yard. An old lady was about to say hello to her, but Ye Muxue had already walked past her. The old lady was so angry that she spat on the ground, and then her eyes widened... After being stunned for a moment, she followed her home in a daze and bumped into someone.

"Tiedan's grandma, you've encountered a ghost in broad daylight, why don't you watch where you walk?"

"Sister Li...I'm encountering a ghost in broad daylight, right?"

Tiedan's grandmother pointed behind her tremblingly: "I just saw a girl, she looked like the girl from Old Ye's family. Just when I was about to call her to ask, she passed by in a flash... I looked again, and there were no footprints."

"You should be more polite!"

This person was Aunt Li. Upon hearing this, she said with a spit, "He has returned to the city. Aren't you afraid that the street will accuse you of being a feudal superstitious person if you say that?"

Tiedan's grandmother felt a little numb when she heard this, "Why didn't I say anything?" After saying that, she ran back to the house as if she was escaping for her life.

"What a coward!" Aunt Li spat and left.

Today is Sunday, and Ding Jianjun is probably resting. She plans to go back to the Wu family courtyard to rest for a night and then go find Ding Jianjun tomorrow.

The door of the Wu family's courtyard was ajar, and a child's laughter came from inside... It was Xiaotian! Ye Muxue couldn't help but smile.

After pushing open the gate, the people in the yard looked out subconsciously, "Xiao Ye!"

"aunt!"

Xiaotian pounced over like a small cannonball, and Ye Muxue picked him up: "He's sunk again... Well, he's grown taller, right?"

"I've grown an inch taller." Xiaotian was as proud as a peacock spreading its tail.

"Xiaotian, come down. Your aunt is not feeling well." Yang Xue's mother knew that Ye Muxue was not feeling well.

Old Wu was also in the yard. When he saw Ye Muxue appear, he only thought for a moment and understood: "Are you not leaving this time?"

"Don't go."

Ye Muxue had nothing to hide, "I applied for sick leave."

"It's not easy to find a job after recovering from illness. Do you want me to help you find one?" Comrade Old Wu was very enthusiastic.

"That's not necessary... Uncle Wu, are there any private courtyard houses for sale?" Ye Muxue's heart moved.

"Transfer? You mean buy?"

Old Wu smiled and said, "You are good at taking advantage of loopholes."
