Rebirth Era: I Lead the Whole Village to Prosperity

Chapter 116 Sleepover
"There will be no one there," Master Liu looked disappointed and dejected.

Master Kong leaned against the door and listened carefully, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "I heard there was movement inside, there should be someone, let's wait a little longer."

Immediately, an old man opened the door wearing a rain cape. He stretched out his head and looked around. Hearing the movement outside, he walked out slowly and shouted, "Who is it? It's late at night."

Master Kong strode forward, smiled stiffly, looked a little more approachable, and explained, "Master, it's so late, I'm sorry to bother you. We are from the Yangcheng Transport Team, and we are going to the south to pull a batch of machines It's raining suddenly, I can't go, I want to ask if I can stay with you until tomorrow."

When the uncle heard that they were from Yangcheng, he looked them up and down, and thought to himself, at first glance, he was a man from the north, a tall and burly man.

Feeling a little more intimate in my heart, I hurriedly greeted them to enter the house, "Quick, let everyone in the car get off, come in and drink some hot water, it's too cold outside."

Master Kong was overjoyed, strode to the parking space, knocked on the car door one by one, and let the people inside get off.

After entering the house one after another, everyone hurriedly thanked the uncle.

Master Liu's face was full of gratitude, and he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, sir, if it weren't for you, we would still be stuck in the car."

Master Kong took a sip of hot water and felt his whole body warmed up immediately, "That's right, when we actually knocked on the door, we didn't know what to do. In the middle of the night, we are all big and thick, so it's good to have someone to open the door for us." Yes. Thank you, sir, you are kind enough to take us in."

The uncle took a puff of the dry tobacco, waved his hand indifferently, "I escaped from Yangcheng when I was young, and I have a very unusual feeling for Yangcheng. I feel very impressed when I hear your accent, and we also As a fellow, you're welcome."

As soon as they heard that the uncle is also from Yangcheng, everyone warmed up.

With a beaming face, Master Liu took out the pot cake he had brought along and handed it to the uncle to eat.

The uncle took a bite, tasted the familiar taste, and suddenly felt a little speechless, pointing at it, "After so many years away, Yangcheng's pot pie still tastes the same."

Master Liu smiled brightly, and suddenly felt closer, "I bought this pot cake from Liji, on Fengyang Road. It is a time-honored brand, but now it has become a state-owned one."

"Yes, it's Li Ji. When I was young, my father often carried me on his shoulders and went to his house to buy. At that time, their shopkeeper wore a big robe every day, and it wasn't too hot. We nicknamed him Da Robe," the uncle's eyes were a little cloudy, and his thoughts drifted into the distance.

Glancing at the sky outside, everyone also looked tired, so they got up and said goodbye, "Okay, you guys have a rest, you have to hurry tomorrow."

The heavy rain last night ruined the yard, and the leaves and branches of the trees were blown out.

Early in the morning, the young men of Xie Ci got up to sweep the yard and filled the water tank.

Looking at the time, it was almost time, and they were about to say goodbye to the uncle.

"Master, let's go. If you have time to go to Yangcheng, I will definitely treat you to a meal," Master Kong invited with a sincere face.

The uncle was leaning on crutches, feeling a little bit reluctant, "Okay, I will definitely go if I have the chance."

The uncle stood alone in front of the door, watching them leave.

After walking for a while, I heard the horn of the car behind.

They got out of the car immediately, and Master Kong stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter, Lao Diao, why did you stop suddenly."

Master Diao was sweating profusely, and his face was flustered, "The car is not going well, it has been humming, and now it won't start immediately."
