Chapter 121: Big and Small Bags
historical
Wang Qing sat there calmly as he turned to the kitchen and said with a faint smile, “It’s not easy for them to come to our house as guests. Take today as a chance to relax. Don’t go to the kitchen. The two of them are not children. They can handle it.”
Wang Qing’s words immediately revealed whose side he was on.
Wang Yun’s uncle was afraid of angering his cousin who was a government official, so he glared at his wife.
When Wang Yun’s aunt saw that her man was angry, she didn’t dare to cause trouble anymore. She obediently returned to the sofa and sat down.
After Yu Bing finished chatting with Wang Wei, she planned to go to the kitchen to help. When she heard Wang Yun’s words, she couldn’t help but marvel that everyone’s family had weird relatives!
Seeing that her aunt was waiting obediently, Wang Yun pulled Yu Bing into the kitchen. “I’ve let you suffer.”
Yu Bing quickly shook her head and said with a smile, “Before I could react, you and Uncle Wang already finished defending me.”
Wang Yun secretly took out a piece of gelatin cake from the kitchen cabinet and handed it to Yu Bing. “Eat it to fill your stomach first. My aunt is like that. Just ignore her.”
This gelatin cake was a nutritious food for women. Because Wang Yun had injured her body when giving birth, Wang Qing had specifically gotten someone to buy it in the provincial capital.
Yu Bing pursed her lips and chuckled. She would automatically ignore whatever these unimportant people said and wouldn’t be hurt, but the Wang family’s protection of her warmed her heart.
Yu Bing planned to return to the village after lunch. She carried the things given by the Wang family and the Song family, then boarded the bus back to the commune.
In order to earn some money, the old man driving the ox cart in the village took advantage of the fact that everyone was visiting their relatives and friends frequently during the new year to drive everyone.
When Yu Bing got off the bus and rushed over, there were already a few villagers, Yu Yan, and a few intellectuals in the car.
Everyone greeted Yu Bing when they saw her. In everyone’s eyes, Yu Bing wasn’t only the captain of the intellectual team, but also the person in charge of the village’s industrial chain. She was someone with independent personnel immunity! As long as one wanted to enter the industrial chain, one would be polite to Yu Bing.
Yu Yan was extremely jealous!
If she had grown up in her biological parents’ house, everything Yu Bing had today would be hers.
Because there were many things, the space was filled after Yu Bing got on the ox cart. Seeing this, Yu Yan snorted. “If you take two seats alone, no one else will have a place to sit!”
Yu Bing didn’t want to argue with her during the new year. She only said calmly, “I’m the only one getting in the carriage now. If there’s anyone else, I can carry everything.”
They had been waiting for more than an hour. When the old man saw that there were only two empty seats left, he originally planned to leave. Unexpectedly, Yu Bing happened to catch up. The old man was happy that he had earned another person’s travel fee. When he heard this, he immediately said kindly, “It’s fine. If you hadn’t come, I would have driven the carriage back.”
Since the old man had no objections, Yu Yan couldn’t say anything else. She could only pout and glare at Yu Bing.
When the villagers saw Yu Bing carrying a large pile of things, they thought that they had been sent from her house. Because the postman was also on holiday for the new year, but there was someone on duty at the post office, everyone needed to go to the post office to pick the packages up.
A woman smiled and tried to befriend her. “Miss Yu, your family is really good to you. They were afraid that you wouldn’t be able to eat well in the village, so they sent so many things over.”
Yu Bing didn’t want to expose her relationship with the Song family and the Wang family. She sincerely treated them as friends, so she only smiled and didn’t deny it. Instead, she changed the topic.
However, this became a tacit agreement in Yu Yan’s eyes. She couldn’t help but think of the letter again. In the letter, her biological parents didn’t seem to want to acknowledge her, but blood ties couldn’t be broken just like that. She didn’t believe that they didn’t miss her.
Yu Yan observed Yu Bing’s things from the corner of her eye. The more she looked, the more she felt that these things were for two people. If they were just for Yu Bing alone, why would they give her so much?
Half of it must have been given to her by her biological parents!
Along the way, Yu Yan imagined her biological parents reading the letter Yu Bing had sent home. They wanted to acknowledge her, but because she had already been given to someone else, they could only suppress their heartache and write that letter.
As she thought about it, Yu Yan looked at Yu Bing with red eyes.
