C483 He Was Rich?
The bus slowly started and Chung Xinyue leaned against the window. Her eyes were filled with reluctance to part with the place.
"Chen Hao's gift for you. You can open it and take a look." Lin Nan reminded her from the side.
Chung Xinyue nodded and took out the envelope from her bag.
After opening the envelope, Chung Xinyue found that it was a stack of money. There was also a letter inside.
"Chung Xinyue, this is the salary I earned on the first day I opened the noodle shop.
I will give it to you as a sponsorship for your living expenses.
Do your best! I like you!"
After she finished reading, Chung Xinyue already had tears streaming down her face.
It was a total of 1,862 yuan!
Although the money was not much, it was Chen Hao's heavy heart.
Lin Nan, who was standing at the side, saw all of this and secretly sighed in his heart.
Chen Hao, this kid, is really considerate!
The bus drove for more than an hour and had already left the city far away, arriving at a remote countryside.
Lin Nan looked at the villages that flashed past his eyes, then tilted his head and asked, "By the way, Xinyue, you haven't told me about your hometown!"
"My hometown is in a small village in Copper Mountain Town, which is relatively remote.
Although it was a bit poor, the scenery was very good. There were orchards, tea fields, and streams!
The people in my hometown are very simple and honest. The villagers are all kind people." Chung Xinyue said seriously.
When Lin Nan was in Dragon Hidden Team, he had heard Ying mention his hometown.
Now that Chung Xinyue mentioned it, he felt that the description was very similar.
It was indeed a pair of brother and sister!
"Has your ancestors always lived there?" Lin Nan asked again.
"I guess so. We have been living in a small village since Grandpa.
Only in our generation did the people in the village think of leaving the village. " Chung Xinyue said in a low voice.
Lin Nan nodded.
The bus continued to move.
Chung Xinyue also gradually became cheerful.
She was very enthusiastic in introducing Lin Nan about her hometown, some interesting things in the countryside.
But... she only did not mention her parents.
Perhaps, as an orphan, this was a wound that was hard to mention in her heart.
Lin Nan understood one thing.
In the village, Chung Xinyue only had big uncle and aunt.
Big uncles and aunties had a pair of children who worked in a small town near the village. They only received a meager salary for a month.
However, Chung Xinyue's parents left an ancestral home for the siblings.
While they were talking, the bus had unknowingly entered the borders of Copper Mountain Town.
This small town was not big and was built against the mountain. Most of the houses were ancient square meters.
Occasionally, there would be some small houses, all of which were owned by the local people.
Lin Nan pointed at the mountain path and said, "Is this the copper mountain you mentioned?"
"Yes, this is also the reason why the town is named!" Chung Xinyue nodded and said.
Lin Nan took a closer look.
This mountain was more like a barren mountain. There were trees everywhere, and it seemed like it had not been artificially developed.
That's right!
If it had been developed before, this place would not have been so backward.
Chung Xinyue added from the side, "The copper mountain is a fierce mountain.
When they were young, the older generation in the village had been saying, do not go to the mountain. There are fierce beasts and poisonous snakes there.
At first, I didn't believe it.
But at night, I often hear the howls of wolves. Only then did I believe it.
Moreover, this is something that the people of Copper Mountain Town are well aware of. It is an open secret."
" Is it that exaggerated? "
Lin Nan casually said, but he didn't put it in his heart.
Finally, the bus slowly stopped next to an abandoned factory.
There were also several other buses parked here, which were considered temporary bus stations.
Lin Nan got out of the bus and looked at the dilapidated houses around him. He asked, "Have you arrived yet?"
"No, the bus is only in town. It will take an hour to walk to the village." Chung Xinyue smiled.
"Okay, let's go." Lin Nan nodded.
"Brother Nan, just send me here. You can directly take the bus back." Chung Xinyue said.
"I have brought all my clothes with me. Do you have the heart to chase me away?" Lin Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Then... Brother Nan, don't complain that my house is old and shabby!" Chung Xinyue smiled.
Lin Nan took all the luggage and followed Chung Xinyue.
After some observation, Lin Nan found that there was only one market in the entire town.
It was convenient for the people living in the town to go shopping. If the people living in the village lacked daily necessities, it would be very troublesome to come and buy things.
Chung Xinyue was already used to it.
She led Lin Nan to a muddy and narrow path and then slowly left the town.
Looking around, there were only large tracts of irrigated farmland.
The sun was very bright today, and coupled with the long walk, Chung Xinyue's little face was bright red, and she ran with sweat all over her body.
"How much longer?" Lin Nan could not help but ask.
Chung Xinyue excitedly pointed to the front and said, "We're here, Brother Nan. He's right in front of us!"
Lin Nan looked over and indeed saw a small village under the sparse tree shadows.
After passing through the farmland, the scenery became much more beautiful.
First was a long winding stream, the stream was clear.
There were many children playing and bathing in the shallow beach.
On the shore, there were many villagers fishing. They wore straw hats to block the scorching sun, so the passion for fishing did not decrease at all.
Walking past the stream, one could see a large piece of fruit garden. The branches were filled with jujubes, peaches, and other fruits. All of them were very fat, waiting for their owners to pick them.
After going around the fruit garden, they could see the entire village!
Lin Nan roughly looked around. There were roughly forty households, most of them like the previous type of tile houses. There were also large and small courtyards.
There was only one building standing in the middle of the village, which was very eye-catching.
Lin Nan felt that it should be a big family in this village.
After entering the village, many villagers looked at these two "uninvited guests."
In a small village like this, there were very few outsiders.
There were still some villagers with sharp eyes who recognized Chung Xinyue.
"Isn't this Xinyue?"
"Xinyue came back from her studies?"
"This girl, I haven't seen her for three years. She has grown so tall and is becoming more and more beautiful!"
“……”
" Uncle Zhang, auntie Li, auntie Wang... "
Chung Xinyue happily nodded and greeted the villagers.
These villagers usually helped her a lot.
As they walked, Chung Xinyue suddenly stopped.
Lin Nan was puzzled and asked, "Why aren't you leaving?"
"Eh? I can't find aunt's house!" Chung Xinyue looked around.
This made Lin Nan laugh. "Has the village changed? You don't even know Auntie's house?"
Chung Xinyue said, "That's not right. I remember Auntie's house is here. It was only a small house before. Why is there a new building here?"
Only then did Lin Nan realize that they had already arrived in front of the imposing building.
At that moment, someone walked out from the house opposite the door.
"Isn't this Xinyue? She came back and stood there. What are you doing in front of your aunt's house? Why aren't you going in?"
As he spoke, the neighbor pointed at the building.
"Is this your aunt's house?"
Chung Xinyue could not believe it and widened her eyes.
Could it be that... their family suddenly became rich?
