ncy building from the parking lot, I don't know if something happened. There was blood in the car." I made a shushing gesture and pulled my junior sister out of the private room.We arrived at the wind...Blushing I raised my hand and touched my face, nodding. "Of course I'm blushing, I don't have money myself, I had to borrow from my senior brother for charity... this is actually a kind act from my senior brother..."

Junior Brother chuckled: "The family wealth doesn't all belong to just the two of you sisters. But since you're still young, I'm afraid you'll squander your money if left to yourselves, so I manage it for you. Since this is for a good cause, I'm giving it to you, there's no need to talk about borrowing. Can you even afford to repay it"

"...I'm not planning on paying it back." I stuck out my tongue.

"Brother Jun, look at my shameless appearance," he shook his head helplessly. "Whatever you want to buy, just tell me and I'll have Seventh Brother prepare it. You don't need to spend a dime, just make a list."

"How about that I swayed my arms around my senior brother and flattered him, “Senior Brother, you’re so good, a truly blessed gift of a senior brother. Then I'll go prepare! Bye bye!”

"What's the matter Go go go, don't disturb me while I'm reading." Senior Brother Jun waved his hand and shooed me away.

He always finds me noisy. Me and my sister are just…oil and water, you know My sister is the kind of person who could spend a whole day embroidering without looking up! She loves everything from Suzhou embroidery to Yue embroidery to Shu embroidery. Dad even got her a teacher once.

My father originally wanted me to learn it too, but I ran away faster than anyone else. I'd rather study anatomical diagrams than learn this.

In a family with many older siblings, there's a strong sense of unity, and I feel their excessive protection everywhere. This is both good and bad.

I just open my mouth for everything, when can I stand on my own two feet

And it was the same at school. My sister and I were top students in elementary school, scoring full marks in all subjects. When it came to classical Chinese literature, our teachers didn't even dare to ask us questions because they knew we would answer perfectly. Seeing that we still had to wake up early every day to go to school, my father felt sorry for us. He used his connections to persuade and threaten the school into letting us skip two grades.

So the aftereffect is, I'm always the youngest student in the grade. My classmates are all in their twenties now!

For example, Tang Yufei. She's a real tomboyish type, perhaps because she grew up around long-distance truck drivers. Her personality is very outgoing.

I saw her wearing a full set of outdoor camouflage gear, hiking boots, sunglasses, and fingerless gloves. She stood beside a large truck, leaning her elbow on the shoulder of a driver, chatting happily with him.

"Hi, beautiful and kind young lady~~" she greeted me, "Once we've packed up the goods, we can set off!"

She said, reaching out to me, "I'll pay for the gas myself, but I still need a little spending money, right"

"You're still smoking" I stared in disbelief, pulling out a few hundred yuan from my bag.

Tang Yufei giggled without answering, pulled a red note from my hand, and tapped it with her finger: "This is for good luck before departure, I only take one from you."

"Many thanks, Heroine."

"Well now, you're being so generous with your kindness. We'll follow suit and accumulate some good karma too. Hope all our drivers can drive safely and smoothly from now on!"

I smiled, peace seemed to be the simplest and most basic desire in everyone's heart.

Liang Xiaogge was looking at the boxes of instant noodles, self-heating rations, tents, and first aid kits, overjoyed and kept asking when they could set off.

I looked at Tang Yufei, she smiled and said to wait for a auspicious time.

"Are you serious We still have to wait for a auspicious time" I couldn't help but laugh and cry.

She said earnestly, “Nowadays transportation is just like the old-fashioned escort system. When you’re out and about, you’re essentially relying on God to provide for you, hoping that things will remain peaceful in the world. So, having a bit of superstition can be helpful; you have to be sincere!”

While waiting for the auspicious time, I received at least ten calls from my fellow students asking if I wanted to go with them. I kept explaining that I was only going to deliver something and would be back soon, which eventually persuaded them all to stay behind.

When Tang Yufeng gave the signal, three large trucks began to line up and depart.

I warned the three drivers again and again not to touch any small insects, as the possibility of poisoning was very high (actually it was being poisoned by venomous snakes). I also said that with so many people dead, there were bound to be a lot of poisonous germs from plague and epidemic diseases. Don't underestimate even a minor wound.

Luckily, there were no unexpected incidents along the way. Brother Liang guided us to a mountain road. This road is at its end because the roadbed was washed out by a landslide ahead.

Tang Yufeng glared at Liang Xiaoge and shouted, "You led me here to this dead end. What do you want!"

"Huh This is the road right here..." Liang Xiaogē looked at me with an innocent expression.

I quickly pulled Tang Yufie aside and explained, "Their village is very remote, cars can't get in, and now the only road is like this. They are completely trapped inside by the earthquake. Let him go back and bring people to move things. Our kindness has also been delivered."

Tang Yufei nodded. "Then we'll wait here"

"Well, I told him to rush back to the village and bring people." I turned my head to instruct Liang Xiaoge, who quickly climbed halfway up the mountain and disappeared around the hillside.

Tang Yufen sat on the roadside playing cards with three drivers, she also had a cigarette in her mouth, like a big sister.

"Don't smoke, you're going to be a mother soon. What kind of cigarettes are you smoking" I advised her.

Three drivers burst out laughing: "Look! Everyone understands, only you, a tomboy, don't listen to advice! Put out the cigarette quickly!"

Tang Yuxi glared at me, pinching a cigarette while muttering, "How come you talk like an old woman even though you're so young!"

We waited until the sun set in the west, and the temperature around us started to drop. The drivers set up a makeshift tent on the roadside and began boiling water for instant noodles.

I'm getting a little impatient. I figured Brother Liang wouldn't get his own "door" wrong, but it's been so long now. Could it be that it's very far inside and difficult to walk

"Little beauty, come eat noodles! Just wait a little while, we've gotten used to leaving them outside overnight." A driver uncle greeted me.

Tang Yuxi held a bowl of instant noodles and walked over, saying: "You're more anxious than us Who is this Liang Xiaoguo to you Why are you so attentive"

"Oh... I was in danger in the disaster area before, he helped me, so—"

“Returning the favor with such a large sum Two hundred thousand is quite generous, just because someone helped you” Tang Yufei gave me a playful nudge with her elbow: “This young man is quite handsome, he doesn’t look like someone from the mountains at all.”

Sweat... Turns out I'm not the only one with this prejudice and misunderstanding, everyone else feels the same way!

I originally thought Mu Wanchen was just a village head, but now it seems his rank is much higher. Thinking about myself being both rude and kicking him before, yet he didn't get angry, makes me feel quite pleased.

I was holding a bowl of ramen on the sidewalk, just about to eat something, when I heard flapping sounds above my head.

Looking up, a flock of dark birds flew across the sky, flitting chaotically and frenziedly above us.

"Holy crap, isn't this an aftershock" The driver became alert.

In the midst of the chaos, he knocked over the pot of boiling water, which poured down the hillside. Immediately, a shriek of "Keee—" echoed through the air.

At the foot of the slope, several grayish-white "things" were hiding in the grass, waiting for an opportunity to approach us.ed open with some paper pasted onto the frame, preventing it from closing completely, leaving a sliver of space. They had also moved the folding screen from the study to block the window.This faint br...
