I am reborn and just want to concentrate on my studies - Chapter 187 Arrival【4.2K】

Yi San didn’t drive very fast. The car was driving on the highway, leaning on the leftmost lane, and cars on the right were passing by at high speed. There were not so many cars in this era, so the highway seemed empty. Yi Yang said, if you drive slowly, it is best to put the car on the middle lane. The leftmost lane has the highest speed limit. In foreign countries, the left lane is specially used for overtaking. Yi San didn’t say anything after hearing this. He just silently turned on the right turn signal, looked in the rearview mirror, and then slowly changed lanes.

As he got closer and closer to Hanning City, Yi Yang felt that the second uncle’s face was getting more and more sad… The second uncle certainly didn’t show it deliberately, but with his ability to observe words and colors, he couldn’t ignore it. I thought about several possibilities, but they all felt unreliable, so I finally couldn’t help but ask: “What is the second uncle thinking?”

Yi San was stunned, “What’s wrong?”

“I feel like my second uncle is not very happy…”

“Unhappy? No…no! How could it be? You are going to the best school in the province, how could you be unhappy? And Yi Chuan… this child has not been to Hanning City yet, bring him here to see him Seeing the world is a joyful thing…”

Yi Yang frowned, “Really…”

Along the way, Yi San didn’t talk much, and Yi Yang was happy to have some leisure time. He just helped look at the road and occasionally said a few words to keep his second uncle from getting stuck. In such an atmosphere, Yi Chuan, who was behind him, was still very excited about traveling far away at first. He watched the unchanging scenery for a while on the highway, and the noise gradually became smaller. It didn’t take long for him to fall asleep, and he slept like this all the way.

Yi San sighed silently. There is indeed something on his mind…but it’s not as complicated as some of the possibilities Yi Yang has thought about.

The first thing that upsets me is embarrassing to talk about. He didn’t drive for long, and the number of times he drove to Hanning was zero. This leads to a very formal and very serious question…

Do not know the way.

This is an era without mobile phone navigation.

Not only do I not know the roads, but in such a big city, there are complicated traffic rules. You can’t turn at this intersection, you can only go right at that intersection, the lines on the ground, the lights in front of you, the mess is very confusing.

I didn’t tell Yi Yang about this. On the one hand, I was embarrassed. On the other hand, I felt that Yi Yang had never traveled far. The last time I heard him say that someone picked him up at the station, how could he, a child, understand this? Where’s the stuff? It’s not bad if you don’t get lost in the city. After all, he is an adult and an elder. At this time, Yi San is worried about himself, but he also feels that he must take it upon himself to solve the problem…

I asked some people from the same hometown who have been to Hanning City, and they said a solution.

“When you enter the toll station, there will be some people at the intersection holding a sign with the word “guide the way” on it. These people are usually locals from Hanning City, and their job is to guide people from other places. , you pull them into the car, and they show you the way… It’s just the price, it depends on the distance. After all, you have to go back when you reach your destination, but generally speaking it’s quite expensive. I went to wholesale last time. To the market, I spent one hundred yuan on the toll fee…”

Right now, this seems to be the only solution. Yi San felt that the hundreds of yuan toll was indeed too expensive, but at this time, there was no other option but to give money and let him do it. Therefore, it is inevitable to have the feeling of “if I am literate… I can do whatever I want”. This is naturally something worth worrying about. I spent half the time thinking about this along the way.

The other half is troubled by another thing.

It’s about Yi Yang.

There is no bloody plot, I just simply thought about it. My nephew is studying in a big city. Send him to school. His classmates will be the most powerful kids in this city or even this province, and there are naturally many of them… money man.

No matter how bad things are, the family conditions are very good.

Then I couldn’t help but think of a scene. In front of the school, my nephew’s classmates were driving a very expensive car to send them to school. The parents were all in suits and ties. But when it came to my place, a broken micro truck…

It was okay for him to be embarrassed, but thinking about Yi Yang in that kind of environment made his heart feel like needles pricking him. This sentiment is not obvious in the county town, because most of the students in the county town come from rural areas, and everyone is similar. Occasionally, there are a few students with better conditions, but they are the ones who stand out… although it is an enviable kind of conspicuousness.

But his nephew is very likely to get to know his classmates in another form of conspicuousness on the first day of school.

That possible scenario made Yi San sad, but there was nothing he could do about it. At times like this, he misses his eldest brother so much. If…if his eldest brother is still around, he can probably make Yi Yang raise his head proudly in front of his classmates in big cities, right?

The last time he said he would send Yi Yang to take the exam, the emotion was not strong. But this time, because the study environment for the next three years has been determined, he will keep imagining that scene.

These two things made Yi San worried since the day before departure, and he was still entangled in it. The closer he got to Hanning City, the stronger his emotions became, so much so that he felt unnatural and uncontrollable on his face.

Yi Yang hasn’t figured out his second uncle’s psychological activities yet. Although he can guess other people’s thoughts many times, at this time, there is indeed a lack of opportunity for him to empathize with his second uncle’s feelings.

When they were about to arrive at the toll station in Hanning City, Yi Chuan snored behind him. Yi Yang listened and unknowingly took a nap. He closed his eyes and was half asleep. He didn’t realize how much time had passed. Chang, then woke up amid a burst of noise.

“200! This one deserves at least 200!”

“150!”

“Brother, 150 is really not enough…”

Yi Yang opened his eyes, looked at the surrounding scenery, and found that he had passed the toll station and the car was parked at the entrance to the city. Listening to the conversation, I thought the second uncle was buying something, but when I sat up and took a look, I was a little speechless…

The second uncle was bargaining with a woman, who was holding a “Lead the Way” sign in her hand.

Seeing that the other party was very resolute and said that the distance was too far and that he needed to take a taxi back, Yi San felt a little hesitant. After all, he couldn’t guess the cost and it was really difficult to bargain, so he was hesitant to bite the bullet and give it to this person. When it was 200 yuan, Yi Yang directly rolled up the window.

“What is this for?”

“There’s no need, Uncle Second. I know the road. Just let me guide you. There’s no need to spend this wasted money. And to be honest, 200 yuan will lead this road… Haha!” Yi Yang sneered: “This money is so good Earn it?”

From the toll station to the High School Affiliated to Normal University, most of the distance is on the main road. The transportation is convenient and it doesn’t take much time. The other party obviously just saw that the second uncle’s car had an out-of-town license plate. It was his first time here and he didn’t understand anything. , want to make a fortune.

At this time, the woman panicked and knocked on the car window again. The voice came through the car window: “150 is 150…”

Yi Yang ignored it and said to Yi San: “Second uncle, just drive directly. I know the road. Look, we are on the Ningguan line now. Drive directly along Dongxing Avenue and go straight to the city. Okay. You can also go directly to the Second Ring Road by taking the Third Ring Road. The Third Ring Road is a fast track and there are no traffic jams. If you take the Second Ring Road, the distance is shorter and you can also see the scenery of the city, but there may be traffic jams…”

Yi San was stunned for a moment, and looked hesitantly at the woman leading the way who was still chirping outside the car window. Then he looked at Yi Yang and asked, “Is it reliable…”

“Reliable.”

“How…how do you know so many things?”

“Uh… read a book. There are maps in books and newspapers.”

“Oh…that’s it.” Yi San couldn’t help sighing again and nodded: “Okay, second uncle will listen to you.”

This time, he ignored the woman completely. Yi San lit up and waved to the woman outside the car window, motioning for her to get out of the way. The woman was stunned and subconsciously took a step back, and then the car started in front of her eyes.

The woman shouted from behind: “100! 100! Do it or not!”

The car drove away without any intention of stopping.

…

For people in small counties, traffic rules are indeed not that complicated. They just need to know the traffic lights. Even before the way to get a driver’s license was not standardized a few years ago, you could get it by paying money… Over time, many rural people who came to big cities for the first time often made jokes when driving.

“Look at Uncle Er, the extra section of road in front is marked with a dotted line, which is called the left-turn waiting area. The light is green. Vehicles going straight can drive through, but we want to turn left. At this time, turn on the left turn signal and drive Go over and wait…”

Yi San was completely numb, and he could only attribute Yi Yang’s calmness to the benefits of studying… Before that, he was still a little worried about whether Yi Yang could adapt to life in a big city. Some time ago, he knew that Yi Yang understood these traffic rules, but at this time in Hanning City, he could still analyze them logically and confidently, which was enough to put his mind at ease.

Because Yi Yang wanted to give his second uncle a way out and help him keep an eye on the traffic signs, street signs, and various traffic lights on the ground, he had no time to pay attention to Yi Chuan.

Behind him, Yi Chuan came to Hanning City for the first time. He leaned on the car window and looked out curiously. Everything here made him feel novel, and at the same time, his eyes were a little… timid.

There are several students in the class who have been to Hanning City. Those classmates often said that Hanning has such and such good things, such as KFC, McDonald’s, amusement parks, aquariums, etc. Every time they talked about those experiences, everyone gathered together and envied him. Also envious.

Finally, he thought that when he went back in the future, he would be able to brag with those classmates.

He is also someone who has been to the provincial capital.

This expectation satisfied him.

So along the way I kept asking my cousin and father what those unseen things were.

“Is this the overpass written on TV and in books…”

“Those houses are so tall.”

“I know that car, BMW! There are so many car logos…”

“Cousin, why are there so many foot bath shops in Hanning City? Do people in Hanning like to wash their feet?”

“What does spa mean?”

“…”

With Yi Yang’s guidance, Yi San successfully drove the car to the vicinity of the High School Affiliated to Normal University. Registration is open for two days tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Yi Yang planned to find a hotel close to the High School Affiliated to Normal University to stay, and chose two. When Yi Sanyi heard that the room rate was more than 150 yuan, he immediately rejected it. Yi Yang even criticized him when he said he came to pay.

There was no other way, so the three finally found a hotel that only cost 60 yuan a night to stay.

Naturally, the environment of the hotel is not very good. There are two beds and a TV in the room, but it still looks quite clean. However, all the facilities that can be seen look like products from more than ten years ago, full of a sense of age.

But for Yi San, this place was already good. After entering the room, he said proudly: “Look, it’s quite good. It’s much better than home.” Of course, this is his own home.

Yi Chuan jumped onto the bed excitedly, then turned on the TV, and found that the TV here actually had hundreds of channels, and even a cartoon channel dedicated to playing cartoons. He immediately cheered excitedly, lying on his bed teeth and watching immersedly. got up.

Yi Yang discussed the next arrangements with Yi San. It’s just past noon. Let’s take Xiaochuan for a walk around the area in the afternoon. It won’t take much time to sign up tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon, we can take Xiaochuan to places like the zoo and aquarium. He has never seen it before. The day after tomorrow…it depends on the situation. If nothing happens, I will go back.

Of course, there is another link that cannot be ignored. On the day of departure, Yi Yang had to sit in the car and help his second uncle navigate to the toll station. Otherwise, it would be quite difficult for him to drive out of the city. When you get to the toll station, just take a taxi back.

So decided.

After a long drive in the morning, Yi Yang asked to take a rest. The second uncle agreed and lay down on the bed. He admired how soft the bed was and fell asleep not long after. Yi Yang smiled and lay down on Yi Chuan’s bed, and soon fell asleep. Yi Chuan was the only one left in the room, staring at the TV. The sound on the TV and the noisy traffic outside seemed to be a lullaby full of fireworks.

…

At around three o’clock in the afternoon, Yi Yang and his second uncle got up, packed up, and took Yi Chuan out for a walk. Naturally, I didn’t go far, I just walked around the nearby streets. There were some clothes shops open. At Yi Yang’s suggestion, I went in and had a look. However, when my second uncle saw the price on the tag, he said he didn’t like it. Yi Yang knew that his second uncle would not buy the clothes here, especially now that he was willing to be constrained by his status as an elder and was absolutely unwilling to let himself spend money, so he did not force it.

After all, I am still just a freshman in high school. It is a psychological burden for my second uncle to accept some expensive gifts from me.

I just went to some small shops and saw some toys that were not available in the county. Yiyang bought a Transformers for Xiaochuan despite the objections of his second uncle. It was not particularly expensive, less than ten yuan. Yi San said a few words and accepted it, asking Yi Chuan to thank his cousin.

In the evening, the three of them continued walking around and looked at the night view of the city. The three of them walked to the edge of the Hanning River and watched the city’s neon lights being ground into the sparkling river. The breeze blew by, and Yi Chuan looked at the end of the river and suddenly said…

“Brother, I will also study here in the future!”

Yi Yang smiled and touched Yi Chuan’s head.
