Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 - 19 Big Sister

"Aunt Tang, Tang Yue said her younger uncle Tang Mingli has something for her to do, so she won't be coming back. She also asked me to bring this back for her." Zou Xia handed over the comic book and the empty vegetable jar, laughing she added, "Oh right, Tang Yue also said that you can let me help bring her living expenses for this week."

"Okay, please wait for me when you go back to school the day after tomorrow." Zhang Hualian gratefully said, warmly inviting Zou Xia whether she would like to come in for a cup of tea.

Zou Xia smiled and declined.

Zhang Hualian felt puzzled in her heart; Xiao Yue and her younger uncle Tang Mingli aren't that familiar with each other, are they?

Could something have happened?

Zhang Hualian felt uneasy and somewhat worried. Her own daughter had just started at a new school, and she wanted to ask if she was getting accustomed to school life, but it had already been two weeks without her coming back.

"Mom, has sister come back yet?" Tang Jun came out of the house for the third time and seeing the things in Zhang Hualian's hands, he couldn't help but be fond of them, especially when he saw the comic book, he excitedly said, "Sister really understands me."

Tang Jun excitedly looked outside, but he did not see Tang Yue's figure.

"Your sister hasn't come back; she said her younger uncle had something for her, but I don't know what it could be." Zhang Hualian always felt uneasy, and when Tang Zhengde came back that night, she made a special point to talk to him about it.

Tang Zhengde reassured her, "Although Mingli is not that old, he has been working in the town for years and he's not the type to mess around. He must have something important to discuss with Xiao Yue."

"Besides, do you still doubt Mingli's character?" Tang Zhengde, smiling, was very trusting of his younger brother's reputation.

"I trust him." Zhang Hualian, reassured by his words, also felt more at ease.

Tang Mingli had given them much help; it must be something important, just like Tang Zhengde said.

At this moment.

In the Provincial City, it was the first time for both Tang Yue and Tang Mingli, and Tang Yue quietly reminded him to keep the money safe.

Tang Mingli smiled mysteriously and said, "Xiao Yue, just be at ease, it will be absolutely secure."

It was later that Tang Yue found out where Tang Mingli was hiding his money, and she felt a bit disdainful – that was money she didn't have the nerve to touch...

For dinner, Tang Mingli also didn't shortchange Tang Yue; he ordered two dishes, one meat and one vegetable, at a fast food restaurant, but the prices were very affordable.

Both Tang Yue and her uncle Tang Mingli ended up stuffing their bellies full, not leaving even the last drop of soup from their plates.

After eating and drinking their fill, they found a spot to rest at the bus station.

Tang Mingli, true to his past experience working around the town, had brought a cloth bag that Tang Yue didn't know about. It wasn't until later that she realized he had brought a thin cloth with him, something like a sheet.

Yet, on this early autumn night, just lightly covering themselves with it was much more comfortable than one would expect, and it didn't feel cold at all.

Tang Yue leaned in the corner, while Tang Mingli sat on the outside, covering them with the thin sheet. He also deliberately kept a little distance between them; although the two were uncle and niece, they were not closely related.
