"I'm sorry, Mengmeng. The temporary work assignments in the agency have changed and the opportunity to go to Hunan has been given to another female reporter who is in poor physical condition. Considering that you have better business ability than her and have excellent physical fitness, I changed it privately.
Don’t you mind if we have already arranged the itinerary?” The editor-in-chief was still up at midnight, and he explained to her on his mobile phone amidst the hustle and bustle of Beijing Station.
Gu Mengmeng smiled bitterly and thought, if you had told me earlier, I would have really considered whether to go.
But now, does she still have a chance to refuse?
"It's okay, editor-in-chief, I will complete the task."
"Okay! And, Mengmeng, please turn on your phone. Don't turn it off all the time. Just now Xiaokang asked me for help. And Enya, that damn girl was calling from a landline. She asked me if I sent you.
Went out for an interview?"
Conway? Call her?
Gu Mengmeng said nothing and hung up the phone.
She first called Enya and told her about going to Tibet. As expected, the girl was so angry that she stopped her and said she was not allowed to go, "If you don't think about yourself, you should think about my godson. I can't even breathe here."
It's smooth. I went to the Tibetan Plateau and I couldn't hold it to death! Ah! Bah, bah, bah! I beat myself up! I'm so suffocated. Mengmeng, be obedient and come home. I'll talk to the editor-in-chief. If it doesn't work, I still dare to find him.
President Theory.”
"Okay, don't show off. I know my body and can handle it."
"No! It's definitely not possible. My mother also said no, don't go! I'll drive to the station to pick you up, don't be willful!" Enya was so anxious that she almost cried.
Gu Mengmeng looked at the dark rain curtain outside the platform and said sadly: "Don't come, Enya! I just want to relax, but I can't calm down in my heart."
Enya was silent. Mother Xu was there to help her daughter with her coat and car keys. When she saw her daughter suddenly standing motionless on the porch with a sad face, she asked strangely: "Why don't you go after Mengmeng?"
Enya hung up the phone, flattened her mouth, and lay in Xu's mother's arms aggrievedly, saying: "Mom, I feel sorry for Mengmeng, she is so pitiful."
Mother Xu stroked her daughter's head and said comfortingly: "It's as easy as you think for a married couple to live together. Today's society is no better than it was when your father and I were together. So, you have to take a longer-term view of things."
."
Enya suddenly raised her head, looked directly at her mother and said, "He Yang is a good man! Don't try to stop me."
Xu's mother looked at the little lion in her home with anger and helplessness, hit her on the forehead, and said angrily: "Damn girl, she's not even married yet, her elbows are turned outward!"
Enya stuck out her tongue and went back to the house to wait for He Yang to go online. She had to talk to He Yang about what was boring in her heart. She wanted to ask He Yang if good girls didn't have good results...
The newspaper agency was pretty good and booked her a hard sleeper ticket in the lower berth.
The distance of 4064 kilometers was supported by a narrow hard bed.
As people were preparing to enter the station, she gave up her seat to a Tibetan woman carrying a child. She turned back and stood at the end of the line again. Her behavior attracted admiration from the people around her, and they all asked her to
Stand in front of yourself.
Gu Mengmeng waved her hand and said: "No, no! I won't be unable to get on the bus at the departure station. Thank you everyone."
After a while, before the platform door opened, the child of the Tibetan woman in front ran over with a milky white thing held in a candy wrapper. She blinked her big eyes and put the thing into Gu Mengmeng's hand.
Too proficient in Chinese said: "Auntie PLA, Amala wants me to give you something to eat."
Gu Mengmeng picked up the young Tibetan girl from the ground, kissed her milky-smelling face, and said in Tibetan: "Suddenly."
The girl smiled happily. She peeled off the candy wrapper and put the crispy candy only found in Tibet into Gu Mengmeng's mouth.
The sweet taste revealed an indescribable warmth, gradually infiltrating her hurting heart.
"It's so sudden." She murmured, and took out an award-winning picture from her bag that she had taken in Tibet a long time ago and gave it to the Tibetan girl.
The girl ran back to her mother happily.
And she also stood up, preparing to follow the flow of people who had opened the gate in front of her and enter the station.
At this moment, her body seemed to be struck by electricity, and she stood there instantly.
In the front right of her sight, stood a handsome man wearing a major's military uniform. He was sitting on a long row of chairs in the waiting hall, looking at her closely with eyes that were moved, happy and guilty. Gu Mengmeng's chest moved, and her eyes were
He met her at one point. She saw his thin lips move, as if he was calling her name, or as if he was venting the emotions in his chest.
The passenger behind her pushed her and asked, "Are you leaving?"
She was startled, then followed the crowd for two steps and stopped.
"Mengmeng, wait, I'll see you off!" Kangwei suddenly shouted to her. He wanted to go around the long row of chairs to catch up with her, but Gu Mengmeng didn't give him the chance to catch up with her in the end.
It’s a pit stop, it’s finally a pit stop.
She never looked back at the figure behind her.
Conway was blocked at the entrance to the station, holding his ID with his fingers, but did not take it out as a pass. With deep pain in his eyes, he stared at Gu Mengmeng's retreating back, biting
He tightened his lower lip.
Did the girl who belonged to him leave his life just like that?
In the hot and humid carriage, Gu Mengmeng found her bunk. Her neighbor happened to be the mother and daughter she had just met in the waiting hall. She was very happy, and so was the family.
The Tibetan woman told Mengmeng that she was forced to come to Beijing by her husband, who was a soldier. She said that she had never seen Tiananmen or Chairman Mao, so the couple saved money for more than half a year to have their mother and daughter.
Happy trip.
"What a coincidence. I am also a reporter who went to the Tibetan garrison to cover. Where is your husband joining the army? Maybe we will meet again by fate."
Her dark but happy face showed a trace of pride and said: "He is guarding the Gangba border and is the company commander."
Gu Mengmeng was stunned. She had been to Gangba before, at an altitude of 5,400 meters. When she went there, she was still a girl with good physical fitness in all aspects, but she couldn't bear the altitude sickness there. The mother and daughter opposite,
Do you live there?
"Well, Dolma and I will live with the army. When Dolma can go to school in a few years, I will move to the town."
"The conditions are very bad there, aren't you?"
She smiled honestly, pointed to the mascot with a bullet casing on Little Dolma's neck, and said, "As long as we are with him, my daughter and I can endure any hardships!"
Gu Mengmeng looked at those dark faces in silence, feeling indescribably moved in her heart.
