The driver took the money and had a bright smile on his face. He asked the boss where are you going? Are you looking for a hotel to stay or a place to eat.
He shook his head and said that he would just send us to the edge of the Shapotou National Highway.
The driver nodded, pointed to the back of the car and said, "There are so many of you, and you are carrying so many things. There can only be one person in the car, and the rest should sit in the back."
Only when we got into the truck did we realize that it was a feed truck, and the truck was full of wheat bran and bran. The three of us were sitting in the car at the head, and a big bag was sitting on the bottom of the car.
After walking for a few minutes, the minivan stopped and there was a traffic light in front of it.
"Look at how depressed you two are with your heads down. You can't be happy. Isn't it okay? Let me sing a song for you two?" Bean Sprouts started to howl as soon as he finished speaking: "Sister, you sit on the bow, brother.
I'll walk on the shore, sister, you sit on the bow of the boat, brother, I'll walk on the shore, hey, sit on the bow of the boat..."
My depressed mood was relieved a lot by Dou Sprout's singing.
There was a car behind the truck we were sitting in. The driver was a young man. The window was open. He held a cigarette in one hand and stuck his head out. He was curiously watching Bean Sprouts singing loudly.
Xiaoxuan whispered, "Stop singing. It's too embarrassing. People are looking at us."
Douyazai patted the big bag he was sitting on, laughed and stopped talking.
At that time, Yinchuan was still a small town, without the feasting and feasting of a big city, and there was no spectacular night scene after dark, only dim street lights and a few lights in residential buildings.
After Douyazai finished singing about his sister sitting on the front of the boat, he suddenly stood up. He held the front of the car with both hands and looked quietly into the distance.
The truck was going fast and the wind was quite strong. I stood up and said to Yazai, what are you looking at? It’s so windy.
Douyazai said without looking back, "It's so beautiful."
"What's there to see? What are you looking at?" I asked.
Xiaoxuan also stood up and held the front of the car. She said, "Yes, it's too dark. You can't see anything. If we were in Hong Kong, it would be bright at this time. There would be neon lights everywhere."
"What's the matter, are you homesick?" I asked with a smile.
Xiaoxuan lowered her head and stopped talking.
I thought of my home and my grandma. I had sent money home several times before, and my uncle's money had been paid off long ago. I am now richer than my uncle.
I told my grandma that everything was fine. I told my boss that I would do engineering and decoration work with my boss, and that I would go back to Mohe to open a decoration company in a few years.
Grandma smiled and said everything was fine at home and told me not to worry. He couldn't spend the money alone. She saved all the money I sent for me and said she would save it for me to use for my wedding.
I was in a trance thinking about it, and my eyes were blown away by the wind.
I asked Douyazai who else was at home, and Douyazai said that his parents had divorced a long time ago. He had followed his father since he was a child, and when he grew up and dropped out of school, he went boating with his uncle.
I said, do you know where your mother is now?
Douyazai shook his head and said: "I don't know. My uncle said that my mother remarried many years ago and gave birth to a child. The child will study well and will study for a Ph.D. in the future, unlike me, who only went to
Fifth grade."
"We've arrived," the driver said after parking the car: "The turning ahead is the Shapotou National Highway. It's difficult to back up there, so just get off here."
After getting out of the car with large and small bags, the driver turned the car around and kicked the accelerator and drove away.
We had no place to go, and we didn't dare to stay in a hotel in the city. Finally, we crossed the national highway and stopped on a piece of sand.
The night is already dark.
I didn’t even set up camp, I was very tired after running around with my bag all day.
We just lay on the ground and fell asleep with our backpacks on our pillows.
