After getting on the high-speed train, several teenagers looked out the window with curiosity and asked Gu Zian to tell them about the situation in their hometown.
Gu Zian put on the headphones and said lazily, "Go and see for yourself."
Jin Xin was enthusiastic and enthusiastically told Tang Ruizhe and others who had never been to the countryside about interesting things that happened in his grandparents' village.
He asked questions while talking.
"Do you know what will happen if a horse and a donkey marry?" Jin Xin looked at them and asked with a mysterious face.
"Mule." Chen Ruijie said calmly.
Jin Xin, "???"
Tang Ruizhe looked like an idiot and glared at Jin Xin, "Jin Xin, we have never been to the countryside, but we have gone to school, okay? Can you not treat us as fools? We are all in our second year of high school."
Tang Ruizhe's voice was loud, causing the passengers behind him to laugh.
Jin Xin was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and explained, "No, I'm not going to test you on this. This question is just to spark some ideas. I want to tell you that when I was a child, I saw a donkey giving birth to a donkey and mule at my grandmother's house. I was shocked at that time."
I’m stunned, there’s more...”
If you don't want to listen, please say something else.
Tang Ruizhe was a little hungry, so he licked his lips and interrupted, "Can you tell us what's delicious in my hometown?"
"My uncle's restaurant has..."
When Jin Xin was about to talk about the dishes in Gu Jinghui's restaurant, Tang Ruizhe continued to dislike it. Your uncle's restaurant is about to close down. What good food can there be? He learned cooking skills from my second aunt's family restaurant.
Gu Jingqi and his daughter were sitting in front of them. Gu Zihan just heard her father say on the road that she had done a lot of farm work when she was a child. She was very interested in this and had never heard her father mention it before.
It was rare for her to be interested in anything other than reading, so Gu Jingqi had no choice but to tell his daughter about the farm work they did when they were children.
When he knew how to work, the household quota had been assigned to each household, and everyone worked in their own way. There were many boys in their family. Whenever there was work in the fields, the three brothers would work together, while his sister stayed at home to cook and cook.
When the meal is ready, she will lift it into the ground in an earthen pot.
Gu Zihan listened with great interest.
As Gu Jingqi talked, he fell into long memories.
He always remembered the scene when his elder brother carried him up the mountain and was bullied by the children in the village when he was a child.
Those children always snatched their things. The elder brother did not dare to hit them. He would only protect him. When those people left, he got up from them and went home cursing.
Over the years, every time Gu Jingqi was so angry with his elder brother that he didn't even want to acknowledge him, those memories would suddenly pop up in his mind.
He remembered the way his elder brother was beaten to a pulp and carried away from him. He seemed to have lost all his energy.
When I was young, I would still dislike him. Now as I grow older, I feel more and more the value of family affection, and I become more and more tolerant of my elder brother.
Gu Jingqi thought of his parents who were always busy in the fields in those years, and suddenly felt sad.
At this time, he actually felt a little nostalgic.
I don’t know, will the parents I see this time when I go back look a little older than last year?
When he came home last year, he saw that his parents' hair was all white.
As the youngest child who has been loved by everyone since childhood, seeing my parents getting older makes me feel really uncomfortable and I really don’t want to face the reality that they are old.
He also wanted to take his parents to live in his city for a while and spend time with them, but his parents firmly disagreed.
The older rural people get, the more inseparable they are from the land that gave birth to them.
Gu Zihan saw her father suddenly looking out the car window in a trance while he was talking. She asked,
"Dad, what are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about your grandparents." Gu Jingqi turned around and looked at her and said.
Gu Zihan said, "I miss my grandparents too."
"Good boy, we will see them soon."
Looking at the scenery outside the car window, Gu Jingqi thought of the scene when he left home twenty years ago.
He glanced at Gu Zian, who was sitting in the back listening to the song.
Fast forward 20 years, and he was about the same age as Gu Zian at that time.
With longing and longing for the big city, he nervously boarded the green train to join his second brother.
It was really that step he took 20 years ago that changed his entire life trajectory.
If he had not transferred to Bincheng that year, I am afraid that he would not have been able to go to college. After graduating from high school, he would have definitely found a job in the local area. The most respectable job would have been as a private teacher in the village. There are many students who graduated from high school and were unable to go to college.
their destination.
Looking at the scenery outside the car window, Gu Jingqi couldn't help humming a song.
The closer I get to my hometown, the sadder I feel
I never dare to think about going home
The scenery of my hometown, my parents in my hometown
I love you as always
Gu Jingqi actually sang. Jin Xin, who was spitting in the middle of his speech, immediately stopped his speech and came over, "Wow, uncle, you sing so beautifully."
"Yes, does the great doctor also listen to these songs?"
Several teenagers put their arms on the backrest and teased Gu Jingqi.
Gu Jingqi just hummed a few words softly, and was surrounded by several teenagers. He hurriedly chased people away, please sit down quickly and don't disturb others.
Jin Xin and the others glanced at the other passengers and sat back out of fear of disturbing others.
Two hours came quickly. Gu Jingqi looked at the time displayed on the screen of the carriage and saw that there was still one stop left.
At this moment, a radio sound suddenly came from the carriage, "Urgent notice, are there any passengers on our train who are doctors? Please go to carriage No. 1 for emergency assistance. Please ask your doctor friends to go to carriage No. 1 quickly..."
When Gu Jingqi heard the announcement, his expression tightened and he stood up from his seat.
He reached out and took off the headphones from Gu Zi'an's ears, and said to him, "Zi'an, take care of your sister. I'll be right back."
"Oh." Gu Zi'an was stunned, but he got up and sat next to Gu Zihan, and then heard the emergency call on the radio.
They were traveling in a first-class seat, which was very close to a good carriage. Gu Zi'an saw that Gu Jingqi had already run into No. 1.
Tang Ruizhe and Gao Zichen were listening to Jin Xin telling stories, but because of this broadcast, everyone became serious.
Gu Zian said, "My third uncle probably went to save someone."
"Zi Han, it's okay, don't be afraid, dad will be back soon." Gu Zian sat next to her sister and comforted her softly.
"Cousin, I'm not afraid. My father often encounters this kind of situation. He always answers the phone at home and runs away in a hurry, leaving me alone. I'm used to it."
Gu Zihan was like a little adult. After finishing speaking, he started reading his own book.
Gu Zian listened to her sister's words and felt very uncomfortable when she saw that her young face was not in line with the maturity of her age.
