After lunch, Yun Qiao and Xi Lanting returned to their box and had a good sleep.
When I got up, it was raining outside.
The special train was still moving forward at a steady speed, and thin raindrops floated on the windows, quickly forming a rain curtain.
"...The weather should be clearer in the north. We haven't arrived in Shandong yet, right?"
Yun Qiao asked.
Xi Lanting: "We can get through it tonight."
The train is not as free and interesting as the cruise ship, and the carriages are not too big, which makes it a bit boring.
Wen Luyao couldn't stand the loneliness the most, and kept wanting to call Yun Qiao and Xi Lanting, but Xi Rong stood at the door, more conscientious than the adjutant, in order to prevent Wen Luyao from visiting.
It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that Wen Luyao had the chance to sneak over.
"... Let's go have a meal. After dinner, we'll play cards in the restaurant for a while."
I heard Lu Yao said.
Xi Lanting: "Besides eating, you don't have anything serious to do?
Can’t you read a book?”
"I don't like reading."
Hearing that Lu Yao answered matter-of-factly, without any shame, "Do you think everyone is like Yun Qiao, asking for hardship and loving studying?"
Xi Lanting: "Nothing promising, no progress."
"Zhengdong likes me like this."
I heard Lu Yao said.
They bickered and went to the dining car.
Yun Qiao slept all afternoon and was not hungry now. She had no appetite after seeing dinner.
The same goes for Wen Luyao and Xi Lanting.
At dusk, the sunset was brilliant, and the rain that had been falling all the way finally cleared up.
The sky is high and far away, blue and clear, and dyed through by the rays of the sun.
"Tell the conductor to stop for an hour. Anyone who wants to rest can get off and do some activities."
Xi Lanting said to Xi Rong.
Hearing that Luyao was the first one to be very happy.
Soon, the train stopped nearby.
There are fields all around, stretching as far as the eye can see.
The crops in this season are dense, especially wheat, with each clump reaching half a person's height and stretching out.
The wind blows and the wheat waves roll.
The wheat in some wheat fields has matured, while others have not yet. It is a mixture of green and yellow, with a rich color.
"……What a nice view."
Yun Qiao sighed.
My eyes cannot record this scene forever. The fields in the setting sun are truly beautiful.
At the end of the wheat waves, there is a small village. A few wisps of smoke rise from the kitchen, mixed with the aroma of the food, and dispersed in the orange sunset.
“What a peaceful life.”
Yun Qiao suddenly said, "It's really rare."
In the current world, such a normal and quiet life is very rare and not the norm.
There is no fighting in this area, but if you go further, you will see smoke of gunfire near Qingdao.
"yes."
Xi Lanting held her hand.
Wen Luyao and Jiang Yanyu got off the car, especially Jiang Yanyu, who also looked at the scenery in the distance in a daze.
"Why are you in a daze?"
Wen Luyao asked her.
Jiang Yanyu: "I seem to... suddenly understand my brother's ambition.
It turns out that the calm under the turmoil is so beautiful.
Who doesn’t want to keep this peace forever?
But the family and country have been overthrown, and if we want to have a peaceful life, we need to shed blood and make sacrifices.
I don’t know if there will be a good day of peace in the future.”
"There will be."
Wen Luyao put her arm around her shoulders.
"I don't know if we can see it."
Jiang Yanyu said again.
Wen Luyao: "Definitely.
What's going on with each of you, have you all become progressive young people?"
Jiang Yanyu smiled.
When she looked back, there was someone standing at the door of the train smoking, but his eyes kept falling on her.
When he saw her, the man smiled brightly, and his smile was brighter than the sunset, beautiful and wild.
It's Cheng Hui.
Jiang Yanyu looked away as if he was feeling uncomfortable.
A little weird.
Wen Luyao also saw it and smiled and said to Jiang Yanyu, "That kid likes you."
Jiang Yanyu: "Stop being ridiculous. He is very young and doesn't understand anything."
"Looks pretty big."
Hearing Lu Yao said, she emphasized the pronunciation of the word, "It's quite... big."
Jiang Yanyu had been in love with Sheng Yun, and when they were deeply affectionate, Sheng Yun also let her touch him.
Hearing what Lu Yao said, Jiang Yanyu understood and his face turned red: "Bah, what nonsense are you talking about?"
