Chapter 508 The first person to share the good news
Grandma and grandpa insisted on keeping Xie Ying at home for the New Year before he was willing to let her come back to the city.
Grandpa proposed various plans for her to go home - for example, to find a car to go on a business trip to the city and take Xie Ying home; for example, to arrange a soft bedroom on the train to let her sit home comfortably...
...But Xie Ying refused all of them. She insisted that she was just an ordinary student and just sat back and lie down.
Grandpa frowned: "The train is shaking badly, your pelvis has been injured again, it's very uncomfortable to bump for such a long time."
"It's okay, grandpa, Xie Chong is going to sit in a hard bedroom for fifteen hours. I'm only a few hours away. Grandpa, I'm an ordinary student, so I don't have to be too extravagant. Grandpa, I'm still a warrior now, I'm
You must have the spirit of hard work and perseverance."
Xie Ying blinked big eyes and blinked again, and grandpa felt distressed and relieved: "Xiaoying, it's already great that you have the awareness of enduring hardships. With this condition, it's fine if you endure hardships in school, but outside the school
…”
"Grandpa, don't force me anymore. I've booked a ticket. If the tickets are not easy to buy this year, don't mess around."
Grandma and grandpa sighed that Xie Ying was a sensible child, and Xie Ying was so guilty that they praised her. They definitely didn't know that her plan was jingling.
She wanted to go home with Wang Haochuan. For Wang Haochuan, it was already a luxury to sleep hard. If he lie down softly, he would not even dare to think about it.
It was my uncle who sent Xie Ying to the station. My uncle wanted to buy a platform ticket and took Xie Ying onto the train himself. But Xie Ying was like a heroic female soldier. She picked up her suitcase and ran into the station, waving her hand to let her uncle leave quickly.
.
My uncle was very puzzled - there was still a long time before driving, so what was my niece in a hurry?
Wang Haochuan waited for Xie Ying at the station for an afternoon. He sent several text messages to Xie Ying, asking her to take her time and not to worry. But Xie Ying rushed over in a hurry, running very fast, who would have thought that she was in school.
It's actually a household with physical strength.
He called Wang Haochuan but he didn't answer. Xie Ying was thinking, was he secretly preparing for the surprise of meeting?
She was thinking too much. Wang Haochuan, a straight man in science and engineering who had been immersed in the military academy for two and a half years, would not have any romantic thoughts. When Xie Ying saw him, he was helping several people who looked like migrant workers to buy tickets.
And I carefully reminded them to book tickets in advance when returning home. The number of passengers during the Spring Festival is large and they may not be able to buy them ten days in advance.
Everyone kept saying "Thank you", and Wang Haochuan waved his hand gently, telling them not to remember it in his heart. An older migrant worker staggered because of heavy luggage. Wang Haochuan stretched out a helping hand without hesitation and helped him carry it.
After a while, he stayed there until he saw the girl he was thinking about day and night.
Xie Ying grinned unconsciously, and Wang Haochuan really engraved the words "Serve the People" in his heart.
"When did you come?" Wang Haochuan ran to Xie Ying in three steps, patted the dust on his body, and his smile was even brighter than Xie Ying: "Have you had lunch? Is there any traffic jam on the road?"
"It's time now, how could I not have lunch? But you, after waiting here for so long, have you bought something to eat?"
"Uh..." Wang Haochuan smiled bitterly: "I read the book for a while and forgot to eat."
Wang Haochuan took out a plastic bag from his backpack, which contained bread and ham sausages. "Xiaoying, I'm worried that you didn't eat, so I bought some food in advance. But I forgot..."
Wang Haochuan's backpack straps are so good that he can't stand to pill. He has been wearing his coat for two years. He himself is reluctant to buy food at the train station, but he is willing to spend money to prepare a bunch of food for Xie Ying.
Xie Ying also untied her backpack and took out a bunch of lunch boxes from it: "This is the supper my grandma packed for me, including braised pork ribs, chestnut beef, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a bowl of kelp meatball soup. It was not until I got on the bus.
It's still early, you can eat first - don't be polite to me. If I hadn't given it to you, I wouldn't have brought such a heavy lunch box into the car."
"Who said I'm going to be polite to you?" Wang Haochuan took it without hesitation: "To be honest, since I rushed to the road yesterday, I have never eaten anything hot. Thank you for saving my life, for having this stuttering
, I won't starve to death."
Xie Ying covered her mouth and laughed: "If the future officer is starved to death, it will be a big loss!"
It was not until night fell that they boarded the train home. They had to sway in the car all night and could not get home the next morning. Wang Haochuan was in a happy mood when he was with Xie Ying, but his eyebrows were always there.
It was shrouded in a layer of vague sorrow, like a layer of undispersed mist.
"Haochuan, Uncle Wang will wait for you at home." Xie Ying saw through his thoughts: "Uncle Wang has changed a lot. He generously gave Sister Jingyi a dowry and bought a set without hesitation.
House… During the summer vacation, my second uncle and second aunt said that Uncle Wang is more like a qualified father than before.”
"I hope..." Wang Haochuan felt a little depressed: "In this life, there is no hope for maternal love. If I can get some care from my father, I will feel better."
Wang Haochuan is omnipotent, but he is also heartbreaking.
Xie Ying's backpack was filled with snacks, and she wanted to share it with Wang Haochuan. She ate snacks along the way and talked and laughed, so Wang Haochuan would not be so sad. Wang Haochuan really wanted to tell her that having her around is just one.
A cure thing.
The road was bumpy, but they all felt that the time was too short. After getting off the car, Wang Haochuan took the initiative to call Xie Ying a taxi and asked her to go back first. Xie Ying asked in surprise: "What about you? Why don't you?
Go back together?"
"Return to our hometown with conservative customs, let's... keep a distance appropriately." Wang Haochuan put her suitcase into the trunk and said it concisely and clearly: "We are not in the same city, but we are taking the same car home. If it is
If you are seen, you will have endless chewy tongue.”
From the train station to Rulin Street, it is the starting price. This amount of money is nothing to Xie Ying, but Wang Haochuan still stuffed ten dollars to the driver. The driver smiled and said, "Little girl, your boyfriend is good enough.
!”
Xie Ying didn't want him to spend money, but she felt happy. Moreover, to outsiders, Wang Haochuan was like her boyfriend.
Wang Haochuan didn't even want to take the bus and walked back home. He often participated in armed cross-country and did not feel tired. Although it was cold and cold, when he walked to the door, he was so hot that his head was sweating.
Wang Haochuan was very nervous. He was afraid that what he was waiting for him would be another lonely and lonely home without any breath of fireworks.
He hesitated for a long time and did not dare to knock on the door, but his father opened the door from inside.
Fortunately, there are still people at home, and Wang Haochuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"dad……"
"Yes." Wang Yuchun was wearing a cotton coat and was about to go out: "There is rice porridge, cooked eggs, and pickles in the cupboard in the pot."
"...I understand, thank you dad."
"What are you grateful for? Why do you tell your dad about this?"
There were people at home and hot meals. Wang Haochuan was so moved that he was almost crying. There was nothing else to ask for during this holiday.
"Haochuan..." Before leaving, Wang Yuchun said again: "Next time to come back, you say it in advance, otherwise how can I know when you will come back? Only if you say it, I can be prepared. You and your sister,
One loves to be sulky, the other always keeps his thoughts in his heart. I really have a pair of dull gourds.”
"I'll tell you next time." My father said it, and Wang Haochuan felt relieved: "Dad, come back early after get off work."
"Well. You don't have to cook. I'll go to the restaurant to order two dishes tonight. Go to bed!"
Before returning home, Wang Haochuan made various ideas in his mind - even if his father knew his return date, he still chose to ignore it, and he would be even more hurt. So, even if he bought the ticket, Wang Haochuan still vaguely with his father.
He did not say which day he would come back. In this way, his father would not know his specific return date. If he was not waiting for him at home, Wang Haochuan could forgive him.
But my father did change and even left him breakfast. Could it be that my father has been at home these days? He has hot breakfast every day and then went out? Just to let him go home and have a hot meal?
Wang Haochuan was extremely happy, but he didn't dare to be too happy. Because his father's performance was unstable, he might be disappointed again in the next moment.
As soon as Wang Haochuan peeled the eggshell, the Xie brother and sister came together. When they saw their old friend, Xie Chong's eyes shone.
"Haochuan, Xie Ying said, you posted a paper in the top journal? What a good guy, you are doing big things silently! I have decided that I will also publish a paper next semester!" Xie Chong was full of fighting spirit
: "I can't be compared by you."
"You haven't finished your sophomore year and have not laid your foundation yet. It's not too late to wait until you've been posting again in your junior year."
"If I'm a junior, I'll be like you." Xie Chong joked halfway: "I have to break your record."
"Your competitive and competitive temperament will never change in your life." Wang Haochuan smiled and said, "Then I will give you some experience as a person who has experienced it. Don't post a water magazine. It's useless to publish it. I
I still look down on you."
They seemed to be fighting each other, and neither of them was convinced by each other, but in fact, they both admired each other very much.
Xie Ying was so sleepy that she yawned, but the sound of Hua Tianlong shouting "Xie Ying" echoed in the alley, and she had to cheer up.
"Xiaoying, you are here!"
Hua Tianlong must have just crawled out of the quilt, his hair was messy, he didn't wear socks, and he only wore a pair of thick cotton slippers.
"Tianlong, do you want to go home and wear something more? Will it be cold like this?"
"It's okay, Xiaoying, I have good news to tell you!"
Xie Ying tried hard to open her sleepy eyes: "What good news? It's worth coming to me so anxiously?"
Hua Tianlong seemed to be unable to see two good friends, so he just pulled Xie Ying to the alley, then took out a square piece of paper from his pocket, and said earnestly: "You open it quickly and take a look!"
It was a book publishing contract.
Xie Ying's sleepiness disappeared without a trace in an instant.
She rubbed her eyes and read it carefully again: "The Happy Forest House, is this book really going to be published?"
"Yes, I can't believe it, but... this contract won't lie, right?"
The date of signing the contract is December 1, 2003.
Hua Tianlong couldn't hide his smile: "Xiaoying, I've been waiting for so long and I want to tell you this good news in person."
Hua Tianlong lowered his voice: "I didn't tell anyone except you."
"Ah?!" Xie Ying opened her eyes wide in surprise: "You didn't even tell your parents?"
"No!" Hua Tianlong said proudly: "I want to be the first to tell you."
"For, why?"
"I'm afraid that if I tell others, if I say too much, it will become commonplace, and you won't feel how excited I am! I've been holding it in so many days, and the first person I told was you, at this time,
I am the happiest and most excited! Xiaoying, can you feel it?"
