"Oh, Xiaowei, I will ask Uncle Li to pick you up tomorrow and take you to the train station in the city. I have also bought the tickets for two people. You can arrive in the capital the next morning. Your grandma and I are here
I'll wait for you at the station gate." Master happily explained on the other end of the phone.
The next day, a car drove into the quiet mountain village early in the morning. The weather was gray and there seemed to be a chill in the air.
Ling Xiaowei put on a thick black down jacket and a red thread cap. Her face, which was as tough as frost and snow, was even more white and shiny surrounded by black and red.
Zhang Cuifen explained to Ling Xiaowei all the things she had prepared all morning: "These are cured meats, these are dried prunes, these are pickled dried radishes, these are all for your grandma and grandpa. This is for you on the way."
You've got the food."
Ling Xiaowei felt something warm in her hands. They should be boiled tea eggs, steamed sweet potatoes, and scallion pancakes, which she likes to eat.
"When you arrive in Beijing, give us a call immediately." Zhang Cuifa warned.
Ling Guoqiang, who was behind the crowd, silently looked at the lively crowd in front of him, feeling very reluctant and the corners of his eyes were moist.
For the first time, his daughter was not at home to celebrate the New Year, and he couldn't bear it. Although he thought that such a day would eventually happen, he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.
"Dad, I have to leave." Ling Xiaowei crossed the crowd and walked to Ling Guoqiang.
Ling Guoqiang hurriedly wiped his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, pay attention to safety on the road. Nothing else is important. Your own safety is the most important. You must remember what dad said. Call me as soon as you get to the capital."
"I know, dad, don't worry, Wang Xiaochun is with me, I will be fine," Ling Xiaowei said.
"It's good to have someone with us." Ling Guoqiang knew that Xiaowei was taking Wang Xiaochun to the capital this time. Although he didn't know why it was Wang Xiaochun, having someone with him along the way and helping each other really made him feel at ease.
Ling Xiaowei got in the car. When the car drove to the bridge entrance, Ling Xiaowei saw Shi Mingwei standing at the bridge with a sullen face, with anger, disappointment, and reluctance in his eyes.
She was not celebrating the New Year in her hometown. She didn't tell anyone about this matter. Neither Qiao Qiaodan nor Wang Haohao knew about it, so Shi Mingwei naturally didn't know about it either.
He must be furious when he sees her leaving now!
Ling Xiaowei sat in the back seat and took a deep breath. This was good, she could stay away for a while, and she wouldn't miss her if she didn't see him. As time went by, some things and some people would slowly fade away.
At the intersection of Qiaodandan's village, Ling Xiaowei saw brother and sister Wang Xiaofei and Wang Xiaochun.
Wang Xiaochun was carrying a big bag in his hand and a big bag on his back. Next to his hand was a bag containing fertilizer. The bag was so bulging that it looked like it was filled with quilts.
This means moving the entire house here!
Ling Xiaowei got out of the car and said to the two of them: "What are you bringing with you? Just don't bring any quilts or anything like that. They are all available in the dormitory over there, as well as daily necessities. You can get them over there. Bring something to change."
Just clothes."
After the two listened to Ling Xiaowei's words, Wang Xiaochun took a bag of clothes and followed Ling Xiaowei into the car.
This was the first time for Wang Xiaochun to ride in such a car. She was excited and novel, but even more cautious. She sat in the car, carefully holding her bag in her arms and keeping her back straight.
It seemed like he didn't dare to move.
Ling Xiaowei felt funny when she saw her being so reserved.
She smiled and said to Wang Xiaochun: "Xiaochun, don't be so nervous. Relax first. You can squint for a while. It takes an hour to get to the city from here!"
"Yes, you two can rest for a while. I'll remind you when we get there." Uncle Li, who was driving in front, said with a smile.
"Thank you, Uncle Li." Ling Xiaowei thanked him.
This thank you made me flirt with Uncle Li, and we had a good time chatting with each other. This Uncle Li is a student of the master and is now a member of the city's education bureau.
As for what position he was in, Ling Xiaowei didn't ask, but from the other party's conversation and demeanor, Ling Xiaowei felt that Uncle Li must not be an ordinary cadre.
Ling Xiaowei squinted for a while, while Wang Xiaochun stared out of the window the whole time. She was very happy inside. It was the first time she walked so far and saw so much. When she arrived in the city, it became even more prosperous.
It turns out that the people in the city are so bright and beautiful, and this house is so tall.
When she arrived at the train station, she called Ling Xiaowei and said: "Xiaowei, wake up, we are at the station."
Ling Xiaowei rubbed her eyes, got out of the car, and looked at her watch. It was still more than an hour before departure, so there was still time.
The two of them unloaded the things from the trunk, thanked Uncle Li, and then went to check in and wait for the bus in the waiting room.
Fortunately, there was Wang Xiaochun along the way. She was very strong. If Ling Xiaowei wanted to carry something with both hands, she could do it with just one hand.
Seeing that Ling Xiaowei was struggling to carry a bag of things, she wanted to go over and carry it all by herself, then she walked quickly on her back.
Ling Xiaowei helped her get her bag.
The two of them waited not long before getting on the train.
The train platform was crowded with people, some were getting off and some were getting on. Ling Xiaowei hugged the two bags tightly. Wang Xiaochun carried the bags and looked for a seat. After a while, he found them, put down his things, and waved.
Shouted: "Xiaowei, come here."
Fortunately, I didn't bring Xiao Huaai with me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to control him, and he might get lost. There are really too many people on this train.
After sitting down in her seat, Ling Xiaowei also breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Xiaochun was in high spirits, looking around and whispered to Ling Xiaowei: "This is my first time taking a train. There are so many people."
Ling Xiaowei laughed and said: "When you get to the capital, you will find that these are nothing."
"Well, Xiaowei, thank you for bringing me out. Before I came here, I was always hesitant and timid, but now I think I made the right decision to come out." Wang Xiaochun suddenly became lively.
She became talkative, and Ling Xiaowei was naturally willing to talk to her. He told her all the problems she might face when going to the capital and the people she would meet.
I also talked to her about other things, such as how many years I have been studying, what I like to do, and whether I have any ideas about what I want to do in the future.
Wang Xiaochun became talkative and talked a lot, but she had no idea about what to do in the future. Instead, she asked: "Xiaowei, what do you think I can do? I can only make clothes now. I don't know about the others."
do what."
"I'm not your brain, and I don't know you very well, but I hope you don't limit yourself to the things in front of you now, and look far away." Ling Xiaowei can only say so much. Whether a person can grow up depends on
own.
Wang Xiaochun seemed to understand, and looked at Ling Xiaowei with awe in her eyes. She felt that this little girl younger than herself in front of her was so powerful.
