Chapter 628
As the sun went down, the bustling bus station gradually quieted down.

Old Li Tou endured hunger and hunger in the cold wind, and waited hard for a whole day and night, but he couldn't wait for the few educated youths who came to jump in the queue.

Considering the heavy traffic jam caused by the snowstorm.

Old Li always imagined that maybe at a certain point in time, the traffic would suddenly be relieved?
The long car queue began to shuttle back and forth again, becoming a continuous stream.

Isn't it beautiful?
If this is the case, then the shuttle bus of the educated youth who came to jump in the queue will suddenly drive into the bus station in Zhimi County at some point.

Therefore,
For fear of delaying Old Li, who was tasked with taking over the educated youth.In addition to going to the toilet, or occasionally hiding in the concierge to warm up and take a breath.

He didn't dare to leave the gate of Zhimi County Passenger Station for a moment.
"Old Li, come in and enjoy the fire."

Lao Zhang greeted Lao Li, "You have been standing outside for a whole day, look at you now, you are so frozen!"

Old Li sighed, "Old Zhang, why don't you ask the leader of the passenger terminal whether the cars on the road can move?"

Lao Zhang took a puff of smoke, "What is the question? Didn't you look at today, did you only get into the passenger terminal if the car in the direction of Camel City?
Coming from the direction of Suimi County, have you seen a car pull into the station?That means it's blocked, the ball is blocked! "

"Ugh"

Old Li sighed, "Those educated youth dolls will suffer now! It's so cold. Let those educated people from the south be so cold."

Lao Zhang smiled and said, "My butt is still bleeding, why are you still thinking about treating hemorrhoids for others? You haven't eaten all day, have you?"

Lao Li chuckled, "Eat, eat! If you don't eat, who can bear it."

"Please ask!"

Lao Zhang full of distress complained, "You come here to pick up people, you can also count as working for the production team.

Well, if it’s you, go to a state-run restaurant and buy a few steamed buns to eat, and ask for a mouthful of hot mixed soup. When the time comes, take the receipt and find the accountant of the production team, and you will be asked if you report it! "

Old Li turned his head back and said, "I dare not. Without the prior approval of the cadres of the production team.

Uh, if you spend the money like this, you won’t report it to me then, so why not? "

Lao Zhang complained endlessly, "You have been out for a day and a night, and there are many more. You can't be cold, you are still hungry, right?

Even the donkeys of the production team dare not handle them like you do.

Hey, I said, tonight, why don't you go to the shed at the side of the repair department to make do with the night? "

yesterday afternoon,

After Lao Li rushed to Zhimi County Passenger Station, he waited hard all afternoon, but he didn't even see Luo Xuan and the others.

At night.

In the concierge of the passenger station, no irrelevant personnel are allowed to stay. Although it is said that there is nothing in the small concierge.

But according to the public regulations, it is like this.

As a rural man, Lao Li didn't dare to violate it.

At night, the helpless Lao Li could only apologize to a deputy leader of the bus station.

Ask him to allow himself to spend the night in the shed at the bus station for car repairs.

Seeing that Lao Li was pitiful, the deputy leader talked to Lao Li again, and learned that Lao Li was still a distant relative of the leader who had turned over mountains and mountains.

So he agreed that Lao Li would spend the night in the shed.

But at the same time, the leader also put forward several requirements: First, after Lao Li gets up, he must clean up the sanitation in the shed.

The second one, the leader asked Lao Li not to bring the donkey into the repair shed.

The last point is that Lao Li promises that there will be no less than one of the miscellaneous discarded parts in the shed.
At that time, Lao Li patted his chest and promised, "You have pity on a suffering person like me, how can we do such a thing?

No matter how poor my old Li is, you can ask the Dou family geeks. When did someone say that my old Li's hands and feet are not clean? "

The leader also knows that Lao Li's usual reputation is really good.

So the leader finally agreed and let Lao Li spend the night in the garage.
The repair shed was empty.

Even with ventilation on all sides, it's not good enough for a repair shed with only three walls.

One side is completely open, and the north wind is blowing into the shed!

Lao Li unloaded the donkey cart.

Then he tied the donkey to a dead tree in a corner of the station, and he himself pulled the cart into the shed.

The carts are covered with some felt carpets used by station repairmen to pad the floor.

Lao Li slept with his clothes on the cart.

At this time, the blizzard has actually stopped.

But there is the Mu Us Desert in Saibei, and the temperature will drop sharply at night.

No matter how tightly Old Li wrapped the sheepskin jacket on his body, the bone-piercing chill was unbearable
After lying down for a while, Lao Li was so cold that he couldn't help it.

I had no choice but to get up from the cart and go to the porter to borrow a lantern.

Then in the repair shed, I found a small paint bucket, filled it with some scrap motor oil, and added some dead branches to it.

Then Old Li was reluctant to use a match.

With the flame in the lantern, light the dead branches with engine oil to keep warm
When the engine oil burns, the smoke is so big that it is beyond imagination.

Suddenly, thick smoke billowed in the entire car repair shed, and the smell was smoky.

Just choke!
It's better than being cold and having nowhere to escape.
Then Lao Zhang, who was on duty at the concierge, brought Lao Li another tarpaulin from the car.

Only then did Lao Li doze off for a while, half asleep and half awake, while roasting the weak cupping pot amidst the billowing smoke.
This night, for Lao Li,

It was definitely a very long, special tormenting time: Lao Li squinted for a while, as long as he heard the sound of cars passing by outside the bus station or on the road.

Lao Li would wake up immediately.

Then I hurried to the gate of the bus station to see if the bus that took the educated youth came?
The result is naturally disappointment.

When Lao Li returned to the cart, he just squinted for a while.

Between half asleep and half awake,
Lao Li was either woken up by the freezing cold wind or choked by the smoky smoke
Cold and hungry, worried and a little scared.

Lao Li was very afraid: Those educated youths who came from other places and from afar, they would take too much time in the car.

Or get off the wrong car halfway.

So much so that I can't find anyone in the end, the consequences... I'm afraid it will be very serious!

As for how serious?
Old Li also couldn't explain clearly.

Because after all, he is an honest farmer who has lived in the valleys for generations.

Old Li only knew that if he didn't receive the educated youth, he would have missed what the cadres of the production team had told him.

After that, how could the cadres still give themselves a good face? ?

Come to think of it,

At least in the production team, he won't let himself drive a donkey cart again, right?
You must know that in the production team, you can get the job of driving a car. That's very beautiful!
The advantage of driving a donkey cart is not to mention that you can get some black beans and soybeans to eat.

Even if you let the members give a free ride, you can earn a lot of favors that way.

Not to mention going out occasionally in the middle of the night, doing some private work for others, it can be a few cents, or even a few dollars in extra income!
You must not lose the lucrative job of buying a donkey cart! !

Once the idea is made,
Stubborn old Li, he can survive even the most difficult times.

no way,
Once Lao Li lost his head, it would be an easier job to drive the car for the production team.

The few people in the family may fall into famine, and there will be more
The next day,

It was snowing first, and the sun was shining brightly.

The wind is not strong, but it can blow into Old Li's bone marrow
The road from Suimi County to Zhimi County has been completely blocked.

But going north in Suimi County, the national road to Tuocheng is still open.

There are quite a few passengers who need to go to Camel City for business, so the shuttle bus to Camel City is still running normally.

In this period,
90% of the people are suffering people who plan food in the ground.Those people from Zhimi County who went to Tuocheng to do business had relatives in the city.

So when they ride in the car, they often bring a sack of potatoes, or a sack of Chinese cabbage or something like that.

It's good as a hand-holding gift for those relatives who visit the city.

Old Li was so hungry that he couldn't take it anymore.Although he actually had 2 cents in his pocket.

But in my whole life, I have never bought even one Lao Litou with mixed noodles in a restaurant.

He is absolutely reluctant to spend money to buy something for himself to satisfy his hunger.

When I got up early this morning, Lao Li had already gone to the concierge and begged Lao Zhang for water three times.

But drinking water, although it can give people a little sense of fullness at the time.

But not durable.

Just when Old Li was at a loss what to do.

Suddenly I heard someone greeting Old Li, "Hey! That old man, can you help me put my things on the luggage rack?"

Old Li was overjoyed, "Success."

Talking about Lao Li's head twitching, he hurried over to help.

A sack of potatoes is not light.

It is not an easy task to install it on the roof of the passenger car.

Waiting until the tired and out of breath Old Li helped the passengers pack the bag of potatoes.

The passenger asked, "Old man, how about giving you 2 cents as wages?"

Lao Li shook his head,
Pointing to the man's bag, he asked, "I saw a stack of pancakes in your bag just now. Just give me a pancake."

The man was startled: "Stupid old man! A piece of cake is only a few cents, how can you figure it out so that it doesn't hurt anyone?"

Lao Li chuckled, "Eh, help you carry your things into the car. You give me a piece of cake, it's considered a favor.

If I take your money, the people at the station who carry things for passengers... They should clean up. "

"Oh I got it."

The passenger suddenly realized, "That's fine. I think you are a real person. Let me give you three cakes. We won't take advantage of you."

This time, Lao Li finally got 3 cakes for carrying things for passengers.

Eat sparingly,

Then go to Lao Zhang, the concierge, and roast a handful of black beans that were originally used to feed donkeys.

Lao Li rejoiced secretly: It seems that his meals for this day are finally settled!

After getting three pancakes, the other passengers then regarded Lao Li as a porter.

Occasionally someone would say hello and ask him to help with work.

But this time, no matter what Lao Li didn't go to work.Just because the food he urgently needs has already been obtained, if he helps the passengers to carry things and collects rewards.

Regardless of the remuneration received, whether in kind or in cash,
Old Li will always mess with the porters of the service agency who specialize in carrying things for passengers at the bus station to survive.

Old Li is honest, but he is not stupid
The wind blows the sunset, and the jackdaws roost in the forest.

The thousand-year-old ancient city of Yinzhou is already in the twilight.

"Ugh"

Glancing at the setting sun, Old Li couldn't help but sigh, "Why don't you come? If you don't come, the black beans I feed the donkey are almost gone. What's the matter?"

Thinking about tonight, I will spend the whole night in that car repair shed.

Old Li couldn't help it, and shivered.
Just as Lao Li was about to turn around and go back to the porter to find Lao Zhang to warm himself by the fire.

Suddenly, a question came from behind, "This fellow, this is the Zhimi County Bus Station, right?"

Foreign accent?

Old Li frowned slightly, "Isn't there such a big sign hanging on the brick pillar of the gate! Why is it illiterate or something?"

"Huh? I said you, a fellow, why are you speaking so aggressively?"

The man was a little annoyed, "In the past few years, the country has been undergoing major construction everywhere.

In some places there are old stations and there are new ones.In other places, there are short-distance stations and long-distance bus stations.

Let me ask, are you going to confirm again? "

Old Li turned his head around, and saw two men and a woman who came, each carrying a big luggage roll.

Lao Li took a look at the other party, "Where did you come here? Are the three of you in the same group?"

Peng Yong replied coldly, "Not Italy, we are from Bashu Province. Would you like to check our travel certificate?"

"Well, you are a suffering person, and you are not a public servant. How can you check your travel certificate?"

Lao Li grinned,
Showing his big yellow teeth, "Comrades, you are overthinking. Oh, this is the Zhimi County Bus Station. In our county, there is only such a bus station, and there is no second one."

Peng Yong asked, "Then how far is it from Shilipu and the Doujia Gelao production team?"

A bus station employee who was passing by after get off work next to him listened.

He replied casually, "Shilipu Shilipu, it has this name because it is 10 miles away from the county."

But not with that worker.

When Lao Li heard this, his heart beat wildly: "You guys, is one of you surnamed Luo? Another surnamed Zhang and Peng?"

Peng Yong nodded, "That's right. Huh, how do you know?"

"Oh, what a god!"

Lao Li's hands trembled with excitement, "You guys are finally here!"

Luo Xuan looked at Lao Li whose face was blackened here and covered with oily smoke because of using engine oil to heat the fire.

He couldn't help asking, "Master, are you here to pick us up?"

Lao Li slapped his thigh, "Isn't it! Here, I've been waiting for you, almost two days and one night!"

"Then let's go to Shilipu, after the production team of Dou's Gelao."

Luo Xuan asked Lao Li, "Are we living in the educated youth spot, or in the house of the commune members?"

Lao Li replied, "The new kiln at the educated youth site has not been dug yet, so you will live in E's house for the time being."

Luo Xuan nodded, knowing what he had in mind.

If the three of us live in the educated youth spot, then it has little to do with the old man in front of us.

He was probably appointed by the cadres of the production team to pick him up at the station.

As for him being dry here, waiting for two days and one night, the hardships and affection he put in.

Of course, I need to reward others.

But if you still have to live in this old man's house after you settle down, then naturally you need to give him some gifts
This is a different concept from living in an educated youth spot.

Now that I, Zhang Xiaoli, and Peng Yong have arrived at Zhimi County, I don't have to worry about the remaining ten miles.

So Luo Xuan said, "Let's go, I'll invite you to the restaurant and have a good meal. While you're eating, I can go out and buy some gifts."

"That's impossible!"

Old Li waved his hands again and again, "You guys have traveled so far to jump in the queue, there will still be a lot of money to spend in the future! How dare you spend money?"

Zhang Xiaoli smiled slightly, "Master, you don't have to worry about it. Let's go, let's have a good meal!"

When Lao Li saw Zhang Xiaoli, he immediately felt a ray of sunshine shining into his heart.
Warm and bright.

What a comfort!

What a handsome woman!
