Huang Xiaojuan smiled: "So it was for Lu Zhiqing."

Yang Haozhong looked at her and waved: "You are going to the capital tomorrow, and you will have to pack up. We have people to entertain you here, so you don't have to worry about it."

This was exactly what Zhu Xiaomin wanted. She agreed with a smile and said apologetically to Gu Mancang and others: "Then we will leave first. I will find time to come back during the holidays."

When everyone heard this, naturally no one had any objections and they all expressed their politeness.

After get off work the next day, Zhao Zheng and Meng Zihao brought the institute's double-row truck over and had lunch with everyone at a state-owned restaurant. They also discussed some future work arrangements. After lunch, they went to the guesthouse to load the male educated youth's luggage, and then went to the herbal medicine factory to move Zhu Xiaomin's things.

They were both stunned when they saw the car was almost full of stuff.

When I received Zhu Xiaomin’s call, I knew there were a lot of things, but I didn’t expect there would be so many.

Zhu Xiaomin was helpless: "When they came here, they hadn't bought their train tickets yet, otherwise they could have checked their luggage in advance."

Xie Chengzhi said: "This car can't hold so many people. Why don't a few women and children follow the car and we can just walk over."

Zhu Xiaomin hesitated for a moment and shook her head: "Let the male educated youth go first. When we get there, they will check in their luggage first, and we will go over slowly."

This is more reasonable. Meng Zihao just nodded and heard Song Zhian say, “No need to check it in. It costs money to check in luggage. We can just bring it ourselves.”

Zhu Xiaomin was helpless: "Each of you is carrying several large packages, and I have even more, how can I take them all away?"

Song Zhian said: "Let's divide it up. With so many people, each person can just take a little more."

This child is scared of poverty.

Zhu Xiaomin said: "We have tickets, and it doesn't cost much to check in luggage with the train. Otherwise, we can pick up the big luggage and check it in, and carry the smaller ones ourselves."

This works!

Seeing Song Zhian finally nodded, Meng Zihao said to Zhao Zheng: “You follow the car, I will take the path behind the station with them, it’s closer.”

After discussing it, everyone gathered their tickets. Wu Xulin, a few others and Jiang Xingyu got on the bus together. They went to check in their luggage first, and the rest of the people walked.

Without having to carry luggage, Song Zhian and Yang Aijun rushed to carry the two little ones on their necks, chatting and laughing all the way to the train station. Song Zhian even muttered to himself, "It's not that I'm stingy. When we go to college, we have no income. We don't have to save the little money we have, right?"

In this era, you don’t have to pay tuition to go to college, and you will receive living allowances, so you only need to bear part of the living expenses yourself.

Even so, it is still difficult for many families.

Zhu Xiaomin understood, nodded, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, we are all together. If you have any difficulties, you can find Lu Mingzheng."

Everyone: I feel much more relieved after hearing this.

Although the path was much closer, it still took more than an hour to walk there. Fortunately, everyone was used to walking on mountain roads, so walking on this flat road was effortless.

When everyone arrived, Wu Xulin and a few others had already checked in their large luggage, leaving only shoulder bags and other items in the car.

After entering the waiting room, Zhu Xiaomin saw that there was still nearly two hours before ticket inspection, so she said to Zhao and Meng, "The train is too late, and the train has to go back to the institute, so you should go back first."

It is indeed late.

The two of them stopped being polite and said goodbye to everyone and left.

The train to Longcheng leaves half an hour earlier than the train to Beijing. Zhu Xiaomin, Miao Shiwen, Xie Chengzhi and others first send Jiang Xingyu and He Lanfang to the station.

Seeing the ticket check start, He Lanfang lined up and walked forward. She looked back several times and saw Zhu Xiaomin standing behind her, watching them leave. Finally, she couldn't help it and turned back, hugged Zhu Xiaomin, and said with a sob: "Xiaomin, don't forget me, remember to write to me."

Zhu Xiaomin's eyes were also a little hot. She hugged her tightly and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I'll come to see you when I have the chance, and you can also come to Beijing to play."

He Lanfang nodded, then reluctantly let her go and walked into the station, looking back every few steps.

They watched the two people enter the station, and only came back when they could no longer see them.

Miao Shiwen looked back several times and whispered, "Two years ago, you also sent Qiaomei away here, right?"

Zhang Qiaomei is looking for a job and is returning to the city, so she has to transfer in Longcheng.

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "She took the daytime train that time, and I didn't have to wait for the train. I sent her to the platform." She stated calmly, and recalled the time when she sent Zhang Qiaomei away, and sighed slightly.

Miao Shiwen knew what she was thinking and whispered, "She eventually left us. After you left last time, I sorted out a stack of information and sent it to her. I don't know if she applied for the exam, and she didn't reply."

It was after the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came out.

Zhu Xiaomin shook her head and said nothing.

After Zhang Qiaomei received her high school diploma, she no longer had the heart to study. Even if she had all their information, she might not be able to get into the school.

Half an hour passed quickly and everyone finally checked their tickets and got on the bus.

You couldn't choose your seat when buying tickets at that time. Everyone bought tickets one by one. Thirty-four people sat in a row, occupying nearly seven rows.

It was already late at night when we got on the bus. We sat next to each other randomly at first. When the car became quiet, we rearranged the seats, vacated the three-person seat in the middle row, and put the two children, who had been coaxed to sleep, on the chairs, head to head.

There were many people on the bus and it was difficult for the adults to lie down to sleep, so the male educated youth took care of several female comrades. Miao Shiwen sat by the window opposite the children, while Zhu Xiaomin and Jiang Sao sat by the window of the double seat on the other side of the aisle, where they could lie on the small table to rest.

Xie Chengzhi sat next to Miao Shiwen, and the three male educated youth who gave up their seats squeezed into other rows.

The train left Pingcheng and quickly entered the mountains, stopping and starting along the way. After passing a few small stations, there were more and more people in the carriage, and more and more people were left without seats. Many people saw the two children sleeping on the chairs and tried to squeeze over to sit down, but were decisively rejected by Miao Shiwen.

As the night deepened, the lights in the train carriage were turned off and the carriage fell into a deep sleep.

The train was shaking and with two children, Zhu Xiaomin did not sleep well and woke up quickly every time the train slowed down.

It was a little after one in the morning, and soon after the train passed a small station, someone in the carriage walked over.

Hearing the commotion in the carriage, Zhu Xiaomin slowly opened her eyes, first looked at the two children sleeping on the other side, then glanced at Miao Shiwen who was sleeping against Xie Chengzhi, then she looked up and glanced at the few people who were squeezing through the crowd and walking towards here.

With just this one glance, she unexpectedly met someone's gaze. Zhu Xiaomin's eyes suddenly widened and she opened her mouth to say hello, but she saw the other person slightly shook his head and silently looked away.

Zhu Xiaomin was stunned and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She turned her eyes to him and then looked at other people as if nothing had happened.
