my summer

Xia Zhi worked in a fast food restaurant for a whole summer vacation, and since that fat man showed up in the restaurant for a week in a row, I was in a state of fishing for three days and drying the net for two days.In the final settlement, I barely paid off the deducted money.In other words, I have been busy for almost a month without earning a penny.

And Xia Zhi earned nearly 1500 yuan.At that time, it was almost a month's wages for ordinary workers.

"Yangyang, it's okay. I'll treat you to something delicious when you get to school." Xia Zhi said.

"Okay." I nodded happily.Originally, I didn't go to work to make money, it doesn't matter, it's really to accumulate some social experience.

The reason why Xia Zhi was able to get so much, apart from his own hard work and hard work, I don't know if there is any credit for it.

This guy Lei Ming claimed that he lost [-] catties of meat for the college entrance examination, and started eating all kinds of wasteful food during the holidays.Later, when he was filling out the application form, his score was barely in the second grade. His father gritted his teeth and applied to a military academy in a remote area. Unexpectedly, he was promoted and passed the physical examination. Tail was "escorted" to school.

"Hey, my wonderful youth," he sighed to me before leaving, "I will dedicate it to the country and the people."

"Great Lightning, I am optimistic about you. You are a role model for our young people to learn from, a handsome and domineering soldier in the future, and a pillar of socialism..." I said seriously.

"Go away," he interrupted me, "my place is not too far away from yours, I will go to you to play with Xia Zhi when I have time."

"Welcome anytime, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the school at all." I said.

"Get out!" He was completely angry.

My mother originally wanted to ask my father to take me to school, but I seriously refused: "I am so old, I can go there by myself by train, the school has a bus to pick me up at the station, and I will go with Xia Zhi, and we will take care of each other. , don't you feel relieved? Don't bother Dad. "

Mom thought about it, and readily agreed.She has always had a stocking attitude towards me and never interfered with my decisions too much.

In the era when there were no moving cars, it took nearly 40 hours to take a train from our city to City C, and we had to spend two nights in the car.But for those of us who are traveling for the first time, 40 hours sounds like 4 hours, and we are completely unaware of the hardships of time on the train.

It happened to be the peak of the university term, and there was a long queue in front of the ticket window of the train station.We queued for nearly an hour before finally getting close to the window.

When queuing up, I was still hesitating whether to buy two sleepers directly, although Xia Zhi had clearly stated before that he would take a hard seat.Unexpectedly, when it was our turn to buy tickets, Xia Zhi was the first to ask the question, but who knew that there was not even a single sleeper ticket left, and they had already been snatched up.

The ticket sales aunt told us with a straight face that if we came later, we would only have standing tickets.We were so scared that we quickly bought two hard seats, and then put them in our pockets and covered them tightly, for fear of being snatched away by the people behind.

"I thought that if you took the sleeper berth, I could go to your place." Xia Zhi sighed and said, "I didn't expect that sleeper berth tickets are so popular."

"Just sit down, it's not a big deal, it's just two nights, you'll be there after a while." I put my arms around his shoulders and walked out of the ticket hall together.

Uh... It didn't feel so smooth, I secretly glanced at the shoulders of the two of them, this guy is actually taller than me!Even though they eat the same food, how can they run faster than me?

On the day of departure, my parents, uncle Guo and Xia Zhi’s mother came to see us off at the same time.I couldn't help but think of the station where we left many years ago, and it was also the six of us.At that time, I was the one who was crying, but now, it was my mother and Xia Zhi's mother who wept silently.

Aunt Sun was as thin as ever, with a sallow complexion, and looked much older than my mother, but I vaguely remembered that they were the same age.

"Mom, I'm in the car. I'll call you when I get there." Xia Zhi said to Aunt Sun.

"Mom, I'm in the car too, and I'll call you when I get there," I said, "Dad, Uncle Guo, take care of yourself and don't worry about us."

"Bon voyage, my lord." Uncle Guo patted me on the shoulder and said.

"Yangyang," Dad said, "you must take good care of yourself outside, and Xia Zhi, you two brothers take good care of each other, and you must pay attention to personal and property safety."

"Okay, don't worry uncle, I will take good care of Yang Yang." Xia Zhi said.

"Although the fate between us adults is broken, you two brothers still have such a good relationship. It's really..." Aunt Sun's voice choked up, "I'm so happy..."

"Yes, yes," my mother said, "I should be happy. Xia Zhi is a good boy and has helped Yang Yang a lot. I said, Lao Zhang, you might as well chase Sun Mei back."

"You... the children are all here, what are you talking about, you..." Dad said anxiously.

"Dad, I think it will work!" I said loudly on purpose.

Aunt Sun's face turned red immediately, and she urged: "Okay, it's almost time, get in the car early and find a good place to settle down."

We don't have much luggage, each of us has a backpack, a large suitcase, and a large bag of food and drink.As soon as I entered the carriage, I was dumbfounded. The carriage was full of people, and the box could not be pushed down the aisle at all, so I could only carry it on my shoulders with both hands.

Every step forward is extremely difficult.

Fortunately, our seats are relatively forward, and we arrived just a few steps away.After stuffing our suitcases like hell onto the luggage rack, we almost slumped on our seats in relief.

The seat is a two-seater, which I am quite satisfied with. Just as I wanted to stretch my legs and relax, an uncle squeezed over, got into the opposite seat, and lay down.Soon the two elder brothers came over, and stood in the open space between us and the seat opposite, which was not spacious at all.

I retracted my legs sullenly, and suddenly bumped into something soft. I looked down, well, there was someone lying under our seats at some point.

"Are you regretting it?" Xia Zhi asked quietly in my ear.

"Huh?" I said, "regret what?"

"I regret going to City C with me. It takes so long to take the bus and there are so many people on board." He squeezed on me and said.

"Ask again and I'll hit you." I glared at him.

"My lord, spare me, but I dare not." He giggled.

I hugged the bag in my arms and planned to pick a bottle of drink to drink.

At this time, a thin girl squeezed over, with a cute and pitiful look, "You two handsome guys, can you do me a favor, let me squeeze on the seat, I will die if I stand all the way to City C. Please!" Already... I'm skinny and won't take up too much space..."

Xia Zhi and I looked at each other, he shook his head slightly, and I looked at the girl again, she was thin and small, her sweaty hair was sticking to her face, she was carrying a big bag on her back, she looked messed up of.

I couldn't bear it, and was about to move out to let her sit in the innermost place. Xia Zhi had already squeezed me to move in, giving up a little space on the outermost side of the aisle.

The girl thanked her and sat down.

There are three people sitting in two seats, even if they are not fat, it is really uncomfortable.Almost meat on meat.

I glanced at the girl's arm next to Xia Zhi, and felt a little uncomfortable, so I leaned in and pulled Xia Zhi closer.Xia Zhi moved a little, but his arms were still unavoidably touching the girl.

I am getting more and more unhappy, but the fruit I planted, no matter how unpalatable it is, I have to eat it.

I picked up a bottle of orange juice and drank it vigorously, but Xia Zhi snatched it away after a few sips, "Don't drink so much water, it's hard to go to the toilet."

"It's hard work, I'm happy!" I said angrily, grabbed the orange juice and planned to continue drinking.

He looked at me for a while, then half-pressed me, and whispered into my ear: "Why, are you still angry? It's not that I want to give up my seat..."

"Who says I'm angry? I'm not angry, I'm just thirsty and drink some water." I bit the bottle and said sullenly.

He smiled faintly, took a few swigs of the orange juice and returned it to me, "I just happened to be thirsty too, so I borrowed it to drink."

"Let her sit inside," I said, "I'll sit in the middle."

"No," he refused bluntly, "just sit like this now."

"Why?" I asked.

"No reason, I'm happy." He looked at me and said.

Maybe it was because of the bad complexion of the two of us, the girl didn't dare to tell us too much, she just exchanged a few simple greetings and then stopped making any noise.

Xia Zhi and I were so close together that we almost hugged each other.We didn't realize it at all. Anyway, there are so many people on the train, and everyone is probably only looking forward to arriving at the station early. Who would have the leisure to think so much?

After a casual snack, we fell asleep and drifted off into the night, and I woke up from the cold.The other hardware on the train is old and shabby, but the air conditioner is very powerful. It can hold up during the day, but it is enough at night.

I moved my numb body, and Xia Zhi also woke up.

"Xia Zhi, I'm so cold, are you cold?" I whispered.

"I'm fine." He looked around, the ground was full of people lying, standing or sitting, there was no open space, and there was no way to open the box to get clothes.He looked behind me again, got up and took down the curtain, put it on me, and hugged me tightly again, "It won't be cold this way, go to sleep."

I smelled the weird smell on the curtains, felt the familiar body temperature of the summer solstice, and continued to sleep in a daze amidst the rumbling train.
