Mu Chen

74. Pick up station

It was 3:35 when I left the community, and my home was not far from the train station, only 10 minutes by car.It was cold, and it was snowing lightly. There were not many cars on the road, and Mu Chen was not driving fast. It was 4 o'clock when he arrived at the station.

Muchen parked the car and saw that there was a long line of people at the entrance of the station, but there were not many people at the exit, so he went to the front and stood up.

Called Yu Yong to confirm whether the train was delayed, the voice on the phone was noisy and difficult to speak, and the two hung up the phone quickly.

Think about meeting in 10 minutes, looking forward to it?joy?nervous?eager?There is also an indescribable sourness... strange emotions are stirring in my heart, the only thing that is not entangled in the past.

Muchen couldn't tell what mood he was in, he only knew that these emotions definitely shouldn't belong to an older brother, but now, as the time approached, his heartbeat started to speed up, getting faster and faster.

It was a year ago that Muchen really accepted Yu Yong from his heart.

Before that, although they had been writing letters on the phone, Mu Chen was only talking about family matters - he didn't know what to say, and he even pointed out that Yu Yong could change his mind after passing this hurdle.

Except for the first two confessions that did not get a response, Yu Yong never said a word of miss and love.

His letters were usually short, too, not his life, not his feelings, and there really wasn't much to say.

March 2006, 3, an ordinary Wednesday.Muchen had the surgery, and when he finished his shift, he turned on his mobile phone, and saw two missed calls from an unfamiliar number, and then another text message, also from this number.

"It's me, brother, am I at work? I really want to hear your voice. I always want to say sorry when I am qualified one day, but sometimes I'm really afraid that I won't have the chance again. It should have been said a long time ago , I'm sorry. Also, miss you, Muchen. I love you, Muchen."

Muchen's heart beat wildly, he couldn't imagine what kind of danger Yu Yong had encountered, and what kind of injury he had suffered.They can only use landlines during working hours, and their family members know about the phone calls, and they are not afraid that they will not be able to find him if something happens, but he did not expect this to happen.

Dial it with shaking hands, turn off the phone, dial again, still turn off the phone.He dialed Yu Yong's phone number again, but it was also turned off.

Muchen's legs were weak, and cold sweat flowed down his face.He dialed the number of Yu Yong's company, and the other party only said that Yu Yong was not there and he could leave a message, but he was "unclear" about the others.

Muchen was so anxious that he went crazy, he dialed two cell phone numbers all night, and by dawn he was already in despair.

Regardless of other things, first call Gu Ning and ask him to help check Yu Yong's current situation, and plan to book a ticket to Yu Yong's residence.

Gu Ning was still calm, told him not to move, he went to inquire about the news, if it was just a false alarm, his actions like this might affect Yu Yong.

Mu Chen didn't dare to move anymore, but he couldn't sleep for several days in a row, all kinds of guesses, endless fear... until he got the news from Gu Ning.

It was a confidential matter, and Gu Ning only confirmed it a few days later. Yu Yong was injured, but it was not serious, and he was about to return to the team, and he might get an award.

Muchen heaved a long sigh of relief, he hated his perfunctory hesitation in the torment of the past few days.

If you don't accept it, how can you promise?Once promised, how can we perfunctory?A man must keep his words and his actions, so what kind of mood does Yu Yong feel when he is so ambiguous?Since you are unwilling to give up, and since you have promised, you can only work hard to love, to love deeply, even if you die nine times, you will not regret it.

Why hesitate?In the face of life and death, everything is false, only remorse and regret are true, and this is the only eternity.

Sure enough, a few days later on the weekend, he received a routine call from Yu Yong.Yu Yong didn't mention that he was injured, although this time he was the real survivor.

Muchen also pretended nothing happened, and just said flatly when he was about to hang up the phone, "From now on, I will keep my mobile phone with me, and unless I have an operation, I can answer your calls at other times."

Yu Yong raised his eyebrows, "No way, isn't it stipulated that you can only use landlines when you go to work?"

Mu Chen smiled lightly, "It's a big deal to deduct the money, brother has money." Having said this, his voice lowered, "Silly boy, I miss you too, and I want to hear your voice."

Yu Yong was very surprised, "Huh? Brother, you, me"

Muchen's tone was extremely gentle, "I love you too, Xiaoyong."

The waiting time was always long. After Mu Chen checked his watch a few times, he saw a group of people coming out of a far corner.There were far more people leaving the station than those who picked him up, and most of them were large and small bags. He was gradually pushed aside by the crowd.

But it was already almost 5 o'clock, seeing that the people standing at the station started to drop off, Yu Yong didn't even show up.Muchen became anxious, he took out his mobile phone and dialed.

The line was busy, and I called again, this time it got through, but no one answered.He dialed again and still no one answered, Mu Chen stared at the phone, his heart sank, was this an accident?

I was wondering, and suddenly heard a voice, "Brother!"

Looking up, Yu Yong was dressed in normal clothes, handsome and tall, but there were four or five colorful bags hanging on his shoulders and arms. He was holding a cardboard box with both hands, and half supported an old lady on the other side, and was walking slowly. walked towards him.

Muchen only felt that the sky suddenly brightened.He hurried forward a few steps, first helped to carry two bags, and then took the cardboard box.

Yu Yong smirked big and big, "Brother, have you been waiting for a long time, have you driven yet? This aunt came to visit her son from her hometown and brought too many things. She just got in touch with her son. It will take a while for his son to come here. Today It's snowing again, so I'll let him wait at home, his house is not far from our house, bro, let's send him there!"

Muchen had a serious face, "You didn't call me when you came out late, don't you know if I would be in a hurry?"

Yu Yong didn't take it seriously at all, and touched Mu Chen with his shoulder, "Okay, I see, didn't you just help aunt to pack things and didn't take care of it?"

Mu Chen glared at him angrily, then glanced again, and then again, "Have you grown taller again, kid?"

Yu Yong smugly said, "Well, I'm 186 now."

Mu Chen feigned anger, "Brat, is it interesting to secretly grow taller while I'm not around?"

Yu Yong smiled, "Yes, bro, we are now ten centimeters apart, which is said to be...the best height difference..." His voice darkened, but his smile brightened even more.

"Yu Xiaoyong, what are you looking for?" Mu Chen said forcefully, but he couldn't hide the smile in the corner of his eyes.

Seeing his eyes rolling, his exquisite eyebrows and eyes shining like summer flowers, Yu Yong's heart swelled up more cheerfully.

Walking to the parking lot, he helped the old lady into the back seat, put everything into the trunk, started the car and drove back.The snow particles are not big, but it will start to fall in a hurry. Mu Chen turned on the wiper and swept it over and over again. The two of them didn't talk anymore, but the warmth was overflowing.

"Brother, aunt's house is in Jincheng Garden, do you know the way?"

"Well, it's two streets away from our house."

The old lady may be a little deaf, and has been looking out the window without talking to them.

When he was approaching Jincheng Garden, Yu Yong called the old lady's son. It was because of this conversation that he stayed in the car for a long time.The old lady has a phone herself, but she is hard of hearing and cannot hear her son's voice. She is in a hurry, and she is still very vigilant when she sees Yu Yong in military uniform who wants to help.

Yu Yong put down the phone, "Brother, let's drive in directly, his house is in Building 29, it's still far away, and there are so many things."

"Okay." Mu Chen took out a dollar from the car door, waited for the concierge to collect the money and set up the crossbar before driving into the community.

After going in and walking around for a while, I saw the building number "29". When I got closer, I saw a man in a black down jacket downstairs from a long way away, and saw them striding forward.

"Hey, Brother Xu, why is it you." Mu Chen stopped the car, walked out to say hello.

The person who came was Xu Ming, a colleague from the hospital, a cardiac surgeon who worked in the emergency building two afternoons a week, and they were very familiar with each other. "Xiaomu, why is it you? Our old lady asked you to send it back."

"Yeah, the old lady ran into my brother in the car, maybe she believed my brother because he was handsome." Mu Chen joked.

Xu Ming also laughed, "Don't mention it, my mother is too stubborn. I told her that I would go back to pick her up after a break next week. She insisted on taking the train. I was so scared when I received the phone call. I can't hear, I can't even walk..."

At this time, the old man had been helped down by Yu Yong, and he just heard this sentence, and immediately became unhappy, "You said you couldn't go back on duty during the Chinese New Year, and last week you said you couldn't go back because someone else was on duty, and you're going to be fifteen soon. I have to work overtime, and the fried meatballs and fried crispy meat for you are almost ruined. If I don’t bring them again, you will smell bad when you go home next week. "

Xu Ming smiled helplessly, "Okay, okay, I got it. If you come and tell me earlier, I'll pick you up at the station. You said that if you didn't meet a kind person today, what would you do if you lost it and couldn't come back?"

The old man looked smug, "Don't worry, I won't let others see my phone number. Xiao Yu is from the People's Liberation Army, and he helped others a lot in the car. That's why I checked his ID first before asking him to call you." Yes. Besides, it doesn’t matter even if the phone is lost, I saved your account for Amin, not for ‘son’.”

Xu Ming was defeated, "Mom, you are too witty."

Everyone laughed and helped the old man lift things up together.No matter what the old lady said, she would give Yu Yong two packs of meatballs, one with meat and one with radish.

Yu Yong refused, but Xu Ming said, "Xiao Yu, don't be too polite. Look at how much our old lady has memorized. How can we eat it all? I will bring it to the department tomorrow, and I won't give it to you at that time." Your brother."

Mu Chen accepted it with a smile, "Then I won't be polite."

Then he said loudly in the old lady's ear, "Thank you, aunt, you don't know how many people snatch these good things that brother Xu brings to the hospital every year, but this year I missed it first."

The old lady was even happier after being coaxed, and she wanted to pack a few more sausages, so Mu Chen quickly gave way and left.

As soon as he came out of the building, Yu Yong put his hand on Mu Chen's shoulder, "Brother, do you miss me?"

"Don't talk nonsense here." Mu Chen smiled softly, and then sighed a little, "Dr. Xu's wife just divorced him a few years ago, and his old lady probably doesn't know about it. Look how many things he brought today."

Yu Yong couldn't see Mu Chen worrying, so he turned his head and whispered in his ear, "Brother, don't worry, we two won't get divorced, I've depended on you all my life, I can't tear it apart."

Mu Chen squinted at him, "Mr. Yu, are you a dog skin plaster? You can't even tear it off."

The tone is distasteful, and the smile is bright.
