Two trees make a forest

Chapter 31 The Train

Early the next morning, grandma got up early and cooked my favorite egg noodles.We have breakfast together as a family.Tian En picked up her schoolbag and left in a hurry after eating a few mouthfuls. Grandma took out a bag of things from the kitchen and asked us to eat on the train.My dad packed up his things after eating and was always ready to go out.Looking at the clock, it's not yet seven o'clock.My train ticket is eight fifty.As soon as seven o'clock arrived, grandma began to urge us to leave quickly, so as not to be delayed by traffic jams.

My dad was carrying a luggage bag with my bedding in it, the food my grandma made in one hand, and the pots and pans he bought for me in the other.And I hold the suitcase in one hand, which contains my clothes, and the schoolbag on my back, which contains my school utensils and some small daily necessities.My dad and I walked out of the door under grandma's nagging.Grandma hurriedly chased us to the balcony again, and kept asking us: "Have you figured out what else you haven't brought? You'll be late at the station."

"I brought everything. Mom, you go in, I will deliver Duoduo safely." My dad comforted grandma before leaving.

After leaving the yard, my dad and I met many of his colleagues at the bus stop. As soon as everyone saw me, they began to praise my dad for his good education and the birth of a good daughter.I was a little too shy to look at people.The car came, and we squeezed up with the flow of people.This bus goes exclusively to the train station. Everyone is carrying luggage, big and small, and it is very crowded.After finally arriving at the train station, as soon as the door opened, everyone was spit out by the car, and each of them started running on their own route again.

We waited through the ticket gate with our tickets. I saw many parents with their children. It seems that many of them went to other places to go to college like me.This was the first time I entered the waiting room, and it was full of people smoking, chatting, arguing, and shopping. . .Everyone was crowded together, the whole waiting room was noisy, and the air was not moving. Although it was the beginning of September, the scorching heat had not yet dissipated.My dad and I managed to find two seats to sit down, and we started sweating outside.

"Are you thirsty? I'll buy you some water." My dad started to ask me after putting away the salute. I looked around and saw a small shop not far away, so I nodded.My dad got up and left, but he didn't go there, but went straight out of the waiting room. I was going to call my dad, but there were too many people and I had a lot of things.

When my dad came back with a bag of water, I pointed to a small shop not far away: "Dad, there is it."

My dad looked at me and said with a smile: "You have never been out, so I don't know. The things inside the station are always more expensive than those sold outside. Even the outside is more expensive than the shops around us. I should have bought it if I knew it earlier." Come here again." My dad unscrewed a bottle and handed it to me, and I, a frog in a well, nodded and took it.Before leaving Pingzhou, I felt the hardships in the future.

After waiting for a while, our car arrived, and the people around rushed to the entrance of the station like grabbing something, which made me nervous: "Dad, is it time to enter the station? It's late, isn't it? I won't let you in."

My dad slowly packed his things: "It's not late today, I'm lucky. Carry it well, there are many people at the station, especially when queuing, there are many pickpockets." My dad distributed the bags before leading me to stand in line : "If you have time to line up for us, but you can't walk slowly. The train will leave and the ticket will be invalid. It's your first time, follow me in a while." I was really afraid that the turbulent flow of people would wash us away, and I had the illusion that I couldn't find home.

The subtitles on the video display changed to green, and the staff guarding the ticket gates also began to open the passage, and everyone couldn't wait to squeeze in.The neat and orderly queuing is completely forgotten by everyone.I was also squeezed by the people behind me and couldn't breathe properly.When I finally squeezed through the narrow entrance, I saw my dad waiting in front of me, and I hurried over with my suitcase.I saw everyone walking quickly outside, and my heart became impatient.When we got to the platform, there was another long queue.

When my dad and I got on the train safely, I found that the aisles were full of people, and everyone had so much luggage that the luggage racks couldn’t fit it all.My dad took me to find our seats. A mother and son were already seated. Seeing us, my mother picked up her three or four-year-old son.My dad squeezed the luggage on the luggage rack and stuffed it under the seat, even where our square legs were.The first time I took a train, the crowding and clutter made me feel like I didn't want to ride again.

When the unique starting sound of the train sounded, some people were looking for their seats in the aisle.Sitting across from me was a couple and their son.They also have a lot of luggage, and it seems that they are also here to send their son to study.

Before the train left the station, the aunt on the opposite side began to ask: "Are you also here to send your daughter to college?"

My dad nodded: "Yes, it's the first time she went to such a far place, alone, don't worry."

The aunt covered her mouth and smiled: "My son is too. It's his first time going out of the province. His grandparents also want to come, but they are afraid that the journey will be too bumpy."

"Yes, yes. Her grandma is too. She is older, and she is more at ease at home." My dad took out the eggs that my grandma had marinated overnight, "Do you want to eat them?" Auntie shook her hand.My dad asked around, and finally I took one out to eat.

I looked at my aunt who was looking at me, and my heart was a little hairy, so I ate very carefully.The scenery outside the window can no longer see the buildings, and the train shuttles through the mountains.The aunt was happy: "My son is going to Changsha B University."

My dad cast a complimenting look at the boy opposite me: "Not bad." Auntie was very satisfied with my dad's praise.The boy was a little embarrassed by what my dad said, and he never raised his head.

The boy's father touched his aunt with his elbow and muttered in a low voice: "I told you not to talk to everyone."

The aunt gave my uncle a look, proudly: "It's good at first, why hide it. My son is promising." The aunt asked my dad excitedly: "Where is your daughter?"

My dad looked at me, and I looked at my dad.My dad rolled his eyes and waved his hands: "It's not bad if she can get into college."

My aunt leaned back happily, and taught my dad: "Don't worry too much about it. Now, it's not bad if you can pass the exam. It doesn't matter which university you graduated from." My dad nodded repeatedly, and the aunt continued to publish Her remarks: "The purpose of going to college is not to find a good job in the future. With a college degree, it is easy to find a job anywhere." My dad continued to nod, and my aunt became more and more happy. She talked eloquently, but my dad really listened attentively and was very teachable.

I saw that the ears of the boy on the opposite side were red with embarrassment, and I thought to myself: Fortunately, my dad doesn't like to talk, otherwise I will suffer for the more than 30 hours.

At lunch time, my dad took out the meals prepared by grandma.The family opposite bought meals on the train.The mother and son next to us only ate a box of instant noodles.After being tired, tired of sitting, and full, the aunt finally fell asleep leaning against the back of the chair.My dad twisted his neck too, and I heard the crackling of bones.

The time on the train is very boring, there are all kinds of sounds in the carriage, talking and laughing, arguing, hawking, crying of children, and even the sound of playing cards.I packed a few books in my backpack. I originally planned to spend time reading in the car, but I didn't expect it to be so noisy in the car.Close your eyes and rest for a while, your nose can smell the messy smell in the air more and more clearly, your nerves can't calm down at all.In the end, I started to sit and walk.

In the evening, the family on the opposite side arrived, and they hurriedly got out of the car.My ears are much cleaner and I can stretch my feet.Seeing that no one was sitting, the mother next to her put her son on the opposite seat.I saw some people put their legs directly on the open space opposite.Everyone began to find their most comfortable way to sleep.As the night went on, the car became quieter, but I felt more uncomfortable.After sitting for more than ten hours, my body began to be overwhelmed, especially when I was the most tired at night, my spine was like an iron pestle grinding on my body, and I couldn't find its most comfortable fulcrum.One night, I twisted and turned, fell asleep and woke up intermittently, woke up and fell asleep again.I don't know if the watch is broken, it goes very slowly.I was so uncomfortable that I wanted to lie down on the aisle.Occasionally, I turned my head to see my dad sleeping soundly, and remembered what my grandma said: "Your dad takes the train whenever he is on a business trip. I really don't know how the current factory arranges it. Can't you be a bus? You don't need that little money." "I don't know how many times my dad took the train before he got used to it now.

On the second day after I didn't sleep well, I was all listless.My dad made instant noodles for me.The child on the opposite side sat up and looked at me after being full of sleep.His mother tore open the biscuit and handed it to him.He ate a few pieces, then picked up the mineral water and gulped it up, but he still couldn't take his eyes off me.I took out my eyes and rubbed the bridge of my nose, feeling that my eyes were astringent.

"You have to endure it." I handed me the instant noodles, "There are still more than ten hours." I hung my heavy head.

The train was slow, and when it reached the next station, another group of people boarded.The mother brought her son over, and I heard him say to his mother: "Mom, her chain is so beautiful." Then I noticed the silver bracelet on my wrist, which was given to me by Mu Xizi the year before last.

"The bracelet you bought?" It seems that my dad also heard what the child said.

I smiled at my dad: "Mu Xizi sent it."

My dad nodded: "I heard you said she is also at Shanghai A University." I nodded.My dad rarely smiled: "The relationship between you two has been good since childhood. With her here, I feel at ease." I also thought so in my heart.

When I think of A Dayoumu Xizi, I feel that I am not afraid of anything, and my spirit of depression is much better.

The transoceanic plane arrived in the United States, and my aunt's friend had already picked me up at the airport.She is a beautiful aunt. She held up bold big characters and let me find her at a glance.I got in her car and went to the school to report first.The school is very free, and you don't have to live on campus, so I listened to Aunt Qiu and stayed at her house.This is what my aunt means.I think, my aunt is afraid that I am not familiar with the place, so it is better to have someone to take care of me and supervise me.A few days before school started, Aunt Qiu led me around.She is a celibate, so she is not married yet.The schools of Xia Shengnan and Liu Ziyang are not far from my school.After knowing my arrival, Liu Ziyang brought Xia Shengnan to meet me.On the same day, Liu Ziyang gave me a new mobile phone, everything in it was set up, including the phone number between him and Xia Shengnan.In the evening, Aunt Qiu asked me about my relationship with Liu Ziyang, and I just said we were friends.Aunt Qiu patted me on the shoulder and said, "Such a good friend has to be caught." Before going to bed, I received a message from Liu Ziyang: Can you be my girlfriend?I thought for a while and replied: OK.Putting down the phone, I felt relieved.In a foreign country, homesickness arises spontaneously, and a sense of loneliness follows.I turned over and saw Liu Ziyang's message: I finally waited for your reply. Fortunately, I didn't give up. My favorite Xizi, good night.Someone cares and someone loves me. Being in a foreign country, I feel a little bit of warmth.I hold the phone in my hand, and the screen saver is a picture of a cute cat.I suddenly remembered when I was a child, Lin Duoduo and I saw a kitten on the side of the road. It saw us approaching and made a sharp cry.Lin Duoduo, an idiot, still said naively: "Be good, little cat, I'll take you to find mother cat." She was so big, and as soon as she approached, the kitten ran from between her legs gone.For this reason, I scolded Lin Duoduo a lot. She kept examining herself and promised: "I will definitely pay you one in the future, so you don't want to have a baby." Follow her promise.Somehow I fell asleep.
