Li Mingyuan, dressed in a neat suit and carrying a briefcase, rushed in with a bead of sweat on his forehead: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! The meeting just ended.

Tomorrow morning I have to rush to Anshi to attend an emergency coordination meeting, chaired by a leader from the province..."

He gasped and looked at Li Mingli, his face full of apology, "Little sister, I really can't send you off tomorrow..."

The dinner table suddenly became quiet.

The corners of Li Mingli's mouth moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but then she pursed her lips into a straight line.

Just for this matter, there is no need to be so anxious. On second thought, it is a pity to waste that kind of train ticket. Thinking of this, I can't control my expression!

But this expression, to others, looks a little unhappy!

Li Guifang immediately frowned and slammed her chopsticks on the table: "I knew I couldn't count on you!

Every day is either this meeting or that meeting. My sister has only gone to college once in her life, and you, as her brother, just let her down at the last minute! How can you be such a worthless brother! Your words are louder than a fart!

Seeing this, Li Jianghai quickly stepped out to smooth things over cheerfully, "Alright, alright, it's no big deal! If you don't go, I'll go!"

It's a good opportunity for me to see how magnificent our bright and beautiful university is!

God knows how happy he was when he heard the unexpected news that Li Mingyuan couldn't go!

Mingli had only bought three tickets before. After he had sold all the popular items in his hands, he went to the station to queue up to buy tickets. However, by then, there were no remaining tickets.

I was just worried about having no excuse to catch up! This is perfect.

Li Mingyuan felt so ashamed of being treated so coldly that he quickly pulled out his wallet, pulled out two big unity banknotes, and stuffed them into Li Mingli's pockets without saying a word. "Take this money and buy some school supplies... I'm really sorry for you this time!"

As he spoke, he promised, "Next time, next time, I'll go to your graduation ceremony!"

"Okay, okay, stop writing blank checks and eat quickly!" Li Guifang didn't really expect Li Mingyuan to send her off!

It was he who vowed to go that she bought his ticket, but now she is disgusted with him for going back on his word!

The atmosphere of the farewell banquet became lively again. The moonlight outside the window was bright, and the future seemed to unfold slowly in this warm light.

The next morning, Li Guifang and her family of three went out under the starry sky, stepping one step forward and one step shallow!

The platform was crowded with people, and after finally squeezing into the carriage, the three of them were already sweating profusely.

The aroma of noodle sauce, the sweat of the passengers, and the sweet smell of orange peel mixed together to form the unique smell of this special train for the start of school.

After a lot of effort, the three of them finally found their seats and sat down!

Li Mingli leaned against the car window, not saying a word!

Looking out the window at the fields rapidly receding, my fingers unconsciously drew circles on the glass.

Is the boy who said he would come to Beijing to find her also on a train now?

Li Jianghai, who was standing opposite her, had no idea what the girl was thinking at the moment!

I saw that he had narrowed his eyes and his head swayed slightly with the movement of the carriage.

Li Guifang on the side, on the other hand, looked radiant, as if she had been injected with endless energy.

Her eyes were unusually bright and she kept looking around, as if she wanted to engrave everything in the carriage into her heart.

"Hey, look," she poked Li Jianghai, who was sleeping like a dead pig, lowering her voice but unable to conceal her excitement, "This carriage is almost entirely filled with students, all going to school. How great!"

Li Jianghai didn't respond at all, but he didn't mind and continued talking to himself!

While talking, she would occasionally lower her head to touch the packages under the seat!

These were the equipment she prepared for Li Mingli, tea eggs, meat sauce, and a new quilt. She touched them over and over again, fearing that they would be squeezed and damaged.

Her ears were also not idle, quietly perking up to catch the conversation of the people sitting next to her.

The young men wearing glasses were talking about "grammatical structure and cultural exchange" and the like, occasionally throwing in a few foreign words.

Although Li Guifang only partially understood what was being said, she felt it was extremely advanced. She couldn't help but lend one of her ears to the other!

She quietly looked at the people around her and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: The carriage that these intellectuals sit in is just different!

After the twelve-hour drive, Li Guifang didn't feel tired at all. Instead, she seemed to be injected with new energy.

Li Mingli looked at her mother's excited face and smiled secretly several times. This feels really good!

It was already early morning when the train blew a long whistle and slowly stopped at Jingshi Station.

The lights on the platform were dim, reflecting the figures coming and going, which looked extremely hurried!

The three of them dragged their luggage out of the station, and the cool night breeze blew in their faces.

Li Guifang tightened her collar and pointed to a small, lighted hotel across from the station: "That's it, we'll stay for the night."

The hotel receptionist was a yawning middle-aged woman. When Li Jianghai handed over the money, he couldn't help but smack his lips: "Wow, this price can cover half a month's stay here!"

He held the change in his hand and muttered, "Beijing is Beijing. Even sleeping is more expensive than elsewhere."

Li Guifang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Stop talking and hurry upstairs. You have to report to school tomorrow."

Having said that, she also secretly felt sorry for those few bills! How many kilograms of meat could they buy?

The worn wooden stairs creaked and a sour smell filled the room.

Li Mingli gently opened the window, looked at the dim lights in the distance, and suddenly whispered, "Mom, I will let you live in a better place in the future."

Li Jianghai was squatting on the ground packing his luggage. He looked up when he heard this. The dim light fell on his gray hair. "Silly girl, pack up and go to bed first!"
