Chapter 89 Taking the Train to the Provincial Capital
It's a rare holiday, but the whole family got up earlier than usual.
Because they are going to the provincial capital tomorrow.
In order to catch the parade, I bought a train ticket for 1:00 a.m., hoping to arrive in the provincial capital in time for lunch.
Although they missed the morning parade, they still made it in time for the afternoon one. Anyway, they just went to watch the fun.
"I want one here too." After drawing the small national flag on his right hand, An An immediately extended his right hand.
Bai Ruoqiao took the chalk pen and quickly drew a standard little red flag on his left hand.
"alright."
"Wow, it's beautiful. Grandma's painting is really beautiful. It's even better than Aunt Meijuan's."
An An looked at the beautiful little red national flags on the back of her hands happily, and ran happily to her father.
"Dad, does it look good? Mom drew it!"
Zhao Sihai quickly took the porridge away and said, "Don't come over here, be careful."
An An obediently stood at a distance, but her little hands were still raised, her eyes shining, waiting for praise.
Zhao Sihai put the porridge on the table and said, "It looks good."
"I think it's beautiful, too, mom. You should draw a picture for me, too."
"Eat first, then paint." Bai Ruoqiao smiled, packed up the gouache box and put it aside, then took the warm porridge and put it in front of him.
Then she took out a plate of pickled cucumbers from the earthen jar.
Zhao Sihai also picked up a small plate of spicy and sour cabbage and crispy peanuts.
These were all made by Mrs. Xie herself.
The whole family thought the food tasted good, so Bai Ruoqiao got a few more sets of clothes to exchange with her.
A bowl of white porridge with a few plates of pickled vegetables in the morning is already a rich meal.
After eating, it was still dark outside.
Zhao Sihai rode a bicycle, Bai Ruoqiao carried a large briefcase, An An sat on the front bar, and the family went to the train station in the dark.
Fortunately, the train station has an entrance on the Qingyang County side. It only takes more than half an hour to ride a bike from here, so it’s still in time.
There were no pedestrians on the road at this time, and An An was holding a flashlight to illuminate the road ahead.
I was a little excited just now, but now I'm all scared and keep shrinking my body.
Looking at the flickering light of the flashlight in front, Bai Ruoqiao knew that her son was probably scared.
"An An, do you still remember the national anthem that your teacher taught you?"
An An blinked and was immediately distracted. She shouted crisply, "Remember!"
Then he began to sing softly, shaking his head.
Sometimes when I accidentally forgot the lyrics while singing, Bai Ruoqiao would take over.
Afterwards, Zhao Sihai couldn't help but hum along.
An An didn't stop shyly until she met a pedestrian.
But we were almost at the station now.
Maybe because that day was National Day, many people wanted to go to the provincial capital to join in the fun, so there were quite a lot of people going to the station.
"Wow, what a long train!" An An's eyes suddenly widened when he saw the long train.
For a moment, I forgot about my shyness and fear, and pointed at the train and shouted happily in surprise.
Bai Ruoqiao smiled and rubbed his little head, then put on the hood of his sweatshirt.
"Yes, this is a train. It has many carriages and can hold many people at once."
The three of them entered the carriage.
Zhao Sihai led the way in front holding An An, while Bai Ruoqiao followed behind holding the bag. After a lot of effort, they finally found a seat and sat down successfully.
As soon as An An sat down, she immediately leaned over to the window and looked out in surprise, "Mom, when will the car start?"
