On his way back, Gu Lingxiao sneezed three times in a row. He saw a red paper pasted on the window of the state-run restaurant, which said that they had donkey meat sandwiches and braised donkey meat.
You can eat other things all the time, but donkey meat is not something you can eat often. As the old saying goes, "Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground!"
So I decisively went in and bought some to eat on the train.
He had some bad luck buying tickets today. The person in front of him in line was also buying sleeper tickets, but when it was his turn, there were only two single tickets left. So he went to that person and made a private deal with him, and that's how he managed to get two tickets for the same sleeper berth.
Back at the hotel room door, I quickly straightened my clothes before knocking and pushing the door open.
When Lu Zhixia saw him return, she rubbed her eyes.
"Why did it take you so long?"
Gu Lingxiao put the paper bag on the table. "I went to queue up to buy tickets, and then I bought donkey meat sandwiches and two jin of braised donkey meat."
Upon hearing that it was donkey meat, Lu Zhixia immediately opened the bag. There were six donkey meat sandwiches and the rest were sliced braised donkey meat.
"How much will this cost?"
Gu Lingxiao thought about how much his wallet was empty, "Luckily, it's a rare opportunity, so it's okay to buy some and have it once in a while."
Lu Zhixia picked up a piece of donkey meat and tasted it. It tasted quite good, so she picked up another piece and put it in front of his mouth.
"Try it."
Gu Lingxiao decisively opened his mouth, the taste of donkey meat lingering between his lips and teeth, and Lu Zhixia's smile touched his heart!
Therefore, he considered this piece of donkey meat to be the most delicious food in the world.
Lu Zhixia retied the paper bag and put it back into her luggage bag.
"Shall we set off now?"
"Yes, then walk to the train station and wait for about ten minutes before boarding the train."
"Okay, let's take our luggage downstairs." Lu Zhixia tied her hair up again.
Then, after Gu Lingxiao went back to his room to get his luggage bag, they went downstairs together to check out.
When I arrived at the train station waiting room, I had just found a place to sit down when the train arrived at the station a few minutes later.
So they lined up to have their tickets checked and boarded the train, and with their previous experience, they quickly found their carriage.
Lu Zhixia took out the prepared toilet paper, wiped everything down, and then sat down.
The carriage was relatively quiet this time; only the two of them had arrived first, and the upper berths were still empty.
Lu Zhixia tidied up the bed, went to the bathroom, and then lay down in bed to read the newspaper to relax.
Gu Lingxiao then took the newspapers she had bought to the table and categorized them. Since they were reading different things, categorizing them would prevent them from picking the wrong ones.
——
Cai Wei took the fruit she bought to the Lin family's house and found that they were celebrating a birthday. Lin Yueru was wearing a fashionable dress and looked very poised. Where was the little girl she used to be?
Lin Yueru was incredibly enthusiastic when she saw Gu Lingxiao's mother. After greeting her, she pulled her to sit down next to her.
"Auntie, you're getting younger and younger. I almost didn't recognize you just now."
Cai Wei subconsciously touched the white hair on her head.
"You have such a sweet tongue! My hair is all white now, I'm not young anymore!"
Lin Yueru said enthusiastically, "But you look young! Everyone has gray hair, I have two on my head too!"
Cai Wei became more and more satisfied with her daughter-in-law as she looked at her. She noticed that the other guests had all left, leaving only the Lin family members.
She then said to Lao Lin, "I mentioned it to Lao Gu last night, and he agreed!"
Lin Hongzhi didn't react at first, and it took him a few seconds to understand what those words meant.
"That's wonderful! If we become in-laws, it will be so much easier for us to visit each other!"
Lin Yueru instantly understood what they were talking about, and lowered her head shyly. She had liked the Gu brothers since she was a child.
Actually, I liked the older brother more, but it's a pity that he was unlucky and died in a car accident.
Then, Gu Lingxiao chose to join the army, and they hadn't seen each other for five or six years.
Considering that the two brothers look exactly alike, I guess Gu Lingxiao must be quite good-looking now.
If I could marry him, it would fulfill my girlish dream.
Lin Hongzhi thought that he could become related to the Gu family through marriage, which would be beneficial for his son's future development. They would go into business, and the Gu family would go into politics; it would be the perfect combination.
If anything happens in the future, it's just a matter of giving them a heads-up!
Lin Yueru used her words to make Cai Wei laugh heartily, and she left with a smile on her face.
After seeing the person off, the father and daughter sat in the living room.
Lin Yueru proactively poured her father a cup of tea.
"Thank you, Dad!"
Lin Hongzhi found the tea his daughter poured fragrant, but then he thought about the person his daughter had arranged to work at the factory. That person was really not very good, so he said...
"That guy surnamed Song is no good at work. Don't send people like him to the factory anymore. I'll fire him when this month's work period is over!"
Lin Yueru, feeling a pang of sympathy, thought of Song Weidong and his child, all alone and helpless, and felt quite distressed. So she said, "Dad, give him another two months. He's a man destined for great things. Don't make him work; let him give you advice or something!"
Lin Hongzhi felt that his daughter hadn't been persistent enough, and had even said such childish things.
"He's no good. I've observed him secretly; he's a lazy and slacker. People like that are unlikely to amount to anything! Besides, his eyes have a gloomy look, but I always feel like he's capable of something!"
Lin Yueru's face fell. "Dad, the chemical plant isn't your factory. Why are you so worried? Just let him earn a salary so he can support the child."
Lin Hongzhi pointed at his daughter and said, "You're still too naive. How could someone like him be deceived by a woman? Don't just listen to his side of the story. You need to understand things better."
