Gu Qingmeng finally persuaded the person to get off before the train started.
The train slowly started moving. What was Gu Jun still shouting? He ran after the train, waving at her and wiping away tears whenever he had a chance.
This scene was a bit outrageous and funny. From this moment on, she vowed to take care of the Gu family as real relatives. Gu Qingmeng wiped away her tears and did not look away until she could no longer see the Beijing station.
"Little girl, your family treats you very well."
There aren’t many families that treat their girls so well these days!
Gu Qingmeng turned around and found that there were already two people in the lower bunk. One of them was a man in his forties or fifties. He was the one who had just spoken. He was wearing a Zhongshan suit and his aura showed that he was a leader.
The other man was with him. He was a young man in his twenties on the lower bunk opposite him. He should be a secretary or something. He had a pen on his chest, and it was obvious that his family was well-off.
Very good, it seems that there will be no problem with the fire. It depends on who is on the bed opposite?
"Well, my family is very good to me."
Gu Qingmeng climbed to the upper bunk with a nasal tone. A bed sheet had already been laid out on the bed. The original owner had a bit of mysophobia like herself. The bed sheet was specially prepared by her stepmother Tian Liping. There were also clothes in the bag. She could just cover herself with clothes when sleeping at night. She didn't want to touch the quilt on the train.
I took out the cloth bag given by my eldest and second uncles. In addition to dumplings and pies, there were also some cakes and candies. They were all placed in a military water bottle filled with prepared milk powder and malted milk.
Including the water bottle she brought from home, she has three military water bottles by herself. Isn't that a bit extravagant?
They took out the dumplings and quickly finished their first meal on the train. At noon and in the evening, the lunch boxes were sent by her father's comrades, who didn't charge Gu Qingmeng for them, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
She always felt like she owed someone something, so in the evening she gave away half of the pie her second aunt had baked, and told Uncle Zhang that she planned to go to the train restaurant for dinner tomorrow to stretch her muscles.
The two times she delivered meals also let the train attendants know that she was the descendant of the conductor's family. They took extra care of her every time they patrolled the carriage and asked her eight times if she wanted to drink hot water.
Gu Qingmeng didn't know that the young conductor who asked her if she wanted some hot water was attracted to her, but under her psychotic look, her passionate heart turned cold in one day.
You can’t blame Gu Qingmeng for thinking the man is crazy. After all, who would drink hot water from a teacup in July?
Of course, this does not include the old cadres in the lower bunk.
At night, just as Gu Qingmeng was about to put on her earplugs and go to sleep, she heard the young man in the lower bunk say, "Boss, my bed is cleaner. Please sleep in this bed."
"Haha! No need, isn't it just that the feet of the last person who occupied this bed smelled a little? Why would you be so particular when you're away from home? Besides, I was used to the smell when I was in the army, so I don't need to change. You can sleep in yours."
Gu Qingmeng: She just said that Gu Jun’s feet smelled!
Gu Qingmeng put on her earplugs silently and fell asleep with a smile on her face.
The night was peaceful and calm.
When she woke up, she was woken up by the uncle in the lower bunk. Gu Qingmeng quickly took off her earplugs and held them in her hand.
"Uncle, what's the matter?"
"Haha! Girl, it's time to go to the dining car for breakfast, otherwise you won't be able to eat!" The man said with a smile.
Looking at the little girl's dazed look, he was reminded of his little daughter at home, who stayed in bed every day and ate breakfast for lunch.
"Uh...thank you, uncle!" Gu Qingmeng looked at her watch and hurriedly thanked him. She didn't expect that she slept until after seven o'clock.
She quickly tidied herself up and climbed out of bed. Seeing that the two people in the lower bunk had already started eating, she asked the uncle to look after her luggage and went to wash up.
Gu Qingmeng didn't have much luggage, just a few pieces of clothes and some snacks. The money and bills were all placed in the space.
After washing up, Gu Qingmeng rushed to the restaurant. It was a beautiful thought, but the reality was very disappointing. The dining car was at the front of the train and the sleeper car was at the rear. Crossing a train was like crossing mountains and hills.
By the time Gu Qingmeng arrived at the dining car, sweating profusely, it was already past eight o'clock and there were not many people there.
There is not much food left. I bought two eggs and a vegetarian bun, but the porridge and side dishes are gone. It seems I have to go earlier next time.
"Mengmeng, eat with Uncle Zhang later. Next time you want to come to the restaurant for dinner, you have to come early."
When Zhang Guohua walked into the restaurant, he saw his comrade's daughter looking at the buns in her hand pitifully. The staff in the dining car took the buns and asked to heat them up, and even gave her a bowl of porridge. Gu Qingmeng couldn't help but sigh that it was still easy to get things done with someone!
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang! I got up late, I'll come over early at noon."
Gu Qingmeng sat next to Uncle Zhang feeling a little embarrassed and nodded to the train attendants next to him as a greeting.
"Lao Zhang, is this your young man? He's so handsome, he must be from a different family. What do you think of my Xie Chang?"
The man who spoke was wearing work clothes and a towel around his neck. How could he put it? The towel was so pale it couldn't even be seen. Gu Qingmeng guessed that this was someone who worked on the locomotive. Nowadays, trains are still steam-powered and burn coal.
Only people who work on locomotives would make it so dirty!
"How can you say that, Old Xie? This is the child of my comrade-in-arms. Your Xie Chang is not worthy of him."
Zhang Guohua smiled and dismissed the topic. Anyone could covet the Gu family's daughter. If it weren't for the special circumstances of the year, how could this girl have endured the hardships of being sent to the countryside? Wouldn't she have been kept in seclusion, treated like a precious treasure? How could anyone see her?
"Mengmeng, they are just joking. Don't pay attention to them. Go back and rest early after eating. This is the address of Uncle Zhang's house. Come and play when you are free. If you need anything, call Uncle Zhang. My house is not far from where you are in the countryside."
Zhang Guohua tore off a piece of paper with his home address and phone number written on it. It was not because he had any selfish motives, but because the Gu family was powerful. It was rare for a girl from the Gu family to go to the countryside in Northeast China, so he had to take good care of her. In the future, when his son went to the army, Gu Jun would have to help take care of him.
With Gu Jun's care, his son could have served in the army for at least ten years less.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang! I'll go back after I finish eating. You can enjoy your meal."
Gu Qingmeng took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth. She could see the glint in the man's eyes. She took the address from him and walked out of the dining car. This is how human interactions are. They are all profitable. How can there be any good things without reason? Except for best friends.
Gu Qing had experience crossing the carriage again, so he followed the strong man.
Suddenly, I saw a thin, fair-skinned girl with tears on her face holding a black steamed bun, looking like she was going to die heroically. I couldn't help but laugh, but at the same time I was curious about what this bun was made of?
The fact that this thing made the girl look like this shows how unpalatable it is.
She is very curious. If something tastes good, she wants to try it. She also wants to try it if it tastes bad.
When she saw the girl holding up the steamed bun with her thumb and index finger and pointing her little finger to the sky, Gu Qingmeng couldn't laugh anymore. This was...
Isn’t this the habit of besties when eating?
I don't know how many times I have corrected her about her habit of pointing her little finger upwards when eating, but she just can't change it.
