The middle-aged man put the unfinished porridge on the small table beside him, and seemed to want to talk to Hu Lin.
"Visiting relatives, what about you?" Although it was a mistake, Hu Lin still looked calm and composed.
"I'm going to report on my work." The middle-aged man answered with a smile in his eyes.
Hu Lin was a little surprised. He didn't expect him to be so honest.
She nodded, "You should eat first.
If you keep talking to me, your students’ eyes will be welded to me. ”
The middle-aged man looked at Hu Lin who turned around and left, lowered his head and laughed, then continued to eat his porridge, which made the student sitting next to his bed feel embarrassed.
The roads were slippery due to the snow, and so were the railroad tracks. There was even ice in some places, so we were not driving very fast all the way.
Hu Lin was not sure how long it took, but she knew that she spent two nights in the car.
On the afternoon of the third day, the train finally arrived in Beijing.
Seeing the words "Beijing Platform", Hu Lin felt relieved.
The hard seat made her feel like she was being tortured these past two days.
It was visibly that they looked a little haggard.
It took four days and three nights to get from Xiaohe Village to the capital, which was really a torture.
I don’t know whether Hu Jun received the letter, as she sent it as an expedited letter from the county town.
Hu Lin, Uncle Yuan, and his students and colleagues got off the bus together.
On the train, Hu Lin chatted with Uncle Yuan and the time passed easily.
Uncle Yuan and others were particularly shocked by the fact that Hu Lin could read. Before getting off the bus, Uncle Yuan wrote down her contact address and phone number.
The group got off the bus, and in the crowded crowd, Uncle Yuan said to Hu Lin: "When you settle down, remember to contact me.
I will be in Beijing this winter. Come and visit me often. I will also treat you to a meal! ”
"I understand." Hu Lin nodded and said goodbye to Uncle Yuan and his group.
Not long after they separated, Hu Lin saw a few people in Zhongshan suits chatting and laughing with Uncle Yuan in the crowd, and there were a few armed sentries standing guard beside them.
Hu Lin took a look and then looked away, walking out of the station.
Outside the station, Hu Lin saw a paper sign with her name held high among the crowd.
When Hu Lin looked at the name, a feeling of shame came over him.
She walked quickly towards Hu Jun.
However, this method is very common nowadays.
As he got closer, Hu Jun saw Hu Lin, who was wearing a plain cotton jacket and carrying a backpack, walking towards him.
In the vast sea of people, Hu Lin, who is not white, is still the most eye-catching person in the crowd.
He immediately put down the card and walked towards Hu Lin with a bright smile on his face.
"Luckily I received the letter this morning, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come pick you up in time."
The big military cap that Hu Jun wore covered his ears and had a rope tied at his chin, so that his entire head was warm.
He wore a beige scarf around his neck, army green full-coverage gloves on his hands, a thick military coat on the outside, a military casual-style jacket on the inside, and a pair of suede shoes on his feet.
If you didn't know where he came from, you'd tell at first glance that he's a city dweller.
"You're doing pretty well in the capital!" Hu Lin joked.
The snow was still falling overhead, but it was lighter this time. Hu Jun opened his umbrella and covered Hu Lin with it.
"You can study and work at the same time, and you can get some wages every month."
After Hu Jun explained, he said,
"Come on, I'll take you to my teacher's house."
The two left the train station and took the bus.
"Are you living at your teacher's house now?" Hu Lin asked while waiting for the bus.
“Yes, the teacher and his wife live together, but their children don’t live with them.
I am not considered a formal staff member now, and I cannot get a dormitory, so I can only live in my teacher's house. ”
Hu Jun explained that when he saw the bus coming, Hu Jun led Hu Lin on the bus and paid the fare.
"My master's wife knew you were coming to see me, so she took a day off today to welcome you.
After dinner, I will take you to a nearby hotel to check in. ”
Hu Jun was talking about his plans, and when Hu Lin nodded, he continued, "How long will you stay this time?"
"It depends on the situation. I have issued two letters of introduction. The longest you can stay is half a year."
There were many people in the car, so Hu Jun understood what Hu Lin said even though he didn't elaborate.
What Hu Lin meant was that he would wait until things were settled before leaving.
"We're going to take the subway later. How much do you know about the teacher's quotation?
The subway was opened only at the beginning of this year, and passengers need to recite quotations before they can buy tickets and board the train. ”
Hu Jun moved closer to Hu Lin and asked in a low voice.
When Hu Lin heard this, he raised his eyebrows and was a little surprised. "I know something. Tell me more."
She didn't expect that there would be a subway at this time.
The capital city is indeed the fastest developing place.
Along the way, Hu Jun and Hu Lin recited the quotations, and Hu Lin memorized them in his heart.
When they arrived at the subway station, Hu Jun got off the train and took Hu Lin into the station to take the subway.
After reciting quotations and checking letters of introduction, we were allowed to buy tickets and get on the bus.
The subway at that time was very simple.
