After a while, Lu Yunsheng took Jiang Yan to eat, and the two soldiers followed them.
Jiang Yan was also familiar with these two young soldiers. They were the squad leader Gao Qingquan who had brought her to the military region before, and Meng Cheng, nicknamed Mengzi.
Entering the dining car, Jiang Yan went to the counter to order food. Behind the counter, a female staff member in uniform was recording the orders of other passengers.
After seeing the staff member's appearance clearly, Jiang Yan said in surprise, "Oh! Sister Guizhen, what a coincidence, we actually meet here."
Hearing someone calling her name, Li Guizhen raised her head and looked at the beautiful girl in front of her with a look of joy on her face.
"Hey, sister Jiang Yan! We are really destined to meet each other on the train again."
Li Guizhen was very happy to see Jiang Yan again, especially because Jiang Yan not only recognized her but also called out her name.
She could remember Jiang Yan because she was so beautiful, the most beautiful person she had ever met in her life, and she also had a good personality, and it was very pleasant to talk to her.
But she herself is different. She has an ordinary appearance and a low position, but Jiang Yan can remember her after just meeting her once. She really cares about her. It would be a lie for Li Guizhen to say that she was not touched.
"That's right." Jiang Yan was very curious and asked, "Sister Guizhen, why are you on this train?"
When they were on the train to Zhanchuan, Li Guizhen took special care of her and they got along pretty well. She is a very enthusiastic and kind sister.
"Hey, I was transferred here, so I guess it's a slight promotion."
"Congratulations!" Jiang Yan congratulated him, "This is a train that goes directly to Beijing. You never know when you'll meet a noble person. That would make you rich."
Li Guizhen chuckled, "That's right, I got this spot with great difficulty."
Congratulating again, Jiang Yan continued, "Sister Guizhen introduces you to my lover, Lu Yunsheng, the officer fiancé I mentioned to you before. We are married."
"Hello."
Lu Yunsheng nodded and greeted her. He didn't expect that his wife would be so popular on the train. It was really surprising. It seemed that they had a good relationship.
"Hello, hello."
Zhang Guizhen glanced at Lu Yunsheng and thought to herself: Wow, this young man is really energetic, not bad, not bad, and is a perfect match for my sister. She said that Jiang Yan is such a good and beautiful girl, she will definitely marry into a good family.
Lu Yunsheng was an officer, and he was followed by two guards. Li Guizhen was a little reserved. She looked at Jiang Yan and asked, "Sister, here is the menu. What do you want to eat? I recommend the sweet and sour pork ribs. The chef's cooking is very authentic and it's delicious."
"Then I want some sweet and sour pork ribs." Jiang Yan looked at the small blackboard hanging next to her and continued to order. "Another serving of shredded pork with fish sauce, a portion of stir-fried shredded potatoes, seaweed egg drop soup, and seven servings of rice."
Li Guizhen was surprised, "So much, can you finish it?"
Jiang Yan nodded, "They can finish it. They usually train a lot and have big appetites. I'm still worried that it won't be enough."
After ordering the dishes, Jiang Yan and Li Guizhen chatted for a few more words, then returned to the dining table to wait. Li Guizhen was working, so it was not convenient to disturb her.
Back at the table, Mengzi asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, do you know anyone in the railway system?"
"I met her on the train when I came to Zhanchuan. I didn't expect that Sister Guizhen had also been transferred."
Jiang Yan briefly explained the situation. The class monitor Gao Qingquan glanced at Lu Yunsheng, who was sitting opposite Jiang Yan, and saw him shaking his head slightly, so he didn't say much.
This older sister knew Jiang Yan, and coincidentally she was transferred to another job. It's hard not to suspect that she was a spy who deliberately approached Jiang Yan.
But Lu Yunsheng shook his head and told him to be patient and not to act rashly, as this man might not be a spy.
After a while, Li Guizhen came over with the food.
The seven servings of rice were served in bowls, and the rice in the bowls was very solid. Jiang Yan whispered to Li Guizhen, "Thank you, Sister Guizhen. Sorry for bothering you."
"Hey, you're welcome. We're friends."
Li Guizhen winked at Jiang Yan. This was naturally because she had a good relationship with Jiang Yan and she gave her a favor.
"Today's food is delicious. Eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good if it gets cold."
After putting down the meal, Li Guizhen went back to the counter, observing the passengers around her and waiting for the guests to greet her.
Jiang Yan and others also started eating.
In recent months, the Second Regiment has been slaughtering pigs every day, and the canteen has been preparing all kinds of meat in different ways. People are not as eager for meat as before, but they definitely still like it.
But it’s not like before, when his eyes would light up when he saw meat.
In the next few days, Gao Qingquan paid special attention to Li Guizhen, but found nothing unusual.
Three days later, the train arrived safely at its final destination, Beijing.
It snowed last night and the whole world turned white.
Jiang Yan put on a thick cotton jacket, cotton gloves on her hands, and a thick cotton hat with two big ears on her head.
Picking up their luggage, the group of four walked towards the platform outside the train.
On the platform, Lin Meixiang stood on tiptoe and kept looking around, while Zhang Wanxin, who was standing next to her, was also paying attention to the people getting on and off the train.
Suddenly, Zhang Wanxin became excited and pointed to the distance and said, "Mom, my uncle and my sister-in-law are back."
"Where? Where?"
Lin Meixiang hurriedly looked in the direction Zhang Wanxin pointed, and sure enough, she saw Lu Yunsheng and four others who had just got out of the car.
"Yunsheng, this way."
Lin Meixiang shouted and hurriedly pulled Zhang Wanxin to meet him.
It snowed heavily last night, and a thick layer of snow accumulated on the edge of the platform, like two neat silver edges drawn on the station.
"Wife, be careful with your steps. The ground is a bit slippery." After reminding Jiang Yan to be careful with her steps, Lu Yunsheng helped her get out of the car. Then he heard a familiar voice coming from a distance behind him.
Turning back, he was surprised and said quickly, "Mom, don't run. The ground is slippery."
Lin Meixiang hadn't seen her son for a long time and was a little excited, so she trotted over. Zhang Wanxin was held by her and looked helpless.
"Son, you're finally back. Come and let me see if you've lost weight."
Lin Meixiang carefully looked Lu Yunsheng up and down, then nodded with satisfaction, "Well, not bad, you look stronger than before."
Lu Yunsheng was also very happy.
He hadn't been home for two or three years. When he saw his mother and sister-in-law again, all his accumulated longing came flooding back.
Seeing their faces red from the cold, he said helplessly, "Mom, didn't you say you don't need to pick me up? Why did you come in person on such a cold day?"
"It's okay." Lin Meixiang waved her hand nonchalantly, "I just wanted to see you guys earlier. I'm free anyway."
Lin Meixiang looked at Jiang Yan next to Lu Yunsheng, and at the same time saw Gao Qingquan and the other person in casual clothes behind her. She was a little surprised. It was obvious from the way they stood that they were not ordinary people. How come they came back for the New Year with two soldiers?
Seeing Lin Meixiang looking over, Jiang Yan smiled and greeted, "Mom, sister-in-law."
