Chapter 24 Going to the Northwest (1/2)



A few days later, it was early October. The Northeast Military Region finally received the official letter to send Ruibao to the Northwest, which also allowed him to show his face in front of the leaders of the Lufeng Army.

The official letter required Deputy Battalion Commander Lu Fengji of the Second Battalion of the First Regiment of the Second Division of the Northeast Military Region and his wife to send Ruibao to the Northwest Special Research Institute.

The next day after receiving the official letter, Lu Feng took Liu Shuning and Ruibao and left the Northeast by car.

There is no direct train from Harbin to Gansu Province, so they have to go to Beijing and then transfer.

It took more than a month to come and go, and by the time they arrived, the mountain had been blocked by heavy snow.

As soon as they got on the train, they met the conductor they met last time in the Northeast.

"Lu Zhizhi, are you sending your child to Beijing?"

"No, Ruibao's father called and asked me to send the child to them." As for where to send the child, Lu Fengji did not say.

After all, Ruibao's parents work for a confidential unit, and all their addresses are confidential.

"Oh, it's not convenient for you to bring a child with you. How about I help you change to a sleeper berth?"

The tickets for that day's train were completely sold out, and the conductor saw that Lu Feng and his friends had failed to buy sleeper tickets and offered to help.

"Will this put you in a difficult position?" Liu Shuning's eyes lit up when she heard that she could exchange tickets. It would take almost seven days and seven nights to travel from Harbin to Beijing, and she suspected her waist would break after sitting all the way there.

"No, we still have some soft sleeper tickets on the train, and these tickets are usually not sold to the public. I'll take you there first, and you can ask the conductor to pay for the tickets later."

Now the hard sleeper car was full, so he could only arrange Lu Feng and the others to stay in the soft sleeper car.

Liu Shuning glanced at Lu Feng and saw him nod. Then he carried Ruibao and walked away with the flight attendant.

The soft sleeper car was located at the front of the train, and there was a crew room between it and the other cars. Without the guidance of the train police, Liu Shuning and her companions could not enter this place.

After the flight attendant left, Liu Shuning quickly put Ruibao on the bed and she lay down on it.

This soft sleeper is really comfortable. There are only two beds in one compartment, and the door can be closed when not in use.

Although soft sleeper tickets are much more expensive, there are toilets and hot water rooms outside the carriages, so you don’t have to go far to get water or go to the toilet.

Liu Shuning had plenty of money, and she wished she could ride in a sleeper berth every time she went out. Unfortunately, she didn't even have the qualifications to buy one.

She could only place her hope on Lu Fengji. As long as he made more contributions, he would be promoted to the position of major general as soon as possible.

"Wife, why are you looking at me like that?" Lu Feng always felt that his wife's eyes were strange, and he didn't know what was thinking in her little head.

"Nothing, I just think the soft sleeper car is very comfortable, much better than the ticket car." Liu Shuning didn't have the nerve to say what she was thinking, she still had her dignity!

"Then next time we go back to my hometown, I will go to my leader and ask him to help get two soft sleeper tickets." Lu Feng said that he is not eligible to buy soft sleeper tickets now, but his old leader can!

"Okay. By the way, where is your hometown?" Liu Shuning was from Guangdong in her previous life. According to her understanding, everything north of Guangdong is the North.

She didn't know which provinces the Northeast was made up of, so she really didn't know where in the Northeast Lu Feng was from.

"My hometown is Heihe, which is the border."

"I heard that it's the coldest place in the country. I don't want to go to your house in winter." Liu Shuning is most afraid of the cold. It's only October now and she feels cold, not to mention when the mountain is closed due to heavy snow.

"I just took a leave a while ago. Can you imagine that I didn't have any leave before? And it's snowing there now."

Lu Feng wanted to laugh when he saw Liu Shuning frowning. His wife was so cute.

"It's snowing so soon, and it's only autumn in Shanghai." If you were in Guangdong Province, you'd probably still be wearing short sleeves!

"It's going to snow in Harbin soon. I don't know if we'll run into a snowstorm and the mountains will be closed when we get here."
