It’s better in later times. There are direct trains from Northeast China to Gansu Province, so there is no need to transfer to Beijing and then to Gansu Province.
The environment in Gansu Province is even worse than that in the Northeast, with the sky full of yellow sand.
As soon as he walked out of the train station, Liu Shuning saw a man holding a sign.
"Lu Fengnian, take a look at what's written on that sign?"
Lu Fengnian is a head taller than Liu Shuning. The sign that Liu Shuning couldn't see while standing on tiptoe, he could see clearly when he stood up straight.
"That should be the person Ruibao's father sent to pick us up."
"Then let's go find him quickly."
Liu Shuning, holding Ruibao, followed Lu Fengnian, squeezed through the crowd and came to the man.
"Hello, are you the one that Ruibao's father arranged to pick us up?"
"Hello? You must be Deputy Battalion Commander Lu! I'm Chief Engineer Hu's assistant. Just call me Xiao Yang."
Xiao Yang looked at Ruibao curiously. This must be Mr. Hu’s son. He looks quite cute.
"Engineer Yang, you are too modest." Lu Fengnian stepped forward and shook hands with Xiao Yang. No matter what, the assistant to the chief engineer is still an engineer. How could he have the nerve to call him Xiao Yang?
"Let's get in the car first. Chief Engineer Hu has already arranged a guesthouse for you. He can't leave these two days, so I'm afraid you'll need to wait here for two days."
It is not convenient to bring outsiders into the research institute, so they can only be accommodated in the guesthouse.
"It's okay, you guys just go ahead and do your things." Liu Shuning had originally planned to stay in Gansu Province for a few days, and she had to find a way to donate her seeds and books on sand control.
Xiao Yang sent Liu Shuning and his group to the guesthouse and left. The research institute was very busy. He worked overtime for several days in a row, so he could only spare half a day to come out and pick them up.
The northwest is so poor that mud houses are everywhere. The guesthouse they stayed in was similar to other houses, also mud houses, but just a little bigger than other houses.
Lu Fengnian had been to the northwest before on a mission, and he could barely adapt to the environment here. What worried him was Liu Shuning, who grew up in Shanghai, and he wondered if she could get used to living in a mud house.
"Wife, all houses in the Northwest are like this, don't be disgusted."
"It's just a few days, so why shouldn't I be uncomfortable?" Liu Shuning couldn't help rolling his eyes. He was only staying here for a few days, but it seemed like he was going to live here forever.
But it is true that she needs to apply more Snow Muscle Cream in the morning and evening. This part is really too dry and her face is starting to feel tight.
"That's good. It's not time for dinner yet, why don't you go wash up first. There's a lack of water here, so I'm afraid you can only wet a towel and wipe your body."
"Well, take Ruibao out for a walk, I'll go get some water and come back to wash up."
Xiao Yang only booked one room for them, and the three of them had to stay together that night.
Fortunately, there were two beds in the room, otherwise they would have to share two beds that night.
"Okay, I'll take Ruibao to the shopping mall and buy lunch later."
Lu Fengnian suddenly thought that they would share a room that night, and his face turned red.
They have been married for so long, but they still sleep in their own room! After returning to the Northeast, without Ruibao as a light bulb, I wonder if my wife can let him sleep in his room.
