Chapter 10 Arriving in Beijing
The following time in the car passed peacefully and calmly, and Xiuzhu and Gu Yu became more familiar with each other.
When I encounter something I don’t understand in my summer homework, I will come to him for help.
Gu Yu was also patient with her, had a very gentle attitude, and would analyze and explain step by step.
Xiuzhu wrote along her train of thought and felt that she had become smarter.
Three days passed in a flash.
The train slowly pulled into the platform, and the friction between the wheels and the rails was particularly clear in the quiet air.
The four people in the box began to pack their luggage and prepare to get off the bus.
Gu Yu felt a wave of reluctance to part, and seeing Xiuzhu waiting expectantly to get off the bus, he felt even more suffocated and unwilling.
With an idea in mind, he said softly, "I know a lot of fun and delicious places in Jing City. You can bring your family with you. It will be more lively with more people."
In just two days, he has learned about Xiuzhu's preferences: love of beauty, love of playing, and love of sweets.
After all, she is really easy to understand. When you mention something that interests her, her eyes light up.
As expected, Xiuzhu was very excited and quickly replied, "Okay."
She already regarded him as an elder like Yan Ming.
Thinking that he would be staying in Beijing for a while and his cousin would be busy with her wedding, he unguardedly provided his uncle's phone number and address.
My uncle lives in the Beijing Military District compound, so it is very convenient to make and receive phone calls.
Gu Yu counted and found that nothing was missing.
He stood up, picked up his luggage, said goodbye to Xiuzhu and the others, and followed the crowd towards the station exit.
The moment you walk out of the station.
He looked back in Xiuzhu's direction and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.
"Deputy Director Gu, what are you looking at? Do you need my help?" the person who picked him up said respectfully.
"It's okay, let's go." He withdrew his gaze and returned to his original lazy and distant state.
The driver quickly took the suitcase, opened the door, and drove away.

After parting with Gu Yu, Chen Yuling glared at Xiuzhu with resentment, then walked away quickly, eventually disappearing in the bustling crowd.
Xiuzhu felt that this person was really weird. After the human trafficking incident subsided, he had almost no presence.
But whenever he gets the chance, he will look at her with sinister eyes. Fortunately, he won't have to see her anymore in the future, otherwise seeing her too much will affect her appetite.
…
"Xiuzhu, Lin Xiuzhu, we are here."
Lin Yaowen stood on tiptoe and waved his arms at the same time as Lin Xiuli beside him, shouting Xiuzhu's name excitedly.
When Xiuzhu saw a familiar figure in the crowd, a surprised smile appeared on her face and she quickened her pace and walked towards them.
"Hello, Brother Yan Ming, thank you for taking care of Xiuzhu along the way!"
"Hello, Uncle Yan."
Two clear and pleasant sounds of joy were heard.
"Hey, hello, it's not hard at all."
"Oh, it's been so fast. You've all grown up so fast."
"By the way, congratulations to you, Xiu Li. Happy wedding, and may you have a baby soon."
"Brother Yan has something else to do, so he can't make it to your wedding!" Yan Ming was very happy to see an acquaintance and kept talking about it.
When he came to Beijing, Lin's father also gave him some other work.
Lin Xiuli blushed after hearing the blessing and replied shyly, "It's okay, Brother Yan. Work is more important. Please be safe."
They often went to their uncle's house in Yucheng to spend holidays. They were very familiar with Yan Ming and understood his character.
Xiuli is older, so she addresses herself differently from Xiuzhu and Yaowen.
She turned her head to Xiuzhu again, and looked at her with her bright big eyes, nodding pretentiously.
Her pretty face showed a look of relief that her daughter had grown up.
Jokingly, "Long time no see, Xiuzhu, you have become so beautiful. You have really grown into a big girl. I almost couldn't recognize you!"
Xiuzhu was immersed in the double sweetness of seeing her cousin and being praised.
Before she could even open her mouth to speak, she was interrupted by the still annoying brat next to her.
"Lin Xiuzhu, why haven't you grown in the past two years? Look, I'm already taller than you."
Lin Yaowen slyly gestured with his hand to show the height difference between him and Xiuzhu.
How can she not grow taller? She is 3 cm taller than two years ago and is already 165 cm tall.
She is already tall among girls of the same age, and she is still in her growth spurt!
However, compared to his cousin Awen, he is indeed growing slowly. He is now 180cm tall at the age of 18, which is more than ten centimeters taller than two years ago.
They are of similar age, and she was always taller when they were young.
But two years ago, his height suddenly increased, and now when the two of them stand together, he is half a head taller than Xiuzhu.
"You stinky Awen, you are still so disrespectful. You have to call me sister. No matter how tall you are, it can't change the fact that I was born one day earlier than you."
Xiuzhu glared at him and said, "I can't cure you, you little bastard."
Your sister is still your sister, she can kill anyone in a second.
Xiu Li looked at them and they started teasing each other as soon as they met. They have been like this since they were young.
But the two of them have the closest relationship, and this kind of finding fault with each other is their normal way of getting along.
Afraid that the two of them would keep quarreling and delay lunch time, her mother took half a day off today and was waiting at home, trying to change the subject as soon as possible.
"Xiuzhu, you must be hungry after sitting on the train for such a long time. Your aunt asked someone to exchange tickets and buy food this morning.
Before Awen and I went out, we looked and saw roast duck, pork ribs stewed with sauerkraut, and braised pork slices. Let's go back quickly. ”
Lin's mother is from Hangzhou, and her taste is similar to Shanghai cuisine. Xiuzhu hasn't eaten these northern dishes for a long time, so she couldn't help swallowing when she heard it.
Lin Yaowen also felt greedy after hearing this, so the two of them stopped bickering. After all, this was something they could only eat during festivals.
After taking the suitcase from Yan Ming, the few people said goodbye to him and hurried to the bus stop to catch the bus home.
Xiu Li looked at the two people running in front of her speechlessly, trying to see who could run faster.
I couldn't help but sigh, they are really two children who have not grown up!
After catching the bus, the three of them found a seat in the back row and sat down. Xiuzhu looked out the window at the streets of Beijing with curiosity.
"Xiuzhu, look to the left. That's the newly opened department store. There are many fashionable goods from Hong Kong, all kinds of fashion. I'll take you there someday."
Xiuli pointed to the front left and explained to her excitedly.
Xiuzhu looked over there. She had heard about how great the department store in Beijing was, and she was looking forward to it very much.
But now she felt like she was going to go bad. How could she feel good after being on the train for two or three days in the hot summer?
The first thing to do is to get home and take a shower.
Thinking about it, he asked Xiu Li: "Sister, can we take a shower before eating when we get home? I am going to stink."
"Hehe, my sister had guessed that you were feeling uncomfortable on the train, so she asked me to prepare your bath water in advance," Yao Wen rushed to answer as if to take credit.
Xiuzhu raised her hand and looked at Lin Yaowen with a sly smile: "Yes, I am so lucky to have the best sister and brother in the world. Come here and let your cousin pat your head."
As expected, Yao Wen's face turned red, like a chicken with its feathers blown off.
I quickly dodged and shouted, "How did you become so cheesy? I can't stand you."
"Ha ha ha ha"
The cheers and noise filled the entire carriage, causing other passengers to look back frequently.
When Xiuli saw her brother's embarrassed and shy look, she also changed her usual dignified demeanor.
I held my stomach with both hands until I laughed so hard that I got a stitch in the side. I forced myself to think about sad things, and only then did the pain stop.
The three of them laughed and joked, and soon arrived at the West City Military District compound.
