Chapter 326 I Want to Take Care of My Cabbage
“Woo…”
At Changfeng County Railway Station, with a whistle, a green train slowly approached from a distance.
It was already daybreak, and more people were starting to appear around the train station selling peanuts or boiled eggs.
Most of these people carry a basket and sell their cooked food to tourists.
In the past, this phenomenon was rare, but it has started to increase in recent times.
People carrying large and small bags began to walk out of the train.
Some people also started to board the train, but Changfeng County was a small station after all, and there were not many passengers getting on and off.
As the last pedestrian walked down, Cheng Jiadong sighed.
Cheng Xuyuan hasn't gotten off yet, so it seems that he is not on this bus.
In the past, there was only one train from Yanjing. In the summer, it increased to two. Some time ago, another train was added...
Just as all kinds of thoughts were surging in Cheng Jiadong's head, he heard someone say, "Old Cheng, why are you here?"
Hearing the greeting, Cheng Jiadong turned around and saw Feng Chenggang standing behind him.
Cheng Jiadong has always been very respectful to this very famous person in the county.
He smiled and said, "I'm here to pick up Cheng Xuyuan. He wrote a letter two days ago saying he would be home in the next two days."
As he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Feng Chenggang.
"The train just now didn't come from Yanjing." Feng Chenggang did not refuse Cheng Jiadong's cigarette. After taking it and lighting it, he handed the lighter to Cheng Jiadong.
Hearing Feng Chenggang say this, Cheng Jiadong smiled and said, "I was wondering why he hadn't come yet. I was wondering if he got on the wrong bus."
"Are you here to pick up your daughter?"
Feng Chenggang said: "My daughter should also be on this train."
Didn't they both come back on the same trip?
Cheng Jiadong wanted to say this, but swallowed it back in the end.
Although his wife has always wanted to bring Cheng Xuyuan and Feng Xiaoxia together, Cheng Xuyuan made it clear during this summer vacation that he already has a partner.
The target is from Yenching University!
Ever since this incident, although her wife still had some concerns about it, she never mentioned it again.
"It's so cold today!" Cheng Jiadong wrapped himself in his coat and shivered as he sighed.
Feng Chenggang was also unwilling to talk about the topic of his precious daughter and Cheng Xuyuan. After all, Cheng Xuyuan might not even be able to get a divorce, and he didn't want his daughter to be entangled too much with Cheng Xuyuan.
Of course, Cheng Xuyuan's fame has increased a lot out of thin air.
In the broadcast last night, Cheng Xuyuan won some American novel award...
"That's right. I heard that the temperature during this year's New Year's Day is even colder than last year!"
While the two people were having a casual conversation, another train came.
As the train stopped, Feng Chenggang quickly saw Feng Xiaoxia in the crowd, who was carrying a shoulder bag and a canvas bag in her hands.
Seeing his daughter coming back, Feng Chenggang immediately smiled.
He said to Cheng Jiadong, "Old Cheng, I'm going to pick up the kids."
As he spoke, he walked over quickly without waiting for Cheng Jiadong to react.
Cheng Jiadong also looked in the direction of Feng Xiaoxia.
If two people take the same train, will they come back together?
Just when he was still thinking about how he should talk to Feng Chenggang if the two of them came back together, he found that there was a young girl following Feng Xiaoxia.
The girl was not very pretty, but standing next to Feng Xiaoxia, she gave people a vibrant feeling.
The two girls came together, but Cheng Xuyuan did not come back with them.
As he was searching around, he saw a young man in the front carriage of the train throwing something onto the platform.
In just a short while, several large bags were thrown away.
He looked carefully and saw that it was Cheng Xuyuan.
Cheng Xu was far away at the front of the train because he was sitting in a sleeper berth.
Cheng Jiadong did not hesitate and quickly rushed to Cheng Xuyuan and helped Cheng Xuyuan organize the small pile of luggage.
"Xuyuan, how did you get so many things?"
Cheng Jiadong came to pick up Cheng Xuyuan, still riding his bicycle.
Originally, Cheng Jiadong thought that a bicycle alone was enough.
But now, he realized that a bicycle simply could not carry so many things.
Cheng Xuyuan was also helpless.
He and Fang Yuqing had already bought a lot of things at the Friendship Store, and when they got in the car, Qin Wenhui also carried two more cardboard boxes.
One box contained apples, and the other box contained frozen hairtail packed in plastic bags.
He got this from somewhere else through the connections in a foreign trade company, and asked Cheng Xuyuan to bring it back for his family to try.
Faced with such enthusiasm, Cheng Xuyuan had no choice but to accept it with a smile.
Fortunately, he was sitting in a sleeper car, and there was enough space in the carriage to store things, so he didn't encounter any difficulties.
But how to get these things back home after getting off the train becomes a problem.
"Uncle, it's Chinese New Year, I bought too much." Cheng Xuyuan said casually: "Let's see how to get rid of these things."
Cheng Jiadong said: "My bicycle may not work."
"How about this, I have an acquaintance near the train station, I can use their trolley..."
Before Cheng Jiadong could finish, Feng Xiaoxia came over and said to Cheng Xuyuan, "Cheng Xuyuan, you also came back on this train?"
"Feng Xiaoxia, what a coincidence, I didn't know you were also taking this train." Cheng Xuyuan was also surprised to see Feng Xiaoxia, and greeted her with a smile.
As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan said to Feng Chenggang and Wu Xiaoli, "Hello, Uncle Feng, hello, Wu Xiaoli."
Feng Chenggang nodded lightly to Cheng Xuyuan as a response.
He had always been full of resentment towards Cheng Xuyuan, so naturally he was not willing to pay attention to him.
Wu Xiaoli waved enthusiastically at Cheng Xuyuan and said, "Cheng Xuyuan, why are you back?"
"I heard that you'll be busy for a while since you won the short story award in the United States. I heard that reporters blocked the entrance to your school yesterday!"
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated. Some reporters came to interview me. However, this can't delay my return home."
"If I had known you would come back yesterday, we would have gone back together so that you would have had company." Since going to college, Wu Xiaoli has become much more lively.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Yes, it seems we should keep in touch more in the future."
Feng Xiaoxia's gaze swept across Cheng Xuyuan's face from time to time, and she saw that Cheng Xuyuan at this moment seemed a little more mature than the last time she saw him.
But when he smiles, he still makes people feel particularly close.
Feng Xiaoxia has always been conflicted about Cheng Xuyuan. She is happy for Cheng Xuyuan's achievements, but with the appearance of Fang Yuqing, she deliberately keeps her distance from Cheng Xuyuan.
However, when I saw him, I couldn't help but feel happy.
"Are these all your luggage?" Wu Xiaoli pointed at a pile of things under Cheng Xuyuan's feet.
Cheng Xuyuan said: "I brought a lot of things."
"When we went to college, we would just bring back some local specialties from Beijing. But when you come back, it's like moving house." Wu Xiaoli said, "Famous writers are different!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan quickly said modestly: "I just write some novels, I don't dare to be a famous writer."
"You didn't call yourself a famous writer. You were recognized in the news yesterday!" Wu Xiaoli said, "It said that you are the only famous writer who has won the American Literature Award in recent years!"
"Xiaoxia, don't you think so?"
Feng Xiaoxia smiled and said, "The Pursuit of Happiness is indeed very well written."
Feng Chenggang said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go home first, your mother is still waiting at home!"
Although he didn't want to disturb his daughter's conversation, he couldn't just watch Cheng Xuyuan teasing his daughter here.
Feng Xiaoxia looked at Cheng Xuyuan's luggage and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Dad, didn't you borrow your company's car to pick me up?"
"Cheng Xuyuan brought so many things, how about we send him off?"
Instinctively, Feng Chenggang wanted to say that it was not his turn.
But looking at his daughter's eyes, he couldn't help but soften his heart.
What's more, in the current situation, it would be a bit unreasonable not to help.
"Okay, let's go together."
"That's great!" Cheng Jiadong said, "I was thinking of borrowing a cart from a friend to push these things around!"
Cheng Xuyuan also smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Feng."
With the help of Feng Chenggang, Feng Xiaoxia and others, Cheng Xuyuan's huge pile of luggage was soon piled on the jeep driven by Feng Chenggang.
Cheng Jiadong wiped his sweat and said to Feng Chenggang, "Brother Feng, you take Xuyuan back first. I'll be there in a while by bike."
Feng Cheng was just about to speak when he saw Cheng Jiadong quickly walking towards the parking lot not far away.
Although he still felt a little awkward, he still said, "Let's go, get in the car."
So, in a jeep, except for the driver Xiao Luo, Feng Chenggang sat in the passenger seat, while Cheng Xuyuan and Feng Xiaoxia squeezed in the back seat.
Although the back seat of the jeep was relatively spacious, the three people wearing thick coats in the middle of winter still made it feel a bit crowded.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan sitting with his daughter, Feng Chenggang felt uncomfortable.
I borrowed a car for the purpose of picking up my daughter, but what happened now? It seems like I have to run around to pick up Cheng Xuyuan!
Because he was unhappy, Feng Chenggang didn't say much.
However, Wu Xiaoli and Feng Xiaoxia's chattering later made the atmosphere in the car not seem awkward at all.
Seeing his daughter and Cheng Xuyuan chatting and laughing happily, Feng Chenggang felt even more unhappy.
Just then, the car turned a corner.
I don’t know if it was because the car was going too fast, but when turning, Feng Xiaoxia’s body leaned towards Cheng Xuyuan.
Although he quickly grabbed the seat in front of him, Feng Chenggang still felt a little itchy.
He felt like punching someone.
This Cheng Xuyuan is so abominable! You are obviously eating from the bowl and looking at the pot! But at this time, he could only say to Xiao Luo: "Xiao Luo, why are you driving so fast? Drive slower!"
