Song Zhi suddenly realized that she had very little contact with Zhao Yun since she started working, and the two had not seen each other for a long time.
"Yes, auntie, I booked the train ticket for today." Song Zhi looked over and said with a smile.
Zhao Yun quickly said, "I just brought back a lot of wood ear mushrooms and fungi from home. I'll give you some so that the elderly at home can taste them."
When Song Zhi heard her say this, she quickly refused: "No, auntie. It's not convenient to carry it with you on the train." Song Zhi mainly wanted to find a reason to reject Zhao Yun's kindness. She was also embarrassed to take other people's things. Besides, she had worked hard to dry them. There were many people in Aunt Zhao's family, and she was afraid that they would not have enough to eat by themselves.
"Is it inconvenient? There aren't many things. Wait a moment, I'll be there quickly." After saying this, Zhao Yun hurried into the house, fearing that Song Zhi and the others had left.
Song Zhi looked at Gu Huaijin helplessly. Gu Huaijin put the luggage she was holding into the car and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, Aunt Zhao. This is also a token of her kindness."
Soon Aunt Zhao came out of the house with two cloth bags in her hands, which were obviously stuffed full.
"So many." Song Zhi exclaimed.
"There are quite a lot of them dried in the sun. Although they look like a lot, they can't be eaten in a few meals. You can take them back and stew meat or make soup during the New Year." Zhao Yun stuffed the things into her hands and said.
Seeing that they had already put their things in the car, she quickly said, "Then hurry up and leave. Don't delay your ride."
Song Zhidao thanked him, looked at his watch and saw that it was indeed late, so he didn't continue the small talk and turned around to get on the bus and head to the train station.
It takes nearly four days just to get here by train, and I can only stay at home for three or four days at most.
In fact, time is very tight, but Song Zhi is sitting on the train at this moment, listening to the sound of the train, he just feels that the train is too slow and will never reach the terminal.
"I heard from mom that our sister will be back this year. If we happen to meet her, please tell me if she says anything unpleasant." Gu Huaijin said to Song Zhi as he finished serving her meal and stood beside her bed.
Song Zhi was stunned when he heard this before he even put his chopsticks into the bowl. Gu Huaijin's sister Gu Qiujin was not an ordinary woman. Although she had been married and had children, she did not stay at home to take care of her husband and children like an ordinary housewife. Instead, she devoted herself to scientific research with her husband.
Her temper also conforms to the stereotype of general researchers: she is well-behaved and doesn't talk much, but she is also rigid and doesn't like others to disobey her.
Especially when Song Zhi was a child, she was a real punching bag. Gu Qiujin looked down on her and always wanted to say something to her when she saw her.
Gu Qiujin was usually very serious and could hardly force a smile in front of her own family, let alone the daughter of the nanny who lived in their house. It would be a miracle for her to see her smile, so when Song Zhi was young, he would avoid her when he saw her.
Another most important reason is that Gu Qiujin and Su Yitang get along well. They have similar temperaments and Su Yitang is also a very disciplined person. The two can be regarded as very good friends. Now seeing that her brother-in-law has been replaced by someone else, and is still the one she dislikes as a punching bag, giving her the cold shoulder is considered a very good treatment.
That is to say, Gu Qiujin was not there when the fake Song Zhi designed to fall into the water, otherwise the marriage would most likely not be successful. Gu Huaijin naturally knew her sister very well. Although she would not do anything out of line, she would still make things difficult for Song Zhi and make her feel uncomfortable.
Song Zhi rarely refuted and nodded obediently.
Seeing how docile she was, Gu Huaijin was a little afraid that she would be bullied by her sister. Although she wouldn't be beaten, he didn't want her to hear any harsh words. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Remember to tell me if you have any grievances."
Song Zhi looked up and saw his worried look, and said with a bit of amusement: "Don't worry, I won't be unreasonable, but I won't be bullied by her either."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Gu Huaijin's reply, she lowered her head and started to eat. She was actually a little carsick, but she had been sitting on the train for such a long time without eating anything. Her stomach was empty at the moment, and she would feel even more uncomfortable if she didn't eat something, so she endured the dizziness and nausea and forced a few mouthfuls of rice into her mouth.
Song Zhiwo handed the remaining rice to Gu Huaijin. Seeing that she had only eaten a little, Gu Huaijin frowned slightly, but did not say much and finished the rest of her rice naturally.
After finishing his meal, he went to get two cups of boiled water, handed them to Song Zhi and said, "Drink some hot water. If you feel uncomfortable, lie down and rest. I'll call you when you're almost there."
Song Zhi took the water without hesitation, drank it, and handed the cup to Gu Huaijin who was lying on the lower bunk. He then lay on the bed with his eyes closed, counting one sheep, two sheep, until he heard the sound of steady breathing.
"Zhizhi, wake up, we're almost there." Gu Huaijin patted Song Zhi's arm. Song Zhi opened her eyes drowsily, and the rumbling sound of the train starting didn't seem so annoying anymore. She had even gotten used to falling asleep in such an environment.
"Are we there yet?" A soft, even somewhat hoarse voice rang in Gu Huaijin's ears. Seeing Song Zhi's expression at the moment, Gu Huaijin's eyes darkened and his Adam's apple moved. He controlled himself and said in a steady voice, "We'll be there soon. Pack up first. Dad's guards should be here to pick you up when you get off the car."
Before returning, I had already called my family to inform them of the specific time I would be arriving.
Song Zhi looked at the swaying train roof, took a few minutes to relax before sitting up, tying his hair up, and starting to pack his things.
They soon arrived at the train station. Gu Huaijin, a tall and strong man, was carrying two large packages, which contained clothes for them to change and food. Song Zhi took the initiative to pick up a small package, which contained things they needed on the train and food given by Aunt Zhao.
After getting off the train, Song Zhi quickly saw a green jeep that stood out in the crowd.
"It's there." She saw it at a glance and pointed to the location to Gu Huaijin. There were people getting on and off the entrance of the train station, and two groups of people were coming in and out, so the road was particularly crowded when getting off the train.
"I'll walk in front, you follow me." Gu Huaijin looked at the people coming and going and instructed Song Zhi in a low voice.
Song Zhi responded. With the tall Gu Huaijin walking in front, Song Zhi walked behind and had no obstruction. They soon arrived at the jeep.
The person who came this time was not a police officer, but Zhang Yan, a subordinate of Gu's father. The police officer had returned to his hometown for the New Year. Zhang Yan was a friend and comrade-in-arms who grew up with Gu Huaijin.
He saw Gu Huaijin and quickly got out of the car to take a package. "How have things been over there these past few months?"
"It's okay. Didn't you go back to your hometown this year?"
"Why go back? My wife is coming this year. I will take them to Kyoto to have fun. You should also have a good rest after the New Year holiday." Zhang Yan showed a happy smile on his face. Their military vacation time is short to begin with, and it is really time-consuming and laborious to travel back and forth. When his wife came, he was relatively much more relaxed and did not have to catch the train back and forth.
