Chapter 81
After returning home, Lin Qingqing began to prepare lunch. Today's dishes were richer, and of course they were best served with white rice, so Lu Cheng washed the vegetables while Lin Qingqing went to wash the rice and cook the rice first. Little boy Lu Haici went back to the room with his ball in his arms. He put the ball away, opened his schoolbag, took out two comic books, and put them on the small desk. These were specially made for him by Lin Qingqing, who asked a carpenter to make them for him. They were very suitable for children. In addition to the small desk, there was also a matching small chair.
Lu Haici put the two new comic books and the old comic books neatly, then he took out his notebook and pen and began to write an IOU.
Lu Haici didn't know how to write an IOU, so of course he could only draw one. He thought about it, figured out how to draw an IOU, and then started to work.
Lu Haici first drew a woman on the notebook. She had a round face, curved eyebrows, oval eyes, and a small black ball in the middle. That was the eyeball.
The nose was W-shaped, and the mouth was also a curved line. Unlike the eyebrows, the arc was upward.
From this head portrait, it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman, but in order to distinguish it from his mother, Lu Haici also drew hair with distinct lines.
Lu Haici had never learned to draw, and his drawings were the same as those of other kids at the time, with circles and lines. After drawing his mother, he drew a banknote on her five fingers. Lu Haici didn't know how to write the word "banknote", but for the sake of realism, he wrote the word "10" on the banknote. Fortunately, he still recognized some numbers, and Lin Qingqing would ask him to count.
Lu Haici's education was not strict. Lin Qingqing didn't restrict him to learn this or that. She thought that children should have a leisurely, happy and joyful childhood, instead of spending it in constant learning of art and cram schools like modern children. Of course, the pace of life in this era is different from that of modern times, and the lifestyle is different, so there is no comparability.
After drawing his mother and the banknote, Lu Haici began to draw himself. The technique was the same as before. The only difference was that he was a little smaller and had three hairs on his head as his hair, and his hair was a little shorter.
After drawing the lines, Lu Haici put down his pen, admired himself for a moment, and then tore the paper neatly from the notebook. He tore it very neatly. This child has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, unlike many children who tear the paper in crooked shapes.
After tearing off the IOU, Lu Haici ran out, shouting, "Mom..." as he ran
. Lin Qingqing was washing vegetables with Lu Cheng at the moment. When she heard Lu Haici's voice, she casually responded, "Hey..."
Lu Haici ran up to her and said in a very serious tone, "Mom, this is the IOU I gave you. I will return it to you when I grow up and make money. When I grow up and make money, I will give all the money to you, mom."
When Lin Qingqing saw the IOU, she was very curious, so she washed her hands and wiped them directly on her clothes. Anyway, she had to change and wash her clothes today. She was really curious about the IOU and couldn't wait to see it. After taking it and looking at it, she understood the meaning of Lu Haici's words, after all, it was very clear. But... is she that ugly?
"How about the IOU? Let me see it." Lu Cheng raised his head and saw her indescribable expression, so he was also quite curious.
Lin Qingqing showed him the IOU: "This is the IOU your son drew, what do you think?"
Lu Haici frowned and stared at his father, as if he would beat him up if his father said it was not good.
Lu Cheng looked at the painting and didn't know how to evaluate it. Frankly speaking, he was a man without painting cells. He thought this painting was very clear and not bad. He nodded: "You keep the IOU, and when the boy grows up and makes money, ask him for money."
"I will definitely give it to you." Lu Haici said, "I will give all my money to Mom. Dad, have you given all your money to Mom?"
Lu Cheng: "..." I gave it to her, but she returned it to him. But he was too embarrassed to say it, so he could only say vaguely, "I gave it to her."
Lin smiled lightly and looked at the father and son. They were like little enemies. The older one deliberately teased the younger one, and the younger one foolishly stabbed him in the back. They were really a good father and son.
Lu Haici was very satisfied with what his father said, so he went back to the room, took out the gift he bought for his father from his schoolbag, and then ran to his father and said, "Here, this is the gift I bought." When
Lu Cheng saw the black underwear in his hand, his face turned black. He looked at Lin Qingqing awkwardly, with obvious inquiry in his eyes.
Lin Qingqing shrugged her shoulders and said, "He bought it himself. He wrote the IOU and chose the color. It has nothing to do with me."
"Yes, I bought it. I told the saleswoman." Lu Haici was very happy that his mother made things clear, otherwise his naughty father would definitely not believe him again. Really, I don't know why adults just don't believe children. Children are all good babies who don't lie.
Lu Cheng's face darkened: "Okay, I got it, go back and put it in my room."
"Dad, Mom said that new pants should be washed before wearing." Lu Haici reminded like an old mother.
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows: "Since the gift is from you, the washing is also handed over to you, you have no objection, right?"
Lu Haici was stunned, how could Dad do this? He still wanted him to wash his own pants? "Okay." Seeing that Dad was washing vegetables, he agreed. Mom said that Mom worked hard to make money, so he was a good kid who cared about Dad. So, Lu Haici took Lu Cheng's underwear, put it in his own small basin, and washed the underwear.
"Look how you made him laugh." Lin Qingqing wanted to laugh when she saw Lu Haici washing his underwear.
Lu Cheng glanced at her and said, "Children must be brought up from an early age, otherwise we won't be able to control them when they grow up." Can't control them? How is that possible? As long as he is his son, he can control him.
"By the way, I also prepared a gift for you." Lin Qingqing said again. So, the underwear was really not bought by her.
Lu Cheng's heart moved, and he suppressed the corners of his mouth that wanted to curl up, and said stubbornly, "I told you not to buy it. I don't lack anything. Why waste that money? But since you gave me a gift, I should give you a gift in return. My mother taught me since I was a child that it is impolite not to reciprocate."
Lin Qingqing: "..." Should I give it or not? "If you ask me, I don't need anything either. Since it's too troublesome to go back and forth, why not just not go back and forth?"
"..." Lu Cheng froze, "Isn't this too formal?"
I won't be formal with you. Lin Qingqing ignored him, picked up the washed vegetables and went into the kitchen.
Lu Cheng also washed the things in his hands, and went in together. He saw that the water in the wooden barrel was almost gone, so he just went to fetch some water.
The lunch dishes were indeed rich. Lin Qingqing planned to make braised pomfret, stir-fried vegetables, poached eggs, and a shrimp and winter melon soup. Three dishes and one soup were just right for three people. Speaking of braised pomfret, if the pomfret is very fresh, it would be more delicious if it was steamed with a little soy sauce. But this pomfret was not so fresh, so it was more appropriate to braise it. Lin Qingqing likes to add sugar to braised dishes. This is a local custom. People in her hometown will add a little sugar when making braised dishes.
Fish has a fishy smell, so it should be put at the end in the general cooking process to avoid the fishy smell in the pot that cannot be cleaned out in a short time. So Lin Qingqing first made stir-fried vegetables with mashed garlic. This dish is very simple. Heat the oil in a pan, pour in the minced garlic after the oil starts to bubble, stir-fry the minced garlic for a few times, then add the greens and just add salt. Greens are easy to cook, but they don't need to be overcooked.
Next is the poached eggs. Lin Qingqing likes braised poached eggs, which means that after the poached eggs are done, pour all the poached eggs into the pan, and then pour in soy sauce, star anise, a little sugar and other seasonings. The third dish is dried shrimp and winter melon soup.
She made the shrimp and winter melon soup lighter, just add water and boil it and put the soup directly. Winter melon is a bit sweet, and shrimp is a bit delicious, so it tastes better when it is lighter.
Finally, there is the braised pomfret.
While Lin Qingqing was cooking, Lu Cheng, who had just come back from fetching water, and Lu Haici, who had just washed their underwear, were at the kitchen door with Paipai. There was nothing they could do, as Lin Qingqing didn't like them to make trouble in the kitchen, so they could only sit outside.
So, after Lin Qingqing finished cooking a dish, Lu Cheng moved a dish, and Lu Haici followed behind Lu Cheng and watched. Just like now: "It's done." She shouted.
Lu Cheng immediately stood up, his tall figure blocking the kitchen door, and then walked into the house. He picked up the braised pomfret on the stove and carried it to the living room. When Lu Haici was about to follow, he was stopped by Lin Qingqing: "Lu Haici, come and serve the rice." Lin Qingqing served the rice and sprinkled some black sesame seeds on it.
Since today's dishes are so good, of course there has to be some sense of ceremony.
"Hey." Lu Haici picked up his bowl of rice, "Mom, why do you put sesame seeds on the rice?"
Lin Qingqing: "Because it looks good."
Lu Haici looked at it carefully, and then said: "Yeah, it's really good-looking." In fact, for a child, this white and black combination is not good-looking, but it is very innovative, so he is very curious.
When Lu Cheng came back to serve the rice, Lin Qingqing followed Lu Haici out with two bowls of rice. "It's a pity that there is no soda, otherwise it would be nice... Oh, I forgot something." Lin Qingqing shouted.
A small interlude Wang Lu Haici immediately asked: "Mom, what did you forget?"
Lu Cheng said: "Forgot the refrigerator?"
Lin Qingqing didn't expect him to remember so well: "You remembered it but didn't remind me." She said unhappily.
Lu Cheng said: "I told my acquaintances." After thinking for a while, he said, "A few years ago, there was a large-scale secret activity in the county. Our troops and the public security cooperated together. Because the public security didn't have enough people, I was the commander of the troops at that time, so I got to know the people in the county public security and asked him to help. The meat and fish were bought from the place he recommended."
Lin Qingqing was just curious about the source of the fish meat and didn't want to know, but when he took the initiative to mention it, she always felt different in her heart. This feeling was very subtle, a little happy, and a little confused. "Well, I was wondering how we could still have meat when we went there so late. But speaking of meat, I remembered something. I might have to go back to Gaoshan'ao Production Brigade." Lin Qingqing changed the subject skillfully.
When Lu Cheng heard that the matter was so serious that he had to go back to Gaoshan'ao Production Brigade, he couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?" His tone was full of tension.
Lin said softly, "We will start breeding pigs on the farm, but the pigs I raise are all castrated, which may lead to various pathologies. I have asked the carpenter's wife, but the method of breeding pigs by castration has not been developed here yet. So I plan to go back to Gaoshanao and ask the village castrator to come over. At the same time, pigs need care after castration, and Grandpa Lin is more familiar with this area."
Lu Cheng's heart tightened: "What did you say just now? Pigs, what?"
Lin said softly: "Castration."
Lu Cheng felt a chill in his lower body and almost had cold sweat on his forehead: "Are you serious?"
Lin said softly "Of course, this is how it is raised in later generations, and the pigs of Gaoshanao Production Brigade are also raised this way, but it is not popular now. Because if the castrated pigs grow well, they are twice as heavy as the uncastrated pigs. Even if they grow slower, they can still have 50 to 100 kilograms of meat. The reason is that the uncastrated pigs are too energetic, just like people who exercise every day, although they have muscles, they have less fat on their bodies and look thinner. The principle of pigs is similar. After all, you are also from there, don't you know?"
Lu Cheng heard how much meat could be obtained, and heard her analysis, but he thought it was feasible. If each pig can really have so much meat, even if it is 50 kilograms, it can be a good meal for the comrades in a company. But: "I really don't know. My uncle's hometown didn't raise pigs this way when I was a child." Otherwise, how could he forget such a thing?
Lin said lightly: "Maybe I didn't get excited at that time. So I plan to go back in the next few days. I will ask Director Hong for a leave and say that I will go home to ask my grandfather for some advice on raising pigs and some medical knowledge that should be paid attention to."
Lu Cheng wanted to go together, but: "I don't have a long vacation this year. If you go back, I can't go with you."
"It's okay, I'm used to being alone. I have no problem taking the bullet train... which is the upgraded version of the train, and the plane. Moreover, I drive very well. It
's a pity that I don't have a car, otherwise it would be more comfortable to drive there." Lin said lightly. Lu Cheng: "..." I underestimated her. She can even drive a car, as if there is nothing she can't do. Are all the girls in the future so amazing? "Then you choose a day, and I'll take you to the train station."
Lin Qingqing did not refuse: "Well, don't tease Lu Haici on purpose when I'm not around." This kid is always bullied by his father on purpose, which is quite "pitiful".
Lu Haici didn't understand what they said before, he was eating his food peacefully, but he understood this sentence: "That's right, Dad is so bad, he always bullies me, he's really the worst adult."
"Eat your fish." Lu Cheng said this, but his actions were not. He directly picked up the piece of fish that Lu Haici was picking up, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
Lu Haici widened his eyes, and then looked at Lin Qingqing aggrievedly: "Mom, look..."
Lin Qingqing was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry, she had to pick up another bigger piece for Lu Haici.
Originally, Lin Qingqing thought that when she returned to Gaoshanao Production Team, she would bring the savings book of 1,500 yuan back to Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin. In fact, she had a hunch that according to the law of book-traveling, if nothing unexpected happened to her, she would stay here for the rest of her life. But after thinking about it, since there was a three-year agreement, it would be better to wait three years before giving the 1,500 yuan to the Lin family. Since
Lin Qingqing had made up her mind, she mentioned this to Director Hong when she went to work the next day.
Mr. Hong said, "Do you want to go back to your hometown to learn from your grandfather?"
"Yes, my grandfather is a doctor, and my family also raises pigs, and my grandmother is an expert in this area, so I want to go back and ask, and then copy some of my grandfather's notes. If there is an emergency with the poultry, maybe it can help." Lin Qingqing said the excuse she had thought of long ago.
Hong Jun said: "Then treat it as a business trip. I will issue you a certificate and reimburse all expenses."
Lin Qingqing said gratefully: "Thank you very much." She didn't feel guilty. She originally went there for the pig butchering. If there was a pig butcher nearby, she would not go back to her hometown. For the sake of breeding, she has already fought hard. However, it is inevitable to be a little nervous when she goes back to face the Lin family.
But she is also prepared. If she is still here three years later, she will have to face it sooner or later.
After Lin Qingqing had completed the formalities, she decided to leave two days later, which was September 11th. The farm breeding was urgent, so she didn't want to delay.
The day before leaving, Lin Qingqing wanted to talk to Lu Haici, who didn't know that her mother was going back to her hometown.
The night before, after Lin Qingqing got off work, she made dinner for herself, which was mushroom soup noodles. When the family was having dinner, Lin Qingqing mentioned this to Lu Haici: "Lu Haici, my little friend, mommy is going back to her hometown tomorrow and will probably be away for several days. You must listen to your daddy and make friends with the other kids in kindergarten." It is the Chinese custom to talk about things while having a meal.
Lu Haici was a little stunned: "Then... Then I will go back to my hometown with my mother. I miss my aunt too."
Lin Qingqing heard it and thought it was not impossible.
"No." Lu Cheng refused directly, "You will be very tired on the train alone, and it will be even more inconvenient with a child."
Lin Qingqing thought about the dangers that might happen on the train. If she took the child and the luggage, she would not be able to take care of someone with bad intentions.
Lu Cheng was worried about Lin Qingqing taking the train alone, let alone Lu Haici. This was definitely not possible. Not to mention the tiredness, if something happened, Lu Haici might drag Lin Qingqing down. "If you miss your aunt, we'll go back in two years when I have a vacation."
Lu Haici pouted. He knew that his mother would be tired from taking him on the train, so he didn't dare to speak. However, he still wanted to go back to his hometown with his mother.
"How about this, you count the days that your mother is away, and I'll prepare a few gifts for you, okay?" Lin gently coaxed the child who was about to pout until the future.
Lu Haici blinked. Although he really liked his mother giving him gifts, but...
Lu Cheng had a soul-searching question: "What if your mother gets sick because she's too tired after taking you back to your hometown? Besides, your mother goes back to her hometown for serious business."
Lu Haici's eyes reddened: "I... I won't go back to my hometown with my mother." He hated his mother being sick the most. He still remembered the time when his mother couldn't be woken up. He didn't want his mother to be sick again.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Mom will be back in good condition. She will prepare food and gifts for little Lu Haici, right?" Lin Qingqing patted his back and said, "Then I will prepare a bicycle for you when I come back, okay?"
Lu Cheng frowned, thinking that Lin Qingqing was too accustomed to the child.
Lu Haici sniffed and wanted it, but shook his head: "No, Mom works hard to make money, I don't want any gifts." His voice was a little choked, but very strong.
Lin Qingqing didn't say much, and gave the child a surprise when the time comes.
That night, Lu Haici naturally slept with his mother. However, unlike before when he would ask his mother to tell him a bedtime story, Lu Haici went to sleep alone on the bed after taking a bath.
When Lin Qingqing came in after taking a bath, she saw him motionless. Lin Qingqing thought he was asleep and did not turn towards him. Lin Qingqing walked to the other side quietly and lay down. But as soon as she lay down, the child rolled into her arms.
Lin Qingqing lowered her eyes and looked at him. Although his eyes were tightly closed, it could be seen that his eyelashes were trembling slightly. Was he not asleep? Was he pretending?
Lin Qingqing didn't know why he was pretending. She didn't call him, but kissed him on the forehead and sang softly: "Twinkle, twinkle little star, the sky is full of little stars..."
Lu Haici lay in his mother's arms, listening to the song his mother sang, and tears slowly flowed from the corners of his eyes. He didn't want his mother to know that he was not asleep, because he wanted his mother to go to bed early so that she wouldn't be tired when she got up tomorrow.
Lin Qingqing was singing just to let the child who was pretending to sleep know that she loved him very much. But she didn't look at him, so she didn't know that he was crying.
The next day
Lin Qingqing woke up and saw Lu Haici still sleeping, she breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Lu Haici would cry when she left later.
However, just as Lin Qingqing walked out of the room very lightly, Lu Haici, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes, quickly put on his clothes, and then ran out of the room.
Lin Qingqing, who was preparing to wash up, saw Lu Haici coming out and asked with a smile: "Haici, wake up."
"Yeah." Lu Haici responded, then he took a toothbrush and squeezed toothpaste and came to Lin Qingqing's side, and washed up with Lin Qingqing.
Lu Cheng came out of the kitchen: "I've cooked boiled eggs, sweet potatoes and potatoes. You can eat them when the train is boarding."
Lin Qingqing quickly brushed her teeth: "Okay, I brought peanut butter and bean paste. It's quite tasty with boiled eggs and potatoes."
Lu Cheng: "Du Wei will pick you up when you get to the county train station over there." Du Wei is Lu Cheng's cousin, the man that Lin Qingqing's classmate married. Let Qin Tao take you back when the time comes.
Lu Cheng called Qin Tao in advance, and Qin Tao also went to Gaoshanao to tell him, so the Lin family also knew that Lin Qingqing was on the train today. "The main thing is that you are on the train. As a female comrade, you should pay special attention to safety. Don't take off your clothes when you go to bed at night. Sleep with your clothes on. If anything happens, find the conductor or other management personnel inside first, and don't rush forward by yourself." He remembered that she said that she could take the train and the plane. He thought she was a brave person, so he was afraid that she would rush forward by herself.
"I know, it's still very chaotic now, I won't do anything rash." She still cares about her life.
Lu Haici listened to his parents' talk in silence, standing alone.
Lu Cheng: "Then eat something first, and then I'll take you to the station."
Lin Qingqing: "Okay." As she said that, she looked at Lu Haici and stretched out her hand to him, "Lu Haici, we're going to have dinner. After mom leaves, you have to draw a five-pointed star on your notebook. For every day mom leaves, you draw a five-pointed star. For every two days mom leaves, you draw two five-pointed stars. When you come back, your mom will give you as many gifts as you draw."
Lu Haici obediently gave his little hand to his mother, and he said softly, "Okay."
After breakfast, Lu Cheng sent Lin Qingqing to the station. Because Lu Haici was alone at home, he took Lu Haici with him. It was quick to get to the county train station. Lin Qingqing's train ticket was for the 9:30 am train, and it was only 8:30 now, so it was still early.
"Mom..." As soon as they arrived at the train station and Lin Qingqing was about to get off the train, Lu Haici suddenly hugged Lin Qingqing, "Mom..." His voice was a little choked. He hugged Lin Qingqing very tightly, as if he was holding on to something very important to him. In fact, to Lu Haici, Lin Qingqing was also very important to him, the most important thing, and the person he cared about the most.
"Mom...wuwuwu..." Finally, Lu Haici couldn't help crying, "Mom, I will be good, I will wait for you to come back, eat well, brush teeth well, wash clothes well, draw five-pointed stars well, wuwuwu...you must come back, wuwuwu..."
Lin Qingqing's eyes couldn't help but turn red. Lu Haici is also different to her, and he is the person she loves the most. The first moment she opened her eyes, she saw this child, and when she was helpless and a little dazed, it was this child who stayed with her. It was he who infected her with his innocence and enthusiasm, gave her warmth, and made her feel that even if her grandmother passed away, she was still needed. If it wasn't inconvenient to take care of the child, how could she not take him with her?
"Hai Ci..." Lin Qingqing also hugged him tightly, "You must remember, you are a little baby with a dad and a mom, you are the child that dad and mom love the most, and you are also the most important son to mom. The most important means the most loved. Do you understand?" She knew his inner desire for his mother and family, because this was also what she once wanted the most. No one could give it to her before, but now she has the ability to give it to him, so she will not let him down.
Lu Haici tried hard to clean his nose and sniffed: "Mom, I know." He let go of Lin Qingqing, although there were still tears on his face, but he looked at Lin Qingqing with a smile and stopped crying. Because his mother said that he was a little baby with a dad and a mom, he was the child that dad and mom loved the most, and he was also the most important son to his mother. The most important thing is to love the one you love the most.
Therefore, little Lu Haici, who is the favorite of his mother, will not cry.
Lu Cheng looked at them and felt that he was redundant. In fact, he was also very strange. Although people talk about fate, the mother-child relationship between them is deeper than he imagined. He knew why Lu Haici was dependent on Lin Qingqing, but he was a little surprised that Lin Qingqing loved Lu Haici so much. Even her biological mother didn't love her so much. His
biological mother was reluctant to buy comic books for her child every month and make delicious snacks for him every now and then. So... Lu Cheng suddenly had an idea. She would not regard Lu Haici as a transference effect. Would she have a child of her own in the future?
Thinking of this possibility, Lu Cheng felt terrible. But thinking about it, it was impossible. He recalled what she had said. Although it was not clearly stated, it was obvious that she would be single in the future. She would not be married and would not have a partner, so it would be impossible for her to have children. Therefore, she really liked Lu Haici.
Lin Qingqing comforted Lu Haici, and the three of them entered the train station. Lin Qingqing held Lu Haici's hand, and Lu Cheng held the suitcase. Suitcases in this era are really heavy and big.
Lin Qingqing's suitcase was filled with clothes, and no other gifts. It was really heavy, and she didn't want to cause trouble for herself.
The family rested for a while at the train station, and the train was about to arrive. Lin Qingqing carried the suitcase to queue up for ticket checking, and Lu Cheng held Lu Haici's hand and watched her from the side. "Mom, you have to come back soon." When Lin Qingqing was about to get on the train, Lu Haici suddenly shouted.
Lin Qingqing waved at him: "You must remember to draw a five-pointed star, and wait for your mother to give you a gift when you come back."
"Yes." Lu Haici responded obediently.
"Be careful on the train. No matter what happens, remember to call my office. I will be in the office all the time these days." Lu Cheng suddenly spoke. Always in the office means that I will be there 24 hours a day. The current trains are equipped with wireless phones, so if she called his office, he would definitely be there.
Lin Qingqing gave him a smile and then got on the train. She understood what he meant.
Watching him go in, Lu Cheng picked up Lu Haici and said, "After we go back, grandpa and I will go to the office to work on the floor. What do you think? If mom calls, we can answer the call first if we are in the office."
"Will mom call? Mom doesn't have a phone." Lu Haici said.
Lu Cheng: "Mom has arrived in the county. When we get to my aunt's house, we can go to the post office to make a phone call."
Lu Haici's eyes lit up at first, then he pouted: "What should I do in kindergarten when Mom calls?"
Lu Cheng pinched his little mouth: "Then Dad will ask Mom to call later, and Dad will call you, okay?"
Hearing this, Lu Haici put his arms around Lu Cheng's neck: "Dad, you are so nice, I love you the most." He leaned his little head on Lu Cheng's back, and his mood was much better than before.
Lu Cheng didn't believe this, so he deliberately asked: "You like me the most? Then what about your mother? You don't like her the most?"
Lu Haici immediately defended: "I like my father the most, but I like my mother the most, twice as much."
Lu Cheng: "..." He knew that the result would not be as good as he imagined. However, he was very happy that Lu Haici liked her very much, because she liked Lu Haici too.
Lin Qingqing got on the train. Because the train had not started yet, she put the suitcase under her bed, then went to the window on the side and stuck her head out, looking at Lu Cheng and Lu Haici who were still standing outside. She smiled slightly, with light in her eyes. Someone comes to see you off and keeps looking at you. This is an indescribable feeling. This feeling is so beautiful. It is the only first time in this life.
Lin Qingqing didn't look away until the train started moving, then closed the window. Through the window, she waved at them, and saw them waving back at her. They
didn't let go of each other's hands until they could no longer see each other.
Lin Qingqing returned to her bed. There were only two people in this carriage, one was her, and the other was the girl in the next bed. Neither of them said hello, and they were quietly doing their own things.
Lin Qingqing was bored, so she opened her suitcase and took out a notebook and a pen from it. She was going to prepare a gift for Lu Haici after returning home, and she also said that she wanted to buy him a bicycle for children, but bicycles for children might not be available, so Lin Qingqing planned to ask a carpenter to make one for Lu Haici.
Lin Qingqing drew a bicycle for a child on her notebook. The bicycle looked a bit like a takeaway bicycle, with a takeaway box on the back for the child to put things.
It took three days and two nights to get from the army to her hometown. During these three days and two nights, more and more people came up. Everyone was on their own. The dispute that Lin Qingqing imagined did not happen, which made her feel relieved.
At three o'clock in the afternoon of the third day, the train arrived at the station.
Lin Qingqing saw Du Wei when she got out of the station with her suitcase.
"Sister-in-law..." Du Wei also saw Lin Qingqing. Lin Qingqing was the kind that could be spotted in the crowd at a glance. Although she was not tall, she was not short either. In fact, her height of 163 cm was still quite tall in the eyes of many people. In addition, her skin was fair, the kind of fair and tender skin that was rarely seen.
"Du Wei." Lin Qingqing walked towards him, "Thank you for your help today."
"It's not hard, not hard." Du Wei was a little nervous, because when his cousin called him, he repeatedly told him to take good care of Lin Qingqing, otherwise he would come back to settle accounts with him. He didn't understand what his cousin meant, that his cousin liked Lin Qingqing. Du Wei thought that his cousin was too pretentious at the beginning. When Lin Qingqing pursued his cousin before, his cousin didn't accept it. However, he also had the impression that this good friend of his wife was a little arrogant, so he didn't know if he could treat her well. "Sister-in-law, Xiaojing has been thinking about you. She said she hasn't seen you for more than two months. She doesn't know how you are doing. She is very worried." Without knowing what to say, Du Wei pulled his wife out.
Lin smiled and said, "Xiaojing has always been like this. She cares about people. She was like this when she was studying before, and she is still like this now. She is very kind. So you have to treat her well. If you don't treat her well, I will ask Lu Cheng to deal with you."
Du Wei immediately said, "I dare not."
Lin said softly, "By the way, Du Wei, take me to the post office first. I want to call Lu Cheng to let him know I am safe."
Du Wei: "I know where the nearest post office is here. Now I can still get there before the post office closes."
