Chapter 16: The Destined Path

may feel that her actions are a bit excessive for a long time, Su Hua specially steamed white flour steamed buns at night, made a large pot of potato stewed pork, and the children who came back from school were hungry, but Su Hua was not in a hurry to start eating, she had to wait for her sister to come back and enjoy it together

"Gastronomy". The children at the dinner table gobbled up, but the atmosphere of the adults was a little embarrassing, Su Feng didn't touch the pot of meat, just silently sandwiched the pickle strips, Su Hua gave Wang Zhongliang a sneak look, Wang Zhongliang didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only signal to Sisi again, Sisi immediately understood, rummaged in the basin, picked up a large piece of lean meat and put it in the bowl of his aunt, and said with a smile

"Auntie, you eat meat, my mother specially made it for you, it's fragrant", Su Feng didn't look up, just hummed in his throat, Su Hua looked at the girl's expression, although she was a little unhappy in her heart, she said

"This child, the meat can't stop your mouth, who is it for, eat it quickly!", hearing his mother's reproach, he closed his mouth and continued to eat.

Suddenly, as if he had plucked up a lot of courage, Su Feng put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked at everyone fixedly, and said

"Sister, brother-in-law, I'm going out tomorrow!", Su Hua was stunned for a moment, and was speechless for a long time, Wang Zhongliang was the first to react

"Girl Feng, where are you going, are you going to the county seat, why are you going?",

"Don't go to the county seat, go to Harbin City, I'm going to work there", Su Hua reflected what her sister meant

"How can you go by yourself, besides, where are you going to find some work to do!", Su Feng said without thinking

"That Baojun is short of a cook, he asked me to go over and help him", Su Hua thought thoughtfully, didn't my sister disagree with this family business before, why did she suddenly have to work with him, besides, Hashi is so far away, how can you go...... Wang Zhongliang looked at Su Feng apologetically

"Girl Feng, if it is for the morning, my sister and brother-in-law will apologize to you, but you can't do such an impulsive thing, Harbin City is more than 100 kilometers away, how can you say that you can go", Su Feng smiled hard

"Brother-in-law, I didn't put my temper, I thank you two too late, if you hadn't taken me in at the beginning, I wouldn't have known how to live in the past 10 years, it's good to go to the big city, I have a long experience!", Su Hua saw that her sister was determined to leave, so she no longer stopped her, but asked worriedly

"Then have you two settled the relationship, besides, if it is really settled, you should also finish the wedding at home and then go with him, otherwise what will happen to this, what will others think!" Su Feng replied with a smile

"Sister, don't worry, the treasure army has been arranged, I don't pay attention to those." At night, Su Feng carefully packed up her things, she had been in this home for so many years, and now when she was leaving, she found out that she still carried two camphor wood boxes, a few old clothes, her father's cigarette pouch and cigarette basket when she came, and she didn't add anything else, inexplicably a little sad, she is not a person who is greedy for materials, she just wants to have a home, even if it is just a nest, a nest that does not need to be chased around...... Early in the morning, Su Feng tiptoed up, cooked a meal, and while the children were sleeping, she stuffed a brown paper cloth bag next to Sisi's pillow, which was a brand-new small flower skirt that she went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy for Sisi yesterday, although she was reluctant, she didn't want to call the children, that auntie, she was afraid that she couldn't control herself, picked up the box and prepared to go out, Wang Zhongliang in the yard had already prepared a bicycle, tied Su Feng's luggage to the back seat, and said a little choked

"Your sister is uncomfortable, I'm afraid of seeing you cry, so I won't come out to see you off, brother-in-law will send you to the station!", Su Feng bit her lip and nodded, leaned in the direction of the east house, and waved her hand, Su Hua, who was sitting on the kang at the moment, was already in tears, she suddenly wanted to keep this sister she brought up since childhood, the future is so long, the road is so far, how can she live alone, but she really doesn't have the courage, everyone has everyone's life, maybe this is her life...... Su Feng had to take a car to Lan County first, and then he could transfer from Lan County to Harbin City, Wang Zhongliang took the trouble to explain along the way

"If you are wronged outside, come back...... Don't get too tired of working...... I often send a letter to my home...... "Su Feng agreed one by one, looking at Su Feng who was sitting in the car with his head drooping, Wang Zhong's conscience was particularly uncomfortable, the last time he sent away the Feng girl, he was happy, and he was happy for her in his heart;

"Brother-in-law, go back, take good care of my sister and children, I will come back to see you!", the car started slowly, and Wang Zhongliang shouted

"Girl Feng, go to the place to rummage through your box, don't forget-" Su Feng's heart hurt as if it was broken, she nodded, and waved her hand vigorously, farewell, my beloved family, farewell, my hometown...... In fact, my brother-in-law didn't know, she lied, she didn't contact Baojun at all, just to let her sister and brother-in-law feel at ease to agree to her coming out, she made up a lie, she didn't know where to go, in short, it was impossible to stay at her sister's house anymore, the car was parked in front of the county gymnasium, she was carrying luggage, her stomach was hungry, someone on the side of the road was selling fragrant twist flowers and burritos, asked the price, at least more than 1 yuan, she thought about it, took out 3 cents from her trouser pocket, bought a big cake and chewed it, sat on the box, she was a little trance, it was very close to the soda factory, it seemed that the eyes were a little better, you could see the big chimney in the factory, and there used to be a weekly holiday, Hou Xiaohua and his co-workers will come here to play basketball, I don't know if they will meet him today, the conductor's shout immediately brought Su Feng back to her senses, how could she meet Hou Xiaohua again in her life, impossible, never meet him again!

The conductor repeated the shouting twice

"The car to Harbin is about to depart, are there any comrades who haven't had time to buy tickets?" Su Feng responded

"Yes, wait a minute, I'll come over right away", carrying two bulky tickets, Su Feng got on the bus to Harbin City...... More than two o'clock in the afternoon, finally arrived in Harbin City, since she was born, she has not been in the car for so long, the brain was bumped along the way, there was no food in the stomach, now can only empty acid reflux water, cars on the road, tricycles, hawkers, shocked her panic, the tall floor in front of her, hurried but fashionably dressed city people, she looked out of place, she hurriedly brushed the mud on the upper of the shoe at some point, she didn't know where to go, what to do in such a big city, sat in the square for 2 hours, there were two ladies with red sleeves in front of her has walked back and forth several times, she looked at her heart hairyShe tried to calm herself, she knew that she had to find a place to stay now, or she didn't know what was going to happen until it got dark!

There were many people in the square holding signs calling for pedestrians to stay, but when they asked the price, they all shook their heads and walked away

"Sister, my hotel here is clean and hygienic",

"Girl, my hotel is very close to here, a few steps away, and hot water"

"Little sister, there are three-person, four-person, and six-person rooms on my side, which are very cheap", Su Feng was going to rush out of the crowd, but as soon as she heard the word cheap, her eyes lit up instantly, a bed in a room for 6 people is only 1 yuan and 5 cents a night, although it is still distressing, but it is better than living in a place where 10 yuan is worth it, she comforted herself.

There was a lot of chaos in the room, large and small luggage was thrown on the ground at will, there were 4 girls in their early 20s who were sitting on a bed chatting at this time, and when they saw Su Feng coming in, they greeted enthusiastically and stopped talking, remembering that their brother-in-law shouted in the morning, Su Feng lifted the box and put it on the bed, opened it carefully, there was something wrapped in a headscarf, thinking that it must have been put in by my sister, lifted the headscarf, a pair of new cloth shoes lay there quietly, picked it up and looked, there was a 50 yuan in the shoes, it turned out that Su Hua didn't sleep all night last night, it was rare not to be afraid of spending electricity to light the lights overnight, just want to make a new pair of shoes for my sister before dawn...... , Looking at Su Feng who was curled up on the bed wiping his tears, among the girls who were chatting, one of the slightly older girls walked up to Su Feng and asked softly

"Sister, did you also come out to work, I see that you haven't spoken all night, are you homesick", Su Feng did not answer shyly, and the girl continued to comfort

"Don't cry, sister, we all came out to work, only if we work hard outside and earn money can we make a good life for the family", Su Feng nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and the other 3 girls called them both with a smile

"Dahua, you and your eldest sister come over here to sit, let's talk together", Su Feng was stunned

"Your name is Big Flower?", the girl laughed

"No, you heard it wrong, sister, my name is Dahua, Li Dahua", Su Feng was a little embarrassed, and couldn't resist the enthusiasm of a few people, so he squeezed into a bed with them, and only then did he know that they were from Hexi Township, the oldest was only 18 years old, a few days ago, the third bulb factory in Harbin City went to the township to recruit temporary workers, and a few girls signed up, and the leaders who brought them helped them find a place to live, saying that they would take them to go through the admission procedures tomorrow, and then they could go to work, Su Feng asked in a low voice

"Then is your factory still recruiting?", Dahua was a little embarrassed to stay in the sea,

"Sister, the factory recruits us rural people directly in the township, and the township has given us a certificate, so we can go in, if we go by ourselves, I don't know the roots, I guess people can't ask for it!", Su Feng regretted his impulsiveness a little, Dahua saw Su Feng's disappointment, and immediately patted her shoulder and cheered

"It's okay, sister, we rural people have strength, and we're afraid that we won't be able to find a job to do", Su Feng nodded vigorously, Su Feng, who only ate a big cake at the end of the day, had a stomach rumbling at the moment, and several girls quipped

"Sister, do you have a gluttonous worm in your stomach", Su Feng was embarrassed to tell everyone that he hadn't eaten much for a day, so he smiled and said nothing, Dahua seemed to feel Su Feng's embarrassment, and said enthusiastically

"When I came out, my dad had to stuff several boiled eggs and flatbread into my bag, I couldn't eat them, if I left it until tomorrow, it would definitely be bad, sister, if you don't dislike it, help me eliminate a few", Su Feng thanked again and again, she felt the warm kindness of strangers for the first time, and her nose was a little sour.

When there was food in the stomach, the people felt sleepy, and the sisters yawned and returned to their beds...... In the middle of the night, several people who were still dreaming were awakened by a bang, and the door was kicked open by three big men at some point, and the girls were scared to death, and two children actually cried, and the person who took the lead whispered fiercely

"Sister, what are you crying about, brother, we didn't do anything to you!" Su Feng was also completely dumbfounded at the moment, not knowing whether to run or shout for help, the one behind was a little shorter, but the guy with the same face slapped the person in front of him with the stick in his hand, signaling him to get out of the way

"The third child, how do you talk to the girls, look at the scared people, sisters, brothers are not bad people, they are all in business, just looking for to come in and sell some gold jewelry to you", several people looked at each other, I don't know what the three people wanted, no one answered for a while, the man said and took out a plastic bag from his crossbody bag, and after opening it, it was full of bright and dazzling gold necklaces and gold rings, but as long as you get close and take a closer look, you will find that these

Some of the "gold jewelry" may have been exposed black because they were worn together, and the man continued to say with a hippie smile on his face

"A few girls with fine skin and tender meat, support and support the brothers' trading, 1000 yuan is not too much, 500 yuan is not too little" , Su Feng immediately understood, this is no different from the robbers, but seeing that these three people are not good, the 4 little girls have been frightened, obediently took out the money from their clothes pockets and suitcases, and obediently picked out a piece of jewelry, to Su Feng, Su Feng was anxious and afraid, and the money in his pocket plus his sister was less than 100 in total, if they were robbed, how could they live, they didn't move for a long time, before Su Feng could react, she had been slapped in the face, and the hot pain made her angry and ashamed, several people shook her clothes indiscriminately rummaging through her boxes, and in a blink of an eye, more than 70 yuan was already in her hands, the person who was called the third child shouted viciously

"You poor ghosts, do you have such a small amount of money with you when you go out on a long trip, and a room can be put together for less than 1,000 yuan! I can warn you, if I find out that you still hide the money, then the brothers will not just sell things", several girls cried and begged

"Big brother, that's all there is to it, it's all here", the three of them scolded and prepared to leave after a mess, Su Feng was a little annoyed by her cowardice, she mustered up the courage to shout

"Aren't you afraid of the police when you do this?" the third child turned his head and walked to her window and smiled

"Big brother, the little girl scared me with the police, oops, I'm so scared that I really want to return the money to you", said, another heavy slap, Su Feng was beaten a little whirlwind, lying on the bed,

"Tell you, if someone really dares to touch us, then why didn't the owner of the hotel call the police with such a big move, a bunch of idiots, and they also learned to go to the city to work!", the three of them walked away, several girls cried together, and Dahua shook Su Feng while crying

"Sister, are you okay, why don't we go to the clinic!" Su Feng couldn't sit up on the bed, just shook his head, the five of them didn't feel sleepy anymore, closed the door and piled up the luggage at the door, the bolt on the door had been kicked and bent, and he sat like this until dawn...... Less than 6 o'clock in the morning, the leader of the light bulb factory came to pick up 4 people to enter the venue, saw a few people who were frightened, and was shocked to hear what happened last night, only blamed himself for being cheap, and had to find a place to live near the bus station, although he was not worried about the safety of a few girls, but when he thought of a large group of people, they also took care of each other, and there should be no problem, who wanted to put on such a thing, and I didn't know how to explain to the factory director for a while, he promised to take a few people to breakfast first, and then go to the nearby police station to report the case, and then take them in, looking at the few people who were about to leave, Su Feng was both envious and afraid, Dahua whispered to the leader and said something, The leader shook his head for a while, nodded for a while, and the leader walked up to Su Feng and said

"Girl, you come to the city to work, it is difficult for you to work in a regular factory, unless you try your luck in that kind of personal shop, but this kind of shop is generally enough for your family, you might as well go to the building materials market not far from here, there are many people like you, and many bosses will go there to recruit casual workers." , Su Feng was very grateful, and immediately prepared to leave after asking the address, she couldn't delay any longer, or she would really be sleeping on the street tonight, Dahua looked at Su Feng, who was in a hurry, and quickly stopped her, turned his head and rummaged in his luggage, and stuffed the 2 eggs and a big cake left over from last night with a rice pocket to Su Feng, Su Feng pushed embarrassedly, she couldn't trouble this girl who met for the first time, Dahua said optimistically

"Sister, we won't have to worry about eating and drinking when we enter the factory, you don't have to worry about us, it's just that you really have to be careful outside, we'll see you again when you have the chance", after separation, Su Feng hurried to the building materials factory according to the leader's words......
