Although Zhuge Huaizhi wore very thick cotton shoes, after more than an hour, the soles of the shoes were as cold as ice, and the legs wearing two woolen pants were also numb from the cold, and the hands wearing cotton gloves were as uncomfortable as cat bites.

There is no strength to stand in the wind and snow, trains with snowflakes whistling by, occasionally passing a few passenger cars, all of them are lit up with a row of dim lights, the windows are closed, no one waves, no girls and flowers, only a cold wind.

It was more than two o'clock, the snow was a little lighter, and the old black head who had been silent straightened his waist and said to Zhuge Huaizhi: "You go to the wrench room to rest and rest, and I will call Lao Cai and them back." With that, he followed the line.

As if he had been pardoned, Zhuge Huaizhi ran down the line, shook the snowflakes on his body, and pushed the door into the wrench room.

It was so warm in the wrench room, a small gas-holding stove was burning, even the stove lid was burning red, Zhuge Huaizhi took off his hat and threw it on the bed, moved a chair to sit by the stove, and put the half-wet cotton shoes on the stove to bake. After a while, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Lao Cai walked in after shaking his clothes and stomping his feet.

"Zhuge , why didn't you go home on Saturday?" asked Lao Cai with a smile.

Zhuge Huaizhi ignored him and continued to bake his steaming shoes, and several people crowded over, talking around the stove while roasting the fire.

"I haven't seen such a big snow in many years, and it's a foot thick in two hours!" Lao Cai said.

"Look at the snow in the second half of the night, Xiao Wang, you just got off the day shift, go back and rest, here I and Zhuge Jia will be double-posted." "Stationmaster Yan arranged.

"Oh, I'm not very tired. ”

"Let's go back, bake the fire, go back!" After speaking, Yan Keqin picked up the phone again to ask about the situation in the attendant station, and learned that the No. 1 wrench room was also doing a good job and did not affect the operation of the train, so he asked the attendant to ask Yuan Dingyu to go back and rest.

Wang Liqiang went back, Lao Cai and Lao Heitou were sitting on the bed talking, Zhuge Huaizhi was still on the edge of the stove, at this time, he heard a strange noise on his body.

"Gollum!"

Ouch, I was hungry, and then I felt hungry, Zhuge Huaizhi stood up, walked to the table and asked Lao Cai: "Teacher Cai, do you have anything to eat, I'm starving!"

"Yes, in a drawer!"

Zhuge Huaizhi hurriedly opened the drawer, and all that was presented in front of him were two broken books and a few waste batteries, and in the other drawer, there were only a few moldy peanuts.

"Where?"

"Isn't that, food for thought, hahaha!"

"Liar!" Zhuge Huaizhi fell back into his chair in frustration.

"Don't worry!" Lao Cai was like a trick, and he didn't know where to find a pack of instant noodles, Zhuge Huaizhi was very happy, but when he thought of three people in the wrench room, he was embarrassed again, and the old black man saw it and said, "You eat, I'll go to the station to see the situation." ”

After speaking, Yan Keqin put on his hat, lifted the lamp and pushed the door into the darkness.

After eating half a piece of instant noodles, his physical strength seemed to have recovered a little, Zhuge Huaizhi and Lao Cai went out to sweep for a while, and came back to continue the fire, hunger still bothered him.

After about half an hour, the old black head came back with a snowflake, and he was still carrying a small cloth bag in his hand, and when he opened it, there were several pancakes in it, and one of the pancakes was wrapped in some black pickles.

"Come on, eat quickly, I've been searching in the cafeteria for a long time, and that's all. ”

Zhuge Huaizhi usually doesn't eat pancakes, because his teeth are not good and he can't bite, but tonight he eats this rough wheat pancake and feels very fragrant and delicious, after eating, drinking boiling water, he feels very satisfied.

At four o'clock, there was a new problem with the turnout, and the train room announced: "The No. 2 turnout does not move." ”

Lao Cai hurriedly went out to inspect, it seemed to be frozen, the frozen turnout is forbidden to be scalded with boiling water, the three of them swept with a broom, knocked on the wooden gas, burned with oil and cotton yarn, and were busy for a while before the No. 2 turnout moved again, and the three of them hurriedly applied antifreeze to the turnout, and every half an hour they went out to sweep for a while, knock for a while, and dry until the sky was bright.

The snow finally stopped before dawn, and the three of them were huddled in a bed and fell asleep, when suddenly, a very loud phone rang woke them up, and Stationmaster Yan answered the phone, and it turned out to be the carriage room for them to go back to breakfast.

On the way back to the station, the three of them walked silently with their heads bowed, none of them had the intention of admiring this strange scenery created by nature, they were so tired that they didn't even have the strength to speak.

In the afternoon, Zhuge Huaizhi was finally approved to go home, and Stationmaster Yan found a slow car porter he knew, pushed Zhuge Huaizhi's bicycle up, and gave him a day off, so that he could return to work at the station on Monday afternoon.

Half an hour later, the train stopped on the platform of Yimeng Railway Station, and Zhuge Huaizhi got off the train.

Riding a bicycle, slowly walking on the road of the city, I saw that there were many people on the side of the road who were busy clearing the snow, children laughing, making noise, rolling in the snow, and occasionally seeing cute snowmen on the side of the road.

On the road, people ride their bicycles very carefully, but from time to time there are still people who fall on their backs because of a sharp turn, which causes bursts of laughter.

When he arrived at the door, Zhuge Huaizhi was stomping the snow on his feet, the door opened, and a stream of heat rushed to his face, and then his mother's somewhat old face showed a loving and reassuring look: "Why didn't you come back yesterday?"

The house was warm, but my brother and sister were not at home, Zhuge Huaizhi threw himself on the sofa and said to his mother: "Yesterday, I worked an extra shift......"

He Rulan is in the living room of her sister's house at the moment, sitting on pins and needles.

She felt that she was so stupid, she went to secondary school for three years in vain, and when she first entered the society, she didn't know anything about the world, maybe her sister was just a kind word, but she took it seriously, which made her sister so embarrassed.

He Rulan, who has lived in the village below Ruyi Town since she was born, was assigned to work at the railway school in Yimeng City after graduating from the normal school, and next Monday is the day of registration.

Speaking of which, I also have to thank this railway, when I first went to school, He Rulan had to take a tractor to the town every time she went to school, and then took a bus to Yimeng City with only one flight a day, and then transferred to a long-distance bus in Yimeng City to go to school, which made He Rulan tortured.

Although the railway station is more than ten miles away from Ruyi Town, it is only two miles away from He Rulan's home, and it can be reached to the station in ten minutes with luggage, which makes He Rulan's heart bloom.

Sister He Ruxue works as a doctor in a hospital in Yimeng City, and when she heard that her sister was also assigned to work in the city, she was naturally very happy, so she invited her to play in the city for two days in advance and then report to work.

What the two sisters didn't expect was that this move annoyed He Ruxue's mother-in-law!
