The reason why Bai Ke is so eager to go back to his hometown with his father and brother is because after his father left his hometown in the previous life, he never went back.

It wasn't until twenty years later that Bai Ke returned to his hometown with his father's ashes.

Therefore, this time it can be regarded as repaying my father's wish in his previous life.

Originally, Qin Yongmei was reluctant to let their grandfather go back to the south.

But after experiencing the death of her niece and witnessing the mysterious sudden death of the family, Qin Yongmei was a little scared.

I was afraid that Bai Ce would be tired, so I was happy to let Bai Ce go back to his hometown to relax.

Of course, she was a little annoyed when she thought that she was left alone with Bai Bin and Bai Ning and an old man with inconvenient legs.

"Go back to your hometown! ”

After all, Qin Yongmei still had to help the father and son prepare the gifts to bring back to their hometown.

There are many relatives in the south, with four aunts and four uncles.

Bai Ce also had some comrades-in-arms and colleagues, and after he moved to the north, he also kept in correspondence.

Ningluo is not a village.

None of these relatives and friends can be left out in the cold.

However, the experience of being a human being in two lives makes Bai Ke know what to bring better than his parents.

"Mom, you don't need to bring anything else, just bring dried cuttlefish, and they will be happy if the family gives a few. ”

"Really, fake?" Qin Yongmei was skeptical.

Bai Ce scratched his head: "It seems that yes, the old family likes cuttlefish more." They don't like the other dried clams, dried sea red, diced scallops, etc. ”

Don't say that this is done and that is done, the southerners in the mainland during this period did not even recognize sea cucumbers.

The reason why they recognize cuttlefish is because it has a nourishing effect, and on the other hand, they also cook cuttlefish.

Of course, cuttlefish and squid are not the same thing, cuttlefish have long bones.

Under the repeated persuasion of Bai Ke and her father, Qin Yongmei didn't bring anything else to them, otherwise the master would have suffered along the way.

Because from the far northeast to the southwest, you have to pass through most of China, and you have to change trains several times in the middle.

If you bring too many things, you will simply suffer from it.

When the whole family came from the south two years ago, they really didn't suffer much, because they were all by boat.

That year, it was difficult to take the train, and the earthquake caused many lines in the north to be disrupted.

But taking a boat is too time-consuming, it takes two or three days to walk at sea, four or five days to walk in the river, plus changing boats back and forth, it takes ten days all the way.

So, it's best to take the train.

The tickets are bought, the things are ready, and it's time for the grandfather and son to hit the road

Although she was urging the three Southern Barbarians to get out of here, Qin Yongmei's eyes were already red.

Bai Ke hurriedly comforted his mother: "Mom, don't worry, the three of us can take care of ourselves." ”

Qin Yongmei smiled: "Little thing, you are still a big man." Anyway, don't rush anywhere. ”

"Got it. The grandfather and the son agreed together.

In these days, only veteran cadres can buy sleeper tickets.

Qin Yongmei, through the relationship between her third uncle, only bought a sleeper ticket.

Fortunately, this is only the first part of the journey, and it is not too far from the county seat to Kyoto, and it takes more than 20 hours to arrive, so you can only get one night.

In the evening, there was a dispute over who would sleep in the sleeper.

Bai Ce insisted on letting his two sons sleep in sleepers, but Bai Ke was worried that his father was too tired.

In the end, Bai Ke and his brother persuaded their father together.

Bai Ke said: "My brother is in the best health, like a horse, he can sleep standing up." ”

Bai Zong nodded vigorously: "Well, that's right." ”

Only then did Dad agree to let Bai Zong sleep in a two-person seat, and Bai Ke and Dad squeezed into the sleeper to sleep.

Huddled together with my father, listened to my father's healthy heartbeat, and then touched the fast-acting heart-saving pill in my father's pocket, Bai Ke was very comfortable and fell asleep after a while.

At four or five o'clock in the morning, the white passenger woke up, quietly got out of the sleeper, and entered the carriage.

The sleeper and the carriage are two worlds.

The sleeper is extremely quiet and peaceful.

The carriage was like a catastrophe, full of people.

The ground was full of people, and there was barely room to put their feet.

There are people stuffed under the chairs.

The most outrageous thing is that there are still people who lie on the back of a narrow chair.

The toilet must have been locked, and as the best single room it had long since been occupied.

In these years, people who are in a hurry can suffocate to death if they take the train.

The people in the chairs are even more bizarre.

There are those who are arched in seat covers, there are those who kneel, there are those who stack arhats, there are those who eat each other's feet, and there are people with their lower bodies on chairs and their upper bodies on the ground.

It was so easy for Bai Ke to find his brother.

It's really like Bai Ke said, my brother is simply a big horse.

The upper body was lying on two seats, and the two legs were raised against the wall of the carriage, snoring loudly.

Bai Ke hesitated to wake up his brother.

Because there is only one sleeper ticket, Bai Ke, as a child, although it is more than one meter two, can still sleep with his father with a cheeky face.

Bai Zong's big man of more than one meter and seven meters is definitely not good.

Suddenly, he was tapped on the shoulder.

As soon as I turned around, my father came over.

"Wake up your brother. ”

Bai Ke hurriedly shook his brother awake.

Bai Zong stood up, although his eyes were open, he was still staring in a daze, and it was estimated that he was only half awake.

Bai Ce dragged him to the door of the sleeper car, stuffed the sleeper ticket to him, and then pushed him in front of the flight attendant.

Bai Zong could sleep for at least four or five hours, because it was almost noon when he arrived in Kyoto.

"Dad, have you ever been to Kyoto?" As soon as he sat down, Bai Ke asked Dad.

In his memory, he felt as if his father had been to Kyoto for the first time.

"Of course you've been, haven't you too?"

Only then did Bai Ke remember that when his father was demobilized, he also took this route and took the whole family back to his hometown in the south.

It's just that Bai Ke was too young at that time and had no memory at all.

The father and son chatted like this, and it was dawn in a blink of an eye.

A flight attendant came to transfer the visa.

Bai Ce asked, it was a night train from Kyoto to Wushi, but there were no seats anymore.

Bai Ce hesitated, and Bai Ke hurriedly pulled him: "Forget it, Dad, let's stay in Kyoto for one night." Don't worry about spending money, my brother does engineering, and there is no shortage of money. ”

Bai Ce smiled: "It's okay, try not to be too tired when you come out." ”

In the previous life, Shiraki only came to Kyoto in the 21st century.

In this life, I came so early, and I don't know what it looks like now.

At least the train station hasn't changed much from more than 20 years later.

As soon as he stood up at the train station, Bai Ce said, "You two are waiting here, I'll buy a ticket." ”

"Let's both go. The white guest puffed up his chest.

He knew that his father was honest and would definitely not be able to buy a sleeper.

Bai Zong and his younger brother have always been in the same step, and they also nodded hurriedly: "Yes, let's go buy tickets." ”

Bai Ce was also happy to let his two sons see for a long time, and hurriedly took the money.

Bai Zong waved his hand arrogantly: "No need, I have money." ”

Bai Ce forced the money to him.

There are long queues at various windows in the ticket hall.

Not to mention sleeper tickets these days, even seat tickets are not easy to buy.

But the old cadres were sparse in front of the window, and a few people in line also looked like they were strolling leisurely.

In fact, only two-thirds of the team are old cadres, and the other third don't look that old.

As a human being in two lives, Bai Ke still has a little bit of the ability to recognize people, and he can roughly see who is kind-hearted and who is easy to talk to.

He searched the ranks.
