Chapter 12 A Warm and Cold Life
The green car, without a seat, tossed in the car for another day.
Lin Xiao was hungry and sleepy, smelling the smell of instant noodles in the carriage, his stomach growled, he wanted to eat, but unfortunately the money was not enough, and the things on the train were expensive. It was stuffy in the carriage again, and he was completely supported by his own perseverance, and almost fainted.
Finally arrived at the station, Lin Xiao dragged her luggage, walked out of the train station, went to the bus station, and then took the car home.
During the Spring Festival, the weather was not good, and the car driver raised the price privately, and he had to pay five yuan to get home! But Lin Xiao only had two yuan left, and he had no choice but to say good things to the driver, and he didn't have enough money on him.
The driver of the first car immediately drove him out of the car.
Lin Xiao waited for the second car. When the car came, Lin Xiao went up again to say hello to the master, explaining that he didn't have enough money, could he do him a favor and give him a ride. Although the master did not directly refuse, he changed his words and said that this shuttle bus was short-term and did not reach Lin Xiao's hometown.
Lin Xiao wanted to cry without tears.
It was raining again, and the north wind was blowing whirring, and it was cold to the bone.
Finally, I waited for the third car, and the conductor was a middle-aged woman.
Lin Xiao was in a very depressed mood, and with the last glimmer of hope, she came to the car and explained her situation.
The middle-aged woman was a little embarrassed, but looking at the haggard boy in front of her, she couldn't bear to refuse, so she said:
"Child, let's do it, my car is also a little dirty, you clean the car for me, and then rinse the outside of the car, I won't charge you money!"
Lin Xiao had tears in her eyes and hurriedly said:
"Thank you, Auntie, I'll clean it up for you!"
The driver parked the car at the car wash and got out of the car.
Lin Xiao took a broom and a mop, and carefully cleaned up the car first, which was very clean. Then close the door, pick up the water gun next to it, rinse the body first, and then apply the cleaning liquid. The car was too big and tall, and Lin Xiao had no experience, so he didn't know where to start for a while, so he couldn't take care of too much, so he just had to do it.
In the cold winter, more than ten degrees below zero, his clothes were soaked and frozen, and his hands were red and swollen from the cold, and he almost didn't obey the call.
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and insisted, and finally rinsed the body with a water gun.
The middle-aged woman was quite satisfied and let Lin Xiao get into the car.
Lin Xiao couldn't hold it anymore, her legs were sore, she staggered, ran to the stall next to her, bought two buns for one dollar, and devoured them, tears flowed down.
These two buns are so fragrant!
Many years later, every time Lin Xiao thought of those two buns, he could smell the aroma, and his eyes were red every time......
When I finally got home, it was already dark. The family was very distressed when they saw that Lin Xiao was so thin that they were skinny and bone-ty, and immediately killed the chicken and cooked soup for him to drink.
After eating and sleeping well, I was too sleepy on the way.
Yang Lingfeng went home during the Spring Festival, no one contacted him, and he avoided everyone. Chen Jun, Fang Xiaoqing, Wang Haiquan, contacted several other high school classmates and wanted to get together. Fang Xiaoqing called the small shop in Lin Xiao's village, which was the only phone in the village. Lin Xiao didn't want to go, but after hearing Fang Xiaoqing's sincere invitation, she went.
The meeting place is on the stone village of the alma mater high school, where there are several restaurants.
Fang Xiaoqing's family conditions were better than those of several other people, so she booked a private room in a hotel and took the initiative to invite everyone. Chen Jun refused, but she couldn't resist Fang Xiaoqing, and in the end everyone agreed to her treat.
It's been almost half a year, Fang Xiaoqing thought that she had come out of the pain, but as soon as she got home, several classmates got together, and she had just passed by the high school campus, thinking of the bits and pieces with Yang Lingfeng in high school, and she couldn't help crying bitterly.
Girls are made of water, tender like water, clear and transparent, how can it be so easy to get out of the shadows.
Several other classmates had to comfort her together, Lin Xiao's nose was also sour, and everyone cried and chatted, talking about their own university, and talking about various stories in college......
Crying and crying and laughing again, laughing at the joys and sorrows, laughing at the warm and cold life......
There was a month of rain and snow during the Spring Festival holiday, and it was very cold.
Lin Xiao didn't go out much, stayed at home all day, eating, sleeping and sleeping. I woke up in the middle of the night and watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which has this paragraph:
The next day, Xuande Tongguan and Zhang came to Longzhong from people. Looking at a few people on the side of the mountain, the lotus hoe ploughed in the field, and composed a song:
The sky is like a round cover, and the land is like a chess game.
The world is divided into black and white, and they fight for honor and disgrace.
Those who are honored are at peace, and those who are humiliated are at peace.
……”
Wonderful self-realization!
Lin Xiao thought about her experience in the past six months, sighed in her heart, and wrote a poem:
Spring is especially cold at night,
It's hard to be happy after half a year of running.
May I have the rest of my life to return to the field,
Regardless of other people's affection and warmth!
……
Before I knew it, I fell asleep again.
That night, Lin Xiao had a dream......
