Chapter Seventy-Nine: Night Tour from Shanghai to the Bund

In the ticket hall of the train station, Xiao Yao and Guo Liang were looking around. Before they could figure out where to go, they were at a loss as they watched the constant flow of people. Guo Liang has never taken a train when he is so old, and Xiao Yao has been to his uncle's house a few times, but he didn't go alone. This time it's just the two of them, and they have to arrange everything by themselves, which is really difficult.

"Let's go to the big city and have fun, the biggest city in China is Shanghai, let's go to Shanghai. ”

"Okay, anyway, there is no fixed place to go, so let's go to Shanghai. ”

The two hit it off, and Xiao Yao hurriedly asked Guo Liang to line up and buy a ticket to Shanghai.

Xiao Yao and Guo Liang, with the crowded crowd, got on the train to find their seats, and the stereo on the train happened to play Wang Jieshi and Xie Lisi's song "When Will We Meet".

I'm homeless

You're home, it's hard to go back

The same is the end of the world

Bitter gourd and bitter vine follow closely

The poignant singing voice and the lyrics that fit the occasion only made Xiao Yao and Guo Liang feel more and more heavy.

I don't know why, the train was stranded in the suburbs for a long time before entering Shanghai Railway Station before being allowed to enter Shanghai Railway Station, and when Xiao Yao and Guo Liang walked off the train with tired bodies and came to the station square, it was already midnight. Although they thought it was late, the whole square was still crowded and bustling. As soon as they got off the train and came to the metropolis for the first time, they experienced what it means to be in Shanghai at night.

The night view of Shanghai, and a provincial capital city in the interior, are not at the same level at all, and there is no comparison at all. The neon lights and towering buildings dazzled them, the trams with two big braids, the trams, and the various means of transportation, and the wide roads crisscrossed and extended in all directions.

They got on the tram and came to the Bund that they had been longing for for a long time, and there are many buildings from all over the world on this side of the Bund. At that time, there was no Oriental Pearl Tower, nor did there be Jin Mao Tower, but there were many high-rise buildings. Across the Huangpu River is Lujiazui, buildings of various shapes, scattered. Some are flat and tall, some are like footballs, and some are like an open book. Each building is equipped with a different neon sign that flashes in the night. The dark sky, with a few stars to see, reflects the Shanghai Beach in this city that never sleeps.

The flickering lights are swaying from the bottom to the top, some from left to right, and some are a beam of spotlight that hits the sky and then the river. The lights are red, yellow, and green, constantly changing patterns and shapes.

There are thousands of lights flashing on both sides of the river, and there are pleasure boats passing by from time to time on the river, and the sound of whistles is thick and distant. Cruise ships are generally divided into three or four levels, and each level is also overcrowded. Whenever a boat sails by, the calm river surface is split, and the river surface is flooded with layers of waves, and the lights reflected on the river surface ripple with the waves layer by layer, as if the river surface is sprinkled with thousands of petals of various colors, which is dazzling.

The Bund is brightly lit, and the Bund is full of tourists. Sightseers from all over the country and the world linger on the sidewalks of the Bund, couples, snuggling and murmuring.

In this bustling city, on the beautiful Bund and seaside, Xiao Yao and Guo Liang are just passing by. Without a good mood, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, they have no intention of watching it.

The two of them were tired of walking and had nowhere to stay, so they had to discuss, returned to the waiting hall of the train station again, found a corner, held their respective schoolbags in their arms, leaned on each other, and fell asleep peacefully.

During the day, they went to various places in Shanghai to play, and they buried their heads in the streets and alleys. Snacks and seafood, eating and drinking, delicious and undelicious, all taste fresh. Tired and sleepy from playing, continue to return to the station for the night in the evening. And so on, until one day, they suddenly found that the money was spent.

There is a saying: people are heroes, money is courage, and a penny is difficult to defeat a hero. I have no money, how can I stay in this unfamiliar metropolis.

Just when Xiao Yao and Guo Liang were still on the train to Shanghai. After Xiao Yao left, Wu Liangyuan, who had been unsettled, came to Xiao Yao's house and told Xiao Yao's mother about Xiao Yao. This is a big deal for this beloved mother. immediately took Wu Liangyuan and rushed to Xiao Yao's father's factory, forcing Xiao Yao's father to go to Wuyang Middle School immediately to negotiate with the school. Xiao Yao's father didn't dare to slack off. Immediately contacted relatives and friends in the provincial capital by long-distance phone, mobilized personnel to look for Xiao Yao, and once they saw Xiao Yao, they were directly detained and not allowed to leave. Someone also found Xiao Yao's grandfather, Xiao Yao's grandfather, told Xiao Yao about eating here at noon, and said that Xiao Yao might go to see his sister. So, the man hurried to Xiao Yao's sister's school and found Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu said that he didn't see his brother coming. Now I had to look for it again, and there was no goal.

Xiao Yao's parents made an appointment with Guo Liang's father and came to Wuyang Middle School together to negotiate with the school. But it didn't lead much. The vice principal of the school said: We asked them to stop classes in time and go home to find your parents, which is really good. It's not a question of who's right and who's wrong, we don't talk to our children, but we also consider that this matter must be discussed with your parents in order to have a result. Now that society is so chaotic, your children have conflicts and grudges with the gangsters in society. This time it didn't hurt. But no one is sure that today or tomorrow, they will come to take revenge on your child. If we don't communicate with your parents in a timely manner, our school can't afford to deal with any serious consequences. I didn't expect your child to go to such extremes. Ran away from school directly. For Guo Liang's father, he only gave one sentence, your son and Xiao Yao are in the same group, and we must also pay attention to his safety. Just an honest farmer, nodded yes again and again, and was grateful.

Xiao Yao's parents, although they have some culture, but in terms of reasoning, how to be the opponent of the school leaders, after some remarks, Xiao Yao's father saw that the school said sincerely, full of reason, so he had to give up. But Xiao Yao's mother didn't care about that, only left one sentence, my child is fine, return safely, I don't want you to reason, if my child has three long and two short, you can't get rid of it. Say a thousand, say ten thousand, my child is what you forced away.

Here, Xiao Yao's father urgently mobilized the competent purchasers around him to rush to the provincial capital, and once again used long-distance phone calls to contact relatives and friends in the provincial capital, and continued to increase efforts to find in the provincial capital. Over there, Xiao Yao's mother, who was in a hurry to go to the doctor, invited the great god with great superstition, to calculate the safety of her precious son, to calculate the return date of her son, and to calculate where her son is now. The news of Xiao Yao's departure from school spread, and there was an endless stream of relatives, friends and neighbors who came to visit Xiao Yao's mother every day. Every day, the house is full of guests, and the mat is not dry.
