When I got to the man, my father realized that the man was an old man. He was about sixty or seventy years old, with gray hair, and wore a dark blue tunic with neatly buttoned buttons, and a black crotch trousers, which seemed to be so thin that they puffed up when the wind blew.

The pants and trousers that we usually wear are all around the ankles, and the big crotch pants are wrapped around the old man's feet, making it difficult to see whether he is wearing socks or not. In addition, the old man also wore a pair of cloth shoes made of black dika cloth on his feet. In addition, he has a blue hanging bag on his shoulder. The bag is small and delicate, and it looks cute.

My father didn't want to lose this opportunity again, so he cautiously stepped forward and called "old brother" very affectionately. The old man seemed to be bending over to tie his shoes, when he suddenly heard someone talking behind him, and he still didn't believe it, so he stopped.

He glanced behind him with the rest of his eyes, and saw a long black shadow reflected on the ground. Turning his head slightly, he saw a tall figure standing behind him.

As soon as he saw this scene, the old man couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart: it was so late, and it was so remote here, and it was unknown where such a person came from, maybe it would be unfavorable to him. At this thought, the old man didn't even bother to tie his shoelaces, so he straightened up his waist and ran forward like a 100-meter sprint.

When my father saw this, he chased after him. Perhaps because of his physical strength, the two of them ran one after the other, but my father still caught up with him.

When the old man saw that there was nowhere to hide, he stopped, turned around, and said to my father, who was catching up, "You—what are you chasing after me?" My father also panted and asked him, "So—then what are you running?" "I thought you were from the station asking me for the fare." When my father heard the word "fare," he couldn't help but think about it, and his voice became polite: "Brother, what did you just say? “

When the old man heard my father call him "old brother," he spoke softly: "Brother, I said I thought you were from the station and wanted to ask me for the fare." "So you didn't get a fare for this car?" "yes, what else do you need for a truck?"

When my father heard the old man's words, he slapped his thigh with joy and exclaimed, "That's right." When the old man heard this, he asked my father with a puzzled face, "What do you mean by that?"

When my father heard the old man ask him, he stepped forward, took him by the hand, and made him sit with him on a sleeper on the edge of the tracks, and said to him, "My brother, these are long words. Just because our baby and our old couple stumbled, they ran to Jiangxi in a fit of anger. We wanted to go to Jiangxi to find him, but there was no fare.

Isn't this hard to do here? I just heard you say that you don't need to pay a fare for a truck, is this true?" "Really, why am I lying to you? If you want to go to Jiangxi, you can also take a truck." "How do you sit?" my father asked.

The old man said, "You have found the right person when you meet me today." I was originally from Suizhou, just because my girl married to Xiangfan, every time I went to his house and didn't want to spend money, I took a truck from Suizhou. And so it was when I came back. So, I just said that I wanted to go to Jiangxi, which was really easy, and I could get there by truck. ”

"Really?" "Really. Why am I lying to you at such an age? But if you want to go to Jiangxi, you have to change trains. There is no direct car to Nanchang here. You must first go to Wuchang and then to Nanchang. ”

"Is there no one to take care of the truck?" asked my father. "Anyway, I've been on it so many times, and no one has asked me for the fare. However, you just chased me, and I thought you were the guy from the station blackmailing me. ”

When my father heard the old man say this, he couldn't help but be very excited. He stood up, bowed deeply to the old man, and said, "Big brother, I and our baby are here to thank you." ”

"Where the is she?" "There. My father gestured to my mother, who was still sitting on the edge of the tracks. "Then let's go too. The old man said. Then my father came to my mother with the old man. As soon as my mother heard that there was a way to go to Nanchang, she was so happy that she cried and couldn't stop saying words of thanks.

When the old man saw that my parents kept saying words of thanks, and kept saying that he was a good person, and seeing that they were really pitiful, he really wanted to help to the end and send the Buddha to the west.

Therefore, after a few words of greeting, the old man asked my father, "Brother, I see that you two look like this, you may not have eaten yet, right?"

When the old man saw my father's appearance, he was obviously embarrassed to say that he had not eaten, so he looked at my father and said to her, "Brother and sister, if you don't dislike it, you and my brother can come with me to a nearby restaurant for a meal." ”

So saying, without their consent, the old man took my mother in one hand and my father in the other, crossed a railroad with one rail, walked to a dirt road on the edge of the tracks, and then walked forward again.

They had walked about a mile and saw a small restaurant in front of them. The hotel is located on the left side of a residential area, with a façade about two meters wide, and an incandescent lamp on the door frame, which illuminates the night as if it were day. Looking up further, the red plaque has a few gilded characters written on it: Fellow Noodle Restaurant.

Six rectangular tables are arranged in two rows inside the glass door, and the owner is a man, chubby, licking a big belly, looking like Maitreya Buddha.

The old man asked the shopkeeper what he had to eat. The shopkeeper replied like a cannonball: "Hot dry noodles, wozi noodles, egg noodles, shredded meat noodles." The old man turned around and asked my father what he was eating, and my father was embarrassed to answer.

The old man thought to himself: "It is very likely that my parents have been hungry since the morning, they must be thirsty and hungry, and if they eat hot dry noodles and wozi noodles, it will definitely be difficult to swallow, so I took it upon myself to ask for an egg noodle for one of them."

After eating, they offered the shopkeeper another bowl of boiling water to drink, and the old man began to teach my parents how to ride a truck.

He said: "I know there is a car bound for Wuchang, leaving at 11 o'clock in the evening. After speaking, the old man subconsciously rolled up his sleeves. I saw a green electronic watch on his white wrist.

The old man looked at it with his eyes and said, "It's only eight o'clock, just in time." When the car comes, I'll send you to the car to rest assured. "But isn't it late for you to go to your girl's house?" said my father. "It's fine. My daughter's house is not far from the station, and I can walk for half an hour to get there. With that, the old man took out the money from his trouser pocket and settled the bill with the shopkeeper.

After settling the account, he was just about to leave, and before he walked out of the store, the old man suddenly asked the shopkeeper if he still had steamed buns. The shopkeeper said yes. "Then you bring me two more steamed buns and put them in a bag. Seeing this, my father asked the old man, "Brother, haven't you eaten enough?" the old man pursed his lips and smiled, but did not speak.

Then the old man and my parents went to the railroad tracks again and sat there waiting. While waiting for the bus, they naturally have to talk about homely things. The old man asked my father why he was looking for me, and my father told him the truth.

When the old man heard this, he gave a thumbs up and said, "I didn't expect your son to be a writer." "What kind of writer? I can't even find the door to eat. The three of them chatted together when they saw a train coming by. "This one, this one!" said the old man happily to my father. The car finally stopped. When the old man saw that the train had stopped, he led my parents to the side of the train. I saw that the train was about 70 knots long, and people standing in the middle couldn't see either side at all.

The old man asked my parents to stand aside and wait for a while, and he climbed into the car in front of him and looked inside. After looking at it, he came down again, and then shook his head. Then he looked at verse 2.

In this way, the old man took the trouble to look at five or six carriages, and finally nodded to my parents on one carriage. My parents walked over, and the old man came down.

He said to my parents, "Do you know why I come to see each car? I want to find you both a suitable car to sit in." I just read a few sections, and this section is filled with soybeans, which are not yet full, and you can still show your head when you sit in it, and if you feel sleepy, you can sleep. However, if it rains, there is no way to do it. "Thank you so much, brother. Again, my father said with emotion. "Don't say that. When people don't have a difficult time, you help others when they are in difficulty, and you will only be helped by someone when you are in difficulty. The old man said.

Then he patted the dust off his body and said to my father, "Brother, brother and sister, I will send you to the car now, and it is also considered a matter of benevolence and righteousness." As for whether you can get to Nanchang or not, whether anything will happen on the road can only depend on your creation. It's not too early, and it's time for me to go to my daughter's house. “

He had not gone far when my father stopped him again. "What's the matter, brother?" Both of us are riding for the first time, I don't know where Wuchang is, if we don't sit or have sat down, it's not good. “

When the old man heard my father say this, he looked down and thought for a moment, and finally said, "Are you two literate?" and my parents shook their heads.

Then I'll write these two words for you, and you can find a comparison with the look, and you can get off when it looks like it. In addition, the train stops longer when it arrives at the station and shorter when it stops on the way, and there are fewer tracks on the way and more tracks at the station. When you see that there are a lot of tracks, and the cars stop for a long time,

And there is a platform, and there is a big iron sign on the platform, on which are written two big words 'Wuchang', which are almost the same as the two words I wrote for you, and you can get off. ”

The old man explained to my parents in detail how to get off the bus. "But we don't know what a platform is?" asked my father again.

"There are rails on both sides, and there are cement platforms that are much higher than the rails. Do you understand?" my father didn't seem to understand, but he didn't want to ask any more, so he nodded pretendly.

When the old man saw my father nodding, he said to him again, "Wait here now, and I'll come as soon as I go." With that, the old man hurried out of the train and walked quickly beyond the tracks.

After a little tea, he came over with a card written in calligraphy. It turned out that there were two big words "Wuchang" written on it.
