Chapter 45: Embarking on the Journey
One morning, the three of them were doing these bits and pieces, and by noon it was almost over, so they contacted Wang Hai to plan to have lunch together. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
didn't expect Wang Hai to have something, so the three of them solved it at the noodle restaurant on the side.
During the meal, Brother Wang asked Cheng Lin and the others, "Where are you going?" ”
Since Cheng Lin and him are not very familiar with each other, Wang Zhenjie told him.
After listening to this, Brother Wang also sighed with emotion: "I really envy you, I don't have such a good life!" ”
"Haha, big brother, do you want to go together? It's even more lively with multiple people! Don't you still want to travel around China by bike? ”
When many people are young, especially in high school, they have the dream of traveling around the world or around China.
Brother Wang also had this dream at the beginning, but it was delayed due to various reasons, and this delay has been delayed for nearly 30 years now.
When Wang Zhenjie mentioned this again, he was also very emotional, and said lightly: "Yes! I had such a dream at the beginning, but unfortunately I never had the courage to realize it! Now, I don't have that feeling anymore! ”
If you have a dream that you don't realize, even if this dream is just a matter of your own thoughts, it can't help but make people feel a lot of emotion.
It's like walking on a big road that can only go in and can't go back, walking and walking, and one day suddenly turning around and finding that you seem to have missed a beautiful path, but when you want to turn back, you find that the back road has been broken. You can only look at the scenery there with greedy eyes, and you can't go up and enjoy it carefully.
"What? Haven't you been at home lately, so you might as well go out for a few months, right? Wang Zhenjie knew that his eldest brother was originally working in a big city, but he hadn't gone out since he came back on May Day, and he definitely wouldn't go out again now that it's been this month.
Now there is still half a year to go until the Chinese New Year, and he occasionally goes to sea with people at home, which is indeed better than going out with himself.
I can't say that I can't catch some wave-fighting fish or anything, but he has been out to sea several times.
Brother Wang was also a little moved by Wang Zhenjie's words in his heart, and wanted to try his dream when he was young and go for a walk in the great mountains and rivers of the motherland, but when he thought of his own problem, he could only sigh and say, "Xiaojie, do you know why I didn't go out when I came back this time?" ”
"I don't know, it's not going well outside?" Wang Zhenjie has always been concerned about this matter, always afraid that his eldest brother will be fired from the company or something, if this is really the case, it will be embarrassing.
But now that he mentioned this topic first, Wang Zhenjie asked carefully.
"Hehe, I'm still quite happy in the company, and I still have a chance to be promoted to manager next year, but you also know my age, in the first half of the year, my mother made five or six calls almost every month. He said he cared about my life, but in fact, he wanted to ask if I had a girlfriend! After talking a lot in one breath, Brother Wang also took a breath, ate something and said again.
"You're so old, you know that your girlfriend depends on fate, how can you find it if you want to? So my mother couldn't stand it, and when she said that she was old, and everyone in the village was married, I couldn't stand it and said that I could come back on a blind date! It's good now, as soon as I come back, I'll go on a blind date or something, and I've been getting it until now! Alas......"
seemed to be full of fear of the word blind date, Brother Wang shook his head as he spoke, looking miserable.
Cheng Lin couldn't feel such a mood, but Wang Zhenjie patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yes, bitter!" ”
So the two brothers actually ordered a bottle of burnt knives, ordered a few more dishes, and pulled Cheng Lin, who looked confused, to drink.
The more he drank, the more unhappy he felt, and Brother Wang said again: "You say, is thirty years old considered old?" There are a lot of people in the city outside who are in their forties and married, and there are even many of them who will never get married in their lives, why does my mother force me? ”
"Yes, I'm twenty-seven years old, and my dad was going to arrange a blind date for me some time ago. No, it just happened that Xiao Linzi came over, so it was delayed! Why do you think I'm running? I'm afraid of this! Say no more, come on, drink! ”
Wang Zhenjie was also a little drunk, and he said a lot of annoyance, and he looked like he was deeply affected anyway.
Cheng Lin was also puzzled and said, "What's wrong with the blind date?" Isn't it just to meet the big girl? What are you afraid of! ”
"Shut up and drink!" Wang Zhenjie was not happy when he saw that Cheng Lin, a little kid, didn't understand and was still talking cool things, and said to him with a red face.
"Oh, come, drink!"
As soon as he heard this, Cheng Lin completely gave up the idea of interjecting, and simply brought up the rhythm and let them hurt each other. (The author reminds that it is best not to drink too much, the author Jun was also the amount of three catties of burning knives back then, and now there is a problem with the stomach after drinking a few big ones!) )
So under his rhythm from time to time, Wang Zhenjie and Brother Wang were both drunk.
He was still very proud when he checked out, and today he finally took revenge, and he was in a good mood!
But when I wanted to leave, I found that I couldn't walk, and the two of them were lying on the table, unable to pull and drag away.
He also felt a little sleepy after drinking some wine at noon, so he found a place to sleep on his stomach after talking to the boss.
As for the safety issue, don't worry, the noodle shop is next to the fishing tackle shop, Wang Zhenjie is very familiar with the owner of this shop, and there will be no problems with his help.
The three of them were the first to get up to Cheng Lin, but it was more than four o'clock when they saw the time, so they patted the two who were still sleeping: "Hey, wake up, wake up, it's time to get up!" ”
After some shouting, the two were finally woken up by him.
After Wang Zhenjie got up, he still rubbed his sore arm and asked him in a daze: "What's wrong?" Have you eaten well? ”
"It's good to eat early! It's four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's time to get up! ”
"Khan, I said my feet and arms are so numb!"
Back at the fishing tackle shop next to him, Cheng Lin made a pot of tea for everyone to relieve hangover.
Brother Wang drank tea and suddenly remembered a question and asked, "When are you leaving?" ”
"Uh...... It seems like tomorrow, right? Wang Zhenjie was stunned, he originally planned to help take care of the store door in the morning, prepare equipment in the afternoon, and set off tomorrow morning, but now it is estimated that it will be a little hanging tomorrow morning.
So he turned his head and asked Cheng Lin: "Xiaolinzi, or tomorrow?" ”
"Tomorrow! Haven't we seen the weather forecast, the weather will be good across the country in the next few days, or take the morning! Cheng Lin drank tea and expressed his opinion.
Cheng Lin is not afraid of anything else when he goes out, what he is most afraid of is rain.
If nothing else happens when it rains, it's inconvenient to fish, right? It's inconvenient to travel wet, right? Is there a danger of landslide?
In short, it is very annoying when it rains, but he still likes the sun, even if the temperature is high, he still thinks the sun is good!
"You're leaving tomorrow, aren't you? Got everything ready? ”
"No, I was thinking about preparing it in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to get drunk!"
Wang Zhenjie's words made Brother Wang a little embarrassed, and he proposed to drink at noon, so he said: "Hurry up, I'll help you get it together, so as not to find that you didn't bring this and that when you go on the road tomorrow!" ”
"Good!"
The three soldiers were divided into two ways, Wang Zhenjie and his eldest brother prepared commonly used bait and fishing gear in the store, while Cheng Lin went back to clean up his things.
In fact, he didn't have anything, just some clothes to wash, and then put away the fishing rod or something.
When he returned to the fishing tackle shop an hour later, he found that Wang Zhenjie and the others were resting, and they didn't seem to know where to buy some bayberry to eat.
Doesn't make sense so fast, right?
So he asked, "Brother Wang, are you all ready?" ”
"Alright!" Wang Zhenjie ate the bayberry he had just bought, and said vaguely.
Bayberry is a good thing, and the calcium, phosphorus, and iron content in its fruit is higher than that of other fruits, but if you eat too much, your teeth will be sour.
Cheng Lin also likes bayberry, and a few trees have been planted in the mountains behind his house, and it is estimated that they should be mature now.
Pick one up and put it in your mouth, and while eating, say, "Raincoat and rain pants, cooking tools, tents, fishing platforms or something?" ”
"It's all ready, just waiting for your car! By the way, drive your car tomorrow or mine? ”
Cheng Lin was also relieved when he was ready, and said, "Just drive mine, there's no need to drive it all!" ”
After eating bayberry, everyone moved everything to Cheng Lin's car.
After everything was done, Cheng Lin said with emotion: "It's good that I bought this car, otherwise it's really hard to bring so many things!" ”
After speaking, he was a little tired when he saw a few people, so he looked at the time and asked Wang Zhenjie to call Wang Hai and have a meal together in the evening.
I ate some noodles and drinks at noon, and now it's about six o'clock, and Wang Zhenjie is also hungry so he readily agrees.
Dinner is still the same old place, and it is still the same seafood shop!
At the dinner table, Wang Hai was still telling Wang Zhenjie, saying: "Xiaojie, you have to be careful outside, you say that you are so much older than Xiao Linzi, but after all, you have never been far away, if you have any problems, discuss with Xiao Linzi, and the two of you must form a group!" ”
This time, Wang Zhenjie rarely did not contradict him, but said to his old man: "Don't worry, your son is not so stupid!" Besides, I'm not going abroad or anything, I'm just shopping in China, it's okay! ”
"Uncle Wang, don't worry, we will be careful!" Cheng Lin also said.
Then Wang Hai babbled a lot, and Wang Zhenjie and Cheng Lin both listened honestly.
After he finished speaking, the atmosphere was heated up again under the drive of Brother Wang, although Cheng Lin drank a little at noon, and he was a little sick to his stomach when he smelled the wine at night, but he knew that this was a practice of wine, and he also proudly held the wine glass and touched it.
In the end, when he wanted to pay the bill, he was stopped by Wang Hai and refused to let him pay, saying that this meal should be practiced for them as an uncle, so why should he pay for it?
After being pulled back, Cheng Lin sued again and again, and the result was that he was fined three cups!
Of course, Wang Hai also drank three glasses with him.
In order to avoid getting drunk and affecting tomorrow's trip, several people were not drunk, and when they were almost drunk, they sat in the private room and chatted for a while, and then dispersed.
Cheng Lin was idle at night, and he made porridge for Zhu Jia for a while before falling asleep.
