Chapter 14: Returning Home
Su Musha gave the boss 100 yuan, asked him to drive her to the nearest long-distance bus station, and left Xu Xiaobai 1,000 yuan before leaving, so that he could take it as the travel fee. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info zombies are rampant.,I don't know what's going on in the city now.,It's definitely impossible to go back to your residence.,Maybe it's still zombies rampant on the side of your residence now.,Even if the army has controlled the scene and eliminated the zombies.,That place must be under martial law now.,I will definitely be subjected to strict interrogation and high attention when I go back now.。
He dispelled the idea of going back to have a look, spent 50 yuan to ask the boss to buy a charger for the mobile phone, stepped on a light motorcycle and suddenly walked west. The town where his parents' home is located is 500 kilometers west of the imperial capital, and with this small motorcycle, it should be there in seven or eight hours of driving, but there are two problems, one is that gasoline needs to be replenished halfway, and the other is to get on the highway. Provincial roads are winding and winding, which will invisibly add a lot of distance, and it is wise to take the highway.
It's common sense that motorcycles can't go on high speeds. But there are always exceptions to everything, now all the traffic police have been sent to martial law around the city, there is no police on this highway at all, there is a toll booth on duty to collect fees, but the sisters didn't have time to react at all, Xu Xiaobai's small motorcycle has rushed to the highway along the side of the railing, and the dust is gone.
Don't look at our small car, we have strong mobility! He thought to himself that after getting on the highway, it was extremely smooth, and occasionally a car whizzed by, and the driver of the car looked at his light motorcycle in amazement, probably not seen this thing for a long time. He didn't have to compete with these drivers, he had been running wildly in the emergency lane, and the small motorcycle was full of horsepower, rushing up to 70 miles, all the way to the wind!
From noon to evening, the small motorcycle has run out of 300 kilometers, and the gasoline in several gasoline barrels is almost exhausted, Xu Xiaobai turned on his mobile phone to search for the next rest stop, and found that it was 50 kilometers ahead, so he hurriedly stepped up, he wanted to go to the rest station to refuel. It took about half an hour to get to the rest stop, filled up a tank of gas, filled a few more gasoline barrels, ate something indiscriminately, and saw that it was already dark, he hurried to leave, and wanted to set off quickly. But when I touched the fuel tank, it was very hot. I thought that the original design positioning of this small motorcycle was a scooter, not for long-distance travel, but don't drive too hard, and it broke down halfway. There is no shop in front of the village on this highway, and everything will be closed if it breaks down.
He locked the car, and ran to the small restaurant in the service area to sit and rest, the rest station was full of people, it was very hot in summer, the smell of sweat on people's bodies was emanating, and the smell was not very good, but the smell in Xu Xiaobai's nose made him extremely relieved. This is the beautiful world, the world of the living, zombies or something, stay away from me!
Take a break and continue on the road, with the motorcycle's headlights illuminating the road ahead. After another 4 hours of trekking, the small motorcycle finally sent him to his door. He went up the stairs, walked to the familiar doorway, and knocked lightly.
Footsteps were heard inside, and a middle-aged woman opened the door. Xu Xiaobai hugged the woman in his arms, making the woman a little confused, and patted his head gently: "What's the matter, stupid son?" I haven't been back for half a year, and I want to be homesick like this? ”
Xu Xiaobai let go of his mother and stepped into his home, and a long-lost sense of intimacy came to him. His father was watching TV and turned to say hello to him, and his mother said, "The rice is still hot in the pot, you and you will talk first, and the food will be ready soon." ”
Xu Xiaobai went to the sofa, the whole person seemed to be paralyzed in the sofa, and his father glared at him: "I've been working for three years, why don't you stand and sit together!" In the past, if his father said this, Xu Xiaobai would definitely argue with him, but now he only felt that his father's majestic words sounded so kind and touching. He didn't speak, with a satisfied expression on his face, and just slumped and snorted comfortably.
His father didn't seem to blame him much as usual, and instead of continuing to blame him, he asked softly, "Tired?" Busy at work? ”
"It's okay......" Xu Xiaobai said perfunctorily. It didn't take long for his mother to set up the meal and come over to beckon him to eat. Xu Xiaobai got up, sat down at the table and devoured it, his mother looked at him beside him, and said distressedly: "How did you lose weight like this, I told you not to work hard in a big city like the imperial capital, how good it is to go back to our hometown, if you are disobedient, you are disobedient." ”
While eating, Xu Xiaobai said vaguely: "If you don't go back, I'm going to stay at home this time." I'll go find a job tomorrow. ”
The mother was about to continue talking to herself, when she suddenly stopped talking and looked at him in a daze: "What are you talking about?" ”
Xu Xiaobai swallowed all the food in his mouth and wiped his mouth: "I said that I won't go back to the imperial capital, I have already resigned from my job, and I will go to the talent market tomorrow to find a job, and I will live at home in the future." ”
He had already made up his mind not to return to the imperial capital, the people in the company had already died, that job was equivalent to nothing, and the bad experience of the last night in the imperial capital made him have a great psychological rejection of that place. Think about it, it's better to be at home, even if there is something, you can deal with it with your parents. But he is not ready to tell his parents about the zombies, it will only make them worried, and the government may pay attention to him when it spreads, so it is better not to do this kind of trouble-making thing.
The mother shouted loudly to the father in the living room: "Lao Xu, stop watching TV, come here, our son said he wants to resign!" ”
The father got up from the sofa with a swipe on the ground, walked to the restaurant in three steps and two steps, asked the reason, frowned and said to Xu Xiaobai: "Are you angry in the unit?" ”
After graduating that year, he went to work in the imperial capital, but his mother disagreed, but his father was fully supportive, and he felt that young people should go to the big city to see the world, so as to read the sage books for so many years. At this moment, I heard that Xu Xiaobai had resigned, and he himself came from a young age, thinking that this child must have been wronged in the unit, so he resigned in a fit of anger.
Xu Xiaobai knew his father's thoughts, and hurriedly explained in detail: "The pressure of life in the imperial capital is too great, and there are too many outstanding talents, and my ability is not enough to see there." That job is a dead salary every month, there is no future, I can't afford to buy a house if I want to, and I can't marry a daughter-in-law if I want to. I'd better go home, find a solid job, and work slowly. ”
The mother is naturally happy, and it has always been her dream to have her son by her side. Although the father was a little displeased, he thought that this was the result of the child's careful consideration, which proved that although the child did not agree with his own ideas, he still grew up and had his own opinions. He finally agreed with his son's idea and said, "You just came back, you are not familiar with the place, what kind of job can you find, tomorrow I will ask a few old friends to help you inquire and see what kind of job is suitable for you." ”
Xu Xiaobai gave his father a thumbs up: "Dad is mighty!" ”
His father glared at him angrily, turned his head and went to check the phone book.
After eating and taking a bath, Xu Xiaobai lay down on her small bed steadily, feeling the sense of security brought by the soft pillow and mattress, and a trace of peace surged in her heart: Su Musha doesn't know if she has arrived in Inner Mongolia now, although she can't use her special abilities, but with her ability, general difficulties shouldn't be difficult for her...... It's so comfortable...... What zombies, what exchange system, stay away from me. Xiao Ye just wants to live a safe and stable life now. Just live in this small county town, and never go to a dangerous place like the imperial capital again. How nice it is to be a normal person......
