On the train back to Beijing from Lhasa, Zhao Xiaocui sat alone by the window and looked out the window. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Passengers are bustling inside, there are tourists, Tibetans and lamas, the empty carriages are filled in an instant, Zhao Xiaocui is still reminiscing about the trip when the train slowly drove out of Lhasa station. When she got up to take a glass of water and came back, she found that the seat had been occupied, so she had to go sideways to the lower bunk and squeeze together with everyone, a kind old man sat quietly on the quilt in the innermost, and the little girl next to her rummaged in her backpack for a long time, and said to the boy opposite: "Brother, do you still have coffee at that?" The boy also opened the bag in response, flipped it up, took out two bags of coffee, handed the girl a bag, and also gave Zhao Xiaocui a bag, Zhao Xiaocui took it embarrassedly and said shyly: "Thank you." ”

"You're also here to play in Tibet?" The boy asked.

"Well, yes, I've been playing for almost a week, and so are you."

"Yes, we too, we met in Sichuan, she chose to ride, and I rode with two other friends."

"Wow, then you guys are very good, how long does it take to ride from Sichuan to Lhasa?"

"We rode slowly, in 26 days, and we were able to ride in 20 days when we were fast on the road."

"Hey, you're amazing, but you can't see the traces of riding, I've seen a lot of people riding on the Internet who are a little miserable."

"Hahaha, it means that we are well protected, but there is a buddy who has a serious sunburn, you will know when you see it in a while."

"Hey, what are you talking about? So energetic? The girl jumped back from the water and asked excitedly.

"She also played in Tibet." The boy glanced at Zhao Xiaocui and said to the girl.

"Really, really? Are you on your own? ”

"Well, I'm alone, but I'm playing with a few friends in the hostel."

As he spoke, there were two more black and strong young men, one of whom was indeed more seriously sunburned, the skin on his lips was completely cracked, and both cheeks were chapped, and as soon as the two men entered, the originally small carriage immediately became more crowded, and everyone moved to each other and sat next to each other, and the old man also owed his body to make some room for the young man, and he had been listening to everyone, but he had remained silent. Suddenly, a Tibetan boy also squeezed in and said in Chinese, which was not very fluent: "Are you all traveling in Tibet?" ”

"yes, what about you?"

"We are here for the pilgrimage, this is my family, and as he spoke, he took out his mobile phone for everyone to see, and the family took a family photo together with a smile."

"Do you come to Lhasa every year?"

"Yes, I have to come every year, and I give my family's cattle and sheep to a friend to take care of our family, and we usually come for about 1 month."

"Where is your home?"

"Qinghai Guoluo Tibetan area, do you know?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Our place is very beautiful, you can go there to play when you have time, I will treat you well."

"Okay."

The Tibetan young man is very enthusiastic and sincere, chatting with everyone about everything, Zhao Xiaocui is also the first time to understand that the life of the original Tibetans is like this, every day to live a grazing life of cattle and sheep but not out of touch with this society, modern facilities have long been deep into Tibetan areas, mobile phones, notebooks, etc. have gradually become their essential daily necessities, and the only thing that remains unchanged is that they have been exposed to Buddhism since childhood has become a way of life. A beautiful Tibetan girl came over and said something to the young man in Tibetan, and the Tibetan young man introduced to everyone: "This is my sister" and "you also say hello to everyone" and turned to her sister and said, my sister nodded at everyone very shyly, and the young man said: "There are very few people over there who can speak Chinese, and it is good to stumble like me, my sister will not say anything at all, she just told me that my grandma called me to go over for dinner, I will leave first, and I will come back to talk to you." ”

"Okay, I'll see you later, let's go slowly." Everyone excitedly sent off the Tibetan brother, and several people ate instant noodles together and chatted, and the time passed.

This train all the way to the east is like this, every station will have a lot of people get off, familiar people go down, strangers come up, when the train passes through Lanzhou, you can feel a strong urban atmosphere, in Tibet when the tranquility and tranquility are left behind, the girl in the same carriage also began to be depressed, a morning on the car lying on the mouth has been muttering "I want to go back to Lhasa, I want to go back to Lhasa......" said and tears came down, the boy gave her a pack of tissues to comfort her:" Isn't there still my brother in Beijing? Just ask me for anything. The girl cried even more, and after half an hour, she came down from the bunk and her eyes were red and swollen, Zhao Xiaocui looked at her like this, and suddenly she was surrounded by a kind of melancholy, remembering that she sat in the Jokhang Temple Square every day in Lhasa City with nothing to do and basked in the sun, listening to the monks in Sera Temple, and living a simple and happy life; But as long as I returned to Beijing, it was a bunch of tedious things, and when my head just touched the edge of my new job, I took the initiative to stop thinking. Zhao Xiaocui patted the girl's shoulder with a slight sympathy, "It's okay, we're all the same." The girl raised her head and looked at her, her eyes were full of thanks, Zhao Xiaocui knew that she had become friends with this girl, oh, by the way, this girl's name is Xiaohua, and the brother in her mouth is called Li Xiang. Before the three of them got off the bus, they went to the dining car to have a big meal together, which was the end of this journey and the beginning of their friendship with each other.

Back at the place where she lived, Zhao Xiaocui took a hot shower, burst out with the flow of emotions suppressed in her heart, sorted out her emotions and went to the new company to report the next day.

Zhao Xiaocui arrived at the company at 10 o'clock the next morning, and the new unit takes 45 minutes to take the subway from where she lives, which is a little farther than the previous company, but the work time is an hour late, so she does not have to suffer from the morning rush hour. When she arrived at the company, she found that the workstation had been cleaned by the cleaning aunt, and the laptops on the table had been placed, and an A4 paper was pressed underneath, with each application for office supplies remarked.

There was basically nothing to do in the morning, and no one looked for her, so Zhao Xiaocui flipped through it and downloaded the company's APP, and the application was "quite interesting". When it was almost noon, a girl came over and said to her: "Lao Liu, let me call you to go to dinner together" The girl said while glancing at an office on the other side of the aisle, only to see a clean boy walking out, Zhao Xiaocui recognized at a glance that this was her first interviewer and her direct leader, "Let's go, why are you still stunned?" When the boy walked by Zhao Xiaocui's side, he said, Zhao Xiaocui and the girl walked out of the office area with him arm in arm, and when they arrived at the restaurant, Zhao Xiaocui realized that she was not invited alone, but the entire department had arrived.

"Okay, everyone, the newcomers in our department are in place today, let's have a meal together at noon to get to know each other, everyone don't have to be restrained to have a cheerful icebreaker." The boy said loudly, a burst of applause accompanied by a "good, good" echo, to be honest, Zhao Xiaocui didn't understand what it meant to break the ice at all, she could only watch quietly what everyone should do.

The first to stand up was a boy, he raised the water cup very boldly and poured it into himself and said: "Hello everyone, my name is Meng Yu, 23 years old this year, not old or young, doing foreign cooperation, basically inexperienced, please give me more advice!" ”

"Hey, this young man is the same as my job" Zhao Xiaocui thought to herself, and soon the introduction was completed in a circle, Zhao Xiaocui also knew that there are currently two friends under her, a boy and a girl, and they are responsible for foreign cooperation together in a group of three, Zhao Xiaocui was excited and nervous, excited that her career had taken a step forward, and she was nervous that she had never brought anyone, especially a newcomer, she was a little uneasy about this, but everything has a first time, everyone has to go through this step, and cross the river by feeling the stones.
