Beijing Capital Airport.

Lin Hong arrived at the airport more than two hours ahead of schedule, and today he is finally going to embark on the journey to the United States.

The people who sent him were his mother Feng Wan, Mu Simin, Sun Wu, and Xu Wenjing.

Lin Hong didn't like this kind of parting scene, according to his thoughts, he didn't have to see him off, he just took the airport bus alone.

Feng Wan was talking about some small things all the way, and her mother was worried, she thought she could rest assured, but at this time, she held Lin Hong's hand and refused to let go. If it weren't for Mu Simin who had been comforting her on the side, she might have really had the idea of leaving Lin Hong behind.

Sun Wu hammered Lin Hong's chest, then gave Lin Hong a bear hug, and muttered in his ear: "Hongzi, you go to the United States, remember to soak two American sisters back." ”

Lin Hong smiled and punched him back.

When it was Xu Wenjing's turn, she stepped forward and said to Lin Hong, "You participated in the WWCQ competition last time, right?" ”

"yes, why did you talk about this all of a sudden?"

"Good news for you, congratulations on winning first place in the singles group"

"Thank you. You're not here just to tell me the news, are you? Lin Hong looked at her with a mocking expression.

Xu Wenjing's face turned red, if it weren't for the presence of other people next to her, she would definitely give Lin Hong a burst of incense hammer to let him know the tragic end of joking with her sister.

"Lin Hong, have a good trip, I hope you can learn what you want in the United States"

After speaking, Xu Wenjing stepped aside.

She came here to see Lin Hong, or as a class representative, in fact, she only represented herself.

"Let's all go back, I'll be back soon." Lin Hong waved his hand very chicly.

"Brother Xiaohong, my sister hasn't said goodbye to you yet." Mu Simin, who had been comforting Feng Wan, walked up at this time, hugged Lin Hong, and directly made him blush, because his face felt the full and soft thing on the other party's chest.

Lin Hong finally broke free from Mu Simin's rich capital, he looked at Xu Wenjing with a little weakness, and saw that the other party was staring at this side with his mouth cocked.

"Hehe, brother Xiaohong, after you arrive in Beijing, remember to go and see my sister, and say hello to her for me."

"I see, I'm going to security."

Lin Hong threw down these words and dragged his suitcase and fled, and Mu Simin giggled behind him.

This suitcase originally had two large suitcases, but at Lin Hong's insistence, it was only reduced to one suitcase.

In addition, he is carrying 3,000 US dollars on him at the moment, which he ** went to the bank to exchange for him. In fact, Lin Hong's expenses for studying abroad this time are all public-funded, and the tuition and plane tickets are borne by the state, and the host family in the United States does not have to bear any expenses, so the money is only used for emergency purposes.

Lin Hong didn't want to bring so much cash, but he couldn't resist his mother's wishes.

Lin Hong is no stranger to passing through the security check, and he passed through it smoothly very easily, and before that, under the prompting of the airport staff, he had already checked in his luggage.

After passing through the security gate, Lin Hong could see a lot of foreigners, many of whom had returned to China, most of them carrying a backpack and a hat. Seeing Lin Hong alone, he smiled after being surprised. When they learned that Lin Hong was an international exchange student who went to the United States to study, they praised Lin Hong's speaking ability on the one hand, and warmly invited Lin Hong to visit their home after arriving in the United States.

Lin Hong politely refused one by one, he was not used to running to a stranger's house as soon as they met.

Of course, Lin Hong also saw many Chinese faces, and even people of the same age as him, who were probably also exchange students.

Lin Hong is not familiar with who has passed this time, he doesn't even go out during recess activities at school every day, and goes home immediately after school, only occasionally walking with Xu Wenjing after school.

"Hello, are you also going to the United States today?"

Just as Lin Hong was wandering around boredly, a warm voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Lin Hong looked back, it turned out to be the girl he met at the American Consulate before, but she didn't tie a ponytail at the moment, but her long hair was fluttering, and she was holding a book in her hand, Lin Hong glanced at it, the title of the book was "gone_with_the_wind", the English version.

"yes, that's a coincidence." Lin Hong nodded and smiled in return.

This girl gives people a very quiet feeling, and she seems to be very weak, but she has no parents around her, and she seems to have a relatively independent personality. What impressed Lin Hong the most was that her eyes were like a clear spring, clear and clear, without any trace of dirt in the world. This kind of look, Lin Hong has only seen in the eyes of a baby.

"My name is Si Qian, what's your name?"

"Lin Hong."

"Which Hong?" Si Qian blinked her clear eyes.

“… The one of the water, the one of the feathers. ”

"Oh." Si Qian nodded clearly, "Are you also an exchange student in S?" ”

"yes."

Lin Hong looked at the boarding gate in front of him, which coincided with the boarding pass in his hand, so he sat down next to Si Qian.

"Strange, how come I've never seen you before?" She closed the book gently, and there was a look of doubt in her clear eyes.

"There are so many students in the school, do you know them all?"

"Of course." Si Qian smiled, "The people I've seen generally have impressions. Also, you don't seem to know me, I'm the president of the student council in S, and I usually attend some events, and I often go to other classes, I'm sure, I've never seen you. ”

Lin Hong smiled awkwardly, he didn't expect to meet a celebrity from the school.

"I'm a transfer student, I haven't been in S for a long time, and I rarely go out on weekdays."

"No wonder. By the way, thank you for the last time. ”

"You've already thanked you."

Then, the two talked about some things in the United States.

In fact, it was mainly Si Qian who was talking, and Lin Hong had been listening quietly from the side.

Si Qian seemed to know the United States very well, and she said a lot of things that Lin Hong didn't know.

For example, Boston, which they are going to, is a very beautiful city, compared to Los Angeles and Las Vegas, it still has the best air in Boston, and there are four distinct seasons, spring and autumn are very beautiful. Boston is very close to New York, less than a three-hour drive.

The United States is a country of immigrants with a very short history, in Chinese parlance, no heritage, and the people who live there are people from all over the world. But why is the United States now the most powerful country in the world? This is because Americans know how to learn from each other's strong points and complement each other's weaknesses, absorb the advantages of all nations in the world, and in Lu Xun's words, "absorb their essence and remove their dross." It can be said that the prosperity and strength of the United States have developed on the shoulders of other nations. Most of their systems are borrowed from the systems of other countries, and they are used rationally, discarding unreasonable and unscientific ......

In addition, Si Qian also talked about American dining etiquette. Unlike Chinese chopsticks, Western food uses knives and forks, and each person's food is served on their own plate. When eating, you can't just bury your whole head on the plate, as that is considered rude, and you have to gently fork it with a fork and eat it without a sound......

Finally, Si Qian mentioned a little about the laws of the United States, such as minors are not allowed to drink in bars, and when minors are in the car, the people in the car are not allowed to smoke, otherwise it is a violation of American law.

Lin Hong listened very carefully, the information was very practical, and he might use it soon.

"Si Qian, have you been to the United States before?" Lin Hong was curious why she knew so much about them.

Si Qian shook her head: "No, some of them are what I heard from others, and most of the content is what I saw from books, I have done my homework." ”

She picked up the book in her hand and shook it, saying that she had read a lot of books about the United States before that, such as "Basic Western Etiquette", "American Civil War", "American History" and so on.

She loves to read and never forgets to take a book with her wherever she goes.

Although Lin Hong also likes to read, he didn't think of reading some materials about the United States first, which is indeed a bit ill-considered.

And this time, in order to simplify the ceremony, he basically didn't bring all the books, and the suitcase was full of some clothes, as well as gifts for the host family members.

Then, the two talked about the situation of the host family in the United States.

Si Qian's host family, the male host is a surgeon, the hostess is a lawyer, both born and raised citizens in the United States, they have an only daughter, fifteen years old this year, is a talented girl with musical talent, and a member of a famous band in the school, she is the lead singer.

Si Qian has spoken to each other on the phone many times, and the two can talk very well.

Time passed as they chatted, and soon the announcer's voice sounded over the hall radio as their flight began to board. Everyone got up from their seats, consciously lined up, handed their boarding passes to the staff for inspection, and then entered the plane through the boarding lane.

Lin Hong had just read Si Qian's boarding pass, and the seats of the two of them were not connected, and it was likely that the two of them would never see each other again after getting on the plane.

When queuing, Si Qian took out a bookmark from the book in her hand, put it on the cover of the book, then took out a pen from her small bag, handed the book and pen to Lin Hong, and said softly:

"Your host home address."

Lin Hong took it and wrote his address truthfully.

Then, Si Qian took out a pink bookmark, quickly wrote the address of her host family on it, and handed it to Lin Hong.

"When you arrive in the U.S., stay in touch, and if you have time, you're welcome to come and see me."
