Chapter 2 Trains
In Tongchuan County, Fan Wan walked on the way to the train station with a backpack on his back, and 5 minutes after going out, he came up with a pack of Chaotianmen at a small cigarette stall with lights on the street.
It feels so cool to give money, Fan Wan feels that the most enjoyable thing in life is this, he skillfully opened the cigarette case, took out a stick and put it in his mouth, in fact, his home is a little far away from the train station, but now the sky is not yet bright, the bus is not working, in Tongchuan County, the bus generally does not until more than 6 o'clock, and the students will only depart when they go to self-study in the morning, so Fan Wan has no way at all.
He can also do taxis, but the taxi drivers in Tongchuan County know him, Fan Zhengmin's son, who went to the train station with a bag before dawn in the morning, and a fool knows what to do.
You must know that Fan Zhengmin, the uncompetitive son, is still very famous in the circle of taxi drivers, and the typical negative teaching materials are often put on the lips of these old drivers and then go back to educate their children.
You don't read? Then you are just like Fan Zhengmin and his son.
Like Fan Wan? You're going to starve to death for the rest of your life! Gangsters!
Don't let me see you playing with Fan Zhengmin and his son, otherwise Lao Tzu will have to beat you to death.
It can be seen that Fan Wan's reputation is very poor, and he doesn't even have much face with Fan Zhengmin, men, especially big men like Fan Zhengmin who have lived for decades, his wife is dead again, and the only thing left is this son, and now his son is not angry, and his old face is also disgraced.
Therefore, Fan Zhengmin can no longer be described as disappointed with his son.
Fan Wan was walking on the road, he was not sad at this time, child!
16-year-old is actually still a student, how sad can he be, after a short period of nostalgia, all that remains is his ambition to go out, but Fan Wan is not stupid, because he knows that if he wants to gain a foothold in this society, he can't do it without money.
A person like him who just went out took out the old bottom of 465 yuan from the photo album, plus the remaining 1 yuan and 5 cents, excluding the 5 yuan he bought just now, there was a total of 461 yuan and 5 cents left.
Seeing that there was no way, how many meters did he go out, and the money began to decrease, Fan Wan knew that he had to have a plan in order to let himself really go on.
Thinking of this, Fan Wan took out another cigarette, looked at the distant train station, and strode away.
Fan Zhengmin didn't know at this time that his only son had run away from home, he was the only one in the dark room who was still sleeping, and he had to get up again tomorrow morning to open a taxi, no way, this was his only way to make money, without driving a taxi, he and Fan Wan would both starve to death.
At this time, Fan Wan had already arrived at the train station, and he had to take the fastest train to go, although he knew that his father would not come to him, but who could be sure of this kind of thing?
If Fan Zhengmin suddenly wanted to arrest him on a whim, then everything Fan Wan had done before would be in vain!
So, it's too early.
At this time, there was a queue at the ticket gate of the train station, Fan Wan saw a lot of people who went out to the world with big bags and small bags like herself, most of these people were in their 40s, and they looked honest, and after 2000, they could often see such people appear in places with large passenger flows, most of them came from the countryside, in groups of three or five, dragging their families with their mouths.
Fan Wan is a child on the street, in other words, a city person, and a farmer, but although he is dressed like a city person at this time, his fate is similar to that of these people who go out to work.
It's even worse.
At this time, there was no display screen in the hall of the railway station, so Fan Wan could only go to the ticket window to ask.
Finally it was his turn, lifting the heavy backpack, Fan Wan walked up, the conductor was an aunt in her forties, Fan Wan asked without raising her head after Fan Wan passed.
"Where?"
Where to? Fan Wan himself didn't know that he grew up in Tongchuan County, and the farthest place he had ever been to was Rongcheng, which was 200 kilometers away from home, and it was his father's developed relative who married his daughter, which was the first time Fan Wan went out and saw a big city for the first time.
However, Fan Wan is not the kind of turtle who knows nothing, he also knows what are the most developed cities in the motherland, but he only has a few hundred yuan on him, and he wants to save some money.
The conductor saw Fan Wan standing there stupidly, his face was quite impatient, and he sat there and looked up and squinted.
"What about you? Where to? ”
"Oh, go to Hangzhou, Hangzhou!" Fan Wan was yelled at by the ticketing aunt, and subconsciously blurted out, in fact, he didn't know why he said the word Hangzhou, maybe he longed for this place in his heart, Hangzhou, I read it in textbooks when I was in school, the beautiful scenery of West Lake, and Xu Xian and the White Lady in the TV series.
After hearing this, the conductor began to check the tickets, in fact, for Fan Wan, this was the first step for him to get out of Tongchuan County, but for the ticket sales aunt, it has long been commonplace.
However, just when Fan Wan began to dream of going to Hangzhou to live, the ticketing aunt suddenly poured a scoop of cold water on him.
"The ticket to Hangzhou is gone!"
"None?" Fan Wan was a little dumbfounded, leaning her head in front of the stage and staring at the ticket sales aunt, as if she was saying that you don't lie to me on your dog day, this is just longing, you will sue me for no ticket.
Isn't that teasing me?
"When will there be a ticket?" Fan Wan also knew that it was impossible for others to deceive him, but he still wanted to ask if he was unwilling.
"It's sold out early, and if you have any more tickets, you'll have to wait until the day after tomorrow, why don't you come back the day after tomorrow!" The eyes of the ticket sales aunt bypassed Fan Wan and looked at the long queue behind her, and said casually.
"The day after tomorrow?" Fan Wan won't wait until the day after tomorrow to leave, after all, the decision he finally made was packed up by himself.
If you really can't help it, you have to go somewhere else.
The ticket sales aunt saw Fan Wan's face embarrassed, and she also knew that the child was probably in a hurry to leave, looking at this age, it was estimated that he was about the same as her son, but it was pitiful enough to go out to work at such a young age.
"Why don't you buy a ticket to Ningbo first, and then transfer to Hangzhou when you get to Ningbo, which is close!"
Fan Wan has naturally heard of Ningbo, which is a city near the sea and close to Hangzhou, there is no way, Fan Wan can only do this now.
Then it is to give the ID card, pay the money, and get the ticket, because there is no hard seat for the ticket to Ningbo, and the sleeper is too expensive Fan Wan will not choose, so he can only buy a standing ticket for 88 yuan, that is, standing all the way, no seat.
After buying the ticket, Fan Wan put the ID card away, this thing is his own identity certificate, you must not lose it, you can only take the household registration book to do it, this document is also at the beginning of this year when Fan Wan went to the police station to handle it, many children in Tongchuan County are about 16 years old to handle the ID card, I believe that many places in the country are the same, Fan Wan used to feel nothing, but this time when he went out, he really realized the usefulness of this thing.
Sitting in the waiting hall with a backpack, Fan Wan looked at the time, and there were still about 2 hours before the departure.
Waiting is difficult, especially Fan Wan, a child who goes out for the first time and runs away from home, helplessness and hesitation occupy most of the world in his heart, but Fan Wan is not a pretentious person, he took out a pen and notebook, and wrote down the first account in his life.
Buy a pack of Chaotianmen, 5 yuan.
The ticket to Ningbo is 88 yuan.
There are 373 pieces of 5 cents left.
Then Fan Wan used 3 yuan and 5 cents to buy two packs of Fumanduo's instant noodles, a bottle of mineral water and a pack of tissues, which was spent on them for more than 1 day on the train.
There are a lot of people coming and going, Fan Wan saw a few boys who were slightly older than herself, it seemed that they often worked outside, dyed with cool yellow hair, a Walkman stuffed in his pocket, and shook his head with headphones, Fan Wan's eyes showed a trace of envy, he was not envious of the yellow hair, but envy of the Walkman with the tape, Fan Wan wanted to buy one herself, but unfortunately she had no money, so she could only watch.
Two hours is extremely short for Fan Wan on weekdays, a few cigarettes, a game or two, passed in the blink of an eye.
But for the current Fan Wan, these two hours are like going to prison, he has lived in this city like a prison cell for 16 years, and now he has the opportunity to escape, and he is naturally enthusiastic.
Time passed minute by minute, Fan Wan's father Fan Zhengmin also got up, saw the note left by Fan Wan, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he threw it aside nonchalantly, and then washed his face and went out, and the day's driver life began again.
At this time, Fan Wan also got on the train to Ningbo, standing in the smoking area of the train corridor, looking enviously at the people who were sitting on the seats to make up for sleep, of course, more noisy.
The women's discussions, the children's cries, the big men's talks, and a few men who stayed in the corridor like Fan Wan, their eyes seemed a little hollow and smoky, and only by putting the cigarette in their hands in their mouths and taking a hard puff could they see a moment of satisfaction on their faces.
Gone in a flash.
"Where are you going, boy?" Staying next to Fan Wan was a man in his thirties, with a smile on his face, and handed over a cigarette.
"Ningbo!" Fan Wan took it and glanced at the other party, a suitcase, a big backpack, it seemed that it was not the first time to go far away, Fan Wan put the cigarette in her mouth, pretending not to care.
The middle-aged man didn't think what Fan Wan's attitude was, he had seen a lot of such people, but he just saw that Fan Wan was so young and hadn't done any hard work, so he was probably a child who had just gone out.
How did Fan Wan know that her pretending to be calm and being an old-fashioned person had been seen through by others.
It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles,
It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read countless people.
Sometimes people always like to disguise themselves in the way they like, which is a kind of subconscious self-protection, but it is also easy for others to see.
