Chapter 83: Distant Thoughts

Zuo Jun and they just arrived at the construction site today, and did not arrange work in the afternoon, he did not wait until three or four o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, and waited until Xiao Yue returned to the construction site accompanied by the male employee

It wasn't until another half an hour later that Xiao Yue walked out of the project manager's office with red eyes and the employee who accompanied her out, Zuo Jun didn't dare to provoke Xiao Yue, but asked the male colleague: "What's wrong with her?" ”

The one replied stupidly: "We went out without permission and came back late, which made the leader worried and anxious, and after he called us in to ask about the situation, he severely criticized her!" ”

"Oh, then why don't you criticize only her?"

The male colleague leaned over his shoulder and said, "What does this have to do with me?" It was she who called me out, and she couldn't come back because she was out playing, what could I do, I couldn't find my way back to the construction site, and I didn't understand the language of the locals. ”

As soon as Zuo Jun heard the other party say such things, he felt that he was too ungentleman, even if Xiao Yue was willful and playful, he shouldn't push himself away and let a girl take care of everything, right?

He went to see Xiao Yue again, and Xiao Yue returned to the reference room at this time, lying on the bed board that had just been laid out in the morning, covering her face and crying her nose.

Zuo Jun saw that her door was not plugged in, so he did not rush to push the door in, but knocked lightly on the door first

Xiao Yue didn't know who Lu Dao was, she quickly walked up, and quickly wiped her eyes and said, "Who?" Come in! ”

When Zuo Jun pushed the door and walked in, her pretty face became stiff again, and she asked coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Xiao Xiao. You have to look at it, and the manager is good for you. I heard that it was not peaceful outside, and there were often kidnappings and assassinations by anti-government figures. And a lot of them are aimed at us foreigners, so you have to be careful! ”

"Is that what you're here to tell me?"

"No, no, no, I still have a little bit of a small matter, can you do me a little favor?"

"What do you want me to do?"

Zuo Jun was a little embarrassed to say it, but he had to say: "I want to write a letter to my girlfriend in China, but I have neither stationery, nor envelopes and stamps, I want to ask you to buy some back." ”

As soon as Xiao Yue heard this, she immediately remembered that at noon, he gave himself a 'soft nail'. So he snorted and said, "Didn't you see that I was punished for going out of the city?" Do I dare to go out again? You too, you've only been out of the country for a few days, and you're anxious about your girlfriend? ”

"Xiao Xiao, I have to report to her that I am safe now, I hid something from her when I came, for fear that something would happen to her." Zuo Jun hurriedly explained.

Xiao Yue whitened his eyes for a moment, and then said in a somewhat disdainful tone: "What will happen to her in the country?" You can't let go of yourself, right? Leaving your girlfriend is like a freshly weaned child leaving her mother, you don't want to go abroad to work! Don't you know the way? From here, write a letter to the country. It will take at least more than a month, you can wait a few more days, and when this girl is in a good mood one day, she will go out to help you do this. ”

Listen to Xiao Yue say this. Zuo Jun couldn't say anything more, he nodded his thanks, and then turned around and left his dormitory.

That same evening. Zuo Jun lay on the bed, tossing and turning and unable to sleep. He was used to Xuemei being by his side, and the two of them slept together. But now, he feels empty, I wonder how Xuemei is now?

He missed Xuemei at this time indescribable, so he got up and sat up, he turned on the electric light and took out Xuemei's photo to look at it non-stop, he looked at it, he really couldn't hold back his inner emotions, and planned to write a letter to Xuemei, but he didn't have any paper around him except a ballpoint pen, he remembered to try it with toilet paper, but he really couldn't write, he was very anxious, at this time he saw a colleague's cigarette box, he had an idea, and immediately took it, he saw that there were still a few cigarettes left, So he pulled a few cigarettes out of the cigarette case along with the inner wrapper, carefully opened the cigarette case, leveled it out, and began to write on it

"Xuemei, I have arrived at the African construction site today, please forgive me for not saying goodbye to you in person, on the way out of Dejiang, my tears have also spilled all the way, to be honest, I just left you, I feel regretful, when I leave you every minute and every second, I am thinking about you, thinking of you"

Zuo Jun still wrote the entire cigarette box full of words in the smallest word, he still wanted to say nothing, but it could only be so, he carefully folded the cigarette box full of words and put it under his bed.

He looked at the time, it was already midnight, and the other four colleagues in the room were already snoring like thunder, and he was just about to turn off the lights before going to sleep, when suddenly there was an urgent knock on the door

Who could it be at such a late hour?

Zuo Jun opened the door curiously, only to see Xiao Yue standing outside with a somewhat discolored face.

Zuo Jun saw that she was wearing pajamas and pajamas, slippers under her feet, and a coat on her outside, and she was trembling with her arms hugged

"Xiao Xiao, what's wrong with you? What happened? ”

When Xiao Yue saw that it was him, she gritted her teeth and did not speak.

Zuo Jun saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, knowing that there must be something strange about the road, so he walked out of the board room and continued to ask, "Do you need my help with anything?" ”

"Zuo Gong, I usually have the habit of getting up at night, I just went out to go to the toilet, but I saw that there seemed to be a dark shadow over there, which frightened me, I saw that the light was still on in this room, so I came and knocked on the door."

After listening to Xiao Yue's introduction, Zuo Jun took a closer look in the direction of her finger, and didn't find anyone, maybe a few wooden stakes were made at the construction site today to make Xiao Yue feel that 'all the grass and trees are soldiers', so he comforted: "You don't have to be afraid, there's nothing there, it's your nerve effect, right?" Go back and rest! ”

After Zuo Jun finished speaking, he wanted to go back to the board room, but Xiao Yue grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Xiao Xiao, are you okay?"

"Zuo Gong, can you accompany me to the toilet?"

"This"

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Zuo Jun couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded and said, "Yes." Let's go! ”

The left army walked in front to open the way for Xiao Yue, and Xiao Yue carefully followed behind

The location of the toilet on site is not too far from the dormitory. Only a hundred meters away, waiting for the toilet. Zuo Jun stopped at the entrance of the toilet, and Xiao Yue walked into the toilet with a miniature flashlight

After a while, Xiao Yue came out of it, and Zuo Jun led her back to the door of her data room, and waited for her to go in and plug in the door before leaving for her to return to her dormitory.

The next day, when Xiao Yue saw Zuo Jun again, she thanked him.

"It's nothing, I'll just take a walk outside in the evening. There's really nothing. ”

"Really? Do you go with me every night? ”

"What? Do you have to go to the toilet in the middle of the night? ”

"It's not so late, I wanted to go before I rested after dark, but now it's too early, I don't dare to go, who knows that I can't hold back until midnight."

There is only one girl in Xiao Yue in the whole construction site, which is indeed not easy, which also reminds Zuo Jun and Xuemei of the scene of being at the Guzhou construction site together, and I sometimes accompanied Xuemei to the toilet in the middle of the night. It would be nice if Xiao Xiao was Xuemei.

Xiao Xiao really needs a companion at this construction site, Zuo Jun thought in his heart.

"Alright! Every night before going to bed, I will accompany you to the toilet. Zuo Jun agreed to Xiao Yue's request.

"Great! Thank you so much, when I'm going. Just knock twice on the door in front of your dormitory, and you must come out when you arrive. ”

Zuo Jun smiled and nodded.

The work after the construction site began to be busy, and the left army got up early and worked hard every day. There were many local blacks working on the site, and local government officials also came to visit the site. Xiao Yue is also very busy, in addition to making materials. He also acted as a microphone for the Chinese and local people, and there was no time to go out to the construction site again.

But no matter how busy Zuo Jun was, he didn't stop writing letters to Xuemei, although he didn't have any letterhead, but the invalid engineering materials on the construction site became his letterhead, and he wrote the words on the back of those information documents, Xiao Yue, as a data clerk, could just help him provide these papers.

However, although he always kept writing letters, he never sent them.

When the main body of the project was about to be capped, the leader of the construction site brought a local office personnel to the construction site, and he said loudly to the Chinese construction personnel: "Everyone has been busy here for more than three months, and the relatives at home will be very concerned. ”

As soon as the leader's words fell, the migrant workers immediately ran back to their dormitories and handed out the letters that had been written and handed them over to the staff of the office.

Zuo Jun was also very excited, and after he ran back to his dormitory, he immediately held the letter he had written these days in his arms and handed it to the staff of that office.

The office staff was immediately stunned, and he complained a little: "Why did your comrade hand me a pile of waste paper?" ”

Zuo Jun hurriedly explained: "These are all letters I wrote to my relatives in China, because I didn't prepare envelopes and stationery, I can only write the letters on these waste papers." ”

The clerk frowned and said, "This can't be done!" I just brought the letter back to China, and it was also handed over to the domestic postal department to forward to the person, like this kind of 'letter', how can the postal department help you mail it? ”

Zuo Jun was a little gloomy, the clerk glanced at him, and then comforted: "Don't worry, I'll be back in half a month, you can prepare a regular letter and hand it to me!" ”

Zuo Jun had no choice but to nod, he walked towards the dormitory with a large pile of 'letters' in his hands, and met Xiao Yue head-on.

"Zuo Gong, what are you doing with this pile of waste paper?"

"This is a letter I wrote to my girlfriend in China, but they said they didn't meet the requirements, so they didn't mail it." Zuo Jun said gloomily.

"What? Every time you ask me for scrap paper, you actually write a letter? ”

Xiao Yue almost couldn't believe her ears, she immediately snatched some waste paper from Zuo Jun's hand, and wanted to see what was going on, Zuo Jun was embarrassed to let her see it, he wanted to go and ask for it back, but Xiao Yue just didn't give it, she naughtily talked to Zuo Jun

Zuo Jun still held more than half of the letter written on waste paper in his hand, which was a little inconvenient to pursue, Xiao Yue took the opportunity to see the content of the letter, but when she just glanced at it, she was immediately attracted by the content of the letter (to be continued......
