Chapter 1: The Journey (1)

Xiao Lu stood at the door of the plane, with a sweet smile on her face, greeting every passenger who boarded the plane. The dark blue stewardess uniform is slim and fitting, refreshing and concise, and there is a pretty blue and red colored silk scarf around her neck, which is both lively and chic, and has a sense of hierarchy, and the overall effect looks kind, clean, capable, elegant, and has an international sense of fashion. Coupled with black stockings, beautiful legs and black pendant high heels, she is sexy and charming, and her demeanor is thousands.

Xiao Lu is a flight attendant at Southwest Airlines, well, to be precise, it should be a trainee flight attendant, who has just gone through three months of pre-job training, and according to the company's regulations, she must be trained for three months before she can become a formal flight attendant, sign a contract, and enjoy the treatment of a formal flight attendant.

Flight attendant is a very fashionable and special profession, although it also comes with high risks, but high wages and glamorous image have always been the dream of girls. The average monthly salary of flight attendants is more than 10,000 yuan, and the highest monthly salary has reached more than 20,000 yuan, which is a high-income person in society. The elegant, dignified, and generous external requirements equate the flight attendant with the beautiful and beautiful, and it seems that as long as you become a flight attendant, you not only have a high income, but also become a socially recognized beauty, so everyone is flocking to it. The profession of flight attendant has also become an enviable profession.

Xiao Lu felt that she was very lucky, her grades were not good, and her failure in the college entrance examination made her almost lose confidence in life. Fortunately, with the encouragement and help of my family, I signed up for the open recruitment of Southwest Airlines flight attendants, and was able to stand out from many applicants, and after layers of screening, I finally became a trainee flight attendant of my dreams. Therefore, she cherishes her current job very much, and even the smile on her face is from the heart, not the kind of professional smile.

In 1990, airplanes were still out of reach for ordinary people. The cost of that ticket is far from what an ordinary family can afford. Therefore, people who can afford to fly are really rich or expensive, either high-ranking government officials, or rich people or public officials of large companies, anyway, they have their own money to enjoy.

"Welcome, please ......" Xiao Lu habitually bent down slightly and bowed, and said the welcome speech. Every passenger who comes must be greeted politely. But before he finished speaking, he was surprised to find that he was standing in front of him a teenager, not low, only a head shorter than himself, you know, Xiao Lu's height is 172cm, so it means that this child is at least 150cm. Wearing a white sweater on the upper body, a coffee-colored high-waisted jacket on the outside, and a pair of old-colored jeans on the bottom, it looks sunny and fashionable.

Seeing Xiao Lu looking at him curiously, the boy smiled slightly, and his immature and delicate face suddenly flashed with a dazzling light like the sun, which made people feel very kind.

Xiao Lu took the boarding pass handed over by the boy, looked at it, and said, "E14, please go straight to the right side of the fourth row." Hey, are you alone? What about your parents? She suddenly noticed that this boarding pass was the last boarding pass for this flight, and the child was not accompanied by an adult, so didn't he get on the plane first?

Shudu and Changfu are a regional route in the province, which originally only flew once a week, but with the vigorous development of tourism in Changfu in recent years, flights have gradually increased to three times a week. However, there are still not many people who take the plane, and the aircraft used is also a small MD-95 aircraft with a maximum capacity of only 100 people. But even so, the attendance rate is less than 50% at a time, and today, there are less than 30 people in 74 seats. However, it is precisely because there are few people on the plane that it is possible to let a trainee flight attendant like Xiao Lu serve this route.

"Well, what's wrong?" The boy asked curiously.

"So, where your parents sit, I can help you adjust your seats so that you can sit together." Xiao Lu explained with a smile. Although these things are not mandatory for flight attendants, Xiao Lu feels very kind to this very sunny little boy, and the service is naturally more meticulous and thoughtful.

"Thank you, sister, but don't bother. I'm alone, I can sit anywhere. The little boy politely took his boarding pass, picked up his suitcase and headed into the cabin.

"Ahh Xiao Lu was taken aback, in fact, let alone her, she was replaced by any senior flight attendant, and she had never seen a teenage child flying alone, not to mention how this child could book a ticket and pass the security check, can the child's parents really rest assured?

You know, this is not ten years later, the airline has launched a service for children to fly alone, and the company's flight attendants will pick up the child from the child's home to the child to the designated parent, the whole service. At this time, airlines do not have such a service, so let children fly alone, but it requires a lot of energy and courage from parents.

I think this little boy may be the youngest passenger in the history of China's civil aviation to fly alone. Xiao Lu really didn't expect that she would fly this flight of less than an hour, and she would be lucky enough to be a member of witnessing this historical moment, and she was very shocked, until Faye Wong, another flight attendant on the flight, came over and called her a few times to close the cabin door, she reacted and hurriedly worked, but her heart was still figuring out, who is this child, who can get on the plane, the family is definitely not an ordinary person, although the clothes do not look very high-end, but they are decent and unassuming, and their words and deeds also seem to be very cultivated. This is not easy for an adult, let alone a teenager.

For her, this child is full of too many puzzles.

The magistrates must have seen it a long time ago, this child is none other than our protagonist Leng Binghan.

Sitting in the plane seat, cold and slightly closed eyes, the experiences of these days seem to be right in front of you.

After spending the fifteenth day of the first lunar month at home, it is time to set off coldly. The things he needed had already been packed, although Wang Peiyuan had prepared everything at home, Li Yuanfen still picked up a large suitcase for Leng Binghan, what underwear and outer clothes, socks and shoes, etc., for fear that he would lack something outside. Looking at the suitcases that were almost taller than himself, although Leng Binghan was very helpless, he didn't dare to touch his mother's heart.

Changfu is more than 500 kilometers away from Shudu, and it takes more than ten hours to get there by train. However, after the Spring Festival, it is the peak period of the Spring Festival of the train, and the tickets are not easy to buy, not to mention, and they are crowded to death. In my previous life, I studied in Tianjin University, and I had to toss back and forth four times a year, and each time I had to take the train for nearly fifty or sixty hours, I couldn't eat well, I couldn't sleep well, and I even had to go to the toilet to bump in the flow of people.

Leng Yunfei and Li Yuanfen also felt sorry for their son, so they finally chose to take a plane, which could reach Shudu in less than an hour, saving time and making the journey relatively comfortable, and the family was not rich, but they were not short of money.

Li Yuanfen, who rarely went out, made up her mind to accompany her son to Shudu, but at the end of the day, she fell ill, not serious, but it was a common fever and cold, but the whole person seemed a little weak and her spirit was not very good. In view of this situation, Leng Binghan resolutely sent to his mother on the plane. So, under Leng Binghan's insistent request, there was a scene that shocked Xiao Lu.

In fact, strictly speaking, Leng Binghan cannot fly alone. The real-name system implemented for air tickets also requires verification of ID cards, and Leng Binghan is a minor at all and does not have an ID card. However, in any system, there will always be privileged people who will not be constrained. As the mayor of Leng Yunyi, to help his son go through the formalities, it is not a green light for everything. Although airports and airlines are not under local jurisdiction, after all, on other people's territory, how dare not sell the face of Leng Yunping, a strong mayor?

It's not that Leng Yunfei and Li Yuanfen are relieved to let him go out alone, but here Leng Yunfei personally sent him on the plane, and Wang Peiyuan was notified to arrange someone to pick him up, and the time was only more than an hour, so there would be no accidents.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this flight, please sit in your seat, fasten your seat belt, our plane is about to take off......" After Xiao Lu finished broadcasting, he was a little worried that the boy had never been on a plane and would not be able to wear a seat belt, so he hurriedly walked to his side, looked down and saw that his seat belt had already been fastened, and he was leaning on the seat to recuperate.

It seems that this child is not the first time to take a plane, seeing this situation, Xiao Lu came to such a conclusion in his heart. She was right or wrong, in her previous life, she had taken a lot of planes coldly, but in this life, it was really the first time.

It didn't take long for the plane to take off, and the roar was loud.

I don't know if it's because the pilot's skills are not strong enough or because of the small plane, the bump when taking off and ascending is terrible, Leng Binghan feels a little dizzy, nauseous, and begins to have a sense of earplugs, the sound becomes very distant, and at the same time, the ears will buzz, the resonance is very strong, and sometimes even pain. This is the first time to make an airplane in this life, but I have done a lot in my previous life, there are Airbus A340, there are Boeing 747, but I have never had such a strong reaction.

He frowned, took a deep breath, and conditioned his breathing, trying to alleviate the discomfort in this way. However, this method, which still had some effect in his previous life, did not play a role at this time.

"This damn little plane, never to fly this kind of little plane again." Leng Binghan muttered hatefully. However, I didn't think that it would be almost ten years later that the flights in Changfu and Shudu were replaced by Boeing 737 and better planes.
