The second more

Endure the sourness in your heart. Zhang Cuilian opened the orange and handed her the orange petal: "It's not easy. We'll go back when we get back. Dong Lihua shook her head. While chewing oranges, he regretted: "You think it's the county seat." Just go. Your dad hasn't been at home for days. If we go to Harbin for a while, we won't be angry. ”

Zhang Cuilian could see that Dong Lihua was still a little moved in her heart. couldn't help but tease her: "Buy me a dowry." How could my dad be angry. You don't know. The last time I went to Harbin, I saw a lot of good things. But I'm embarrassed to buy it. You also know that Gu Zhicheng is like that. I have money in my pocket. He came back dry. ”

Dong Lihua knew what Zhang Cuilian had done with An Rongniang in those days. I heard that the things over there are cheap and of good quality. Thinking that Zhang Cuilian is going to marry far away this time. One is also taken. Both are also backs. It's better to buy some good ones in one go, so that the girl can happily get married.

Thinking about it, he nodded: "Okay." Just buy some New Year's goods. You also consult with the town. Let's see what the shortcomings of the family are. Then there are some customs on the Gu family's side. What is fashionable for women to marry. ”

Zhang Cuilian was puzzled: "We are all from the same place. What could be different. ”

Dong Lihua smiled: "That's not necessarily. Some families want girls to marry six quilts, and some families want to marry eight quilts. It's not good to get a joke. And then your mother-in-law is a particular person. The things we buy at home really have to be more upscale. ”

After speaking, he sighed again: "Moving here is not as good as business over there." Otherwise, you will definitely be given more dowry. ”

Ding Mei's eyes widened in disbelief. Just the appearance of this little girl in front of me. How much more does her mother want to give her.

Zhang Cuilian's face was happy: "No need." You don't want to think about it either. If you're living here. How can there be so many things to take? ”

Dong Lihua nodded and sighed: "That's what I'm talking about." I'd like to send you some good furniture. I don't know how to mail it. ”

Zhang Cuilian thought of a certain treasure in the future. You can buy anything. Even if it's furniture and electrical appliances, which are afraid of bumps. I can deliver it to my home safely, too. It's so much happier than it is now.

"Oops. There's so much you can think about. Just make me a quilt when the time comes. Don't want anything else. Zhang Cuilian closed the book. Sit up straight and rummage through the pile of food.

Ding Mei sat aside in a daze. Thinking that he didn't have any dowry, he felt uncomfortable again.

It gets dark early in the Northeast. The further north you go, the more so. It was dark at half-past four. The chef in the dining car walked out in a white coat and pushed a small cart.

Zhang Cuilian was pleasantly surprised to find that there were also bento sellers. Beckoned Dong Lihua and her mother to buy something to eat. Dong Lihua looked at others. Some bring their own dry food, such as Ding Mei.

The memory of her previous life, Zhang Cuilian has forgotten. I didn't know that it was not called a box lunch at this time, but it was called a rice bowl. In fact, it is an aluminum lunch box with hot rice in it. It is topped with oily and fragrant vegetables.

Lunch boxes on the train do not require food stamps. Three dollars a box is not expensive, but it is not very cheap. Passengers who do hardboard don't buy much. There are more people buying in the sleeping car.

"Don't buy it. Death is expensive. Zhang Cuilian took out the money and asked for two boxes. Dong Lihua didn't stop it.

"How many times can you do a train in your life? Enough is enough to suffer. I won't let you eat a hot meal yet. "At this time, there was no braised beef noodles. How uncomfortable it is not to eat a boxed lunch.

"Girl. Why don't you eat it? Dong Lihua took the chopsticks. I was a little curious when I saw that Ding Mei didn't buy a boxed lunch.

Ding Mei smiled very sweetly: "Auntie." I didn't like to eat rice when I was younger. Ate the tail of the thorn. It's not good. ”

Dong Lihua nodded: "Oh." I don't know if there are any noodles sold. You'll buy a bowl later. Or it's too cold. Eating cold dumplings is also not good for the stomach. ”

Zhang Cuilian, who was eating with her head bowed on the other side, couldn't help laughing. Thinking about her mom is so cute sometimes. I thought that the conditions for living in sleepers were good. I don't feel sorry for these few dollars of food.

I also have a lot of money now. Thinking about when Dong Lihua first entered the city. I don't want to buy a bowl of noodles. The flatbread was eaten with pickles for months.

Ding Mei was a little restless in a group of people eating. After thinking about it, he took off his shoes and went to his own shop.

"Oops. Don't say it's a really good dish. It's the same as in the restaurant. "Dong Lihua eats very quickly. After eating, she picked up her large tea jar and took a sip of water. Zhang Cuilian chewed slowly and got used to it. While eating, he said disgustedly: "Are you talking about the restaurant at the intersection or the small restaurant opposite our house." ”

Dong Lihua sneered: "The one at the intersection." It can also be the little daughter-in-law's house opposite. They can eat noodles at home. The dish is not good. ”

Zhang Cuilian nodded and agreed: "That's right." The water that the kohlrabi fried is chirping. Potatoes are all faceted in how to make them. ”

Dong Lihua felt a little cold. Take off your shoes and put your legs on the bed and cover them with a quilt. After thinking about it, he said: "The restaurant at the intersection is delicious fried with shredded potatoes." It's sour, crispy, and spicy. His family's elbows are also delicious. It's better than the hotel where I was treated last time. That hotel is just a high-end environment. The dishes are not as delicious as expected. The master's salary. If I were the hostess, I'd have to him. ”

Zhang Cuilian swallowed the last bite of food. smiled and explained to Dong Lihua: "Mom." Authentic Beijing cuisine made in other restaurants. The master was also invited from Beijing. You ordered a bunch of Northeast dishes. Where can you eat it? ”

Dong Lihua realized it later. Look up and giggle.

It was quiet on the train. Even if the mother and daughter speak quietly, they can be heard by those who have a heart. A certain man, who had been curious during the day, asked, "Listen to you two speak." I think your family is quite rich. What are you doing? ”

The two looked at each other. Be vigilant. Dong Lihua was silent. Zhang Cuilian said with a smile: "It's not very rich." I'm just a student. My dad just repaired tires. ”

The man didn't believe it: "Then you can still know that this restaurant is delicious." That restaurant was not tasty. ”

Zhang Cuilian said with a smile: "What age is it now?" Everywhere there is bargaining grain. My dad and my mom were too busy to eat. You can buy a bowl of noodles for a dime. Why do you have to do it yourself? It's only two cents for a plate of stir-fried vegetables every three or five days. ”

Dong Lihua smiled and nodded: "Hmm." Our house opened a while ago, and we invited relatives to come over for dinner. It's a restaurant in front of my home. Decent and hassle-free. You say you can save some money by buying your own groceries and cooking. But you'll have to work on it. It's better to have a treat outside to save face. ”

The man's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Oops." I didn't see it. Your family is a big deal. The people who do business are big money. ”

Dong Lihua shook her head with a smile: "What a big deal." Isn't it all for the sake of the girl? That's all we have in our house. She came to school in the city, and the two of us were not at ease. Anyway, his dad was doing odd jobs. I don't work either. We don't have any land. There is not even a single vegetable garden. I rented a store in the city and repaired the tires for the two of them. Just earn some pension money and save a little to give your daughter as a dowry. ”

Zhang Cuilian said in a slightly cool tone on the side: "What age is it now?" The people who do business are rotten on the streets. The vegetable seller is called Boss Cai. It was Manager Fan who opened the restaurant. The tofu seller is the chairman of the soy products food factory. The lame man who repairs the bicycle at the door. Now I can call it a general or something. What people say. A brick fell from the sky. Smashed three people. Two are bosses and one is ready to be a boss. ”

The people around him sneered. I think what Zhang Cuilian said is particularly interesting. The man's compliments on Zhang Cuilian again and again. Thumbs up: "After all, it's a college student." It's cultured. ”

Zhang Cuilian sat up with a smile: "Actually, I think it's good to open a restaurant." You say that there are fewer people using food stamps now. If you don't go to state-run restaurants and oil and grain stores, you don't have to do that. ”

After speaking, he turned his head and said to Dong Lihua: "I went to the provincial capital last time. Buy whatever you want on the street. Who's going to pay for food stamps? ”

Dong Lihua thought about the dozen food stamps in the package, and felt funny. I chatted with my peers next to me. talked about the interesting story of their brave food stamp shopping back then. It tells the story of having money and no food stamps. The dilemma of wanting to buy something that you can't buy.

I can finally read a good book. Zhang Cuilian found a comfortable position to lie down. Looking at the light with a comfortable face. A happy face.

Ding Mei, who came back from the toilet and was about to go to bed, saw it. I always feel glaring. Obviously, she is younger than her. Obviously, she is more mature than her in receiving people and things. Just because I read less and see less. was ridiculed and despised by the demonic woman in front of him.

Zhang Cuilian didn't know that Ding Mei's inferiority swelled up when she met her. Spent the time on the train quietly. Looking forward to the appearance of Gu Zhicheng pick-up station.

Finally arrived at Suiyuan Station. Dong Lihua and her mother struggled to carry a few packages off the train.

Although both of them wore quite thick. But I didn't expect the temperature here to be even cooler than expected.

It is said that beautiful women are usually lucky. This is true. Just in the relatively modest nineties. Zhang Cuilian also met a lot of strong guys who were willing to help her.

For example, this enthusiastic guy in front of him. I saw Zhang Cuilian and her mother struggling to carry things. Offer to help. Carrying Zhang Cuilian's heaviest canvas bag and carrying her luggage, she walked out of the train station with a smile and a smile.

Ding Mei watched coldly from the side. sneered in his heart: If it weren't for her good-looking and modern and demonic appearance. Who can help her. Just this virtuous person can stay here. The man is not at home. It's going to hook up everywhere, and people have to run away sooner or later.

Outside the train station. A crisp military uniform. Suppress the excitement in your heart. The corners of his mouth smiled lightly, and Gu Zhicheng, who listened to his comrades-in-arms, saw his girl at a glance.

He wears a dark green knee-length tweed coat. A long black skirt is revealed underneath. Around the neck is a wide white polka dot black scarf. He wears a round black hat with a large brim on his head. He was looking around with a smile on his face. The moment she saw herself. The big eyes burst out with surprise. I don't even know how to take a step. Suddenly stopped in place. Smirked at himself.

I was so happy to see the silly girl. Gu Zhicheng felt indescribably happy in his heart. Leave behind the chattering comrades. The legs don't shoot out automatically.

And Zhang Cuilian on the opposite side also seemed to have been suddenly turned on the switch. Drop your luggage with both hands. Spread his legs and rushed towards Gu Zhicheng.
