Chapter 17 Traveling to Jiangning
Liao Wanyu's desk is close to the window, and she flips through the dictionary with her head down, the sunlight casting her silhouette on the amaranth red desk.
The erect bridge of the nose in the shadow and the long eyelashes are all clear.
Zhen Gu stood quietly at the door and watched, her serious work was also fresh.
If it weren't for someone going upstairs in the corridor, and the "creaking" sound of shoes stepping on the wooden floor, causing Liao Wanyu to look back, he would have continued to look.
"Cousin?" didn't expect Zhen Gu to come to the shipyard to look for her, Liao Wanyu stood up and smiled politely.
"I've already informed you, right?" Zhen Gu's short hair is neatly groomed, he wears a gray pea green three-piece suit, and a pure gold pocket watch is hung on the vest, which is a very formal outfit with shiny leather shoes.
"Notify what?"
Liao Wanyu's eyes were full of doubts, she didn't remember that she had received any notices, not even the newly assigned translation task.
Zhen Gu's brows moved slightly, and he turned his head sideways to look at Pan Dekai behind him. At this moment, a slightly chubby middle-aged man ran upstairs out of breath.
The fat man didn't know Zhen Gu, but he had seen Pan Dekai a few times, and this time he saw Pan Dekai standing behind Zhen Gu, thinking that he should be a bigger person.
He bowed respectfully and eagerly to Zhen Gu and Pan Dekai, then turned around and instructed Liao Wanyu, "Today's train is going to Jiangning to participate in the industry persuasion meeting, why are you still here?" ”
“……”
She wasn't notified in advance that she was going on a business trip...... She also has a little brother at home, where can she say she can go? And after Xie Yuru fell in school a few days ago, she relied on her to live or die, and asked her to read the newspaper to him every day after work, saying that it was to repay him for helping Liao Xi keep his school status.
Both boxes are things, and neither can be left alone.
"But...... No one told me to go away? ”
The fat man was a little impatient, "Won't I inform you now?" The car was late in the evening, and there were still hours to go. ”
"Can't you go somebody else?" Liao Wanyu also knew that there was little hope, but she still wanted to fight for it.
The fat man sighed, "How can anyone know foreign languages!" ”
After saying this, he turned around and left, leaving Liao Wanyu looking at the door in embarrassment.
"What should I do?"
The person who asked the question was Zhen Gu, he didn't plan to make up his mind for Liao Wanyu at this time, he was completely out of the way, he waited for Liao Wanyu to ask him for help.
Thinking quickly about countermeasures in her mind, she was the first to veto the idea of asking Chen Bingyi to help take care of her little brother. Chen Bingyi is not often in school, and even if she calls, she may not be able to find anyone.
Although there was a moment in her mind that she thought of Xie Yuru, Liao Wanyu also denied it very quickly.
After thinking about it, I could only ask Zhen Gu to arrange someone to take care of my younger brother, everyone originally lived in the same building, and the relationship was closer, and the younger brother was not too uneasy because she was not at home.
"Cousin, do you have someone there who can temporarily help take care of Xiao Jiao? I don't have any friends, I can't think of anyone else. ”
Zhen Gu curled his lips and smiled slightly, "Then I will arrange for Ah Xi to take care of Ah Xi for a few days, Xiao Jiao has seen Ah Xi." ”
When he spoke, his tone was deep, which reminded Liao Wanyu of the bass violin, and the plainness added a little trust and peace of mind.
When she returned home to pack her luggage, Liao Wanyu pretended to be a thick dress according to Zhen Gu's instructions, she sat cross-legged on the bed and folded her clothes, and her hand suddenly stopped.
Why did Zhen Gu know that she was going to Jiangning?
With this doubt, Liao Wanyu quickly packed her luggage, and then left a note for her younger brother on the table, which was pressed under the teacup on the table with a few yuan.
The coachman had been waiting downstairs, it was the person from Zhen Gu Changbao, who was hiding in the shadows and smoking, when he saw Liao Wanyu carrying a small rattan box down, he hurriedly snuffed out the cigarette with his hands, and put the rest behind his ears.
"Miss Liao, Mr. has already gone to the station first."
Liao Wanyu nodded, handed the box to the coachman, and got into the car and sat down.
It is not very far from here to the train station, Liao Wanyu sat in the car and did nothing, and the excitement of going to a strange city welled up in her heart.
She had heard of Jiang Ning for a long time, and she had also seen Jiang Ning's photos in newspapers and pictorials, and as for the Persuasion Association, she seemed to have seen these three words in the newspaper several months ago, but she didn't care about it at the time, and she didn't know what it was. But she guessed that since she was asked to participate, it should have something to do with shipbuilding, right?
Because the weather in the north will get colder and colder, the carriage of the first-class train has been changed from the rear of the train to the nearest front of the train, and there is no other way, just because the hot water is left from the boiler, and naturally it is getting hotter and hotter the closer it gets.
When I waited for the third-class bus at the end, there was no heating at all.
Liao Wanyu had never been a train, she followed behind Pan Dekai, her big eyes couldn't help but be curious, and she looked at it.
The ticket checker stood at the door of the first-class carriage, saw Pan Dekai and Liao Wanyu very respectfully, and said hello in a gentle tone, I heard that it was Mr. Zhen's companion, and the ticket was not checked, so he politely invited him to the car.
The floor of the carriage was covered with carpets, and there was no sound when she walked, Liao Wanyu followed behind Pan Dekai, trying her best to make herself look more decent, not to look like she had never seen the market, but her eyes still couldn't help but look at it.
"Please."
Pan Dekai stood in front of a sliding door that could be passed through by one person, reached out and pulled the door open, making a gesture of please.
Liao Wanyu entered the box and looked around, although this place is not spacious, but there are two narrow beds, and a sofa covered with goose down, and the powder room and bathroom are also complete.
She hadn't ever done a train, so she thought it was all like this.
Pan Dekai put Liao Wanyu's luggage on the table of Lishimian, and only said that she should rest first, and the person left.
Sitting on the goose-down sofa, Liao Wanyu's body was softly supported, and the dense and comfortable feeling reminded her that when she was still in Liao's house, there seemed to be a similar dark green sofa by the window of the room where she lived.
At that time, she liked to lie down in the afternoon sun and read a book, and the book could not read a few pages, and people had already fallen asleep in the warm sun.
When Zhen Gu opened the door of the box, he saw Liao Wanyu tilting her head, pillowed on the armrest of the sofa, breathing evenly and long, obviously asleep.
She slept so deeply in a strange environment that the sound of Zhen Gu opening the door didn't wake her up, if it weren't for the sudden movement of the train when it was driving, she was afraid that she would have slept directly into the night.
Zhen Gu sat in a narrow bunk reading a book, and when he heard the movement, he raised his head, and met Liao Wanyu's confused eyes.
The corners of his mouth moved slightly, and there was a slight smile in his eyes, "We're already driving." ”
Liao Wanyu heard this and hurriedly looked out the window, and the scenery outside the window kept regressing, and she realized that she had really embarked on a journey to Jiangning.
"Cousin, how did you know I was going to Jiangning?"
Zhen Gu snapped, closed the book in his hand, he stood up and walked to the window, "A few days ago, I listened to what your boss said. ”
Liao Wanyu hadn't seen her boss yet, she turned her head suddenly, and found that she seemed to be being held between him and the window by Zhen Gu at the moment, she felt that Zhen Gu was so tall for the first time, so high that she raised her head, but it was only the position of his chin.
She moved herself to the window, "Have you seen our boss?" ”
All the information about Liao Wanyu's boss comes from the legend in the factory, but there are too many versions, and she still doesn't know whether her boss is male or female, tall, short, fat and thin, and old.
"Yes." Zhen Gu left from the window and sat back where he had just read.
Liao Wanyu was curious, and sat down beside him, "How old are you?" Male or female? Why is it so mysterious, what I hear from everyone's mouth, it seems to be different. ”
It's like a little girl. This was Zhen Gu's only thought at this time. When she was in Liao's house, she was too upright, and she was upheld in a proper manner, which lacked a little bit of the youthful atmosphere of a girl, and added a little bit of old-fashionedness.
But that old Cheng was pretended to be, and now that the Liao family has been established, without the depression of Bai Xiuzhen and several sisters, it will naturally disappear slowly.
Zhen Gu made a serious reminiscence, and said for a while: "He is not very old, a man, if you have the opportunity, you will meet him." ”
"No photos or anything like that?"
Zhen Gu smiled, "I carry a photo of a man with me every day?" ”
Liao Wanyu also reacted that what she said was too unreasonable, and laughed, "I said the wrong thing." ”
There was a sudden knock on the door, and with Zhen Gu's "come in", a uniformed tearoom opened the box door, "Sir, madam, hot water is delivered." ”
In the tea room, I didn't know that Zhen Gu and Liao Wanyu were in a divine relationship, and when I saw that they were in the same box, I thought they were husband and wife. After delivering the tea, the tea room respectfully accepted the small account given by Zhen Gu, and when he went out, he found that there were as many as five yuan!
It's half a month's salary!
Liao Wanyu has been coiling her hair most of the time since she combed herself, and it is not surprising that she was mistaken by the tea room, she saw that Zhen Gu did not explain much with the tea room, but just gave a small account and let the man go, and she didn't say anything.
It's just a tea room where you won't see each other when you get out of the car, and you really can't talk much.
The door was knocked again, and Liao Wanyu thought it was the staff on the train again, but when she saw that Zhen Gu was reading the book and didn't make a sound, she answered.
Open the door, it was Pan Dekai.
"Sir, Director Lu has already arranged it. Dinner is ready, should I use it here or go to the reception room? ”
Listening to Pan Dekai's report, Zhen Gu didn't raise his eyelids, and swept the book in his hand with his gaze evenly, "Let's go to the reception room, take her around by the way." ”
Liao Wanyu took the train for the first time, and she didn't even understand the matter of selling tickets, she thought that each carriage was as quiet and comfortable as their box, and when she used her good meal and followed Zhen Gu like this, she realized that the difference was so big.
When it came to the second-class carriage, Pan Dekai walked ahead, with one in his right hand in his suit, because there were many uncertainties in the environment, so he held a gun in one hand.
Liao Wanyu was able to walk side by side with Zhen Gu at first, but when she arrived at the second-class carriage, she was pulled forward by Zhen Gu and asked her to walk between herself and Pan Dekai.
When she walked two more carriages like this, and then opened a wooden door, Liao Wanyu couldn't help but change her face.
