A group of twelve people entered the second waiting room, sat on the wooden bench and chatted casually for a while, and when they saw the train enter the platform, everyone walked out of the waiting room without hurry, and Xie Shuyao followed Xie Mu out of the waiting room unhurriedly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Info heard some noisy voices on the right side, Xie Shuyao followed the sound and looked, it turned out that the fence door of the platform had not been opened yet, and the fence was crowded with people waiting to get on the train, Xie Shuyao knew that those were all passengers of the third and fourth class trains, because the passengers of the third and fourth class carriages did not have a waiting room, so they could only wait for the train in an open space outside the fence.

"Someone's staring at us." Ruolin pulled the corner of Xie Shuyao's clothes, and whispered in a direction with her hand.

Xie Shuyao turned his head and looked in the direction Bai Ruolin said, at the exit on the other side of the waiting room, a man wearing a gray-black top hat and a gray cloth robe looked at him, and the man in gray saw Xie Shuyao turning his head to look at him, and immediately lowered the brim of his hat to cover his face, and turned around and walked towards the last carriage.

Because the man pressed the brim of his hat very low, Xie Shuyao didn't see his appearance, and when he saw the man in gray leaving, he comforted Bai Ruolin and said, "It's okay, I guess he's looking for someone!" ”

"I don't think he's a good guy." Bai Ruolin said with great certainty.

Xie Shuyao shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't know, maybe he was fascinated by you." ”

"Maybe he likes you." Bai Ruolin said with a smile.

Laughing, Xie Shuyao and Bai Ruolin came to the second-class carriage near the rear of the car, why is the second-class carriage located at the rear of the car? The reason is that the trains of this era are coal-burning steam trains, and a large amount of soot will be produced in the process of burning coal, and the carriages near the front of the locomotive are most affected by soot, and the carriage environment is particularly poor; Therefore, the first and second class carriages are located at the rear of the car, and the third and fourth class carriages near the front of the car are all third- and fourth-class carriages. Everyone got on the train one after another, the train at this time is not like the future generations need to be seated, everyone can feel free to find their favorite seat to sit down, Xie Shuyao feels that the second-class carriage is very similar to the second-class carriage of the high-speed rail in later generations, the middle is a narrow aisle, both sides of the aisle are one-way double-row seats, no one will sit face-to-face with you, the seat is more comfortable.

Xie Shuyao glanced at the second-class carriage, and there were not many people in the second-class carriage, and there were as many as half of the vacant seats. Xie Shuyao heard a classmate say that the scene on the side of the third-class carriage is very similar to the scene during the Spring Festival in later generations, because there is no rule on the number of seats, so whoever grabs the seat is considered to be whoever, and many people do not have seats. And the first-class car Xie Shuyao heard that there are only a few wide soft sofas in a carriage there, which is very spacious and comfortable.

Xie Shuyao pulled Ruolin to pick a seat behind Xie's mother and second aunt, and after waiting for a while, the train began to move forward slowly, and the train in front of her made a whining sound from time to time, Xie Shuyao heard Xie's father, who had been to the Great Wall, say that it would take more than an hour to get there, and after yawning a few times, Xie Shuyao closed his eyes and leaned on the chair to take a nap.

Xie Shuyao, who slept very lightly, felt some itching on the back of his neck, stretched out his hand and touched a small insect on his neck, and opened his eyes to see that he was pinching a small insect the size of a grain of rice in his hand, this insect Xie Shuyao knew was named Bed Bug, and it was a ubiquitous demon when the summer night came, Xie Shuyao didn't even think about strangling this little devil who dared to come out during the day with his fingernails. After strangling the bug, Xie Shuyao told Bai Ruolin that the bed bugs here also came out to bite people during the day, and when Ruolin heard that there were bed bugs here, she was so frightened that she pulled Xie Shuyao to change seats and go elsewhere.

After picking a new seat and sitting down, Xie Shuyao couldn't help but sigh that socialism in later generations is good, at least he has never encountered these harmful insects in his later life. Every year when the bedbugs come out in the summer, Xie Mu will boil the bedding clothes in the water and use the poisonous smoke to kill insects in each room, but even so, Xie Shuyao has to be bitten by bedbugs several times every summer. Every time you see a bed bug reappear, it's another carpet insecticide to the room...... Xie Shuyao is very helpless about flea and bed bugs in this era, especially the bed bugs will crawl out of all parts of your room when you sleep at night. They bite you while you're asleep, leaving you with a very itchy rash.

came to the Republic of China and experienced the summer of the Republic of China, Xie Shuyao understood the meaning of Xu Zhimo's farewell to Kangqiao's sentence "Summer insects are also silent for you", this "summer insects" is not a good word, it is estimated that Xu Zhimo also comprehended this verse with the help of countless "summer insects". In Xie Shuyao's view, summer is the season of mosquitoes, and it is difficult to spend it in biting and slapping mosquitoes to death one after another.

After sighing a little, because I drank a large glass of water in the morning, I couldn't help but go to the toilet on the train. Coming out of the toilet, Xie Shuyao was about to turn around and return to his seat, when suddenly a familiar voice sounded behind Xie Shuyao: "Sister Shuyao, is it you?" ”

Xie Shuyao looked back and saw Jin Bihui, who was wearing a black Japanese kimono, opening the door of the first-class carriage and looking at him with a look of surprise. Seeing Jin Bihui in Japanese costumes appear, Xie Shuyao was surprised: "Hey, why are you here?" ”

"Look at what you said, you can be here, why can't I be here, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon, what a coincidence." Jin Bihui came over and took Xie Shuyao's hand and said affectionately, "By the way, where are you going?" ”

Xie Shuyao also felt that it was too coincidental, he had only seen it in the hospital two days ago, but he didn't expect to meet here today, Xie Shuyao was pulled into the soft sofa of the first-class carriage by Jin Bihui and sat down, seeing Jin Bihui's face more handsome than a man after dressing up in men's clothes, Xie Shuyao said a little unnaturally: "It's really too coincidental, my mother took me to the Great Wall to see, where are you going?" Why are you dressed like this? ”

"It's such a coincidence, I'm also going to the Great Wall, and it just so happens that we're going together. This dress was brought to me by my Japanese classmates from Japan, and they insisted that I wear this dress to accompany them to the Great Wall. Jin Bihui quietly pointed to the few people wearing Japanese kimonos in the first-class carriage, and asked with some concern as he pointed to the kimonos on his body.

"No, I think you look particularly good in this dress, better than a man." Xie Shuyao said politely with a smile.

"Really? You didn't lie to me, did you? Jin Bihui was skeptical.

"I really didn't lie to you, it's really good-looking, people look good, they look good in whatever they wear." Xie Shuyao said with a smile.

……

The two chatted for a while, Xie Shuyao was afraid that Xie Mu and others would worry, so she returned to the second-class carriage, and the two agreed to go to the Great Wall together after getting off the train. After several contacts with Jin Bihui, Xie Shuyao knew that Jin Bihui had a serious transvestite, and she wanted to live like a man, but after taking off this men's clothes, she was still a woman after all!

After the train stopped at Nankou Railway Station for a while, it drove for about half an hour to Qinglongqiao Station, Qinglongqiao Station was under a section of the Great Wall, and seeing the Great Wall on the mountain in front of him, Xie Shuyao couldn't hide the excitement in his heart. After getting off the train, Xie Shuyao saw a particularly eye-catching bronze statue at the station, which was a bronze statue of Zhan Tianyou who was meditating with his right hand in his trouser pocket.

Xie Shuyao excitedly pointed to the bronze statue of Zhan Tianyou and said to Bai Ruolin: "This is the bronze statue of Zhan Tianyou, the father of China's railways." ”

After getting off the train, Hu Shi also came to the bronze statue of Zhan Tianyou and said with emotion: "This bronze statue of Zhan Gong is the Statue of Liberty in China, and he inspires us to continue to fight for this country!" ”

Xie Shuyao was surprised when she heard Hu Shi's emotion, it turned out that Zhan Tianyou was also Hu Shi's idol!

"What idol? Old Hu, who is this bronze man standing upright? Hu Shi's wife Jiang Dongxiu asked with a puzzled face after hearing Hu Shi's words.

Hu Shi immediately patiently explained to his wife, Bai Ruolin saw Hu Shi's obedient appearance to his wife, and whispered in Xie Shuyao's ear: "Is Hu Shi really afraid of his wife as rumored?" ”

Xie Shuyao shook his head with a smile, leaned into Bai Ruolin's ear and said, "People love their wives, not afraid of their wives." At the beginning, Xie Shuyao also thought that Jiang Dongxiu had grasped Hu Shi's weakness of treating her reputation as life, so that Hu Shi was obedient to her, but later Xie's mother told Xie Shuyao that Hu Shi didn't mind others saying that he was afraid of his wife, and even he himself proposed "three obedience and four virtues": three subordinates: the wife must follow when she goes out, the wife must obey the orders, and the wife must blindly obey when she says the wrong thing; Four virtues: Mrs. has to wait for makeup, Mrs. has to remember her birthday, you have to endure beating and scolding, and you have to be willing to spend money. At that time, after Xie Shuyao heard Hu Shi's three obedience and four virtues, he completely changed his opinion of Hu Shi, and it turned out that the criteria for the evaluation of good boys by girls in later generations started from Hu Shi.

Xie Shuyao couldn't bear to disturb Hu Shi's two people talking about love; patted Bai Ruolin, who had been secretly watching Hu Shi's excitement on the side, and pulled her to the stele under the square pavilion on the side, Xie Shuyao thought that the two-meter-high stele was Zhan Tianyou's tombstone, but after a closer look, he found that it was not, but "the monument awarded by the president", the inscription said: "Therefore, the stele of Zhan Jun, the technical supervisor of the Ministry of Communications and the superintendent of the Hanyuechuan Railway, since Haitong, our country has selected scholars to study in the East and West for more than 40 years, and the back of the neck has been looking at each other to this day." During this period, there were many people who promoted education, revised laws, rectified the military and government, and applied the country with one material and one art. Seek his meritorious achievements, perseverance, praise at home and abroad, and cover those who are not like Zhanjun...... In July of the eighth year of the Republic of China, President Xu Shichang made "Xie Shuyao searched around for a long time, but did not find Zhan Tianyou's tombstone, and later Xie Shuyao inquired and learned that Zhan Tianyou's tombstone was not here.

After seeing her daughter get off the train, Xie's mother ran around excitedly, Xie's mother looked at her daughter and smiled with satisfaction, and said to her husband on the side: "You are right, my daughter is older, I should let her fly, what she needs is a wider world." ”

"Don't think about it, no matter where she flies, she always has to fly back." Father Xie comforted.

"I've brought my camera, let's take some pictures!" Mother Xie sighed lightly, remembered the small camera in her bag, and said to Father Xie, "Yaoyao, Ruolin, come here, I'll take a few pictures of you." ”

Xie Shuyao heard that she wanted to take pictures, and pulled Bai Ruolin to run under the bronze statue of Zhan Tianyou, Xie Shuyao was shy and Ruolin posed for a few couples, which made Ruolin blush for a long time. Xie's mother likes to take pictures of her daughter who can pose for many interesting poses, and Xie's mother feels that her daughter's photos are much more beautiful than the posters of Ruan Lingyu's female stars. After that, Xie Shuyao's family of three took two photos, and Xie Shuyao also specially pulled Xie's father and mother to pose with Zhan Tianyou's right hand in his pocket.

The group saw that they could still take pictures like this, so when they took pictures of Ruolin's family, their family also learned to pose some simple poses......

Seeing that everyone began to struggle to pose in various interesting poses, especially Hu Shi also pulled Mrs. Hu to learn the previous couple posture of Xie Shuyao and Ruolin, Xie Shuyao was amused by Hu Shi, it turned out that Hu Shi could be so cute.

Xie Shuyao saw that Jin Bihui, who had changed his clothes not far away, was looking at him with a smile on his face, so he ran over and blamed: "Why did you get out of the car, by the way, what about your friend?" ”

"They were afraid to disturb you, so they left first." Jin Bihui said with a smile.

As he was talking, Jin Bihui saw Xie Shuyao looking behind him in distraction, so he looked for Xie Shuyao's gaze, and saw only some vendors selling things back and forth in the train window, and asked Xie Shuyao a little strangely: "Sister Shuyao, what are you looking at?" ”

"Huh? It's nothing, maybe I'm wrong! Xie Shuyao said with some suspicion.

Xie Shuyao saw that there was a gray-shirted man behind Jin Bihui who was staring at him, and after seeing Xie Shuyao coming, the gray-clothed man immediately turned around and left, Xie Shuyao felt that this person was very similar to the gray-clothed man he had met at the train station before, so he looked at the gray-clothed man a little distracted.

Who is this man in gray? Why did he follow Xie Shuyao all the way to the Great Wall? The next chapter will uncover the mystery for you.
