Chapter 13 Five Hundred Years Ago, One Family
At the train station, I heard Zhang Guoqing say that Meng Tao learned that the Qianqian steel mill in the southern suburbs of the provincial capital is thirty miles away from the city, far away, although there are special shuttle buses between the steel mill and the city every day, but at this time, I am afraid that there is really no car, and it is lucky to be able to hitchhike.
On the way, Meng Zhehan no longer made a report to Shen Yu, but chatted with Meng Tao in front of him, the little girl is well-behaved and polite, and she will answer all questions, what kind of sigh does he make, the little girl can still respond to two sentences, which is much more interesting than ice cube Shen Yu.
Sink. Ice cube. Yu: That's right, I can close my eyes and recuperate.
And Meng Tao, who left Linshui Village, doesn't always need to remember that she is Meng Taohua, she doesn't need to pretend to hide her true temperament, and when she comes to a relatively familiar city, she is a little self-indulgent, and her speech and demeanor are not very in line with the identity of a rural girl who rarely goes out and has little knowledge.
In this era, there are very few people who can sit in a car, not to mention the countryside, even in the city, many people are very stiff for the first time in a car, lest they break something, some people stare at the window and their eyes can't turn, and Meng Tao is very natural as soon as she gets in the car, she first subconsciously touched the seat belt, but she didn't find the thing, she looked at the driver and didn't wear the seat belt, so she sat on the seat very relaxed, only glanced at the scenery outside the window, but calmly looked at the driver's seat and a few instruments in front of her, The night wind was a bit strong, so she didn't need to ask for advice, she rolled up the window herself.
Meng Zhehan didn't notice these when she sat behind her, but Shen Yu closed his eyes, and the little driver Ding Hao looked at it, a little surprised, and inevitably began to mumble in his heart again: This rural girl is a little different.
Meng Zhehan and Meng Tao chatted very casually, without a fixed topic, completely jumping thinking, flickering east and west, for example, the last second was still talking about the customs of the countryside, special food, and the next second they praised that there was a neon sign over there that was really beautiful, and then then chatted about another irrelevant topic, suddenly someone said that the night breeze was so cool, autumn was coming, and the other said that there were no stars in the sky, and it hadn't rained for a long time, but the one who answered didn't care about the weather, and jumped to the train that Meng Tao was on. asked where they passed on the road, and also asked about the relationship between Meng Taohua and Zhang Guoqing, how many chickens, ducks and pigs were raised at home, whether there were cats and dogs, and even a pair of middle-aged men and women walking at night on the side of the road illuminated by the car lights......
Don't think that two people are just trying to pass the time and deal casually, the people who are listening can tell the difference, this is definitely a very serious conversation.
The driver Ding Hao was speechless, he heard this kind of chat for the first time, it was not coherent at all, but it could continue with great interest and harmony.
Shen Yu seemed to be asleep and indifferent.
Later, Meng Zhehan suddenly praised Peach Blossom for speaking Mandarin well, with a sweet voice, and good eloquence, and the words were correct and round, and he was about to catch up with the announcer.
Meng Tao was startled, almost broke out in a cold sweat, and secretly reminded herself to be careful not to be careless, so that it would be bad for people to see that it was unreasonable.
He said that he had set up a literacy class in his village, and the teachers in the classes were all educated youths from the city, all of whom spoke Mandarin, and the brigade had loudspeakers, which played songs and dramas in the morning and evening, and a propaganda team came to show movies every month...... Because she likes it, she thinks about learning by herself.
Meng Zhehan expressed his belief and praised her for her talent and strong learning ability. Encourage her to continue her studies.
After that, the two of them stopped talking, Meng Tao felt a little uneasy, but heard Meng Zhehan say in the back: "Alas, it's uncomfortable, my head hurts, and my stomach is uncomfortable, won't we drink a fake bar tonight?" ”
The young man sitting next to him finally spoke, his voice was low and pleasant, but his tone was indifferent and ruthless: "If it doesn't work, tell Ding Hao to stop, you go down quickly, don't get the car dirty." ”
Meng Zhehan: "It didn't get to that point. ”
Meng Tao thought to herself that Mr. Meng had drunk too much, no wonder there were so many mouths and tongues that loved to talk.
She reached into her schoolbag and actually took out three green-peeled oranges from the space, this is an orange tree planted in the vegetable garden behind Zhou Cuiling's house, it has bent branches, it is not fully ripe, and it is so sour that it is sour, Zhou Cuiling is afraid that Meng Tao will be bored in the car, so she picked eight for her to relieve her fatigue and wake up on the road, and Meng Tao put it into the space.
I wanted to reduce the weight of the schoolbag, but I didn't expect to put it for a day, I was thirsty on the train and took one out to eat, just peeled off the skin, the unique citrus fragrance immediately spread, overflowing the entire carriage, biting a petal full of juice, sweet with a little sour, very refreshing and delicious, crying with several children in the same carriage, noisy, Meng Tao had to share a petal by one person, so that many people knew that she had oranges, and some people were looking for her to buy them for motion sickness, Meng Tao said that there was no more, and then he didn't dare to eat again.
This will make Mr. Meng drunk and uncomfortable, oranges can relieve hangover, and the fragrance can also make him feel better, send three, which can be regarded as a chat of gratitude, thank them for their kindness to let her hitchhike.
"Teacher Meng, eating an orange may be better."
Meng Tao turned his head to the back seat, handed over the two oranges, and quickly peeked at the young man sitting next to Teacher Meng.
In the streamer passing outside the car window, the silhouettes of beautiful men are so pleasing to the eye, the beautiful men of this era are authentic and superb, without any plastic surgery, 100% natural.
Meng Zhehan is a fan scholar type, with beautiful scenery, handsome and elegant, but also a little lazy and idle;
The brother next to him is a little indescribable, with deep sword eyebrows, high nose and thin lips, three-dimensional facial features, and rare handsomeness, perhaps because he is not smiling, and has a deep and introverted temperament that is not close to people.
In this era, the enthusiastic and hearty sunny man is the most popular and recognized as a decent image, but like him, he is like a villain behind the mysterious belly.
Meng Tao doesn't care about the villain now, she is interested in outstanding appearance, what is a high-end and deep beautiful man, is the sauce purple drop duck!
When she got into the car just now, she glanced at it, and the appearance of the fairy made her always want to turn back, but she was afraid that the rear exhaust aura was a little strong, and she didn't have the guts, so she finally had the opportunity not to look at it in vain.
Meng Zhehan stretched out his hand to take the two fruits and asked, "This is an orange?" ”
"Yes, it can wake up."
Shen Yu noticed that the little girl named Peach Blossom looked at him, and when he heard her say the word "wake up", the corners of his lips curled slightly: every time he drank a little high, he talked a lot, and he classified it as a brain disorder, and now, doesn't he just need to wake up?
Meng Zhehan swallowed: "Sour, right?" ”
Meng Tao: "It's sweet, a little sour, you'll know it if you taste it." ”
Meng Zhehan peeled off an orange, and suddenly the car was full of fragrance, and he inhaled deeply: "Oh, it's so comfortable!" Why didn't you think that the aroma of oranges smelled so good? ”
"It's really fragrant!"
Ding Hao drove the car, and he was also in good spirits, sniffed hard, and said: "It must be a different variety, I also have an orange tree at home, but it is not so fragrant!" ”
Meng Tao gave him an orange: "It's yours." ”
Ding Hao politely excused himself: "Don't, don't." ”
Meng Tao smiled: "You also said that it is a different variety, produced in my hometown, try it." ”
"Thank you then." This aroma is so attractive that Ding Hao couldn't help but take it.
Meng Zhehan had already begun to taste it, first frowned, carefully bit a petal, and then immediately stretched his brows, sent them into his mouth one by one, and quickly ate the whole one.
I couldn't help but exclaim: "It's delicious!" It's just the right amount of sweetness and sourness, and most importantly, it's the most amazing and delicious orange I've ever tasted! ”
He said to Meng Tao again: "Thank you Peach Blossom, I'm really much more comfortable now." But it's a gift you brought to your relatives from your hometown, right? Let us eat, but there will be less. ”
"Oranges are not ripe, how can they be gifts? I only brought a few to eat in the car to relieve boredom, and this is the rest. ”
"It tastes so good before it's ripe. If you're nearby, I'll have to buy all your oranges. ”
"You don't need to buy it, if my home is nearby, I can invite you to eat it, whatever you want."
Meng Tao said casually, anyway, it is assumed, her house will not really be nearby, and it doesn't matter if there are oranges or not.
Meng Zhehan was very happy: "Haha! Thank you for that. Oh, I only know that your name is Peach Blossom, but I don't know what your surname is? ”
Meng Tao was funny, Zhang Guoqing obviously told him his name and gender, so he must have not paid attention to it at the time: "My surname is Meng, and my name is Meng Taohua." ”
"Oh? Coincidentally, my surname is Meng, so we have the same surname? Isn't that a family five hundred years ago, and five hundred years later? Fate! ”
Meng Tao: "......"
Yes, it's fate, so I can get in your car.
Meng Zhehan smiled happily again: "Sister Peach Blossom, you have to call me brother." When you arrive at the steel mill, I'll help you inquire about that relative, it doesn't matter if you don't find it for the time being, I'll arrange a place for you to live, don't worry! ”
Meng Tao doesn't need to make arrangements, she has money and identity certificates, and she can live in a guest house, but she still wants to express her gratitude to Meng Zhehan for her enthusiasm: "Thank you, brother." ”
"Family, you're welcome."
Shen Yu sat on the side expressionlessly, but secretly slandered himself: This guy has caused him a lot of trouble in the blink of an eye.
The two of them call their brothers and sisters affectionately, after five hundred years of confession, he has nothing to do, but he will have to find someone later, and if he can't find a place to live, then it's all his business, who let him have a home in the steel mill, counting on Meng Zhehan? Impossible.
