Chapter 30: The Green Train
At this time, all eyes were focused on Tian Zhigao, Tian Zhigao was stunned for a moment, and his face became even more ugly: "What happened at home?" Why do you say it now? Meng Taohua, you are simply ...... Do you have a conscience? ”
"Of course I have a conscience. You know that I didn't say it earlier, but when you saw me, why didn't you ask about your family first? Just look at your new wife's face and deal with me first, which shows that you are a person without conscience! ”
After Meng Tao finished speaking, he didn't have time to see Tian Zhigao's reaction, and walked out of the ticket gate without looking back, the train was already roaring into the station, Zhang Guoqing bought two platform tickets and sent her on the train with Meng Zhehan.
Tian Zhigao Muran stood in the waiting room, looked through the glass window, watched Zhang Guoqing lead Meng Tao on the train, Meng Zhehan stood under the car, and when they found a seat and opened the window, Meng Zhehan handed the two travel bags in, and then stood there and said something to Meng Tao in the window.
Not long after Zhang Guoqing came down, standing beside Meng Zhehan, Meng Tao lay on the window and said a few words to him, as if he suddenly remembered something, retracted his head, and after a while, he showed his head again, stretched out his hand and handed out two green peel fruits, both men didn't take it at first, Zhang Guoqing also waved his hand, probably to let her keep it in the car to eat, but I don't know what Meng Tao said, Zhang Guoqing immediately stretched out his hands to take it, but Meng Zhehan was faster than him, and directly grabbed all the fruits, Zhang Guoqing chased Meng Zhehan to ask, and Meng Zhehan gave him a fruit, Zhang Guoqing took the fruit and sniffed it again, smiled like a fool, and put it in his coat pocket with cherishment.
Tian Zhigao saw clearly that it was an orange, his mouth was inexplicably pantothenic, and he also felt sour in his heart: Meng Taohua, when did he become so popular? He was sure that she had never been far away before, this was her first time in the provincial capital, why did she make friends with people like Meng Zhehan and Shen Yu?
Shen Yu is the son of Director Shen, I heard Xian Fangfang say that he is a genius, he graduated from college at the age of seventeen or eighteen, working in the capital, and gathering like things, Meng Zhehan must not be an ordinary person.
There are two guest houses in the steel mill, Meng Taohua can live in a high-end guest house, he felt very strange at the time, but now he understands, it is Shen Yu and Meng Zhehan, this Meng Zhehan is also surnamed Meng, is it possible, is it Meng Taohua's own relative? Why haven't you heard of it before?
His mother Wang Shuifeng has already investigated Meng Shengli's bottom clearly, although Meng Shengli is not a native of Linshui Village, but his roots and ancestors are indeed rural for eight generations, just in the neighboring commune, farming for a living, so what is going on with this Meng Zhehan?
Perhaps, is it because of that Zhang Guoqing?
Tian Zhigao's mind flashed, and he felt that he had guessed correctly, which should be the reason for Zhang Guoqing: he had an impression of Zhang Guoqing, his home was in the town market, and he often ran to Linshui Village since he was a child, and he was a relative of Zhou Shi'an, the captain of the Linshui Brigade.
Meng Taohua was able to come to the provincial capital smoothly, with such and such a certificate, needless to say that Zhou Shi'an and other brigade cadres were Zhang Luo for her, Meng Shengli had a good relationship with the cadres of the brigade back then, this Zhang Guoqing seems to be working in the provincial capital, seeing that he is closely following Meng Zhehan, the relationship between the two is not shallow, Meng Taohua can come to the provincial capital, and get Meng Zhehan and Shen Yu to help him, Zhang Guoqing plays a key role.
She's lucky, but what? When you're in a good mood, everyone is willing to do good deeds, but it's impossible to stick to it for a lifetime.
Meng Taohua this time, it was just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse.
Tian Zhigao watched the train leave the station, squinted, turned around and walked away quickly, and went to the post and telecommunications office, although he was annoyed that the family didn't take a good look at the peach blossoms and let her run around, but after all, it was his parents and family, what could he do except bear the consequences? I don't know if it's true that Peach Blossom said that his father and sister were hospitalized?
He had to write a letter home to ask, and by the way, he told himself about the situation here, because he went to the workshop, the salary was also in short supply, and he had to take care of his pregnant daughter-in-law to eat and drink well.
It's Liang Tiezhu, he can go to work in the sugar factory, and if he knows how to be grateful, he will save his salary and help his parents-in-law.
Although the speed of the green train is not as good as the high-speed rail bullet train of later generations, it is not bad at present, and it will leave the provincial capital soon, Meng Tao took the green train for the second time, and has been accustomed to the noise of "ding ding ding", listening to it quite rhythmically, looking at the scenery of the fields outside the window, and feeling a little emotional.
Meng Zhehan asked her about her plans to return to the countryside, and she made it up very nicely, but to be honest, she really didn't know what to do.
She is not the real Meng Taohua, and she will definitely fall behind by earning work points, but she is confident that things are man-made, the road is out, and she can always find a way to support herself.
What's more, she also has a golden finger, although the small space is poor, it is a safety guarantee, and it is also a big help to use it carefully.
She just needs to go through a few years of peace and quiet, and by the time she enters the eighties, everything will be fine.
Meng Tao consolidated his confidence and took a deep breath out of the window, the green train also has its benefits, you can open the window, stretch out your hand and wave, the breeze is refreshing, the heart is relaxed, and the pure air unique to this era is very comfortable.
Enough at the window, look back at the three passengers in the same seat, the same seat is a woman about thirty years old, two men opposite, dressed up, demeanor shows that they are from the city, look at her with the eyes of a hillbilly, Meng Tao doesn't care: the village aunt has never taken this kind of train, fresh and curious, how to drop it!
The train was running fast, the weather was changing, and in the evening, it was raining heavily, the windows had to be closed, and the carriage was a little stuffy, but fortunately it was autumn, so it was not too hot and uncomfortable.
The car broadcast that the food truck was open, hot meals were served, and at the same time, there were waiters pushing small carts through the carriages to sell, and the glass cover of the small cart was divided into two layers, one was cigarettes, newspapers, and the other was bread, cakes, fried twist fruits, melon seeds and peanuts.
A man on the opposite side bought a pack of cigarettes, bought a pack of peanuts and threw it on the small table in the middle, and said to Meng Tao and the woman next to him: "Eat, relieve boredom." ”
Meng Tao and the woman thanked them in unison, but they didn't take it, the fruit snacks that Meng Zhehan and Zhang Guoqing bought were on the luggage rack above, I don't want to eat it now, I was quite full for lunch, and I didn't feel hungry yet.
But she really wanted to see what the food truck looked like, so she took the opportunity to get up and walk over to see it, and go to the toilet to wash her hands.
After walking through three carriages, I arrived at the dining car, which was made from a carriage, half of which was the kitchen, and half of which was placed with two rows of dining tables, and there were already people sitting and dining, Meng Tao walked to the front of the counter across the kitchen, and saw that there was actually mustard preserved egg and lean porridge, just out of the pot steaming, one dime and two cents per bowl, no tickets.
Meng Tao asked the waiter, the food on the train doesn't need a ticket, and it's very cheap, it's amazing, I don't know why.
Meng Tao wanted to eat vegetable porridge, so she reached out and took out the schoolbag she was carrying to see that the new lunch box she bought was used, right? I asked for a bowl of mustard greens, preserved eggs, and lean porridge, sat in the dining car and ate it slowly, washed the lunch box before going back.
