Chapter 106: Heart
I changed my mood, my horizons were broadened, and my mind was broadened. xln
Lu Xiuzhi ate Western food, visited the Qiulin Company, visited the Modern Hotel, took photos in front of various Russian-style buildings and statues of great men, and even took a few trips on the tram.
She said to her daughter from the bottom of her heart, "I lived in vain, compared with the old Qin family before, my mother still felt that she was doing well, but now compared with your third aunt, it's nothing!" ”
Think about it and say, "I used to have a letter of introduction when I went out, I also had a letter of introduction to buy a train ticket, I had to have a letter of introduction for Gaha, it was not hard enough to go out, I really didn't know that it was so good outside, I always felt that no matter how good it was outside, how good it could be better than Jiayang?" It turns out that it is so much better! ”
Shen Mengxi smiled silently, she couldn't be sure whether the impact of this trip to Harbin was good or bad on Lu Xiuzhi.
"Zhuzhu, do you want to come to Hashi to go to school? Your cousin told me to let you come to Harbin City to go to middle school. The words were questions, and there was unconsciously reluctance in his expression.
Shen Mengxi shook his head, "It's the same wherever I go to school. ”
"What about you"
"I'll be with you in Jiayang, with grandpa, and I'm not going anywhere!"
"Hey, this little mouth, you can coax me!" Lu Xiuzhi immediately became happy, and two seconds later, with a hint of worry, she said, "Hurry up and release the film, I don't know what I can shoot, maybe I can't shoot what the doctor can't see!" Alas. ”
When the X-ray was in hand and the undoubted health results were obtained, Lu Xiuzhi's eyebrows were stretched and her face was full of smiles, as if all 36,000 pores on her body were competing to open up, exuding joy.
She solemnly put away the X-rays, and in front of her eldest sister and nephew, she said to her two sons openly, "If you two love to stay in Harbin City, you will stay in Harbin City, and if you love to return to Jiayang, you will return to Jiayang, no matter what your parents do, you can provide for you!" In the past, my mother was reluctant to let you go, and always wanted to bring you under her wings, but now my mother has figured it out, how can I be a mother to stop my child from having a good future! In the future, the two of you will have a future, the first one can't forget your third aunt's family, remember? ”
Qi Baokang and Qi Baoping nodded happily.
Qi Baokang took advantage of the situation and said, "Mom, I haven't dared to discuss it with you, my brother helped me contact me, saying that he could almost arrange for me to enter the railway public security office." ”
"Oh, such a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier!" Lu Xiuzhi was overjoyed.
"As soon as you came, I was so scared that I didn't dare to say anything."
"Huh." Lu Xiuzhi was a little embarrassed, "Mom is really going through it for the first time, and I'm a little scared, which makes your third aunt laugh." ”
"No one laughs at you, you have to be afraid of anyone who puts this on you." Qi Huici said, "Last time, my appetite was so blocked that I suspected that my stomach was full of tumors, so I went to Beijing for examination." ”
"Really? I thought I was cowardly. Lu Xiuzhi was immediately relieved.
"Mom, then you agree with me to stay in Harbin City?"
"Agreed! I have to agree if I can't bear it! Lu Xiuzhi gritted her teeth and said, suddenly remembering something, "I have to leave a lot of favors, my mother will mail you the money when she goes back, I already know why I don't perm my hair!" ”
"It does cost some money." He Jingyu said, "But it doesn't take much, I'll just come." ”
"That's okay! You're enough to worry about them, how can you pay for it! ”
He Jingyu did not argue, and nodded yes.
Lu Xiuzhi sorted out the luggage to go back, and thought inexplicably, if the second child could find a daughter-in-law in Harbin City, give birth to a child, and go to a good school, would the father-in-law no longer say that their children are stupid.
Shen Mengxi noticed that He Jingyu had a lot of calls, and there was a pager pinned to his waist, and as soon as the tick rang, he immediately went to call back, and listened to a few words, as if he was talking about some big deal.
At this time, the wind of approving strips and going through the back door is flourishing, and people do not think that it is an unhealthy trend, but only think that it is capable and has a way, in addition to saying a few sour words, it is more envy.
Come to think of it, He Jingyu in the ivory tower in life also took advantage of the second generation of officials and started his career.
Shen Mengxi sat next to He Jingyu, and when he saw him finish calling, he said, "Brother Jingyu, can you show me your pager?" ”
He Jingyu took off the pager and showed it to her.
It's a green Panasonic pager with a narrow display and four black buttons. In 1987, there were not many people in the country who could use pagers.
"What is your paging number, I'll write it down, I can contact you if I have something."
"Hey, the little girl understands! You remember, 126 passes 12900588. ”
"Got it." Shen Mengxi pressed the button a few more times, and the narrow screen displayed a string of numbers, showing the area code of Beijing, "How much is this pager?" ”
"Less than 2,000 yuan, 30 yuan a month."
"Huh? So expensive! Lu Xiuzhi heard it, came over a few steps, and grabbed the pager, "What are you pressing, what's wrong with it!" ”
After speaking, he carefully returned it to He Jingyu.
Shen Mengxi held his hands empty and smiled helplessly.
"Little aunt, it's okay, it's not bad." He Jingyu hurriedly relieved Shen Mengxi.
He Yuhang ran over, "Dad, you don't even show me, hum!" ”
"Come here, Grandma Ming'er will buy one for you! It's better than his one! ”
"Humph! Adults are liars, everything is to catch up with Ming'er! He Yuhang complained in disappointment, and everyone laughed.
Shen Mengxi didn't smile, she touched the two heads on He Yuhang's hair, and didn't say anything.
Qi Huici's original intention was to let Lu Xiuzhi stay for a few more days, wait for Qi Baoping to finish the school, and return to Jiayang with the two of them.
But Qi Huici felt that it was too troublesome for her eldest sister's family, and she was even more worried that Qi Youheng couldn't eat, so on the evening of the second day after getting the X-ray, she asked He Jingyu to buy them a sleeper ticket back.
He Jingyu didn't have Qi You's consciousness of being diligent and thrifty, so he bought two lower bunks at once, Lu Xiuzhi got the ticket, and he had to give his nephew money for the ticket in life and death, and it was a little ugly to tear it, He Jingyu had to take it, looked at his mother with a wry smile, Qi Huici raised his head at her, and smiled.
In private, Lu Xiuzhi poked Shen Mengxi's head, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bought a sleeper, death is expensive!" I knew I wouldn't let you come! Alas, this trip is too much of a loss, there is no disease, and the money is less to spend. ”
Shen Mengxi was numb and motionless, looking out the window, letting her poke her head.
The luggage back was three large bags, one of which contained two pieces of clothing.
One is the fur windbreaker eliminated by He Jingyu, and the other is the long mink coat given by Qi Huici.
Shen Mengxi recognized that they were all high-quality materials, eighty percent new, Qi Huici's original words were, "My brother has to have a few decent clothes around him, don't dislike it for being old, in fact, he hasn't worn it twice." ”
Lu Xiuzhi was very embarrassed, she felt that she suddenly seemed to be a person who wanted to eat, and she had the heart to refuse, but the eldest sister's sentence of "decent clothes" blocked her mouth again, there are many children in the family, going to school, and getting married are waiting for money, and there is no spare money to buy clothes for her husband.
But he still said, "Sister, you always wear a police uniform every day, you don't need this"
"Wear a police uniform!" Qi Huici immediately said, "This mink, I bought fat, and I basically can't wear it in Bincheng, so it's better to wear it for you, it's not a waste." ”
I couldn't help but let Lu Xiuzhi put it on, Lu Xiuzhi, who had permed her hair, put on a mink, she herself felt that she was the wife of the Kuomintang in the movie, and she was busy taking it off, "I can't wear it, I'm blind when I wear it to work!" ”
"If you can't wear it, you will transfer it to the third daughter-in-law, and I also gave them a lot of things last time Baohua and his family came. I accompany Lao He in the nursing home every day, and I don't have much chance to wear these, so the children bought new ones, and this one will be given to you. ”
After several excuses, Lu Xiuzhi still carried the big bag.
Qi Baokang and the brothers bought platform tickets to send them on the train, passing by the military waiting room, Qi Baoping said, "If the fourth child is here, you can get on the train from here, and you don't have to follow a large group of people to queue up." ”
Lu Xiuzhi's eyes were yearning and pride, "The words in the fourth letter are all good-looking!" It used to crawl like an old cockroach. ”
Shen Mengxi noticed that there were seven or eight people in the waiting room, not wearing military uniforms, but with special costumes, one of them was wearing a satin floral shirt, and frequently took down the BP machine on his waist to look through it. The man was keenly aware of her gaze, looked up at her coldly, Shen Mengxi was not afraid, smiled kindly, and quickly followed Lu Xiuzhi and them.
