Chapter 164: Go north with my uncle
This dinner lasted longer than noon, and by the time Grandpa Xu and the others finished drinking, they saw that Huan was sitting on a chair, already nodding and dozing off.
Shen Yunqi took off his military jacket and wrapped up Duan Huan and hugged him back.
When I got home, I wiped her hands, feet and face with a hot cloth before stuffing her into the bed.
Grandpa Xu saw that Shen Yunqi took care of Duan Huan very carefully, and couldn't help but nodded, feeling that he could rest assured that he would hand over Duan Huan to Shen Yunqi for a few days.
The next day, Grandpa Xu and Shen Yunqi rushed to the train station early in the morning with all their joy.
"Yunqi, this is a thick dress for Xiao Yu'er," Grandpa Xu handed the burden to Shen Yunqi, "When she is noisy and hot, don't let her undress by her temperament!" ”
Shen Yunqi took over the burden, "Don't worry, I will take care of the little fish!" ”
Only then did Huan react, it turned out that Grandpa Xu didn't plan to go to the capital with her.
"Ancestor ......" took Grandpa Xu's hand and coquettishly.
After coming here for so many years, Duan Huan has never left Grandpa Xu, so he is naturally very reluctant.
Grandpa Xu smoothed his hair, "Xiao Yu'er, follow your uncle to the capital for a few days, don't you like tanks and fighters, let your uncle take you to the army to see!" ”
"Zuzu, you buy a ticket to go with me!" Duan Huan shook Grandpa Xu's hand, "Otherwise, what do I think you should do?" ”
"You'll be back in a few days, Zuzu, this old bone is too lazy to run back and forth, besides, Zuzu still has to go home to watch the lynx and Xiaojin, we are not here, what if they cut off?" Grandpa Xu patiently explained to Duan Huan.
Looking at the reluctant appearance of Duan Huan and Grandpa Xu, Shen Yunqi on the side was clear.
Grandpa Xu is planning to let Duan Huan stay alone with him for a few days to cultivate his nephew's feelings.
The conductor was in front of the train door and began to remind him again that he needed to hurry up when he got on the train.
Grandpa Xu also urged Shen Yunqi and Huanhuan to get into the car quickly, otherwise the door would be closed.
Wan Huan got on the car and lay on the window, looking at Grandpa Xu standing on the platform and waving at her, his nose couldn't help but be a little sour.
"Zuzu, you have to eat, drink and sleep well at home alone, my uncle will take care of me, don't worry about me!" Wan Huan stuck her head out the window.
Grandpa Xu couldn't cry or laugh when he heard Duan Huan's words, "Dead doll, what I want to say is all you said, what else do I say?" ”
"Zuzu, then I'll leave, don't think too much about me!" Huan made a grimace, wanting to amuse Grandpa Xu.
Grandpa Xu waved his hand simply, the train had already started, Grandpa Xu's figure was getting smaller and smaller, and soon he couldn't see it, so he sat back on the bed.
"Isn't it sad that Xiao Yu'er left Zuzu?" Shen Yunqi touched Duan Huan's head.
Duan Huan shook his head and said: "It's not sad, it's just a little unaccustomed, and Zuzu may not be used to it!" ”
However, Huanhuan's adaptability was excellent, and he quickly cleaned up his emotions, took out the beef jerky from his bag, and shared it with Shen Yunqi.
Shen Yunqi tasted a slice and didn't eat it, this is his niece's teeth, he is really embarrassed to eat more as a big man.
Chewing beef jerky, I didn't forget to observe the passengers on the opposite bunk.
In order to be comfortable when he sleeps, Shen Yunqi is afraid that he will be crowded when he sleeps, so he bought two full tickets, and there are only two bunks left in the carriage.
An old couple with gray hair in the bunk opposite, both of them were wearing Mao suits with four pockets, and their temperament was very upright.
The old couple also brought a four or five-year-old little girl, the girl was white and clean, and her facial features were very delicate.
She smelled the smell of beef jerky, sniffed slightly, and secretly swallowed twice.
However, she didn't stare at Wan Huan, but tilted her head slightly, looking restrained and educated.
Huan grabbed three slices of beef jerky and handed them to the little girl, "Little sister, please eat jerky!" ”
The little girl didn't immediately reach out to pick it up, but looked at the two old people beside her.
"Little sister, jerky is so precious, you better keep it for yourself!" The old lady stopped beating the yarn in her hand.
The old man had a different opinion, "The dolls have their own communication, don't interfere with the old woman, Xiaoxue can take it if she wants." ”
Xiaoxue took the beef jerky with both hands and raised a bright smile, "Thank you, sister!" ”
"You're welcome, this is my own beef jerky made at home, you can't buy it outside, you can try it, it's delicious!" Huanhuan immediately started the mode of selling melons to Wang Po.
Xiaoxue gave the beef jerky to the two old men, and then began to eat the piece in her hand, she took a bite, and a pair of apricot eyes immediately lit up.
"Isn't it delicious?" Asked her with a smile.
Xiaoxue chewed the beef jerky and nodded in a panic, the words in her mouth were a little blurred, "Sister, this jerky is really roaring and eating!" ”
The old couple looked at their granddaughter nodding wildly, and also tried it, and both husband and wife couldn't help nodding.
The old lady immediately began to inquire with Duan Huan, "Little sister, this is beef, right?" ”
"Grandma, you have a real tongue!" He replied with a smile.
The old lady nodded, "The old woman has never eaten such delicious beef jerky, and it doesn't smell at all, how did you do it?" ”
"Before the beef is marinated, it is soaked in water with cooking wine and spices! Change the water a few more times and you won't be fat! Duan Huan began to communicate with the old lady.
……
After the exchange between the two sides, they reported to each other's homes, the old man's surname was Jiang, and the old couple used to be engaged in education and propaganda work, but they retired at the beginning of this year when they saw that the limelight was wrong.
Seeing that the situation is becoming more and more tense now, the daughter-in-law of the old couple, that is, Xiaoxue's mother, is pregnant and is about to give birth, and the old lady has to go over to take care of the confinement.
The old couple simply took their granddaughter to change the grain relationship and went to Qin Province to reunite with their son and daughter-in-law.
After listening to it, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
Although the conditions in Qin Province are much worse than before them, the family is neat and safe, and it is a great happiness now.
After the two sides got to know each other, they heard that Old Man Jiang and Shen Yunqi both liked to play chess, so they took out pocket chess from their shoulder bags.
"Uncle, Grandpa Jiang, what do you think this is?" He cheered the sheepskin chessboard and sandalwood chess pieces in Yang's hand.
Shen Yunqi took it happily, "Why are you still carrying chess?" ”
"I'm afraid that my uncle will be bored on the road, I originally thought of my stinky chess basket, and barely made up a number," Duan Huan handed over the chess to Shen Yunqi's hands, "Now that I have Grandpa Jiang, a ready-made chess friend, I won't be ugly!" ”
"Xiao Yu'er is really a caring little padded jacket, and even this has been taken into account!" Shen Yunqi stroked Huanhuan's hair with his big hand.
The old man Jiang on the opposite side also smiled and praised: "Comrade Shen has such a niece, what a blessing!" ”
Hearing these words, Duan Huan was very embarrassed, how could it be so exaggerated as they said, these things were all carried by her in the space.
Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang are both easy-going people, and with the lively and lovely Xiaoxue, the journey from Sichuan Province to Chang'an was very pleasant.
During this period, Mrs. Jiang also taught Duan Huan several special wool weaving methods, which was an unexpected joy.
I worked in a clothing studio in my last life, but I only knew a few very basic stitches for yarn.
Because in the 21st century, machine knitwear is very good in terms of quality and pattern, and the price is frugal according to the material and pattern, so few young women can knit sweaters.
If a girl can knit a woolen scarf with a simple strip style, it is already very skillful.
Along the way, the atmosphere was harmonious to Chang'an, and Duan Huan and Shen Yunqi said goodbye to the Jiang family outside the train station.
Old Man Jiang warmly invited his nephew and uncle to her son's house as guests, but Shen Yunqi politely declined.
It's already luck that everyone meets each other and gets along happily on the journey, and there are pregnant women in the house, so they really shouldn't come to disturb them.
Before parting, Xiaoxue and Duan Huan exchanged mailing addresses and said that they would write a letter to Duan Huan.
Shen Yunqi bought a train ticket to leave at night, he left his unimportant luggage at the train station, and then took him to Chang'an City to go shopping and eating.
Chang'an City is mainly pasta-based, and the eating methods are very similar to the personalities of the people here, which are relatively rough.
But the noodles here are particularly chewy, so that Du Huan, who doesn't have a lot of cold to pasta, eats very happily.
There is a Hui settlement in Xi'an, and the mutton noodles and mutton steamed buns made in halal restaurants are simply amazing.
Although there is a lot of meat in it, it tastes really good.
Shen Yunqi was a scout before he was promoted, and it took him two hours to figure out the terrain.
Before returning to the train station, I also found a small hidden black market, and bought some snacks such as dried dates, apricots, and almonds for Duhuan.
Luckily, there was no one in their sleeper car, so they could lock the door and sleep until dawn.
At this time, the temperature in the north had already dropped below zero, and Shen Yunqi remembered Grandpa Xu's advice, and directly wrapped Duan Huan into a ball.
By the time they arrived at the capital and exited the train station, it was already covered in snow.
Shen Yunqi slipped his luggage in one hand and hugged him with one hand.
Duan Huan originally wanted to come down and walk by himself, but was rejected by Shen Yunqi, saying that with such a deep snow, the cotton shoes would be soaked if they couldn't carry it for a while.
"Chief! Heads! A soldier in a military coat waved vigorously at Shen Yunqi.
This soldier was Shen Yunqi's guard, and he sent him a telegram in Chang'an, asking him to pick up the station.
Shen Yunqi hurriedly hugged Duan Huan and carried his luggage and squeezed out of the crowd.
When Shen Yunqi and Duan Huan arrived in front of the warrior, the round-faced and big-eyed warrior rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"Chief, how is the chief?" The warrior stammered a little as he saluted, "You've only been gone for a few days, why are you so old?" ”
Looking at the soldier's cute appearance, he laughed with a "poof".
"Stinky boy! You have a long head just to look tall? Shen Yunqi stuffed the duffel bag to him, "This is Lao Tzu's niece!" ”
"Niece?" The soldier scratched his head with his duffel bag, "Chief, have you found your sister?" ”
Shen Yunqi knocked on the brim of this little soldier's military hat angrily, "Zhou Guangchuan, is your baby too hot to panic, go back and add a meal of anti-freezing training in a while!" ”
"Chief, chief, don't mind, can't I go?" This little warrior called Zhou Guangchuan had a flattering expression and said to Shen Yunqi.
While he started the car, he still couldn't hold back his words, "Chief......"
"Shut up, chief! Hurry up and drive, or you won't be able to catch up with the meal when you go back in a while! Shen Yunqi intercepted the words without mercy.
He knows himself too well as a guard, this baby was excellent in the company before, but this mouth is too annoying, so he was exiled to himself as a guard, also for the sake of a good temperament.
