Chapter 5: Losing Your ID Card
On the morning of the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Hu Shanshan woke me up at only six o'clock, and Cui hurried to the train station. We were in the car at 11 o'clock in the morning, so it was really unnecessary to rush so early, and I couldn't help but complain.
The breakfast buffet in the hotel was until half past seven, and I was afraid that I would not be able to eat an appetizing meal at the train station, so I suggested that I go to the riverside street for breakfast first. Hu Shanshan was reluctant, but after seeing that there was indeed plenty of time to take a look at her wrist, she didn't say anything more.
Many of the shops along the river have closed down, and we walked dozens of meters along the way before we saw a duck blood vermicelli shop. The duck blood duck neck is a local specialty, and the smell of the fragrance is mouth-watering.
Hu Shanshan repeatedly emphasized that she was not hungry, so she added three cakes and drank the duck blood soup. After eating and having a fever all over her stomach, Hu Shanshan loosened her scarf and asked me to take a praising bag. At this time, I was used by the cool breeze by the river, and I felt refreshed. I sighed at the Yangtze River! Is this leaving?
"I really want to stay, don't leave!"
Hu Shanshan looked at me in disbelief, and smiled: "If you want to stay, stay!" But I'm not with you. ”
"Why am I staying here without you?"
"You can stay and raise ducks."
"Raising ducks?" I wondered, "Why do you have such ducks?" ”
"Hit the market and let the duck blood vermicelli drop the price!"
I glanced back at the price list on the glass door of the duck blood shop, and I didn't think it was ridiculously expensive. I even think that the taste of this store is more than worth the price.
"Your view of finance is unique enough."
A taxi drove behind me during the conversation, and I looked at the license plate and beckoned Hu Shanshan to get in.
Hu Shanshan finally took a deep breath at the Yangtze River and suddenly turned around.
When I arrived at the train station, Hu Shanshan walked in front of me to open the way, and I dragged my suitcase to follow, until Hu Shanshan reached out to me at the security checkpoint to boast about my bag:
"Wrap it up for me"
"Huh?"
"Bag, I'll get my ID."
Hu Shanshan saw that I was slow to answer, so she turned around. Seeing me pushing the suitcase and looking at myself with a stunned expression, Hu Shanshan's eyes widened. "Oh my God! Lu Xia, where do I pack? ”
"I ...... I didn't see it! ”
"What do you mean you don't see? I'll give it to you. ”
Suddenly my brain buzzed, like a bomb had exploded inside, erasing all my memories.
"Isn't it...... Lost your rental in the car? ”
Hu Shanshan took a deep breath and kicked me and shouted, "Why don't you call yet?" ”
I hurriedly flipped through my phone, found the phone number of the driver of the online hailing platform, and dialed it.
The driver on the other end of the phone was also very cooperative, but he didn't find Hu Shanshan's bag. Hu Shanshan and I held our mobile phones and asked him to look carefully, but it didn't work!
Hung up the phone, Hu Shanshan looked at me with a fierce look in her eyes, as if I had stabbed her parents.
"Lu Xia, you left my bag in the duck blood vermicelli shop."
"Ang...... Well......! Possibly"
I'm not convinced, and I'm even beginning to wonder if Hu Shanshan has such a bag.
Hu Shanshan glanced at her wrist, and then looked at the flow of people queuing up to enter the waiting hall, and her eyes began to moisten: "It's definitely too late." ”
"Let's go back and find the bag first, we can book a ticket for the afternoon."
"It's the end of the year, how can it be so easy to book tickets" Hu Shanshan roared, and frantically smacked her fingers in front of me, "I really want to strangle you!" ”
Without ID cards, we couldn't go anywhere, so Hu Shanshan and I finally took a taxi back to Yanjiang Avenue. The duck blood shop is only open for breakfast, and the owner was mopping the floor at this time, and when he saw us rummaging through the door, he thought he had met a robber.
"What are you looking for?" The boss asked
Hu Shanshan hurriedly ran over and bowed politely, and asked, "Boss, have you seen a white bag?" I dropped you here around 06:40 in the morning. ”
Hu Shanshan said and compared the size and shape of the bag again, and her face showed an anxious look.
The boss shook his head: "I really didn't see it!" ”
"Didn't you? Think about it, or ask the hostess if she saw it? ”
Seeing that Hu Shanshan was so anxious, the boss had to go to the back kitchen to ask, and then brought the disappointment to us.
"Girl, I really didn't see it. If it falls on my store, I will definitely put it away for you, and it's useless for me to ask for it! ”
The duck blood shop did not install monitoring, and this matter is no longer here. Later, Hu Shanshan and I went to the hotel to look for it, but we still couldn't find it. I don't know which link went wrong, but the fact in front of me is that the bag is really missing, and the most important thing is that Hu Shanshan's ID card is inside. We only have one afternoon to reissue it, and it's definitely too late to buy tickets.
"What should I do?" Hu Shanshan in the hotel lobby was so anxious that she wanted to cry, and she didn't blame me anymore, because she knew that it was useless to blame anyone at the moment.
"Lu Xia, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, I can't stay here." Looking at the endless flow of the road outside the door, Hu Shanshan pressed her hands on the suitcase, wabi-hun whispering.
"I can't stay here either." I said with an innocent and bitter face, but extremely resolutely. "I still have a pair of shoes at the courier station, I have to go get them."
Hu Shanshan cast a strange look at me, and looked at me coquettishly: "So, you want to leave me?" ”
"How is that possible!" I was busy explaining, trying to calm Hu Shanshan's emotions as much as possible. "If I ask you out, I will definitely send you home safe and sound, you can rest assured of this."
"It's useless to say anything now, the ID card is lost, we really have to stay and raise ducks!"
"There will be a way"
At this time, the sky in Wushi was hazy, and I seemed to see the fog on everyone's faces.
"Brother Luxia"
Suddenly, someone called me, Hu Shanshan and I looked over, and saw Wang Yuqing and Zhao Ziwu's eyes full of resentment. Wang Yuqing seemed to have just cried, and there were still tears on her face, Zhao Ziwu hugged her on the phone, but her tone was condescending and arrogant.
"Are you leaving?" Wang Yuqing asked at a loss, they may not have bought a ticket home.
"We missed the train too!" I shrugged and said. At this time, Hu Shanshan also started to call, wanting to ask if any friends who had passed by Wushi.
"I can't stay here any longer, my mom will strangle me." Wang Yuqing said and tears rolled down again, "If I don't go back today, I will die." ”
Now I am not in the mood to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and my heart is like a wild grass, and I am uneasy.
Zhao Ziwu hung up the phone and wiped Wang Yuqing's tears: "Why are you crying again?" Didn't I tell you everything, I will be able to send you home today?"
I saw that Zhao Ziwu was calm when he said this, not like he was coaxing. I asked him if there was any way.
Zhao Ziwu handed me a business card, then twisted his tie, and straightened his body proudly: "I have a subordinate in Xishui, and I just called him and promised to lend me the car." ”
After speaking, Zhao Ziwu rubbed Wang Yuqing's hair, as gentle as a cat: "Baby, don't cry, when you get to Xishui, I'll drive you back to Anshi." ”
Hu Shanshan hung up the phone when she heard this, tiptoed to look at the postcard I held in my hand, and then looked at Zhao Ziwu with a little more respect: "It turned out to be Manager Zhao, fortunately!" ”
I was also busy echoing and complimenting me a few words, and I had a little calculation in my heart.
"Oops! It's all part-time jobs, it's all the same, it's all the same....... Zhao Ziwu pressed his palm on us like a head of state, and then asked, "Eh?" Where are you going? Can I give you a ride along the way? ”
"Eh! That's great. ”
Hu Shanshan and I looked at each other, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and were busy flattering, for fear that he would regret it.
Hu Shanshan stepped forward and hugged Wang Yuqing's shoulder, complaining: "I lost my ID card, and I can't even stay in a hotel if I stay here!" If I can go to Anshi with you, I will be able to go home for a short time. ”
Wang Yuqing nodded and looked at Zhao Ziwu beside him. Later, I found out that Hu Shanshan's approach was very wise, if he said these words directly to Zhao Ziwu, he might regret and refuse, but when he said it in front of Wang Yuqing, it was as if he had nothing to do with him. Because Wang Yuqing must be going to Anshi, and Zhao Ziwu must send her to Anshi, we just hitchhiked Wang Yuqing. Moreover, Zhao Ziwu doted on Wang Yuqing, and one of her eyes was better than a basin of saliva for us.
I was relieved to see that there was a way, and said to Hu Shanshan: "When I arrive in Anshi, I am basically at the door!" You go to my house first, and then I will personally send you back to Rao City. ”
"Who's going home with you?" Hu Shanshan grabbed a sensitive word, gave me a blank look, and said. "I can go back to Anshi by myself, I don't have to worry about you."
Seeing that I was attacked by Hu Shanshan again, Wang Yuqing giggled, rubbed his little face in Zhao Ziwu's arms with tears, and said sadly: "Then let's go together, we can still talk on the way." ”
Brushing Wang Yuqing's little head, Zhao Ziwu's eyes were full of kindness, but he frowned again. "But it's still a long way from Xishui."
"You can take a taxi" I said and opened my phone to check, but when I saw the word 'Xishui', the surging blood dropped slightly: "Oh......, it's really not close!" ”
Hu Shanshan also opened the map on her phone, and her fingers deftly swiped across the screen. "It's not practical to take a taxi for such a long distance. We have to leave the city first and charter a bus from Gedian bus station to Xishui."
Zhao Ziwu was also very relieved to see that Hu Shanshan and I were so attentive, nodded and said, "You young people have a good brain, so I will listen to you." …… I'm a person who can't do anything other than make money, especially this kind of hands-on brain."
Zhao Ziwu's words and deeds reveal a kind of arrogance, I think he wears all brands, and he does have a kind of management style.
The trip was far more difficult than we thought. The closer it was to the afternoon, the more sparsely populated the streets became, and it took a long time to stop a taxi on the side of the road. Later, through the window glass, I saw that the shops along the street were hung with iron cables, and the parking spaces on both sides of the road were empty. The citizens are bustling, lonely but orderly.
Hu Shanshan still gets angry when she thinks of her bag, and she doesn't let me touch the suitcase. I got in the car and wanted to keep my distance from me, leaning against the window and looking out.
I felt a little guilty, but after calming down and thinking about it, I realized that I had really lost the bag, but it was difficult to determine whether it was lost in the duck blood shop or in the taxi. I think I might have met an immoral person and took it!
Hu Shanshan and I were speechless along the way, and we felt very uncomfortable! Seeing that the atmosphere was a little strange, I opened my mouth and asked the driver, "Master, do you know that Gedian has a car to Xishui?" ”
The driver shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, but there should be carpooling, ask for a price, and leave when it's full." ”
"Oh ......! Thank you."
"Heh, you're welcome?" The driver glanced in the rearview mirror, probably curious about my politeness.
At this time, Zhao Ziwu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also turned sideways and asked the driver, "Hey, send us to Xishui?" You make a bid! ”
The driver looked at Zhao Ziwu with a strange look, maybe he saw some clues in his dress, and shook his head with a wry smile: "This boss, it's really not about money." If you don't understand this line, we can't get out of the city. ”
