Chen Boting walked through the station and cautiously turned into an alley. Not long after, a man with a rickety figure, wearing a ragged coat and a broken straw hat also entered the alley.

The two staggered by, and Chen Boting returned to the station to get on the train and leave. When he returned to the team, he began to rummage through his drawer, looked at the ticket in his hand, and went out with the ticket.

Xu Jiuyan was also leisurely on the train, her ticket was greeted in advance by Secretary Li, and when she bought a sleeper ticket, she chose the upper berth, the main picture was clean and relatively safe.

Wandering along the way, in addition to going to the bathroom all day, I basically didn't go to the bunk, and I reversed the car twice halfway, and I put on my cotton jacket and pants. It took nearly half a month to arrive in Kyoto on the 22nd day of the lunar month.

Xu Jiuyan got off the train and saw a man and a woman standing in the most conspicuous place on the platform, holding a newspaper with Xu Jiuyan's name written on it.

The man is more delicate, and his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Chen Boting. The woman looks quite young, and she looks white and generous. The two of them twisted their faces to look at the people coming out of the train.

Xu Jiuyan walked over and said, "Hello two comrades, it's Chen Boting's family, I'm Xu Jiuyan." ”

Because of the cold weather, the girl's cheeks were red from the cold, and when she heard the voice, she turned her head to look at Xu Jiuyan, who was wearing a thick cotton coat and a post office uniform.

In fact, Xu Jiuyan wanted to wear a very foreign little Ni material coat, but for the safety of the road and the subsequent walking, he finally decided to wear a uniform, and at this time a uniform can be regarded as a symbol of status.

The girl hurriedly smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Chen Ting, this is Chen Jiting, you are Comrade Xu Jiuyan." ”

Xu Jiuyan also smiled and said: "Yes, by the way, this is something that Brother Chen brought to the family, my postman is not good at work, so I didn't send it to my home, and I trouble you to pick it up in person." ”

Chen Jiting's personality followed his appearance, and he was a little shy, and quickly took the back basket in Xu Jiuyan's hand.

Chen Ting was more cheerful, stared directly at Xu Jiuyan and said, "Haha, you are so humorous, are the postmen hard?" Isn't it hot in the south right now? ”

"No hard work, no hard work, all work for the country. Yes, the further south you go, the hotter the climate, and where we are in a tropical climate, it's summer all year round. ”

The three of them walked out while chatting, Chen Jiting followed behind the two, and the two girls exchanged information all the way.

Out of the train station, Chen Ting led Xu Jiuyan to the two bicycles, Xu Jiuyan raised his eyebrows, he is really a nobleman.

Chen Jiting cleaned up and put the backpack and Xu Jiuyan's backpack into a car and tied them up.

Xu Jiuyan didn't want to be involved with them too much, and she was helpless when she looked at Chen Jiting, she couldn't force it.

Chen Ting asked Xu Jiuyan about the east and west, and Xu Jiuyan answered what he knew.

"My eldest brother has been a soldier for so many years and hasn't told us, and he only wrote a few words, and he didn't answer anything when asked, and he died of boredom."

"Brother Chen is a soldier, he trains every day, where do I have time to watch this, I also have work reasons, I have no way, I only understand it when I walk around the streets."

"Oh, you're a month younger than me, you have a job, so I can only stay here, it's annoying, Jiuyan, you go to our house to play."

"Haha, it's okay to be idle, I don't think I'm idle, my family lives at No. 6 Campus Road, Dufu, if you're okay, you can go to play with me, I won't leave until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year."

"Yikes! Campus Road is a small western-style building area, that's good, you can't be annoying me, go, let's go quickly, I'll recognize the door. Oops, me, I don't take people on a ride. ”

"I'll take you, let's go, I'm sorry to delay you so much."

Chen Jiting glanced at Xu Jiuyan and said, "No, she doesn't know how happy she is, but she ran out today for a reason, so she was reluctant to go back." ”

"How can the fourth brother expose my shortcomings, really, go quickly in nine words."

Xu Jiuyan smiled, took his legs to the car, and motioned for Chen Ting to sit down.

Chen Ting looked at Xu Jiuyan's handsome appearance and said: "My eldest brother rides like this, hey, you dare to ride like this, I can't do it, I have to let it run before I dare to get on." ”

Xu Jiuyan is happy, this girl is a straight person, her family is well protected, and she has not experienced the test of life.

Chen Jiting said without looking at it: "You're stupid." ”

Chen Ting listened and said to him: "You can't do it, it's true, it's better than nine words." Jiuyan go quickly, ignore him. ”

Xu Jiuyan smiled, waited for Chen Ting to sit down, stared at his feet, and walked away with Chen Ting steadily, and Chen Jiting also followed.

Xu Jiuyan thought about the address Chen Boting said, walked to the fork and stopped, and said, "Let's not go by the way, you can go back, thank you so much." ”

"Oh, it's okay, the fourth brother gave me Jiuyan's bag, Jiuyan and I went to her house to help her clean up, you go home by yourself, I'll go back later."

Chen Jiting glanced at her and said, "You help people clean up?" You're a lazy person who doesn't stretch out your hand when you pour an oil bottle, and you still help people work? Don't make excuses, okay, you can't lose anything anyway, let's go together, and go home together after work. ”

"Oh, it's enough for the two of us, what are you doing with a big boy, it's really annoying."

"I'm afraid that you will go alone and cause trouble to others, I don't know you yet, okay, let's go together, multiple people can hurry up."

"Hmph, I think you're also making excuses not to go home, and you're still talking about me."

Xu Jiuyan was helpless, and took the two of them home, the family was fine, it seems that the old principal has come to take care of it.

Chen Ting looked at the surrounding houses with joy in her eyes, and Chen Jiting also looked at the surrounding environment.

Xu Jiuyan was a little emotional when she entered the house, Chen Ting wanted to say that Xu Jiuyan's house was so beautiful with a happy face, but when she saw Xu Jiuyan's expression, she immediately fell silent.

Chen Jiting looked at Xu Jiuyan, put away his things and was busy fetching water, looking for a broom and starting to work.

Xu Jiuyan cleaned up with the two, Chen Ting knew at a glance that she really didn't know how to do it, but Chen Jiting did it very skillfully and seriously.

Xu Jiuyan looked at the two who were busy working, took his backpack and went to the kitchen, cleaned up the pot, and made a fire to cook.

Because he just came back, Xu Jiuyan simply cooked a rice porridge, and took out four steamed buns while the two of them were not paying attention, and a plate of small pickles, the pickles are shredded meat fried with tender bamboo shoots, and the porridge is absolutely delicious.

Xu Jiuyan cleaned up and called Chen Ting to serve the rice, Chen Ting looked at the rice porridge and steamed buns and said, "Oh, why is it all white, this is too wasteful." ”

Xu Jiuyan smiled and said: "How can it be called a waste to eat excellent motherland flowers?" ”

"Ah, Jiuyan, you are teasing me again, you are the smallest flower."

Chen Jiting looked at the food brought in and was stunned, raised his eyes to look at Xu Jiuyan, and saw Chen Ting sitting down unceremoniously and reaching out to pull her.

Chen Ting looked at Chen Jiting blankly, Chen Jiting glanced at her and told her to leave.

Xu Jiuyan smiled, put the porridge in front of him and said: "Fourth Brother Chen, don't be polite, you are picking me up and cleaning me again, how can I let you have an empty stomach, sit down quickly, you have helped a lot today, otherwise I don't know when I will be busy alone." It stands to reason that I have to invite two people to go to the restaurant, I am sloppy, this order has passed the point of the canteen, I can only let my brothers and sisters make do with a meal, and there are no good dishes, porridge steamed buns and pickles, and so on another day, I will definitely invite my brothers and sisters to eat in a state-run restaurant. ”

"Where's the word, my eldest brother asked us to help, but I don't dare to ask for credit, this is almost busy, you can wipe the rest yourself, Xiaoting is gone!"

Chen Ting looked at Chen Jiting, then turned her head to look at Xu Jiuyan, looked down at the food on the table, and suddenly remembered something, so she quickly stood up and wanted to leave with Chen Jiting.

Xu Jiuyan pressed Chen Ting back on the stool and took a steamed bun and stuffed it into her hand.

"Fourth Brother Chen, you're welcome, sit down quickly, I'm not good to pull you, Sister Chen and I have a steamed bun each, you eat two, I cook a lot of this porridge, it's full, you sit down and eat, it's cold this day, and I don't have a fire at home, so hurry up and drink hot."

Xu Jiuyan divided the rice as he spoke, then sat down, raised his hand and grabbed Chen Ting's hand with the steamed bun and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Eat, you can't waste it, this is nourishment for the flowers of the motherland, if it is not beautiful enough, it is your fault."

Chen Ting smiled when she heard this, and peeked at Chen Jiting again, Xu Jiuyan said: "Look at what he does, he is not a steamed bun, eat it quickly, it is almost cold." ”

Chen Ting looked at Xu Jiuyan, Xu Jiuyan was drinking porridge with his head down, glanced at the steamed bun in his hand, and ate it too.

After taking a bite, her eyes lit up, and she didn't care about her fourth brother's murderous eyes, and buried her head in eating like Xu Jiuyan.

Xu Jiuyan saw that Chen Ting had eaten, and said to Chen Jiting: "Eat quickly, it's really cold and hot, waste firewood." ”

Chen Jiting was also hungry for a long time, and he was desperately resisting when he saw the two of them eating, Xu Jiuyan said this, knowing in his heart that he couldn't eat other people's food, but he couldn't bear the cry of hunger, and finally sat down and ate together.

After eating, Chen Jiting saw that the pickles on the plate were gone, and there was still a little porridge left in the clay pot, and he secretly screamed in his heart, this is really embarrassing.

Hurriedly touched his pocket, groped and took out two taels of food stamps, and stretched Chen Ting, Chen Ting also reacted, and also groped, and took out a non-staple food stamp and five cents.

Chen Jiting grabbed it, handed it to Xu Jiuyan and said, "We are in a hurry, I didn't bring so many tickets, I will send them to you tomorrow, you are tired from doing the car for so long, let's rest first." Xiaoting, let's go. ”

Xu Jiuyan felt that this child was real, so he didn't answer the ticket and said: "Okay, you go back, the family should be in a hurry after coming out for so long, you have time to play." ”

Chen Jiting saw that Xu Jiuyan didn't answer, put it directly on the table, and walked out, Xu Jiuyan grabbed the ticket and stuffed it into Chen Ting's pocket.

Chen Ting didn't comply, Xu Jiuyan held her hand and said, "Aren't you friends, how can you be so careful, can you still play happily together?" ”

"I, this,"

"What is this, I just came back today and I won't leave you, you also know my home address, you have time to play."

Chen Jiting had already gone outside, and saw that Chen Ting had not come out to call her outside.

"Let's go, don't let Fourth Brother Chen wait, walk slowly on the road, and pay attention to safety."
