The three-day and three-night train, even if it is a soft sleeper, makes everyone tired enough.

"Dad, buy a plane ticket when you go back, the train is too long."

"It's okay, you can also take the train to see the surrounding scenery, we don't see the Yellow River, but also see the Jiayuguan of the Great Wall, all the way, the scenery gradually changes, and the Great Gobi, this is the fun of taking the train."

In his previous life, Anxia had only been to Xijiang only two or three times, and each time he was on a business trip, so all of them were planes, although the train was tired, but it was not fun, and there was a feeling of playing while walking.

The train passed through Henan, she bought the roast chicken at the crossing, passed through Xi'an she bought the cold skin and meat sandwich bun, passed through Gansu she bought the fragrant bean pot helmet, although she did not get off the train, but the special food tasted one by one, quite a train to eat a few cities of affordability.

When they arrived at Urumqi South Railway Station, everyone got off the train and felt an exotic atmosphere coming to their faces, Xiao Ran looked around, Xiao Jingsheng whispered to his wife, here is like going abroad, there are many ethnic minorities around, and they look like foreigners.

Huo Jingshu stared at the Uyghur child, her eyes were full of love, "Jingsheng, look, a doll-like Guli." ”

An Xia followed her mother's gaze and saw a little girl in front of her with light brown hair with curly skin, fair skin, wearing a short skirt of colorful striped cloth unique to the Uyghurs, big and double, eyelashes and two small brushes, her eyes blinked, just like foreign dolls sold in department stores, deep and sunken big eyes, which were essentially different from Han people, and the white eyes were even faintly light blue.

"It's so cute."

Xiao Jingsheng nodded, more than ten years later, Western Xinjiang has changed too much, everywhere is fresh and interesting, all eyes are full of exotic customs, customs and customs are different from the mainland, and various languages converge, which is dazzling.

There was a person holding a big sign outside the door, which read, Pick up Xiao Jingsheng and Huo Jingshu.

Xiao Jingsheng saw the person in front of him and stepped forward excitedly, "Brother Zhai! ”

"Respect for life!"

The two middle-aged men hugged each other tightly, and Huo Jingshu looked at it on the side, her eyes moist.

"My brother and sister haven't changed at all, and they're still so beautiful."

"Brother Zhai, it's been more than ten years, and I'm old."

After speaking, Huo Jingshu introduced An Xia and Xiao Ran to Zhai Tianming, and introduced An Xia to the middle-aged man in front of him, he was Xiao Jingsheng's college classmate, the two were roommates with different majors in the same dormitory, and they were also one of the most powerful friends.

At that time, they were sent to Western Xinjiang for labor reform, at that time, there was a shortage of materials, and they couldn't eat enough, all of which were taken care of by Zhai Tianming, so that the two of them survived those difficult years, especially Huo Jingshu, who had to be raised at home since she was a child, and she didn't suffer at all.

"Uncle Zhai." An Xia and Xiao Ran shouted in unison.

"Hey, good boy." Zhai Tianming couldn't close his mouth with joy, he looked at An Xia in front of him carefully, he knew about An Xia and Xiao Ran, the little girl in front of him was the biological daughter of the old classmate, this child was not ordinary at first glance, like a good mutton fat jade, full of aura.

"Let's go, go home, your sister-in-law has made a table of good dishes, I guess I'm in a hurry."

The group got into a taxi and arrived at Zhai Tianming's house, as soon as the door opened, Feng Yuhua greeted him warmly and hugged Huo Jingshu, "Brother and sister, I haven't seen you for many years, I really miss you!" You're still the same as before, slim and beautiful, how don't you look old all these years. ”

"Sister-in-law." Huo Jingshu hugged the plump woman in front of her and shed tears.

The two women cried for a long time, Zhai Tianming washed the hot towel, the two wiped away their tears, and laughed again.

"Quietly, call someone."

"Uncle Xiao, Aunt Huo."

Huo Jingshu hurriedly opened the box and took out the gifts she brought to Zhai Tianming's family, including a maple leaf red long tweed coat for Jingjing, as well as two French dresses, both of which were dignified styles.

"Jingjing, when you were young, you liked to play with me the most, do you remember?"

Zhai Jing was a little shy, "Thank you, Auntie, I still remember when I was young, you came to Uncle Xiao once." ”

"yes, fifteen years have passed."

"Jingsheng, this is your fault, you haven't come to see me for so many years."

Xiao Jingsheng smiled bitterly: "I was too busy with work at that time, let alone look at you, I didn't even have the time to go home to see my daughter-in-law." Besides, Brother Zhai, why don't you know that you go to the imperial capital with your sister-in-law and children to play, look at me! ”

"Hey, there's no way, when I was young, I ran in the field every day, that is, when I got old a few years ago, the Bureau of Geology and Mining transferred me back and stopped going out in the wild, but there are a lot of things, and I am also busy all day long, I always want to go out and go around, and I can't spare time."

"Brother Zhai, you are now in exactly the same state as I was last year, can you let go of the work at hand? You go out in the field all year round, now it's easy not to travel, you should find a position that is not busy, accompany your family, the unit is less and everyone is the same, you see I am now in logistics, not only can I get off work on time every day, I can also ask for annual leave to take my wife and children out to play, I owe my family too much, and my focus is now on life. ”

Zhai Tianming smiled, "It's not that I think about it, I can do more if I can do more, Mr. Lu, the leader of our address industry, is over seventy years old this year, and he still reads literature and participates in academic conferences every day, and people are the ones who really contribute to the old age." ”

Xiao Jingsheng glanced at his daughter, An Xia blushed slightly and lowered her head.

Zhai Tianming felt strange, "What's wrong?" Where am I not right? ”

"Mr. Lu is indeed admirable, his professional information fills several rooms, I heard that there is another room in the imperial capital, filled with all kinds of stones, if you have the opportunity in the future, I will take you to visit his old man's house when you go to the imperial capital."

This time it was Zhai Tianming's turn to be shocked, "Do you know Lu Lao?" He has been living in Wu City, why is he in the imperial capital? ”

"Lu Lao returned to the imperial capital last year, and my daughter and Lu Lao's eldest grandson are in a relationship with each other, so they often move around."

"Really? Then I must go to the Imperial Capital, I want to meet the legends of our address world. ”

Everyone was talking happily, Feng Yuhua suddenly smiled and said: "Look at me, patronizing and reminiscing, I forgot that you haven't eaten yet, let's go and eat, I've fried all the dishes." ”

After speaking, everyone came to the restaurant, and the dishes on the table were all filled with oversized plates, Xiao Ran secretly sighed, I thought that the dishes and dishes in the north were quite large, but when I came to Xinjiang, I found that the plates were bigger than the basins.

"A large plate of chicken, beef stew, this is a stewed mutton, I'll go add soup to you."

Feng Yuhua went to the kitchen to get busy, and Huo Jingshu also hurried in to help, and after a while, everyone in front of each of them had a bowl of stewed mutton soup sprinkled with coriander.
