Chapter 4: Fledgling
At that moment, his heart was bleeding, he cried and ran to the well, since his sister's accident, the village sealed the wellhead with a cement slab, and he lay on the cold cement slab and cried.
The mother came, took his head into her arms, and said, "Tomorrow, I will go and borrow money and come back, so that you can go to work." ”
His mother really borrowed the money back, and he didn't dare to ask how he borrowed it.
He went to his neighbor's house to make a long-distance call to Wu Yi's factory, asked him how he took the car, and carefully recorded it with a pen.
The long-distance call was expensive, and the neighbor's face was a little ugly, and after making the call, he thanked the neighbor and put down the two yuan.
He vowed that when he earned money from his part-time job, he must install a phone at home, and when he wanted to chat with his mother, he would not have to ask others to look at other people's faces.
His mother packed his luggage overnight, and no one in the family had ever gone far away, and there was no duffel bag, only a red, white and blue zippered snakeskin bag.
When he wanted to go to the town and take a minibus to the city and then take the train to Guangzhou, he went out as soon as it was dawn, and his mother sent him to take the car, and he pedaled his bicycle to carry his mother, and his mother carried his luggage.
Tears flowed incessantly along the way, and he vowed in his heart that he must earn more money, go back to study, and let his mother live a good life, and in the future, it would be best to take her to the city to enjoy happiness and stay away from his father.
When he arrived in the town, before getting on the bus, his mother repeatedly told him to be careful all the way, and when he was about to call back to report his safety, he nodded vigorously, he also wanted to say something intimate to his mother, but he couldn't say it.
got on the bus, he sat in the back seat, his mother helped the bicycle to stand in place, the figure gradually faded away and blurred, and the tears couldn't hold back again.
When he arrived at the train station, he went to the ticket hall to buy a ticket, the train station here is not big, but there are a lot of people, there are only a few windows, there are a lot of people in line, he saw a window no one, so he walked over.
The conductor inside looked at him with a strange look and asked, "Are you a soldier?" ”
He shook his head a little ignorantly and said, "I'm 、、、 I'm not." ”
The female conductor said a little impatiently: "This is the priority window for soldiers, and it is written on it, haven't you seen it?" Let's line up at another window! ”
He looked up, and sure enough, there was the words "military first", this was his first time on the train, and he didn't understand these rules at all.
He went to line up in front of another window, bought a train ticket, and finally got on the train smoothly, and was very excited to take the train for the first time.
Thinking that he would soon be able to meet his good friend, have his first job, have an income, and be able to meet Yueqing, looking at the scenery flashing outside the window, he was excited and looking forward to it.
Arriving at Guangzhou Railway Station in the afternoon, he experienced for the first time in his life what it means to be crowded; It was the first time I saw a foreigner with my own eyes.
He wanted to go to the toilet first, but he walked out of the station as he walked with the flow of people, and the square outside the station was also full of people.
He was thirsty and hungry, but he heard Wu Yi say that the things around the train station were so expensive that he didn't dare to spend money indiscriminately, and Wu Yi also said that there were a lot of thieves here, and he didn't dare to go around.
Follow the signs to find the bus stop, and see someone selling cantaloupe on the side of the road, writing 1 yuan a piece, thinking that it can quench thirst and quench hunger, and just change change to take the bus, so I asked for a piece.
gave Zhang 5 yuan, took a bite, felt fragrant and sweet, and waited for the melon seller to find money, but the melon seller put the money in his pocket and ignored him.
He said, "Boss, look for my money!" ”
The melon seller asked rhetorically: "What kind of money are you looking for, it's just right!" ”
He said, "You wrote 1 yuan, and I gave 5 yuan." ”
The melon seller pointed to the melon and said, "That's right, it's 1 piece, and there are five bamboo sticks on it, you can count it yourself." ”
He was dumb suddenly, and the melon seller played with the knife in his hand, and asked him with a provocative expression: "What?" Still want to eat? ”
Zekuan had no choice but to admit that he was unlucky, it seems that Wu Yi missed a little, there are many liars here, no, there are many robbers.
He came to the bus stop and someone was shouting: "Change, coins, change coins." ”
He said to the man, "I want to exchange it for five dollars." ”
The man said, "Yes, five for four." ”
He was distressed, but he didn't want to go anywhere else, so he exchanged 5 yuan for 4 coins.
If you find the bus you want to take, you have to transfer to another bus to get there.
Looking at the bustling streets and high-rise buildings outside the car window, it was a scene that he couldn't even imagine before, everything was so fresh and amazing.
But his happiness was quickly replaced by internal urgency, he thought that the bus for one yuan would arrive soon, but the car stopped and stopped, and it was still far from the station where he was going to get off, and he had to take another bus to the factory where Wu Yi worked, but he was afraid that he would not be able to hold back before the bus arrived.
It is better to pee his pants on the bus of so many people, it is better to call him head-on!
He had to pray in his heart that the driver would drive faster, hoping that he could find a toilet at the next station.
Finally arrived at the station, but next to the station is the wall of a high-end residential area, where to find a toilet, if the transfer to the destination and then solve, he estimates that he can't hold back this journey, what should I do?
A motorcycle drove up in front of him, and the driver of the motorcycle asked him, "Pretty boy, where are you going?" Want to take a car? ”
He said, "No, I'm going to take the bus." Then he asked, "Hello, where is the toilet around here?" ”
The driver of the motorcycle said, "I know where it is, but it's far away, I'll take you there!" 5 bucks. ”
Just now it was only 1 yuan for taking the bus so far, and he wanted to charge 5 yuan, he was distressed and said: "5 yuan is too expensive, can it be cheaper." ”
The driver of the motorcycle said: "It's all the price here, if you are too expensive, then pull the side of the road!" If caught, you will be fined 500 yuan. ”
Zekuan had no choice but to say, "Then go!" ”
The driver of the motorcycle said, "Give the money first." ”
He paid the money, but stopped after driving less than 100 meters, and the driver of the motorcycle pointed to an alley next to the community and said, "It's inside, get off." ”
He looked at the public toilet sign at the entrance of the alley, was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Didn't you say it's quite far?" ”
The driver of the motorcycle said, "I know it's not far away, you don't know it, so it's far away, go quickly, don't pee on my seat." ”
He had no choice but to admit his bad luck again, and when he walked to the door of the toilet, a little girl about eight years old wearing a school uniform pointed to a sign on the table in front of him and said, "Pay first." ”
The sign reads: 5 cents for a fee, 1 paper towel.
I didn't expect to have to pay for a toilet in the city, he was in a hurry, but he didn't have five cents of change on his body, and said: "I'll go first, and I'll give it when I come out." ”
The little girl stared at him with wary and disgusted eyes, and said, "No. Then he opened his voice and shouted, "Mom! ”
A woman's voice came from the next hut: "What's the matter?" I do the laundry! ”
Zekuan didn't want to be mistaken for someone who went to the overlord's toilet, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll give it first." ”
I was amazed in my heart, the city is different, even children are so shrewd, hurriedly paid the money in, and sprinkled the first bubble of urine in life.
Back to the bus station, take the bus to the destination, get off the bus at the station, spend money at the commissary next to Wu Yi to call Wu Yi factory, let him come out to pick up, and then make a long-distance call to the neighbor's house, to report to his mother that he is safe, and his mother repeatedly told him to be careful about his body, go to work hard, and don't run around if he is not familiar with life.
It didn't take long for Wu Yi to come in a hurry.
