Chapter 76 Arrangements for Holidays
Lin Lin was right, He Linxi was looking at him.
"Your dad just sent me a WeChat message, saying that he was coming here for the Spring Festival, you already knew about it." He Linxi withdrew his gaze and looked at Lu Li.
As soon as Lu Li was about to answer, He Linxi rubbed his temples and said, "I was not there for a few days during the Spring Festival, you father and daughter should spend it together, I have something to do with Lin Lone, you have been with him all the time." ”
Hearing that her mother was not in an inquiring tone, Lu Li didn't plan to say anything, she shut up and looked at He Linxi and shook her head, which was a denial of her preconceived opinion.
He Linxi didn't like Lu Li's attitude towards her very much, and only felt that his dizziness and swelling were worse.
"Go back to the hotel early if you don't have anything to do, it's not safe in the town at night." After He Linxi finished speaking to Lu Li, he walked quickly towards Lin Li.
Lu Li stood still and didn't move, turned his head to see that Lin Lin had already stood up from the stool, and shouted at He Linxi with a smile.
He Linxi didn't have any expression on his face, and walked up to Lin Lin and greeted him to sit down, "I just saw you, otherwise I will look for you too, I have brought back the photographic equipment you need, and it is in the car." ”
She raised her hand and pointed behind her, "You just wait to go down to the car and find Song Hai, Song Hai!" After shouting, he turned around and saw that Lu Li was still standing in place and did not leave.
Lin Lin was also looking at Lu Li, his gaze stopped near Lu Li's stomach, and said to He Linxi: "Director He, Lu Li doesn't seem to have a good stomach, and he didn't eat anything for dinner." ”
Hearing this, the originally unhappy look on He Linxi's face suddenly faded, and she turned her head to look at Lin Lian, "Yes." ”
Lin Lin looked at He Linxi coldly, and was not surprised by her lukewarm reaction, but felt that his mood to go back to the hotel seemed to be more urgent.
"I have other things to talk to you about...... He Linxi didn't intend to end like this.
Lin Lin subconsciously went to see Lu Li again, and found that she had just turned around and left, and I didn't know if she was going back to the hotel.
——
Lin Lin sent a WeChat message to Lu Li on the way back to the hotel, but he waited until the person arrived at the door of the room, but he did not receive a reply.
He first went back to his room to find stomach medicine to help digestion, and took it to knock on Lu Li's room door, he knew that He Linxi was still in Tianle Palace and had not returned, and there should be only Lu Li himself in the room.
But no one opened the door after knocking twice in a row, so he had to whisper Lu Li's name as low as possible, followed his ear to the door of the room, and listened to the movement inside.
After a few more seconds, there was movement in the door, Lin Lin took two steps back, and the door slowly opened in front of him.
Lu Li stood in the door with sleepy eyes and looked at Lin Li, "I fell asleep, and you just came back?" ”
Lin Lin looked at Lu Li's somewhat reddened face, "Do you feel better?" Eating or not eating. As he spoke, he handed the bottle of stomach medicine he was holding in his hand to Lu Li's eyes, "This is a medicine that helps digestion." ”
Lu Li said thank you in a small voice, reached out and took the medicine bottle and looked down, "I drank the milk much better, thank you for the medicine, if you are still uncomfortable, I will take this... I'm so sleepy, if you don't have anything else to do, I'll go back to sleep. ”
Lin looked at her silently for a long time, and then smiled, "Okay, see you tomorrow." ”
"Well, good night." Lu Li seemed to be still half-asleep and half-awake, and closed the door and went back to the room with a vague answer.
Lin Lin stared at the door of the room for a few seconds before turning his head back to his room expressionlessly.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Lu Li and Lin Lin met at the elevator entrance.
Because he successfully got the required photographic equipment yesterday, Lin Lin got up early to go to Tianle Palace to start work, he didn't expect Lu Li to get up so early.
"Is your stomach better?" Lin Lin spoke first.
Lu Li smiled and nodded, "It's okay, you came out so early, are you going to Tianle Palace?" ”
Lin Lin also nodded, "Yesterday, Director He helped me get the photographic equipment I needed for copying, and I want to go over and try the equipment as soon as possible." He looked at Lu Li's still good face, "Where are you going so early?" ”
"I'm on vacation, I'm going to go to the county seat, I heard that I can catch the market today, it's the last big set before the New Year." After Lu Li finished with a smile, he took out his sunglasses and prepared to put them on.
Lin Lin looked at Lu Li's standard backpacker dress this morning, he squinted slightly, it seemed that the words He Linxi said to him later last night had begun to be put into practice.
Moreover, Lu Li seems to be quite cooperative.
"If you are a person who pays attention to safety, you can rest and have fun during the holidays." As soon as Lin Lin finished speaking, the elevator door opened with a clang, and the two walked in together.
There was no one else in the elevator, and the two stood side by side, but they didn't say anything more.
Walking out of the turnstile of the hotel, Lu Li said goodbye to Lin Lone, looked up at the sky, and walked in the direction of the bus station.
Lin Lin stared at her back for a while before walking towards Tianle Palace, and on the way, he left a message in the work group of the relocation team just added, telling the rest of the copying team that he would arrive at the Wuji Palace in fifteen minutes.
Several colleagues replied one after another on the way, Lin Lin left the WeChat group after returning a smiling expression, and just about to close WeChat, he glanced at the small red dot on the sign of the circle of friends, and he clicked into the circle of friends after a pause.
At the top is a circle of friends that just came out two minutes ago, sent by Lu Li.
- Take a vacation and go out to see the world! Hello Sunshine!
just posted such a sentence, no picture, no expression.
The corners of Lin Li's lips slowly curved, and his fingers moved closer to the place where he liked them, but when he was about to fall down at the end, his fingertips retracted again.
He quit WeChat, put his phone in his pocket, and looked up at the trees on the side of the road as he walked briskly, visually feeling that he had been falling backwards, and the tiredness of last night's insomnia began to become apparent.
He looked at the large green patches on the treetops and tried to relieve the fatigue of his eyes, but after his eyes were pricked by the early morning sun, something suddenly came to mind.
He originally planned to finish talking to Lu Li about the "hell on earth" during his lunch break today, but he went to the market on vacation today, and he vaguely felt that Lu Li seemed to have forgotten about it.
Lin Lin stopped and took a deep breath, reminding himself that it was time to change his mind. After a few seconds, he continued to walk forward, and all that was on his mind was copying work.
When Lin Lin was the first to arrive at the gate of Wuji Palace, Lu Li also got on a minibus bound for the county seat, and she asked the driver's eldest brother how long it would take to get to the county seat, and she was replied that she could get there in half an hour.
Finally filled with a carload of people, the minibus staggered out of the passenger station, Lu Li turned his head sideways out of the car window and looked aimlessly, the early morning town road was obviously more popular than usual.
It is estimated that they are all the same as themselves, going to the county seat to catch the market.
Most of the people in the car were locals from Qibao Town, speaking the local dialect that Lu Li didn't understand, and two or three children who were taken by adults shouted a few words from time to time, and they couldn't hear what they were saying.
Lu Li quite likes this noisy atmosphere, in this kind of environment, she can passively not think about it in her head, but feel calm and feel good.
She wished that feeling would last a little longer.
The minibus took half an hour to arrive at the destination on time, Lu Li followed everyone to get off the bus, and the two fellows who got off the bus together inquired about the specific location of the market, and the villagers enthusiastically asked her to go with her, and they were going to the market.
Lu Li followed them for a short time to the open-air market in the county seat, which was the place to catch the market. Lu Li took off his sunglasses, looked at the crowded scene in front of him, and took out his mobile phone for a long time before he came to his senses and took several photos of the crowd.
When she walked into the market with the flow of people, she couldn't help but whisper.
It's a whole new world! Lu Li felt that her eyes were a little insufficient, she looked at them one by one in front of various stalls, thinking that if she was really going to make a documentary recording the customs of the ancient town in the future, she would definitely come to shoot this scene of the market.
Time passed quickly in stop-and-go, and Lu Li's appetite that had disappeared for a long time finally reappeared in front of a small stall selling roasted tofu, and she asked the grandmother for a large portion of the roasted tofu, and stood by and waited after paying.
When the thinly sliced tofu turned brown on the fire, two new customers came and ordered the same large portion as the ryu grains.
Lu Li smelled the aroma of roasted tofu that stimulated her, and glanced at the two guests who were waiting to eat like her, two men wearing hats and sunglasses.
Lu Li's eyes returned to the tofu that was about to be baked, and he heard the two men begin to speak in English. Lu Li didn't pay much attention to these two people originally, but when he heard that they were communicating in English, he subconsciously listened carefully.
She didn't want to gossip about other people's privacy, but because her English was timidity in Irbin, she really wanted to use them to practice her hearing.
"Beauty, can you eat spicy? Do you want to put spicy seeds? The old grandmother who baked tofu looked up at Lu Li and asked.
"Put it, a little more!" Lu Li replied to the grandmother with a smile, I didn't expect the old man to keep pace with the times, and the title of young girls has also begun to be generic beauty.
Because of such an episode, Lu Li didn't hear what the two people next to her had just said, and when she took the fragrant roasted tofu from her grandmother, the two people began to talk again.
Lu Li lowered his head and blew cool air on the steaming roasted tofu, but his attention was actually focused on listening.
"This time, is it the woman who came to trade?" One of the two men, the taller one, was asking the other.
Out of the corner of his eye, Lu Li saw that the other person's head had been turning back and forth to look around, and when he heard his companion's question, he replied after a few seconds, "Yes, but I heard that person may also come, but we shouldn't see it." ”
Lu Li didn't know if she heard it accurately, anyway, what she heard was such a general meaning, and she felt that these two people were here to make a deal, but they didn't understand what industry it was.
Listening to their tone, it was quite mysterious. Also, the pronunciation of these two people is quite standard.
Lu Li lowered his head and took a bite of the roasted tofu, and the fragrance immediately spread in his mouth, which was really delicious. She hurriedly took a second bite when the taller man spoke again.
"Look at the people in this picture......"
Lu Li chewed the roasted tofu and turned his head to look, the tall man was holding up his mobile phone to his companion for him to see, and the faces of both of them were tense.
What a picture of them that looks like this?
After looking at it like this for a few seconds, the two men looked up at each other at the same time, and the taller one glanced at Lu Li casually.
Lu Li happened to be looking at him, and the eyes of the two strangers met at once, and Lu Li inexplicably felt that his heart was beating faster, and he wanted to avoid this person's gaze immediately.
The other party didn't seem to want to look at Lu Li anymore, and after sweeping his eyes, he returned to his companion's face and said to him, "What's his name......
It's like asking someone's name.
The companion's eyes rolled and he replied to his name, but when he spoke, a motorcycle happened to pass in front of the small stall of roasted tofu, Lu Li didn't hear clearly, only saw the tall man nodded with a gloomy face after hearing this.
Their roasted tofu was also good at this time, and the two of them didn't stand in front of the stall like Lu Li and started eating, they took the roasted tofu and left.
Lu Li looked at their backs, and all the roasted tofu in his hands was eaten.
She continued to walk back and forth in the market, and before she knew it, she walked until noon, and when she found a place to sit down and rested, she took out her mobile phone and saw the WeChat sent by her father, which was sent half an hour ago, telling her that the plane had landed and was rushing to take a bus to Qibao Town.
Lu Li was just about to reply, but her father sent another WeChat message and asked her why she didn't reply to the message, and Lu Li simply called the phone directly.
"Hey, why haven't you been replying to me, are you busy filming today?" As soon as the phone was connected, my father asked anxiously on the other end of the phone.
"No...... It's just that the phone is silent and I didn't hear it, Dad, are you in the car, are you tired? After Lu Li asked, he frowned and tried to listen to his father's voice, trying to distinguish whether there was the voice of the female friend beside him.
Dad's voice calmed down, "I'll check the ticket right away, Dad is not tired, then don't be too tired, I'll tell you when I get to Qibao Town, let's see you at the hotel in the evening." ”
"Okay, you're still on the 4:15 train, right?" Lu Li and his father confirmed the arrival time.
"Yes, that's the time if it's not too late...... The check-in has begun, so let's not talk about it. ”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Li unscrewed the water bottle to drink water, and while drinking, he watched the scene of the gradual withdrawal of stalls in the market.
She bought a ticket back to Qibao Town and returned the same way, and after arriving at the Qibao Town bus station, she went directly to the waiting room, took out her mobile phone and looked at the time, there was less than an hour left before the arrival time of her father's car.
Lu Li decided two things last night, one was to take a few days off today according to his mother's arrangement, and the other was to come to the bus station and wait to pick up his father.
She didn't tell her dad in advance, she wanted to surprise him, but also to be able to see the female friend for the first time.
Originally, she wanted to wait for her mother to go back to the hotel last night to talk to her, but she didn't know why she was sleepy like that, and she could continue to sleep after being woken up by Lin Lin knocking on the door to deliver medicine, and she slept directly in the morning when the sky was bright.
He Linxi didn't come back last night.
After Lu Li woke up, she called her mother, only to learn that she was going to stay overnight in the lounge at the relocation site, and she didn't come back after the meeting last night until more than three o'clock in the morning.
"There have been a lot of things on the relocation team recently, and we have to change our plans temporarily, can you do my mother a favor...... As I said, take two days off for the holidays. ”
Lu Li was speechless for a long time listening to the mobile phone, and he didn't know what to say to his workaholic mother, and originally wanted to answer her directly that she didn't want to take a holiday, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed back.
Also, I wanted to ask my mother if I knew that my father would be able to go to Qibao Town today, but I didn't ask. She felt that her mother should not care about it.
After being silent for half a minute, Lu Li didn't know what he thought at the time, so he calmly agreed to take a two-day holiday without even asking the reason.
He Linxi sighed softly on the other end of the phone, "Thank you, daughter." ”
Several hours have passed, and Lu Li remembered that he was inexplicably on vacation at this time, and his heart began to be uncalm, and he felt more and more weird and awkward.
The arrival announcement in the bus station suddenly sounded, it was the car that my father was sitting in that was about to enter the station, Lu Li realized that he was thinking about things, and almost an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
She walked to the exit of the station and soon saw the crowd of people approaching her.
Soon, I saw my father in the crowd, a middle-aged woman walking side by side beside him, and the two of them were chatting while walking, and they didn't notice anyone waiting for them.
