Chapter 173: Different Paths
The three members of the Qin family hurried to the town's train station, searched around the station but couldn't find Yunxi, and ran to the ticket gate to ask her whereabouts.
The conductor rolled his eyes at them: "My job is to sell tickets, and I don't care who comes to this train station." Then he waved at them impatiently, "If you don't buy a ticket, go to the side, don't you see anyone waiting to buy a ticket in the back?" ”
The three members of the Qin family, who have always been domineering in front of Yunxi, were careful when they talked to people when they went out of the village, but now they were scolded by the arrogant conductor, their waists were bent by three points, and they retreated to the side resignedly.
Qin Hongfen's face was full of anger: "It must be that troublemaker who already knew that we were coming to her, so she bought a ticket early and ran away." ”
"Zhao Di ran away, so what should we do now?" Li Cuixiang's eyes began to turn red again.
Qin Shijie's face was full of impatience: "Mother, what's the use of you crying?" Hurry up and find money, find money without that troublemaker, we can also buy tickets to the army. ”
"Looking for money, where to find it?" Li Cuixiang cried directly.
Qin Hongfen and Qin Shijie glanced at each other, and they parted faces.
Half an hour later, the three finally agreed to go home and look for money.
Before dark, Yunxi and Xiao Mingzhu arrived at the county railway station, bought a train ticket with a letter of introduction, and entered the station half an hour early.
When the train departed, the Qin family at the entrance of the village set off a family war, and after listening to Aunt Yang in the corner of the wall overnight, the next day spread the news that the Qin family quarreled over Qin Jianguo's pension to the whole village.
Even Mrs. Xiao, who was staying in Nanqiu Village, heard about it, and at the dinner table, she was so surprised that she asked Captain Wang on the other side of the table: "Pension?" Qin Jianguo is dead? ”
Captain Wang also frowned when he heard this, shook his head and said: "The army only sent a telegram saying that Jianguo was injured and asked his daughter-in-law to take care of it, and the Qin family took the telegram, who knows how they saw the pension from that telegram." ”
Mrs. Xiao is the director of the Women's Federation, and she has dealt with a lot of short things in the family, and when she heard Captain Wang's words, she guessed that Qin Jianguo and his family did not have a good relationship, but no matter what, no family first thought about their son's death when they didn't get the exact news, and then tore their faces to fight for the pension.
Mrs. Xiao shook her head and sighed, quickly said goodbye to Captain Wang, and put down a pile of food stamps, Captain Wang naturally refused to accept it, you came and I went back and forth Mrs. Xiao couldn't leave the money tickets, so she gave Xiao Mingzhu the soy milk essence, canned food, dried meat, dim sum, etc., to the Wang family, and only said that they were for the children and the elderly at home.
Captain Wang didn't want to accept it, but when he saw his children swallowing saliva at the pile of things, he blushed, grabbed a can and walked out of the courtyard quickly: "Comrade Xiao, you wait first, I'll find someone to take you to the town for a ride." ”
In less than a quarter of an hour, the village stables came with a carriage, and the cart pulled by the back of the horse had been cleaned clean, without a trace of smell, and a layer of clean straw was laid on it.
It's just that as soon as the carriage arrived at the entrance of the village, it was stopped by the three of them, and Qin Shijie, who was in the lead, shouted repeatedly: "Sixth Uncle Ma, are you going to the town, take us, and we will go too." ”
The horse stable's surname is Ma, the sixth in the family, and the people in the village call him Ma Lao Liu, who will see someone in front of him who stopped him and pulled the running horse with a sigh, and opened his mouth to meet Qin Shijie's request, but suddenly remembered that Captain Wang received the canned food at home, and remembered that Captain Wang told him to put Comrade Xiao in the city first, so he turned his head to Mrs. Xiao in the car and said, "Comrade Xiao, look at ......."
The three members of the Qin family also followed Ma Laoliu's line of sight to look at Mrs. Xiao, with a flattering smile on their faces, Mrs. Xiao smiled kindly, but opened her mouth to refuse: "I'm sorry, we don't go the same way." Then he said to Ma Lao Liu, "Brother Ma Liu, let's go." ”
Madam Xiao's unexpected attitude made the smiles on the faces of the three members of the Qin family freeze, and Ma Lao Liu was also a little surprised, but he remembered Captain Wang's instructions, and immediately nodded and waved his whip to drive the pony to run.
Only then did the three members of the Qin family react, and hurriedly chased after and shouted, "Comrade Xiao, where are you going?" We'll all follow you! ”
Mrs. Xiao did not respond, and did not even reply.
Ma Lao Liu, who has an honest temperament, can also see that Comrade Xiao from this city really doesn't like the Qin family, so he immediately waved his whip and shouted at the pony to speed up and run.
Two legs must not be able to run four legs, the three of the Qin family chased for a while but chased farther and farther, had to give up, Qin Shijie spat angrily at the front: "Nothing from the city is a good thing, she obviously wants to go to the town but refuses to take us." ”
Qin Hongfen followed and scolded angrily: "Ma Lao Liu is not a thing, the women in Bajie City refuse to let us get into the carriage, wait to make him look good when we turn around!" ”
Li Cuixiang's eyes were red again: "Xiao Mingzhu and her mother refuse to take us, so we can't borrow money from her, what should we do with the train ticket?" ”
The scolding brothers and sisters of the Qin family stopped, and they all ran home, trying to get the money out of the old lady Qin first, and the Qin family's new house was naturally another quarrel.
Mrs. Xiao didn't know that she had saved a trouble by preventing the Qin family from getting into the carriage, but her mood was happy, although she missed it with her daughter, it was a good thing that her daughter was willing to go home, and the next thing she had to do was to persuade Qin Jianguo's little daughter-in-law to stay in the city, so that her daughter could see a doctor.
However, if Qin Jianguo really sacrificed, his little daughter-in-law was afraid that he would not be able to stay.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but worry, and couldn't wait for the direct train in the evening, but bought a transfer ticket, but it could leave in the morning.
Xiao Mingzhu didn't know that her mother was in a hurry to return to the army than her, and she was taking Yunxi to sit in the No. 8 carriage that served as a restaurant, and ordered with great interest: "Braised pork, pig's trotters, duck in sauce, shortbread, and mung bean cake are all served to me." ”
The waiter with the white hat was stunned for a moment, and shook his head under Xiao Mingzhu's stunned gaze: "None of these." ”
Xiao Mingzhu let out an "ah", his face full of disappointment: "None of them?" I've eaten on the train before. ”
The waiter shook his head regretfully: "What the restaurant has to look at the ingredients served before departure, you were lucky to be able to eat it before." ”
"And what's in your restaurant today?"
"Stir-fried rape, stir-fried cabbage, stir-fried potatoes, tiger skin and green peppers......"
Before the waiter finished reporting, Xiao Mingzhu lay on the table, holding her chin with her hands and said pitifully: "I've been eating vegetarian for two weeks, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat dishes." ”
The waiter was amused by her appearance and nodded, "There is a palace fried chicken with meat in it." ”
Xiao Mingzhu slipped up and said, "I want this!" Turning his head to Yunxi happily, he said, "I told you that you will definitely be able to eat meat on the train, and I invite you to eat meat." ”
