Lin Tong combed two braids, wore new clothes made before the Chinese New Year, carried a sack behind his back, carried a large flower bag with torn clothes in his left hand, and also carried a crossbody bag made of rags made by himself, and led Xu Nian in his right hand, living the image of a female migrant worker working in the city.

She finally led her son onto the train, opened the window, and waved her hand to Lin Jianguo and his wife below, "Second brother and sister-in-law, go back quickly!" Tell my mom and my mother-in-law, and we're leaving. ”

Luo Fengzhi's eyes were a little red, and he didn't know when he would be able to meet when he left.

"Be careful on the road and watch the child. Send a telegram to complain, don't worry the big guy. ”

The train started slowly, and Lin Tong hurriedly shouted: "Don't worry, go back!" ”

Watching the figures of the second brother and sister-in-law gradually disappear, Lin Tong's eyes were a little red, although they didn't get along for a long time, she could still feel the warmth between her relatives.

"Mom, don't cry, we'll see Dad soon, aren't you happy?" Xu Nian tilted her head and stretched out her little arm to wipe her tears.

Lin Tong smiled happily, bent down and touched his son, "Happy, mother is very happy." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and took his little hand, "Let's go, find our seats." ”

There were a lot of people on the car, Lin Tong and the child finally found a seat, a middle-aged man saw that someone came with a seat number, and gave her a seat, Lin Tong put Xu Nian on the seat, and then stuffed the sack and flower bag under the seat.

Thankfully, no one was sleeping under the seats.

After putting away the luggage, Lin Tong hugged the child in the middle and sat down by himself.

The first time he took the train, Xu Nian was very curious, opened his eyes and looked east and west, pointed to the receding forests outside and the mountains in the distance and shouted, "Mom, look." ”

Lin Tong touched his head, "The train is moving forward, so the trees we see are all retreating, just like the trees we pass by when we walk." ”

Xu Nian nodded as if he didn't understand, he was small and had a hard time watching, so he simply stood up, bent over the small table and went outside to look.

From time to time, he pointed outside, "Mom, look, the train is smoking." ”

"Mom, listen, boom!" His smiling eyes narrowed into slits as he learned the sound of the train.

A couple of about fifty years old sitting opposite looked at Xu Nian very cute, teased him a few words, and said to Lin Tong: "This child of yours is really rare, how old is it?" ”

Lin Tong smiled and bowed his head, "Xiao Nian, how old is grandma asking?" ”

Xu Nian stretched out his finger, "Six years old." ”

"Yo, who taught this? Pretty smart enough to know that this is six. The aunt smiled, glanced at Lin Tong, and felt a little pity in her heart, if this is put on the children in the city, so smart, teach it well, it will definitely not be wrong in the future.

How can Lin Tong know her thoughts, hearing others praise Xu Nian, she is still honored, looking at the child and smiling.

Xu Nian was embarrassed to be praised, and turned his head into Lin Tong's arms.

The child was embarrassed to be embarrassed, and wanted to show that he had a very powerful mother, and then turned around and said very seriously and proudly: "My mother taught me." ”

"Yes!" The aunt didn't care, teased Xu Nian a few more words, closed her eyes and rested.

Lin Tong also asked in a low voice, "Are you sleepy?" Mom hugged you to sleep for a while? ”

Xu Nian's excitement hadn't passed, he shook his head, stood at the small table and looked outside for a while, and then ran to the aisle to look over there, very happy.

Lin Tong told him, "Don't run around, there are bad people who will carry you away, and then you will never see your mother again, let alone your father and grandmother." ”

Xu Nian leaned on her in fright, tilted his head and deliberately squeezed his eyes, "Xiao Nian is obedient, don't run around, there are bad people who come to let Dad beat him away." ”

The man standing next to him laughed: "Your father is quite good, isn't he?" ”

Xu Nian raised his head, and was a little proud, "Of course, my father is the company commander." ”

There are still some little entanglements in my heart, my mother and father are powerful, so who is more powerful?

The man was a little surprised when he heard this, and looked at the two of them, "Big sister, where do you want the child to go?" ”

Before Lin Tong could answer, Xu Nian hurriedly said, "Let's go find Dad." ”

The aunt on the other side also heard it, opened her eyes and asked, "Yo, your father is still a soldier!" He asked Lin Tong again: "Are you going to visit relatives?" ”

Lin Tong smiled and nodded, "Go with the army." ”

The aunt obviously understood, and was a little surprised, and said with a sigh: "With the army? Isn't it above the deputy battalion commander to be allowed to join the army? Is it okay for your family to be a company commander? ”

Lin Tong was stunned for a moment, in the era she lived in, the company commander was okay.

But at the beginning, Xu Zhenhua also said that the deputy battalion commander could accompany the army.

But then he said it was done, and she didn't care. Now that she thinks about it, there must be something she doesn't know.

Perhaps, he may be promoted.

She said vaguely: "He used to be a company commander. ”

The aunt sighed, "I said! ”

At this time, there is no fast or slow train on the train, like this kind of inter-provincial long-distance train, it also stops when it sees the station, and there are many people up and down along the way.

At five or six o'clock in the afternoon, it was getting dark outside, and the lights were on in the carriage.

Xu Nian looked at it in surprise, "Mom, it's so bright!" It's amazing! ”

The aunt on the other side showed a hint of superiority and sympathy in her eyes.

I feel that this kid has never even seen a lamp, which is very pitiful.

Lin Tong picked him up, "This is an electric light." Grandma's house will also have electricity this year, and it will be bright like this when the time comes. ”

At this time, those who are on a long journey take out the dinner they have brought.

Lin Tong's bag contained pancakes and boiled eggs brought by her second sister-in-law, as well as sweet potato cakes.

The aunt opposite Lin Tong took out an aluminum lunch box containing pickles, eggs and a small piece of meatloaf, and touched the man next to him who had been reading a book and had not spoken, "Don't look at it, let's eat!" ”

The man put down the book, the woman handed over a plaid handkerchief, he wiped it, the woman handed over another piece of meatloaf, the man took it and took a bite, and when he looked down and saw Xu Nian staring at him, he frowned, reached out and broke a piece of meatloaf, and handed it over, "Give!" ”

Xu Nian turned his head to look at his mother, Lin Tong touched his head with a smile, and said to the man, "Thank you, comrade, no need, we brought something to eat." ”

Bow your head and coax the child softly, "Are you hungry?" Is it okay for mom to give you tea eggs? The tea eggs boiled by the second aunt are delicious! ”

Xu Nian nodded sensibly, and turned his head to look at the man—the meatloaf in his hand.

Lin Tong held his head with both hands and let him face him, bowed his head and pressed his forehead against his forehead, "Xiao Nian, when others are eating, it is impossible to stare at others!" ”

Xu Nian blinked his confused eyes, and Lin Tong smiled a little helplessly, "You always look at people like this, that grandfather will be embarrassed to eat." ”

Xu Nian nodded as if he didn't understand, turned around and said loudly: "Grandpa, I don't look at you anymore, you can eat, don't be embarrassed!" ”

Lin Tong: "......"

Man: "......"

"Give it to the child, it's not valuable, just a little food." The man looked at Lin Tong with a bit of appreciation in his eyes.

"No, no, thank you, no need." Lin Tong still refused, not because she didn't know what to do, but because she didn't want to instill this kind of idea of taking advantage of her children.

Everyone's life is not so easy.

Seeing her refuse, the man took his hand back and said nothing more.

Lin Tong lowered her head and took out the cloth bag, which was all brought by the second sister-in-law, she took out the tea, eggs and sweet potato cakes, tied the bag tightly, and stuffed it under the seat.

As she was doing this, a boy of eight or nine years old came running from the seat behind her, pointed to the meatloaf in the man's hand and shouted, "I want to eat!" ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and the hand that had been brought to his mouth paused.

The boy exclaimed, "Give it to me!" He doesn't eat and I eat! ”

It turned out that the scene just now was seen by this boy.

Seeing that he was running to ask for food, the man was a little displeased, and his eyes moved to the boy's seat.

I don't know who the boy came out with, but the parents didn't come out, and no one spoke.

The man hesitated, and the boy cried loudly, "I'm going to eat meatloaf...... I want to eat meat......"

Many people saw that the man was a little embarrassed, so he had to give the patty to the boy.

The boy took the meatloaf and laughed, and the snot was dripping to his mouth, and he didn't wipe it, and he didn't even say thank you, but stuffed it into his mouth.

Voracious.

Eat it, and looked at Xu Nian proudly, as if he was showing off that he had meatloaf to eat.

The middle-aged couple frowned.

Xu Nian glanced at him, then stopped looking, and looked away.

Mom said he wouldn't be embarrassed if he couldn't stare at someone else eating!

And Lin Tong sat down, took out a handkerchief first, and wiped the child's hands.

This action made the aunt praise.

I didn't expect such a rural woman to have a handkerchief, and she knows how to be clean!

The next scene made the middle-aged couple even more impressed by Lin Tong.

I saw that after Lin Tong handed the child a piece of sweet potato cake, he took out a piece of waste paper full of words from his bag and put it on his lap, and put the peeled egg skin on the paper.

After the boy finished eating the meatloaf, his eyes were fixed on the egg in Lin Tong's hand again, "I want to eat eggs." ”

It's not a human being, just staring straight at it, muttering over and over again, "I want to eat eggs." ”

Lin Tong ignored him, and with the current living conditions, eggs are not so easy to eat.

She has been in this era for a few months, and she has not eaten it a few times. The eggs she brought were reserved for Xu Ji to eat, and she was reluctant to eat one herself.

She didn't like it in her heart to be so justifiably to eat.

After peeling the egg skin, she slowly fed Xu Nian a mouthful, and looked at her son with a smile on her face.

Xu Nian stuffed a mouthful of sweet potato cake into her mouth, "Mom eats eggs, the tea eggs of the second uncle's house are so delicious!" ”

Seeing that the two of them were ignoring him, the boy leaned forward and shouted, "Give me eggs, I want to eat them." "As he spoke, he had already started to grab it.

Lin Tong was very angry, how could there be such a thing, if you don't give it, you will rob it, the child is not young, he has to be eight or nine years old, and he is better dressed than Xu Nian!

She unceremoniously took her hand away.

The boy didn't grab it, he was very angry, and he reached out to hit Xu Nian, but Lin Tong held his hand.

The passengers next to him shook their heads and talked about it.

The boy's parents didn't care about the child as if they hadn't heard.

Lin Tong was not used to him, so he stood up and turned to the woman in the seat behind him and said loudly, "Who belongs to this child?" Hurry up and get it back! Why are you so justifiable to ask someone what they want to eat? ”

A woman in her thirties stood up at this time, probably feeling ashamed, and shouted at the boy, "Why don't you come back quickly?" What a shame! ”

The boy reluctantly walked back, and the woman slapped him on the back and scolded: "Shameful things, if they don't give it to you, you should come back quickly, you have to make people laugh!" ”

Lin Tong was so happy, being a mother like this really made her insightful!

She ignored the mother and son, turned around and sat down, and taught her son loudly, "Xiao Nian, we can't do this in the future!" It's shameful enough to ask others what they want to eat and be so arrogant, and if people don't give it and grab it, what's the difference between this and robbers and beggars? Mom will tell you a story, about a gentleman who doesn't eat the food that comes with it......"

The mother listened to Lin Tong's words with some contempt, looked at the contemptuous or disdainful eyes of the people next to her, and couldn't sit still, and pressed the child to the seat, "Don't go, mother's face will be lost to you." ”

The middle-aged couple opposite had completely changed their views of Lin Tong at this time, and they were even wondering, is this a knowledgeable youth from the countryside in the city?

Xu Nian ate an egg and a sweet potato cake and was full, so Lin Tong ate two pancakes with boiling water and pickles.

It was getting late and late, many short-distance people got off the car, and there were not many people in the car, Lin Tong hugged Xu Nian and coaxed him: "Sleep!" When we wake up, we'll be there, and we'll be able to see Dad. ”

Xu Nian yawned and fell asleep in her arms.

I don't know what station I got to, but the middle-aged couple also got off the bus.

Lin Tong also closed his eyes, and he was confused for a while.

Sitting on the train, I can't sleep well, I will open my eyes for a while, and then close my eyes and squint for a while.

When she woke up again, she was shouted by the conductor's loud voice, "Baicheng is coming, it's the end, wake up quickly, it's time to get off the station, it's time to get off the train, the end has arrived!" ”

Lin Tong hurriedly woke up the child, Xu Nian was still confused, and arched his head into her arms, "Mom, I want to sleep!" ”

"Good baby, let's get to the station, we can't sleep anymore, or we'll have to sleep over."

Finally coaxed the child to wake up, although the end of March was not as cold as winter, but the weather was still very cold in the early morning, she dressed the child, then took out the luggage, as when she came, carrying a sack, carrying a bag, holding the child's hand, and getting off the car along the flow of people.

After getting off the train and leaving the station, I went to the ticket office to buy a ticket.

The place she was going to had never heard of before, and she estimated that it was on the Mongolian side of her previous life.

The train was still noon, and they were going to spend the morning here in White City.

This Bai Cheng is not the one she knew in her previous life.

It's a nice day, so you can't spend hours in the waiting room!

At this time, the waiting room was dirty and smelled bad, and she didn't think the luggage was heavy, so she simply took the child to go outside.

The luggage was too heavy to go too far, so the two sat on the side of the road and bought a bowl of wontons for Xu Nian, she drank the soup with pancakes and sweet potato cakes, and the two of them had a relatively hearty breakfast.

The supply and marketing cooperatives were visited, this supply and marketing cooperatives were not the kind of shops in their town, they were very big, Lin Tong had nothing to do anyway, and he took his children to visit very carefully. Jiukan Chinese network debut

But she didn't have the money to buy it, even if she had money, she didn't have a ticket.

When she came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, she saw a Xinhua bookstore not far away, her eyes lit up, "Go baby, mom will take you to the bookstore." ”
