Chapter 27 Xinsu County

Shen Weiguo parked at the parking lot at the commune crossing, supported the car and asked Wen Juan to get down properly and move his legs and feet first, while he pushed the car to tie and lock the car, and received the thumb wooden pair card given by the car watcher. This is a place dedicated to watching the car, belonging to the semi-public and semi-private, safe and secure, but a dime at a time, the average person is not willing to spend money, most would rather leave a child or adult to watch the car in person, can push the cart, cross the ox cart carriage place will never let go, keep these properties out of sight. Most of these places provide convenience for people who want to enter the county town and have to properly arrange the means of transportation when they come.

After settling the car, Shen Weiguo put the pair of cards in his pocket and put them away, and he took Wen Juan along the main road of the commune, all the way to the bus station next to the commune office in the middle of the commune town, and got on the only bus in Hongqi Commune town to the city.

I don't know which city is the eliminated classic car, the bus is worn, but it is the most convenient tool for the town to go to the county, but the appearance is very clean, enough to see the driver's love for it. Wen Juan used to go to school in the county seat, and she didn't travel between the two places very often, so she was no stranger to this car. It's just that there is no harm if there is no comparison, I didn't think there was anything in this car before, and after the memory of later generations was fused and compared, I found that this car was old, and only the exhibition of those old antiques in the memory of later generations may not be able to see.

The car was already half full, and Shen Weiguo bought tickets for the two of them, a ticket of three cents per person. There is an old man with chickens and ducks in front, and the smell is elegant, but fortunately it is winter, and it is not so unbearable. After buying tickets, the two of them walked to the empty seats in the back, and Shen Weiguo quickly opened his coat and spread it on the innermost position before letting Wen Juan sit down.

The time they came was okay, and it was estimated that there would be about half an hour for the car to start traveling, and the car was mostly full, and there were basically not many people who needed to go to the city at this time. The waiting time is boring, and at this time, it is not recommended to the future generations to directly take things to the car, at this time, if a private person sells something, it is called speculation, Shen Weiguo has the intention to show that he wants to buy some snacks for Wen Juan, and there is no chance, the Red Star Commune is located in the middle of nowhere, and basically good things can't be here.

The car starts, travels with bumps, at this time there is no serious asphalt road cement road or anything, all of them have done some hardening, because there are often some Lhasa trucks, the road to the county is not too flat, the big pits and small potholes can be said to be continuous, and there are few smooth drives.

And at this time, the car, is not to say to the bus in the future to stop at the station, most of them are nearby, need to take the car to the side of the road where the car passes, see the car to beckon, notice the driver can slowly stop, let people come up, one did not pay attention, the driver only saw the person in front of the approach, that is called an emergency stop, so that the people in the car can not sit unstable and almost have to turn over the rhythm of the horse.

When it is bumpy, the amplitude of the back seat is extraordinarily large, and even if the person who shakes is not motion sickness, it is not very comfortable. In the first big bump, even if Wen Juan grabbed the window of the saddle, she didn't stabilize her body, and almost fell off the seat and knocked to the front seat, Shen Weiguo began to pay attention to Wen Juan's situation, every bump, he paid attention to Wen Juan's situation, and helped her in time when she was shaking.

Silently moving, warm and silent, really intimate. The closer the car is to the county seat, the better the conditions of the people nearby, and the more people get on the bus and enter the city. When the seats on the car were full and there were still a lot of people standing, another pair of old people got on the bus, and when the other people in the car could occupy a place and no one wanted to get up and was indifferent, Shen Weiguo and Wen Juan took the initiative to get up and gave up their positions to the two old men.

The armrests are raised, and it is not comfortable to keep lifting the hand. Shen Weiguo didn't feel much of it himself, but he was worried that Wen Juan would be uncomfortable, so he silently let Wen Juan grab the hem of his clothes and arms and fix his body. Fortunately, it is close to the county seat, and the road is much smoother. Lhasha's cart was detouring from a nearby town and would not be heading into the county seat.

One or two bumps, with Shen Weiguo's timely care, Wen Juan stood firm very well... Along the way, although the two did not have much communication, they also had their own warm flow. In such a process, the car drove into the Xinsu County bus station. The bus station in Xinsu County is next street to the county government, Xinsu County is not too big, several main streets are vertical and horizontal, and it is only a circle or two larger than the commune, after all, it is only a remote county of Yima City.

However, in the end, it is the county seat, and from the perspective of the road along the way, the streets and houses are also quite regular, and there are three or four-story buildings that cannot be seen in the village commune. For example, at this time, some passengers who got off the bus, when they got out of the bus station and saw pedestrians dressed decently and cleanly on the side of the road, riding bicycles, and a small car passing by, their eyes were full of surprise and envy, and a faint discussion sounded, and a faint atmosphere of simplicity permeated.

As the flow of people out of the bus station, Shen Weiguo and Wen Juan, looked up and looked down, and the smile flowed, but there was no sense of ridicule. When they first entered the city, they were also surprised, compared to the messy and poor in the village, the neat and clean county town with some comfortable atmosphere is indeed quite desirable, and it is no more than that many people sharpen their heads and want to squeeze into the city, wanting to become the people in the city with food.

For the county seat, it can be said that neither of them is particularly unfamiliar with it, nor is it particularly familiar. Shen Weiguo's memory is only the memory of two trips before enlistment, and the latest memory is the update of the bus station to home. Although Wen Juan has been studying in the county for a few years, at that time, she had the opportunity to go out of the house to study, and studying hard is all the task. For the memory of the county seat, it is a small number of people in the village who carried something out and swept it away, or the classmates said it in the mouth of a show-off.

But fortunately, both of them almost remember that the department store in the county seat and the nearby market are in the block west of the government building, and they have not changed for so many years. The two of them didn't hesitate much, and walked towards that side with the majority of the crowd.

Along the way, whether it is crossing the street or others, Shen Weiguo always looks at the six roads and listens to all directions, even if he helps Wen Juan avoid the collision of people and the passing of bicycles, it has aroused the envy of many young girls who came to the county in a hurry to visit and the two of them are almost the same as the goodwill smiles of the people who came over. In such an atmosphere, the two crossed a street to reach the destination of the trip.

West Street in Xinsu County, which is the gathering place of department stores, is also the most lively place in Xinsu County as a whole. Before he arrived nearby, he could hear the noise and excitement here from a distance, and when he came closer, Wen Juan was a little surprised by the excitement here. I saw that there was a sea of people, and the closer I got, the more people squeezed into the door that was not too big, but it was also a three-story building that could be counted in the county seat.

Generally speaking, this situation, even in later generations, is difficult to see in supermarkets during the most lively Chinese New Year. However, judging from the current situation, in addition to the things that are really needed to buy, the people who come here are really just to take a look, see and see, and take a stroll to open their eyes.

At this time, not to mention that it is rare for people in the village to see money tickets all year round, there is no channel for money, it is rare for a family to have one or two hundred spare money, and in the past two years, they can mix water and fill their stomachs, eat meat during the New Year, and tear two feet of cloth to make clothes, which are all countable people.

And the people in the county, although they eat the supply of grain in the eyes of the people in the village, they all have imperial grain to eat, and they also have salaries, and those who guarantee the harvest in drought and flood are not very rich, and the rations for a month are all rationed, and the places where they live are restricted, and it is not uncommon for the family to have seven or eight people crammed into one room. If there are few people working in the family, it is worse than the people in the village.

I can't say who is right and who is wrong, I can only say that it is the limitation of the times. However, at the end of the year, it is always the happiest time, and it is also the time when the family has the most money, even if the stingy people are, they will cut a piece of meat and wipe the bottom of the pot, pass the oil and water, wrap dumplings, and have a lively New Year, giving a good start to the coming year.

At the end of the year, all the factories in the county, except for those on duty and the public security, were basically all on vacation. When I have time, I have a little spare money in my pocket, and there are more people who come to the West Street Department Store to shop, even if I don't buy anything, I am happy to take a look, and I am really happy to save money for a year, and finally decide to buy something for myself or my family and people in need in the village, it is not uncommon for the department store to have such a flow of people, and it can be said that it is the most complete place in the nearby counties and cities.
