Chapter 60: I Can't Help You
Lu Yueping glanced at her, and his expression didn't seem to be too surprised that Xu Bai would appear on this train to Harbin City, even if there was a little accident, it was also an accident that the sleeper he bought would be just opposite Xu Bai.
"We're quite fated." Lu Yueping put his hand in his trouser pocket and opened his mouth to Xu Bai first.
Xu Bai ignored it, sat on the narrow bunk, took out his mobile phone and blindly looked at the posts pushed.
At this time, the sweet female voice fell into Xu Bai's ears.
"Read Ping."
As soon as she looked up, a rustic-dressed woman also appeared in the aisle in front of her.
The person who came had long hair and waist, big chest and round hips, and his facial features were not outstanding, but they were not ugly.
She held a box of cherry tomatoes sealed with plastic wrap in her hand, and her eyes drifted towards Xu Bai before falling on Lu Yueping's face.
"Got it." She handed the small box of fruit to Lu Yueping, then poured the snacks in the handbag on the bed above Lu Yueping, found a box of chocolate bar biscuits, opened the bag, took out one with her left hand, grinded it on her snow-white teeth, and put her right hand on Lu Yueping's strong and broad shoulders casually and naturally.
Xu Bai thought to himself, what indescribable relationship does this woman have with Lu Yueping, otherwise she would not be so close.
However, who Lu Yueping is good with has nothing to do with Xu Bai.
She took off her shoes and sat down at the head of the bed, as quiet as air.
But at this moment, Lu Yueping removed the layer of plastic wrap on the outside of the cherry tomatoes, and dragged the bottom of the box to stretch out his unusually strong arm to Xu Bai.
He raised his slightly rough voice and said to Xu Bai, "Taste one." ”
Xu Bai glanced at him, didn't say anything, and didn't reach out to get the fruit, but quickly turned his head and continued to look down at his phone.
Lu Yueping had no choice but to take his arm back.
"Yueping, who is she?" The woman asked.
Lu Yueping squinted his eyes and said, "Acquaintance." ”
When Xu Bai heard this, his mouth lifted: "I'm not familiar with him." ”
Lu Yueping's plain eyes that could not be concealed stared at Xu Bai, and the corners of his mouth were also very angry.
He threw a cherry tomato into his mouth, and after a few clicks, the juice filled his mouth.
The woman felt a little weird, but she was honest, so she didn't dare to ask anything.
However, Lu Yueping did not hesitate to continue to tease Xu Bai in front of his new girlfriend.
"Hey, little white rabbit, aren't you curious what I'm doing in Heilongjiang?"
White Rabbit?
Xu Bai frowned, looked at Lu Yueping and said, "You said that you are from Heilongjiang, and there is an old mother in your hometown, it's not unusual for you to go back to your hometown, right?" ”
Lu Yueping smiled and didn't say anything, let alone ask Xu Bai what he was doing in Harbin City.
It was noon, and the conductor came to sell lunch with a dining car.
A quick snack is twenty dollars.
Xu Bai asked for one, but the wallet was placed in the suitcase and forgot to take it out for a while, and in the process of flipping through the bag, Lu Yueping took out a red ticket from his pocket and said hoarsely: "Two more copies, no need to look for it." ”
Xu Bai chuckled in his heart.
She took out her wallet, handed 20 yuan to Lu Yueping and said, "The money will be returned to you." ”
Lu Yueping's handsome face was horizontal: "What, do you think I can't afford to invite you to a fast food?" Take it and eat it, don't give it to me. ”
"I know you can afford it." Xu Bai glared at him, and seeing that he didn't plan to accept it, he simply stuffed the money into the hands of the woman next to Lu Yueping.
Xu Bai looked at her as honest and honest, she must not be a messy woman.
I wanted to admonish her, Lu Yueping is not a good person, but after thinking about it again, this is someone else's life and choice, so the words stuck in his throat were finally swallowed back.
After lunch, the woman and Lu Yueping were tired of the lower bunk.
He sat cross-legged while the woman rested her head on his lap.
Xu Bai glanced at it, and then closed his eyes to recuperate.
"Yue Ping, do you think your mother will like me?"
Lu Yueping said: "My wife has run away, can my mother still be mean to you?" Someone is willing to live with me, but my old lady can't burn high incense, so why don't you like it? ”
The woman's voice was sweet: "Then do you like me?" After all, the fat man introduced us to each other for only a few days, and now we have to talk about marriage and marry our parents, will it be too soon? ”
Lu Yueping bowed his head and said, "My wife and children are hot on the kang." Isn't that what it's all about starting a family? What fast and slow. This year, as soon as my sister gets married, my brother will marry you. ”
"Then will you be nice to me in the future?"
Lu Yueping touched her round buttocks, smiled and said, "If you really marry me, you will be my woman." Do you say good to your own woman? ”
"What's a good way?"
Lu Yueping said: "I do all the rough work, you just serve me." ”
……
Xu Bai listened to all these conversations even if he wasn't interested in listening to them.
In the middle of the night, the train has been out for a long time, and this car is very quiet because there are few people and no children.
Xu Bai and Lu Kun sent a text message until half past two in the evening, and when they just wanted to sleep, the lower bunk opposite made a creaking sound.
Xu Bai didn't dare to look at Lu Yueping's bed, but she also knew what was going on.
The sound continued for more than two hours without stopping.
The patrolling police officer shone a flashlight.
Lu Yueping ignored it, and after a few seconds, the beam disappeared, and the police continued to walk forward.
Xu Bai felt that this kind of thing might have been unfazed by the police for a long time.
It wasn't until dawn that the girl crawled back to the bed above Lu Yueping and fell into a deep sleep.
Xu Bai dared to get out of bed and go to the toilet, she held back for a long time, and she didn't dare to move before.
When he came out of the bathroom, Lu Yueping was leaning against the smoking area across the door and smoking.
Compared with high-speed rail, the only advantage of Pulie is probably that there are smoking points in the connecting area between the carriages and the carriages, which is undoubtedly a blessing for smokers.
Lu Yueping, who was wearing a vest, was oozing a lot of sweat on his body, shining in the dim light.
He spit out a puff of cigarette and smiled at Xu Bai: "Listened?" ”
"Don't know what you're talking about?" Xu Bai is still a girl, and this question can't help but make her blush.
She was about to go back to the bunk, and Lu Yueping's sweaty arm dipped against the wall: "I heard it, I heard it, the third brother is not embarrassed, what are you blushing." ”
As soon as Xu Bai was told by him, some voices seemed to reappear in his ears in an instant, and his cheeks suddenly became hot.
She kindly persuaded: "Don't you know what your identity is?" You shouldn't marry and have children like other men, and do harm to others. ”
Lu Yueping let out a 'ho' sound in his nose and said, "My head has fallen off and I have a big scar." Even if he is really arrested one day, he will be in prison for a few years at most, and he will not be able to lose his head. ”
She didn't say anything more after hearing this, her slender body bent, got under Lu Yueping's arm, and trotted to her bed.
The ponytail that was erected on the back of his head by a rubber band swayed left and right, imprinted in Lu Yueping's narrow black eyes.
Since she met Xu Bai, she was destined to become a touch of light in Lu Yueping's life.
After the train arrived in Harbin City, Xu Bai and Lu Yueping got off the train together.
Lu Yueping's girlfriend dragged him to a dumpling shop not far from the train station to eat dumplings, while Xu Bai stopped the car at the door and went straight to the village where his relative's house was located.
The village is not big, and it seems that the houses are in tatters, but Xu Bai heard a few years ago that the conditions of the people living in this village are not bad, and they are of medium level. Several families can even come up with tens of millions.
Xu Bai's father's aunt and uncle are among the rich people in this village.
When she was very young, she followed her father here, but she was too young to remember much about the people and events here.
After Xu Bai entered the door, he was led by his cousin to his aunt's hospital bed to look at people.
The benefit has been worn on the body, and it was the breath that was swallowed in the middle of the night last night.
Xu Bai frowned, but due to long-term unfamiliar contact, tears could not come out.
But according to the rules, she had to cry a few times.
Look at the thighs pinched, finally wet the eyes, and said a few warm words, Xu Bai was taken to the compound by his uncle to drink tea.
The dried smoked beans were added with sesame seeds and dried carrots, and a small lump was packed in a disposable plastic cup, and after being flushed with hot water, it went to Xu Bai's hands.
The son and daughter of my aunt exchanged a few words with Xu Bai, Xu Bai took a sip of tea, lightly persuaded them to mourn, and handed the money wrapped in white paper to his uncle by the way.
Chatting and chatting, two figures, one tall and one short, pierced Xu Bai's eyes in the distance.
The person who came was none other than Lu Yueping and his girlfriend of the same age.
The girl took Lu Yueping's hand and walked closer and closer, Xu Bai's eyes mentioned, and she was worried that it should be Lu Yueping's cousin's relatives.
As soon as this thought came together, the hairs stood on end.
Uncle Cousin glanced at Xu Bai's eyes and pointed at Lu Yueping, who was approaching: "Xu Bai, do you remember him?" ”
Xu Bai was excited: "What do you mean?" ”
The uncle took a sip of smoked bean tea and said, "Didn't your father bring you here when you were a child?" Uncle Luo gestured: "At that time, you were so tall, you lived in the village for half a month, and you mixed with the little boy in my neighborhood every day, and followed up all day long." How? Forgot it all? ”
Xu Bai's small mouth was so small that he couldn't speak for a long time.
I remember that I was very young when I came here, probably only seven or eight years old.
She really has no memory of what happened back then.
Swallowing and spitting into his throat, Xu Bai's eyes glanced at Lu Yueping, who was getting closer and closer: "Uncle Cousin won't say it's just him." ”
Uncle smiled: "That's right." You see how handsome you look. His mother told me yesterday that her son had found a girlfriend and was going to bring it to her today. He, he didn't meet the right person in the early years, he knew a girl who didn't have a home, he liked to play mahjong, he was lazy, and his conduct was not too good. I don't know what my new girlfriend is like, I hope I can find someone who is going through my life this time. ”
Xu Bai couldn't hear the words later.
Her eyes locked on the man and woman, and she didn't retract them until they stepped into the door of Lu's house.
Before entering the door, Lu Yueping glanced back at Xu Bai, hooked his lips and smiled at her, as if he had known that she would appear in the unknown small village of Harbin City.
Xu Bai tried hard to recall, but in the end, Lu Yueping when he was a child no longer existed in Xu Bai's memory.
After lunch, Xu Bai helped his uncle with the dishes at the gate.
Uncles and grandmothers will be cremated and funeral in accordance with the rules after three days at home, and at that time, the village will set up a long tent and set up dozens of tables for relatives and friends who come to mourn for a banquet.
The rule here is that whoever has a red and white affair, the whole village has to come to help.
So in the afternoon, Lu Yueping walked out of the house with his girlfriend and came to Xu Bai's cousin.
Lu Yueping's girl looked at Xu Bai, smiled and nodded, but her mouth was very stupid, so she stood beside Lu Yueping stupidly.
Lu Yueping gave Xu Bai's cousin a cigarette, chatted for a while, and moved a chair to sit next to Xu Bai after sending his girlfriend back to the house to take care of his wife.
A big hand reached into the big bucket of garlic, and when he took out one, he hissed and said, "I'll go to the third brother's house for dinner in a while." ”
Xu Bai said: "Don't go." ”
Lu Yueping peeled off the garlic and smiled: "When I came to Harbin City, I can't help you." ”
