As for the 100 yuan given by Xiaosuo, Gao Guangbin and his family decided to accept it for the time being, so as not to brush off the child's kindness.

But they won't really take the child's money, although Xiaosuo is not bad now, but they can't bear to accept him, after all, he hasn't earned any money yet, and this hundred yuan may be how long he has saved up for the New Year!

When you have the opportunity in the future, you must find an excuse to exchange the money for the child!

After deciding to go to the capital, they began to wait for the school to have its winter break. The winter holidays in the northern countryside are generally held earlier and the holidays are longer. It usually starts in mid-to-late December and lasts until early March of the following year.

At this time, the major colleges and universities in the capital have not yet had winter vacation, and at least half a month or so of school can be on vacation.

Han Mingcui and his family planned to take advantage of her sister's holiday to take the children to visit the capital and let the children have a long experience. When Han Mingxiu had winter vacation, they would come back together.

As soon as the plan was decided, they wrote a letter to Han Myung-so and told her the news that they were coming to the capital.

When Han Mingxiu heard that they were coming, of course he extended a warm welcome.

However, the eldest sister has a large family, and there are only six children, plus the eldest sister and their two children, a total of eight people, it is not good to live in Uncle Gao's house.

So, Han Mingxiu cleaned up the courtyard house of Sister He Li's house that he bought, and waited for the eldest sister and their family to come and live.

On December 20th, Han Mingcui and several children had a winter vacation, and the next morning of the winter vacation. The family handed over their home to Yu Guizhen, and walked to the town one by one......

On the way, some familiar people saw their whole family going out, so they asked them curiously, "Guangbin, what are you doing with this family?" ”

Gao Guangbin said with a smile, "Go to the capital, isn't it, his aunt is studying in college in the capital, we think that the children are on winter vacation anyway, so we will take them to the capital to see, have a long experience, and take a look at his aunt by the way." ”

When acquaintances heard this, they couldn't help but say enviously, "Tsk, it's so good, Xiudu went to the capital university last year, and your family is really getting better and better!" ”

Of course, there are also people who see their family in the capital, and they are envious and jealous, and they will inevitably be pantothenic when they speak.

"I said Guangbin, how much does it cost for you family to take a train back and forth? Tsk, it's really rich, for us, even if we have relatives in the capital, we can't afford to take the old money and get into a car. ”

Gao Guangbin was really, when he heard someone say this, he didn't hear that it was pantothenic acid, so he said honestly, "It's not that we paid for the ticket ourselves, it was Xiaosuo who sent a hundred yuan to Niuniu and asked us to take them out to learn more, in fact, we didn't want to spend this money, but Xiaosuo has remitted the money, we can't give the child back......"

"What? Little lock sent you a hundred dollars? ”

Hearing this, the villagers present all stared at each other, as if they had heard some major news.

Someone said, "He's still a child, where did he get a hundred dollars for you?" Did you stop studying and go out to work to earn money? ”

Gao Guangbin said, "That's not it, everyone Xiaosuo is in high school, and his grades are good, this money is the New Year's money that his mother gave him, he has been saving and not spent, I heard Niuniu say that he wants to go to the capital to wander around, but there is no money to buy tickets, Xiaosuo took out a hundred yuan from his New Year's money and remitted it to Niuniu, and asked our family to take this money to the capital!" ”

"Yo, in this way, Xiaosuo is doing well now!" The person who spoke was Lao Linzi's daughter-in-law, and she was also a good girlfriend at a table full of people.

Gao Guangbin knew that this woman was not serious, and he also knew that she was good with the full table, so he was not happy to deal with her, and only said to the other villagers, "A few of us are still in a hurry, so I won't talk to you." ”

After speaking, he walked away with his wife and children.

After Lao Linzi's daughter-in-law heard that Xiao Suo had remitted 100 yuan to Gao Guangbin's family, she hurriedly ran to Sun Heizi's house, and shouted to the table that was chopping firewood in the yard and said, "The table is full of tables, don't do it yet, I'll tell you something!" ”

The table stopped, looking at her former best friend with blank eyes, "What's the matter?" ”

After only a year or two of hard work, the table is full of people who are ten years old, their hair is gray, they have lost a lot of weight, and even their sharp triangular eyes have lost their original brilliance, just like Xianglin's sister-in-law who returned to the owner's house again, and the whole person has become an empty shell without a soul.

Lao Linzi's daughter-in-law didn't care what she had become, she just sold the first-hand news she had gotten: "Didn't you always say that Xiaosuo recognized that godmother was not a good person, and said that she had to abuse Xiaosuo?" I didn't expect people to abuse the small lock at all, but I can still get used to the small lock, just now I saw Gao Guangbin and a large family of backpacks and umbrellas walking towards the town, so I asked casually, and guess what? ”

The table was numb and continued: "What's the matter?" ”

"Hey, the whole family is going to the capital, and they are going to live there for a while. Guess where they got the money to go to the capital? Lao Linzi's daughter-in-law asked excitedly.

She's got it all here, and if the table is full and she can't guess it, then she's not wooden, but stupid.

She pursed her lips twice and said reluctantly, "Is it ...... Don't...... Did the little brute give it? ”

'Little Brute' is the nickname given to Xiao Suo by the table, because Sun Heizi and her two younger brothers were in prison because of Xiao Suo, and she also has a younger brother who is crazy because of this, so she blames Xiao Suo for all this, thinking that if it weren't for him, their family would not be as miserable as it is now.

No matter what you say, Sun Heizi is his father, and her younger brothers are his nominal uncles, he shouldn't be so rebellious and send his father and uncle to prison and sentence.

That's why she always called the little lock a little brute!

"It's not like that!" Lao Linzi's daughter-in-law patted her thigh and said in shock, "Think about it, if he only has this hundred yuan, can he be willing to take it out for them to travel?" If I am left alone, I must have at least three or five thousand yuan, so that I can give my uncle a few pieces of tweed, it can be seen that your little lock must have made a fortune, otherwise you can't just take out a hundred yuan to give away! ”

The table was full of listeners, and the hand holding the axe suddenly tightened, and envy, jealousy, and unwillingness filled her heart.

Now, her man is locked up in prison, and she is alone at home, a woman's family supports the door, and she has to pull three children, needless to say the difficulties and hardships, if she hadn't secretly gotten along with two old bachelors, I'm afraid the family would have starved to death.

It's just that the two good ones don't have much money, and every time they come, they either bring her a gourd, or two ears of budding rice sticks, barely enough for their mother to fill their stomachs, and she hasn't tasted meat for a long time.

They are living so badly, but he is doing so well, how can he be willing?

Lao Linzi's daughter-in-law didn't seem to see the face of the table, and she chattered to herself, "Hey, you said that it would be nice if Xiaosuo could give you some money!" Although you treated him badly in the past, these children in your family are his own brothers and sisters, and he can give flowers to his uncle's sister if he has money, so why can't he give flowers to his own brothers and sisters? If he can show compassion for these children in your family, then your family's situation will not be so bad! ”

After hearing this, the table twitched the corners of his mouth, and said dryly, "I'm not rare, I just starve to death, jump to death in Hara Mountain, and never spend a penny on him!" ”

In fact, if Xiao Suo was really willing to give her money, she would have to smile and continue, but she knew the character of that little beast, he would rather tear it up and burn it if he had money, and would never give them a dime......

Hey, that's annoying!

**

Besides, Gao Guangbin's family took a car from the town to the county seat, and then took a car from the county seat to the city, and then took a train from the city to the capital.

They went in hard seats, and they didn't want to buy sleeper tickets.

In these years, everyone has no money, and few people are willing to spend their own money to buy sleeper tickets, unless it is a business trip and can be reimbursed.

A hard seat is not as comfortable as a sleeper.

The sleeper is a ticket and a bed, and the carriage is loose and wide, not crowded at all.

The hard seats are different, the people in the carriage are crowded, crowded like canned sardines, and there is no space to turn around.

The family squeezed into the car, and with great effort, they finally found a seat.

Gao Guangbin let Han Mingcui sit and let her hold the two little treasures, and he led a few daughters to stand beside him. When he was too tired to stand, he exchanged with Han Mingcui, sat down to rest for a while, and when he was hungry, he ate the dry food he brought from his house and drank the boiling water he picked up on the train.

However, in order to go to the toilet as little as possible (the toilet is always numbered), several people try not to eat or drink. I stood in this carriage full of body odor and tobacco smell for a day and a night......

Along the way, the two Xiaobao and Xiaomeizi were so aggrieved that they cried. Fortunately, Gao Guangbin and Han Mingcui are both patient people, and the children are not annoyed when they cry, but patiently coax them.

"Don't cry, good boy, be good, bear with me, when you get to the capital, your father and mother will take you to see Tiananmen."

Or: "Don't cry, be obedient, when you get to the capital, your father and mother will take you to eat delicious food......"

Relying on these beautiful promises, I finally survived a long day and a night. At about two o'clock in the afternoon the next day, the train finally arrived.

Gao Guangbin and Han Mingcui held a child together, and each carried a big bag.

Niuniu led Xiaomeizi, and Xiaoying and Xiaoli held hands.

Each of the three sisters also carries a big pocket on their backs. The pocket contained a change of clothes for several of them, as well as dried vegetables, bean buns and rice cakes prepared by their parents for their aunt......

The family got off the train with a large bag, as if they were fleeing the famine.

After getting off the train, they stood outside the station blankly, all of them a little confused.

The station in the capital is so big, so big that they can't find it. In such a big place, where can they go to find Han Mingxiu?

"Cui'er, Xiu'er didn't say she came to pick us up?" Gao Guangbin asked calmly.

Han Mingcui looked at the crowd coming and going, and swallowed with difficulty, "Say...... Speaking of which, but I was afraid of delaying her class, I didn't ...... Let her come. ”

I knew that the capital station was so big and there were so many people, so it was better to let her come. Han Mingcui said this sentence in his heart.

When Gao Guangbin heard his daughter-in-law say this, he was very annoyed. But he was reluctant to blame his daughter-in-law, so he had to hold on and said, "Then your mother will stand here first, don't move, I'll go and inquire." ”

Han Mingcui hurriedly summoned the children to his side and waited for Gao Guangbin to inquire.

In their group, they are cowardly, and they are small, so Gao Guangbin can go out and do something.

So, Gao Guangbin hugged the old and young, followed the way out of the station when he got off, found the ticket inspector who was checking the ticket at the exit gate, leaned over and said with a smile: "Comrade, I want to inquire with you......"

Before he could finish speaking, the ticket inspector came over with a knife in his eyes and said in a sharp voice, "Don't you see that I'm busy?" Why don't you go to someone else, you have to ask me who is busy? ”

Gao Guangbin touched the ash of his nose, so he had to shut up in a sneer, and went to inquire elsewhere with the child in his arms.

The service industry in this era was not as thoughtful as later generations, and there was no such thing as "the customer is God". In this era, this person in the service industry is the iron rice bowl of the public family, and the people are God, and the ordinary flat-headed people are a bunch of turtles in the eyes of these recognitions, and they can scold whoever they want, and they don't have to worry about being found by their bosses.

If there are people who don't have long eyes and have a conflict with them, the top will definitely protect them and clean up the turtles that don't have long eyes!

Gao Guangbin inquired about two more people, and those two were also coaxing, and they didn't care about Gao Guangbin at all. Later, an old man who swept the floor saw that Gao Guangbin was anxious, and kindly told him......

Besides, Han Mingcui was there, Gao Guangbin had just left not long ago, and Han Mingxiu came to pick them up.

"Oh, I'm late, you're in a hurry, right?" Han Mingxiu said with a sigh of relief.

She obviously pinched the time, but just now in the middle of the road her bicycle belt did not know how to get angry, she quickly found a place to repair the bicycle and put the car there to repair, she trotted all the way over, so she was late.

Han Mingcui looked at Han Mingxiu, as if she suddenly had a backbone, hurriedly greeted her, and said in surprise, "No hurry, Xiu'er, why are you still here?" Didn't I tell you not to come? Look, it's worth it for us to delay an afternoon of class. ”

Although the eldest sister complained in her mouth, she was actually very happy in her heart. My sister can ask for leave to pick them up, which proves that her sister is still very important and weighty in her sister's heart, can she not be happy.

Han Mingxiu took the big bag on the eldest sister, kissed the family treasure in her arms, and bent down to hug Niuniu, Xiaoying, and Xiaoli one by one, and then said to Han Mingcui:

"As soon as you enter the capital for the first time, can I not pick you up? The current capital is not as old as the first two years, and there are more people and cars stealing land, so I don't feel at ease to let you go by yourself. ”

As he spoke, he looked around again and said, "Huh? What about the eldest brother-in-law? And where is your family? ”

Han Mingcui said: "Your brother-in-law went out to inquire, and the old man also asked him to take him away, so I guess I'll be back soon." ”

Han Mingxiu said: "Then let's wait for a while, and when my eldest brother-in-law comes back, let's go together." ”

Not long after he finished speaking, Gao Guangbin came back with a tangled face in his arms.

Although the old man told him how Han Mingxiu's family had left just now, he was confused.

The capital's Dao is much more complicated than theirs. Ask around the village, at most, you can walk from here all the way forward, turn left (or right) for a long time, and then you will be there.

However, the road in this capital has turned a few corners, and how many roads do you go to turn left, how many meters you go to turn right, how many meters you go through what alleys, and then how and how ......

His head is so big that he listens, how can his brain remember so much? It's hard to memorize just the first two sentences, not to mention so much content.

It's just that he can't remember, and he can't ask people anymore, because the old man is still in a hurry to work, and he can't delay his work!

I was about to find someone to inquire about it, and suddenly I saw Han Mingxiu.

Seeing Han Mingxiu, Gao Guang, like his daughter-in-law, suddenly seemed to have found the backbone of the main heart, and suddenly smiled happily.

Han Mingxiu saw Gao Guangbin coming back with the old and young, so he hurriedly went over and picked up Xiaobei and recognized him in his arms.

"Xiaobei, Gao Jiabei, I'm your aunt, smile at your aunt......"

Xiaobei is still young, her eyes are raw, and when she saw the strange aunt hugging her, she suddenly pouted her little mouth like a clam scoop, and the tip of her little nose was also red, and she was about to cry when she saw it.

Han Mingxiu saw it and hurriedly returned the child to Gao Guangbin. led them all the way back to the courtyard with a smile.

On the way, Han Mingcui's family followed Han Mingxiu closely, scattering everywhere as they walked. Looking at the prosperity of the capital, people come and go, and the eyes are not enough.

Niuniu smacked her lips tightly and said, "Tsk, this capital is really good, much better than our county seat!" ”

Han Mingxiu said: "That is, this is the capital, it is the heart of the motherland, how can the county town compare with this?" ”

Niuniu shook her fists and said, "In the future, I must be admitted to the Capital University, and strive to stay in the capital and be a native of the capital." ”

"That's a good dare, it's rare that you have this ambition, if you can really get what you want, my aunt will definitely reward you." Han Mingxiu glanced back at Niuniu.

I haven't seen her for a few years, and Niuniu is getting more and more beautiful. And in the correspondence with the eldest sister, I learned that Niuniu's grades have always been very good, and when she was promoted to the junior high school exam, she took the seventh place in the township, although it was not as good as Xiaosuo's original results, but the seventh in the township was also very good.

In comparison, Xiaoying is much inferior.

Xiaoying, this child, is honest, her personality is very similar to the eldest sister, and the gentle ones are a little cowardly, but although the eldest sister is cowardly, she is at least good-looking and good-looking.

Xiaoying is not good, the longer she grows, the more she looks like Lao Wang's family. The beautiful genes of the old Han family have not been inherited from her at all. Not only is his appearance mediocre, but even his intelligence is middle and lower. I heard a letter from the eldest sister saying that although this child has studied very hard, her academic performance has not been good.

However, fortunately, this child is kind-hearted and very filial. Although it is not good to study, it is a good hand to work. The eldest sister is busy at work, and after work, she is busy taking care of Jiabao and Jiabei, and almost all the housework at home is taken care of by Xiaoying, laundry, cooking, feeding livestock......

I rush to do all the dirty work, it can be seen that this kid is still very good!

Xiaoli's appearance and academic performance are better than Xiaoying, but they are not as good as Niuniu.

Xiaomeizi is still young, she hasn't gone to school yet, and she doesn't know what it's like yet. However, in terms of appearance, her appearance is more handsome than Xiaoying and Xiaoli, and her personality is stronger and more cheerful than her two sisters, but I don't know what she can look like when she is older.

Jiabao and Jiabei are okay, I can't see anything yet, I can only see that these two children are very honest, maybe they all follow their parents......

In short, the eldest sister's children are very good. Generally speaking, there are a few kind and filial children, even if they are blessed, they can give birth to children like the dragon and phoenix among people, after all, they are a minority, and the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law can have such children, which is already very happy and lucky......

**

The courtyard is not far from the station, less than twenty minutes away.

After arriving at the courtyard, Han Mingcui's family opened their mouths in surprise when they saw that the courtyard was so beautiful and magnificent.

Han Mingcui stood in the middle of the courtyard, sprinkling this antique courtyard, and stammered a little: "Xiu'er, this house ...... Did you borrow it, or did you rent it? ”

She never thought that this house would be Han Mingxiu's. After being brought in, the first feeling was that Han Myung-so borrowed it.

Or, it's rented.

Anyway, I didn't think that Han Mingxiu bought it.

Han Mingxiu said with a haha: "You don't care about this, anyway, a few of you, just stay here in a down-to-earth manner, just take this place as your home, don't be polite, and don't see outside." ”

Han Mingxiu had already prepared the bedding of the eldest sister's family. Before I went to pick them up at the station, I burned the house hot, and even prepared rice, flour, oil, vegetables, meat, and fish for them.

"Come, put everything down, put the child on the kang, and you can rest."

Han Mingxiu greeted everyone while going into the kitchen, took out a few cups, poured hot water for them, and asked them to drink some hot water to warm their bodies and quench their thirst.

Han Mingcui and his family were afraid of going to the toilet on the train, so they basically didn't eat or drink that day and night. At this time, when he saw the steaming hot water handed over by Han Mingxiu, he couldn't help but feel dry in his throat and eyes. I didn't care about being polite, so I picked up the cup and drank it with a grunt.
