Chapter 185: Arrival [4.2K]
Yi San didn't drive fast. The car was driving on the highway, leaning on the leftmost lane, and cars on the right were speeding by. There weren't that many cars in this era, and the highways seemed empty. Yi Yang said, if you drive slowly, it is best to put the car on the middle road, the leftmost lane has the highest speed limit, and in foreign countries, the left lane is specially used for overtaking. Yi San listened, didn't say anything, just silently turned the right turn light, looked in the rearview mirror, and then slowly changed his way.
It was getting closer and closer to Hanning City, but Yi Yang felt that the sadness on the second uncle's face was getting stronger and stronger...... The second uncle naturally didn't deliberately show it, but with his ability to observe words and colors, it was impossible to ignore. I thought about a few possibilities, but I didn't think it was very reliable, so I finally couldn't help but ask: "What is the second uncle thinking?" ”
Yi San was stunned, "What's wrong?" ”
"I don't think the second uncle seems to be very happy......"
"Not happy? Not...... No! How so? You're going to study in the best school in the province, how can you be unhappy? There is also Yi Chuan...... This kid hasn't been to Hanning yet, and it's a joy to bring him to see the world......"
Yi Yang frowned, "Really......"
Along the way, Yi San didn't talk much, and Yi Yang was also happy, just helping to see the way, and occasionally saying a few words, so that the second uncle would not be stuck. With such an atmosphere, Yi Chuan in the back still had a strong excitement of going out at the beginning, and he watched the unchanged scenery on the highway for a while, and the noise gradually became smaller, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep, and he slept all the way.
Yi San sighed silently. It is indeed a matter of heart...... But it's not as complicated as some of the possibilities that Yi Yang tried to imagine.
The first upsetting thing is more embarrassing to say. He didn't drive for a long time, and the number of times he drove to Hanning City was zero. This leads to a very formal and very serious question......
I don't know the way.
This is an era when there is no mobile navigation.
Not only do I not know the road, but when I get to this kind of big city, there are complicated traffic rules, this intersection can not be turned, that intersection can only go to the right, the line on the ground, the lights in front, the mess makes people worry.
I didn't tell Yi Yang about this, on the one hand, I was embarrassed, and on the other hand, I felt that Yi Yang had never been far away, the last time I heard him say that someone was picking him up at the station, how could he understand these things as a child? It's good not to get lost in the city. After all, he is an adult and an elder, and at this time, Yi Sanwu is worried, but he also feels that he must shoulder it himself to solve the problem......
I asked some of my fellow villagers who had been to Hanning City, and they said a solution.
"When you enter the toll booth, there will be some people holding a sign at the intersection that says lead the way. These people are usually natives of Hanning City, and what they do is to lead the way for people from other places, you pull them into the car, and they show you the way...... It's the price, look at the distance, after all, people to the destination, but also to go back, but generally quite expensive, last time I went to a wholesale market, spent a hundred yuan to lead the way......"
For now, this seems to be the only solution. Yi San felt that the hundreds of yuan for the road was indeed too expensive, but at this time, there was no other way than to give money to Ren Zai. As a result, "If I had culture...... You can just how it is". It's naturally something to worry about, and half the time along the way is thinking about it.
The other half, on the other hand, is upset by another thing.
It's about Yiyang.
There is no bloody plot, but I simply thought that my nephew is studying in a big city and sends him to school, and his classmates will be the most powerful children in this city and even this province, and there are naturally many of them...... Rich.
No matter how bad it is, the family conditions are very good.
So I can't help but think of a scene, at the school gate, when my nephew's classmates drove them to school in a very expensive car, one by one the parents wore suits and ties, and when they came to themselves, a broken micro card......
It's nothing for him to lose face, but thinking of Yi Yang in that environment, his heart is as uncomfortable as a pinprick. This sentiment is not obvious in the county town, because most of the students in the county town are from the countryside, everyone is about the same, and occasionally there are a few people with better conditions, and they are conspicuous...... Although it was an enviable conspicuousness.
And his nephew is very likely to get to know his classmates in another form of conspicuous presence on the first day of school.
That possible scenario made Yi San sad, but he was helpless. At this time, he misses his eldest brother very much, if ...... If the eldest brother is still there, he can probably make Yi Yang raise his head proudly in front of his classmates in the big city, right?
Last time, he said that he was going to send Yi Yang to the exam, and this emotion was not strong, but this time, because the learning environment for the next three years has been determined, he will continue to imagine that kind of scene.
These two events made Yi San sad since the day before his departure, and he was entangled until now, the closer he got to Hanning City, the stronger his emotions became, so that an uncontrollable unnaturalness appeared on his face.
Yi Yang hadn't figured out the mental activity of the second uncle yet. Although in many cases, he can guess the thoughts of others, but at this time, there is indeed a lack of an opportunity for him to empathize with the feelings of the second uncle.
When he was about to arrive at the toll station in Hanning City, Yi Chuan behind snored, Yi Yang listened and listened, and unconsciously took a nap, closed his eyes, and his consciousness was half asleep, and he didn't notice how much time had passed, and then woke up in a noise.
“200! This one has to be at least 200! ”
“150!”
"Big brother, 150 is really not good......"
Yi Yang opened his eyes, looked at the surrounding scenery, and found that he had passed the toll booth and the car was parked at the entrance to the city. After listening to the conversation, I thought that the second uncle was buying something, but when I sat up and looked at it, I was a little speechless......
The second uncle was haggling with a woman who was holding a sign that read "Lead the way".
Yi San saw that the other party's attitude was very resolute, and he said that the distance was too far, and he had to take a taxi back or something, he was also a little hesitant in his heart, after all, he couldn't guess the cost, and it was really difficult to bargain, so when he hesitated to grit his teeth and give the 200 yuan, Yi Yang directly shook the window.
"What is this for?"
"There's no need, second uncle, I know the way, I'll just give you navigation, there's no need to spend this unjust money. And to be honest, 200 pieces take this road...... Hehe! Yi Yang sneered: "Is this money so easy to make?" ”
From the toll station to the high school attached to the Normal University, most of the distance is on the main road, the traffic is convenient, and it doesn't take much time, the other party obviously just looks at the second uncle's car is a foreign license plate, and it is the first time to come, I don't understand anything, and I want to knock on it.
At this time, the woman was a little panicked, knocked on the car window again, and the voice came through the car window: "150 is 150......"
Yi Yang ignored it and said to Yi San: "Second uncle, you can just drive it directly, I know the road, look, we are now on the Ningguan line, go directly to the road, go to Dongxing Avenue, and drive all the way to the city, you can take the third ring road, or you can go directly to the second ring road." The third ring road is a fast lane, there is no traffic jam, if you take the second ring road, the distance is a little shorter, and it can also let Xiaochuan see the scenery in the city, but it may be a traffic jam......"
Yi San was stunned, looked at the leading woman who was still chattering outside the car window with some hesitation, looked at Yi Yang again, and asked, "Is it reliable......
"Reliable."
"You...... How do you know so many things? ”
"Uh...... Read books, there are books, maps, etc., and there are newspapers. ”
"Oh...... That's right. Yi San couldn't help but sigh again and nodded: "That's okay, second uncle listens to you." ”
Now, ignoring the woman at all, Yi San lit the fire, waved his hand to the woman outside the car window, and motioned for her to get out of the way, the woman was stunned, subconsciously took a step back, and then the car started in front of her eyes.
The woman shouted from behind, "100! 100! Do it or not! ”
The car drove away without the slightest intention of stopping.
……
For people in small counties, traffic rules are indeed not so complicated, it is nothing more than knowing a traffic light. Even before the way to get a driver's license was not standardized in previous years, you could get it after paying money...... Over time, the reason why many rural people who come to the big city for the first time often make jokes when driving.
"Look at the second uncle, the extra section of the road in front of you, with a dotted line, is called a left turn waiting area, a green light, and a straight car can drive over, but we want to turn left, at this time, we will turn left at this time, drive over and wait......"
Yi San has been completely numb, and the calmness he shows to Yi Yang can only be attributed to the benefits of reading...... Previously, I was a little worried about whether Yi Yang could adapt to life in a big city. At some point in front of him, he knew that Yi Yang understood these traffic rules, but at this time, he was still able to analyze and be confident in Hanning City, which was enough to make him completely relieved.
Because Yi Yang wanted to give the second uncle the road, and help him keep an eye on the traffic signs, street signs, and various signal lights on the ground at any time, he had no time to pay attention to Yi Chuan.
Yi Chuan, who came to Hanning City for the first time, leaned on the car window and looked out curiously, everything here made him feel novel, and at the same time his eyes were a little ...... Get cold feet.
There are a few classmates in the class who have been to Hanning City. Those classmates often say that Hanning has such and such good things, such as KFC, McDonald's, amusement parks, aquariums and the like, and every time they talk about those experiences, everyone gets together and is envious, and he is envious.
When he came, he thought that when he went back in the future, he would be able to brag to those classmates.
It's also someone who has been to the provincial capital.
This expectation made him feel satisfied.
So along the way, I kept asking my cousin, father, what were all those things I hadn't seen.
"Is this the overpass written on TV and in books......"
"Those houses are so tall."
"I know that car, BMW! There are so many car logos......"
"Cousin, why are there so many foot bath shops in Hanning City? Do Hanning people like to wash their feet? ”
"What does spa mean?"
“……”
Under Yi Yang's guidance, Yi San smoothly drove the car to the vicinity of the High School Attached to Normal University. The registration is two days tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, Yi Yang is going to find a hotel that is relatively close to the high school attached to the Normal University to live in, and chose two, Yi Sanyi heard that he wanted more than 15 room fees, and immediately vetoed it, and when Yi Yang said that he would pay, he even criticized it.
There was no way, and in the end, the three of them found a hotel that only cost 60 yuan a night to live in.
The hotel naturally does not have much of a good environment, there are two beds in the room, a TV, but it looks quite clean, but all the facilities that can be seen are like products more than ten years ago, full of age.
But for Yi San, this place has been roofed, and after entering the room, he said very proudly: "Look, it's still pretty good, much better than at home." "Of course, this is his own home.
Yi Chuan jumped on the bed excitedly, then turned on the TV, and found that there were hundreds of channels on the TV here, and there was even a cartoon channel dedicated to playing cartoons.
Yi Yang discussed the next arrangements with Yi San. It's just past noon at this time, take Xiaochuan to walk around in the afternoon, sign up tomorrow, it shouldn't take much time, you can take Xiaochuan to the zoo tomorrow afternoon, the aquarium and other places, he hasn't seen it. The day after tomorrow...... It depends, and if it's okay, go back.
Of course, there is another link that cannot be ignored, Yi Yang still has to sit in the car and help the second uncle navigate to the toll booth on the day he walks, otherwise it will be a very difficult thing for him to drive out of the city. When you get to the toll booth, just take a taxi back.
So it was decided.
After driving a long-distance bus in the morning, Yi Yang proposed to take a rest, and the second uncle agreed, lay down on the bed, praised that the bed was so soft, and then fell asleep not long after. Yi Yang smiled, and also lay down on Yi Chuan's bed, and fell asleep after a while. Only Yi Chuan was left in the room, staring intently at the TV. The sound on the TV, as well as the noisy traffic outside, seems to be a lullaby full of fireworks.
……
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Yi Yang and the second uncle got up and cleaned up and took Yi Chuan out for a walk. Naturally, he didn't go far, just walked around the nearby streets, there were some shops selling clothes open, and at Yi Yang's suggestion, he went in and shopped, but the second uncle said he didn't like it when he saw the price on the tag. Yi Yang knew that the second uncle would not buy the clothes here, especially at the moment that he was willing to be shackled by the identity of the elders, and he was absolutely unwilling to let himself spend money, so he did not force it.
After all, his current identity is just a freshman in high school, and letting the second uncle accept some of his expensive gifts is a psychological burden for the second uncle.
Just walked to some small shops and saw some toys that were not available in the county, Yi Yang bought a Transformer for Xiaochuan in the opposition of his second uncle. It's not particularly expensive, less than ten yuan, Yi San said a few words, but still accepted it, and asked Yi Chuan to thank his cousin.
In the evening, the three of them continued to stroll around and see the night view of the city. The three of them walked to the edge of the Hanning River, watching the neon of the city being crushed into the sparkling river, the breeze blowing, Yi Chuan looked at the end of the river and suddenly said......
"Brother, I'm going to study here in the future!"
Yi Yang smiled and touched Yi Chuan's head.
