Chapter 8 Hard Seat

Susie looked out the window and asked, "What does your mother look like?" ”

Tian Xiaohui buried her head in her knees, "My mother-my mother is a middle-aged woman without any characteristics. ”

Susie saw a middle-aged woman with short hair not far away stretching her neck and looking anxiously into the carriage, with a faint shadow of Tian Xiaohui on her face, and it was estimated that it was her mother.

Seeing the middle-aged woman looking and walking behind, Susie just wanted to ask Tian Xiaohui to look up, when she suddenly heard a heart-rending shout: "Susie-"

Susie's pupils narrowed suddenly, and she saw Lian Qing running and looking in the distance, shouting.

He was followed by Su Haiqing!

Su Haiqing ran blindly like a headless fly.

When Su Haiqing looked over, Susie's heart almost stopped beating, and she quickly threw herself on the small table, burying her head in her arm.

Tian Xiaohui, who was with her head tied next to her, also heard Lian Qing's shout, eating and laughing, "Your family is also here, hehehe, don't the two of us elope together?" ”

Susie lay on the table and couldn't help but laugh.

It was the first smile she had ever smiled when she came into the world.

The boy on the opposite side saw the girl's black and shiny ponytail spread on the table, and it seemed that it still exuded a faint fragrance.

He turned his head to look out the window and saw a handsome young man running over with an anxious shout of "Susie".

Tian Xiaohui still stuck her head: "Why don't you drive this car yet!" ”

"Yuan Gang, you can help me see, is my mother gone?"

Yuan Gang picked his head: "This, I don't know your mother either." ”

Just when Susie and Tian Xiaohui were restless, the train let out a long whistle: "Woo-" Then the rails clanged, and the train began to move forward slowly.

Susie let out a long breath and sat up straight, the train moved, and she was not afraid.

Tian Xiaohui quickly raised her head, leaned over to Susie's side and looked out the window.

She suddenly waved out the window, "Mom, I'm here!" ”

Tian Xiaohui and her mother followed the sound and looked over, and finally met Tian Xiaohui's eyes, she rushed at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and scolded next to the car window, "You dead child, you have eaten the gall of a bear heart and a leopard, such a big thing, you actually hide it from me and your father, you, you conscienceless." ”

She scolded and cried, then pulled a stack of money out of her coat pocket and reached it out of the window.

The window was a little high, Tian Xiaohui leaned down, stretched out her arm, and took the stack of money.

The speed of the train is getting faster and faster, Tian Xiaohui's mother ran for a while and gradually couldn't keep up, she waved her hand vigorously, "Remember to write a letter to home when you arrive, and also, ask for leave early in the New Year to come back to visit relatives!" ”

"Retract your body quickly, it's dangerous!"

Tian Xiaohui promised loudly, "I will write a letter, you and your father must be well at home." She sat back in her seat, pinched the stack of money, and suddenly burst into tears.

No one paid attention to the cry in the noisy carriage, only a few people nearby looked at Tian Xiaohui.

Susie took out a small handkerchief from her trouser pocket and handed it to Tian Xiaohui.

Tian Xiaohui turned around and lay in Susie's arms, "Woo woo, I can't bear my mother, I can't bear my father." ”

Susie patted her on the back and said funny, "It's too late for you to regret it now." ”

Tian Xiaohui cried for a while, wiped away her snot and tears, raised her head, folded the small handkerchief and put it in her trouser pocket, and said in a muffled voice: "I will wash the handkerchief and return it to you." ”

Susie smiled, "You don't need to return it, it happens to be a new handkerchief, you can keep it." ”

Yuan Gang, who was on the other side, seemed to be in order to avoid Tian Xiaohui from being immersed in a bad mood, and took the initiative to bring up the conversation, "Do you know that we educated youths have resettlement fees for going to the countryside." ”

Tian Xiaohui was really attracted by this topic, "Really? How much? ”

Yuan Gang shook his head, "That's not good, the national regulations are more than 100, but many places can't come up with money, so they just give some casually." ”

"The province we went to Gui is one of the poorest provinces in the country, and I don't think we can get much money."

Tian Xiaohui pouted, "How can this be." ”

She snapped her fingers, "I still have to buy a hot water bottle and a basin, I'm afraid my parents will find out, and I don't have a mosquito net, so I have to buy it." ”

"Alas, I don't know if the resettlement fee is enough to buy things."

Susie listened for a while and asked Yuan Gang, "By the way, do you know when we will arrive in Gui Province?" She looked at it just now, and there was no time information on the ticket except for the number of seats, not even the departure time, let alone the arrival time.

Yuan Gang picked his head, "This, I don't know, let's wait for the conductor to check the ticket later, let's ask again." ”

The young man beside Yuan Gang spoke slowly at this time, "If it's not late, the arrival time at the station should be almost ten o'clock." ”

Susie thought for a moment, "Ten o'clock tomorrow morning?" ”

The young man sneered, "It's ten o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, and it takes seventy-two hours from the capital to Gui Province." ”

Susie was stunned, she was used to modern and convenient transportation, and she said that ten o'clock tomorrow morning was already taking into account the backwardness of this era.

She didn't know that the trains of this era were much slower than the green trains of later generations, and the speed of the green trains of later generations was already the effect of several times of speeding up of the railway.

Susie then nodded at the boy, "Thank you." ”

The boy folded his arms, leaned against the window, and closed his eyes, apparently not caring about the thank you.

Tian Xiaohui was shocked next to her, this was her first time taking a train, and she was a girl, and she had no concept of distance or anything.

"It's going to take so long? Three days! ”

"Just sit all the way to Gui Province?"

Yuan Gang on the other side smiled, "That's not it, we are hard-seat tickets, but we can't sit all the way." ”

Tian Xiaohui frowned sadly, "Sitting for three days, what a sin." ”

Susie stood up at this point, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

Tian Xiaohui let out a "uh" and blinked her eyes twice, "You mean to go to the toilet, right?" She turned to Susie.

Susie then thought that the word toilet, no one said it at all in this era, and it was probably introduced from Hong Kong and Taiwan after the reform and opening up.

She secretly reminded herself to pay attention to the details in the future, not to be caught by the pigtails and reported or something, and walked towards the end of the carriage.

Not long after the train started, the toilet was not so nervous, and Susie only waited for a while before a girl came out of it.

She went in to solve the physiological problem first, and then took out the stack of money that Xu Min gave her in her trouser pocket and counted it.
