Chapter 149: Leaving the station and returning to his hometown
Since the eighth day of the lunar month, the city has been left one after another, approaching the Spring Festival, migrant workers who have worked hard outside for a year, counting and looking forward to it, to the present day, began to set off to return home.
Two days after the eighth day of the new year, Wu Hou and Mai Wenxiang are also about to embark on the road home, they have been on vacation, and they continue to stay in the city, but they also have nothing to do.
In the rental house, Mai Wenxiang got up early in the morning, washed her face and brushed her teeth, and then braided two thick braids for herself in the mirror, and carefully dressed her face. I was about to go home, and the girl's family was very excited, packed a large bag in advance, confirmed the ticket information over and over again, and looked at the watch while busy, for fear of missing the train.
Wu Hou hasn't gotten up yet, last night he and Li Zhiguang, Feng Mo and the two of them got together together, since they didn't go to school, Wu Hou rarely saw them, but after all, they were also classmates, before leaving, Feng Mo and Li Zhiguang made a special appointment with Wu Hou, the three of them drank in a small restaurant for half a night, they were all drunk, and Wu Hou even went to the river to practice knives and put them aside.
Because of drunkenness, Wu Hou opened his eyes groggily after Mai Wenxiang cleaned up everything, this is still the consequence of Mai Wenxiang's urging over and over again, if Mai Wenxiang doesn't come to call him, it is estimated that he can sleep until the afternoon.
Wu Hou dragged his bulky body out of bed, walked out of the room in a daze, and saw that Mai Wenxiang had already installed the salute, the sofa, dining table, TV, and coffee table in the room were covered with a layer of dust cloth by Mai Wenxiang, and the pots and pans in the kitchen were also covered by Mai Wenxiang with plastic wrap, after all, it would take more than a month to go back this time, and there would be no one here for a long time.
The eighteen changes in the female college will not only become more and more beautiful, but also become more and more careful.
Wu Hou looked at his watch, there were still nearly three hours before the train departed, and there was enough time, but Mai Wenxiang was still afraid that it would be late, so he urged Wu Hou over and over again, asking him to hurry up.
There were steamed buns and soy milk bought by Mai Wenxiang for him on the table, Wu Hou simply ate a few steamed buns, drank a few sips of soy milk, and then went into the bathroom, skillfully squeezed out the toothpaste onto the toothbrush, and after brushing his teeth, he released hot water to wash his face, and finally washed his head. By the time he had everything cleaned up, it took less than twenty minutes.
In fact, Wu Hou can be a little faster, after all, boys, easy to clean up, unlike girls, it takes at least half an hour to get up and clean up, and some women can even use up two hours just to groom in the mirror.
After everything was ready, the two of them each put on their own bags, carried their lockboxes, looked at each other, pushed open the door with a smile, and walked out of the house where they had lived for half a year.
When he went downstairs, Mai Wenxiang said that Gu Qinghui was going to send the two of them to the train station, which would already be waiting downstairs, Wu Hou was slightly surprised, and then thought of Duanmu Shenjiu and Guan Qingyao, these two people didn't say anything to send them off, which made Wu Hou a little disappointed. Especially Guan Qingyao, let alone to send herself, she didn't even call Wu Hou in the past two days, and she didn't know what she was busy with.
When they got downstairs, the two of them saw the big Mercedes-Benz at a glance, parked on the side of the road eye-catchingly, Gu Qinghui leaned on the front of the car very stylishly, and put on a pair of sunglasses very coolly.
After seeing him, Mai Wenxiang screamed from afar, Gu Qinghui reacted when he heard the call, and hurriedly ran over to help Mai Wenxiang carry his luggage, help them put the salute into the trunk, and then the three of them got into the car together.
On the way to the station, Gu Qinghui kept telling Mai Wenxiang, asking her to pay attention to safety on the road, not to eat some unclean things casually, especially strangers, and not to say a word to them.
Gu Qinghui knew that it was very tiring to take a long-distance train, and there was chaos on the car, there was everything to do, and there were countless charlatans, and Mai Wenxiang, who had little social experience, was definitely the priority of those scammers.
At this time, Gu Qinghui is very much like a mother-in-law's mother-in-law's family, this is not at ease, and he cares about Mai Wenxiang, but in Wu Hou's view, this kind of care has become courteous.
Wu Hou looked out the window, not wanting to listen to Gu Qinghui's chatter anymore, but as soon as he looked outside, he heard Gu Qinghui say again, "By the way, I brought you some special products from Hangzhou, you two can take them back and give them to your aunts." ”
Mai Wenxiang wowed, Wu Hou turned his head curiously when he heard it, and saw Gu Qinghui take out two long boxes, the lids were transparent, and there were two silk scarves in each box, which looked very precious, and Wu Hou couldn't help frowning and taking a few more looks.
Gu Qinghui saw the expressions of the two, and explained with a smile, "This is made by my own family, it is made by the traditional craftsman himself, and the scenery of the West Lake above is also hand-embroidered, and the material is made of fine silk, Hangzhou embroidery, each of which is expensive, I specially went to the company's exhibition hall to get two back, let you take it back to the aunts, one for each aunt, they must like it." ”
Mai Wenxiang took the box with both hands, handed one to Wu Hou, and then looked at the silk scarf in the box with affection, thinking that such a beautiful silk scarf, my mother must like it.
Wu Hou glanced at the silk scarf without being salty, held it in his arms casually, and looked out of the window indifferently.
Gu Qinghui noticed Wu Hou's strange appearance, so he made a look with Mai Wenxiang and asked Wu Hou what was wrong. Mai Wenxiang replied to him in a low voice, "I guess I didn't sleep well, he was drunk last night, and I pulled him up this morning." ”
Gu Qinghui pouted, although he also likes to drink, he rarely gets drunk.
The car drove to the train station, there were a lot of people at the station, there was almost no place to stay, many people stood in the square with large bags and small bags, bustling and noisy. Gu Qinghui's driver finally found a parking space, and after stopping the car, he stepped out of the driver's seat and helped the two of them take the salute out of the trunk.
"Remember to miss me. Gu Qinghui touched Mai Wenxiang's face.
Mai Wenxiang lowered her head and said shyly: "Whoever misses you, I don't want you." ”
"Hey, hey, you're going to lie. Gu Qinghui raised his hands to support Mai Wenxiang's face, and said with a smile, "Call me if you miss me, if you don't want me, um... Then I'll go to you. After speaking, he also lay on it and kissed it, not caring about the feelings of the people on the side.
Wu Hou squinted at the two of them on the side, and got goosebumps all over his body, he hurriedly walked away a few steps and hid a little farther away.
At this time, Wu Hou's phone rang, he skillfully took out the phone, and when he saw that it was Mu Haisen calling, he wondered why Mu Haisen was calling him at this time.
"Hey, Brother Sen, what's wrong?" Wu Hou asked, picking up the phone.
Mu Haisen's familiar voice sounded over there, "Wu Hou, have you arrived at the station?"
"It's here, what's wrong?"
Mu Haisen didn't answer Wu Hou, and asked again: "Are you here?" ”
After Wu Hou heard this, he began to look around with his mobile phone, but the crowd was too crowded, and it was really difficult to find someone.
Mu Haisen was anxious on the phone, and Wu Hou heard him curse, "Your grandma's, stepped on my foot!" It is estimated that someone accidentally stepped on it while walking.
Then Mu Haisen shouted to Wu Hou on the phone, "Wu Hou, you find a high place to stand up, there are too many people, I can't see you." ”
Wu Hou looked around, where is there any high place, all of them are people, crowded people, like rushing to the temple fair, Wu Hou sighed in his heart, the Spring Festival, it is really terrifying.
Sighing, Wu Hou's eyes fell on Gu Qinghui's Mercedes, he had a flash of inspiration, and said to Mu Haisen on the phone, "Brother Sen, wait a minute." ”
Then Wu Hou came to the front of the car with an arrow step, raised his left foot and stepped on the bumper, and with a little force, the whole person jumped on the roof of the Mercedes-Benz, and the roof of the car instantly dented.
The driver was taken aback when he saw this, and obediently, this is a guy who eats by himself, how can he be trampled under his feet so casually, so he hurriedly said, "Hey, my little ancestor, what are you doing here..."
Gu Qinghui heard the voice, looked at Mai Wenxiang, and saw Wu Hou standing on the roof of the car, they all wondered, Gu Qinghui raised his hand to signal the driver not to speak, and then looked at Wu Hou and asked, "Wu Hou, what are you climbing so high?"
Wu Hou looked around and replied, "Find someone." ”
Then Wu Hou heard someone shouting his name, followed the voice, and just saw Mu Haisen who was approaching this side, and Duanmu Shenjiu was with him.
Wu Hou's mood suddenly brightened, jumped out of the car, patted Gu Qinghui's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Step on it, don't be angry." ”
Gu Qinghui couldn't help but look at Wu Hou with a smile, thinking that he must have thought that he would be angry because of his driver's reaction, so he said this.
So Gu Qinghui said generously to Wu Hou. "What's there to be angry about, I won't be angry if you step on it, the car can be given to you. ”
Wu Hou laughed a few times, "Really?"
Gu Qinghui nodded and said with a smile, "Can I still lie to you?" When you come next year, I will give you the car. ”
Wu Hou's eyes rolled around a few times, and he simply nodded and said, "Okay, that's it." ”
From the moment Gu Qinghui said that he would give Wu Hou a car, Wu Hou after that began to "exploit" Gu Qinghui for more than ten years, but this is all a later story.
Mu Haisen and Duanmu Shenjiu came to the front of the car, their foreheads were sweating, it seemed that they were squeezing around in the crowd just now, and it took a lot of effort.
Mu Haisen looked at Wu Hou with a smile, reached into his pocket, took out a thousand yuan, and handed it to Wu Hou.
Wu Hou was surprised, "Brother Sen, what are you giving me money for?"
Mu Haisen waved his hand and said, "Don't get me wrong, this is not for you, it's for Chunxi." ”
Wu Hou looked puzzled, he didn't understand what it meant, what was meant by Chunxi.
Mu Haisen was surprised, "Don't you know yet?" Chunxi is getting married, I can't leave, so I'll just go, just if you want to go back, help me send the money." ”
"What? Brother Chunxi is getting married? He didn't tell me..."
"Haha, I guess I know that you're going back soon, so I'm going to tell you when you go back. ”
Wu Hou sighed in distress, took the money in Mu Haisen's hand, and then Duanmu Shenjiu walked over, also took out a thousand yuan from his pocket, and handed it to Wu Hou.
"Master, who are you transferring this to?"
Duanmu Shenjiu smiled and groaned, "No one will hand it over, it's for you." ”
Wu Hou looked at Duanmu Shenjiu suspiciously, his face full of disbelief. Duanmu Shenjiu explained, "Didn't you say that when you go back, Master will give you money." A few years ago, in the mountains, the master had no income, and he couldn't give you New Year's money during the New Year's holidays, but now that the master has income, it just happens to be the Spring Festival again, and I don't plan to go back, so I'll give you the New Year's money in advance. ”
Wu Hou immediately smiled and said, "Then Master, can you make up for all the debts you owe in previous years?"
Duanmu Shenjiu's expression was stunned for a moment, he frowned and looked at Wu Houshu's entire face, shook his head and sighed, took out another thousand yuan, and said, "Give you another thousand, stinky boy, I care more and more about money." ”
Wu Houle blossomed, made a posture of the juniors saluting the elders on TV, and pretended to say, "Thank you Master for rewarding the silver." ”
Mu Haisen and Duanmu Shenjiu shook their heads and smiled bitterly, watching Wu Hou put the money in his pocket.
Mu Haisen suddenly looked at the knife of no return that Wu Hou was carrying and frowned, he hesitated: "Wu Hou, you... Don't you know that knives are not allowed on the train?"
Wu Hou, who was excited, heard this, and the whole person stood there, and he realized it later, "Oh! I forgot, the non-return knife belongs to the controlled knife! It is not allowed to be brought on the train, what can I do..."
A few people on the side looked at Wu Hou like a joke, and Mai Wenxiang smiled: "I carry a knife all day long, and I carry it everywhere, it's okay now, I can't continue to carry it, right?"
Wu Hou cried with a sad face, he didn't know what to do, now he was used to carrying the knife of no return every day, if he suddenly didn't carry it, he would feel uncomfortable in his heart. Besides, I have to practice knives every day, if I don't have a knife by my side, what are I going to practice by myself?
The train will never let passengers carry knives, this is a dangerous goods, can not be brought to the car, now for the flow of people in a large place, the government has implemented strict supervision, especially on the train, is not allowed to do anything that may endanger personal safety, no accident is good, in case of an accident, it is definitely a bad ending.
"What can I do about this, Master..."Wu Hou looked at Duanmu Shenjiu with a bitter face.
Duanmu Shenjiu thought for a while and replied: "Since you can't bring it, then leave the knife here first, and help you keep it for the time being, and then return it to you when you come over in the New Year." ”
Wu Hou thought about it, and it could only be like this, so he took off the non-return knife and handed it to Duanmu Shenjiu.
After Duanmu Shenjiu took the knife, he looked at the relaxed Wu Hou, and as soon as his heart moved, he squatted down in front of Wu Hou, and touched the pair of anklets engraved with the words "Meditation and Guarding the Dao" on Wu Hou's neck with both hands.
"You can't take the knife back, and since you can't practice the knife, let's practice the strength of the legs. ”
Duanmu Shenjiu's big hands touched the anklet, and there was a slight luck on his hand, and a burst of golden light was imperceptible, and then he instilled internal force into the anklet, and quietly increased the weight of Wuhou's anklet a little.
After finishing, Duanmu Shenjiu stood up and motioned for Wu Hou to raise his foot, Wu Hou tried to lift his left foot, he felt that the ankle bracelet on his foot seemed to have become heavier again, if he hadn't been mentally prepared in advance, he would probably have to stumble to the ground again. But even if he was mentally prepared, he only raised his feet a few centimeters high.
Wu Hou was puzzled, "Master... How many pounds is that..."
Duanmu Shenjiu replied with a faint smile, "About five hundred catties." ”
"Damn...."Wu Hou wanted to cry without tears.
Mu Haisen looked at Wu Hou from the side and expressed deep sympathy, while Mai Wenxiang and Gu Qinghui didn't know what was going on.
There was a commotion in the crowd, and then a few people looked over and saw that there was a crowd of people, and a few people fell to the sides as if they were being pushed away, and then a girl walked through the crowd and ran in front of Wu Hou and the others.
This girl who ran over was Guan Qingyao who came in a hurry.
When Wu Hou saw Guan Qingyao, his eyes were happy, and he was about to step forward, but he was not used to the weight of five hundred catties on his feet for a while, so he pounced and fell directly to the ground.
Guan Qingyao had just run in front of a few people, and before she could speak, she saw Wu Hou kowtowing to her, and the startled girl glared at her with big eyes, and wondered, "What are you doing here?"
Mu Haisen, along with Mai Wenxiang and the passers-by who heard the movement and came over, laughed out loud.
Wu Hou glanced at Duanmu Shenjiu with resentment, and muttered sullenly, "It's all Master's fault." ”
Guan Qingyao stepped forward to help Wu Hou up, helped him wipe the dust on his knees, didn't ask more, but looked at Wu Hou affectionately, and said solemnly: "Have a good trip, I'm waiting for you to come back here." ”
Wu Hou nodded heavily, mumbled, and then the couple, under the gaze of many people, hugged each other.
The two hugged for a long time, both closed their eyes, Wu Hou buried his nose in Guan Qingyao's hair, took a few deep breaths, he liked the fragrance of Guan Qingyao's hair, this smell made him feel very relaxed.
Guan Qingyao also took advantage of the hug to lie on Wu Hou's back and kiss it gently, and whispered something, and then saw Wu Hou let go of her, and said in surprise: "Really?"
Guan Qingyao nodded again and again with a smile.
"Haha, congratulations. ”
"Come on, don't fall behind in your cultivation. Guan Qingyao looked at Wu Hou and said.
The two reunited not long ago, and the time reached the point where the train was about to enter the station, and the loudspeaker in the station square had already begun to announce the number of trains that were about to enter the station, Wu Hou and Mai Wenxiang had to separate from everyone, pick up their luggage and walk to the station.
Wu Hou looked at Guan Qingyao reluctantly, Gu Qinghui reluctantly looked at Mai Wenxiang, the two couples who had just confirmed their relationship for a long time experienced their first station parting.
