"Little sister, here are two hundred yuan, twenty kilograms of military food stamps and five kilograms of military meat stamps. You can use it to buy food on the train," Lin Qingping said and stuffed the money and tickets directly into the small suitcase.
inside.
"Okay, thank you brother and sister-in-law," Lin Qingxi did not refuse. She knew that she could not refuse the kindness of her brother and sister-in-law.
After packing her things, Lin Qingxi went out with a small suitcase and two military water bottles. As soon as she walked out of the yard, she saw Zhou Guitang driving an ox cart, and Zhou Guilin and his wife were sitting on the ox cart.
After Lin Qingxi waited for the bullock cart to stop, she got on the bullock cart with the help of Aunt Sun. When she got on the cart, Zhou Guitang whipped the cow's butt with a whip, and the cart started moving.
Along the way, no one said a word, mainly because everyone was in a hurry and worried about Zhou Daxin, who was thousands of miles away, and didn't know what else to say.
Hurrying slowly, the ox cart arrived in Qinghe City in three hours without any pause. The ox cart went straight to the train station. After the ox cart was stable, Lin Qingxi went directly to the ticket office without picking up her luggage.
"Hello, comrade, do you have a ticket to Maple City? When does the nearest one leave?" When Lin Qingxi came, there happened to be no one in front of her, which meant she didn't have to wait in line.
"Yes, we will drive in an hour. How many tickets do you want?" The ticket seller looked up at Lin Qingxi, took the letter of introduction from her, and was about to write the tickets.
"I want two sleeping tickets," Lin Qingxi handed over the letter of introduction first, and then gave her the money.
The ticket to Fengshi cost fifteen yuan a ticket. Lin Qingxi gave the money, took the ticket and the letter of introduction from the ticket seller, collected the letter of introduction, and went outside to look for the two purchased tickets.
Zhou Guitang and the others.
"I bought the tickets. We will drive in an hour. There is still time. Let's go to a state-owned hotel to have a meal first. It's been a whole morning and everyone is hungry." Lin Qingxi showed the tickets to Zhou Guitang and Zhou Guilin
look.
"Okay, after time, let's go have dinner first." After seeing the ticket, Aunt Sun also came to her senses. She remembered that she didn't give Lin Qingxi any money, so she must have paid for the ticket herself.
Thinking of this, Aunt Sun felt very sorry. She asked someone to accompany the two elders to take care of her injured son, but in the end she had to pay for the ticket herself. She was really good at it.
But things have already happened, and regretting is of no use. It is better to invite people to have a meal at a state-owned hotel to make up for it.
At this moment, Aunt Sun had no idea that her son had already given away all his wealth to Lin Qingxi, and all their expenses on the way to the army would be paid for by Lin Qingxi alone.
What's more, she didn't show any signs of it and directly enjoyed the filial piety from her future daughter-in-law.
"Xi Yatou, Lao Er, Lao Er's family, you go in and order food first, and I'll park the ox cart." The four of them arrived at the state-owned hotel in the ox cart. Zhou Guitang asked everyone to go in first, and he went to park the ox cart behind the state-owned hotel.
.
These days, everyone travels by oxcart or bicycle, but there are still a few people who can afford bicycles. Most people rely on their own 11-car, that is, walking, so there are many public places in Qinghe City.
Carts and bicycles can be parked.
"Comrade, please have one braised pork, one braised fish fillet, one spicy chicken, four bowls of beef noodles, twenty steamed buns and ten meat buns," Lin Qingxi glanced at the blackboard at the ordering window.
The menu was served and we started ordering.
Zhou Guilin and his wife were illiterate and didn't understand these things. They didn't say anything and just watched Lin Qingxi ordering. They only had money and no tickets, so they didn't dare to speak even more. They just thought about getting the tickets later.
Convert it into money and give it to Lin Qingxi.
"Okay, comrade, the total is fifteen yuan and eighty cents plus three kilograms of food stamps." After the female comrade said that, Lin Qingxi handed over the money and tickets. The man gave Lin Qingxi a number plate with his backhand.
Just let Lin Qingxi and the others wait at the dining table.
About ten minutes later, Zhou Guitang also parked the bullock cart and came over. He was also calling from the window to bring noodles. Before Lin Qingxi could do anything, Zhou Guitang and Zhou Guilin went to the window with a sign and brought four bowls of noodles.
"Everyone, eat quickly! I also ordered three dishes. I will eat as much as I can later. If I can't finish it, I brought a lunch box and we packed it and took it to the train to eat," Lin Qingxi said and started to eat.
.
Not to mention, the beef noodles are quite generous and there is a lot of beef in them. After a big bowl of beef noodles, everyone will be full.
After finishing the noodles, Lin Qingxi took out two aluminum lunch boxes and a cloth bag containing boiled eggs from her suitcase, gave the lunch boxes to Aunt Sun to pack the leftover braised pork, braised fish cubes and spicy chicken, and took the cloth bags herself.
Go to the window to pack steamed buns and steamed buns.
"It's about half an hour before it's time to get on the train. Let's go directly to the train station and wait!" Lin Qingxi looked at her watch and planned to go to the train station first and wait for the train.
Zhou Guilin and the others had no objection to Lin Qingxi's decision. If they didn't understand this, they must have understood it because of Lin Qingxi. Then, the four of them moved to the train station.
"Uncle Tang, you can take these two meat buns and eat them on the road. We will go in and wait for the bus. Don't worry, comrade I know. We will send a telegram to home when we get there," Lin Qingxi held the small buns in her left hand.
box, holding a bag of food in his right hand.
As for the military kettle, her own one was slung over Xin's shoulder, and the other was given to Zhou Guilin to carry. The two of them didn't bring much with them, and their luggage was just a baggage containing their change of clothes.
"Okay, be careful on the road, girl Xi, you and Uncle Lin have never traveled far, so please be more careful," Zhou Guitang said uneasily.
"It's okay, Uncle Tang, I'm here," Lin Qingxi nodded, not dragging, and led everyone to the waiting room. The three of them arrived at the waiting room, found a place to sit down and waited.
"Girl Xi, let me hold this bag of food! Do you want your suitcase to be held by Uncle Lin?" Aunt Sun grabbed her luggage from Lin Qingxi's hand with a strong attitude and put the small suitcase
I gave it to Zhou Guilin next to me, and I took the bag to eat.
"Girl Xi, don't worry. Uncle Lin has no other abilities but a lot of strength. You, a little girl, don't have to worry about this. Just give your luggage to uncle." Zhou Guilin was carrying a baggage, and Aunt Sun was empty-handed.
Lin Qingxi was carrying something in both hands and felt very sorry.
"Okay, I'll trouble you, uncle," Lin Qingxi couldn't resist Zhou Guilin and his wife, so she had to let them go.
After waiting for almost ten minutes, she heard the sound of the train's whistle coming into the station. Lin Qingxi quickly led Zhou Guilin and his wife towards the station entrance. The three of them waited at the station entrance for a few minutes when they saw
The train was slowly approaching on the train tracks.
