Chapter 27
Fusheng Xinlan squeezed onto the train and finally squeezed into the carriage. She pieced together her luggage and stuffed it into the gap on the luggage rack. She calmed down and wanted to find a place to do it, but she saw people on the seat, under the seat, and in the aisle.
, the link is full of people. China is a country with a large population, which is prominently reflected here.
Fusheng was a man and could stand standing, but Xinlan, a woman, couldn't bear it after standing for a long time. Seeing Xinlan constantly changing her posture while standing, Fusheng felt a little distressed, so he took advantage of it and started chatting with someone sitting next to him.
In order to know if there was anyone getting off the bus nearby, in order to find a seat early, Fusheng's hope was in vain. In desperation, Fusheng had no choice but to let Xinlan sit on the side of a sleeping man on the aisle.
He moved to the corner of the seat to relieve the pain of standing. The man who woke up impatiently moved inward. Fusheng knew the man's kindness and hurriedly bowed with a smile to express his gratitude, even though the man didn't seem to open his eyes.
.
The train moved forward amidst the rhythmic beating sound. The air in the carriage was filled with sweat and hot air, and was filled with a sour smell of sweat. People were sitting, standing, or lying down without a trace of restlessness, and they were all trying their best to breathe in the turbid air.
Xinlan couldn't stand the meager oxygen contained in the train. She couldn't tell whether it was a symptom of hypoxia or lack of water. She just felt thirsty. She didn't expect that there would be so many people on this train today. I remember it was the same train last time.
Half a month before the Spring Festival, when I went to see my parents, there were very few people on the bus. According to Fusheng, after the economic policy was liberalized, there should be more people going to the south and fewer people going to the west. But today it was the opposite.
.
Xinlan hung on the corner and felt uncomfortable for a long time. He saw Fusheng standing in the aisle, changing positions from time to time, and knew that he was not feeling well, so he asked Fusheng to sit for a while so that he could take the opportunity to move around and drink some water.
Thirsty.
Fusheng didn't want to sit down, so he took a cup to get water, but found that there was no one at the link and the air was good, so he came back after fetching water and handed the cup to Xinlan, picked up a stack of discarded newspapers and returned to the link, ready to sit on the ground and smoke.
A cigarette to relieve his fatigue. He unfolded the newspaper and spread it on the ground. Just as he was about to sit on it, he was attracted by the news about the return of educated youths to the city. Fusheng read one side after another carefully, knowing that as the news continued,
It is a general trend to liberalize and invigorate economic policies, and it is a general trend for educated youths from all over the country to return to the city. Although the time and policies vary from place to place, it is only a matter of sooner or later.
Seeing this news, Fusheng was completely relieved. He no longer worried about policy changes, knowing that relocation was inevitable. What he was worried about now was the need to solve the housing problem immediately, because when he returned to his hometown to support rural construction, his family was relocated as a whole.
After enjoying the preferential policies of the country, the housing in the work unit was taken back. After adjustment, only Lu Bei, who stayed with Xinlan's parents, was given a dormitory for single workers. Later, because of Lu Bei's absence, the only room in the factory was
After the merger, the demolition and construction no longer existed, so every time I came back to see Xinlan’s parents, I would either temporarily stay at Xinlan’s parents’ house, or stay in a street hotel. If I come back this time, if the procedures can be completed quickly, where will I stay?
There is no problem. If the process is slow and takes a long time, it may not be possible to stay at Xinlan's parents' house. This will inevitably cause objections to Xinlan's younger siblings. However, it is not possible to stay in a hotel for a long time. The cost is too much and I can't bear it.
.What to do?
Fusheng did not tell Xinlan about such random thoughts. According to Xinlan, since he came back, he would live at home, but Fusheng did not think so. He thought that the time was short and it would be okay for the family to live together.
After a long time, living together will inevitably cause conflicts. He didn't want to offend everyone before he came back, so he thought about it and made up his mind. If the process took a long time, Xinlan would be left alone here. After all, this
It's her natal family, so everything will be more convenient, and daily expenses will naturally be less. Besides, there are still wheat to harvest and children to take care of.
It was already late at night, with fewer people getting on the bus and more people getting off, and the aisle was no longer crowded. Seeing that Fu Sheng hadn’t come in for a long time, Xinlan felt
I was a little tired and anxious to move my body, so I came to Fusheng with a tea cup.
Fusheng had a good rest in the afternoon and didn't doze off. He sat here and kept smoking when he had nothing to do. He was naturally in good spirits. When he saw Xinlan coming, he raised his head and asked, "Are you tired? Why don't you lie down here and take a nap?"
Xin Lan said: "I'm a little tired, but I can't lie down."
Fusheng said: "Don't worry about it, just wait a minute." Fusheng got up and went to the luggage rack to get a coat of his own. He came over and spread out the folded newspapers and spread the clothes on it, letting Xinlan curl up and lie down.
On it, he slept with his head on his ankles.
Xinlan lay on the floor, originally thinking she could fall asleep, but the rhythmic banging of the train, the cool air blowing in from the cracks in the door, and the conductor's opening of the door made Xinlan unable to sleep at all. Helpless, she
I simply sat up and cuddled up to Fu Sheng, talking without saying a word and thinking about my thoughts. In this way, I felt sleepy. In a trance, I felt that the carriage was full of people who had returned home, talking and laughing with each other.
They were all beaming with joy after learning about their respective experiences in going to the countryside and imagining the beautiful life after returning home. Xinlan, like them, was walking back and forth chatting... Suddenly, she saw the meat horn, Lin Qing, and several others in the crowd, and they were almost
Everyone saw Xinlan, so several people ran over and held Xinlan's hand. They only complained that Xinlan had moved back without saying a word. They all walked together. Xinlan held the hands of several people and said that she would go to the square to find them in the morning.
Yes, but I didn’t see them.
Fusheng's legs were so painful from Xinlan's scratches that he turned around to see Xinlan mumbling but no sound came out. He thought she was having a nightmare, so he hurriedly slapped her awake and said, "You're really good, you can dream up here too." Xinlan
When he heard about it, he told Fu Sheng what happened in the dream.
After hearing this, Fusheng said: "It seems that if we move in the future, we can't leave quietly. We must say goodbye to our neighbors and folks who have been neighbors for many years before we can leave!"
When the train arrived in Xijing on time, it was already bright, and the neon lights on the platform could no longer be seen in strings. People carrying large and small bags came to the station exit to check their tickets, and then lined up and walked out of the station.
, slowly disappeared into the gray streets amidst the noise of soliciting customers.
Fusheng Xinlan did not take the bus soliciting passengers. They knew that it was most convenient to take bus No. 1 on the way back to Xinlan's home. At this time, a long queue had formed at the bus stop not far away. Fusheng Xinlan did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed.
Before the team moved forward, they finally got into the car, but there were no seats left. The two of them stood in the aisle, put their luggage next to them, and raised their hands to hold the upper handrail. The car slowly started to start, but they were about to close the door.
, I saw a young man wearing a colorful top walking up from the car. Maybe he felt that Fu Sheng Xinlan was blocking his way, or maybe he disliked Fu Sheng Xinlan for being a rural person, so I saw him pinching his nose with one hand.
, with one hand, he pushed aside Fusheng's hand that had not yet fallen off the armrest, and squeezed past with an expression of dissatisfaction. Just at this moment, the car suddenly accelerated, and Fusheng suddenly lost his center of gravity and sat down on the table full of noodles.
