In addition to writing letters to her son, Lin Lan also wrote to Chu Yunfeng, mainly asking about Sanwang's situation, lest he report good news but not bad news, or refuse to take the initiative to ask for help if there is any trouble.
Chu Yunfeng's reply was very fast. He told Lin Lan that Sanwang's course schedule, cross-country physical training in the morning, swimming standard movement training in the morning, and water training in the afternoon, Sanwang completed very well! In addition, there is a cultural class in the morning and afternoon. In the evening, the teacher will organize the students to carry out class activities, contact feelings and so on.
He spared no effort in praising Sanwang in the letter, and Lin Lan's face was warmed by the praise, making him look like his son.
In short, Lin Lan felt relieved when she knew that her son was fine at school.
She asked Sanwang to write about his school life, how his classmates were, how his roommates were, how he was training, how he was eating, how he was in class, whether he went out to play, etc.
This is the minimum content of writing a letter. This kid has perfectly avoided everything that should be written.
Moreover, Lin Lan was afraid that he would not take his culture class seriously, so writing letters could at least exercise his ability to read and write.
And Sanwang has new requirements for his family. He asked his family to write him a letter. The content ranged from eating, drinking, learning, working, and working in the village to gossip about relatives in the village. palm".
Lin Lan didn't believe that he knew how to use the word "knowing like the palm of the hand", and guessed that someone else might have told him.
Sanwang's letters to his family are also diligent. The first letter was received in half a month, and the second letter was received after a few days, asking for a thorough understanding of the situation at home.
After receiving the third letter in a few days, the child began to mess around.
The front is the same as the first letter, a fixed routine, greet everyone in the family including Shen Yu, and then love it again. The first two letters ended here, and then began to make demands.
This third letter, I changed the handwriting directly after I loved it again.
The writing is good, and the content meets the requirements. It mainly talks about their training, eating and sleeping.
"Training is training, there is nothing to talk about, except for running on the single parallel bars, just laying on the mat and paddling blindly."
"The white flour steamed buns are enough. I eat three at a time! I hid two for the first meal and wanted to save them to take home, but they said they would go bad, so I had to wake up in the middle of the night and eat them. If I couldn't sleep, I practiced paddling in bed."
"Cooking really has meat, oil and water! It's a pity that it's lean meat. It's not good to not eat fatty meat."
"Sleep? There's nothing to say, just go to sleep. Oh, there is a smelly foot in the dormitory, which makes us dizzy. We force him to wash his feet, and he won't be allowed to sleep unless he washes it."
"Class? There's not much to talk about in class. I'm listening and I'm very serious!"
"Going out to play? No, I don't have time yet. I have to wait for the teacher to give me a leave. I'm not allowed to go out of the school, I'm afraid they will go out and play wild."
"Roommate? Five, of course I'm the most handsome!"
Although the handwriting is not his, the tone is not bad at all. It seems that he has found a ghostwriter.
Lin Lan could almost imagine his son leaving home, without supervision, in the dormitory and in the culture class. Originally, I wrote a letter to ask him to take a cultural class, but he turned out to be good. There are policies and countermeasures, so he directly asked someone to write it.
The classmates are also really kind, and they actually helped him.
Lin Lan held a family meeting to discuss how to deal with this bear boy.
Erwang: "In the future, we will write in difficult-to-recognize characters, and we can also play number games. His classmates' educational level should not be very high."
Mai Sui also smiled: "Yes, not only the words that are difficult to read, but also the classical Chinese words are mixed, making it difficult for him to read the letter."
Xiaowang: "Oh...you...you can't go too far, the third brother has been training very hard." Then he smiled, "I'll draw Sudoku, haha."
Sudoku was taught by Shen Yu, and the children had a lot of fun, especially Erwang and Maisui.
Lin Lan clapped her hands and said yes, and looked at Dawang again: "When the eldest brother enters junior high school, he will learn English. Then we will write to him in English, and we won't be able to cure him!"
Dawang: "..." What's the matter with me!
In the afternoon, Lin Lan went to the publicity team and listened to Dong Huaihua gossip after work.
"After the ugly guy was beaten by you, he was also dismissed. Haha, everyone who walked through his back door was fooling around. It was just that Yu Xin, who went through his back door and transferred to the team and even got a recommendation for a university. It's nonsense. You said that a good girl, if you have to do that, it's not ashamed. Now it's good, everyone knows how she goes through the back door, let's see how she can get along, "
Liu Chuncai: "I heard that she is going to marry Fang Bisheng."
Lin Lan was shocked: "Marry Fang Bisheng?" Who would want to marry such an ugly guy? Besides, the relationship of going away has been invalidated, and the thick-skinned one will pull down, so why marry him
Dong Huaihua: "She relied on her relationship with other people's sleepiness to run, which made the members and educated youth know, who doesn't poke the spine? Where does she have a face? In order to cover up, it can only be said that the two of them are friends."
It's only right and proper to treat someone to help. If you don't go through the back door, others can't say anything about her.
Lin Lan didn't say anything anymore, she didn't take Yu Xin seriously.
In the evening, when she came home, Han Qingsong just came back. He brought back a large piece of beef, which was dripping with blood. It was very fresh.
Lin Lan was surprised: "Third brother, where did you get the beef?"
"If the commune brigade had a head fall and couldn't be saved, the commune ordered the slaughter. I bought a few kilograms and brought it back." half a point.
Lin Lan saw that what he bought was beef brisket, which happened to be stewed with tomatoes.
Han Qingsong handed her another letter by the way, "There is a letter from the provincial capital."
provincial capital
Lin Lan immediately realized what he said, and said in surprise, "Is it alright?"
Han Qingsong nodded, "The doctor said that it is best for a child to undergo surgery at the age of seven or eight. He is sensible and does not scratch randomly, and his resilience is also strong."
Lin Lan couldn't wait to pull out the letter and found the key point at a glance. Sure enough, the doctor asked the child to take the child for surgery in the fall or next spring, because it is too hot in summer and prone to inflammation, and it is too cold in winter to recover slowly, and the temperature in spring and autumn is suitable.
She hugged Han Qingsong fiercely and said happily, "Third brother, that's great, great! I can finally operate on Xiaowang, and I won't need to wear glasses in the future!"
Although not as good as normal eyes, but at least life is not affected.
Han Qingsong felt warm when she saw how happy she was, "It's more than a month away from autumn."
"Thank you third brother, now that we have received the letter, we can be happy for more than a month. And..." Lin Lan kissed the letter, and her lips were printed on the envelope Han Qingsong's name.
Another good thing happened to be together.
Han Qingsong: ... I'm here.
Seeing that Lin Lan didn't intend to kiss him, he lowered his head and kissed her.
…
Lin Lan pressed the letter on the dining table and waited for the children to come back and show them to make them happy too. She took Han Qingsong's hand to pick tomatoes. Because the children in the family love to eat them, she collected several varieties, including red and pink, with different maturity periods. The pink ones can ripen half a month earlier. Eat just fine.
After they picked the vegetables and tidied up the vegetable garden, when they came back, the three ears of wheat were also out of school, and they were talking about the big piece of beef.
When they came back, the children asked curiously, "Father, mother, where did you get such a big piece of beef."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Your father bought it, it's a rare opportunity."
At this time in the countryside, unless the cows die or die unexpectedly, they really can't eat beef. After all, they are all working animals, and the members cherish them.
Lin Lan: "Have you finished work, why hasn't Big Brother come back yet?"
Wheat ear: "Big brother must be hoeing and mowing the grass with a sickle."
Lin Lan: "Then let's stew the meat first, and wait for the big brother to come back. By the way, there is a letter on the table, you can take a look."
However, Han Qingsong had already taken the letter, took out one of the letter papers, handed it to the children, and put the rest in his pocket.
Lin Lan realized something, and hurriedly handled the beef as if nothing was wrong. His comrades-in-arms have a certain way of making fun of Han Qingsong. They used to be together, and they joked that he might be brushed back by him on the training ground. Now they go home separately. What kind of reaction would be under Qing Song's indifferent expression, they thought it was funny.
Addicted.
Just now she read the letter and only focused on the part of Xiaowang's surgery. She didn't look at the back carefully. There must be something like Lao Han, we are not young guys, we must pay attention to health and self-control...
If the kids can see it, ahem.
Han Qingsong glanced at her, and patted her waist, the heat on her big hands was ironed to her skin at once through the thin single coat.
Lin Lan: "Cut the beef quickly, blanch it in boiling water, and scald the persimmons to peel them." In summer, the meat is easy to spoil, and there is no refrigerator, so no matter how much it is, it must be cooked at one time.
The children jumped for joy when they read the letter.
Mai Sui hugged Xiao Wang, "Little brother, you don't need to wear glasses after the operation."
Xiaowang giggled.
Erwang carefully read the letter several times, "It will take more than a month, but the temperature is suitable for the operation in autumn, and Xiaowang doesn't have to suffer too much."
Xiao Wang took off his glasses and said gratefully, "It will take a while for you to work hard."
Everyone laughed.
Erwang saw that his father was helping his mother at home, so he said, "Then let's go to mow the grass first, and we'll be able to eat when we get back."
Wheat also said to go, Xiaowang also followed, and they went to mow the grass.
Han Qingsong helped Lin Lan cook, and the two cooperated tacitly.
Put the beef in a pot with cold water, cross the tomatoes, roast them on the fire, peel off the skin and dice. When the water boils, skim off the scum, and remove the brisket with a fence to drain the water. Another pot is set on fire, after the pot is heated, add a little peanut oil, put onion, ginger, garlic, dried chili, pepper and star anise in the oil and sauté until fragrant, then shovel out the pepper and star anise, and add half of the diced tomatoes in and stir. Fry in golden red oil. Then put the beef brisket in and stir fry, add soy sauce, add a tablespoon of farmhouse sauce, add a small bottle of capped white wine if there is no cooking wine, add a tablespoon of white sugar at the end, then add boiling water, bring to a boil over high heat and simmer slowly, then simmer On Erhe Noodles, it will be rotten in more than an hour.
Soon, the smell of meat drifted far away.
Lin Lan also diced the remaining tomatoes, added some oil to the casserole and boiled the red sand. After an hour and a half, the beef in the big pot was stewed, and it could be put into the casserole directly.
When the children came back from outside, Lin Lan and Han Qingsong just came out, and she scooped a large spoonful of the golden-red broth for Han Qingsong to taste.
"Mother, I can smell it from three miles away!" Xiao Wang picked up the mantle of the little third brother and came over to drink.
Han Qingsong immediately held Lin Lan's hand and drank the spoonful of broth in one breath.
Xiaowang: "! Dad, are you hot?"
Han Qingsong said as if nothing had happened: "Your mother has blown it, and it's not hot."
"Mother, I want to brag too." Xiaowang: "I want double, and the third brother's, hehe."
Lin Lan fed them one by one, but only Da Wang refused.
So childish!
There was still a lot in the pot, enough to eat at home, so Lin Lan asked Sister-in-law Han to deliver a bowl, and Erwang asked Shen Yu to eat.
Shen Yu was given food rations, and half of them were kept at Lin Lan's house. If Lin Lan's house had delicious food, or if he had something delicious, he would bring it over to eat together. The children regarded him as their eldest brother.
Knowing that Xiaowang could have surgery, Shen Yu was also very happy, "I will write a letter to my family, and I will ask my uncle and the others to help me receive it." Leading the way is good. In addition, they have to live in a hostel, which is too expensive, and the family can help arrange a sleep.
I am very grateful for Shen Yu's thoughtful Lin Lan.
After getting along for so long, they also knew about Shen Yu's life experience. His mother died when he was 7 years old. After two years, his father remarried, and there are younger brothers and sisters born to his stepmother at home. Although he never mentioned how his stepmother was here, it can be seen from his close relationship with his uncle's family that his stepmother should not be very good to him.
Therefore, the Lin Lan family also took more care of him.
And Shen Yu also felt a lot of warmth from them. Knowing that they were going to the provincial capital, the first reaction was to help arrange it.
"Don't worry, I have contacted my comrades in the provincial capital, and I can borrow the school dormitory without spending money." Han Qingsong said.
It was possible to arrange dormitories for the troops, but the troops were far from the hospital, and it was inconvenient to go back and forth, so it was more suitable to live in the school.
Shen Yu smiled and said, "That's really good. After the surgery, I'll walk around the provincial capital by the way."
Xiao Wang is very longing.
Erwang: "I vaguely remember Teacher Chu saying that they have a swimming competition in the fall?"
Mai Sui: "Yes, it seems to be from the region, not in the provincial capital."
Lin Lan said calmly, "The regional competition is a selection competition. It will be held in two days. Those who are selected will go to the provincial competition."
Listening to Chu Yunfeng's meaning, Sanwang will definitely pass the regional trials. This time there is a junior group, and it is divided into age groups. Sanwang is no problem.
Lin Lan: "Let's not tell the third brother about going to the provincial capital for treatment."
Xiao Wang held back his laughter and nodded frantically, "We're going to give Little Three Brother a surprise!"
After Huo Hongzhen found out, she was also very happy, and took the initiative to write to Huo Yuan about the person who Lin Lan wanted to take Xiaowang to the provincial capital for surgery, and asked her to receive a visit at that time.
Afterwards, everyone went on as usual, writing to Sanwang without saying anything, but paying close attention to his regional preliminaries, although he was all ghostwriting, and his family was not so harsh, he only told him to rest and train well.
A few days later, I received a letter saying that he passed the regional trials and will go to the provincial capital on September 6 to participate in the provincial competition on the 7th.
Lin Lan works as usual, except that it is a soap factory, she and Shen Yu raised the issue of environmental protection for the first time, especially not to pollute the water and land.
In fact, their soap factory is mainly produced by hand, and the main raw materials are oil residue, caustic soda, salt, etc. No toxic chemicals such as sulfuric acid are added, so there is not much pollution. But she wants to put forward this statement in advance, at least to influence the sideline business and people's thinking in advance, so as not to compete for profit after the 1980s and leave environmental protection behind.
With Shen Yu in charge of the technical team, Lin Lan is very relieved. He only needs to ask him, as long as he understands and approves, he will go all out to do it.
Now the educated youths in Shanzui Village, who are capable and willing to work, have been incorporated into the soap factory by him.
In the blink of an eye, the autumn harvest is here again.
All members of the commune have to devote themselves to the autumn harvest work, and because of the educated youth, the soap factory does not need to suspend production and continues to produce.
After being busy for a month, the brigade divided sorghum, beans, and millet on this day, and they were busy until evening. Da Wang took Er Wang and Mai Sui to pack up, and Lin Lan took Xiao Wang home to cook.
Now Xiaowang can help her start the fire.
Xiaowang was able to draw and sketch while burning the fire. It was all Lin Lan's cooking movements and demeanor, and he grasped it very well.
Lin Lan had soaked and washed the bacon that Han Qingsong brought back, so it wasn't that salty. Then, he cut the meat into neat slices, made winter melon bacon, topped it with two-heel noodle pancakes, and steamed eggplant and beans. After steaming, you can mix eggplant and beans with mashed garlic, pour some sesame oil and it is delicious.
The mother and son were busy when the female announcer's voice came from the radio, "The '73 Autumn Provincial Swimming Games will officially start on September 7, which is the second time since the provincial swimming competition was resumed in 1971. In the Autumn Swimming Meet, under the guidance of Chairman Mao's revolutionary line, the contestants trained hard and strengthened their physique... This competition is divided into a youth group and a youth group. They are all from various regions and counties in the province, outstanding workers, peasants, soldiers and sports schools. The students—"
Lin Lan stopped cutting the tomatoes, and Xiao Wang pricked up his ears and held his breath...
"The list of the youth group...the list of the youth group...Han Wangmin..."
"Mother!" Mai Sui and Er Wang ran back together, and Er Wang, who had always been calm and steady, was overjoyed, "San Wang is on the radio!"
Xiaowang also jumped up, "I heard it too, it's really the little third brother, what it said on the radio!"
For them to be in the newspapers and the radio, that's a very, very, very amazing thing! It's more exciting than the competition itself.
They never told Sanwang that he was going to the provincial capital to treat Xiaowang. It was so hard to hold back. Every time they wrote a letter, they wanted to write it.
Dawang also picked up the last load of grain and put it in the tank to cover it.
When Han Qingsong came back from work, they told him the good news.
Lin Lan: "Third brother, you can buy a train ticket. Let's go as soon as possible."
Han Qingsong took out an envelope and gave it to her, "It's done, it's the day after tomorrow."
The day after tomorrow is exactly the 7th. This day is the preliminaries. They will arrive on the 7th in the evening, and they can go to the semi-finals on the 8th.
Lin Lan smiled and rolled her eyes, "I really have a good heart."
She took it and took out the train ticket to show the children. She and Han Qingsong had a full ticket. From the county seat to the provincial city, it cost 5.6 yuan per person. Xiaowang was not bad, and bought a child ticket.
Mai Sui and Erwang looked at them and saw that there were still three more tickets. They were puzzled: "Mother, why are there so many tickets? Brother Shen Yu and the others also want to go back to the provincial capital?"
Lin Lan glanced at them and said with a slight smile, "Of course I'm taking you to the provincial capital for a walk."
"what?"
Not only Mai Sui and Erwang, but even Dawang was stunned.
"Mother, shall we go too?"
Lin Lan smiled, "You don't want to go?"
"Yes, of course! But—"
Erwang: "So much money, it's too expensive, why don't you treat Xiaowang first, and then wait..."
Lin Lan put the ticket in their hands and let them take a good look. "Now is the best time. It will be the future. It will feel different from now. This is the first time our family will travel to a big city." She He patted Xiaowang's head, "Follow Brother Xiaowang."
Everyone laughed. Although going to a doctor was a bad thing in itself, when she said that, it was full of joy.
I am happy to be cured of the disease, and now I can travel with my family, which is even more happy.
It happened to be the autumn vacation, and Erwang and Xiaowang didn't need to ask for leave. Dawang and the others reported on September 1 from their junior high school, and they didn't need to ask for leave when they came back from the autumn vacation to harvest crops.
However, Lin Lan still asked Han Qingsong to tell the school that if he couldn't come back by then, he would also ask for a few days off.
Mai Sui hugged Lin Lan, "Mom, when did you and dad discuss that we should go too? I'm so surprised and surprised."
Originally everyone thought it was a surprise for Sanwang, but who would have thought that the parents would give them a big surprise.
Take the train, go to the provincial capital, this is the first time.
How meaningful!
Lin Lan hugged her and said with a smile, "Thanks to your father's hard work, we have this good opportunity."
She and the children thanked Han Qingsong again: "Thank you Director Han, Director Han has worked hard."
Han Qingsong: "..."
Dawang stood aside to look at the train tickets. Although he didn't say anything, the corners of his flying eyes and brows showed his happiness.
After dinner, Lin Lan let the children move freely, went to the friends to talk about it, or prepared something, whatever they wanted, anyway, they had two days to prepare.
In fact, when she wanted to surprise Sanwang, she thought about whether to surprise the other children. If going out once can broaden their horizons and let them see the difference between what a big city is like and what the countryside is like, the memory of this first time is also a lifetime treasure for them.
There are several issues that need to be considered when the whole family travels. The first is the cost. At this time, the travel expenses are the largest, and it costs ten yuan for one person to go back and forth, as well as room and board. Even if someone can help, but they don't want to take advantage of others, they have to do it themselves. So travel expenses plus room and board, she had to prepare a hundred or so dollars.
After Han Qingsong knew what she was thinking, he didn't say anything at first. The next day, he went to the county public security bureau to find the old director.
He expressed his willingness to participate in the exchange meeting of public security organizations in various regions in the provincial capital in early September.
The old director was surprised, because he was not enthusiastic about this kind of meeting before, and felt that it was a waste of time to go out to eat, drink and play, and it was meaningless. Since Han Qingsong is willing to go, let him go, after all, it is his turn.
After talking to the county public security bureau, Han Qingsong went through the formalities, and his ticket, food and lodging could be reimbursed, and a sum of money was paid in advance. In addition, the exchange meeting can bring a clerk to help organize the minutes of the meeting and write the manuscript. He doesn't want it, and he can do it himself.
He also applied to take his daughter-in-law and the children with him, because the daughter-in-law was going to treat the children, so he happened to be on the way and wanted to get half of the tickets for the children.
Lin Lan is an adult, but it doesn't matter, they can pay for it by themselves.
The officer in charge of this in the bureau gave him a veiled suggestion, let him go through the motions, and directly changed Lin Lan to the identity of the clerk in the bureau, so that he could be the same as him, and the children could also be reimbursed by other means.
Han Qingsong naturally refused. It would be good to get half price. This is the welfare of the cadres. If reimbursement is illegal, it will be considered as embezzlement of money and grain in the bureau.
In the end, Xiaowang said that the child ticket is cheaper than half the ticket but there is no seat. The other children are half ticket, Lin Lan is full, Han Qingsong is free, and the total cost is not bad.
Lin Lan was naturally very happy, and was particularly enthusiastic about Director Han.
…
Mai Sui and Erwang also went to find a good educated youth. If their home is in the provincial capital, they can help carry things along with them. In addition, anyone who has saved tickets and wants to buy rare things can also help. Yearning for high-end goods in big cities has always been the case since ancient times. If anyone goes out, everyone is envious and takes the opportunity to ask for help.
Of course, if you only give it to people who have a good relationship with you, other people will naturally not be thankful.
Lin Lan brought the food stamps, money, and other provincial general-purpose vouchers saved at home, and asked Dawang to push 100 catties of grain to the grain management office to exchange some food stamps for use.
The poor family is rich, and if you go to a big city, of course, you have to take the children to a restaurant to see what it is like.
Good friends and relatives know that they are going to the provincial capital, and they all send a few dollars to help. This is also a practice, family and friends go out to everyone to join Chengyi.
Of course, the money will have to be repaid when it comes back.
Lin Mei and Mrs. Lin knew, and they collected money. Lin Mei also brought money to let Lin Lan see if she could buy a radio, even if it was more expensive without coupons. There is a radio at home, and you can also listen to policy news.
Lin Lan agreed.
Before dawn on the 7th, Lin Lan's family finished breakfast and took their lunch to the train station to eat. The weather is hot, and the vegetables cannot be kept, but boiled eggs, pancakes, and pickles are no problem.
Han Qingyun drove the carriage of the brigade to take the Lin Lan family to the county to take the train. The train is at 1:30 in the afternoon, and it is the same train as Sanwang to the area.
The children were all very excited, and Dawang quietly took his military medal and hid it in his trouser pocket.
Han Qingyun threw the whip, shouted the chant, and sang "The Train Rush Towards Shaoshan": "Woo~ rumble rumble rumble rumble..." This is a passionate revolutionary song, and the propaganda team often sings it, and the members have learned it.
The children immediately followed and sang together, "...The wheels fly, the whistle blows, the train runs towards Shaoshan, crosses the ridges and crosses the river, facing the Xiaguang thousands of roads, hey, facing the Xiaguang thousands of roads..."
There were members of the autumn harvest on the road, and when they heard them sing, they also sang loudly, and the tune of the train heading towards Shaoshan Chong floated along the way.
"The pine trees in Shaoshan are green and green, the red flags are flying on both sides of the Xiangjiang River, the red flags are flying, Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao, your teaching will always be remembered..."
It was only eleven o'clock at the train station, and they and Han Qingyun said goodbye and entered the station to wait.
At this time, the county train station was not big, and there were long wooden chairs in the waiting room, where the whole family could sit together.
At this time, the number of trains is small, and there is only one train from the county to the provincial capital, and there are still many people who are on business or have needs to go out, so the tickets are not easy to buy.
Han Qingsong's identity is there, so it is not difficult to buy a ticket. He originally wanted to buy a sleeper for Lin Lan and Xiaowang, but Lin Lan refused. They didn't get tired when they got into the car in the morning. They arrived in the provincial capital in less than seven hours, and there was no need to sleep in a sleeper. And their family of six, with five seats, just sat opposite each other.
They ate in the waiting room first, and saw that one of the ticket gates was full of people. There was still a lot of time to listen to the loudspeaker of the ticket inspector. The passengers were afraid of being left behind and crowded desperately one by one. . There are also those who don’t understand the first time on the bus, can’t find the ticket gate, or run to the wrong ticket gate and have to follow the train, or else I have two hours left, and I’m anxious when I see people lining up, no matter what. Rush over and get in line.
The ticket inspector was patient at first, but then he began to shout, "I will shout at the time, I will shout at the time, don't worry! What are you squeezing, what are you squeezing! The railings are about to burst!"
Mai Sui and Erwang went for a walk around, then came back and smiled at Lin Lan: "Mother, I can understand that sentence, 'What are you robbing, what are you in a hurry for, and you don't catch the train' haha."
Even if there is still time, the passengers are afraid that they will be thrown off by the train, and they squeeze as hard as they can, as if they cannot express their eagerness to take the train without squeezing.
Mai Sui was also excited and anxious. After all, it was the first time I took the train, so I wanted to go to the platform to see what it was like. But it was funny to watch others squeeze her, and secretly reminded herself not to make a fool of yourself, to be calm and polite, and never to embarrass your parents when you go out.
Dawang also went for a walk, looked at the scene inside and outside the waiting room, and learned about it. This is also his habit. No matter where he goes, he first observes the environment first.
Xiao Wang obediently stayed by Lin Lan's side, for fear of losing himself.
Han Qingsong leaned back on the wooden chair, with one arm behind Lin Lan's shoulders, letting her lean against him a little, so that she could relax.
She is telling Xiaowang the story of the Monkey King.
Just as he was talking, he saw Da Wang hurried over with a serious face.
Lin Lan dragged Han Qingsong: "Third brother, what's wrong with the eldest son?"
Han Qingsong glanced at it. At this time, Dawang had already called Mai Sui and Erwang back, with a wary expression on his face, as if he had seen enemy agents. He patted Lin Lan so she didn't have to worry, he went to have a look.
He walked towards Dawang, Mai Sui and Erwang came over and sat down, Mai Sui said nervously: "Mother, there are foreign agents."
Lin Lan: "Spy?" Is there still a spy who dares to sway
When she looked around, she saw two tall and dignified foreigners holding up machines to take pictures and videos. Their instruments were not the simple cameras of the photo studio and the propaganda department of the county revolutionary committee, but were specially used for photography.
Many people outside the train station were attracted by them, and looked at them curiously and shyly.
The two foreigners had big, long noses, big, deep eyes, curly hair, fair skin, and beards all over their faces. They were wearing jeans, sneakers, and plaid shirts tucked into their waistbands. They looked like Dressed differently from the people around you.
"Who are they? Are they spies?"
"foreign devil!"
Someone started to stir.
"What are they holding in their hands? Is it for souls?"
"It's said that the devil R was catching souls like this back then."
Lin Lan told the children not to worry, "That's a video camera, which is specially used to record movies. The other smaller one is a camera, which can take pictures of our family."
"Mother, why is it different?" The children were curious.
They went to the photo studio to take pictures. The camera was standing on the ground, there was a box covered with a cloth, and the head of the person who took the picture stuck in. It was taken like that, but it was not like they were carrying guns.
Lin Lan: "I've seen it in the newspaper. It's an advanced machine, and I can see it in big cities in the future."
Mai Sui was very curious and no longer afraid, she dragged Erwang and ran over to see the two foreigners.
Han Qingsong was negotiating with the two foreigners. Although he didn't speak foreign languages, he would gesture and ask to check his ID.
One foreigner was dealing with him, while the other was still videotaping. He saw two young men and women with fair skin and similar eyebrows, both in their teens. The girls were born as bright and attractive as roses, and they had a completely different temperament from the people at this time. The boys were also gentle, elegant and handsome. The two came over like a pair of golden boys and girls, and he immediately recorded the camera on them.
Mai Sui tilted her head to look at it, thinking it was strange, so she wanted to go over to see it.
Erwang stopped her and signaled her not to go there, in case there was danger.
At this time, Lin Lan also led Xiaowang over. She heard that the two of them were not speaking English, but Italian. She didn't know a word of this.
Da Wang also walked over to stand beside them, for fear that the two foreign devils would suddenly do something wrong.
Seeing this family, the foreigners who videotaped them even more, and kept recording them. From the big city to the countryside and small county, the eyes are all gray and dark. I didn't expect to see such a bright family at the train station.
They look very different from ordinary people in this era, but they are not obtrusive, and it is also very strange.
He recorded the young and handsome mother, the handsome but wary eldest son, the quiet and handsome second son, the beautiful and delicate younger son, and this little girl with smart eyes full of curiosity, and then turned the camera. , and recorded the tall and stern father over there, and while recording, he also introduced something.
Seeing his exaggerated expression, the people around him were even more surprised and curious, and it was strange that someone would still talk like this.
Mai Sui was not afraid because her father was there, so she went over to look at the things in the machine. She was shocked to find that her parents, brothers, and brothers were all inside, and she was startled immediately, her smart eyes widened, "Oh, what are you doing? Take us in?"
She reached out to grab it.
The foreigner was amused by her actions, and explained to her with a smile: "video recorder" in the broken Chinese he was learning and selling.
His Chinese speaking is very soft, and there are many turns. Mai Sui sounds like "showing his shirt", and he doesn't understand it anymore.
Han Qingsong had already negotiated with the old foreigner, checked their letters of introduction and identification information, and knew that it was the photographer from Italy.
Because he was not a spy, and there was an official certificate, Han Qingsong didn't care. He told Lin Lan and the children to let them relax and not be afraid.
Hearing that Dad said there was no threat, Mai Sui and Erwang let go and went over to look at the person's camera.
The foreigner was also curious about them, and communicated with them in his own very inauthentic Chinese. Mai Sui and Erwang Lianmengchai had a great conversation with him. Their clothes, language, appearance, machines, jobs, etc. all made the siblings extremely curious.
The foreigner also took a camera to take pictures with them, and took some pictures of Lin Lan and Han Qingsong, and took pictures of their family.
Lin Lan thought about it, the artist's masterpiece is no small matter, there must be something left behind. She gestured with them, expressing that she wanted photos, and asked them if they could send them to her after they were developed.
The foreigners were very happy and nodded repeatedly, saying OK, and Lin Lan wrote Han Qingsong's unit address to them.
The foreigner looked at it very seriously, and then put the note in his wallet.
When he saw Xiaowang carrying a harmonica on his back, he was very curious and motioned for Xiaowang to play one.
Xiaowang is not shy either, and when he picks it up, he says I love Beijing Tiananmen Square.
The two foreigners recorded everything with a video recorder and kept giving thumbs up.
At this time, four people came running outside the station. There were Chinese and foreigners. When they saw two foreigners, they rushed over. One of them said nervously in Italian: "Sir, why are you separated? We have already arranged the shooting location. please."
The ticket gate began to blow the whistle, and the Lin Lan family said goodbye to the two foreigners. Han Qingsong and Da Wang picked up their luggage and protected Lin Lan to the ticket gate.
Lin Lan looked back at the two foreigners, and it happened that they also waved back to her, so she smiled, and one of the foreigners raised the camera and clicked and left an image.
Mai Sui, Erwang and Xiaowang have been studying the foreigners. This is the first time they have seen foreigners, and everything about them makes people curious.
"How come their noses are so big and so long! Haha."
"My face is full of hair, does it look like Sun Wukong?"
"Look at their hair? The color is weird. Like a pile of hay."
Xiaowang: "I'll draw them and show them to the third brother."
During the ticket check, some passengers crowded desperately for fear that they would fall and be unable to catch the bus, and even those who had not yet had their turn crowded.
Xiaowang is not tall enough, and being squeezed inside, all he can see is other people's belts and buttocks, and he is desperate.
At this time, a large hand passed through his armpit and lifted him directly, letting him sit in his arms. Xiao Wang immediately went from the lowest altitude to the higher altitude, the air was much fresher, he put his arms around Han Qingsong's neck and smiled happily.
With Dawang Erwang leading the way, after Han Qingsong broke, Lin Lan and Mai Sui walked very easily.
Because they were in a hurry, there were still people with large and small bags of luggage, which ended up crowding at the door of the carriage, and no one refused to give in, and no one could get on.
Dawang and Erwang arrived at the door of the fifth carriage, and when they saw a few people crowding there desperately, they went up and dragged them down.
Erwang: "You let the one in front go up first, no one can go up if you are crowded here."
Seeing that Erwang was just a child, the man wanted to scold people, but when he met Dawang's cold eyes, he immediately held back the swearing words.
The people in front went up, and neither did the two brothers. They stood on both sides and waited for Lin Lan and Mai Sui to go up first. If anyone dared to crowd the two of them with one word and attack the other with indifference, then the passengers in their carriage behaved well. Get on the car.
Lin Lan and Mai Sui got in the car and found their seats first, and found three young people sitting on it.
A crooked forward hat and a big white mask showed only a pair of peach blossom eyes with a pair of inner hooks and outer hooks. Looking at it, he was three-pointed evil and three-pointed, and the whole person sat sideways on the two seats. The other two were sitting in the three seats, the outermost one was carrying an army green schoolbag, and was nibbling on melon seeds, and the skins of the melon seeds were flying around.
The three of them looked young, but their faces were grief-stricken.
Lin Lan: "Comrade, please take your seat. This is our seat."
The melon seed eater rolled his eyes, "You said yours is yours? Will you agree if you call it?"
Yo, is this a rogue
Lin Lan smiled, "If you can afford to ride on the train, you must be a person of status and status, you must have a face, right?" She saw that the three of them were not bad looking, and they were not poor if they were able to eat melon seeds with their fangs and claws. child.
Children from poor families seldom have such an outgoing and domineering temperament, even if they are bad, they are wilted.
"You, who are you calling shameless?" The young man wearing a crooked hat disliked being disturbed by others, and stood up as soon as he slapped the table. Taohuayan glanced at Lin Lan first, then locked the wheat ears.
He saw that Lin Lan and Mai Sui were like sisters, handsome and tender, those eyes with a hint of evil began to do evil, half leaned up and leaned towards Mai Sui, stretched out his fingers to pick her chin, "Little Man He looks pretty good."
"Clap!" There were two slaps, and Mai Sui and Lin Lan slapped him on both sides of the face.
White mask: "! Lying on the sun! These two stinky mothers..." He gestured to hit Lin Lan and Mai Sui.
Lin Lan pushed Mai Sui to hide next to the seat in front of him nimbly, leaving the battlefield to the men, while Da Wang and Er Wang in the back held the white masks on the small table in the middle with one arm.
"Lying day, lying day!" The white mask was going crazy.
The two young people sitting across from them quickly stood up to help, "Wo Ri, where did the local snake dare to beat your young master!"
The one outside threw a punch at Dawang, who turned his head to let him go, raised his hand and grabbed his arm and slammed it inward, squeezing the two of them into the seats and unable to get up. Dawang took advantage of the situation and sat down, pulling the strap of the man's schoolbag and twisting the two's arms directly.
The train seat was already narrow, so the two of them couldn't move.
Han Qingsong brought his young son over with his luggage and commented, "We have to start wrapping around the big arm and restrain the elbow joint, so that they can't break free."
The two people who had almost broken free were immediately twisted by Dawang and quickly re-bundled. Now they were all good, and the bundles were so strong that even the other arm was inconvenient to move.
The two of them: "..." Your mother, where is this crazy local snake coming from!
The one who was being held by Erwang had a little strength, and suddenly broke free. He was about to throw a punch to fight back, but Han Qingsong bent his knees on his waist, and immediately collapsed on the seat with a sore body. The space is too small, and Han Qingsong's long legs can't be used, so it is useless to tap with his knees, but it is enough to make the masked young man sad.
White mask: wow day!
The passengers on both sides applauded one after another. These three arrogant children may have acted on the road. They started scolding mothers since they got on the bus. Later, when the scolding was stopped, other people's children cried twice and they scolded people to shut up. If they didn't shut up, they would throw their children down. Although it's nothing to do with bad mouth, but bad mouth is enough to make people angry.
The flight attendants didn't know why and didn't dare to care about them, so they didn't show up.
"It's good now, the police are here, and they dare to be arrogant."
Xiaowang: "In summer, you are wearing a big mask. Is it hot?"
The white mask glanced at him, but when he met Han Qingsong's sharp eyes, he snorted and didn't have the same knowledge as the police.
They saw that Han Qingsong was wearing a uniform, with his stern eyebrows and serious temperament. At first glance, he was the most difficult thing to deal with in the police team, just like the smelly stones in the kennel, and it was not easy to mess with.
Sitting inside, the attitude is relatively mild, and he looks helpless, "Hey, this is our seat. We bought five seats for comfort. It's unreasonable for you to beat people when you come up."
Mai Sui took out the ticket and looked at it seriously, "Brighten your eyes and take a good look, don't be blind!"
One arm of the boy was tied, and the inside was laboriously fumbling in his pocket. Finally, he took out his ticket and glanced at it, "Wo Ri, we are in the 6th carriage! How did that bastard, Old Wang, buy the wrong one!"
The other two: "… "
Lin Lan: "Stop pretending, hurry up and drive here. If you have the ability to buy five tickets, why don't you buy a sleeper?"
"You think I don't want to?" The white mask was so angry that his eyes were red.
Han Qingsong motioned for Dawang to loosen his ties.
Dawang tugged at the strap of his schoolbag and loosened the knot. The two stood up in a panic, and hurriedly held the white masks to the No. 6 carriage.
Thinking that Lin Lan taught them to be humble and kind when going out, Xiaowang couldn't help feeling sorry for the parents of these three people, "Hey, they are so ignorant, they're so embarrassing for their parents, their parents are so pitiful."
The three staggered under their feet and almost fell into the aisle.
