Chapter 123, Arriving in Lancheng, the speechless family (please subscribe!)
July 21st, at 7:45 am.
Beijing Railway Station.
As the station staff took a small horn and started shouting to queue up to check tickets to get on the train, Chen Zijin, who had been in a stable mood before, suddenly collapsed a little. He ignored the eyes of the people around him and grabbed Li Heng's hand and said reluctantly:
"Be careful on the road, remember to think of me."
"good."
Li Heng was also reluctant to leave and took the initiative to hug her: "When I get there, I'll call you."
"Yes." It's hard to get together, but it's about to separate. At this moment, Chen Zijin's eyes were a little wet.
When the two of them said goodbye, Chen Xiaomi, who was standing by, handed him the letter of introduction issued by some units:
"I know you should be prepared, but these may be useful when you go to Gansu. You can use them as a backup."
The English teacher was indeed prepared, but under Chen Zijin's gaze, Li Heng accepted it, then thanked him, and left to the wicket with the English teacher and Zhang Zhiyong.
After passing the ticket gate, Li Heng turned around and looked at Chen Zijin in the crowd for a while, then waved his hand vigorously, and only turned around to the train after Chen Zijin waved his hand to respond.
I thought there were already many people at Shaoshi Railway Station, but compared with the people at Beijing Railway Station, wow! What a guy, that's a chicken, nothing counts. It's just a witch, right?
After spending all his efforts to find his hard bedroom, Zhang Zhiyong covered his head and asked, "Mr. Heng, how long does it take to go to Gansu in Beijing?"
Li Heng replied: "The distance from Shao City to Beijing is not much different, it will take more than 20 hours."
After listening, Zhang Zhiyong was powerlessly stuck in the bunk. He was lively and could not sit still. He wanted to stay in a small and confined space for so long, and it was a waste of time.
English teachers are different. Maybe because of their parents' divorce, she is used to being alone and is content with her leisurely look at the scenery along the way, and she doesn't have a rest until it gets dark.
At midnight, Li Heng, who was sleeping, was woken up by the English teacher. She was sitting on the edge of Li Heng's bunk and woke him up and said in a low voice: "Wake up."
Li Heng had not slept to death and was disturbed by external objects. He woke up instantly: "Teacher, what's wrong?"
The English teacher looked outside and his voice lowered again: "A few people were swaying repeatedly in this carriage just now, and it felt something was wrong."
Hearing this, Li Heng got out of bed calmly. After watching in the small aisle for a while, he really saw three people doing pickpockets. Two men and one woman, the woman was reaching out to touch an aunt's bag to get something out.
Seeing Li Heng suddenly appearing in the middle of the night, the three of them looked over. After a few seconds of stalemate, they saw Li Heng motionless, and the woman retracted her outstretched hand and left the car with her accomplices.
The English teacher was watching the heart pounding, and woke up his heartless eyes, "Why are you afraid that they will cause trouble for you?"
Li Heng shook his head: "Often I don't know, even if I look for it, I'm not afraid."
Zhang Zhiyong touched his head and said, "That's it! We have been fighting all the way in the first day of the New Year, afraid of being a ovum!"
Wake up, Zhang Zhiyong volunteered to watch the night, touched a bag and sat on a small stool outside, with his eyes bulging around.
Wang Runwen couldn't sleep either, so he raised his hair with his right hand and asked him: "I didn't understand why you said you didn't get into Peking University, so you went to CUHK. Now I understand a little, are you afraid of being bound by Chen Zijin? Or is there any other girls you like in addition to Song Yu?"
Damn it, it's so amazing!
A guess!
But Li Heng certainly couldn't admit it, he just said vaguely: "Actually, it's the same for me wherever I go to college, and it doesn't affect my writing.
The reason why I don’t want you to help me is that I don’t want you to be a teacher because I owe my best friend a favor."
The English teacher said disdainfully: "What a big deal, if you don't go to Peking University, I think you are just a coward."
Besides, I am alone, but it is better to owe favors to Shuheng. I can get closer to me."
After hearing her mention Yu Shuheng several times, Li Heng couldn't help but ask curiously: "Where is your best friend now?"
The English teacher asked ruthlessly: "What are you asking about this?"
Li Heng was speechless: "I'm just curious."
The English teacher hand-written his chest, "Stop being curious! Inquire less! He's 8 years older than you."
Li Heng was dizzy and replied: "Look at what you said, what do you mean? With Song Yu and Zi Jin here, why do I want other women to do?"
I silently added in my heart: Yes, Comrade Xiao Han, I will feel wronged you first.
Seeing that he didn't blush, his heart was not beaten and he even mentioned the names of two girls. The English teacher looked contemptuous: "Haha, if I were Song Yu, I wouldn't give you any chance."
Li Heng stretched and said, "I don't know who came to Beijing with me. Forget it, I'll come to Gansu."
The English teacher was angry and after a while, he squinted his eyes and said, "Don't put gilds on your face. The teacher is afraid that he will not have the chance to go far in the future, so he has time to come out and have more time to go out."
The two of them talked all the way, and occasionally they fought each other, but time passed very quickly. When the hour hand turned to noon the next day, the provincial capital Lancheng finally arrived.
Zhang Zhiyong kept jumping in the crowd, "Mr. Heng, you said someone would come to pick you up. You have never met you. Do you recognize that person?"
The English teacher also had this kind of doubt, but he didn't ask.
Li Heng said: "It's okay, the other party said he would wait for me at the exit. The woman was wearing red clothes and the man was wearing gray mid-dressing, and all wore glasses."
I heard that Zhang Zhiyong jumped more frequently, and he complained while jumping:
"Damn! What do northerners look like? Why are they taller than me? Forget about men, I see many women taller than me."
By the way, being stupid is not short in the south, but it is really not enough to see in the north.
Li Heng 178 is considered tall in the south, but when he comes to the north, he is generally speaking, there are many shorter than him, and many taller than him.
"Hey, Li Heng, are they those two?"
Just as Li Heng and Zhang Zhiyong were talking with their mouths, the sharp-eyed Wang Runwen saw a girl in red holding up a sign.
The sign says: Li Heng! Li Heng!
The name is very big and written in a thick black brush.
The woman in red is tall, with a foot of 170, and looks average, but she has an unruly wild aura all over her body. Her surname is Li, and her name is Li Ran.
Li Heng has suspected more than once that Aunt Zhao Jing has found a man named Li as her husband because she can't forget Comrade Li Jianguo?
In his previous life, he and Li Ran were very familiar with each other.
How familiar is she? After a dinner party, she did not hand over a bottle of water as usual, but instead replaced the water with a condom.
Li Heng looked confused at the time and looked up and asked, "What's going on? Did you pay the wrong one?"
Li Ran said without hesitation: "No, I broke up with my ex. Now I can't find a bedmate for a while. I need it again, why don't you work hard?"
Li Heng thrust his face, "How many boyfriends have you changed?"
Li Ran said arrogantly: "I haven't counted it carefully, there are seven or eight, don't look at me with this kind of eyes. My desire for men is like news and current affairs. I pursue freshness, and change it if I get tired of it."
By the way, her essential job is to be a journalist and she also loves archaeology.
Li Heng was so scared that he ran away in panic. He didn't meet again for several years. It was not until she sent an invitation saying that she was going to get married that she went to attend the wedding.
That time, he took Xiao Han there.
After seeing Xiao Han, Li Ran joked openly: "I understand a little now, no wonder you don't want to touch me."
Anyway, this girl is not a good guy. I guess there are 10 men in the front and back. Her husband was as weak as her father, and became a veritable medicine jar.
"Li Heng?"
Looking at Li Heng who was walking straight over, Li Ran shook the sign in his hand and asked with big eyes open.
"It's me." Li Heng nodded, then told the other party about the phone, which was a code word, and then introduced the English teacher and Zhang Zhiyong.
After saying hello to the English teacher and the slutty, Li Ran pulled over the man next to him, "My university senior, now my fiancé, Sun Aimin."
Sun Aimin greeted the three of them enthusiastically and cheerfully.
When Li Heng shook hands with the other party, he felt a little sympathetic. Sun Aimin recognized him. Li then got married, but the other party was not married. It is said that later he often led a team to go to the deep mountains and forests to get archaeology, and was not very enthusiastic about major marriage events.
Li Ran’s family was in the suburbs of the city, even in the countryside. When Li Heng arrived, it was almost dark.
"You, are you Li Heng?" Zhao Jing picked them up at the intersection and asked Li Heng, who was very shocked in the crowd.
Li Heng smiled and said, "Hey, it's me, auntie has good eyesight."
Zhao Jing circled around her, "Which is my good eye-catching? I can recognize you when you were young."
Next was the process of introducing the understanding between the two parties. When they returned to the house, Zhao Jing said:
"I have prepared the meal. You guys have been traveling for so long, so you should be hungry. Come on, come and sit at the table."
There are 9 bowls, 6 Hunan cuisine, and three Gansu local dishes on the table, including meat and vegetable, and very hard.
The rice was also eaten.
During the meal, Zhao Jing took Li Heng to ask about her well-being. When she learned that Tian Run'e concealed Li Jianguo's condition from her, she remained silent for a long time and finally sighed:
"Run'e is still the same, not the bad news. If she had known that Jianguo was in poor health, I would have to go back to see him no matter what she said."
Li Heng was secretly complaining, forget it, my mom is afraid that you will visit our dad.
Later, he caught Li Jianguo and asked a lot of questions. Li Heng did not answer truthfully, but just picked up what he could say.
After dinner, Li Heng and the other two went to the inner room to visit Li Li, who was ill in bed, who was Zhao Jing's husband.
Seeing someone coming to see him, Li Li, who was originally drowsy, opened his eyes slowly, stared at Li Heng for a long time and said, "You are Li Jianguo's son, right?"
Li Heng nodded and said yes.
Li Li looked at him again, and later said weakly: "It's time to come. I have no regrets if his son can come to see me."
This was said inexplicably, and Li Heng's mind was full of mud.
It was not until half an hour later that Li Ran helped him solve his doubts: "My mother can never forget your father. She often treats him as a spare tire, including the matter on the bed, so he always feels that he is in vain."
This is Li Li.
Having said that, Li Ran was afraid that Li Heng would not get used to it, so he added: "Don't be dissatisfied. I just talk like this, straightforward and don't like to hide it.
He has been ill for several years, and we have been reluctant to leave life and death. He has been indifferent to it until now. He can't talk about any sadness. Don't think it's weird."
As the saying goes, if you have a long illness, you will not have a filial son. Li Heng can naturally understand the transcendence and open-mindedness of their family.
Zhao Jing helped the three of them arrange a room, but did not sleep at Zhao's house, but followed Li Ran to a building next door. The others didn't explain why, so the three of them were too lazy to ask, just have a clean place to rest.
