Lin Nianhe left a note for Su Yuncheng, specifically stating that he went with Wang Shumei and Wen Lan. He did not dare to write down the reason in detail, only saying that the captain asked them to do something.
She asked Uncle Liu about the time Su Yuncheng would be back. When she learned that he would not be back until tomorrow, she wrote to call him at noon tomorrow. If he hadn't come back by then, she would call him again at five o'clock in the evening. he.
After leaving the car and leaving a note, Lin Nianhe said goodbye to Uncle Liu and went to the train station.
Wang Shumei and Wen Lan were waiting for her at the entrance of the train station. As soon as they saw her, they rushed over from left to right, dragged her and ran towards the station.
"Quick, quick, quick, this is the only train for today!"
"Hurry up, we'll be driving in ten minutes!"
Lin Nianhe ran wildly with them and forgot to ask them what kind of tickets they bought.
They don't have the connections in this area, so it's impossible to buy a sleeper berth, which is probably a hard seat.
As a result, Lin Nianhe got into the car and was told——
"Seat? What are you thinking about? This is the special line for educated youth. Mei Zi took a letter of introduction and begged for a long time before they sold us three standing tickets!"
Lin Nianhe was stunned.
Standing ticket?
Stand for four or five hours?
Is it too late for her to get off now?
Too late.
The train left.
Lin Nianhe looked out the window and gave up the idea of jumping out of the car.
You may not die if you stand for four or five hours, but if you jump down, the whole village will be fed.
Wang Shumei comforted her: "Okay, let's go look for it. Maybe there will be an empty seat."
Lin Nianhe was desperate: "Didn't you say this is the information hotline? Are there any empty seats?"
"Uh...what if?"
With a glimmer of hope, the three girls started looking for seats.
After walking through three carriages in a row, I didn't see an empty seat.
Lin Nianhe said: "How about we ask the conductor for some newspapers and sit on the ground for a while?"
"Hey, Hezi, Meizi, there's an empty seat over there!"
Wen Lan, who was walking at the front, suddenly excitedly patted Wang Shumei's thigh.
Wang Shumei: "..."
But it's good to have a seat, and the three of them immediately walked towards the empty seat Wen Lan said.
It was a four-seater at the end of the carriage, and there was only a girl sitting with her head down reading a book.
Wen Lan trotted over and asked, "Comrade, is there anyone here?"
"No, you sit down."
The girl said, raising her head.
Lin Nianhe initially felt that the girl's Beijing accent was particularly friendly. When she saw the girl's appearance clearly, her whole body instantly turned to stone.
This girl has a beautiful oval face, bright eyes and white teeth, and looks heroic.
When she saw Lin Nianhe, she was also stunned, and the book in her hand fell on the small table.
Wen Lan had already sat down next to the girl. Wang Shumei noticed Lin Nianhe's abnormality, pulled her and asked, "Nianhe, do you know her?"
Lin Nianhe blinked his eyes, his voice filled with disbelief: "Miss Guan, Guan?"
Isn't the person in front of me the eldest girl from the Guan family in Baishun Hutong that Xie Yufei longs for!
Guan Manling opened her mouth and smiled: "Lin Nianhe? What a coincidence."
She closed the book and made an inviting gesture towards the opposite side of her: "Sit down first."
Lin Nianhe stared at her and moved his stiff legs to sit opposite her.
Wang Shumei and Wen Lan looked at each other, and their eyes also fell on Guan Manling.
Guan Manling smiled at them and said, "Hello, my name is Guan Manling."
"Hello, my name is Wang Shumei."
"My, my name is Wen Lan."
Lin Nianhe waited for them to introduce each other, and then he couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Guan, are you... going to the countryside?"
She remembered that Guan Manling and Xie Yufei were the same age, but she went to school late and was still in her first year of high school this year.
Why did you go to the countryside?
Guan Manling smiled and said, "I joined the Corps and went to Beidahuang."
Lin Nianhe: "...!"
Wen Lan's eyes were full of envy: "Educated youth of the Corps? I heard that your salary is so high!"
Guan Manling said with a smile: "Including regional subsidies, it's about 40 yuan a month."
Wen Lan's eyes widened even more, and she couldn't help but mutter: "It's great. I don't have to worry about the train ticket home for the New Year."
Guan Manling smiled helplessly: "You don't have to worry about train tickets, but we have strict control. It's difficult to apply for family leave. It's not as free as you, the educated youth who jump in line."
Wen Lan wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Lin Nianhe: "Miss Guan, why do you want to go to Beidahuang?"
Even if Xie Yufei is annoyed, he won’t go to Beidahuang!
Guan Manling smiled sweetly and happily, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said softly: "I am in love with the platoon leader of the male platoon of the tenth company of the Corps, so I came to find him."
Lin Nianhe mentally mourned for Xie Yufei for three seconds.
Poor Xie Yufei, after they finished collecting the vegetables yesterday, he was still writing a letter to Miss Guan with huge black circles under his eyes.
The letter was not sent, and the girl already had a partner.
Seeing that Lin Nianhe was silent, Guan Manling's smile stiffened a bit. She asked, "Um... I heard that Xie Yufei also jumped in line at your commune. Is he okay?"
Lin Nianhe twitched the corners of his lips and said, "He is in the same team as me. He is not bad. He was still writing to you last night."
Hearing this, Guan Manling let out a long sigh.
She rubbed the book and said softly: "I wrote him a letter before I left and told him about the person I was dating, but I didn't say that I was going to Beidahuang. I was afraid that he would do something stupid."
Lin Nianhe breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Well, just let's talk about it. It's okay not to tell him. Our place is not too far from your place. If you don't know, he will run over to you as soon as his brain twitches, and then he will be there again." Gonna get you into trouble.”
Regarding Xie Yufei's unrequited love for Guan Manling, Guan Manling was really innocent. She never gave Xie Yufei a single positive response from the beginning to the end, and even told him "fuck you off" seventy-two times.
Just like that, Xie Yufei went to hang out in front of the girl's house when he had nothing to do. Guan Manling was already very kind by not calling the police to arrest the gangsters.
Lin Nianhe was silent for a moment, raised a smile and said, "Don't be stressed, I won't tell him that you are in Beidahuang."
If you don't tell Xie Yufei, it will be better for Guan Manling.
Other girls can go to Beidahuang for a partner. Mr. Xie's desire to compete is purely wishful thinking.
"Well, thank you." Guan Manling smiled.
She looked at Lin Nianhe, then slapped her forehead as if she suddenly remembered something, and immediately stood up and took her suitcase from the luggage rack.
She took out an oil paper bag from the box, opened it and handed it to Lin Nianhe. She smiled and said, "I brought jujube cakes from home. You have been in the countryside for so long, you must have missed this, right? Come on, eat it. A little bit."
The sweet fragrance of jujube paste filled the air. Lin Nianhe smiled and reached out to take a piece: "Thank you."
"It's okay," Guan Manling handed the oil paper bag to Wen Lan and Wang Shumei again, "You guys should try it too."
Under Guan Manling's repeated invitations, Wang Shumei and Wen Lan also took a piece.
Guan Manling herself took a piece of jujube cake and ate it slowly. Wen Lan was curious about the Corps, so she patiently told everything she knew.
Several girls talked, but no one mentioned Xie Yufei again.
Lin Nianhe looked at Guan Manling and couldn't help but sigh in his heart——
Leaving aside Xie Si’s unilateral love-break, it’s really a joy to hang out with my beautiful sister!
