Pengcheng Railway Station.
Looking at the bustling crowd in front of her, Song's mother was obviously a little cautious, with scrutiny and defensiveness in her eyes.
Although Xiao Yang Xun on the side performed better, he was not much better.
After all, it was the first time for both of them to leave home thousands of miles away and come to a different place.
The attitude towards traveling abroad was completely different in the early 1980s and later generations.
The transportation at this time was still relatively backward. It took them nearly three days to take the train from Pengcheng to Anyun, which was relatively fast.
"Yang Xun!"
At this time, Xiao Yang Xun suddenly heard a familiar voice and saw 'Brother Dongbao' standing in the crowd, smiling and waving towards him.
"Brother Dongbao!"
Yang Xun shouted, and then quickly reminded Song's mother beside him.
"Auntie, look, Brother Dongbao is here!"
"Toho?"
"Where is Toho?"
Mother Song looked around, and then saw Li Jie under Yang Xun's guidance.
The moment she saw her son-in-law, Mother Song's expression obviously relaxed.
After a while, after the three of them met, Li Jie took the luggage from Mother Song's hands naturally.
"Mom, you have worked hard on this journey."
"It's not hard."
Song's mother smiled and shook her head: "Xiao Yangxun has had a hard time all the way. This time, thanks to him, he has been busy all the time."
"Yang Xun, you did a good job."
Li Jie patted Yang Xun's small body: "Stay here for a few more days this time, and I will lead you around Pengcheng."
"Um!"
Yang Xun nodded repeatedly. He didn't know much about Pengcheng until Li Jie came here and occasionally wrote to him.
Then, he saw the outside world.
In fact, Yang Xun wanted to work with Li Jie in Pengcheng, but when he thought about the old and young at home, he started to back off.
Pengcheng is too far.
If something happened to his family, he wouldn't be able to go back immediately.
Therefore, he did not mention coming to Pengcheng for development, but not coming to Pengcheng for development does not mean that he does not want to see the world of Pengcheng.
The policies and markets here are very open, and there are many novel things that are not available in inland areas.
Moreover, Pengcheng and Xiangjiang face each other across the sea. According to 'Brother Dongbao', the Xiangjiang side is more developed than the Pengcheng side.
After a while, Li Jie led the two of them to a car. When he opened the door and was about to let Song's mother get in, Song's mother froze on the spot.
After a while, Mother Song asked cautiously.
"Dongbao, did you drive this car?"
Li Jie nodded: "Yes, I bought the car from the factory."
"Public?"
Song's mother smiled and said, "Then your factory is really good at letting you drive the car out. This car is so beautiful."
After saying that, Mother Song took a few more glances at the car.
The shiny black car paint shines in the sun, so beautiful.
Hearing the word 'factory', Yang Xun beside him couldn't help but open his mouth.
The factory that 'Brother Dongbao' mentioned should be referring to the Walkman assembly factory, right?
In other words, 'Brother Dongbao' bought this car himself?
Thinking of this, Yang Xun was a little unbelievable.
'Brother Dongbao' has only been out for a year, and he already bought a car?
Is this too fast?
Although Yang Xun didn't recognize the Santana in front of him, the car was not cheap at all, at least it cost tens of thousands more.
There are more expensive ones, ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands.
'Brother Dongbao' is so awesome.
At the same time, Yang Xun's heart was shaken.
Do you want to stay in Pengcheng?
Yang Xun was not greedy. He didn't dare to think about a hundred thousand yuan, but he would be satisfied if he could make ten thousand yuan a year.
As for things at home?
When the time comes when you have money, just ask someone else to look after you.
On the way back, Xiao Yang Xun and Song's mother behaved exactly the same, both tilting their heads to look at the scene outside the window.
Cars are rare in Jinling County. You can see them everywhere on the roads in Pengcheng, and you can see them every once in a while.
In addition to cars, there are also buses and tricycles. The narrow road is very busy.
The place they were walking on was the main street, which was surrounded by stores. There were more people coming and going than they saw in a day in their hometown.
"It's so lively."
Mother Song sighed: "It deserves to be a big city."
"Mom, you stay here a little longer, and I'll take you out for a walk later."
Li Jie didn't mean to refute, but followed Mother Song's words.
In fact, Pengcheng is not considered a big city now. In terms of prosperity, it is even inferior to some county towns in later generations.
But compared to Jinling County, it is definitely lively enough.
With more people traveling from north to south, it will naturally become more prosperous.
Then, while driving, Li Jie introduced the situation on both sides of the street to the two of them. About ten minutes later, the car drove into a small courtyard.
Seeing the clean concrete floor in the yard, Song's mother didn't react for a while.
"Mom, we're here."
Mother Song pointed to the small house in front of her: "Do you live here?"
"um, yes."
Li Jie pointed to the three rooms in front of him: "These are all rooms. Mom, don't worry, the rooms will definitely be enough to live in."
the other side.
Hearing the sound of the car stopping, the newly invited aunt came out of the house.
Mother Song was very surprised to see a strange middle-aged woman.
"Dongbao, what is this?"
"Mom, this is the aunt our family invited."
Li Jie explained: "Aren't you worried that we can't take care of the children, so we asked someone to help."
Aunt Xie came closer and took the initiative to ask for the luggage from Li Jie.
"Dongbao, give me the stuff."
"sorry to bother you."
Li Jie handed over his mother-in-law's luggage. At this time, Song's mother still had not recovered from the shock.
invite?
Doesn’t that make a landlord wealthy?
Song's mother panicked when she thought of what she had experienced ten years ago. Song Yunhui's father was labeled a big hat because he was captured once by the national army.
The hat was so big that the whole family couldn't lift their heads.
Then, now my son-in-law has hired a helper.
Aren’t these landlords, wealthy people, and capitalists?
After the aunt left with her luggage, Song's mother quickly pulled Li Jie aside and asked in a low voice.
"Dongbao, what's going on with you and Pingping? Why did you recruit someone?"
"Looking for help is a waste of money. If anything happens, you will be in bad luck."
"In this way, if you feel like letting people go tomorrow, it will be fine as long as I am here."
Looking at the nervous mother-in-law, Li Jie sighed slightly.
The times.
It always brings something to people.
For someone like Song Mu, it was obviously a stress reaction.
Once bitten, twice shy.
"mom."
Li Jie explained patiently: "Don't worry about this, nothing will happen. It's different now."
Seeing that Song's mother was still worried, Li Jie immediately moved Song Yunhui out.
"We asked Xiaohui about this, and Xiaohui said it's okay."
Upon hearing Song Yunhui, Song's mother hesitated for a while.
"real?"
"real!"
