Chapter 358 A Child Like Lu Kuisheng (Subscription)
Qingzhao Railway Station, the old-fashioned shed station hall is ventilated, the temperature inside is touching, the iron benches are icy cold, Lu Dong sat here for a while, feeling uncomfortable in the cold buttocks, so he simply came to the exit.
Liu Zaizhao quickly followed from behind.
For a small site at the county level, don't expect something as tall as an electronic display.
Lu Dong looked back at the big wall clock at the train station, it was already nine o'clock.
Because of the open lobby, he also saw the tallest building in the county not far from the train station.
With the opening of many commercial buildings in the university town, this is no longer the tallest building in Qingzhao, but at 12 floors, it is still the tallest building in the county.
The signboard of Hailong Building disappeared. After Yang Fugui and Ma Yunlai were sentenced, the building was taken away by the bank, and after auction, it was changed into the Millennium Dragon Hotel.
It is mainly engaged in catering and hotel accommodation business. It is said that it also docks with the county government and undertakes a lot of public reception business.
Lu Dong suddenly thought of Yang Guoqiang, don't come back when you go abroad, and don't return Qingzhao when you come back.
"It's almost here." Liu Zaizhao waited a little anxiously: "Will it be later?"
Even high school students know that it is normal for the train to be late. Lu Dong saw people coming to the station one after another, and reminded him: "Take care of your things, and turn your bag to the front. When you are going out, especially in crowded places, put your bag in front." It’s your bag, and it’s not your bag if you carry it on your back.”
"Oh." Liu Zaizhao hurriedly turned the small backpack on his back and put it on the front.
There are a lot of people gathered at the pick-up station, some of them are pick-ups, and the other part are taxi drivers.
After the meeting, it is inevitable that there will be a battle to grab customers.
Those who often hang out in this area should have formed a tacit understanding. Once someone chooses a certain driver, others will not fight for the deal again, otherwise there will not be enough fights every day.
A few girls under the age of twenty came over, wearing vests with a red cross, hanging badges, and holding pens and folders.
"Hello."
One of them fell in love with the young Liu Zaizhao at a glance, and put the folder in front of Liu Zaizhao: "We are from the Chinese Red Cross Society, and we are raising funds for deaf children. If you can give a piece of love, help Help them?"
Liu Zaizhao looked at the form on the folder. Someone wrote their name and contact information on it, followed by the amount of donation, ranging from five yuan to ten yuan.
Looking at the person on the other side, he has a badge and is wearing a red cross vest, which looks credible.
Liu Zaizhao opened the bag and was about to take out the money. Lu Dong had already noticed it, and raised his hand to hold Liu Zaizhao's bag.
"I don't have any money." Lu Dong waved his hand at the vest girl.
The girl in the vest didn't bother, and immediately went to find the next target. Anyway, there are many people at the train station, and there are always people who are overflowing with love.
Liu Zaizhao looked at the vest girl, then at Lu Dong, and asked in a low voice, "Is this a liar?"
Lu Dong said, "I don't know. If you want to donate money to help others, there are better channels."
There was the sound of a train entering the station. Looking from the exit, you could see a green leather truck coming from the west. As the long train gradually stopped, after the doors opened, many people came out one after another.
It's not yet the peak season of Spring Festival travel, and most of the people who get off the bus are students.
"My sister!" Liu Zaizhao waved excitedly into the station: "Sister, this way!"
It may be that they haven't seen each other for nearly a year, but Liu Zaizhao was very happy to see Liu Linlin.
Lu Dong also saw Liu Linlin. She hadn't seen her for almost a year, and her appearance changed a lot.
The hair that was grown last year has become longer now, and a long ponytail is tied at the back of the head. There is no red pimple on the fair face. As people approach, you can faintly see a few very light pimple marks. For women who have had severe acne breakouts on their faces, luck is good enough.
The ticket inspector at the railway station opened the iron gate of the exit, and people checked their tickets and exited the station one after another. Those taxi drivers rushed over to solicit passengers, and when they heard those with foreign accents, they even picked up the other party’s luggage and dragged it to the car, forcing People can only follow the past.
It doesn't matter how far you are, even the tallest building next to the train station can drag people for ten miles.
The train station on Qingzhao's side may take a few more years, after several times of governance, before the solicitors are banned from entering.
Liu Linlin lagged behind those who left the station, and when she came out, she was running low.
"Sister!" Liu Zaizhao rushed over to take the bag in her hand.
Liu Linlin smiled at her, looking at Lu Dong who was walking over, a little surprised.
Lu Dong stopped a taxi driver who wanted to grab Liu Linlin's trolley case: "This is my sister."
The driver will not make trouble in the station, and hasten to find the next person.
Lu Dong took the trolley case from Liu Linlin's hand: "Let's go, it's too messy here."
Liu Linlin and Liu Zaizhao followed Lu Dong, and the former asked, "Why are you here?"
I haven't seen each other for a year, and the Mandarin that Liu Linlin blurted out is much more standard than that of Lu Dong and Song Na.
Liu Zaizhao said first, "Brother Dong has a car. I heard you came back yesterday, so I came to pick you up together."
Liu Linlin was the same as before, she said softly, "Thank you."
"Our six-year-old classmate, how polite are you?" Lu Dong dragged the trolley case out of the station hall, walked towards the small parking lot in front of the station, and asked as he walked, "Walk all night?"
Listening to the familiar accent, Liu Linlin was kind and unfamiliar: "This train is slow."
The local train is much cheaper than the express train ticket. Although it is a bit crowded, fortunately, there is a seat ticket when you get on the train from the departure station.
When he came to the front of the car, Lu Dong opened the trunk, put the trolley case in, and pointed to the big backpack that Liu Linlin was carrying.
Liu Linlin quickly took off her backpack, handed it to Lu Dong, and looked at the black Santana curiously.
Obviously, I haven't seen him this year, and the old classmates have changed a lot.
Lu Dong closed the trunk and said, "Get in the car."
Liu Linlin didn't speak, got into the car silently, and watched Lu Dong drive out of the train station.
The people in the back seat didn't take the initiative to speak, and the atmosphere in the car was dull. Lu Dong asked while driving, "How long will you stay this time?"
Liu Linlin said: "Let's have a look, there are no accidents, wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month before leaving."
The car passed by Zhanqian Street, Liu Linlin looked at both sides of the street, except for one more tall building, the rest remained unchanged.
Compared with the ever-changing capital, the county in my hometown seems to have no development and seems to be stagnant.
I am used to seeing the busy traffic in big cities, but I feel that this small town is so quiet.
There were few cars on the roadside, few high-rise buildings, and people walked leisurely on the street.
Liu Linlin looked at Lu Dong, and said proactively, "The county has not changed much."
Lu Dong said: "As usual, the county has no money for construction for the time being, and a lot of public factories have collapsed. Just to solve these, the leaders probably have a terrible headache."
He walked out of Zhanqian Street and turned on the east-west road out of the county: "Even the Qingzhao winery has been reorganized, and batches of people have been laid off."
"En." Liu Linlin responded.
These things are far away, and I don't know how to talk to them for a while.
Lu Dong immediately realized that Liu Linlin didn't know much about the topic he was talking about, so he asked instead: "You work in the capital, what do you do?"
"At first I worked as a tutor for a while, and then I did training." Liu Linlin didn't ask her family for a penny this year, so it was not easy: "I work part-time, so I can only use my spare time..."
She touched the car door and asked, "How is your business?"
Lu Dong said: "It's good to start a small company in partnership with someone, with the support of elders, and in the local area."
Liu Linlin nodded silently. When communicating with Lv Dong, Lv Dong didn't say much about it, just like the answer just now, basically just mentioned it in one sentence.
Liu Zaizhao suddenly said: "Sister, people in our village who married into Lu's Village said that Brother Dong earned millions this year."
"Have you started your business?" Liu Linlin had seen some markets in the capital, although Wanwan was a little surprised, but not shocked.
Lu Dong said casually: "It's all numbers on paper, meaningless." He changed the topic: "In two days, the alumni association of Qingzhao No. 1 Middle School, a university city organized by Wen Yue and Yuan Jing Are you going to a party?"
Liu Linlin asked, "Is it next Monday?"
Lu Dong replied: "It should be, I haven't asked Wen Yue carefully yet."
Liu Linlin said, "The principal called me. There will be an event at the school and he wants me to speak at the conference."
Lu Dong immediately understood: "This is for you to cheer up the students of No. 1 Middle School."
Bypassing the bridge hole of the expressway, Santana gradually approached the intersection of Liuwan, and hadn't come back for nearly a year. Liu Linlin fell into complete silence, looking at the distant village through the car window, not knowing what she was thinking.
Going home, for others, can be a blessing.
Liu Linlin didn't know what she would face when she went back.
Liu Zaizhao grabbed his sister's arm and didn't speak.
Thinking of Liu Mingquan, Lu Dong didn't know what to say. Outsiders couldn't understand this mess.
Arriving diagonally across from the brigade yard in Liuwan Village, Lv Dong stopped in front of an open gate. Liu Linlin glanced at the swallow's nest on the edge of the gate, opened the door and got off.
Lu Dong also got out of the car and took the luggage from the trunk.
The sound of opening and closing the car door alarmed the family, and Liu Mingquan came out with a middle-aged woman.
"You're back?" Liu Mingquan's attitude was not bad.
Liu Linlin nodded: "I'm back."
After receiving the trolley case and backpack that Lu Dong had taken down, Liu Linlin wanted to invite Lu Dong into the house for a drink, but she was afraid that Lu Dong would see an embarrassing scene.
Liu Mingquan said, "Go home first."
Liu Linlin was pulling the trolley case, and Liu Zhaodi was walking towards the door with a backpack in one hand and another bag in the other.
"Thank you." Liu Linlin turned her head and said to Lu Dong.
Lu Dong smiled: "It's okay, we have been classmates and friends for many years."
The two sisters didn't speak any more, and went home with their luggage.
Liu Mingquan didn't leave, and asked Lu Dong, "Go in and drink some water?"
Lu Dong hastily declined: "I won't go, Uncle Quan, there are still things to do in the village."
Liu Mingquan walked a few steps closer, touched Santana and said, "Lu Dong, I heard that you bought a car a long time ago, it's amazing!"
Lu Dong said modestly: "I am the light of the village."
Liu Mingquan looked at Santana again, patted Lu Dong on the shoulder and said, "Come and play when you have time, you and Zhaodi's old classmates, don't need to see outside."
Lu Dong responded casually, took his leave and got in the car to leave.
Liu Mingquan kept watching Santana go away.
Liu Wan is close to Lu's Village and has been intermarried for many years. Liu Mingquan has a general understanding of Lu Dong's situation.
When Santana left the village, Liu Mingquan sighed: It would be great to have such a son!
