Chapter 209： full of sense of age

Chapter 209 full of sense of age

The waiting hall with a sense of age, wooden chairs, and people carrying big sacks or bags everywhere.

In the waiting hall, there is no place for chairs at all, and everyone sits on the ground with their luggage.

Some went out with their children, and some old couples supported each other.

All kinds of people were in a hurry, their faces were uniformly sallow, sallow and thin, and their clothes were patched and patched. There were only a few well-dressed and slightly better-looking.

During the hottest summer, Lin Xue couldn't stand the smell in the waiting room.

"Let's go, let's go out and find a place to wait!" She glanced at the watch on her wrist, saw that the time was still a while away, and led the two of them out of the waiting hall.

Fortunately, a few people bought sleeper cars, otherwise there must be many people in ordinary cars.

The three of them found a shady place to sit down. Within ten minutes, a young man sneaked up to them. When he got to the side of them, he opened his clothes and found that there were cigarettes inside.

"Comrades, do you want to buy cigarettes?" The young man didn't look like a salesman eager to sell, but he gave Lin Xue the feeling that it was their honor that he found them.

The fact is indeed the case. This guy is none other than Wang Cheng's subordinate, who is responsible for selling cigarettes at the train station.

He is really not worried about selling. Whenever he sees someone right, he will step forward and show the other party, and the other party will definitely pay for it.

Because he can look at people and see who can afford it and who can't.

Several times he was rounded up all at once, and there was not enough to sell.

Today, he immediately spotted these three people because two of them are young men. Young men are good-looking and like to show off in front of people. Moreover, these two people look well-dressed and carry new bags. There is also a lot of luggage, but unlike those ordinary people, their luggage is packed in jumbo bags, and their luggage is all in bags.

Lin Xue looked at the familiar cigarettes hanging on his clothes, and waved her hands, "Comrade, you can sell them elsewhere! We don't smoke!"

This is her person, she should be more polite to him.

But she was slapped in the face by Li Jianshe just after she finished saying this.

"Wait a minute, comrade, give me two boxes! How much?"

Li Jianshe exited, and Lin Xue couldn't stop her. Although she just replenished the goods yesterday, there is a lot of this kind of smoke, but she can't take it out!

"Comrade for twelve yuan a pack!" The young man quickly took down two packs of cigarettes to Li Jianshe, and told him the price.

Li Jianshe is speechless, it is really expensive, how many times more expensive than the supply and marketing cooperative?

However, he still painstakingly took out twenty-four yuan to the young man, and took away two packs of cigarettes.

Lin Xue was also dumbfounded. They sold it so expensive. This is for two dollars. She paid these people's wages alone, and she paid 10% to Wang Cheng, and they sold it so expensive.

Moreover, Wang Cheng never mentioned this matter to her.

She thought about the gap in the matter, the lad was gone.

Li Jianshe put away the two packs of cigarettes very preciously.

"Comrade Li Jianshe, I didn't expect you to still smoke?" Lin Xue asked curiously.

Only she can talk about other things when she comes back, and it's useless to think about it now.

"I can't afford to smoke. I bought this for my grandpa. His old man just likes it! Otherwise, I wouldn't be willing to spend so much money on this stuff! Grandpa must like it, because I have never seen this kind of cigarette in Kyoto." , but it’s really expensive!” Li Jianshe said in pain.

Lin Xue looked at Zhang Yuan, who nodded imperceptibly.

She wasn't talking either, even if she wanted to deliver it, she wouldn't be able to deliver it.

The three sat in the shade until the train entered the station and had to check the ticket before entering.

There are indeed many people, crowded with people, various noises, and children crying.

Lin Xue had nothing to take, so she took all the tickets for the three people. Zhang Yuan and Li Jianshe tacitly protected Lin Xue and walked forward slowly.

The three of them got on the train with difficulty, but the condition of the sleeper car was completely different from that of the hard seat! The people here are not crowded, follow the instructions of the train conductor, find your own bed, put your luggage away, and the people in the sleeper car look good in their clothes, many of them should be leaders or the like.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t buy a ticket for this carriage, so Lin Xue is very satisfied now.

The three of them had lower berths, 567 was next to each other, 56 was a compartment, and 7 was next to it. Li Jianshe spontaneously went to No. 7.

Put all the luggage under the bed. For the lower bunk, it is more convenient to put it under the bed.

Zhang Yuan and Lin Xue were in the same compartment on the two lower berths.

Lin Xue doesn't like the upper bunk, because getting up and down is troublesome, she can't lie down all the time, and the chairs in the aisle are uncomfortable.

Soon, the sleeping cars were full.

The upper bunks in their compartment are all young people, but there are no women.

Lin Xue was curious, if someone could sit in a sleeper car at such a young age, his family should be rich or powerful, right?

Stopped at Chenxi County Railway Station for half an hour, and the train started to run the mining pool.

Lin Xue looked at the scene that was quickly receding through the window glass. The countryside full of age, the dusty earthen houses, and the hardworking people all gave her an unreal feeling.

On a whim, she took out a pencil and drawing paper from her bag, actually from the supermarket space, and began to draw the scenery along the way.

Sleep full, eat enough food, drink enough water, and chat with Zhang Yuan... Now both of them are still in the embarrassing period, and they don't know what to say.

And as soon as he opened his mouth, he remembered the charming scene at noon, and the ecstasy between the two of them.

His hands had already reached for her collar, and the two of them really almost missed each other before stopping.

Zhang Yuan also sat on his bed, lowering his head and not daring to look at Lin Xue.

Just like that, Lin Xue began to paint while looking at the scenery.

Although she is not very good at drawing, she still learned to draw for two semesters in junior high school, so she is not so unreadable.

And the scenery along the road is not difficult to draw. Just like that, after more than an hour, Lin Xue's paper is full of sweaty working people.

Even the big stupid dog lying next to him couldn't escape Lin Xue's pen, and was drawn vividly.

Although Zhang Yuan didn't dare to look at Lin Xue, his eyes had already landed on her painting when she was concentrating on drawing on the paper.

Now that a painting is finished, he also walks out of the scene, amazed.

Little girl’s painting even shows the tiredness and helplessness on the faces of the common people.

There hasn’t been a drop of rain since the beginning of summer, and Chaoyang Commune has been watering the land non-stop.

The other places are pretty much the same. It doesn’t look like it’s raining here either. The people look tired, with despair mixed on their faces.

I can’t get enough to eat, and if there is no harvest, let alone food, I have to pay taxes.

This will kill the people.

After Lin Xue finished painting her own painting, she also looked outside with a heavy heart, and Zhang Yuan didn't know what to say for a while.

"Comrade! Your painting is really good. Are you a professional student of painting?"

While the two of them were watching the scenery in silence, a man's voice on the upper bunk sounded disturbing, calling both of them back to God.
