Fengcheng old events

Chapter 50

Just like that, Liu Jinrong left the school.

After staying at home for a few days, my heart calmed down. I played with the dog, looked through the books, and helped Zhang Jingyi cook and sew clothes.

Most of the classmates in the castle also came back one after another.It's so far away from home, there's not enough to eat, and there's no one to teach me, so it's better to go home and have a hot kang head.

Parents are happy when they get home, and there are more people to work with.What's the use of going to school for rural people, and literacy can't fill their stomachs.

A few classmates get together when they have nothing to do. This time they are not reading, reading, doing quizzes and playing games. They are all holding sewing clothes, talking and working, or knitting sweaters.

It seems to have grown up all at once.

At the end of November, there were several snowfalls in a row, and the branches of the trees were broken. Several pigpens on the Nangou side collapsed, and several houses in the fort were crushed by the snow. The team called for help. Zhang Wanli went and came back and said that the old lady of the Jin family had froze to death and collapsed in the middle of the night, buried in snow.

Her family's children didn't know where they went, and only an old lady lived alone.

Liu Jinrong has been worried about this matter for a long time, and wakes up every day when he sleeps, and looks around the house during the day.

Zhang Wanzhi just laughed and said, "It's okay, our house is strong. Look at those two girders, they are thicker than you, and they won't collapse."

Only then did Liu Jinrong feel relieved.

In December, the sky stopped and the weather was sunny. Zhang Wanli and Zhang Wanzhi started to go into the mountains again, and Zhang Jingyi followed, leaving Liu Jinrong and Xiaobaigou to watch the house.

"Wow, woof woof. Um, woof woof."

The little white dog bared its teeth and growled in the yard. Liu Jinrong was on the kang, leaning over the window and looking out. The yard was too long to see the door.

Every day in the mountain valley remains the same. There are dozens of families all over the world who are busy with their lives and have no time to visit.If a classmate came, he would directly open the courtyard door and come in, and the little white dog would not bark.

The dog is still barking.Liu Jinrong put down his needlework, put on his shoes, got off the ground, picked up the wooden pole supporting the door, and went out.

"Who?" The little white dog stopped barking, and ran over to have fun with Liu Jinrong, as if he had done a good job.

Someone outside the east gate of the courtyard responded: "Me."

Liu Jinrong was stunned for a moment: "Zhang Qingzhi?" He put down the pole and walked over, opened the courtyard door, and it was indeed Zhang Qingzhi.

Wearing a green military uniform and a military cotton cap, he appeared at the gate of the yard with a smile.

"Are you going to be a soldier?" Liu Jinrong looked Zhang Qingzhi up and down.

"Well, it's been almost two years. That year I went to the army when I went to my brother. The army is tightly controlled, and there is no vacation, so I can't write to you."

Liu Jinrong pouted, looked at Zhang Qingzhi and said, "You can't write, right?"

Zhang Qingzhi smiled stupidly: "I came back yesterday, and I can stay at home for ten days. I will come today to see you. It hasn't changed."

Liu Jinrong grabbed a piece of bark from the gate of the courtyard and held it in his hand: "How can that change? It's not like you have been away for ten or eight years. You have changed a little, and you have become more energetic. Is the army fun?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "It's okay, there are many people, and everyone is together. You can eat enough and have meat. You have to work and train every day."

Liu Jinrong turned his head and glanced at the yard. The big tabby cat came back, and the little white dog was flopping under the window sill trying to go up to play with the tabby cat, but the tabby cat didn't even look at it.

"My parents are not at home, so you will not be allowed to enter the hospital. Do you drink hot water?"

Zhang Qingzhi smiled and wiped his nose: "No, that's all, it's good. I heard you can't learn anymore?"

Liu Jinrong nodded: "There is no one to teach. There are meetings every day, and there is no food. It's good to come back and help my mother with work."

Zhang Qingzhi said: "It's also very good, and there must be someone to take care of the family. What is your brother doing?"

Liu Jinrong said: "I'm in the tree cultivation circle, and I don't usually come back. When do you leave? Why don't you stay at home for the New Year?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "You can stay for ten days, you can't wait for the Chinese New Year, you have to be disciplined. It will be fine if you wait for next year. There is also a vacation in summer. It is said that you can go back twice a year."

Liu Jinrong asked: "Where do you serve as a soldier? What kind of soldier?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "Now in Hebei, the railway soldiers are repairing railways."

Liu Jinrong said: "Is it really possible? Can you repair it? Are you tired of repairing train tracks?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "I'm not tired. I just dig mountains and build holes. I have tools for work. I'm in charge of electricity."

Liu Jinrong sighed: "It's great, I can go to so many places. Now I even forget what my hometown is like."

Zhang Qingzhi said: "Wait, when it gets warmer, you go to the army to play, and I will accompany you."

Liu Jinrong rolled Zhang Qing's eyes: "What's the matter with me going to the army?"

Zhang Qingzhi laughed a few times, and said: "The troops live well, they are all red brick and tile houses, and they eat rice every day, white flour steamed buns, stews are meat and vermicelli, and there are big trucks to sit on when going out. You can go into town and go to the mall, and you can watch movies.”

Liu Jinrong yearned a little: "I haven't been to the city for many years, and I don't know what it's like."

Zhang Qingzhi said: "When I go back this time, I will write to you and tell you about the things outside. If you, if you want to go, write to me, and then take the train, and I will pick you up at the station."

Liu Jinrong said: "I don't even know where to take the train, but I know there is a train station in the commune. How long will it take?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "You have to change trains, there is no one that can drive directly to the place." He pointed to the northwest: "Go down from that bar, there is a stop at Songshutai, take a bus in BX City, change trains to BJ, and then change from BJ The car sits with us."

Liu Jinrong's eyes widened: "It's so far away? I can't find it. I haven't even taken a train by myself. Have you ever been to BJ?"

Zhang Qingzhi scratched his head: "I haven't been there, it's just a car passing by."

Liu Jinrong said: "You are already there, why don't you take a look? How stupid."

Zhang Qingzhi said with a smile: "Wait for you, wait for you to go, I will accompany you to see and take pictures in Tiananmen Square."

Liu Jinrong was happy, and rolled his eyes pretending not to care, "Are you in the army, are you making money?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "There is an allowance. There are more than ten yuan a month."

Liu Jinrong thought for a while and said, "Which station is Benxi? I ​​remember that there is Benxi Lake, and Mengjiabao. There is also Fujin."

Zhang Qingzhi said: "It is Benxi Station. It used to be Mengjiabao, but now it has been renamed. It has been changed a long time ago."

Liu Jinrong sniffed and rubbed his hands: "I can't even remember."

Zhang Qingzhi took off the military gloves and put them on Liu Jinrong's neck: "You wear them, it's warm."

Liu Jinrong put his hand into the glove, and the warm rabbit fur touched his hand, feeling very comfortable: "What about you?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "I will send it to the army, no money."

Liu Jinrong looked at the gloves: "It's great to be in the army. Why are these three fingers? This is the first time I've seen them."

Zhang Qingzhi said: "Those who shoot the gun use that finger to shoot the gun."

Liu Jinrong opened his eyes wide: "Have you ever fired a gun?"

Zhang Qingzhi nodded and said, "I've fought, I'll fight again, I still have to compete, and those who play accurately should be praised."

The cold wind was howling, and the pine forest on the mountain on the other side of the river made a whining sound in the wind, but at this moment, at the gate of this yard, two young people seemed not to feel the cold, and whispered through the gate talking.

The little white dog has run back and forth in the yard countless times.

……

Liu Jinrong didn't know when Zhang Qing came and left. He only knew that he floated back into the house happily, and almost ruined his dinner.

The No.14 Division of the Railway Corps, she firmly remembered the name in her heart.
