Several times in dreams

Chapter 162
During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Chunshan and Yuhui moved back to Xiangjiang from Shandong. Since the holy city was too small and there was no school, they went to work in Haixi City, a two-hour drive away from the holy city.

Yuhui was afraid that her mother would be disappointed, so she carefully explained the current situation she was facing, but Meng Wanying was very happy. She arrived home in two hours by train, and she lived in Haixi, which happened to be some distance away from the right and wrong of her hometown. Isn't this just right? ?
Yuhui knew that her mother was always considerate and didn't want to cause trouble for others, especially her own daughter. No matter what she did, she would say yes.

The family packed their bags. Meng Wanying made all the chickens she raised into roasted chickens. She left two hens that were laying eggs and left them to Xiao Nan's family. The two children needed nutrition too much.

On the day before leaving, many teachers came to see them off. Teacher Qu was really reluctant to give up, holding Yuhui's hand and crying. Jiang Ziyang and Liu Yanli also came downstairs to see them off.

After several years of working together, the couple stopped fighting. Liu Yanli gave birth to another daughter for Jiang Ziyang. She is already three years old and still loves Jiang Huaiying very much. The family is harmonious and beautiful. Jiang Ziyang has already started playing the accordion again. sang.

Life is like this, there are ups and downs, bumps and bumps, and in the end you always run towards a happy place.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the family sat on the train going north. This time was different from two years ago. The whole family was determined. This was a journey home. The 20-year wandering career was finally coming to an end this time. up.

With a sound of "stab", Meng Wanying tore open the greased paper bag, grabbed the chicken leg and pulled it hard, "Here! One for each person!" Meng Wanying distributed the chicken legs to Zhang Xueqing and Zhang Xiangxiang.

I gave Yuhui and Zhang Chunshan two pieces of good meat from the chicken breasts, and picked some corners to eat. Suddenly, the car was filled with a tempting aroma.

"Mom! You gave us all the good meat, and you ate your neck and ribs!" Yuhui felt sorry for Meng Wanying.

"I'm old, I can't eat anymore!" Meng Wanying smiled wryly, she was almost 70 years old, her appetite was getting worse day by day, and there were three roast chickens in the paper bag, how could she be so frugal.

Since it was the Spring Festival, there were not many passengers in the train, and everyone who should go home went home for the New Year. Except for Yuhui's family, there were only a few passengers who went out temporarily.

"Hello, comrades passengers, now the dining car serves dumplings, comrades in need, please come to the dining car to eat!" The news of the lunch service came from the radio.

"I'll buy two and take them back to eat." Zhang Chunshan got up and walked towards the dining car.

"I've already eaten dumplings on New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year. Don't waste money, just buy two less for the children!" Meng Wanying is used to saving. I bought pancakes and bought cakes and bread for the two children, enough to eat on the road.

"Mom! We have to eat something warm on the way. Although we brought a lot of food, they are all cold and dry. Buy some fresh food to eat with it!" Yu Hui smiled.

"You're right, life is better now, income is stable, and supplies are sufficient. It's not like in the past when you couldn't eat what you wanted. I am afraid of poverty, and I am afraid of starving my children!"

Meng Wanying laughed herself, thinking of the most difficult time before liberation, when the whole family had only half a bag of food. It was really hard at that time, and people would starve to death at any time.

Now it's better, you can eat whatever you want, and you don't have to worry about not being able to eat anymore. Even a few years ago, Ruirui saw Duan Xiaoru's TV when she went to Beijing, and now she has bought it for her own home.

Speaking of the TV, Zhang Xueqing was even more moved. In the past two years, among the teachers in the school, only Mr. Huang, who taught mathematics, had one in his home. Every Saturday night, the children did not go to school the next day, so they ran to Mr. Huang. Watch TV at home.

Teacher Huang's lover is really good-tempered. There is a room full of noisy children. She has never been impatient, and she often brings out small snacks to entertain the little guests.

One year during the summer vacation, Zhang Xueqing was obsessed with learning English. Every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday morning, there was a channel with introductory English lectures. No matter how busy the family was, Mrs. Huang would turn on the TV on time and wait for Zhang Xueqing to study.

Last year, she also bought a TV set at home. Zhang Xueqing no longer has to bother Teacher Huang, but she will never forget Teacher Huang's gentle smile and her sincere encouragement.

"Mom! Now that the reform and opening up have been implemented, life will be better one day, so you can't believe it!"

"Believe it! Believe it!" Meng Wanying smiled comfortably.

While talking, Zhang Chunshan had already bought dumplings, and the whole family had lunch on the train lively.

Unknowingly, two days and one night passed. They had to transfer trains at Xuzhou Station and stayed for two hours. In order to save time, Yuhui took her mother and children to find a sheltered place on the platform without leaving the station.

Zhang Chunshan said that they had something to do, and asked them to wait where they were. They had been away for a long time and did not come back. Seeing that the train would arrive in half an hour, Yuhui was furious, and Zhang Xueqing was also anxiously looking around.

"My dad won't be unable to get on the bus, right? What if we miss the bus?" Zhang Xiangxiang was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Don't worry, your dad is an old railway, so he can't miss the train! Even if he misses it, he can find a way to go back by another train. Are you worried that I won't be able to take you to Haixi?"

In the past two years, Yuhui followed Zhang Chunshan a few times, and she became more and more determined in her heart that with her own ability, she would definitely be able to take good care of her mother and children.

"I'm back!" Zhang Xueqing's sharp eyes saw Zhang Chunshan running from a distance with two paper bags in his arms.

"Father! I'm worried about you! I'm afraid you won't catch the train." Zhang Xiangxiang said while grabbing Zhang Chunshan's coat.

"No! I'm waiting for the buns to come out of the basket. The buns here are very delicious. Every time I pass by Xuzhou Station, I have to go to his house to buy them. There is often a long queue at his house."

"You just know how to eat! I was wondering if there is something urgent to get out of the station?" Yu Hui scolded.

"I just want to let you taste all the good things I've eaten! Before the car arrives, eat it while it's hot!" Zhang Chunshan took two buns and handed them to the children.

Zhang Xueqing follows Zhang Chunshan the most, and has always been deeply impressed by eating, drinking and having fun. In her 14 years of life, she has never eaten such delicious buns.

Meng Wanying only made meat buns once, with more than half of the cabbage mixed in. Even so, Zhang Xueqing thought it was extremely delicious. In those days, meat was a precious commodity.

The buns bought by Zhang Chunshan were actually filled with pure meat. They were small bites, with thin skins and lots of fillings. The thin skins were permeated with red sauce. Zhang Xueqing devoured them, thinking to herself, the world is really big , so delicious!

On the morning of the third day, the family finally arrived at their destination—Haixi City.
