Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Taking a train is always an uncomfortable thing, especially the sound of wheels hitting the rails all the time outside the train window, coupled with the dull atmosphere inside the train, makes it even more depressing.

Fortunately, Li Aiguo still had something serious to do to pass these boring times.

"Orchid, the word is called rolling, rolling in the steel rolling mill."

Sun Lanhua never went to school. When she was in Shuangshui Village, Li Weidong taught her some words, so she had no problem living in the village.

If you really want to go to Beijing and become a temporary worker in a poverty alleviation workshop, you will still need to learn some more lessons.

Sun Lanhua also knew this. She cherished this learning opportunity. She poked her fingers on the neat Chinese characters, opened her mouth slightly, and read: "ZHI, A, ZHA."

"Come on, let's read the next word, steel, steel from the rolling mill."

Seeing Sun Lanhua's diligent and studious look, Li Weidong also became energetic, picked up the pen and wrote a word on the paper.

"Brother Wei Dong, your handwriting is really good." Sun Lanhua raised her little head and said with admiration.

She thought of her handwriting again, lowered her head shyly, and twisted her white jade-like hands together: "Why can't I write such good handwriting?"

"Writing requires diligent study and practice. As the saying goes, as long as you work hard, an iron pestle can be ground into a needle. Only by writing more and practicing more can you write neat handwriting."

Li Weidong felt like an old father who couldn't take care of himself. He reached out and pinched Sun Lanhua's little hand to help her get into a correct posture.

"Here, look, just like this, write slowly."

A wisp of red cloud floated from her neck to her two little faces. Sun Lanhua felt her heartbeat speed up and her body tremble slightly. She reluctantly focused on writing.

Snapped.

At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside. It was Pengzi who came back after spreading smoke from outside.

Only then did Sun Lanhua realize that she had been sitting on Li Weidong's lap at some point.

rub!
  Like a little rabbit, she jumped onto the opposite bunk, feeling extremely embarrassed.

She secretly cursed herself, Sun Lanhua, Sun Lanhua, why were you so careless, others saw it! How embarrassing.

However, what she didn't expect was that Pengzi strode in as if he didn't see it.

As Li Weidong's assistant and part-time bodyguard, how could Pengzi fail to see the relationship between the two.

He didn't think there was anything inappropriate.

It is normal for a man like Li Weidong to have half a confidante. After all, even a man like Deputy Factory Director Li can have several little lovers.

People in this era are too conservative. Many girls will stay away from gay men when they see them on the street.

And the openness is too open. It is said that in the courtyard, the young men and women will cover the windows and have dance parties secretly.

It is normal for Li Weidong to have half a lover.

In particular, Pengzi also admired the girl Sun Lanhua, who was honest and not evil-minded.

He saw Sun Lanhua's embarrassment, laughed twice, took out two bottles of beer from his arms, and placed them on the table.

"Brother Wei Dong, do you see what I got?"

"Beer?" Li Weidong's eyes widened. He took out a bottle from the table and took a closer look. There was no trademark on the bottle, only four bold words "Railway only".

Good guy, food is scarce these days, and you can’t even see beer in the supply and marketing cooperatives in the capital. I didn’t expect to see it on the train.

Pengzi said with a smile: "This is specially for chartered crews. I spent two packs of cigarettes in exchange for it from a flight attendant."

Exclusively for chartered crews. Li Weidong was even more confused after drinking at work.

But looking at the rudimentary facilities in the carriage, I suddenly understood.

The various rules and regulations on the railways were not strict in these days. The comrades in the private crew had a heavy workload, so it was normal to drink some beer to relieve their fatigue.

As for the origin of beer, that is better explained. The railway is a huge collective, and there are many small collectives under this collective, such as ice cream factories, breweries and other third-tier factories, which can be used to accommodate the families of railway workers.

This beer must be a product of a third-tier factory.

After arriving in this era, Li Weidong has not drunk beer yet, so he naturally wants to taste it.

But just wine without food is absolutely impossible. Li Weidong is not in the habit of drinking dry.

He took out a handful of bills from his pocket and asked Pengzi to go to the dining car to buy some meat and vegetables.

After a while, Pengzi came back, but he was not alone. There was a female flight attendant behind him.

The female flight attendant was Zhang Liya who she had just met at the carriage door. She also carried two bottles of beer in her hand.

"Director Li, I just took a break and met your little brother. I came to your place to join a table. Do you mind?"

She spoke very characteristically, with a fast tone, her bright red lips closing and closing like a jumping bean, her big black eyes blinking, two small dimples on her face, and her enthusiastic smile. , people can’t help but feel a sense of intimacy.

Li Aiguo is certainly not the kind of stingy person. After all, there are many friends and many roads, although this road may be a waterway.

He stood up and said with a smile: "Of course I don't mind, Comrade Zhang, sit down quickly."

Pengzi and Sun Lanhua put away the books on the table and placed the lunch boxes on it, making a simple dining table.

"Come on, sit a little inside." Zhang Liya walked in carelessly, taking advantage of the opportunity to put the beer bottles and sit next to Li Weidong.

Her butt was pushed inward, and Li Aiguo couldn't help but click his tongue.

I have long heard that lesbians on trains are particularly bold and unrestrained, and I finally saw it today.

Of course, Li Weidong couldn't give in. As if he didn't notice it, he picked up the wine bottle and knocked the lid to the corner of the table.

"Director Li, let me do it." Zhang Yali took the bottle, scratched Li Aiguo's hand with her fingers seemingly unintentionally, and gave him a wink.

This woman is a bit interesting. Li Weidong narrowed his eyes.

There was a record book hanging on the car window. Zhang Yali stood up and stretched out her left arm to get the record book. At this time, her clothes, which were not loose enough, revealed a gap just right, allowing Li Weidong to see Bai Huahua.

"Snapped!"

The notebook hit the bottle cap, and the cap flew off.

Pengzi took out the enamel jar and wanted to pour the beer into the bottle.

"You look like a strong young man, why do you look like a girl?" Zhang Yali reached out to block Pengzi and giggled: "Of course you have to blow on the bottle when drinking beer."

As she spoke, the beer bottle was pressed against her bright red lips. Zhang Yali raised her neck, and after a pause, she downed half the bottle of beer. Her little face turned red, she burped comfortably, and said "It feels good!"

Pengzi was stunned. Isn't this woman too bold?

Sun Lanhua was speechless for a long time. She did not expect that there was such a cheerful woman in the world.

Li Weidong didn't care and blew half of the bottle. Zhang Yali became even more excited when she saw this. She lightly punched Li Aiguo's shoulder with her fist and said with a smile: "I knew you were not the kind of old-fashioned person who is pretending."

Li Weidong smiled, picked up a piece of meat, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it. He felt that the meat tonight was particularly fragrant.

Afterwards, after two bottles of beer, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became lively.

Zhang Yali is the kind of character who is familiar with herself. Under Li Weidong's seemingly unintentional exploration, she quickly found out her details.

Zhang Yali is a flight attendant of the 1261 package crew. She has just turned twenty this year, but she is an old flight attendant with five years of flight attendant experience.

This may seem impossible in later generations, but it is very common in this era. When recruiting railway employees, most of them will choose their family members.

Zhang Yali's father and brothers all work in the locomotive depot, and her father is also a large truck driver. He is considered a prominent figure in the locomotive depot. Arranging her daughter's work is a matter of ease.

Zhang Yali got married to her husband, who was also a railway employee, when she was eighteen years old. However, life after marriage did not seem so good. In addition, as a flight attendant, she had to travel around by train every day, spending less time together and more separation. Can't see both sides.

Speaking of sadness, the corners of Zhang Yali's eyes, who had laughed just now, turned red. She patted Sun Lanhua on the shoulder and said, "Sister, please listen to me. When you choose a man when you get married in the future, you must not choose a man who is useless." , then life is simply like living as a widow!"

Sun Lanhua's face suddenly turned red and she said, "Sister, I don't plan to get married in this life." After saying that, she felt that she had said the wrong thing and quickly picked up the wine bottle and took a sip.

But the beer was a bit too big, and it choked her throat, causing Sun Lanhua to cough.

Seeing Sun Lanhua's panic, Zhang Yali looked at Sun Lanhua and then at Li Weidong, as if she understood something.

But she didn't care.

Although real names are not required to take trains these days, the letter of introduction contains information about Li Weidong. The flight attendants have contact with a wide range of people, and the Jingcheng Steel Rolling Plant is very famous in the capital.

After Zhang Yali set her sights on Li Weidong, she quickly found out about him.

The director of the poverty alleviation workshop who is less than [-] years old is a popular person in the steel rolling mill. He has been commended several times and has some mysterious connection with the port city.

Such a man would be top-notch even if he were placed in a large compound. How could he not have a few women around him?

Besides, Zhang Yali herself doesn't care about these things.

Seeing Sun Lanhua's embarrassment, she smiled and said, "Girls talk a lot. Men nowadays are all big pigs. We women might as well live happily by ourselves."

As she spoke, she picked up the wine bottle and drank half of the beer without waiting for anyone else to let her go.

The beer of this era was different from the horse urine of later generations. It was brewed with serious grains and had a high alcohol content.

Zhang Yali had already drank two bottles of beer, and now she drank half a bottle. She instantly became drunk and couldn't speak in sentences.

It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, and most of the passengers in the private carriage were asleep, so Li Weidong asked Pengzi to send Zhang Yali back.

As soon as Pengzi stood up, before he could help him, his arm was pushed away by Zhang Yali: "I won't let you give it away, I'm not drunk."

Pengzi is also a straight man. At this time, he can only stand there in a daze, at a loss.

Zhang Yali glanced at Li Weidong secretly. Seeing that Li Weidong had no other reaction, she could only stand up holding the table.

She staggered forward two steps, her feet caught on the legs of the bed, and she almost fell.

At this time, a strong arm gently hugged her waist, and a magnetic voice came from Zhang Yali's ear: "I'd better take you back. Where will you stay at night?"

"Camping car" Zhang Yali felt as if she had lost all her strength and let the man help her to walk outside.

These days, sleeping berths not only require high fares, but also require certain qualifications, so most private rooms are empty.

The light bulb at the top of the carriage corridor shook, and the light flickered on and off.

Li Weidong helped Zhang Yali walk towards the camping car.

As she approached the connection between the carriages, Zhang Yali's drunkenness suddenly dissipated and she stopped.

She grabbed Li Weidong's arm tightly and murmured in a low voice: "Brother Wei Dong, I suddenly feel so tired. I want to go to the private room to rest first."

"We'll reach the camper soon, let's hold on for a while longer."

"You are also a fool!" Zhang Yali grabbed Li Weidong's arm hard, pushed him into the private room next to him, turned around and closed the door.

Li Weidong Yangzhuang was surprised: "You're not drunk?"

"The employees in the cabin crew are all soaked in alcohol. When I was five years old, my father would dip his chopsticks in wine to feed me. How could I get drunk with just a few bottles of beer!" Zhang Yali rushed up and hugged me. Li Weidong leaned forward and said hurriedly: "I miss you."

after an hour.

Under the dim light, Zhang Yali's face was flushed, sweat dripped from her forehead, her mouth was slightly open, and she was breathing rapidly.

She was so tired. She had never been so tired in her life.

Li Weidong smiled, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and leaned against the bed.

Zhang Yali took the match from his hand, struck it and helped light the cigarette, then lay on his chest, sliding her fingers unconsciously on it.

"I really regret not meeting you earlier. Thinking about it now, my life was all in vain."

Li Weidong took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "What's wrong, is there something wrong with your man?"

"Don't mention him. I get angry when I mention him." Zhang Yali arched her head and whispered: "We met on a blind date. We had never been in contact before we got married. We just looked at his fair appearance. , and he was tall enough, so he agreed.”

"Who would have thought that after getting married, I would find out something was wrong with him. After so many years, I am no different than a widow."

Li Weidong asked curiously: "Didn't you take your man to the hospital?"

"How could I not go? On the second day of the wedding, I wanted to take him to the hospital. He loves face and feels that it would be an insult to him if others knew about it, so he kept refusing." Zhang Yali sighed and said: " I took care of his face and let him secretly find some old Chinese doctors.

But after nearly half a year, there is still no effect.

I couldn't bear it any longer, so I told his parents, my parents-in-law, about this. Instead of helping me and persuading his son to go to the hospital, those two accused me of causing trouble.

The attitude of the two of them aroused my suspicion. After all, even if they don't think about me, they should think about themselves. "
