Affair in Linyue Town

Chapter 139

The platform near the meal time is crowded with hawkers selling local specialties.City M, not far from City X, is really a magical place.

The train temporarily stopped for 10 minutes. Many people got off the train to buy, and the hawkers rushed to load things, with smiles on their faces.

The crowded carriage was finally a little empty, Qi Xing looked up and saw Jiao Qing walking towards him with a few stalks of corn in his hands.

After squeezing the train for half a day, Jiao Qingqing became haggard again, her hair became oily, and the coffee stains on her jacket became ugly.

She approached Qi Xing and raised the corn in her hand: "It's very fragrant, why don't you eat one? When you came out of Linyue Town, you didn't drink a drop of water. This is not acceptable. No matter how sad you are, you still have to eat."

She took out a corn and gnawed it by herself: "When my mother just passed away, I was heartbroken and didn't touch any water for five days, but on the sixth day, I figured it out by myself and ate my favorite food. Food. I have to live well so that my mother can leave with peace of mind."

Qi Xing didn't speak, his gaze had already moved out of the window, looking at the busy vendors on the platform.Among them was a young couple who were busy with work and always had a smile on their faces.

The aroma of corn came over, it was indeed very fragrant, hooking the gluttons in his stomach, but Qi Xing was still indifferent.

Jiao Qingqing stopped persuading her, she was about to drive, and people who got out of the car to buy food began to come back, and the turbulent crowd forced her towards Qi Xing.

The moment she was about to approach Qi Xing, the person in front of her remained calm and took a few big steps back, keeping her far away, like avoiding the plague.

Jiao Qingqing was not annoyed, she put away the corn, looked in Qi Xing's direction, passed through the crowd, and squeezed towards him.

Revenge, how can I give up because of a little setback.

However, Qi Xing is really a ruthless person. When she was in the waiting hall, she was squeezed by people and was about to fall. If he helped her, she would probably consider saving him some face at that time.But Qi Xing didn't, in a blink of an eye, he drifted away!He is sideways!
The person who bumped into her from behind had quick eyes and quick hands, and grabbed her: "Hey, are you okay!"

She was fine, the can of coffee spilled out, just right on her clothes.

Jiao Qingqing took another stalk of corn, and while gnawing on it, she thought bitterly that like a mother like a son, like a mother must like a son.The mother is a vixen, and the son is not a good match.

However, his ruthless appearance is really handsome.If she seduces him, he will turn against him, but she still looks down on him.

The train started slowly, and the young couple who were selling food quickly collected their things and began to count the money in their hands.

Qi Xing saw that the young wife had a satisfied smile on her face.

Obviously this kind of life is very hard, and I can't make much money. Year after year, day after day, I stay on this dangerous platform to sell food, waiting for passengers who don't know if they will get off the bus to buy, but there are still people like that. A genuine smile from the heart.

Qi Xing vaguely thought, long, long ago, on the eve of his wedding, his father must have thought of such a barren and happy life.

But my father didn't say it.After all, his married life with Shi Ying came to an abrupt end.The girl who once admired his talent has long since exhausted her admiration in her impoverished and unsustainable life and turned into hysteria.

Every time my father came to visit him, he was dressed very well, his hair was combed meticulously, his shoes were polished, and even the bicycle he was riding was wiped clean.

When my father fell down on the mountain, when he was lonely and helpless, would he regret it, would he think of him?

But he is a son, and he has no telepathy for his father.

If he knew, if he knew, could things be saved...

"You know, when my mother was sick, I was still in school and enjoying college life. But every time she called me, she didn't reveal that she was sick. She acted very happy every time, It’s like traveling somewhere and bringing me local specialties.”

Jiao Qingqing took out another piece of dried mango and gnawed it carefully.

Her voice was not high, her tone was calm, as if she was telling someone else's story.

"Actually, she seldom travels, because my dad is very busy at work. He is always on a business trip or talking with the boss. She is the kind of housewife who takes her husband as her god, so she can't figure out what car to take, and she can't tell the difference between east, west, and north. After I went to college, her time suddenly became free, but she had no hobbies of her own in her life, and spent half of her life around her husband and children. She wanted to dance in the square, but felt twisted in public It's embarrassing. She wants to talk to others, but her circle is only family, and she can't talk about anything interesting. She is afraid that others will get bored after hearing a few words. She is afraid to speak, she has nowhere to go, she can only stay at home in a daze The happiest time of the day is probably calling me, but how do I know what is on her mind? I am very busy every day, busy with schoolwork, busy with socializing with my classmates, and I am too lazy to deal with her daily phone calls .”

Speaking of the latter, her voice was already choked with sobs.

Jiao Qingqing took a light breath, forcing back the tears in her eyes.

She never mentioned this to anyone.

This experience of hers, others will be moved when talking about it.

But Qi Xing didn't even blink his eyes, he just quietly watched the green mountain scenery passing by outside the window.

On the contrary, a young man standing by the side listened intermittently.

He looked at Jiao Qingqing sympathetically, and couldn't help interjecting: "Your mother is so pitiful. Unlike my mother, who married my father and clamored to pursue love every day. If the housework is not done well, the money is not enough." I didn’t earn much. No, I eloped with an old man a few years ago, and I haven’t heard from him for a few years. No, I just received a call from a stranger yesterday, saying that she was dead and asked me to identify the body. Hey, really, alive It didn’t bring us any benefit, and it’s troublesome to die. It’s Chinese New Year, and my store is busy.”

Identify the dead body?Such a coincidence?

After all, Jiao Qingqing was Jiao Qingqing. She had been lurking beside Shi Dan for so long without showing any emotion. Hearing this and thinking about it for half a second, she asked the young man in a low voice: "Brother, can you tell me where you went to identify the corpse?"

"What's the inconvenience?" The young guy said casually, "The phone call from the funeral parlor in City X said that she died on the mountain for a long time before being discovered. I don't know if she was in her head Shui, she died in love with that old man. But there’s no need, my dad is thinking about divorcing her, so why did he die in love.”

The young guy opened his mouth, as if he was gossip about others.He wasn't sad at all when his mother died.

Jiao Qing looked at Qi Xing and saw that he was still indifferent, so she smiled at the young man: "What a coincidence, we also rushed to X City funeral home to identify the corpse, since we are on the way, let's go together."

The young guy also felt that he was destined: "That's really great. I checked on the Internet and found that the funeral home in City X is very remote and evil, and ordinary drivers don't go there. Knowing how to get there, it’s really great to be with you. I also heard that the mountain in X City is very steep, and the number of people who fall down the mountain every year is unknown. There are almost not enough funeral parlors for them. Hey, your family , Who is the missing person?"
