The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 88

The sun shone on the rails, flashing an icy cold light.

Li Aiguo put his hands on the ground, trying to stand up.

But just now, he had run out of strength.

As soon as he was in mid-air, his arms were a little sore and he couldn't use his strength, and he fell to the ground again.

"Hey, you, you did it on purpose."

Under the pain, the girl pouted her small mouth.

Li Aiguo got off his horse and pointed at her nose.

"Are you looking for death!"

The girl was dumbfounded.

The cute little mouth was half-opened, and there was no way to close it again.

Ever since she was a child, no one dared to scold her like that.

Her little face instantly turned red, and two lines of tears flowed down her smooth and fair cheeks, with an aggrieved look.

Li Aiguo breathed a sigh of relief, stood up with support, and said angrily, "Do you know that you almost died just now?"

The girl wiped her tears and sobbed softly: "I"

"It's a trivial matter that you were hit and killed by a train. This month's safety awards at the station and the train driver will be reimbursed."

"That's a full five yuan, which can pay for the children's school fees, buy bad cakes for the elderly, and flower headbands for the daughter-in-law."

"Just now, you almost got reimbursed for your mindless behavior."

"How dare you say I did it on purpose?"

The girl was sprayed all over her head and face, and she no longer cared about being angry, her little face turned pale immediately, and she lowered her head and tugged at the corner of her clothes.

This vulgar man seems to have something to say.

"Also, you were crushed by the wheels, and you thought how hard the cleaners at the station must be."

Li Aiguo hated this kind of unruly things the most, and he didn't leave any sympathy for the little girl.

"They're going to take a shovel and shovel your pieces off the rails bit by bit and put them in the slop bucket"

"Sometimes the swill bucket is not enough, and you have to replace it with a big dung bucket to hold your scraps."

The girl shivered in fright, raised her small face, and said timidly, "Can I change to a cleaner wooden barrel?"

Li Aiguo: "."

at this time.

A middle-aged man hurried over from the platform with a woman.

The middle-aged man wears a well-crafted suit, which is still a two-piece.

The collar reveals the lining of the vest, the tie is neatly tied, carrying a civilized staff, and the feet are shiny leather shoes. He looks like a gentry before liberation.

The woman is wearing an emerald green slim-fitting cheongsam, with soft silk satin close to the body, like an affectionate flower, beautiful and reserved, but with a vague air of dust.

Although she was walking a little flustered at this time, her posture was quite elegant.

These days, people dress more and more conservatively.

Although the conspicuous clothes of the two are rare, they can occasionally be seen on the street.

Belonging to those who are old times.

In a few years, you won't be able to see it at all.

The woman in the cheongsam rushed up to hug the girl, the corners of her eyes turned rosy, and her voice trembled with distress: "Xiao'e, how are you?"

晓娥
Li Aiguo's eyes widened suddenly.

Could this girl be Lou Xiao'e?
The daughter of Lou Zhenhua, a great patriotic businessman.

The rolling mill is the property of the Lou family. In the past two years, a public-private partnership has been established. Lou Zhenhua is the director of the factory and receives a lot of dividends every year.

At this point in time, Xu Damao was pursuing Lou Xiaoe.

In the original book, Lou Xiaoe was already in her 30s when she appeared on the stage.

Lou Xiaoe in front of her looked only eighteen or nineteen years old.

For a while, Li Aiguo didn't recognize him.

Look closely.

She has a fair oval face, a pair of watery eyes under the curved eyebrows, a light red satin shirt, and a pair of blue trousers that are ironed without any wrinkles. She wears a pair of 'chemical' sandals on her feet and two pearl pendants on her ears.

A bit less of the charm of a mature woman, and more of a young girl's unique greenness.

Seeing that Lou Xiao'e was not injured, Tan Liya secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and glared at Li Aiguo and said, "What's wrong with you, you dare to play hooligans in broad daylight, go, I will let the comrades at the station arrest you now."

She and Lou Zhenhua went to buy gifts just now, and they were delayed for a while, only to see Li Aiguo pressing on top of Lou Xiaoe.

Lou Xiaoe quickly grabbed Tan Liya's arm, and whispered, "Mother, you misunderstood, it was this comrade who saved me, just now."

Just as she was about to explain, Master Zheng and the station security officer rushed over.

"Aiguo, are you okay?"

The safety officer pointed to Lou Xiaoe and said, "Comrade, how could you cross the railroad tracks indiscriminately? If the driver comrade hadn't tried his best just now, you would have been hit to death."

Hearing this, Tan Liya's face turned pale, but the pampered life all the year round made her disdain to apologize to the same boss.

"Really? Even if my Xiao'e is wrong, just remind her, and you don't have to pin her down."

"I think you just want to take advantage of the opportunity."

Tan Liya rolled her eyes, held her voice, and looked eccentric, just like those bitter bustards in Bada Hutong in the old days who met poor scholars.

What?
Tan Liya herself came out of Bada Hutong?

That's fine!

"Liya, don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing Li Aiguo's serious expression, Lou Zhenhua frowned slightly, hurriedly took out a name card from his pocket and handed it to Li Aiguo.

"Comrade, I'm Lou Zhenhua, thank you for saving the little girl, is it convenient for you to leave your name?"

Li Aiguo took the name card casually: "I am a worker in the locomotive depot, and it is my responsibility to serve the people, so no thanks."

What an incomprehensible worker!
Lou Zhenhua slandered, but his face was full of smiles: "We still have to go to the banquet, so I won't delay you."

"and many more."

Li Aiguo stopped Lou Zhenhua, and turned to look at the security officer: "Comrade security officer, it is strictly forbidden to cross the railway tracks in the station, and those who violate it will be severely punished."

"What punishment do we have for violators?"

"Report, fine five yuan, write a 1000-word letter of repentance, and submit it to the education department of the locomotive depot."

The security officer gave a salute in surprise and straightened his chest.

Most of the comrades on the railway are from railway soldiers, and the habits formed over the years will be difficult to change in a short time.

Li Aiguo turned around and saluted Lou Zhenhua: "Comrade, you can leave, but you have to pay a fine and a letter of repentance."

Lou Zhenhua's face suddenly darkened.

Fines don't matter, the most important thing in his Lou family is money.

It's just that writing a letter of repentance is making things difficult for others.

Lou Zhenhua thought for a moment, then took out a handful of banknotes from his pocket, counted out a few in public, and handed them to the security guard.

"Comrade, here is 50 yuan. You take it away, and treat the extra money as a treat for everyone."

It has only been seven or eight years since liberation, and many people from the old era still like to use old methods to solve problems.

"Comrade, what are you doing! Take the money back quickly!"

The security officer looked at the money, as if seeing a dynamite package, and couldn't help but take a step back.

Lou Zhenhua's heart skipped a beat, knowing that he had hit a dead end, and was about to get the money back.

But seeing Li Aiguo reaching out to take the money, he was overjoyed and was about to take Lou Xiao'e away.

Li Aiguo's words stunned him in the cold sunlight.
