I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 498 A meal on the train
This t14/15 train is an express train from BJ to Guangzhou in this era.

Its first official operation was on May 1964, 5, starting from BJ and Guangzhou at the same time. From that time, it began its decades-long journey across mountains and rivers, becoming an important land passage connecting Guangzhou, the gateway to South China, and the capital, BJ.

Not only ordinary people take this train, but even many leaders choose it when they go south for inspections. One can imagine how important it is to the people of the motherland in this era.

Although the name is express, the train still starts with the letter "t", but it is only relative to this era. In fact, his average speed is only about 50 kilometers per hour. Because her locomotive is just a steam train.

Anyone who has watched the Railway Guerrillas knows what a steam train is. It means that you need to keep shoveling coal into the steam furnace every one or two kilometers to drive the entire train forward.

In addition to the slow train itself, the main reason why it takes more than 40 hours is that there are many stops. There are few trains from south to north at this time, so they have to stop at major and small stations along the way. There are probably more than 20 stops in total. How long does it take just to park at the station? No wonder it takes forty-six hours.

Of course the trains at this time will not have air conditioning. The real thing is cool in winter and warm in summer. But when Song Wu got on the bus, he unexpectedly found that although the vehicle was crowded, it was very clean. Especially the train aisles, seats, windows, and tables. Gives people a spotless feeling.

He couldn't help but think of the flight attendant who smiled at him when he boarded the train to check in. His smile was full of the protagonist's sense of responsibility and he stood upright.

Responsibility and enthusiasm can make your work the most beautiful.

At this time, the broadcast on the train was introducing the situation of this train. Only then did Song Wu know that this T15/16 train was already the highest grade in the country in this era, and it was one of the first trains to have soft sleepers.

But Song Wu stood at the door of the private room and hesitated. He was a little hesitant, should he go in?
This private room looks really special. He couldn't help but take out his ticket and check the number again. Why. That's right.

Song Wu suddenly felt very honored. It was the first time he took a train in the 1s, and he could ride in such a high-end train. He even got a certificate and bought a soft sleeper ticket.

Therefore, he is actually very anxious now, always afraid that he will be late and something he does not want to see will happen.

But he quickly put these thoughts behind him. Why do you think so much? It's just a train ride. Why worry about other people's hearts when you go your own way?
As a result, Song Wu quickly relaxed, nodded and smiled at the three women who looked at her curiously. He sat down on his lower bunk.

Therefore, opportunities for real people to travel far away are very rare. There are many people who have never left home in their lives, and they are not unusual.

Inside, the three women who were making the bed turned and looked over together. The key is that the three of them had their eyes shining at the same time, staring at Song Wu.

The style is still very simple as always, not beyond the standards of this era at all. There is definitely no air conditioning, but what is satisfying is that there is a private room for four people and a coffee table. Of course, there are no slippers provided.

To be honest, in this era, taking a train is originally a very luxurious thing, and it is a dream for many people. After all, just a hard-seat ticket costs nearly 40 yuan. It’s much more than many people’s monthly salary.

But thinking about it, Song Wu was already very satisfied with the scene he just saw in the hard sleeper compartment. In comparison, this place is almost like paradise.

Song Wu was still puzzled. Isn’t it said that there are level requirements for soft sleeper tickets? The three women are obviously quite young, are they all of such high rank? Absolutely not.

Holy shit. This is the legendary high-end soft sleeper.

In addition, travel in this era cannot be measured by money alone. Everywhere you go, you need a letter of introduction and food stamps.

He was leaving in such a hurry today that he didn't even bother to eat dinner. This time he insisted on going to Xiangjiang at this time. Apart from the fact that I had already had plans in mind since I learned about Lou Xiao'e and Du Yuhui. Another most important reason is that he has always been feeling uneasy recently. It was like a whim, which made him always want to go to Xiangjiang and meet Lou Xiao'e and Du Yuhui.

However, he still pretended to open the zipper of his bag, took out food and drink, and placed it on the table.

Song Wu bit the bullet and walked in.

In order to cover up, Song Wu weighed a bag in his hand. In fact, there was nothing in it except some clothes that could give him some shape.

After all, this is a soft-sleeper carriage that only division-level cadres, regiment-level officers and above are eligible to sit in. By the way, there are also overseas Chinese.

He hadn't paid much attention to the sleeper ticket in his hand just now, but now he actually felt a sense of honor.

But when the train started slowly and drove out of Beijing, Song Wu realized that there was no rush. This car was really slow. Looking at the slowly reversing scenery outside the car, he finally had the most real helpless feeling about the speed of the so-called express train.

This can really scare people to death.

Song Wu's meal consisted of a bottle of Erguotou, dried potatoes, peanuts, and a piece of Yueshengzhai's soy sauce beef. This is a good thing that has only been easily available since last year. In the past two years, I couldn't even eat it if I wanted to. Turn on two more sesame seeds. This meal is definitely a sumptuous one.

You see, since Song Wu took out his things and started eating and drinking, the three women just now looked at him with curiosity.

Song Wu was actually sizing them up too.

Mainly because he was more curious and couldn't help but guess in his mind what they were doing. They look to be around 20 years old at most. All of them are as beautiful as flowers, with enchanting figures and different temperaments, but they are all outstanding.

And I heard them talking to each other just now, so I think they all know each other. Their accents are more like those from Guangzhou than from Beijing.

Qin Huairu fried the peanuts for him, and Qin Huairu specially marinated the dried tofu, so it tasted quite good. Take a sip of Erguotou wine and pinch a large piece of Yueshunzhai’s soy sauce beef. Absolutely the highest level of enjoyment.

Song Wu ate and drank so much that the other three female passengers in the private room could not stand it. In fact, in this era, the biggest temptation for people from all walks of life and all identities is to eat. However, these things that Song Wu ate were not easily available.

And judging by the appearance and smell, it should be particularly delicious. So the three female passengers kept swallowing and looked at Song Wu eagerly.

In fact, the three of them didn't eat, and they actually brought food in the car with them in their luggage. However, when they saw what Song Wu had brought out, they were too embarrassed to take it out.

When it comes to eating in a dining car, they are absolutely reluctant to do so. After all, the fact that they can sit in the sleeper car is a special arrangement in itself. There was no plan to go to the dining car to eat.

So if they want to go to the dining car to eat, they need to have money, food stamps, and meat stamps. Who is willing to give it up?

They were also very curious about Song Wu. The soldier carrying the gun was tall, handsome, young and promising. Looking at the package of soy beef, dried beans and peanuts, the whole person exuded a luster full of temptation.

In fact, Song Wu really didn't care about what they saw, and they didn't think about it at all.

Military uniforms come as they please. The certificate is filled in by yourself. The gun was taken from someone else.

Therefore, he didn't know what he looked like in military uniform. At the same time, because he was used to living at home, he had no idea how much impact and temptation these things he put on the table would have on other people.

In his mind, eating these things from himself was just ordinary. But in the eyes of the people around him, he has almost become a beacon lighting up in the dark night.

For example, when buying tickets, the female conductor's attitude made him think that she was just curious and eager about his identity as an officer. In fact, he didn't even realize that what attracted others to him was his appearance.

Unknowingly, as a cripple, he walked out of Nanluogu Alley and stepped onto an unfamiliar territory, and he was able to connect with the handsome character. If he could really realize this, he might still feel sad.

The train rattled in the dark night as it rushed forward.

Song Wu sipped wine and food happily, and seemed to have found some of the feeling of traveling by train in later generations.

right. This is also where he has some tolerance. He seems to be a bit neglectful of taking the train now and will feel like taking the train in the future.

It was also because it was my first time to take a train in this era, and the one I took was more or less a relatively high-end soft sleeper. I really found some feeling of future generations. A little excited and excited, he suddenly had a sense of time and space confusion, which is why he was able to eat so relaxedly and naturally without any scruples.

Finally, the oval-faced female passenger sitting on the lower berth opposite him hesitated for a long time, took out a can of fish from her luggage, and tentatively said to Song Wu, "How about we eat together?"

Song Wu looked at her and asked with a smile: "You haven't had dinner either?"

The two female passengers on the opposite bunk bed shook their heads in unison. Song Wu leaned out again and looked at his upper bunk.

Sure enough, the guy above was also shaking his head.

Song Wu sat down again and said with a smile: "I thought it was so late and you all had eaten. Since you haven't eaten yet, don't be polite. Come on, let's sit around together."

Song Wu's enthusiastic invitation received enthusiastic responses from the three female passengers. Except for the oval-faced guy opposite just now, who took a can of canned fish. One of the two people on the upper bunk gritted his teeth and took two salted duck eggs, and the other took two sticks of rice rolls. Finally, I added a plate of vegetables.
