Chapter 38 Chapter 38


The trains at this time still looked like old-fashioned diesel locomotives, with green leather and yellow belts.

The chairs were hard seats with wooden strips nailed together.

The seats were in two rows facing each other.

Three people could sit on each side.

There was a small space in the middle.

A table to put things on.

In 1979, it was about to enter the 1980s, and the policies from above were gradually relaxed.

In the 1960s, when going to work in other places, you needed to bring documents such as certificates from your work unit or letters from the street office.

At that time, the national policies were very strict, and it was difficult to catch spies.

The arrests were particularly harsh, with joint defense teams all over the streets patrolling everywhere, checking the identity of anyone who saw anything wrong.

Coupled with the control of rural people staying in cities, it is basically impossible to live in the city without documents such as certification letters, and once caught by the joint defense team, they will be returned to their place of origin.

But now, the policy has been implemented for many years, and some rules have been relaxed.

Only in cities like Kyoto, buying tickets is a little stricter and requires a letter of introduction, but train tickets in some other cities are not that troublesome.

The female protagonist in the book didn't have a letter of introduction, so she just bought a train ticket and went south directly.

Wen Xin left suddenly.

She actually didn't know where she was going.

She just followed others and bought a random one.

In fact, it was the same everywhere she went, with no one around her.

She sat on the seat by the window, tears falling down, but she made no sound.

A couple in their sixties opposite looked at the little girl, tears streaming down her face.

The old lady felt distressed and quickly grabbed a handful of peanut candies she bought for her son.

"Little girl, don't cry when you leave home for the first time.

You'll be back in two days.

Eat this candy and don't cry after eating it."

The old lady said kindly.

Wenxin looked at the old lady with tears in her big eyes, choked, looked down at the candy in her hand, and felt as if eating one piece would make her feel less uncomfortable.

She said "hmm", took a piece from it, and put it away.

Chew it in your mouth.

"Is it delicious?"

the old lady asked.

Wen Xin looked at her, nodded, and a pair of tears fell down.

Ouch, this old lady is so distressed, this girl is so painful.

After eating a piece of candy, Wen Xin felt better.

The train had already left Kyoto.

Looking at the distant and unfamiliar city outside, thin raindrops continued to pour on the windows.

She had to think about what to do next in Kyoto after leaving.

When she first came here, she came to the Yan family.

Although she was working as a nanny, the Yan family was actually an invisible protective umbrella for her.

She could do everything without any hindrance, and she got along well in the compound.

But now, she leaves this protective umbrella and is in an unfamiliar world.

She doesn't even know where she will end up.

She tried her best to avoid the city where the female protagonist went, and just followed the people in line in front of her and bought a ticket to a city in the south.

This novel is a fictional period novel, and all the place names have been changed.

It is different from the real place names, and Wen Xin doesn't know.

Where to go, I only know a few cities in the south.

"You kid, you want to eat sweets when you see others eating them.

Why are you so ignorant?

How can I give you sweets to eat?"

Sitting next to Wen Xin was a couple, probably out to visit relatives.

There were big and small bags stuffed under the chair.

The three- or four-year-old child was beaten twice and was crying.

The old lady quickly handed the child two more pieces of candy.

The woman took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, this kid is greedy."

Wenxin wiped her tears and glanced at her.

Although everyone's life is much better in this era, and they can eat better, sugar is still very valuable.

Wenxin has never seen pork, but she has seen it.

The pigs are running away, the Yan family is not short of sugar, brown sugar, white sugar There was no shortage of sugar and honey, but Yang Hemiao's family couldn't afford it.

Wenxin made too many small sugar cakes and gave the rest to Hemiao.

She thought it was very delicious, let alone candies, like How can the two of them afford it?

Not to mention candy coupons, which are expensive but limited.

Wen Xin glanced at the woman and child next to her, and then looked at the old lady and man opposite her.

Thinking of giving her sweets to comfort her when she cried just now, she immediately felt a natural affection for them.

"Auntie, thank you."

Wen Wen's eyes were red, but she smiled sweetly and told her.

Seeing that she had stopped crying, the old lady also smiled and said: "It's okay, you're welcome.

My youngest son bought it for us both.

The old man and I don't like to eat it.

If you like, take two more pieces."

Wenxin quickly shook his head and stopped eating.

The old lady looked warm, wearing a white shirt, blue trousers, and two pigtails.

Her face was as white as a palm, and her big eyes were red, like a little rabbit.

The way she cried just now made me feel really distressed. , the old lady didn’t have a daughter, she had two sons in total.

The eldest son died and the second son was still in the army.

She wanted a daughter back then.

When she saw Wen Xin, she thought it would be great to have a daughter like Wen Xin.

It's a pity that my life is not good and I don't have a daughter in my life.

The train was quite crowded.

There were many people going to visit relatives and do errands.

They carried a lot of luggage in large and small bags, which were packed in all places.

It was raining outside and the windows could not be opened.

Especially in summer, the sound was noisy and the smell was particularly unpleasant. .

It's noon now, and there are conductors walking back and forth in the carriage, selling lunch boxes from push carts.

At this time, the train ticket only costs three to five yuan, and a lunch box costs less than one yuan.

Wenxin sees a push cart coming, so he rushes over to buy lunch. .

The food on the train is very affordable, and it doesn’t require a ticket, but the price is a bit expensive.

The train sells a kind of freshly baked sesame cake, which is a shortbread baked with wheat flour and white sugar.

It is wrapped in kraft paper and costs 40 cents.

One, six per pack.

There are also lunch boxes sold in aluminum lunch boxes.

Under the lunch box is hot white rice with vegetables on top.

It is a bit like the rice bowl of later generations.

The dish is stir-fried lotus white meat.

It looks oily and smells fragrant. .

Wen Xin left in a hurry and didn't bring anything to eat, so she bought a lunch box, a bag of shortbread, and five tea eggs for less than five yuan.

Returning to the seat with the things, there was a young man next to the old lady opposite.

Wenxin gave him a tea egg and wanted to change places with him.

She wanted to sit next to the old lady.

When the young man saw Wenxin, he blushed.

He waved his hand, saying no to the tea eggs, and immediately exchanged them with her.

Wenxin ran to sit next to the aunt.

She was very talkative and generous.

She invited the uncle and aunt to eat together.

She was so enthusiastic that the old couple felt embarrassed not to eat.

Finally, she accepted the lotus leaf egg and shortbread that Wenxin pushed over her.

Each person shared half of it and took two bites.

They took out a lot of dried fruits and candies bought by their son and stuffed them into Wen Wenxin.

Wen Wenxin was not polite and accepted them with red eyes and a smile.

Although she felt uncomfortable, the environment was unfamiliar and she had to cheer up.

She had to plan for her future.

She did not have a letter of introduction now.

Even if the policy was relaxed now, the joint defense team would not arrest people everywhere, and they could also visit relatives.

It doesn't matter if you stay for a longer period of time or if the date of the introduction letter exceeds ten days and a half.

As long as no one reports you, you can continue to live there.

However, this proof of identity is still very important in this era.

At least when you arrive at a place, you must have a place to stay.

At this time, there are no commercial hotels or the like, only guest houses.

Wen Wen also inquired about it vaguely when we were in the compound.

There are also guest houses in other places that do not require a letter of introduction, but the place where you live The place was too crowded, the place was remote, there were many not good people living there, thefts were rampant and fugitives were rife, Wenxin only had one person, it was impossible for her to live in a place like that.

In other words, she must find a reliable place to live.

The main purpose of the letter of introduction is to stay in a guest house, find a job, and buy a house to change her household registration.

So for ordinary people, if you go to the city without a letter of introduction, you have no place to live, you can't find a job, and you won't be able to stay without all kinds of tickets and rations, unless someone accepts you to live in, and then you can eat, drink, and relieve yourself.

It's okay to stay.

Wenxin’s biggest problem right now is finding a place to live.

She bit into the white sugar shortbread in her mouth, and while eating, she sniffed and began to think about what to do.

This era was too unfriendly to her who came through it.

She was in urgent need of finding a place to live.

The aroma of tea eggs and shortbread soon filled this small space, and the woman holding the child opposite kept looking this way.

There are many people who take the train to do business in other places.

They don't need the three or two yuan, and they will buy the lunch provided on the train.

However, most of the people who take the train are working poor people.

Many poor people only earn ten yuan a month.

The box lunch cost 80 cents, and not many people bought it.

They all brought corn tortillas and pickled vegetables, and asked for a tank of boiling water to have a delicious meal.

There is no such luxury as Wenxin.

If you buy something for almost five yuan at once, anyone who sees it will say that you can't live.

The woman pinched the child secretly and cried, "You are so ignorant, your aunt bought the sugar cakes and eggs, not for you to eat, why are you crying?"

This routine of asking for things doesn't involve changing things.

Wen Xin pouted, ate his own food, and put away the rest.

This train will take two days.

After having a meal, she got along warmly with the old lady, hugged her arm and asked.

"Auntie, where are you going back to?"

"Back to my hometown of Longcheng, my youngest son is serving as a soldier in Kyoto.

The old man and I went to see him.

After staying in the military family home for two days, your son was ready to return to his hometown."

Soldier Wenxin's eyes lit up, probably because of Yan Motou, she now has a natural affection for soldiers of this era.

She always feels that they are all good people, so her parents who are soldiers must not be bad either.

Longcheng seems to be a city in the south close to the coast, and it is also a very prosperous city.

Wenxin's ticket was for passing through Longcheng.

Instead of looking for a random city, it would be better to follow them to Longcheng.

I have been getting along well with the uncle and aunt in the past two days.

Maybe I can help rent a house.

After all, she is not familiar with the place.

Now that I have acquaintances, things will definitely be easier.

Wen Xin wiped her eyes and finally showed a smile.

Maybe the accommodation was solved.

"Look, girl, this is my son.

He specially took a picture for me and my wife.

We will take it out when we miss him later."

The old lady took out a photo.

It was a black and white photo unique to this era.

Inside There was a soldier wearing a military uniform, showing two big white teeth.

Wen Xin glanced at it twice, why did he feel so familiar?

But soldiers all over the world wear the same clothes, so they all look alike.

She nodded, "Yeah, you look really energetic."

Her teeth were so white.

Along the way, she was very considerate to the old couple.

If she wanted to please someone, that someone would be like a spring breeze.

The way Yama looked like at the beginning would be cured by her later.

Therefore, he kept saying things to please them, coaxing the old lady to like her.

When asked where she was going, she said sweetly: "I'm going to Longcheng too, let's go along."

My wife is even happier.

She is in the same place and talks more cordially.

Not to mention the uncle, who looked at Wenxin with a smile on his face and made them happy every day.

The woman opposite looked at Wen Wen and bought delicious food for the two old men and old ladies.

She poured water and snacks for the two old men opposite and massaged the shoulders of the old ladies as if she were her own daughter.

The old lady said that she wanted to be married to her, and that she would be covered with clothes when she slept warmly at night.

She pouted, saying that there was nothing wrong with the person on the train who she didn’t even know.

After sitting for two whole days, on the afternoon of the third day, the train finally stopped at the station.

Carrying bags and boxes, Wen Wen carefully followed the old couple into the hazy city near the seaport, a city teeming with smoke and rain.

Yan Zeyang had a leg injury and stayed in the hospital for half a month.

As for the three meals, He Wenyan naturally didn't have to worry about it.

The hospital had orderlies arranged by his father, and Dong Yao, the daughter of the hospital director, delivered soup and water three times a day in the past two days.

At noon, the warm sunshine shone into the ward.

Yan Zeyang was sitting on the hospital bed, reading a military book with a cold and expressionless face, without turning a page for a long time.

At this time, military doctor Dong Yao was wearing a smart shirt, military trousers, and a white coat.

He had slightly curly long hair, which made him look like a military person and very modern and fashionable.

She walked into the ward with a lunch box and smiled.

Said: "Captain Yan, how are you doing today?

Does your leg still hurt?

I made pork liver soup, which is very good for wound recovery.

I made it by myself.

Please give me some face." gd1806102:
