Chapter 122 The journey is more lively
As a man, Zhang Hongliang is quite gentlemanly.
Coming out of the bag depository, Liu Xinyu was carrying a backpack and a satchel, and she was holding a large paper bag in her arms, which contained bread and snacks.
Zhang Hongliang was carrying all the net bags containing washbasins, hot water bottles and other sundries.
The two of them were queuing up to check in according to the radio prompts. At this time, a clear voice came from the queue in front: "Zhang Hongliang, why are you here? I thought you didn't take this bus!"
Liu Xinyu looked up and saw a head sticking out from the team in front, waving to Zhang Hongliang.
"Your friend?" Liu Xinyu turned to look at Zhang Hongliang in surprise.
Zhang Hongliang frowned slightly, and while protecting Liu Xinyu as he walked along the line, he replied: "A colleague from a factory named Jiang seems to have been admitted to a university in the capital."
"Really! I don't know which carriage she is in. I'll go over and ask her. It's fun to have more than one person with multiple people!" Liu Xinyu said and planned to squeeze forward.
There were many people entering the station, and everyone was squeezing forward. Zhang Hongliang wanted to find Liu Xinyu, but he had no choice but to carry a net bag with both hands. There was also a hot water bottle in the net bag to avoid collision. He could only watch Liu Xinyu squeeze towards Jiang Shanshan.
.
"Comrade Jiang, which carriage are you in?" Liu Xinyu was very flexible. Although there were many people, she quickly squeezed in beside Jiang Shanshan and asked enthusiastically.
Although Jiang Shanshan has never met Liu Xinyu, she knows that Zhang Hongliang has a fiancée who just got engaged last year. She even knows that Liu Xinyu went to Beijing University, the best university in the country.
Jiang Shanshan's second uncle works in the garment factory of the Labor Service Company, and the one who signed the tickets for Liu Xinyu and the others yesterday is from the same school, so Jiang Shanshan already knew that Zhang Hongliang and the others would take the same train to Beijing with her.
Originally, she wanted to make an appointment with Zhang Hongliang and Liu Xinyu to have dinner together and then set off from the machinery factory to the train station to wait for the bus. Little did she know that when she rushed to the clothing factory to find Zhang Hongliang after lunch, she learned that the young couple went into the city after lunch.
Already.
Jiang Shan arrived at the train station before six o'clock. She walked around the waiting room countless times but couldn't find Zhang Hongliang and the others. She thought her uncle had mistaken the train number.
Unexpectedly, when the announcement on the radio started to line up to check in and enter the station, she caught sight of Zhang Hongliang who had just entered the waiting room.
But Jiang Shanshan was so happy that she shouted loudly without even thinking about it.
As a result, Zhang Hongliang was not recruited, but his young fiancée was recruited.
Zhang Hongliang's tall and slender figure makes him stand out among the crowd.
When entering the waiting room, Liu Xinyu followed Zhang Hongliang. When queuing, because there were so many people, Zhang Hongliang asked Liu Xinyu to walk in front of him and tried his best to protect Liu Xinyu with his arms carrying net bags.
As a result, Jiang Shanshan was so loud that Liu Xinyu squeezed to the front.
Looking at the two girls who were separated from him by more than a dozen people and talking affectionately in front of him, Zhang Hongliang was really dumbfounded.
After finally getting on the bus, Liu Xinyu asked Zhang Hongliang to look at the luggage and seats, while she squeezed into the next car to look for Jiang Shanshan to see if it was possible to change seats.
After some operations, the train left not far from Jiangnan Provincial City, and the seats of the three people had been changed together.
The people who exchanged seats with them were an old couple who had just retired and planned to live in the capital for a while to take care of their daughter who was working in the capital and was about to give birth to a baby.
"Sister Shanshan, which university did you go to?" I just had time to ask everyone about their carriages and seat numbers, but now I have finally settled down, and of course I want to have a good chat.
Jiang Shanshan can be admitted to a university in the capital, and her grades must be good.
In front of most people, Jiang Shanshan must be proud, but in front of Liu Xinyu, she is a little bit less proud.
Although two or three generations of her family have worked in machinery factories, and she is still a woman, she has admired pilots since she was a child and hopes to fly a plane into the sky one day. Unfortunately, even if female pilots are recruited, she does not meet the conditions.
Because she is short-sighted, and the degree is not low.
Although she couldn't become a pilot, she could build airplanes, so her first choice school was the Aviation Academy in Beijing.
However, she was admitted not to the aircraft design major, but to the aircraft automatic control major.
This made her a little frustrated, but Liu Xinyu felt that the major she was admitted to was better and more promising.
The addition of Jiang Shanshan really made the journey more exciting.
Zhang Hongliang seemed a little silent throughout the trip, but Liu Xinyu was very happy.
Although it is common for trains to be delayed in this era, this express train to Beijing arrived in the capital on time.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon on March 10, after a long journey of nearly 20 hours, Liu Xinyu finally set foot on the ground in Beijing again.
As soon as they left the station, they were shocked by the welcoming scenes of various colleges and universities in the square. Before they could find the orientation points of their respective schools, the three of them were surrounded by a group of enthusiastic senior brothers and sisters.
After a lot of questioning, Liu Xinyu was pulled out of the crowd by a senior sister. Zhang Hongliang and Jiang Shanshan also confirmed their respective senior brothers and sisters.
Seeing Liu Xinyu being taken away, Zhang Hongliang was a little anxious, but the senior brother who was welcoming the newcomers held him back, and after a lot of effort, he returned to Liu Xinyu's side.
Liu Xinyu, who was talking to her senior sisters, saw Zhang Hongliang coming over and quickly pointed to the net bag he was carrying and said: "Brother Zhang, give the net bag to the senior brothers and sisters to help look after it. Let's go pick up the luggage first."
The senior sister nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes, put your luggage here, and first go and see if the checked luggage has arrived. But if your luggage comes with the car, I'm afraid it won't reach the luggage room so quickly."
Liu Xinyu pursed her lips and smiled without saying anything. She just took off the backpack and net bag that she was carrying, and then, accompanied by her senior brother, she and Zhang Hongliang went to the luggage room.
Their luggage must have arrived, and they may have to pay for storage fees.
After all, they had checked in two days in advance and were delayed for a day in the provincial capital because of the ticket signing. In total, the luggage had already been on the road for four days.
I went to the baggage room and took out the consignment slip to check. Their luggage had indeed arrived. Fortunately, it was only one day earlier than them because it needed to be transferred, so there was no need to pay the storage fee.
Jiang Shanshan could only feel envious as she watched Liu Xinyu and Zhang Hongliang take out their luggage and send them to their respective schools' welcome buses with the help of their senior brothers.
Jiang Shanshan just sent her luggage to the train station for check-in yesterday morning, so it hasn't arrived at the luggage room yet.
The master in the luggage room told her to either wait for two hours and come back to see it, or pick it up tomorrow.
It's impossible to pick it up tomorrow. Her mother has checked in almost all her things, and she has to spend money to stay in a hostel just to go to school.
So Jiang Shanshan could only follow her senior brother back to the orientation office of the Aerospace Academy with envy and sadness.
But this is okay, you can chat with your senior sisters and brothers, and learn about the school situation.
