Chapter 38: Stuck at the station

At 4:30 in the morning, the two of them were filled with the feeling of returning home, with a few morning stars above their heads, facing the biting cold wind, their feet on the icy road, carrying their bags, walking out of the living area hand in hand, and came to the road in Beijing. [ ] Standing on the road.

On the other side, the cold wind was biting and my breath turned into mist. I rubbed my hands and stamped my feet, anxiously waiting for the car with sparse noodles.

"The sky is cold and blue, and the north wind is called dry mulberry. The thick ice does not crack, and there is cold light in the short days." On the wide road, there is no bustle and hustle and bustle of the city during the day. The lonely street lamp emits a pale light, and there are scattered pedestrians on the road.

The place was in such a hurry that it seemed extraordinarily quiet and deserted. There were very few taxis. The occasional one could not be stopped no matter what, and just watched helplessly as it whizzed by in front of us.

Qin Meixiang wrapped her head and face tightly, and the clothes she wore could not withstand the cold wind. Her cold body looked like a person without breathing, and she twisted her soft yet strong waist from time to time.

I looked up and down, watching every passing vehicle with expectant eyes.

Wu Xiaojun clasped his hands tightly to his chest and kept changing his steps back and forth. His heart was like an ant being served in a hot pot, restless and impatient. He kept shaking his head and sighing, "The cold wind is blowing, thousands of miles away, and the clouds are dim and powerful.

The smoke of the journey is blown away. The season is not right, God is guilty, and deliberately hinders the return of people on a windy and rainy night."

Qin Meixiang's body shrank, her teeth chattering and she said, "You still want to have the mood of singing and drinking during the day, and returning to your hometown with the company of youth. But after just waiting for more than 20 minutes, he sighed and sighed, and was helpless. If he stopped in the middle of the road,

Wait a few hours or a few days, are you going to go crazy? Don't be hopeless, be more calm, be more patient, everything will come naturally and pass naturally."

"Beep...beep...beep...are you two at the station? Are you taking a taxi?" A taxi suddenly stopped in front of the two of them, and the driver rolled up the window and asked.

Wu Xiaojun looked inside the car. There was a person sitting in the passenger seat, and the two seats in the back were empty. He hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, please wait a moment."

He turned around and picked up his luggage, opened the car door, put it in gently, asked Qin Meixiang to get in, closed the door, and started the car. Sitting in the car did not bring any warmth to the two of them. There was a window behind the car.

No more, the car was speeding forward, and the cold wind rushed into the car unbridled, hitting her face like a knife. Qin Meixiang couldn't bear the bone-piercing cold, so she threw herself into Wu Xiaojun's arms and pressed her chest tightly

, absorbing the warmth, never daring to raise his head.

There were few pedestrians and not many vehicles on the road. The taxi driver was very skilled in driving through the streets and alleys, stopping in red and driving in green. In less than half an hour, they arrived at Pingxi Railway Station. The two got out of the car and jogged into the waiting hall. Waiting hall

There were men, women and children, families and families, and there were quite a lot of passengers in large and small bags. They were all staggering and exhausted, and life was noisy and chaotic. The two of them walked around twice but couldn't find a seat where they could rest, so they had to sit in the

He sat down on an old table at the exit of the bathroom.

Qin Meixiang went to the bathroom to wash her face, comb her long, messy hair, and put some light lipstick on her lips. She looked satisfied, then walked out and asked with a smile, "Xiaojun,

Look at me, am I not energetic or pretty?"

Wu Xiaojun looked carefully up and down, nodded repeatedly, and said softly, "It's really good. It's so beautiful, with an innocent expression, a clear face, an elegant demeanor, a graceful appearance, and a delicious beauty. It's even prettier than what's painted on it."

Qin Meixiang beamed with joy, looked at Wu Xiaojun intently, pursed her lips and smiled, "It's a pity that my neat clothes and appearance are just a flash in the pan. They will soon be ruined by the crowded and dirty passengers on the bus. When I get off the bus,

Maybe she will turn into a country girl who has experienced many vicissitudes of life."

At this time, some people waiting for the bus had already stood up from their seats, carried their luggage and moved to the ticket gate to line up. Wu Xiaojun laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, water produces hibiscus, and nature will carve it. Our natural conditions are good, and nothing can be changed. Hurry up.

It’s time to check in and enter the station, let’s line up and get ready to check in.” After saying that, he picked up his luggage and pulled Qin Meixiang towards the ticket gate.

Soon, the queue was full of people behind them, constantly pushing forward. From time to time, there were people in front carrying large bags and jumping in the queue, pushing back and pushing forward. There were constant noises and curses, and the scene was quite chaotic. At this time, Wuliu came over

A station manager in uniform, holding a wooden stick more than one meter long, without saying a word, hit a passenger in front of him violently, frightening the people behind him to retreat like dominoes.

Wu Xiaojun and the other two were quietly watching the ticket check instructions at the station and listening to the station announcement with great concentration. They were caught off guard by the sudden change. The middle-aged woman wearing high heels in front of them suddenly stepped back and stepped heavily on Qin Meixiang with one foot.

Her left foot hurt so much that she turned pale, grinned, and fell to the side with a cry of "Oh my God." Wu Xiaojun quickly reached out to grab Qin Meixiang's shoulder and helped her sit down on the seat next to her, "How's it going? My foot hurts."

Isn’t it great?”

Qin Meixiang's facial features were twisted into a ball, her brows were furrowed, her eyes were full of tears, she bit her lip tightly, and struggled to lift her stiff and heavy left foot, and squeezed out a few words through her teeth for a long time,

"It hurts me so much."

Seeing Qin Meixiang's painful expression, the middle-aged woman hurriedly asked, "Little sister, where did I step on you? Is it terrible? I'm really sorry. I didn't mean it."

When Qin Meixiang heard what the middle-aged woman said, she became angry and said angrily, "Why don't you have eyes and step on other people's feet? Why don't you step on your own feet?

The heel of the shoe almost crushed my toes, and you said you didn't do it on purpose. Could it be that I stretched out my toes for you to step on when I was full and had nothing to do?"

The middle-aged woman looked inelegant, her face was full of makeup, her nose was pungent, her face was solemn and she said with anger, "Little sister, you are not old, and you have a bad temper. How can you talk like this? There are so many people in front of you, and I am also affected by it."

The crowding is unbearable. I am also a victim. Who am I to get angry at? You want me to say that your foot was placed in the wrong place and you deserve to be stepped on. Could it be that I stepped on you involuntarily?"

Wu Xiaojun saw that Qin Meixiang was really in severe pain, otherwise she would not have gotten angry. The middle-aged woman was not an economical lamp. Once the tip of the needle touched the awning, the two of them would have a big fight, which would not be good for anyone. He quickly tried to dissuade her, "Sister,

After all, my sister's foot was stepped on too hard by you and it hurt so much that she said such angry words. Don't mind it. It's not easy when you go out. You should bear with each other and be considerate of each other. Besides,

We are all in a hurry to go home, who wants to cause trouble for nothing, so just say less." The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and stopped talking.

Wu Xiaojun looked down at Qin Meixiang and consoled her, "Is the pain less severe now? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Qin Meixiang said, "It's a little better than before. There should be no broken bones. Let's stop for a while. I just couldn't control the anger in my heart. I was a little angry. I didn't like her. She was so evil.

I don’t even look at what I do when I go out, and I wear high-heeled shoes that look like nails when I go out, and I’m not afraid of getting my feet sprained when I go out.”

Wu Xiaojun saw that Qin Meixiang's mood had eased, and his hanging heart slowly calmed down, "Let's not mention her anymore. There are people of all kinds, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and the train will leave soon.

We're here, why haven't we checked in yet? Could it be?" Before he could finish his words, the station broadcast sounded, and the announcer kept announcing repeatedly, "Comrade passengers, comrade passengers, K388 is sent from Xidu to Shanghai.

The delay time of the second train has not been determined, please pay attention to the announcement from the announcement and the train attendant."

Some passengers in the queue suddenly became uproar and left the queue to look for seats. Wu Xiaojun looked sad and sighed softly, "Meixiang, the weather like this can easily cause the train to be delayed. I don't know when we will arrive. It seems that the two of us are here today."

It’s not good to go out and the future is uncertain, I’m afraid it will be difficult to meet my mother safely and smoothly.”

Qin Meixiang pursed her red lips and said sternly, "Bah, bah, bah, shut your crow mouth quickly. You are not allowed to say unlucky words in the twelfth lunar month. It is the peak period of passenger transportation now. Coupled with the bad weather, it is normal for the train to be delayed. Besides,

, who often runs outside, who doesn’t encounter this kind of thing, it will happen more often in the future, you have to be calm and endure loneliness and loneliness. What’s more, you and I are still with you now, so there is no need to sigh. "

The train was delayed for about an hour, and after everyone's expectation, it finally started to check in and enter the station. The station door opened, and crowds of people rushed to the station entrance like a tide. The busy station staff were overwhelmed, and some even climbed over the railings with large bags on their shoulders.

A dozen staff armed with sticks stopped one and ran away, but nothing could stop the hurried and eager passengers.

Wu Xiaojun and Wu Xiaojun were supported by the crowds in front and behind, and they were sweating all over before they came to the ticket inspector. Before they could take the first-inspection ticket from the ticket inspector, they were pushed into the platform entrance corridor by the people behind them. A large number of them

The crowds of people, all nervous and panic-stricken, trotted all the way to the platform, just like the people in the movies who were escaping from the Japanese invaders in a hurry.

A middle-aged country woman was holding a large, bulging woven bag in her hand and holding a one-year-old girl in her arms. She was moving forward hurriedly. When she was going down the steps, the corner of the bag tripped over the steps.

The angle turned to block her right foot, and her left leg went limp and she sat on the edge of the steps. The child in her arms flew out. The middle-aged woman was so frightened that she was dumbfounded and watched helplessly as the girl climbed down the more than 20 steps.

I somersaulted to the bottom platform, my head was bruised and bleeding, and I started crying.

Qin Meixiang felt goosebumps all over her body when she saw this scene. She quickly covered her eyes and did not dare to look again, "The little girl is so miserable, so pitiful."

Wu Xiaojun was filled with fear. He held Qin Meixiang's hand tightly and carefully walked down the steps step by step to the platform. There was a person on duty every few dozen meters on the platform, holding a wooden stick in his hand and blowing a whistle constantly.

Shouting loudly, they guided the passengers to queue up and wait for the bus. Wu Xiaojun and the two passed by seven or eight boarding stations, but there were too many people at each of them. Looking ahead, they found the same situation, so they had to stand close behind the queue.

The train whistle blew longly, and the train slowly entered the station. Watching the train slowly passing by, I felt nervous because of the dense crowds in the carriage. As soon as the train stood firm, the neat queue began to stir, and people pushed to get on the train.

The conductor stood at the door of the train, looking at the crowds of people below. He hesitated for a long time before opening the door. The people below rushed up and blocked the door tightly. Those above could not get out, and those below could not get in. They were in a stalemate with each other, leaving the station staff alone.

Shouting at the top of their lungs, no one was willing to give way. They were all waiting for the right time to get off or get on the bus. At this time, a car window had just been opened, and a young man in his twenties jumped up and grabbed the window edge, and pushed upward.

Climbing into the window, five or six people got into the car in the same way.

Seeing that the train was about to start and there was not much time, Wu Xiaojun and the two were so anxious that they tried several times to change the boarding gate but failed to do so. The train start bell rang at the station, and the station manager was seen running back and forth, blowing the whistle and talking nonsense.

He yelled at the top of his voice, but still could not stop the people who climbed up the window to get into the car. In desperation, he picked up a wooden stick and kept beating the people who climbed up the window. The scene was extremely terrifying and frightening. Several people were beaten until they cried for their fathers and mothers.

Only after her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, and her hands and feet were weak, was she willing to let go. Seeing this scene, Qin Meixiang pulled Wu Xiaojun and said, "There are too many people. It seems that we can't get on this train. Safety is the first priority. Don't take the risk. Wait.

Let’s go on the next trip.”

The train made a long beep, started slowly, and quickly disappeared from sight. The two looked at each other, feeling helpless, frightened, and disappointed, all in silence. They wanted to pause for a while, waiting for the arrival of the next train, but at the station
Chapter completed!
