Chapter 125 Xia Jing eats melon
After leaving the train station, Xia Jing had tears in her eyes and muttered, "It has changed, but it seems that it has not changed."
Returning to my hometown again after many years, the suppressed excitement in the car was released at this moment.
Xia Mi looked at Suzhou in the late 1970s and felt the same emotion in her heart. In her previous life, she was also from Suzhou and had seen the prosperity of the city. Looking at it now, she just feels a sense of age.
Both of them were immersed in an indescribable emotion.
"Comrade!"
A broken male voice broke the atmosphere, and the gay man who was on the train just now appeared in sight.
"Comrade, are you from Suzhou too?"
The man hurried over to say hello, "My sister works here. She will get married tomorrow. I came here specially to attend the wedding today."
Facing the man's familiarity, Huo Jingchen was very calm, "Do you still have your wallet?"
The man touched it and nodded quickly when he touched it, "It's still there."
"Comrade, my name is Wang Chengzhang. May I ask where your home is? I would like to buy something."
"Besides money, it's against the rules to accept anything else. It's my duty to help you. Comrade Wang, you don't have to take it too seriously."
Huo Jingchen felt dizzy when she heard that people wanted to give gifts.
Wang Chengzhang then gave up his thanks, "Well, in short, I still want to thank you."
"Yeah." Huo Jingchen nodded, "Then let's take the bus first."
Wang Chengzhang watched Huo Jingchen and the others leave, holding on to his wallet tightly. The feeling of regaining what was lost has not disappeared.
Fortunately, I met a good person, otherwise the dowry for my little sister would be gone.
Xia Mi took them to take the bus and find a hotel near the former Su's house.
"Xiao Mi, you guys have a good rest. I'm going to go buy some things first and prepare to visit my teacher in the afternoon."
When she returned to her hometown, Xia Jing didn't want to rest for a moment, she just wanted to do more meaningful things.
Xia Mi is different. She doesn't have much affection for this place and stays in the hotel to rest.
Xia Jing left the hotel and found an old supply and marketing cooperative based on her past memories. The decoration inside was still similar to what she remembered.
"Comrade, please bring me a can of malted milk, toffee, and some of this pastry."
There are few people in the supply and marketing cooperative now. When Xia Jing entered, there were only two or three customers.
"Okay comrade, just wait."
The salesperson first used brown paper to help Xia Jing pack the peach cakes, and then went to get other things.
"Xia Jing?"
There was a suspicious voice, and the woman frowned and looked at her, her tone full of uncertainty.
Xia Jing looked around and found that the person in front of her looked familiar, but she just couldn't remember who he was.
The two looked at each other, and the woman opposite her tone became more determined, "You must be Xia Jing, I haven't seen you for many years, and you are finally back."
Seeing Xia Jing looking at her in confusion, the woman pointed at herself with her index finger, "I, Aunt Liu, worked as an hourly worker in your house before."
After such a reminder, Xia Jing instantly remembered who the person in front of her was.
"I'm sorry, I haven't seen you for a long time and I didn't think about it." An awkward smile appeared on Xia Jing's face.
Aunt Liu waved her hands indifferently, "I didn't recognize you just now. Your face looked familiar and your voice was familiar, but I didn't expect it was really you."
"You've really changed a lot now. It'll be great if you come back. Do you live with your brother now?"
A big change of words sums up so much.
Xia Jing smiled bitterly and shook her head in denial, "No, I just came back today."
"It'll be great when you come back. I read in the newspaper that they will arrange work for you, right?"
Aunt Liu started chatting familiarly. When another salesperson came back and saw the two chatting, she asked, "Do you know each other?"
"I know you!" Aunt Liu replied with a smile.
"Speaking of this, Mr. Xia really didn't understand why he asked you to go to such a far away place to see what you would become." Aunt Liu seemed to feel the same way and complained about Xia Jinkuo. .
"Comrade, how much does it cost?"
Xia Jing took the things and asked the price.
"A total of eighteen dollars and sixty-two cents."
Xia Jing gave the money before returning to Aunt Liu. She was silent for a moment and asked, "Aunt Liu, do you know where my brother and the others live now?"
When she first came here, she passed by her former home, but no one had lived in it for a long time.
Aunt Liu was first surprised that Xia Jing didn't know, and then quickly told her, "It's near the textile factory, next to the textile factory house."
"Xia Jing, don't your brother and others know that you are back this time?"
Xia Jing put away her things, "I didn't tell them."
"Aunt Liu, I still have things to do. I'm leaving now. I'll come and play with you next time." Xia Jing said polite words and turned to leave the supply and marketing cooperative.
The textile factory is not far from here, but I don't know whether Aunt Liu is talking about the first factory or the second factory.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Xia Jing looked up at the sky. It was still early, probably not yet noon.
She was going to try her luck at the No. 1 Textile Factory, and took her things with her to the family home of the textile factory.
After walking for almost forty minutes, Xia Jing finally found out where her eldest brother lived.
She stopped at the entrance of the alley, hesitating whether to go in or not.
"Hey, who are you?"
A woman came out of a house at the entrance of the alley. She was holding a handful of vegetables, and she seemed to be picking vegetables.
Xia Jing panicked for a moment, "I went the wrong way, comrade, I want to ask how to get to the Red Star Hotel?"
The Red Star Hotel is the hotel where they stayed.
"The Red Star Hotel is far away from us. How did you get here?"
The eldest sister looked back and forth at Xia Jing with suspicious eyes.
"I came from Qingcheng. I haven't been back to Suzhou for a long time and can't find my way."
Then the eldest sister pointed the direction to Xia Jing. Before she finished speaking, there was a quarrel in the alley.
"Xia Guoqing, I want to divorce you!"
Xia Jing's gloomy eyes lit up for a moment when she heard Xia Guoqing's name.
The eldest sister also looked towards the yard gossiping, listening with her ears raised.
"Mei Dujuan, can you please stay calm? What happened to you, Yaoyao?" the nephew's helpless voice sounded.
"Sister, what's going on?" Xia Jing asked her eldest sister. Seeing the confused look from the other side, she quickly opened the peach cake package and stuffed a piece for her eldest sister, "Sister, I'm tired of walking around, can I rest at your house? ?”
The eldest sister's eyes widened when she looked at the palm-sized Tao Su.
"Okay, just wait, I'll get the bench for you. Do you want some water?"
Xia Jing nodded, she was indeed thirsty after walking for so long.
Sitting on the bench, Xia Jing began to inquire about the current situation of her elder brother.
"The young couple in it haven't stopped quarreling for a day since they got married. The affairs in her family are even better than the movies. Before, it was the adopted daughter and her biological daughter who were quarreling, but now it's the daughter-in-law and her biological daughter who are quarreling."
When the gossip came up, the eldest sister shared the interesting things with Xia Jing while choosing the dishes.
"So complicated?"
"No, let me tell you, it's really difficult to marry a wife these days. Not only does it require money, but it's also easy to marry a housewife."
Then the eldest sister shared all the current situation of the Xia family with Xia Jing.
Xia Jing felt very comfortable after hearing this. It seemed that her eldest brother and the others were not as good as herself.
The eldest sister had been talking for an hour. Xia Jing saw that the time was almost up and took advantage of the eldest sister's opportunity to drink water and asked to leave.
