fine water spring river

Lu Chunjiang stomped his feet and squinted his eyes to see that the LED screen at the high-speed rail station was glowing red, and the numbers were blurred.

Luxi's car still has 10 minutes to arrive.

The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and there are people coming and going at the station.The trains in the province are at the old railway station in the urban area. This new station has only been built and invested for less than two years.Three years ago when Lu Chunjiang sent Lu Xi to study in Shanghai, there was no high-speed rail, so he asked someone to buy a soft sleeper, and then sent his brother on the train going east.

The cold wind was blowing in the huge waiting room, and Lu Chunjiang suspected that there was no heating at all.The weather forecast said that the lowest temperature today was minus fifteen degrees. He checked the temperature in Shanghai and it was minus two degrees. He was worried that Lu Xi didn't have a down jacket, so he brought the biggest one at home. It was black and looked like a bear. .Another bus arrived at the station, and the passengers scattered like fireworks.Lu Chunjiang's heart was beating faster and faster. In 2 minutes, he would see his younger brother in 2 minutes. He stood on tiptoe happily, let go of his shoulders, and continued to wait with his down jacket in his arms.

A mechanical female voice sounded.First, a man hurriedly squeezed out of the ticket gate, followed by a female student with a suitcase, and a woman with a baby in her arms.The flow of people is surging, and everyone is in a hurry.That's right, the day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and it's the Chinese New Year.Lu Chunjiang went forward to meet him, distinguishing among the unfamiliar faces, there was no Lu Xi, he looked anxiously, did he find the wrong place?

People are gone.The uniformed staff yawned and closed the gate.Lu Chunjiang took out his mobile phone to confirm that it was this bus.He didn't wait for anyone, so he quickly dialed. After one ring, the other party didn't answer, so he continued to call. At this time, someone slapped his shoulder on the back. When he turned around, he found a tall and thin young man, wearing a hat and Sunglasses, expression cold.

"Lu Xi?" Lu Chunjiang hesitated to admit it.I haven't seen him for two years, and Lucy never sends him photos.The young man nodded, took off his sunglasses, and Lu Chunjiang heaved a sigh of relief, "What kind of sunglasses should you wear, I've been looking for you for a long time..."

Lu Xi didn't have the surprise after reunion after a long absence, which made Lu Chunjiang very disappointed.Holding up his down jacket, he called his younger brother by his nickname, "Hey, Panpan, it's cold, I brought you a bread jacket."

"No need." Lucy turned and left.

"Why don't you use it? Fifteen degrees below zero, you're too thin to wear." Lu Chunjiang trotted after Lu Xi, "Put it on, and go out to freeze you for a while, the wind hurts—"

Lucy didn't wear that black down jacket after all.Although it was a transportation hub, there were not many passengers waiting for a taxi, and the taxi stopped for a long time.Lu Chunjiang came here by bus, and the 85 bus is very convenient.Of course he wouldn't let his younger brother go home by bus too.Lu Xi stopped the car and sat in the co-pilot's seat, while Lu Chunjiang sat in the back row and gave the driver his address.The driver heard that the accent was from a foreigner, and muttered, "There is an elevated road ahead, so we have to take a detour."

"Go around."

"It's been repaired for many years, but it hasn't been repaired yet. If I go straight through, it will be blocked."

"Row."

"I just have to say that the company stipulates that you will not complain if you have too much money, ha ha."

The driver chattered, maybe it was too lonely to drive, "Are you guys on vacation from college? Or are you working?"

Lu Chunjiang answered for his younger brother, "My younger brother is going to college, and I am working."

"Young man is very energetic, where do you study?"

This time Lu Chunjiang was very proud, and even straightened his waist, "In Shanghai."

"That's amazing! My daughter is a sophomore in high school, her grades are not good, and she was just divided into arts and sciences..."

Lu Chunjiang was a high school teacher, and when he had an occupational disease, he chatted with the driver.The driver sighed, "No wonder your brother has good grades, so you are a teacher. I don't know how to educate children, and she doesn't talk to us about anything, and she slams the door when she asks."

"Children at this age are like this, easily rebellious."

Lu Xi didn't participate in the chat, and played with his mobile phone unrelated to his business.Seeing him chatting with someone, Lu Chunjiang moved his fingers quickly.The driver followed Lu Chunjiang's instructions and drove the car into the community, "You don't have a camera here, do you? I'm going the wrong way."

"What, there's no such thing as retrograde or non-retrograde. It's the community's own road. The one-way street was drawn by the neighborhood committee. Don't worry, the traffic police won't check it." Lu Chunjiang promised with a smile, "I've lived here for more than 20 years. , I haven’t seen the traffic police come to check yet.”

A total of 29 yuan was spent.Lu Chunjiang didn't like to use a wallet, and banknotes were neatly stacked in his pocket.As soon as he took out the money, Lu Xi over there had already paid the fare, and got out of the car without saying a word, carrying his schoolbag. Lu Chunjiang hurried after him, not forgetting to say "thank you" to the driver.

The community has newly paved roads, cleared the weeds in front of the unit building, poured cement, and drew lines to serve as parking spaces.A few stray cats lay lazily on the heating pipes to keep warm. The insulation layer suffered damage and was scratched to pieces, with some pieces hanging in the air.Lu Xi looked around, and Lu Chunjiang said, "For 'Chuangwei', all those grasses and trees have been pulled up." He knew that Lu Xi was looking for the fig tree, "I planted a new one in the flowerpot. , put it on the balcony."

A woman in her 50s came out with a gray and white dog. When she saw the brothers of the Lu family, she greeted them warmly, "Hey, isn't this Panpan? But you're back, your brother always misses you."

Lu Xi smiled, he knew this woman, Wang Meilan from Unit [-], "Auntie."

"I've grown taller, but I'm still thin." Wang Meilan blinked at Lu Chunjiang, "Give your brother more stew! Can you eat comfortably at school? The food in the cafeteria is not nutritious..."

"Yes," Lu Chunjiang agreed.This is his father's dormitory building, upstairs and downstairs are all his father's colleagues.He and Lucy grew up under the noses of these people, and they couldn't be more familiar with each other.Wang Meilan's mouth is broken, but her heart is not bad.After seeing her off, Lu Chunjiang complained softly to Lu Xi, "Say a few more words, Aunt Lan..."

He didn't continue, but Lucy's contemptuous eyes made him shut his mouth.Lu's house is in Unit 301 [-]. He opened the door in silence, turned on the light in the living room, and then tried his best to ignore Lu Xi's indifference, and hurriedly brought slippers and clothes, "You wait a while before taking off your coat, come out Khan, don’t catch a cold.” Then he couldn’t help asking, “Why didn’t you bring a suitcase back?”

"I have to go back on the fifth day."

Lu Chunjiang's heart sank, standing under the bright light, he suddenly felt very boring.

"Are you so busy?"

Lucy took off his sweater, revealing a gray shirt, and said concisely, "Busy."

Lu Chunjiang said, "That's fine." He folded the black feather tamarin suit and stuffed it back into the wardrobe. "Go tell your parents first, and grandma. You haven't been back for two years—"

"I burn paper for them every year."

Lucy bowed in front of the portraits of her parents and grandma, and changed the water for the cup.Lu Chunjiang packed up his clothes, "What do you want to eat? I bought vegetables. The shredded potatoes are cut up, and I soaked them in water. Do you want soup? Or do you want to eat dumplings?"

Lu Xi started playing with her mobile phone again without looking up, "I ordered takeaway, you don't need to be busy." Then she returned to her room with her schoolbag in her hand, and closed the door with a "bang".Lu Chunjiang stood outside the door, thinking of the gossip and gossip among the neighbors.

His cheap brother may really be raised for nothing.
