Lin Yi was very excited when he thought about going back to his hometown. After all, he hadn't gone back for more than a year. The last time he went back was during the summer vacation in 2000. ^^Although the place where Lin Yi and the others live is not very far from their hometown, a few hundred kilometers at most, it only takes three or four hours by train. But because of some special reasons. For example, my father used to be too busy at work. There were other more trivial things. They didn't go back during the Chinese New Year and summer vacation last year. Now whenever Lin Yi thinks of his relatives in his hometown, he always feels depressed and melancholy. Going back to my hometown now is the same as when a wanderer returned home in ancient times, with that kind of anticipation and excitement. You may be too excited to sleep on your first night home.
Of course, Lin Yi is not so excited yet, but he still suffers from slight insomnia. \Lying under the quilt, Linyi's mind wandered to the relatives at home. "Grandparents, grandparents, and several aunts who are very good to me, and uncles who are very good to me. And uncles. As for the cousins, not to mention." Lin at home Yi is the eldest, which is actually inseparable from the fact that his mother is the eldest. Every time I go back, my cousins ??always chase after me and play with me. Thinking that those little marbles would be spinning around for him again after he returned, Lin Yi felt very excited and excited So Lin Yi kept doing things like this all night long. I don't know what time it was, but he went home because he was really sleepy.
??In the morning when it¡¯s just dawn. Lin Yi felt someone pat him lightly, but because he didn't have a good rest last night, he couldn't open his eyes at all. \But then he knew that the family might be preparing to go out, and now he called himself up to eat something, and they could be on their way. Lin Yi struggled to straighten up from the bed and rubbed his blurred eyes vigorously. However, after rubbing it, it didn't have any good effect. On the contrary, the vision became blurry. "What time is it, Mom?" Lin Yi grabbed the clothes he had dragged next to him yesterday and put them on. "It's already past eight o'clock now. We contacted the car to pick us up at nine o'clock." Mother Lin stood at the door and looked at Lin Yi who was getting dressed and said with a smile. "Hmm!" Lin Yi nodded and continued to get dressed. Winter time is like this. It's already eight o'clock in the morning, but it still looks like it's just dawn. You know, in the summer, the sun has already appeared before six o'clock. "This is the jet lag!" Lin Yi thought mentally. \
"We were lucky. The car your dad was looking for happened to come from Huaibei, Anhui. I heard that the man also came back to celebrate the New Year, but his hometown seems to be here. So after the driver saw the man off, he was about to go back yesterday. Unexpectedly, you Dad found him right away. Because this was considered a return trip, the driver didn¡¯t ask us for any money, plus the fare and customs fee, it was more than 100 yuan. But the driver had one request, and that was at nine o¡¯clock We have to go out when the time comes. Maybe the driver has something to do in the afternoon." Mother Lin said when she saw Lin Yi who was still struggling with his clothes on the bed. "So hurry up, put on your clothes, wash up and come to eat quickly. It's almost nine o'clock." After hearing what his mother said, Lin Yi couldn't help but speed up getting dressed. Winter clothes are too thick and it's hard to wear them. kind of hard. Lin Yi took great pains to do this. Especially if there is a little sweat on your feet, it will be even more troublesome to put on pants. \"Hey, should I buy the kind of clothes that are very warm if you put on one or two layers? These clothes are really troublesome."
Although he was complaining in his heart, Lin Yi still put on his clothes as quickly as possible, then rushed into the bathroom, washed his face, brushed his teeth and put some water outside, all within three minutes. Then Lin Yi walked into the kitchen. It is said that although Lin Yi's family is rich, the quality of breakfast is still not improved. Look at the noodles in the bowl. Lin Yi sighed and took out a few ham sausages and a pack of pickled mustard from a cook. All this stuff was paid for with dad¡¯s food money. In the past, my father's food expenses were basically used to receive daily necessities such as oil, flour and rice. But now, under Lin Yi's suggestion, they all turned into snacks like these. \With the help of pickled mustard and ham sausage, the noodles suddenly become more flavorful. Lin Yi drank two large bowls in one breath. However, he ate one pack of mustards and three ham sausages. Patting himself for a slightly bulging belly, Lin Yi let out a sigh of satisfaction. This meal was really satisfying.
"Xiaoyi, do you have anything left to pack? Look for it quickly. If it's not there, let's go." At this time, Father Lin had already picked up a big bag, which contained the things he bought yesterday. Mother Lin was still holding a small package, which contained the clothes they needed to take home and wear in the past few days. Lin Feng didn't show any weakness and also carried a small bag of things, but it contained snacks. Lin Yi looked around and found that he really didn't have anything.?'s. But when he glanced at his notebook, he realized that he had forgotten this most important thing. \So he picked up his laptop bag. "I only need to hold one thing, and there seems to be nothing else. Besides, if it is missing, why don't we go buy it?"
"Hey, buy, buy, buy, you will know what is missing and buy it. Don't we just have more money in our family now? Look at how lavishly you spend money now, don't you feel distressed!" Although! It is said that Lin's mother has accepted the fact that their family has become rich, but his consumption philosophy has not changed yet. In his heart, he still remembers the life when money was not much. This is why Lin Yi can only drink noodles when he wakes up in the morning. Reason. Mother Lin now feels a little sad when she sees her son spending money lavishly. "Haha, Mom, although we have spent money, aren't we still making money? Why are we saving so much money? We must know how to consume.\ This is also called the development of the Chinese market Don't say that the money is saved for us. Selling a house, marrying a wife, now my money can buy dozens of houses, marry hundreds" Lin Yi didn't say the last two words. At first, he continued the above words quite smoothly, but when he said that It felt a little awkward after just two words, so he wisely kept his mouth shut.
What Lin Yi just said is actually to promote the consumption concept of future generations. After listening to Lin Yi's words, Mother Lin also felt that it made sense. He also knew that his ideas were a bit backward, but seeing the money being thrown away like that, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Of course, she already had to work hard to change her current consciousness. "You can spend money, and you can paint a lot, but it must be used in beneficial ways. Spending money carelessly will never be allowed." The four of them walked out like this, and saw Lin Yi's house on the road. The neighbors inside were curious and greeted them. \At the same time asked where they were going. Father Lin and Mother Lin also responded enthusiastically to the neighbors' questions. But the two little guys didn't seem to be in such a mood. Of course, they are only targeting the kind of people they can't stand. You must know that not everyone among Lin Yi's neighbors is a good person, and there are some bullies among them. The two brothers usually don't bother to pay attention to such people.
When he was at the door, Lin Yi noticed a taxi parked there. Looking at the license plate, he saw that it was indeed a car from Anhui Province. Because there is the word "Wan" behind it. When he got out of the car, there was a middle-aged man standing near the car. As soon as he looked around blankly, Lin Yi knew that the other person must be the driver. Father Lin hurriedly walked up to the driver and took out a box of Chinese cigarettes from his pocket. \Speaking of these Chinese cigarettes, I have to mention that Mr. Lin goes out to socialize every day, and this cigarette was brought back from socializing. He took one out of the cigarette case and gave it gently to the taxi driver. The middle-aged driver originally wanted to say hello when he saw Father Lin coming, but when he saw the cigarette being offered to him, he quickly took it. Then he took out a lighter from his pocket and lit his own cigarette, and then helped Lin's father light the cigarette. Finally, he put the cigarette in his mouth and took a long puff. "Haha, this is the most expensive Chinese cigarette. It tastes different from the Huangshan cigarettes that cost five yuan a box here." The driver smiled heartily. From his accent, Linyi was even more sure that this person was them. A fellow countryman. Remember the driver to look at Lin Yi and the others. "Brother (the driver is slightly older than Lin's father), this is your family. \Are you going to go back to celebrate the New Year? Haha, it's good to celebrate the New Year together. I'm anxious to go back today. Although it's still some time before the New Year, but I have to prepare for it in advance. To be honest, if I hadn't met you, a fellow villager, I would have gone back yesterday!" The driver was a genuine person, and he kept smiling when he spoke.
"Haha, I haven't been back to my hometown for almost two years. Now I have to go back to celebrate the New Year with my family and have fun together." Lin's father also said with a smile on his face. To be honest, anyone who has been away from home for almost two years would want to go back. After smoking a cigarette, the driver opened the door and walked into the car. Started the car's motive. Lin Yi and his family all sat in the car. Then drive far away along this road full of coal dust. I don¡¯t know how long they drove along the way, but Lin Yi and Lin Feng didn¡¯t feel anything anyway. The reason was that they were holding Lin Yi¡¯s computer and watching a movie. Although Lin¡¯s father did not join the movie-watching group. But he did chat with the driver out front. I don't know how much time passed, but Lin Yi felt hungry. She took out a bag of potato chips from the small bag Lin Feng carried on her back and started to nibble on it. Linyi usually doesn¡¯t eat these snacks, but the snacks taste really good, and they can fill your stomach when you need them most.
Finally, when passing by a toll station, the car stopped. It seems that this place (although there are many toll stations on the road, I only write about the main roads) is the junction of Shandong Province and Jiangsu Province. over-receiptLin's father paid for the bus stop because they had already agreed that Lin Yi and his family would pay for the gas and the toll booths on the road. The driver was only responsible for sending them back safely. After entering Xuzhou, it is not far from Lin Yi's hometown. They can get back in an hour's drive at most. Of course, there is a similar toll point at the junction of Anhui Province and Jiangsu Province. However, the driver did not pass there. Instead, he turned into a village two to three hundred meters in front of the toll station, and then went around two places away. However, they still encountered a roadblock in the village, which was the so-called villager toll station.
A thick wooden stick stopped majestically on the path!.
