Chapter 93 North to Chengdu

The road construction in the village has come to an end for the time being. Now we only need skilled people to build the drainage ditches, and then lay concrete on the road. There is also the need to make some cement boards to cover the drainage ditches. No more

A lot of labor is needed.

Because the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two days, I have to hurry up and give my brothers a brief explanation of the family affairs. Then I took a van to Shunhe Railway Station and took the train to Chengdu.

I don’t know why, although it’s not the Spring Festival, the trains are one word “crowded”, two words “crowded”, and three words “too crowded”. I don’t know why there are always so many people taking the train.

Fortunately, I was "empty-handed" this time, so I was very relaxed. When I got on the train, everyone was crowded at the end of the carriage. The end of the carriage was exactly where the train bathroom was. The smell was very irritating to the nose and eyes.

Molecules, as the train starts and the air flow drives, everyone has nowhere to hide and nowhere to escape. Thinking about it makes me feel helpless. This is just like our life, sometimes it is so willful and unscrupulous to destroy us, but we

But there is no room for resistance, no room for choice, I can only endure it silently, wait silently, and let it end as soon as possible!

As the train enters normal operation, the sound of "clang, clang, clang, clang" accompanies the train as it shuttles through the mountains. It drills tunnels and crosses bridges... Some of the people stuck at the joints dispersed to both ends to find a place to stay.

"Point", some just want to find a place to put their bags, while others simply stand motionless at the end of the knot.

In the past, you could sometimes buy "seat tickets" when taking a train, and sometimes you could only buy "station tickets," which meant "no seats." Today, it's also "no seats." In fact, many people have strong opinions about "no seat" tickets.

Yes, including me. The most important thing is that the ticket prices for "seatless" tickets and "seat tickets" are the same. The difference is that "seat tickets" have seats, while "seatless" tickets have no seats. But my personal opinion

It's always trivial. The railway department always has a "I am the best in the world" face. Whether you like to sit or not, you have no better choice or other choice anyway.

Every time I take a train, it is very interesting to see the eyes of those with "seat tickets" looking at the people with "no seat" tickets. The "happiness" and "sense of superiority" expressed in their eyes

, sometimes people feel that there is some inexplicable "joyfulness" and feel very funny. Sometimes people feel very "ridiculous", after all, everyone is passively accepting the "mysterious smell" coming from the toilet in the same carriage.

"Aromatherapy", as well as the smell of sweat in the carriage, the smell of feet, the smell of instant noodles, the smell of beer, braised chicken, and the smell of various fermented peels and garbage...

I think if conditions permit, I never want to take a train again. But I feel a little ridiculous because I don’t even have a stable income. What qualifications do I have to complain about poor train service? As a flight attendant said:

"If you dislike the crowd, dislike the smell, dislike this, dislike that, if you can, don't take the train! There's no one forcing you to take the train. Take a taxi! Go take a plane! That one won't be crowded, that one

It doesn’t stink…”

In fact, I think that maybe this steward is not talking about the passengers. She may be talking about herself, maybe it is a hysterical venting of work. After all, passengers only take the train temporarily, even if they are frequent train users, they do not take it every day.

Train. But they work and live on the train every day, month, and year. Their lives are tied to the train. Who can understand their pain, their pain and helplessness?

Anyway, I don’t know what other people think. In my heart, I sympathize with these flight attendants. Although some flight attendants are so "philistine" and "treacherous", it cannot erase the cuteness of most flight attendants. So,

Every time I take a train, I try my best to do something for them. Actually, it’s nothing. I just pick up a broom and help the conductor in the car I’m in clean the car.

Usually at this time, two voices will float in the carriage. One is appreciation, and the other is ridicule. I don’t care what others say. I just need to do what I feel. The flight attendants are quite welcoming of my behavior.

Yes, after all, they are indeed tired, after years and months

Many people work and live on the train. Their social circle has become as small as a carriage. And the people in the carriage are like the wind outside the carriage window, always flowing and blowing. You cannot make a stable friend.

And the small train has become a mobile "society."

Wherever there is a society, there are "rules" that you can see and cannot see. However, you may not have the opportunity to go deep into it, and naturally you will not be able to pry into the "mysteries". You can only "hear hearsay" and spread rumors.

I was very lucky today. I guess the flight attendant was in a good mood. Maybe she saw that I was still energetic, so she actually invited me to sit in her cabin. Hey, the cabin is actually quite mysterious to me as a passenger.

place. After all, I have never visited it.

It turns out that the cabin is a very small space. A space of about one square meter is the cabin. There is a small workbench, a small seat, some communication equipment and some storage boxes. One person

It's a little spacious when you sit inside, but it seems a bit crowded when two people sit inside.

"Curiosity" is satisfied.

The two of us were squeezed inside, which actually made it a little awkward. She also felt a little hot, because I saw large areas of her shirt soaked with sweat.

I said, "Your clothes are all wet. How about I go out and you change clothes?"

When she saw that I cared about her, she smiled and said, "No need to change, I'm used to it. If I change it, it will still get wet again after a while." But there was some helplessness in her smile.

After chatting with her all over the place, I exited her cabin. I found a break and squeezed to the window to look at the scenery outside the car window, in a daze.

The most annoying shouts of "melon seeds, peanuts, white wine, cigarettes, poker, lighters..." sounded familiar in my ears again. Every time at this time, people in the aisle would be forced to tighten their bellies and give in to the train vendors.

Give way

"Passage". It's just that people will be squeezed so hard that they can't breathe. I was also squeezed mercilessly and pressed against the doors and windows of the aisle. It felt really uncomfortable. Moreover, I was very afraid of breaking the window glass.

Yes, you threw me off the train.

Fortunately, the window was not broken and I did not fall off the train.

As the announcer's sweet voice came from the train announcement, "Dear passengers and friends, the train is about to arrive at Chengdu North Station. If you need to get off, please bring your belongings and prepare to get off in advance..."
