I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 3 3000 Kilometers Away
Not long after leaving the urban area of ​​Shanghai, Lao Huang sent me the money for the train ticket that he hadn't had time to refund to me via WeChat, and also gave me an extra [-], which was the board and lodging subsidy he had promised before.But I only charged the fare, because even with board and lodging, it would not cost [-], and my consumption is not high.

I texted him back: "Don't give me the money for the board and lodging."

"The car needs gas, tolls and so on. You paid for Sisi."

I subconsciously looked around and realized that her original name was Sisi.At this time, Lao Huang sent another message: "You must take good care of her, and pay special attention to safety on the road, and don't make any mistakes."

I smelled an unusual smell, but I was not in the mood to ask more questions.

I collected the 6000 yuan, and then said to her who was driving: "Your Uncle Huang just transferred 6000 yuan to me, saying it was tolls and gas money, but I will definitely not use that much when I arrive in Dali. Pass it on to you."

"What the hell? I don't want his money."

Seeing that she didn't care, I didn't know what to do, but I had fulfilled my obligation to inform, and I chose to remain silent for the next moment, and then I focused on the scenery that flashed by outside the car window.

After half an hour, Lao Huang sent another message: "Mi Gao, please ask Sisi for me how long she wants to play outside this time."

"Isn't it more appropriate for you to ask yourself these things?"

"This child is very self-willed. If we communicate with her directly, she will feel that we are in charge of her, so she will not tell us the truth."

I finally couldn't hold back anymore, and asked: "...She can't be your illegitimate daughter, can she?"

"Your boy... Sisi is my prospective daughter-in-law."

"That shouldn't be the case. What about your son? Why didn't you accompany her to Dali?"

"If you study abroad, you have to study for another year before you can return to Shanghai."

When Lao Huang said this, I immediately felt a sense of distance that "friends and wives should not be bullied", and subconsciously leaned against the car door, and then began to reply: "It used to be fishing for rich men, but now the wind direction has turned, and the popular Are you close to the little rich woman?"

"The right family is right, the right family is right."

"You can pull it down."

I looked at the WeChat dialog box and smiled, despising Lao Huang in my heart. After working together for 3 years, I think I know him quite well. He is an old fritter who can integrate his smoothness into the workplace very well, but his talent is really lacking, so until now, he is still just a member of the company. Department manager.

If I also use a snobbish eye to judge, with such a little social status, how can he talk to a girl who received a million-dollar luxury car as a birthday gift at the age of 20?To put it bluntly, this is a kind of flattery, and the ultimate goal is an asymmetrical marriage.

I turned down the volume in the car a little, and finally asked Sisi: "It's very convenient to fly, why do you have to drive to Dali?"

"I need a vehicle to get there."

"Are you going to stay there for a long time?"

"That's right, I have friends who open bars over there, and I really yearn for their free life." After thinking for a while, she said, "It may also be that I don't like the pace of life in Shanghai so much, you don't even know The people around me are so annoying. The worst is my parents, who always force me to study abroad. Let me tell you, my life is only a few decades, and I can’t fully use it to improve myself. I don’t enjoy it at all. Bar?"

"But your Uncle Huang and your parents thought you were traveling by car and were waiting for you to go back early."

"Do you know what a tactic is to slow down the army? When I plunge headlong into the boiling city of Dali, they don't want to talk to me about studying abroad. They can talk to me first." "Uncle, what about you, why did you go to Dali? "

My emotions fluctuated very strongly in an instant, and I really wanted to light a cigarette at this moment, but in this burst of uncontrollable self-desires, what I saw was a different life, although we The destination is Dali.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Sisi said again: "It must be very tragic, right?"

I didn't have any desire to tell, so I just replied: "There is a service area in front, I'll go down and smoke a cigarette."

Sisi glanced at me sideways: "You are really boring...Actually, you are not much older than me, but why do I call you uncle when I meet you? Like the kind of... old man who's going to die."

"You let me go down to smoke a cigarette first. As for uncle or grandpa, call him whatever you like."

"I won't let you smoke..."

As she said that, she stepped on the accelerator and passed the Z4 that had been driving in front in an instant. The signboard of the service area also shrunk in the rearview mirror, and my desire was defeated by her. capricious.

……

After passing Hangzhou, she finally stopped at the service area because she needed to go to the bathroom, and I finally had the opportunity to sit under the umbrella outside the supermarket and light a cigarette.

Not long after, she came out with a lot of food in her arms. She handed the car keys to my hand and said, "I'll let you drive later, I want to eat."

I looked at the convenience bag she was holding and asked, "Did you bring these out of the toilet?"

She patted me casually: "You are too disgusting, don't you let people eat well?"

I finally smiled at her, took a deep puff of the cigarette, and she sat down beside me and asked, "Uncle, can we go to Wuhan today?"

"We don't pass through Wuhan."

"Let's take a detour to play. I'll treat you to a duck neck."

"If you go to Wuhan, you have to walk 300 kilometers more."

"I'm not in a hurry, and you don't seem to be in a hurry...Let me tell you, Wuhan is really fun, and I have a college classmate over there. Her family runs a restaurant, and you can eat anything delicious. do it."

Before I agreed, she threw the pile of food to me, then dragged me into the car, and forcibly set the destination to Wuhan on the navigation. Of course, I couldn't hold back such a wayward girl , So I gave up the mood of rushing, and then regarded this unnecessary journey as a journey.

……

The car was galloping on the highway at a speed of 120 yards. Sisi put the co-driver's seat down completely, and crossed her two long legs on the center console. It was very comfortable.While putting potato chips in her mouth, she sent a voice message to an unknown so-and-so.

"Uncle, I have asked my classmates to arrange it. What do you want to eat?"

"Is there Mengpo soup?"

Sisi stared wide-eyed and said with emotion: "Are you really planning to die in peace?"

"Everyone has things they want to forget. I really want to forget how you abducted me to Wuhan right now. My eyes are only on Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake in Dali."

"You say that, do you regret taking my ride?"

"A bit."

"Don't be so busy regretting it, there are surprises everywhere in life, maybe you don't want to leave after arriving in Wuhan."

……

The journey on the first day was very smooth. Sisi and I walked along the viaduct and entered WH urban area at [-] o'clock. I parked the car at the door of a fast hotel, then handed the car keys to her and said: "Go get together with your friends, don't play too late, and leave on time at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Didn't I agree to treat you to the duck neck? My classmates have already arranged it."

"You classmates are reminiscing about the past, what should I mix in with you, you just have to have fun."

"Are you going to be such a disappointment?!"

When she expressed dissatisfaction, I had already got out of the car and took out the backpack containing the toiletries from the trunk, then went back to the window of the driver's cab, handed the phone to her, and said, "Add a WeChat Well, it's convenient to get in touch."

While muttering, she scanned the QR code and told me: "My name is Yang Sisi, you can write it as Yangyang, that's what my friends call me."

"to make."

"What about you, is your name Mi Gao? I don't think I've ever met anyone with the surname Mi."

"Do I need to get a pseudonym with you, a girl?"

"That's fine, I'll call you Mi Gao first, and when you live like you should be at your age, I'll call you Mi Gao."

……

After Yang Sisi drove away, I went to an express hotel to get a room, and then walked aimlessly along the Yangtze River. After walking for about an hour, I stopped at a water area with the fewest boats. On the guardrail of the bridge, facing the wind blowing from the river, ignoring the prosperity of the city.

I heard that how prosperous a city is, people who walk alone on the avenue will feel lonely. We all seem to be missing something in these big cities that lack everything.Maybe it's a sense of belonging, maybe it's faith...

I took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it, and suddenly I felt uneasy, because I thought of my parents who were far away in Sichuan. He even left Shanghai as a loser.

Amidst the sirens of passing ships, I gently took out the bank card that Wang Lei had left me from my pocket, which seemed to have become my last confidence.

I finally took out my mobile phone from my pocket and wanted to tell my family the truth about what happened recently. I didn't want to go to Dali with such a heavy burden on my heart. This is not what it should be like to live and work in peace.

Just as I put my hand on the dial key and was about to call, a voice invitation dialog box popped up in WeChat, which was sent by that girl Yang Sisi.

……

The sound of the voice invitation has been ringing in my ears along with the wind on the riverside. I am like a deflated ball. I no longer have the courage to call my family to explain the situation. I even feel scared. I dialed the phone, I am afraid that what I am facing at this time is endless guilt and disappointment from my parents.

I should be more careful about this matter.Unless you have to, you must not tell them that you have broken up with Lu Jia, because they place too many hopes on me, I am already suffering enough, how can I let them suffer with me.

I touched my neckline subconsciously, and then I accepted Yang Sisi's voice invitation amidst the sirens of passing ships.

"what happened?"

Yang Sisi's tone was full of anxiety, she said: "Uncle, I can't find my ID card, what should I do if the hotel won't register me?"

"A driver's license is also fine."

"I can't find my driver's license. I guess my parents did something wrong. They don't want me to go to Dali at all."

"You don't check before you go out."

Yang Sisi replied with tears: "How could I have thought that they would make such a bad move, please help me find a way."
