Chapter 609 Pick-up
The two people waiting at the exit saw that fewer and fewer people were coming out of the exit, and Shitou couldn't help but get anxious.
"There are fewer and fewer people, and we haven't waited for anyone yet. Could it be that the last train was delayed and we missed the next one?
So in this case, when will it arrive?
The team leader said that the doctor invited by the hospital to perform surgery on the captain had arrived early this morning and was waiting for my cousin to come and make a decision on whether to perform the surgery or not.
If this takes too much time, I'm afraid the doctor we invited from out of town will be anxious to go back."
The deputy captain also frowned, “If the last train was late, there’s nothing we can do.
Let's wait a little longer.
If I really can't wait for anyone, I will go to the station to ask the staff and ask them how long the train from Beijing to Kunming was delayed, which was supposed to arrive yesterday afternoon.
From this, we can infer which train the captain's cousin will take in Kunming and when she will arrive here. "
"Given the current situation, this is the only way."
Liu Jingxue, who heard this with her spiritual sense, realized that it was time for her to go out.
Bending down and picking up the three large packages that had just been placed on the ground, Liu Jingxue walked towards the exit at a normal pace.
When she walked out of the exit, although she knew that the two people were there to pick her up, she couldn't just walk towards them.
Standing at the exit, she looked around as if confused, and after looking around, she found two soldiers holding a wooden sign with her name on it.
Although Shi Tou and the deputy captain were talking in a low voice, they did not forget the purpose of their coming here today. They kept their eyes on the exit, specifically staring at the young women, to see which one was their target today.
According to the tour leader, the captain's cousin came alone, but there were indeed many young women traveling out of the exit, but they were all traveling in groups of others, no one was traveling alone.
It's not surprising when you think about it. This era is not as safe as the later generations. A single woman traveling far away alone, no matter how brave she is, doesn't have the courage to do so. I don't know how the captain's cousin dared to do that.
Shitou was called by the team leader to assign this task yesterday. He confirmed with the team leader several times before he was sure that he had not heard it wrong.
Suddenly, a young woman walking alone at the exit caught the attention of both men.
Shitou raised his chin slightly and gestured to the woman, "Deputy Captain, there is a young woman alone over there. Do you think she is the person we want to pick up?"
Looking at the man's fashionable outfit, the deputy captain found it unlikely.
He hesitated and said, "That shouldn't be the case. The captain's cousin has been working in the countryside in Northeast China for two years. Even if she hasn't been assimilated by the country people, she can't be so fashionable.
Only a handful of people in Beijing can afford to wear the clothes she wears.”
"But we have waited until now, and she is the only one who meets the requirements of being a lone young woman."
The two were talking there, but they noticed that the woman looked around and saw the wooden sign they were holding. After a moment's hesitation, she carried her luggage and walked straight towards them.
Looking at the young woman getting closer and closer to them, the two were dumbfounded after seeing her appearance clearly.
"Deputy Captain, isn't it said that she has been in the countryside for more than two years? She should be dark-skinned and look like a country girl.
But why is she so white? She is the whitest and most beautiful girl I have ever seen.
How could this be someone who has been in the countryside for more than two years? "
"You ask me how I know.
Aren't you also from the countryside? You know what rural girls are like better than I do.
Besides, how many girls have you met?
Not to mention you, even I have never seen such a white and beautiful girl.
Especially her temperament, which gives people a feeling of being ethereal and otherworldly.”
"If this is really the captain's cousin, how did the captain's family raise her? How did they raise such a beautiful girl?" Shitou sighed.
“Since she’s my cousin, she’s definitely not raised by the captain’s family, but by her parents.
Stop talking, people are coming over here.”
Liu Jingxue walked up to the two of them, smiled sweetly at them, put down the package she was carrying, and greeted them.
"Hello, comrades. Are you here to pick up Liu Jingxue?"
As she spoke, she pointed to the wooden sign held by the deputy captain.
"Yes, yes, we are here to pick up Comrade Liu Jingxue Liu on the orders of our leader.
Excuse me, are you Comrade Liu Jingxue?" the deputy chief asked first.
"My name is Liu Jingxue.
If you came here to pick up Liu Jianjun's family, then you should have come to pick me up.
By the way, I have my ID here, do you want to check it?"
After saying that, Liu Jingxue opened her shoulder bag, pretended to take out her household registration book after going to the countryside, and handed it to the two.
When the two heard that this person even mentioned the captain's name, they knew it must be this person.
But to be on the safe side, the deputy captain took the household registration booklet handed over by Liu Jingxue and checked it carefully.
There was indeed no problem, the deputy captain returned the household registration booklet to Liu Jingxue.
After Liu Jingxue took the household registration booklet, she stuffed it into her bag and put it into the space.
"Hello, Comrade Liu, his name is Zhao Sixi, and my name is Chen Ruijie, and we are both members of the team under the captain.
By the way, our captain is your cousin Liu Jianjun."
"Hello, Comrade Zhao, hello, Comrade Chen," Liu Jingxue greeted them hurriedly.
"Comrade Liu, let's go to the hospital now. The hospital is waiting for you to make a decision."
"no problem."
The two of them prepared to take Liu Jingxue's luggage.
Just now, they were shocked by Liu Jingxue's appearance and temperament, and didn't pay attention to her luggage. After they looked down and saw her luggage clearly, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Comrade Liu, you carried so many things along the way and drove all the way here from the Northeast?" Shi Tou exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, didn't my second brother say that he was seriously injured? I thought he must take good care of himself, so I brought some extra things with me.
If I come here and there is no place to buy it, I will just bring everything I can think of here.”
Chen Ruijie was surprised and said, "Other things are fine, but how did you bring so many live poultry?"
"Under the seat. Many people on the train do this."
Shitou nodded. "Some people on the train did that, but they only had a few at most. But you brought so many. Aren't you afraid that others might have an opinion?"
Liu Jingxue pretended not to understand. "What's your opinion? They were very quiet along the way. They didn't make much noise and didn't disturb anyone."
"With so many live poultry, aren't you worried that people will accuse you of speculating?"
"What's there to be afraid of? I have a letter of introduction from the production team, which states that I am going to the army to take care of sick soldiers. Who dares to object?
Moreover, most of these are pheasants and rabbits, which are running all over the mountains in Northeast China. If anyone is greedy, they can just go into the mountains and catch them themselves.
As for other poultry, our production team set up a farm and we exchanged them with the production team using work points.
If anyone wants it, they can ask their unit to buy it from the production team.
Our production team is thinking of selling the poultry we raise so that we can spend the winter there."
The two were persuaded by Liu Jingxue and no longer felt that there was anything unreasonable about her bringing so many live poultry, so they bought all three packages.
When I picked it up, I found that the package was really heavy.
They had seen her carrying three things by herself and walking towards them easily, so they thought they were not very heavy. They did not gather much strength at the beginning and were unable to lift them at the first attempt.
The two men bent down and looked at each other, and saw surprise and confusion in each other's eyes.
After gathering their strength, the two finally lifted the package.
Chen Ruijie mentioned one, pointed to the car in the distance with his left hand, and said to Liu Jingxue, "Comrade Liu, the car is over there.
You and Shitou wait in the car. I'll make a phone call and tell the boss that I got your message. They're still waiting for your news."
"Ok, no problem."
After putting all the packages in the trunk, Chen Ruijie left to make a phone call.
Shitou looked at the bag of live poultry that had not cried out until now and said in surprise, "These little creatures are still quiet. They haven't cried out for so long."
"I've already told you that they are very quiet. They didn't bark during the entire trip. So, apart from the people who watched me get on the train, I'm afraid that no one in the same car knew that I brought so many live poultry."
