Chapter 1552 [1551] Capital Tourism

Although Xiumin really wanted to go to the capital, she had no money and didn't want to cause trouble for Ding Wei, so she chose to reject her.

Ding Wei was speechless and even joked: "Look, you can do it. Don't you think it's too late to tell me this now? You've already got on my pirate ship, so let's not talk about it so real. Look, remember your small account book, it won't hurt if you add a few more strokes, right? The opportunity is rare, let's go!"

Well, in the end, he even used to act coquettishly, Chen Xiumin looked at her helplessly.

"You want to laugh at me, it's equivalent to not being afraid of biting if there are too many lice? The more you keep the accounts in this account book, it's fine if we separate in the future. If we can't separate, I can't pay it back in the year of the monkey and horse months?"

"If you can't pay it back, you can't pay it back. No one must ask you to pay it back. You are serious about it here. Let's go and relax. We have been tired for two years. Let's walk around and look at the outside world. Reading thousands of books is better than traveling thousands of miles. It's also idle!"

Because the process of waiting for the notice is the most crazy, Chen Xiumin didn't want to wait at home. She just said nothing but said nothing, and was taken into the ditch by Ding Wei. Her family originally disagreed. Ding Wei personally went to find her grandparents in her previous life and said that grandma was actually easy to talk to. It was this grandpa who couldn't get in. He said all the good things. Finally, he said, "Go, I don't have money to give it to you!"

In the end, the three aunts and grandmothers of the eldest and second aunts raised the trip for their mother. They were really helpless. After all, there were many children at home and the conditions were there. The grandfather who earned more money was the one who earned more money. He was stingy for a day or two. Usually, he was very tight at grandmother and could ask for money. He would not give it to you if he didn't say that he was ugly.

Fortunately, Ding Wei was so proud that she brought Chen Xiumin here. Who told her to receive a dividend of 20,000 yuan after the college entrance examination?

Why so many? Because her works have become popular across the country, and audio novels are broadcast on national TV stations. Although she was not the one who spoke at the beginning of the third year of junior high school, the fan base is strong, and parents and teachers recommend it, and they can’t even earn less!

I got 15,000 yuan at the beginning of the year, and another 20,000 yuan came in July. Do you think she would care about Chen Xiumin’s expenses of dozens of yuan?

Ding Wei's copyright has been fully handed over to the publishing house for acceptance. She really doesn't have so much time to take care of these chores, and she also wrote this novel officially after graduation from college. When that time comes, she can write some documentary novels.

This growth line is a bit long, but no matter in this era or in the future, she will not fall behind. She does not want to rely on this to make a living for the rest of her life. It is nothing more than having no extra time now, and the social environment allows her to write novels in other aspects, so she is quite content with the status quo.

Her total deposit now has exceeded 100,000 yuan, because her parents have never asked about it, so only she knows the number herself.

My mother went out to sell cakes from time to time, but she didn't make a lot of money, and didn't dare to go every day. The reason why she didn't give up was to inquire about the direction of the policy and save the best opportunity.

However, the land reform policy was completely implemented. After this summer harvest, their production team was disbanded and then began to draw lots and divide land. I thought their family could divide the land, but I didn't expect that there were seven or eight acres of dry land. These small pieces of dry land were all on river beaches or in places with poor soil conditions. The people were unwilling to stay idle and would not see the land being barren, so my mother got nearly eight acres of land.

How could she grow it alone? Even if her father takes leave to help her plant during the busy farming period, he can’t grow it!

So she thought of a way to ask her brothers and nephews from her parents to come and help her farm. Of course, after the other party’s land was finished, as a reward, in addition to the good wine and vegetables, she would also give them wages. The so-called fat and water will not flow to outsiders’ fields, which is the reason.

My mother has a big family, and she can just ask a few of them to plant this land. The money is easy to say now, but the food cannot be careless.

Ding Wei reminded her from time to time to take care of her body. Now she has figured it out and will not do it so hard. Especially after she found that doing business is better than farming, she is even more reluctant to farm, but the land cannot be abandoned, so she thought of such a compromise solution.

In this way, they only lost some wages, but they could receive the food at home. Except for the part of the public grain, the rest is all their own. With this grain, can their family still go hungry?

My mother often said that if you plant some food and drink at home, you will have no worries about food and drink. It’s not like in the city. You have to spend money when you leave the house. She thinks she is still young and doesn’t want to waste her time on it, so the city’s home was delayed.

Now the family who rented their house is about to move out. My mother went to the neighborhood committee to prepare a case and wrote a rental advertisement at the entrance of the family yard. Within five days, the house was rented out again, and the price was two yuan more than before. Now it is twelve yuan per month. A three-bedroom and one living room house can burn radiators in winter, and it is another first floor, so it is very easy to rent. The main reason is that the location of this house is good!

As for their house in the machinery factory resident yard, because it has just been renovated, the furnishings at home are arranged in the style of their family, so they never thought of renting them out. After all, it is quite convenient to occasionally go home for overtime work or something.

Ding Wei didn't let her rent it out because she knew that with the spring breeze of reform and opening up, even if her mother doesn't like the city in the future, she will have to live in it because it's close, so why bother to ruin her home because of the little rent?

Zhao Qingqing was worried about the three daughters going out to play, but because they did well in the exam, although the scores had not yet come out, her daughter's self-confidence never seemed to have any problems, so she believed that she would definitely be able to get into the university in the capital.

If Ding Lan can pass the exam, Ding Wei will definitely pass the exam.

None of the sons came back. With the trust of his daughter, Zhao Qingqing and Ding Zhenlong were reluctant to leave, but they still sent them to the train in the provincial capital Z City and sent their daughter away. Ding Zhenlong simply went to the bus station opposite to take the bus to K City to see his third son who was studying in college. It was only one or two hours away. He hadn't been there before. This opportunity was rare and he should not miss it.

Ding Wei did not bring much cash on her, but took out the money and kept it at home. When she found a suitable house, she asked Ding Zhenlong to buy it with her money. After all, she was only fifteen years old, and if she wanted to buy it, she had to sell it.

Ding Wei put the money in her house, but no one explained it because she didn't know if she could meet a suitable house this time.

It doesn’t matter in this era that you can’t buy sleeper tickets. Even if you want to find someone to make up after getting on the bus, they will bluntly say that there is no, and it’s useless to add money. It’s so rigorous.

There is no way, Ding Wei and the others can only sit in a hard seat. Fortunately, the three of them are in the same seat. Unlike later generations, they may not be able to sit together due to Internet reasons.

There is not much luggage in summer. Each person carries a bag and only prepares a little food and drink. It is enough to eat in the car. If there are too many, it will easily deteriorate. There are still a few clothes in the backpack. Ding Wei wants to see if the big city is open. If you are lucky, you may be able to buy street stall clothes.

It has to be said that with the recovery of the college entrance examination, the situation in the country has been getting better and better in recent years, and more and more people have taken the train. Fortunately, they are the starting station, otherwise they might not be able to buy seat tickets at all.

With a crowded crowd, they were three more girls, and Ding Wei told them before getting on the bus.

"Don't give people a seat."

Such remarks surprised both Chen Xiumin and Ding Xiang. After all, Ding Wei’s kindness is in her bones, so why is it…

"We have a long distance of seven or eight hundred kilometers. Including the distance of the circumference, it is almost a thousand kilometers. The speed of the train is so slow that it will take at least twenty hours. Not to mention the supply on the road, the time when the train stops at the station, can you still sit back if you give up your seat? If you encounter an unreasonable person, you will not be able to argue with others at all, so you must remember to protect yourself first when you go out. If you don't talk about the others for now, it will be useless."

The two of them thought Ding Wei was exaggerating, but as the train left, more and more people were on board, and some even brought chicken cages and duck cages. In the summer, not only crowded people, but also livestock. The smell of the carriage was simply!

It would be better for Dingxiang to sit next to the window, and Ding Wei to the aisle. As long as someone approached her, she would subconsciously avoid it, otherwise she might be touched with her head and arms. Although there was no virus in this era, she was still not used to contacting people, so her face was always very ugly.

When you go out, you must bully the weak and fear the strong. Look at Ding Wei as three little girls, so some people rely on her seniority to make her give in.

Ding Wei shook her head politely at them with a smile: "I'm sorry, we're still far away, and our parents and brothers are in another carriage. If we give you the location to you, it will be difficult for them to find us, so you can't give up this location. Otherwise, you can go to other carriages to see if there are any empty seats?"

Except for the designated location for the starting train, no specific location is written on the train. If there is a seat, you can go and stand if there is no one.

In this era, tickets were handwritten, and there was a unique way to distinguish authenticity from the station. If you were a person who often took the train, you could easily find flaws. There were even people who bought short-distance long-distance tickets. There were all kinds of ways to evade tickets. Under the seats and in the toilet, whenever you encountered ticket checks, you would hide in. There were even people who directly gave up their position and hid in the opposite direction. After checking the tickets, you would go back.

Especially when the waiting hall was released to enter the station, it was the most terrifying. People were carrying their bags and rushing forward. If Ding Zhenlong hadn't escorted them to the car, they wouldn't know if they could have squeezed in!

There were many people on the train. For the safety of the three people, Ding Wei took the initiative to sit outside and rested in time. She always kept alone awake, did not eat anything given by strangers, and did not take the initiative to chat with others. She always said that her parents and brothers were in other cars. After a twenty-six-hour drive, she finally arrived at the Capital Railway Station at 9 o'clock the next night.

It was almost ten o'clock after leaving the station. Even in the capital, there were many places without street lights. Fortunately, there was a guesthouse next to the station, which was just a little more expensive than other places. It costs one dollar a night, and it was a triple room with hot water and can wash.

Xiumin was shocked when she heard this: "The three-person room is just a dime in our place. This... is too expensive!"

"It's okay, after all, it's a three-person room. Three people only cost one dollar, and some are single rooms for one dollar."

"Besides, I paid for the seven or eight yuan tickets, and I don't care about the one-yuan accommodation fee this night. Let's have enough money here, and the letter of introduction can last for a month. Go to different places and stay in different guesthouses every day."

It is worthy of being a large guesthouse in the capital. Even the three-person room is cleaned very clean.

Before leaving, Ding Wei told Xiumin to bring a bed sheet and a quilt cover. This is the convenience of summer. She puts a bed sheet and covers a quilt cover, which is both clean and hygienic, and is very convenient even if it is cleaned.

The Capital Guesthouse not only has electricity, but also electric fans. Ding Wei was always happy when she saw the electric fans.

"It's great. You don't have to get heated at night. Even if you have to go to the boiler room to pick up the hot water, go and get some water, come back and take a shower, and then take a break early after washing it. After you have enough rest tomorrow, discuss where to go first."

Of course there is no bathroom in the triple room, but there is a public bathroom, so there is no one left. They fetch water, change into their slippers, rinse it, put on new clothes, and return to the room to dry their hair naturally, then lay down on the bed that was already laid and received the hot air from the electric fan.

"I feel that the capital is not as hot as ours, right?"

"The cooler the more you go north, let alone the electric fan. Do you see it? This is the electric fan. When I go home, I see if I can install a few, and I don't know if I need an industrial ticket or something."

"Vivi, you are so awesome. You know everything. If I put this thing here, I don't know how to use it. I feel like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden now."

Each of the three wore a set of bed sheets and quilt covers, wrapped them up, and turned over and wrapped them tightly. They were not worried about being bitten by mosquitoes, because people who had never enjoyed the electric fan felt that sleeping like this was super cool.

Ding Wei thought she would not be able to sleep, but she didn't expect that she would not only fall asleep, but also slept until dawn. When she looked at her watch, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

Dingxiang and Xiumin got up at some point, but they didn't wake her up. When she put on her clothes, she put the beds of the three of them in. They walked in with a lunch box and a kettle in their hands. When they saw Ding Wei, they were delighted.

"Sister, are you awake? Are you hungry? We went to buy buns and porridge. You should eat them quickly. After eating, go to wash up and check out. It's so lively outside. I can't wait to go to Tiananmen Square!"

Ding Wei took the millet porridge brought by her sister, a bun, a steamed bun, a tea egg and a few pickles.

The steamed buns in this era are all yellow and colored, mixed with mixed noodles. Although they are a little thicker, they are very hungry.

"You both have eaten?"

"Well, we were just like you ordered. We were full. Even the meal we ate last night. We were so hungry. Now we are full. You should eat quickly. Let's brush our teeth and wash our faces. There were too many people just now, and there are no people."

As the two of them said, they went to get their own toiletries. Ding Wei was indeed hungry and didn't refuse. She bit her mouth and it was a green vegetable tofu bun. Well, it tasted pretty good, spicy and delicious.

The black mustard greens also have chili peppers, which tastes sour and sour, and even the millet porridge smells red dates. I guess this breakfast is not enough for 30 cents, after all, there is also a braised egg!

The two of them had just put in hot water and washed their hair before coming in. Xiumin went to fetch Ding Wei again, "Why did you wash your hair again?"

Last night they just washed it with hot water, without shampoo. They sweated this morning and my sister washed it again.

"I still feel a little smell when I wash my hair in clean water. I had a power outage last night and sweated a lot and my hair was smelly. Sister, you can wash it later,"

"How much does this breakfast cost? It's quite delicious, especially this steamed bun, which is chewy and not as thick as imagined."

"We are not familiar with the restaurants and canteens, and we don't dare to go out. We have this meal a day, and we add it after selling it. Because they are the guesthouses at the station, and the people who come here are at different times, so there is no specified time for dinner, whether it is breakfast or lunch. Two cents per serving, and the three of us charge 50 cents, which is quite cost-effective."

Ding Wei raised her eyebrows in surprise, "One person has an egg, a bun, and a steamed bun, but she has only collected 50 cents? This is really cheap! After all, this is the capital."

"No, I wronged me yesterday and complained that my rent is expensive. Now I realize that there are discounts. The key is to eat enough and eat well."

It is worthy of being state-owned. If it is private, it is probably only 50 cents per person.

It was almost eleven o'clock after breakfast. Xiumin had all the hot water. Ding Wei also washed her hair and waited for her hair to dry. She had finished the check-out procedures and carried their schoolbags. Since she decided to go near Tiananmen Square, it would be simple. She found a bus stop and went directly to her destination with an eight cent ticket for one person.

There are many state-owned guesthouses near Tiananmen Square. After all, there are several attractions here. Ding Wei chose a larger storefront to check in. It was also a triple room, with a total of one yuan, including a breakfast. The three of them put their luggage in it, and it was almost twelve o'clock.

"Let's go, we'll just walk around here. Let's go to have a meal first. I'll treat you. What do you want to eat?"

"Of course I have to eat roast duck when I come to the capital. Sister, I want to eat roast duck, otherwise, fried noodles are fine."

Ding Wei smiled and knocked Dingxiang's forehead: "You, why are you anxious? Take your time, you will definitely let you eat it. Let's go and take a look at it first."

The three of them made a backpack and put them in daily necessities, put the other two at the guesthouse and walked out on a lightweight manner.
