The Journey to the Countryside (1)

The next morning, before Lu Xiaoxiao woke up, she heard someone knocking on the door. She hurriedly put on her clothes and put the blanket into her space and took out the original owner's blanket. When she arrived at the door, she heard Auntie Zhang call for her to open the door.

Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door and saw Uncle Zhang and Auntie coming in with a bag of things. When they saw her, they asked her to wash her face first.

Auntie Zhang took out two buns and an egg from the bag and placed them on the table before helping Lu Xiaoxiao pack the blanket.

Lu Xiaoxiao had basically packed her things the previous day and was only left with the blanket. When she returned after washing her face, she began to eat the breakfast that Auntie had brought. When she finished breakfast, Auntie Zhang had also packed the blanket. During this time, Zhang De put out the stove and even went to other places to check if there were anything left to do.

When Lu Xiaoxiao saw that everything was ready, she handed the key to Zhang De and asked them to help her take care of the house while she was in the countryside.

Lu Xiaoxiao, Zhang De, and the others went to the post office to mail her things, leaving behind only a suitcase and a backpack the size of a school bag.

Actually, there was nothing in the suitcase and backpack. They were just used to fool people. The reason why she took these two things was only so that she could use the suitcase as a cover to take out some things in the future.

When Lu Xiaoxiao arrived at the train station, she saw the person in charge of going to the countryside this time. It happened to be the big sister whom she had met when she signed up that time. When the other party saw her coming, she smiled and greeted her.

After a while, Auntie Zhang and that big sister chatted together. While chatting, Auntie Zhang did not forget to ask the other party to take care of her on the way.

While everyone was chatting, Lu Xiaoxiao sized up the people who were going to the countryside this time. There were five women and nine men. Including her, there were a total of 15 people.

Some of them were wearing brand new military uniforms, some were wearing checkered skirts, and some were wearing patched clothes. It was really a stark contrast! When the group of people saw her sizing them up, they also began to size her up. During this time, they even whispered with different expressions.

Not long after, the train arrived. Lu Xiaoxiao followed the team onto the train. Auntie Zhang handed her the bag and said that it was food she had prepared for her on the way. She told her not to be hungry and to be careful on the way.

Zhang De, on the other hand, said, "If you see Uncle Wang, don't stand on ceremony. If you need anything, just tell him. Back then, your father took good care of him. After settling down, send a telegram back to inform me that you're safe."

Lu Xiaoxiao waved her hand and told them that she definitely would.

When she boarded the train, Lu Xiaoxiao found her place under the lead of the person-in-charge. She put her suitcase away and sat down to rest.

After a while, people came from beside and opposite her. Two women and a man were also heading to the countryside. She could tell that the three of them knew each other. Sure enough, they chatted after sitting down for a while.

Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly heard the woman in checkered skirt ask her name. Although Lu Xiaoxiao didn't want to talk to her, she still replied, "Lu Xiaoxiao."

When the other party saw her answer, she asked as if they were close friends, "Why are you going to the countryside at such a young age? I just came and saw your uncle and auntie coming to send you off. Did your parents abandon you and let you go to the countryside? They didn't even come to send you."

When the woman sitting next to the woman in the checkered skirt heard the woman's words, she said, "It must be. Otherwise, which parent would let such a young child go to the countryside?"

When Lu Xiaoxiao heard the two of them echoing each other, she was so angry that she was about to laugh. Could there be something wrong with these two people's brains?

Before she could retaliate, she saw the big sister who was the team leader come over and say, "What nonsense are you two talking about? Xiao Xiao's parents are heroes who sacrificed themselves to protect the country's scientific research results. They are martyrs. She has devoted herself to the construction of the country under the influence of her parents at a young age. She has high awareness. You should learn from her."

Hearing the big sister's words, the two women's faces turned red and they did not dare to say a word.

Only the man said, "Sister, don't worry. We will definitely learn from Comrade Lu Xiaoxiao and contribute to the construction of Hua country."

When the big sister heard him say that, she nodded in satisfaction and left.

When the two women saw the big sister leave, one of them muttered softly, "What's so great about it? She might even implicate others when she goes to the countryside."

When Lu Xiaoxiao heard her say this, she had no intention of caring about her. She closed her eyes and planned to rest for a while. She had woken up too early that day.
