Feelings on the way to hometown

        Recently, I received a call from my father. Because my hometown is about to enter the plum rainy season, and my hometown is in disrepair and often leaks rain, I hope I can go back and repair the house. So I handed over the work at hand, booked train tickets on the Internet and traveled on another day.

        There is a distance between my hometown and the city where I work. Although it takes only more than three hours to take the high-speed railway, the cost is much more expensive than the ordinary bus. As I just went through COVID-19, the environment is not very good. I decided to take the ordinary fast train, which is economical and affordable, and can enjoy the scenery along the way. It only takes more than 10 hours to drive.

        "Just let me go up. When I was just pulling my luggage, I accidentally dropped my mask and didn't pick it up!" An old aunt begged carefully to the conductor. " No, you are not allowed to get on the bus without a mask. " The conductor replied solemnly. Seeing my aunt's anxious tears swirling in her eyes and the line behind me getting longer and longer, I quickly took out a spare mask and handed it to her. She thanked her with gratitude.

        In the post epidemic era, security measures have not been relaxed at all. After layers of security, I finally got on the train back home. This is a third-class carriage. Most of them are elderly migrant workers. Everyone is wearing different styles of masks. There are common snake skin bags in rural areas on the luggage rack. They are nothing more than quilts, clothes, even pots and pans and plastic buckets. Everyone has a face of vicissitudes. They are cautious in their actions or eyes.

        As soon as the luggage was settled, the whistle sounded and the train slowly left the platform. The car was crowded. I shouted "let's go" and found my seat. I saw a strange big brother sitting in my position, talking with his family on video. Looking at his sweat and tired face, I think he should be tired. Let him enjoy this rare happiness!

        The salesperson on the train was really excellent. Although the aisle was full of people, he could always find a gap and walk through the crowd. He pushed his car back and forth and shouted, "cigarettes, melon seeds, ham sausage, beer, coke and mineral water!" I stopped her and asked for a bottle of beer. The price was twice that of the outside.

        Three hours after the train left, I got into my seat. At this time, the night is getting darker. Except for a few young people still brushing their mobile phones, most of them are taking naps in different forms. Even the girls give up their reserve and completely lose their usual glory. This may be the most real moment of human nature. They are all mortals. When they should be bright, when they should be put down, why should they be too tired?

        After the train passed Nanjing, more people began to get off, and the speed seemed to be much lighter. The iron guy climbed over the city all the way and ran happily towards the goal in the thick night. Life should be like a train, with a starting point and an ending point. Although you must stop and go in the process, give time to G (high-speed rail) and D (multiple unit) to avoid the lane. There is an appropriate speed at each time, and there are people up and down at each station. Think of a classmate who once said, "a train leaving on time will not wait for late passengers." I made fun of her sensibility at that time, but now I feel the same. Indeed, opportunities are for those who are ready. They will not favor those who get something for nothing and take advantage of opportunism!

        Unknowingly, the sky has revealed the white belly of the fish, pulling me back from the infinite reverie to reality. I wonder if we can successfully complete the house reconstruction this time! In fact, in the spring of the epidemic in 2020, although the overall epidemic prevention and control is appropriate, it still drags down the economic downturn, the shutdown of factories and the transformation of transformation. Many people are forced to change careers. Considering that the factories I serve can operate smoothly, it is very lucky and cherished. I believe everything will get better in the future. As the train makes a long sound, I know it's getting closer and closer to home!
