Chapter 35: Mother Lu arrives in Beijing, Brother Lu picks her up
Lu Chuan drove the car smoothly on the road, while Lu's mother sat quietly in the back seat. She had been instructing her son on various things in detail - matters that required special attention when her daughter-in-law was pregnant and some specific requirements. Lu's mother emphasized that everything should be done according to her daughter-in-law's wishes, and there must not be any negligence or refusal.
While concentrating on driving, Lu Chuan smiled and joked, "Mom, tell me, am I your biological son, or is Zhizhi your biological daughter? I used to hear my comrades complain that their mothers always deliberately made things difficult for their daughters-in-law during their pregnancies, but this is not the case in our family at all. It's really good. At least I don't have to have a headache like them!" After saying that, Lu Chuan showed a relaxed smile on his face.
When Mother Lu heard that her son was jealous, she couldn't help but feel amused, but she still rolled her eyes at Lu Chuan and comforted him, "Of course you are my biological son! But Zhizhi is also my biological daughter. She is pregnant with your child, which is very hard and difficult. As her husband, you should care for her more. How can you still be jealous? Don't you feel ashamed?"
Seeing this, Lu Chuan stopped joking and smiled, explaining, "Mom, don't be angry, I was just joking. My wife is really a very good person. I am grateful to you for treating her like your own daughter, so how could I be jealous? I just said that to make you happy and to make the atmosphere more relaxed and cheerful."
In this way, the two mother and son talked and laughed along the way. Mother Lu kept telling Lu Chuan various precautions. Time passed inadvertently, and in the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.
Finally arriving at the city's train station, Lu Chuan first found a suitable place to park the car, then picked up two packages and walked into the station with his mother.

Lu Chuan looked at his watch. It was already afternoon and there were still three hours before the train was scheduled to depart. He hadn't had lunch yet. Although his wife had brought food (dumplings, buns), his mother still had to sit on the train for dozens of hours and would definitely be very hungry. Although there was food for sale on the train, the portions on the train were not as large as in the restaurant, and he was worried that his mother would not be full.
Fortunately, there is a restaurant next to the train station. Although it is not a state-owned restaurant, I heard during a previous meal that this restaurant is a private restaurant opened by the brother-in-law of the mayor of City A. The food is similar to that of the state-owned restaurant, and the price is the same. After all, the mayor cannot cover everything with one hand, so the price must be the same as that of the state-owned restaurant, otherwise his position as mayor will be the end of the world. Moreover, this restaurant is generally eaten by rich people or people who are really hungry. Lu Chuan heard this information so clearly when he was eating at the restaurant once.
I said to Lu's mother: "Mom, I'll go to the restaurant next door to get two dishes. You will be hungry later. The smell on the train is very strong, and eating will definitely affect your appetite."
When Lu's mother heard that her son was going to get food, she refused and said, "Son, don't go. Zhizhi brought some food, and a lot of it. I can't finish it all by myself. The food will go bad easily in this weather. You also said that the smell on the train is very strong. Do you want your mother to eat while smelling the stench? Besides, it's already closed at this time, and they may not be able to sell it to you."
Seeing that his mother tried to stop him, Lu Chuan decided not to go either. He had to find a place where no one was around. The mother and son ate steamed buns and dumplings for lunch together. Lu Chuan ate 5 dumplings and did not eat 3 steamed buns. He gave the rest to his mother. When his mother saw that her son ate so little, she knew that he wanted to save some for herself in the evening. She thought that since they had already arrived in Beijing, he probably wouldn't be able to finish all the food he had eaten. So she gave her son a few more steamed dumplings. When they were both full, she sent the package and let Lu's mother lean on her shoulder to rest for a while. She said she would call her mother later. Lu's mother did not refuse and fell asleep directly beside her son.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lu Chuan woke his mother up, helped her to dress, and took her to the ticket gate to queue up. Lu Chuan stayed with her until her mother got on the train. He told her that her second brother would pick her up at the station when they arrived in Beijing, and then said goodbye to her. Then he left the train station, went to the store next to the station, called his second brother at the Public Security Bureau, and asked him to remember to pick him up. Then he hung up the phone and returned home.
When Second Brother Lu heard his younger brother talking about the time his mother would be back, he agreed and called his wife at home, telling her that his mother was coming back and to remember to buy more vegetables. Since Mother Lu came to City A, there was no one to cook at home, so every time Father Lu got off work he would come back to Second Brother Lu's house for dinner and see his twin grandsons more often.

Second Sister-in-law Lu was also very happy when she heard her husband say that her mother-in-law was coming back. After all, she also wanted to know about her brother-in-law and his wife, whether they were easy to get along with. The most feared thing between sisters-in-law is that they can't get along well with each other, and they would meet the worst kind. After all, she and First Sister-in-law Lu got along very well. If her brother-in-law and his wife couldn't get along well, it would cause disharmony in the family. Even if the three brothers did not separate, they all lived separately, and would occasionally go home to visit their parents-in-law and have dinner together.
Mrs. Lu told Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu, who were playing with the twins, the news and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Lu Chen just called me and said that Mom will be back tomorrow. What vegetables should we buy to cook tomorrow?"
Grandpa Lu: "Xiao Yu, just do it as usual. Your mother is not an outsider, why make so much trouble? And you have twins with you. Just buy the usual dishes and add two dishes your mother likes. And I heard from your mother before that your brother and sister-in-law are easy to get along with, so don't panic."
Grandma Lu, holding one of the twins, also agreed. When Second Sister-in-law Lu heard that her grandparents knew that she was nervous and were comforting her, her heartache subsided. At worst, she would just have to stop associating with her third brother's family.

Because Lu Chuan bought a sleeper ticket for his mother, the bed number was inside the carriage. The smell was less than that of a hard sleeper or hard seat, but it still depended on the person. If one was luckier, the sleeper would not have such a strong smell. However, this time Lu's mother was really lucky. She was the only one in the carriage, and she occupied a small carriage alone. When she was hungry, she took out dumplings and buns from her bag. Fortunately, the buns and dumplings were not hard, so they could be eaten directly. It was okay to eat fried dough sticks later. While eating the buns and dumplings, Lu's mother drank the spiritual spring water prepared by Bai Zhizhi. After eating and drinking, Lu's mother felt comfortable all over her body, without that feeling of fatigue. Fortunately, the small carriage had a door lock with a key, so it was not easy to lose things. She ate two more oranges, put the orange peels under her nostrils and smelled them. After breathing in the fresh air, her stomach was full, so she locked the door and went to sleep.
PS: In the old days, the last train departed at 18:. If no one entered the carriage, it meant that no one would get on the train at night or midnight, so everyone would lock the door and sleep (just a guess).

Lu Chuan had just arrived home not long ago. As he was the only one in the car, in order to get home early, he drove very fast and arrived in about an hour and a half. After arriving, he returned the car to the caretaker of the motor vehicle department and went straight home. When he got home, Bai Zhizhi had already prepared the meal. She had planned to eat dumplings like yesterday, but she had also eaten dumplings in the morning and Bai Zhizhi was a little tired of it, so she took a serving of scallion chicken and a serving of rice noodle abalone from the space, fried four poached eggs, poured two cups of pearl milk tea and put them on the table waiting for the man Lu Chuan to come back. Of course, when Lu Chuan was not at home, she also went to the space, ate a serving of potato and cheese baked rice, gnawed two chicken legs and drank a bottle of Wahaha beverage, so that she was not so hungry, otherwise she would have been hungry early. At noon, Bai Zhizhi had an 4-inch durian pizza, a cup of Coke and a medium-sized French fries for lunch, and then rested directly in the space. When she came out, it was already past four o'clock, and she could only eat the dishes she had stockpiled before for dinner.
Seeing that there were dishes he had never eaten before every day, Lu Chuan was surprised at how his wife was so good at cooking. She could cook anything. He did not ask her directly, but swore in his heart that he would think carefully about what his wife said yesterday, that the capital would surely develop very fast in the future. If his wife ate so well every day, his previous savings would definitely not be enough to buy a courtyard house. He would have to think of ways to solve the money problem while eating.
On the train
Mother Lu did not wake up during the journey, but slept until dawn the next morning. Fortunately, the final destination of this train was Beijing City, Province B, so Mother Lu did not have to worry about missing her stop.
1970年8月8日早上7:18
Since Mother Lu went to bed very early the previous night, she got up very early the next morning. She put the important things into her underwear pockets, then took out her toiletries, locked the carriage door, and went out of the carriage to wash up. Because soft sleeper tickets are hard to buy, Mother Lu has only ridden in the carriage a few times. She knows that there is a wall-mounted hot water access area at the end of the corridor of each carriage, a public washing area and a toilet. The sanitary conditions are average, and you can bring your own water cup, toothbrush and face towel for convenient washing. Fortunately, her daughter-in-law bought toiletries for her this time, so she can just use them directly. When she came from Beijing before, she used a wooden toothbrush and toothpaste to brush her teeth the next day. This time, her daughter-in-law bought her a toothbrush. I heard that it is a foreign product, and it is something that her daughter-in-law has finally snatched, so she must cherish it (actually, in the previous life, 10 yuan could buy 16 toothbrushes, so there is no need to cherish it so much, haha).
After washing up, Mother Lu returned to the small carriage. Fortunately, the train did not stop at this time, otherwise it would be troublesome if someone suddenly got on the train and their things were lost.
Mother Lu opened the door of the small carriage and locked it from the inside. There were still more than two hours to reach Beijing. She put her toiletries in her bag and took out the last lunch box prepared by her daughter-in-law. Bai Zhizhi prepared three lunch boxes for Mother Lu and one for Lu Chuan. Each lunch box was filled to the brim. She gave up filling it when it was full. Yesterday's lunch box contained 30 dumplings, 5 large meat buns, and 6 vermicelli and minced meat buns. Yesterday's dinner box contained 35 corn and meat steamed dumplings, 5 meat buns, and 5 vermicelli and minced meat buns. This morning's breakfast was four fried eggs, five slices of ham, 15 meat buns and six vermicelli meat buns, which were enough to fill me up. There was also half a bottle of water in the kettle. If I was really hungry, there was also a bag of 6 fried dough sticks, four flavors of small twisted dough sticks, and snacks such as chocolate, apples and oranges. The bag was full to the brim. If Lu's mother hadn't felt that she couldn't carry it anymore, Bai Zhizhi would have wanted to get some more from the space for her family in Beijing to try.
There are also two sets of pajamas made by the daughter-in-law for herself, her husband, and her parents-in-law, as well as bras and clothes for herself and the other two daughters-in-law. The daughter-in-law said that her figure looks much better in these, because the figures of her two sisters-in-law are similar. The bras given by Bai Zhizhi are elastic, so there is no need to worry about not being able to fit them.
After eating and drinking breakfast, Mother Lu covered all the lunch boxes and washed them together when she was ready to go home. Only yesterday's lunch box was taken home by her youngest son to be washed. She was afraid that it would be difficult to carry the food, so there were only two lunch boxes. After packing the luggage bag, she looked at the scenery outside the window.
1970年8月8日上午10:00 B省京市
Mother Lu heard the train broadcast that it was about to arrive at the station. There was a father and daughter in the carriage who were older than Mother Lu. They arrived around 8:30. Neither of them greeted each other, after all, they were strangers.
The three of them packed their things and prepared to wait for the train to stop. Mother Lu carried two packages on her chest to protect them from being stolen. She also put her own money in her underwear pocket, which was sensitive on her leg.
The train stopped after a while. Mother Lu was not in a hurry to go out. She waited until most people had left before she slowly came out.
Outside Beijing, the largest railway station in China, a man in police uniform was standing next to a police car waiting. Some vendors saw the police car and the police uniform and quickly closed their stalls for fear of being caught.
Of course, Lu Chen didn't know all this, because his current mood was to quickly see his mother and bring her home, as he had to go back to work.
When Mother Lu came out of the train station, she saw her second son in police uniform and a police car next to him. She quickly shouted, "Chenchen, I'm over here!"
When Lu Chen heard the familiar voice calling, he was delighted, knowing that it was his mother coming out. He quickly looked towards the source of the sound and saw his mother standing at the station door looking out and waiting for him to greet her. He quickly locked the car and ran towards his mother impatiently to greet her.
Lu Chen ran to his mother, took the two heavy packages from her hands with a smile, and then carefully helped his mother walk towards the car. As they walked, Lu Chen did not forget to ask about his brother's situation: "Mom, how is my brother these days?"
Mother Lu's face was filled with a relieved smile, and she replied: "Don't worry, your brother is fine. By the way, how is Beijing these days? And how are your grandparents?"
In this way, the mother and son walked slowly to the front of the car while chatting about family matters. Along the way, Lu Chen carefully asked about various matters at home, and Lu's mother patiently answered them one by one.
When they arrived at the second son's house, Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu had been waiting there for a long time. When the old couple and Lu's second sister-in-law saw their daughter-in-law (mother-in-law) coming home, they hurried forward to greet her and asked about the situation with concern. Everyone sat together, and the two twin grandsons hugged Lu's mother's legs, saying that they missed their grandmother very much. Lu's mother happily kissed everyone, and then talked and laughed with the family members, having a great time.
During the meal, Lu's mother took out the gifts and specialties that Bai Zhizhi had given to the family from her luggage. The grandson took the fried dough sticks and twisted dough sticks with great joy, and his smile couldn't stop. The second daughter-in-law and the parents-in-law received the thoughtful clothes from the grandson's wife/sister-in-law, and felt very warm in their hearts.
The whole family was filled with laughter and everyone's face was filled with a happy smile. In this warm atmosphere, the family shared every moment of their lives and felt the depth and preciousness of family affection.
