Many mainland retirees in the community come to Guangzhou to help their children and grandchildren, compared with some elderly people who have been cadres in the past. Mainly come to this first-tier big city, their former "glory" is not known, there is always a sense of loss. Like our uncle Downstairs, he almost choked him up last time because of a word from the security guard.
"In those years, I enjoyed all the karaoke rooms and hotel meals in our city. Whoever buys a train ticket just looks for me, approves a note and immediately goes to the side door to get on the train! That's it! Uncle Ou often spoke proudly of the past.
Uncle Ou is actually not a big cadre, and he is really a high-ranking cadre, and he will not live in the smallest unit of the community with his son's family. Before his retirement, Uncle Ou worked as a shift leader at a railway freight station in a small four-lane city, where they were less than 100 kilometers from the central station of the provincial capital, and trains from the south to the north had to stop at their station.
In the past, the tickets for going north to Beijing and going south to Guangzhou were extremely difficult to buy, and there were not many tickets reserved for their small station, plus the domestic road logistics at that time was not as developed as it is now. Therefore, the local business people who do delivery goods, and the people who travel and work in order to catch the passenger and freight trains, the people who are looking for Uncle Ou line up to beg him, invite him to eat, entertain and consume, just like he himself said, "How beautiful and beautiful!" ”
For a long time, other elderly people in the community do not like to listen to Uncle Ou's boasting, meet a few words of greeting and hurry to avoid, everyone thinks that now they are ordinary people after retirement, always mention what the former "scenery" means. But Uncle Ou couldn't hold back himself, always wanting to find someone to share his glorious history.
That day, Uncle Ou saw the security guard Xiaolin on duty at the gate of the community, asked him where his hometown was, Xiaolin said a county name, And Uncle Ou slapped his hand and said that he was too familiar with it. Because the county is located between the city where Uncle Ou is located and the provincial capital, the fruit produced there is particularly famous, and the merchants who come to the south to sell often ask him to get wagons and book tickets.
Kobayashi was not interested in listening to him tell too many stories, and only "Oh" did not follow.
Uncle Ou couldn't bear the loneliness, saying that if Kobayashi had been born 20 years earlier, he would have wanted to take the train to the south to work unless he knew him and asked him for help. Otherwise, you must first take the old bus to the provincial capital, and then squeeze from the starting station to the southbound train, which will take at least three or four days on the road.
"Even if I was born 20 years ago, why do I have to ask you for help?" Maybe the country had a high-speed rail as early as 20 years, or maybe I was admitted to college as a cadre and could take a plane. Kobayashi scolded him twice, because everyone hated Uncle Ou's narration before, and Kobayashi almost memorized the stories he had told.
Uncle Ou was a little angry when he heard this, and thought to himself that this boy didn't know that the sky was high and the ground was thick, "I used to be a cadre, and people like you in our area without my approval can't get on the train at all!" Uncle Ou said angrily.
"But do you use a smartphone now?" Kobayashi asked.
"No, what's the use of that stuff, I can't just call in an old age." Uncle Ou said incomprehensibly.
"That's it, now it's all smartphone online booking, like you who now only know how to rely on the approval of people can't get on the train!" One sentence made Uncle Ou almost turn his back.
