Chapter 701: Train Back to the City
At the same time, on the other side of Yingying Street, in front of a black sedan.
The two old men stood there slowly, watching all this, their expressions showing a bit of sighing.
"Old Lu, do you think that after we retire, will we be able to have this kind of farewell scene with the people?"
One of the old men was Secretary Liu, the top leader of the entire SX, and the other was the second in command. They knew that today was the day Zhou Tian would return to Sijiu City, so they agreed to see Zhou Tian off together.
But who would have thought that they would see such a scene early in the morning, which shocked both of them and made them feel ashamed.
"It's difficult, Secretary Liu. After all, Xiaotian has done more for everyone than what we have done. It is normal to have such a scene! But doesn't this also just show our incompetence!"
A bitter smile appeared on Mr. Lu's lips.
When ordinary people do this, it actually shows that they have not done their job properly.
When he thought about it, Zhou Tian had won such support from the people in just two years. To be honest, he felt that his ruling career over the years was simply a joke.
"Yeah, it looks like we haven't done enough!"
Secretary Liu said this, but no one knew what he was thinking in his heart. However, today's scene also gave them a hard lesson.
Then, both of them got in the car and returned with different feelings. At this time, they no longer had any way to face Zhou Tian with a normal mentality. In this case, the two of them could only go back.
"Commander, to be honest, this is the first time I've seen a scene like this from a novel!"
In the car, Xiao Yang and his companions were still recalling the scene of the people seeing them off. For the first time, they felt extremely proud to be Zhou Tian's personal bodyguard and driver. However, Xiao Lian suddenly spoke.
"I always thought this was fake, but I didn't expect to see it today!"
Upon hearing this, Sister Liu also interrupted.
"What is true and what is false? In fact, novels are derived from life and are higher than life. In fact, for me, I have never pursued anything. I just know that no matter when, as long as I do my best, that's enough!"
Zhou Tian listened to what Xiaolian and Mrs. Liu said, but couldn't help but say something with emotion.
"Perhaps for me, I just want to make life easier for the common people and workers, but for the common people, perhaps this is exactly what they are looking for!"
To be honest, today's scene did shock him. In his previous life when materials were abundant, he had never seen such a scene. No, maybe he had seen it once, when the mayor of Jinbei City was transferred.
At that time, he saw a short video in which the mayor was sitting in a car, wiping away tears and leaving. The people behind him kept chasing the car and holding up banners. He thought it was fake.
But now that he had experienced it, he realized that it was not false. In comparison, he felt that what he had done was far from enough.
Closing his eyes, he recalled the scene just now in his mind. For some reason, he inexplicably felt a heavy sense of responsibility rising in his heart. It was so familiar, yet so strange.
Then he shook his head again and thought to himself, no, I'm not that noble, I'm not that great, I'm just an ordinary person, I'm just doing the best I can, but I won't risk my life or put myself in danger.
After figuring it out, he didn't think about it any more and slowly opened his eyes. At this moment, the car stopped.
"Xiao Yang, have we arrived at the train station yet?"
"Yes, Chief, we're at the train station!"
Xiao Yang said as he opened the car door and walked out. Zhou Tian and his companions also got out of the car soon after, picked up their luggage and packages and walked towards the waiting hall. Although it was still early, the waiting hall was already crowded with people.
There were constant sounds of coughing, scolding, and children crying. I looked down at the time and found that the train would depart in less than ten minutes.
Xiao Liu first took out the ticket and handed it to the ticket inspector for inspection. Then the few of them were taken in by the train station staff. After putting all their belongings in the compartment, Zhou Tian let Mrs. Liu and Xiao Qi go back.
Since many people returned to Sijiu City this time, three private rooms were opened. One was for Chen Yaning and Xiaolian, and the remaining four people shared a private room. Zhou Tian had a private room by himself.
This was because Xiao Liu had no choice but to use Zhou Tian's privilege. Otherwise, they would never have been able to enter the train early. Zhou Tian sat in the compartment, looking at the compartment in front of him.
Compared with the previous compartments, the current ones look more advanced and the space is also more spacious. If the previous compartments were only a dozen square meters, the current compartments of high-speed trains should be more than twenty square meters.
In addition to a cast iron table and two beds, the box also had a kettle, two cups, and a hanging 10-inch TV.
“Is this an upgrade?”
Zhou Tian looked at the box, stood up, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction. Apart from anything else, the box in front of him was much better than the average guesthouse.
He just didn't know if the other boxes were the same as this one. Thinking of this, he immediately walked out of the box and walked around Chen Yaning's and Chang Wen's boxes. As a result, he found that except for his box and Chen Yaning's box, Chang Wen's box was different from theirs.
There were obviously more beds than in their box, but the facilities inside were still the same. Seeing this, Zhou Tian felt relieved and returned to his box.
He lay down comfortably, thinking that he would be back in Sijiu City in less than a few hours, and his mind was filled with the image of his wife Shen Yulin.
"I don't know how grandpa, grandma and the kids are doing, Yulin? Do they miss me?"
“Have the children graduated from technical secondary school?”
As he thought about it, his thoughts drifted further and further away, but he was still very confident in the children's studies. He just didn't know if they would skip grades when they got to technical secondary school. After all, for them, the knowledge in technical secondary school should be learned very quickly.
If that's the case, it's probably not a good thing, after all, they are too young.
The eldest, second and third children are only thirteen years old this year, and the fourth and fifth children are only eleven years old. It is not a good thing for them to enter the society so early at such an age.
Alas, he couldn't help but sigh. Sometimes he felt that it was a mistake for his children to be too outstanding.
Although he thought so in his heart, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. It was obvious that what he thought and what he showed were inconsistent.
