"Xiao Liu has started writing again, he must have just gotten married and wanted a daughter-in-law! Hit a **. In the camping car, Liu Tianxiong took out a pen and paper, and the master on the side joked. Liu Tianxiong hurriedly explained: "My lover is a teacher, and she is very busy with work, so I am afraid that it will affect her work." Another master said, "You don't understand this, this is the way young people express their love!" ”
The sound of laughter in the camping car, accompanied by the "rustle" of the tip of the pen on the paper, the story of Liu Tianxiong's family letter kicked off.
Liu Tianxiong is a lineman in the long rail car of the Taiyuan Public Works Machinery Depot of China Railway Taiyuan Bureau Group, and the long rail car where he works is mainly to unload the welded 500-meter-long rail to the lines within the management of the bureau.
In the Datong Hudong rail welding and repair base, next to the rows of 500-meter-long seamless steel rails, is the warm home of the long-track car workers, the windows of the camping car are filled with water mist, and the windows of the kitchen are spewing hot air.
The aisle was filled with a faint white mist, mixed with the fragrance of millet porridge, and the master had already prepared breakfast. After a bowl of golden millet porridge, some vegetables, and an egg, Liu Tianxiong picked up the dun cloth and began to clean up.
Xiao Liu, come over to eat first, and then sweep after eating. The old man in the car greeted him. "It's okay master, let it dry first, and when the cleaning is finished, the temperature is just right." Liu Tianxiong responded with a smile while sweeping the floor.
In October last year, Liu Tianxiong and his lover entered the marriage hall, but due to their busy work, they often only see their wife once a month.
His wife teaches at the same elementary school. At the beginning, when the two of them were on the phone, his wife occasionally complained that she was busy with work, and it was not very convenient to pick up, so I hoped he could go home more often. Liu was worried that the beating would affect his wife's work, and he was very concerned about her, so the branch committee of the Youth League branch of the workshop suggested to him that he could express his thoughts to his wife by writing a letter.
On this day, after the completion of the track loading task, Liu Tianxiong returned to the camper room, habitually took out the stationery, turned to a new page, held his chin with his hand and thought for a while, and then began to write on the paper. When working with the car, it is convenient to write a letter in a different place, and I only feel that the paper is short and long. When she was not busy at work, his wife picked up her mobile phone from time to time and flipped through their chat history, and when she couldn't wait for him to reply to the message, she took out the letters that Liu Tianxiong sent her from the drawer and began to look through them one by one. My colleague said: "I watch it every day, I can't see enough, you two are quite romantic in this way." The wife looked at the letter and said: "He can't bring his mobile phone during working hours, and he may not reply to messages in time, so you can know what he is doing by looking at the letter." ”
The phone on the desktop vibrates, the screen lights up, and the wife's message pops up. Liu Tianxiong stopped his pen and clicked on the message, "Honey, are you going home for the Chinese New Year this year?" ”
On the phone side, Liu Tianxiong replied after being silent for a long time: "Daughter-in-law, this year's task is heavy, I won't go home for the New Year, but I will send the New Year's gift and the letter to you in advance, the days ahead are still very long, I will go back to accompany you as soon as I rest." ”
In the Spring Festival of 2024, Liu Tianxiong is fighting on the front line of loading and unloading rails, although he can't celebrate the New Year with his family, but the responsibility on his shoulders has more weight, and the worry in his heart has more sweetness.
Each letter seems to be a thin piece of paper and simple characters, but the sentences are accompanied by longing, and the lines are full of love. These warm words, in today's rapid development of informatization, have crossed rivers and mountains and built a warm nest of love between the two. (Zhang Zexin finished).
