Chapter 451 Journey (End)
As soon as Yang Xiuying said she was hungry, everyone simply ended the card game. While teasing her that she couldn't afford to lose, they took their bags and prepared to take out food.
Everyone determined the time to go home and prepared dry food for the way back to the city when they were in Shanghe Village.
Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying made scallion pancakes, as well as cans of fish sauce, dried fish, and bean paste.
Han Li had sesame cakes baked by the Yun sisters, and the cans contained stuffed venison sauce, spicy beans, and shepherd's purse knot shreds mixed with sesame oil.
Everyone poured themselves a glass of water and then started sharing the food on the table.
After everyone had eaten and drank enough, they chatted until the lights went out on the train before going to bed.
Even though he was in the sleeper car, Han Li still maintained a certain degree of vigilance, especially after the lights were turned off.
Han Li was leaning on the side of the carriage and dozing with his eyes closed. He didn't know how much time had passed but he was suddenly awakened by the sound of crying coming from the dining car.
Maybe Han Li's movements were too big, causing Yun Yingying on the bed opposite to open her eyes and ask softly.
"What's wrong, Brother Li?"
"It's okay, someone seems to be crying over there in the dining car."
"What's going on? Should we go over and take a look?"
"What can happen in the dining car? I can just go over and take a look. If there is a patient, maybe I can be of some help."
"Brother Li, be careful."
"Um."
After getting up, Han Li put the May 4th Style on Yun Yingying's bed, kissed her before walking to the dining car.
When Han Li came to the dining car, there were already a lot of people here, but many of them were invited here because of fare evasion. Not only did these people have to pay a fine, otherwise they would be kicked off the train at the next stop.
In the middle of the dining car was a female educated youth who was crying loudly. The policeman next to her was talking about the situation she had just discovered.
He said that when he was almost walking to the dining car, he suddenly heard the sound of a girl crying in the toilet. He thought some bad guy was bullying lesbians in there, so he quickly opened the toilet door with his key. But there was only this female educated youth who was crying loudly. The small car window was intact and had not been opened. It didn't look like someone had bullied this female educated youth in the toilet. When asked, she just kept crying without saying anything. The only way is to take her to the dining car and ask her clearly.
The policeman saw that no matter how he asked the girl, she only cried. Her shoulders were hunched from crying, and she looked very miserable.
So someone else came forward to ask. After being questioned by several people and comforted by a female police officer, the female educated youth sobbed and told her situation.
This female educated youth was from the same place as Yang Xiuying, but her father was a cadre who stayed there when he went south.
Later, her father passed away for some reason. Although she was the only daughter in the family, due to special circumstances she could only go to the countryside to work as an educated youth who jumped in the queue. Later, with the help of her father's other friends, she was exempted from joining the queue and became an educated youth in the branch farm. One member.
Her mother is a housewife who came from a mountain village. She has no job and no income. She relies on her to support her mother by living frugally here. She must remit money home on time every month, otherwise her mother's source of livelihood will be lost. It's going to break.
But this month, she thought she would be able to go home, so she did not send her salary home. She planned to take it back with her, which would save some remittance costs.
But in order to prevent someone from stealing it on the road, she put all the money in her tight-fitting pants. However, this girl did not sew a small pocket and just left it carelessly. As a result, she became confused when she went to the toilet at night. In a daze, all the money fell out. By the time she found out, the money had flown out of the car through the excretion hole.
After hearing this, everyone has already clarified the matter. Everyone knows what is lacking, but they can't say it out loud.
Now they, mother and daughter, are helpless and will soon have no means of livelihood. Everyone feels uncomfortable watching this.
Han Li didn't care what others thought, he couldn't help but stood up first, took out ten yuan from his pocket and put it in front of the female educated youth and said.
"The educated youth in the world are one family, and they are all working to build a beautiful motherland. If you are able, please help."
After Han Li finished speaking, he turned around and left without giving the female educated youth a chance to speak.
However, under his leadership, the place turned into a fundraising scene, and various voices came from behind to give money.
After Han Li returned, he whispered what had happened to Yun Yingying, and then the two of them lay together and slept until dawn.
.
On the second day on the train, some people who were caught evading fares and had no money to pay for their fares were kicked off the train. They stood on the platform looking miserable. If these people couldn't get on the train, they would end up giving electricity to their families. I asked my family to send money to buy a ticket home.
Han Li woke up early and briefly moved his body in the corridor of the carriage, and then went to wash his face and brush his teeth with Yun Yingying.
The others woke up one after another. The fatigue from yesterday's journey and Han Li's presence made them sleep soundly.
Everyone woke up, brushed their teeth and washed their faces. For breakfast, they ate fried noodles provided by Han Li's family, and washed them down with hot water.
A few of them were still playing cards and chatting after breakfast, but this was also the last day, because Han Li and the others would arrive at the station early tomorrow morning, and then they could help Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying transfer and go home.
When playing cards, Yang Xiuying heard about what happened last night from Yun Yingying. Especially when she knew that the other party was actually from the same hometown, she couldn't help but want to go over and take a look. No one stopped her from making this choice. Maybe the other party was from the same city.
So Han Li took the poker cards from her hand and played against several people. When they were playing well, Yang Xiuying came back with a constipated expression on her face. There was an indescribable smell on her body. Hao Hongmin asked while covering her nose.
"Xiuying, didn't you go to meet your fellow countrymen? Did you fall into a manure pit on the way? But there doesn't seem to be a manure pit on the train, right?"
"Don't mention it. The dining car is fine, but the other side of the dining car is another world. Not only are there too many people to stay, but I just accidentally bumped into one of them, and he exploded like a firecracker. Not only did he curse me in a very unpleasant dialect, but he also waved his fist to hit me. Don't mention how heartbreaking the situation was at that time.
The most important thing is the smell in those carriages. Maybe no one opened the window all night, and the air in the carriage was filthy, full of garlic, food, sweat, alcohol, cigarettes, stinky feet, burnt smell, body odor, and feces and urine in the toilet. This mixture almost sent me away. Sister Hongmin, we won't have to sit in such a carriage after we change trains, right?"
Han Li looked at Yang Xiuying's worried expression and Hao Hongmin's unclear look, and smiled and comforted her.
"After changing trains at Sijiucheng, the number of people on the train may not necessarily decrease, but the situation in other carriages will definitely not occur."
"Why?"
"Think about it, Sijiucheng is the imperial capital. If it is the first train, it will be cleaned very well. Moreover, Sijiucheng does not need educated youth from other places to work in the countryside, so there will not be so many people, and the carriage will not be too crowded.
In addition, Sijiucheng should be the key time for planting winter wheat now, so even if there are many people, they should be other people. Even if the situation you are worried about occurs, it will be much better."
"Hey, Sijiucheng is worthy of being the imperial capital. The treatment is good."
"Haha, what's good about it? ? If it was really that good, my sister, brother Li and I wouldn't have to go to the countryside to join the production team. "
"By the way, Xiuying, did you see that fellow villager? Did she change trains in Sijiucheng like me?"
"Yes, that girl is You Yuqin, and her ticket is to change trains at *zhou Station. After she knew that Han Li was the one who took the lead in helping, she asked me about Han Li's situation. If the dining car hadn't stopped her from coming and Han Li had gotten married, I saw that You Yuqin's eyes wanted to repay Han Li with her body. "
Yang Xiuying's words made everyone laugh, but no one noticed that Hao Hongmin had a hint of confusion in her eyes when she laughed.
The train clanged and clanged on the rails. Han Li and his friends were quite content reading books, playing cards, and chatting. Only when they arrived at a large station with a longer stop would they go to the platform in batches to take a walk.
Han Li discovered something very interesting when he was taking a walk on the platform. Some of the train attendants, drivers or police officers would take out some specialties from other places from the carriage and give them to their acquaintances here.
Later, Han Li found that these things were locked in the toilet in advance. When passing by some small stations without stopping, they would throw them directly out of the window, and the people outside would pick them up immediately.
For this reason, Han Li also specially used his mental power to check the contents of the packages and found that they were all colorful cloths that were only available in big cities, and some were food. Among them, the red sausages in Bingcheng were the most, which also showed that it was the most popular.
This behavior can be said to be convenient, or it can be said that you steal whatever you want, but this seems to be a superficial **. The other attendants and staff did not see any abnormality after seeing it.
Nothing special happened all day today. They did not encounter any thieves, shrews, or patients, but the sky had dimmed again without them noticing.
After dinner, everyone felt a little bored with chatting, so they lay down on the bed early to rest.
Han Li had rested for quite a while during the day, so he was not sleepy at all. He started to walk around the carriage, or leaned against the window to look at the dark night view outside.
After the lights on the train were turned off, Han Li stood up in front of the window and stretched, intending to go to the toilet and then come back to sleep.
However
