I don’t know how many days I will be gone, so Zhou Suisui should make some plans for the three children first.

Go to the kitchen and fill the egg basket, then add the rice and flour, refill all the seasoning bottles in the house, and take out a piece of meat and put it in the well.

I went to Da Wa's room to restock their snack cabinet with White Rabbit milk candy, canned fruit, and breakfast biscuits.

Zhou Suisui also took out some fruits that could be stored, such as apples and pears, from the space, intending to tell Da Wa and the others to eat them quickly.

Then Zhou Suisui planned to make some food for the journey. As for the train tickets, the army sent them directly when they sent the letter. They were soft sleeper tickets.

So there is no need to rush to buy tickets for the new year.

First, scoop some flour into a bowl and beat a few eggs. Then Zhou Suisui washed two green onions and cut some into pieces and put them in.

Add some salt and black pepper, mix well, put it in the pan after the oil is hot, and spread it into thin pancakes. Zhou Sui Sui made a total of eight pancakes, which were convenient for eating on the road.

Make some tea eggs.

Boil the tea leaves, wash the eggs, put them in the pot and cook for ten minutes, then use a spatula to break them up and cook for another ten minutes.

Zhou Suisui uses a clay pot to cook tea eggs. Just take the clay pot away and let it cool.

Made it tonight and it will be just right for tomorrow morning.

Zhou Suisui still doesn’t know what Gu Jingheng’s condition is, so he has to take some money.

All the money Zhou Suisui earned was thrown into the space and he rarely took it out to count it. He just took out as much as he needed to spend.

Today I plan to take it out and count it.

She wrote manuscripts for more than a year and earned about 600 yuan a month.

Sometimes she wanted to give herself a break and be lazy for a few days, so when she was diligent, she earned about 800 yuan, and when she was lazy, she earned about 500 yuan.

She didn't spend the money that Gu Jingheng sent her, a total of 395 yuan.

After deducting the daily expenses from the royalties, the total amount is about 5,400 yuan.

Zhou Suisui took out four hundred yuan and put it in the inside pocket of his clothes, as well as some bills, which he took out casually.

Zhou Suisui was busy at home when Gu's mother suddenly came.

"Mom." Zhou Suisui saw it in the house.

"Why are you here? Are you still dizzy?"

Mother Gu said, "I'm much better now. I'm fine. Don't worry about me. I came here to get you some money. We don't know how the third child is doing yet. It's better to have money in your hands when you're away from home."

When Zhou Suisui saw the hundred yuan in Gu's mother's hand, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Mom, no need. I have money, so why do I need your money? Don't worry, I will go and see how Jingheng is doing and will take good care of him." Zhou Suisui gave the money because he thought that Gu's mother was afraid that he could not take good care of Gu Jingheng.

No matter what, she is just a daughter-in-law. Now her own son is injured. How can a mother not be anxious?

When Mother Gu saw that Zhou Suisui had misunderstood, she quickly said, "It's not the third brother's family. You misunderstood me. You're going on a long journey alone, and the third brother is injured. I'm worried about what you'd do if something happened to you or you ran out of money. This is what your father and I meant. Take it."

Mother Gu put the money on the table.

If Zhou Suisui refuses again, it would be ungrateful. Although she does not need the hundred yuan, it is a token of her care for her parents. Zhou Suisui does not intend to refuse it. At most, she can show more filial piety to the old couple in the future.

"Thank you, Mom." Zhou Suisui said with a smile.

"Mom, I've prepared everything at home. You, my dad, and Da Wa should have enough to eat these days. There's also a piece of meat in the well. Cook it and eat it in the next two days so it doesn't go bad."

"Then, Mom, the eldest and second kids go to school at 8:30, and the third kid won't pee in the middle of the night anymore. Don't worry, Mom, there's a new quilt in the closet."

Zhou Suisui was giving Gu's mother instructions one by one.

Since she came here, she has never traveled far and is indeed worried about these children.

Seeing Zhou Suisui like this, Gu's mother sighed and said that the third brother's family really lived a life of ease.

Although she is extravagant, she is very kind to her husband and children.

"Don't worry, I've remembered everything and will definitely take good care of them," said Mother Gu.

I feel relieved when I grow old.

"When are you leaving?" asked Gu's mother.

"Tomorrow morning, mother, you can just come tomorrow."

—————

The next morning, Zhou Sui Sui made a cup of milk powder and ate a tea egg. In addition to food, he also packed two sets of clothes in his bag.

I told the three brothers, Da Wa and the other two, last night. They asked right away, "Mom, is Dad seriously injured?"

"Just don't worry about your dad. You and Erwa should finish your homework. I'll check your learning results when I come back."

"We understand." Big and Little Two said loudly.

When Sanwa heard that his mother was leaving tomorrow, he said he would not sleep with his brothers tonight and wanted to sleep with his mother in his arms.

"Sanwa, you are a grown-up boy now and you can't sleep with your mother anymore." Erwa tried to stop her.

Sanwa hugged Zhou Suisui's arm and refused to let go: "No, I want to sleep with Mom."

Zhou Suisui looked at the two kids who were obviously moved, and simply said, "Okay, then, the three of you will sleep with me tonight. Is that okay?"

My son loves me too much. A child who knows how to act coquettishly is a good child. Zhou Suisui doesn't resist his sons' coquettishness.

So the next morning, Zhou Suisui set off in the sweet dreams of his three sons.

First go to the village entrance and take the village ox cart to the county town, and then go to the railway station in the county town to take a bus.

A ride on an oxcart cost two cents. When the oxcart driver, Uncle Wang, saw Zhou Suisui, he smiled and asked, "Is Jingheng's wife going to the city?"

Last time, the pig's trotters that Zhou Sui Sui made for my daughter-in-law were particularly delicious. My wife kept praising Zhou Sui Sui, saying that she was good at making money and was kind, and had a good heart.

"Yeah." Zhou Suisui didn't plan to tell anyone else about Gu Jingheng's injury. After all, it was not a good thing, and he didn't want others to know.

Half an hour later, Zhou Suisui arrived at the county town. Zhou Suisui looked at the time and saw that it was already 7:30. The train was at 8:40, so he still had time to catch it.

Zhou Suisui went to the supply and marketing cooperative and found that they were selling oranges at that time.

Zhou Suisui bought a pound of oranges, planning to eat them on the way. After all, there are all kinds of smells on the train. People nowadays don’t pay as much attention to hygiene as people in later generations. It’s good to smell some orange peels.

The environment of the soft sleeper is quite good. There is space for four people, and most people can't get a soft sleeper ticket, so the people inside are also relatively well-educated.

Zhou Suisui was on the upper bunk, and he also liked the upper bunk. The upper bunk of the soft sleeper was not very high, so he got on easily.

The upper bunk is quiet and no one disturbs you.

Later, a middle-aged couple came to Zhou Suisui's room. They looked to be in their forties or fifties.

When the couple saw Zhou Suisui, they asked him in a friendly manner, "Why are you going out alone?"

Zhou Suisui politely replied, "I'm going to the army to find my man."

On the one hand, this is to tell the other party that I bought the ticket through legitimate channels. On the other hand, it is to say that my man is a soldier, and people's hearts are unpredictable, so I still have to ensure my own safety.

I won’t mention the other years.

So the train ride on Zhou Suisui was quite quiet, and it took about twelve hours to arrive.
