Return to the ’70s: A Young Educated Youth’s Slow Descent

In her past life, Sheng Kangning was the classic naive girl—easily manipulated by her scheming stepmother and half-sister, blindly following their every move.

Branded with a ruined reputati...

Chapter 51 Our two families are old friends

After Zhou Shen finished his breakfast, he left the car again. No one knew where he went, but he looked very mysterious.

Later, the train passed several stations and more people got on.

At noon, Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei suggested eating the dry food they bought. They had not eaten the dozens of sesame pancakes they bought yet!

Zhou Xiaoran insisted on eating in the dining car.

Chu Nanzhou also agreed.

It’s tiring to ride in a car for several days in a row. If you don’t eat well, you will lose weight.

Chu Nanzhou insisted on going to the dining car. Xu Hongmei, of course, listened to her boss and agreed. Sheng Kangning was left alone, and Xiaobao hugged his neck and shouted, "Mom, go! Go!"

Sheng Kangning had no choice but to follow.

On the way to the dining car, Sheng Kangning had difficulty walking by himself, so Xiaobao was carried over by Chu Nanzhou and rode directly on Chu Nanzhou's neck. The man was tall.

In this way, Xiaobao could see very far and he patted Chu Nanzhou's head with joy.

Li Youfu insisted on staying to look after the luggage.

Chu Nanzhou said that he would bring him a box lunch when he came back.

The dishes at noon are much more sumptuous than those in the morning and dinner. Today there are braised pork, stir-fried pork with garlic chives, and cabbage and potato slices. There is no fermented glutinous rice and egg soup today, but there is tomato and egg soup.

When they arrived, the tables on the dining car were piled with lunch boxes. Several waiters in work clothes were carrying baskets to fill the lunch boxes. Since the cart could not be pushed through, they could only carry the baskets to sell the lunch boxes.

Those who come to the dining car to eat today can only buy boxed lunches.

Sheng Kangning ordered a box, which contained white rice and two dishes, braised pork and cabbage and potato chips.

In addition to a box of rice, Xu Hongmei also ordered three large steamed buns. Chu Nanzhou ordered the same dish as Sheng Kangning, and added five large steamed buns.

Zhou Xiaoran's appetite is about the same as Sheng Kangning's. Because she is fatter than Sheng Kangning, she deliberately eats less after getting in the car, trying to lose a few pounds.

So she just asked for a box lunch.

Chu Nanzhou knew that Sheng Kangning liked to drink soup, so he ordered a tomato and egg soup.

Before eating, Sheng Kangning asked for a large bowl of boiling water and left it to cool so that he could use it to make milk powder for Xiaobao.

The braised pork tastes pretty good and melts in your mouth.

Sheng Kangning didn't eat much, but even though he was slow, he was the first to finish.

After eating, I tested the temperature of the water in the big bowl. When I thought it was about right, I made milk powder for Xiaobao.

Xu Hongmei and Chu Nanzhou have similar appetites and both eat a lot.

After all, there were not many people eating in the dining car, so the seats were sparsely occupied and a group of people chatted while eating.

Especially Zhou Xiaoran, this girl is quite smart. After arriving at the dining car, she waited for Chu Nanzhou to sit down first, and then immediately chose a seat opposite Chu Nanzhou and sat down, that is, face to face with Chu Nanzhou.

We can see each other just by looking up.

Sheng Kangning was pushed by Xu Hongmei to sit next to Chu Nanzhou, and Xu Hongmei sat next to Zhou Xiaoran.

Xiaobao was originally on Chu Nanzhou's body. When he saw Sheng Kangning sitting down, he immediately crawled over to Sheng Kangning and nestled in Sheng Kangning's arms.

After Sheng Kangning finished feeding Xiaobao the milk powder, Chu Nanzhou served Sheng Kangning a bowl of tomato and egg soup:

“Have some soup!”

Sheng Kangning hummed.

This scene made Zhou Xiaoran feel uneasy.

He also asked for a bowl and pushed it in front of Chu Nanzhou: "Brother Chu, I want to drink too!"

Chu Nanzhou frowned and glanced at Zhou Xiaoran. Before Chu Nanzhou could speak, Xu Hongmei smiled:

"If you want to drink, pour it yourself!"

Zhou Xiaoran looked at Sheng Kangning, meaning not to be too obvious, she, Sheng Kangning, was not as good as herself!

Xu Hongmei pointed at Xiaobao:

"Can't you see Kang Ning holding Xiao Bao? If you don't want to do it yourself, I'll help you!"

After saying that, Xu Hongmei was about to serve soup to Zhou Xiaoran.

Zhou Xiaoran pulled the bowl over and said, "I'll use you to serve it!"

When I was walking back after dinner and passed the No. 13 carriage, someone suddenly shouted:

"Kangning! Sheng Kangning! Are you here to see me?"

There are many people and the noise is diverse.

Sheng Kangning didn't hear it, so he turned around, looked in the direction of the voice, and saw Meng Yong.

Sheng Kangning frowned.

How come this person is on this train?

Meng Yong should not be the last one to go to the Great Northern Wilderness.

Meng Yong actually took a quick glance and felt that the man's back looked very similar to Sheng Kangning, but he couldn't be sure that this man was Sheng Kangning.

Since he got on this train.

He kept wandering around the carriages looking for Sheng Kangning, but couldn't find him.

I didn't expect to encounter this time.

Meng Yong squeezed over excitedly.

He laughed and shouted, "Kang Ning, it's really you! Which car are you in? I've been looking for you for a long time and can't find you!"

Sheng Kangning had a calm expression on his face and nodded to Meng Yong:

“You’re taking this train too!”

Meng Yong nodded:

"Kang Ning, you are so mean. Didn't I tell you that if you go to the countryside, I will go to the countryside too? You didn't even tell me when you signed up. If I hadn't gone to the Youth League Office to ask about your situation, I wouldn't have known you were in the first batch to leave!"

Sheng Kangning pursed his lips and understood.

In other words, this person signed up after asking about his own situation.

Sheng Kangning didn't want to have much contact with him at all, because this guy was always talking to himself and didn't listen to Sheng Kangning at all.

So it was useless for Sheng Kangning to say anything.

"I'm leaving!" Sheng Kangning said in a bland tone, then turned around and walked forward.

Meng Yong said anxiously: "Which car are you in? I'll go find you!"

"No, there are too many people on the bus, I'm leaving first!"

Zhou Xiaoran, who had been complaining about the crowded and bad smell in the carriage, suddenly fell silent after Meng Yong appeared. He looked at Sheng Kangning with flickering eyes, and then at Meng Yong.
