"Comrade conductor, my wife is pregnant. I want to pay for another seat. Any seat will do."
Ren Jingxiao couldn't squeeze through, and was worried about Xia Xia staying there, so he shouted directly at the ticket seller standing at the door.
The conductor glanced at the driver, who nodded. Both of them understood what was going on.
These tickets are purchased at the bus station, and they have nothing to do with whether you get on the bus or get a refund.
This is not like a train where you can buy a ticket when you get on. Here you get on with a ticket. The conductor only checks the tickets, manages them and does the work of sorting them out later, but does not have the actual right to sell tickets.
Ren Jingxiao's request for a new ticket after buying it was a rare opportunity for them to make money, so they would definitely not refuse it.
"Come here, this ticket is not cheap, you have to think carefully." The ticket seller asked again.
Don't just sit back and not pay in the end. They don't dare to force them to pay. What if they report it?
"Of course we will make it up. As long as we find a seat, we will pay for the ticket now." Ren Jingxiao directly picked up Ningxia.
It is inevitable to bump into people when squeezing through this aisle. Ren Jingxiao saw these men and women, and he didn't want his Xia Xia to bump into them.
"You're such a squeamish person! If you're afraid of getting tired, don't take the bus!"
"That's right. When we were young, we didn't even have to drive a car. We even walked to the provincial capital."
"What's the big deal about being pregnant? I gave birth at night and got up the next day to cook and work. Who in the surrounding area didn't know I was capable?"
Ren Jingxiao's action made many female comrades in the car unbearable, and they looked at Ningxia and criticized her in various ways.
"That's because you haven't met a good man. My man loves me, so what can I do? Are you envious of me?"
Ningxia stuck her head out from Ren Jingxiao's arms and replied to the women who were talking with a smile.
The women paused, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say. They were not envious.
They just felt that she was bringing shame to them as women, but they were told that it was their men who cared about them, so what else could they say?
Especially when they had just finished speaking, the man turned around and glared at them, just like their men did when they were angry and wanted to beat someone up. They shut their mouths and dared not say anything.
But I thought to myself: I can tell from this that he is just like them and gets beaten a lot at home.
Ren Jingxiao hugged Ningxia and put her to the position indicated by the ticket seller, which was next to the driver.
There was a bench there that should have been occupied by the ticket seller himself, but it was given to them now.
"Xia Xia, sit down and rest for a while." Ren Jingxiao helped Ning Xia sit down and handed the money in his pocket to the ticket seller who had been standing.
He was afraid that if he didn't pay, the driver would not be able to drive safely, so he kept looking around after they came over.
"Come and sit here too, let's squeeze in." The chair wasn't very big, but fortunately the place was spacious enough.
Ren Jingxiao felt that this location was quite dangerous. There was nothing to block the view around. If the driver suddenly braked, Xia Xia would have to rush out.
"I'll sit on the floor. That chair is too small." Ren Jingxiao was about to sit down, but Ningxia stopped him.
He lowered his head to look for something in the bag. In fact, he used the bag as a cover to take out an old piece of clothing from the space.
"Put this under your butt." Ningxia handed the clothes to Ren Jingxiao. It was very difficult for her to sit down and stand up again. Her stomach felt as heavy as if she was carrying a stone.
Ren Jingxiao sat firmly on the cushion, then put his arms around Ningxia from behind. It looked like he was half-hugging her, but in fact he was holding a pole beside him to steady Ningxia's back.
Ningxia sat down and her lower back was sore because she had no support. Ren Jingxiao stretched out his arm and Ningxia naturally leaned on it.
"Humph, there are so many people here, it's shameless to pull and tug in public." Everyone sitting over there looked this way. This man was really different from the ones they had seen before.
It's not uncommon for a man to love his wife, but it's rare for him to love his wife this much.
The two women sitting there spoke in a low voice. They both knew that the man treated his wives like the palm of his hand, but he would not be polite to them.
"If you could find someone like that, your father and I would be able to relax. Look at how much that man loves his wife. That woman will have such a happy life! Don't always think about family background. Do men from wealthy families really care about others like this?"
The old lady looked at her daughter and found the right moment to persuade her.
"I wouldn't be interested in that kind of guy. This isn't the way to show your love to your wife. If you don't have money, how can you show your love to her? With your mouth? My future partner must be good. I haven't seen many country guys with good conditions. They don't have any knowledge or looks."
The girl remained unmoved, and looked at Ningxia with disdain. What a waste of that face! If she had that face, she could find someone better than that guy with her eyes closed.
Loving your wife? As long as you have money, you can love her however you want. She looked at the man over there who closed his eyes and ignored her mother. She was very clear-headed.
If Ningxia knew what she was thinking, she would definitely secretly praise her for living a wise life, but everyone's choices are different.
Imagination and reality are also different. Everyone wants to choose someone with good conditions and a handsome appearance, and everything must meet the standards.
People like that will only have higher standards. What is there in you that others would like?
People have to face the reality. Even if you use force to get in, you will still appear out of place.
Ningxia knew that if she had risked her appearance, she could have stayed in Jiang Province.
But she didn't want to have anything to do with that big family. In this era, even if you have great abilities, you can't use them.
A relationship based on appearance will not last long. Ningxia is more clear-headed than anyone else. Before she met Ren Jingxiao, she had never thought about finding someone with better conditions.
Or perhaps she had never thought about finding a partner at the beginning, but when she met Ren Jingxiao, no matter what his conditions were, she knew that he was the one she wanted.
She is also very realistic, but she wants something more, and Ren Jingxiao is what she wants.
No matter how good others are or how favorable their conditions are, she will not be moved by them.
On the way, Ren Jingxiao helped Ningxia stand up for a while. Ningxia was afraid of getting upset, so she held her stomach carefully all the way.
The car was driving too slowly. Ningxia felt that she could walk faster on some roads than the car. By the time she arrived at the provincial capital, the sun had already set.
"Let's go to the Ministry of Transportation first. If Third Uncle comes home after get off work, we can go and ask where the Ministry of Transportation's family compound is." Ren Jingxiao came here and after getting off the car, he helped Ningxia to go to the Ministry of Transportation.
"Okay." Ningxia stretched her waist. She had never straightened her legs since she sat down, and Ren Jingxiao had been holding it in all the way.
