Ning Xi was notified to go back at the last minute and was urged to pack up and leave immediately. She had no choice but to hurriedly leave three letters, one for Qu Hua, one for Chu Hongchen, and one for Yu Xiaocao.
Mutated flowers that meet the system requirements are not easy to find. During this period of time, Ning Xi has earned a total of 36 star coins, and has not received anything that meets the requirements for two consecutive days.
Including the first day, Yu Xiaocao gave her a total of 11 mutant flowers, but only sold 5 of them, earning 25 star coins.
It was obvious that Yu Xiaocao put a lot of thought into every item she found; it wasn't just something she casually found on the street.
So, even though some flowers do not meet the system's selling standards, Ning Xi will still give her a few broken candies.
"Xiao Cao, I'm leaving now. I'm very happy to have spent this time with you. This 5 yuan is for you. I hope you can study hard, leave the countryside, go to a big city, and live a better life in the future..."
When getting along with Yu Xiaocao, Ning Xi could sense her yearning for the outside world and her curiosity about the educated youth. Whenever she had the chance, she would ask her what the city was like.
The five dollars was a token of her appreciation, and it was quite a bit for the members who didn't see any money all year round.
Not to mention a child.
They packed their things without stopping, and when they finally stopped to catch their breath, Ning Xi was already at the train station, where a woman in her forties or fifties was waiting for them.
There were three people who came to pick her up, two men and one woman. The two men went to Yuzhuang Brigade to pick up Ning Xi.
At first, Ning Xi didn't think anything of it when traveling with two strange middle-aged men. After all, it was not uncommon to occasionally travel on business with colleagues of the opposite sex while at work.
As a result, when they were riding the bus, the two men consciously avoided each other and even sat far away from her. However, when they got off the bus, many people still looked at them curiously, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
This kind of curious gaze followed the few of them until they entered the station and met up with another lady, and then this kind of curious and probing gaze became much less.
Ning Xi also breathed a sigh of relief.
The gap between the two made her have to admit that Zhao Huaiyan was thorough and even the selection of candidates was impeccable.
Uncle Sun told Ning Xi on the way that due to some special reasons, they had to buy a train ticket back that day, so they had to hurry.
"Uncle Sun, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Guan, thank you for coming all the way here." Ning Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief and politely thanked them.
When Ning Xi heard that someone was coming to process her medical retirement, she knew that Zhao Huaiyan had finally come to rescue her. If he didn't come sooner, she would have to get used to this kind of life.
Life wouldn't be so difficult if I didn't rely on work points to make a living.
Moreover, according to her observation, the people in Yuzhuang Brigade are very united, and the brigade leader has the final say here. It is said that his ancestors have been village chiefs for generations.
So there is no need to worry about someone disliking her and reporting her.
Of course it would be better to go back to the city. She is really not interested in bean rice. For some reason, she always feels bloated after eating it.
"It's okay, kid. You didn't suffer, did you?" Guan Yulan looked at the dark and thin Ning Xi and thought to herself that it was no wonder that this girl had a good relationship with Xiaoyu. Their situations were too similar.
One is a biological mother who looks like a stepmother, and the other is a biological father who marries a stepmother who is not much older than his son!
Lust really blinds one's mind.
Fortunately, this father still had some conscience and did not harm his own son.
As she thought about it, Guan Yulan began to feel sorry for Ning Xi.
Ning Xi felt a little strange. It was clearly the first time they met, so why were his eyes full of kindness?
"I'm fine. Aunt Guan, are you carsick?" She saw that the woman had dark circles under her eyes and a yellowish face. She patted her chest and rubbed her eyebrows and temples from time to time.
"Alas, he's too old to be useful. Xiaoyu originally wanted to come himself, but as you know, his legs are not convenient, so I came for him."
"Aunt Guan, I feel really bad that you guys came all this way. He's not in good health and can't be overworked. I'll thank him when I get back."
It is not easy to go out in this era, and letters of introduction are a big problem. It takes several days to take a train from Mingjiang City to Cangyang City.
Although these people were sent by Zhao Huaiyan, Ning Xi was sincerely grateful to them.
Soon, everyone got on the bus. Zhao Huaiyan had arranged all the connections and bought sleeper tickets, so the four of them were together.
"This train has prepared a sumptuous dinner for everyone. Those who need to dine, please go to the dining car, which is carriage No. 9."
Not long after I climbed onto the bed, the train broadcast sounded a meal reminder, and the conductor pushed the dining cart over.
"Boxed lunch, does anyone want a boxed lunch~"
Ning Xi stretched her head to take a look and saw piles of aluminum lunch boxes piled high on the dining cart.
"Comrade, how much is it per portion? What dishes are included?"
Conductor: "Never been on a train before? It's 30 cents per portion, and they all have rice with toppings like shredded pork with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, eggplant with minced meat, mapo tofu, and sliced pork with cucumber. Where's your meal ticket?"
Two or three hours before mealtime, the train attendant will pre-sell meal tickets in the carriage, and the chef will prepare meals based on passenger flow and meal ticket sales.
When it's time for dinner, the train attendant pushes the dining cart and passengers exchange their meal tickets for lunch boxes. When they're almost done eating, the train attendant pushes the dining cart back to collect the lunch boxes.
But we will definitely prepare more to make it convenient for passengers who have just boarded the train to purchase.
Ning Xi nodded innocently: "I didn't buy it. I just got on at Cangyang Station. This is my first time taking a train and I was so curious.
I really envy you for working on the train, no wonder everyone says you train attendants are the most knowledgeable because you can travel all over the country~"
