She was not stupid. She had to pay 40 yuan to ride all the way to the north city in the wind and sun.
As soon as Lin Cuihua finished speaking, the man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks immediately changed his expression. He glanced at Lin Cuihua and said in a sinister tone.
"Hey, old woman, don't be so shameless. I let you take the truck with me and charged you 40 yuan. I'm doing you a favor, don't you understand? If you don't give me 40 yuan, then you'll have to spend 45 yuan on a bus to the north city. You'd better think about it carefully and don't be ungrateful."
Damn, it’s really not easy to earn a few dozen more dollars, and he has to be threatened by an old lady. Is it easy for him?
After the pointed-faced man finished speaking, Lin Cuihua's face turned bad. She put her hands on her hips, acted like a shrew, and said harshly.
"Bah! I'd rather spend 45 dollars to take a bus than take your lousy truck. Don't dream on it."
After saying that, he went to the ticket window with great backbone and shouted to the ticket seller who had already painted his nails with nail polish and was cutting his nails with nail clippers.
"Conductor, didn't you just say you'd give me a ticket for an extra ten yuan? I'll give you an extra ten yuan now. Hurry up and get me a bus ticket to North City."
After saying that, she took out a 50-yuan bill generously and threw it at the ticket seller. This bill was the one that Ruan Wanxin's man Chen Sibin gave her yesterday when she stopped Ruan Wanxin and wanted to take her car, but she didn't agree.
She still couldn't believe that she couldn't go to North City even though she had money in her pocket. At this moment, Lin Cuihua stood in front of the ticket window like a rooster that had won a fight.
Maybe it was because Lin Cuihua was too confident or her voice was too loud, but the ticket seller who was sitting at the ticket window and cutting her nails was frightened and shuddered. The nail clippers slid downwards, not only damaging her nails, but also leaving a bloody mark on the flesh of her fingers, which began to drip blood.
The ticket seller quickly pulled out a piece of toilet paper from the side, pinched his bleeding finger, and cursed to himself.
"I'm so unlucky today. Why is this old woman haunting me? She's here again."
And every time he showed up, something bad would happen. The first time he came to buy a ticket, he caused her nail polish to be unevenly applied. The second time he came to buy a ticket, not only did he damage her painted nails, but he also injured her fingers. It was simply weird.
Lin Cuihua, who was standing at the ticket window, obviously heard the ticket seller's curse. She stared at the salesperson inside with her eyes fixed, and saw the salesperson with injured fingers stand up at the same time.
He looked at Lin Cuihua fiercely. The moment their eyes met, the salesperson threw the 50 yuan that Lin Cuihua had just thrown into the window back to her face. She was stunned for a moment.
The next moment, Lin Cuihua clearly read the destructive aura in the other person's eyes. The ticket seller wrapped his fingers with toilet paper and yelled at Lin Cuihua outside the ticket window.
"You damn old woman, I've already told you there are no tickets. I asked you to pay more to make up for it, but you refused. Now all the tickets are sold out. Stop nagging me. If you want to take the bus, get up early tomorrow!"
After saying that, she left without looking back. Even if she had a ticket, the ticket seller would not sell her the ticket after her good mood was disturbed twice by that damn old lady Lin Cuihua.
At worst, after this annoying old woman leaves, she can charge five dollars less and sell the ticket to someone else. Anyway, it's still early before the train leaves, so there's no need to worry about not being able to sell the tickets.
I should not have paid any attention to this old woman. She ruined my mood again and again, and finally made my finger bleed. I simply didn't check the almanac before going out today.
The ticket seller cursed the old lady Lin Cuihua in his heart and left without looking back, because he didn't want to sell the ticket to Lin Cuihua.
This damn old woman is so weird that the ticket seller doesn't even want to talk to her. If she continues talking, the light from the roof might fall down again and hit her on the head. That would be terrible.
Lin Cuihua was dumbfounded. She watched the conductor leave the ticket window without looking back. She became manic and started yelling at the conductor's back.
"Hey, don't go! Didn't you say you'd get me a ticket for an extra ten bucks? Why are there no tickets now? Explain to me..."
Lin Cuihua was so angry that she stood in front of the ticket window, pointing at the salesperson's back and cursing, but all she got in response was the salesperson's back getting farther and farther away.
In the end, even the other ticket sellers in the room couldn't stand it anymore and slammed the door and left.
Lin Cuihua still stood in front of the ticket window and cursed at the empty ticket office until she was tired of cursing and no one paid any attention to her. She could only find a place to sit down and said viciously.
"Damn it! The world is really going downhill. The world has changed. I have to beg people to buy a ticket. The problem is, even if I pay more, they won't give me a ticket."
All she got in response was still silence in the room. Passersby looked at her as if she was a lunatic, but Lin Cuihua didn't think she was wrong and continued to curse incessantly.
The man with a pointed chin and monkey face stood not far away with his arms folded, watching what was going on between Lin Cuihua and the ticket seller. When Lin Cuicuihua got tired of scolding him, he stomped over and said with a sinister smile.
"How is it? Bus tickets are hard to buy, right? Even if you pay 45 yuan, they still won't let you take the bus?"
At this point, a gloating smile appeared on the face of the man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks. Lin Cuihua's face became even angrier, and she felt even more aggrieved.
I heard the man continue to strike while the iron was hot.
"There's no hope of taking the bus now. How about taking my truck? It'll only cost you 40 yuan, and we'll go to North City right away, and you'll still be in time for dinner."
As he said this, the man with a pointed chin and monkey face looked up at the sky, with an expression that said if they didn't leave now, it would be dark and time waits for no one.
Lin Cuihua didn't know what had possessed her. She followed the man's gaze towards the sky and saw that the sun was already high in the sky. It was indeed getting late. She could only suppress all the anger in her heart and looked at the pointed-faced man, saying hatefully.
"Okay, I'll take the truck with you, but let's make a deal. I can't give you the money right away. I'll give you 40 yuan after we get to Beicheng. What do you say?"
After all, the bus belongs to a state-owned enterprise. You have paid for it, and they will not kick her off the bus for no reason.
This man had a pointed face and monkey cheeks, and he didn't look like a good person. He said he was a truck driver, but who knew what he did? What if after giving her the money, he found a desolate place on the way and abandoned her, not letting her take the bus? Wouldn't she be at a huge loss?
