Chapter 90 Moral Kidnapping
Looking at the woman, Su Wan was about to ask which bed she lived in when she spoke again.
"I bought a standing ticket. You see, it's very inconvenient for me to bring my child with me. Can you give me your sleeper ticket?"
The woman was holding a little boy about two years old in her arms, and she was carrying a lot of bags in her hands. She looked embarrassed, but her round eyes were looking at Su Wan's position.
For a moment, Su Wan felt as if she was being morally kidnapped.
She shook her head and said, "Why don't you buy a sleeper ticket? I'm pregnant and it's not convenient for me to move."
The woman opened her mouth and said, "How is it possible? You are dressed so fashionably, how could you be pregnant?"
How can a married and pregnant woman dress so beautifully? She is wearing lambskin boots on her feet. You can tell at first glance that she is a rich girl.
Su Wan touched her belly and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, big sister. I'm going to Heilongjiang Province to visit my lover. It takes two days by train. If I wasn't pregnant, how could I bear to take the sleeper?"
"Even if you're pregnant, you can still sit down."
The woman pointed to the area in front of the berth and said to Su Wan, "How about I sleep for a while when I'm tired and you sit, and I sit when you're tired. Is that okay?"
Her tone was very earnest. The child in her arms was awakened by the noisy sounds around them and was whimpering and wanted to cry.
The people around heard the woman's words and said to Su Wan, "Big sister, this is not a big deal. It is indeed hard for her to take care of the child. Why don't you switch with her?"
Hearing this, others also began to agree.
Su Wan had taken a train when she was studying in her previous life, but she had never been morally kidnapped like this.
She took a deep breath and said to those around her who had spoken out, "I see that you all are so kind-hearted, healthy, and loud. It's not like me who's pregnant and needs to sit on a train for two days. Why don't you all give up your seats?"
Hearing this, the person who was talking just now fell silent instantly.
They are not fools, how could they give their place to others?
Seeing that no one else said anything, Su Wan said calmly, "I'm sorry, sister. I asked someone to pay extra for the sleeper berth ticket. If you want to take a sleeper berth, I see that the other seats are not full. You can ask the conductor to pay extra and you can get a seat."
The woman stammered and said nothing, and the child in her arms suddenly burst into tears for some reason.
A man in his thirties or forties stood up, glanced coldly at the people here, and said to the woman, "Big sister, I live in the lower bunk next door. If you don't mind, you can stay with me!"
"Thank you, brother. You are such a good person!"
The woman took the child and went to the next room. She looked at Su Wan deeply again, her eyes seemed to want to gouge her out.
Su Wan ignored her, put away the luggage, and lay down on the lower bunk.
The train departed quickly. Su Wan took out the buns wrapped in oil paper by Grandma Zhao from the outside of the luggage and began to eat them ravenously.
She was really hungry. If she didn't finish the hot buns quickly, they would be cold by the time the train arrived at another station.
Only after eating five meat buns in one go did Su Wan feel like he was alive again.
Lying on the berth, it was so hard that it was not comfortable at all.
Dinner was served four hours after the train left.
They were only two carriages away from the carriage where meals were served. Su Wan was worried that they would have nothing to eat in the evening, so she put her luggage away, took her lunch box and went to get some food.
There was rice and noodles on the train. When Su Wan arrived, a man in his twenties who lived in the middle bunk called her over.
"Comrade, do you want to go get some food?"
"right."
Su Wan paused, then listened to the older brother continue, "I want to eat too. Could you please bring me some? I'll pay you and help look after things for me. If you're worried, I'll go and you can look after things for me next time."
The eldest brother wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and looked very gentle. He seemed afraid that Su Wan would doubt him, so he took out his work ID and handed it to Su Wan.
"I work for an infrastructure company and am also going to Heilongjiang Province. The journey will take two days, and I have important documents in my bag, so I can't leave."
The name printed on Su Wan’s work ID is Pei Jin, Deputy Director of Infrastructure of Guangdong Province.
"Give me your lunch box!"
Pei Jin handed Su Wan a lunch box and five yuan. "You can have anything you want. I'm not picky about food, but you can order more. Sorry for the inconvenience!"
He was very polite, and seemed afraid of troubling Su Wan too much, and he was a little nervous when he spoke.
Su Wan responded and took his lunch box to the train dining car.
Not many people on the train were willing to spend money on meals, so Su Wan brought a large lunch box for convenience. Pei Jin's lunch box was even bigger than hers. Su Wan packed him half rice and half vegetables, including stewed beef with potatoes and braised pork, with vegetables, which cost a total of one yuan and ninety cents.
Su Wan returned to the carriage with the lunch box and handed it to Pei Jin.
"Your share is $1.90, and I'll give you $3.10."
After handing the money to Pei Jin, Su Wan heard him politely say, "Thank you!"
"I'm going to get some water. There's going to be a queue soon because there's a lot of people. Do you want some?"
Since he was already helping to get food, Su Wan simply asked one more question.
Pei Jin hesitated for a moment, then handed his thermos cup to Su Wan. "Thank you for your help!"
"It's just a matter of convenience."
Su Wan took the thermos and sighed that the thermos made in the 1980s was really - quite old-fashioned.
Even though the thermos cup Pei Jin gave her was new, the pattern on it was very contemporary.
She also has a thermos cup, which was bought by her second brother, saying that it is convenient for going out on weekdays. It is also a parallel imported product.
There were more people fetching water, and Su Wan waited for three minutes before it was her turn. After she got the water, she turned around and saw the woman who had talked to her at the beginning and asked for a seat. Before she could speak, the woman snorted coldly, her eyes full of coldness.
"Girls these days are incredible. If they don't want to be given a position, they'll even make up stories about being pregnant."
Seeing that she was acting weird, Su Wan ignored her and returned to his seat after fetching water.
She had just sat down when Pei Jin, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, handed her some papers.
"The table is dirty, please wipe it!"
The paper towels in the 1980s were not as soft and white as those in later generations. Most of the paper towels at that time were relatively rough. After wiping the table clean, Su Wan sat there and started to eat.
She ate very quickly, but it wasn't like she was in a hurry.
But there were all kinds of smells on the train, so she wanted to finish her meal early to avoid being overwhelmed by the smell.
Pei Jin saw that she ate quickly and sat there without saying anything.
Just curious, is this girl really married or is it fake?
She looks to be only around 20 years old. If she really gets married, doesn't that mean she is not yet of legal age?
