They arrived at the train station and booked a train for the next morning.
This time, it was just the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with the child, and Mobao was still at an age where he didn't know anything.
I only knew that I was going to see my father, but I had no idea what being seriously injured meant.
This was his first time taking a train. He had long forgotten about taking a train to the army before. Children have limited memories. Let alone things from a year ago, he couldn't even remember things from a few days ago.
Many people only have some memories of things that happened when they were very young that are particularly impressive.
The rest of the things I think I can remember are mostly stories told by the adults in my family, with some content added by myself. These memories are gradually deepened, and after a long time I think of them as my own.
Since we only needed to take the train for most of the day, we only bought two soft seat tickets, with a table in the middle that could seat six people on both sides.
Jiang Mengxue sat by the window with her calligraphy, and Luan Huiying sat opposite her.
Mo Bao got up too early in the morning and was still sleepy. Now he climbed into Luan Huiying's arms to catch up on his sleep.
Jiang Mengxue also closed her eyes and wanted to see if Gu Qingbei had entered the space.
They hadn't been in contact for a long time. Gu Qingbei must have been injured for some time, but he just didn't have time to inform her.
She searched through all the medicines in the space, checking which ones might be needed and needed to be taken out and prepared in advance.
I don't even know when someone sat down next to me.
By the time everyone in the carriage woke up, the carts selling food were pushed into the carriage, followed by the carts carrying water.
Jiang Mengxue rubbed her head, saw that the food server had arrived, and quickly picked up two lunch boxes to get her food.
There are noodles, big bread, and steamed buns in the morning, but each person can only buy one.
Jiang Mengxue bought two servings of noodles and three steamed buns. The so-called big bread was just made of whole wheat flour, and it was so sore that it made her throat uncomfortable to swallow.
But I just noticed that there were two people sitting next to me.
Jiang Mengxue, who is about the same age as Luan Huiying and the others, smiled at the woman next to her.
The two of them put their bags aside, and it looked like they had been on the train for a long time.
And they seemed to be in good condition, so they didn't feel reluctant to eat and bought two bowls of noodles.
At this time, Mobao also woke up and stretched out his hands to ask his mother to hug him.
However, Luan Huiying was still worried that Jiang Mengxue's body had not recovered well, so she didn't dare let Mo Bao sit on her lap.
Children are always busy and it would be bad if they touch the wound.
However, this little guy was short and there was a lot of space under the table. He climbed down and crawled under the table, then stood next to Jiang Mengxue.
Jiang Mengxue did not stop her and pulled the person over to sit on her lap.
"Mom, it's okay. Mobao is very well behaved. Come and eat, or the noodles will clump together."
Mobao can eat half a bowl by himself, and then have some steamed buns to feel full.
With a mouthful of noodles and a sip of soup, Mo Bao was very satisfied with the meal.
He can eat a lot, but he is not picky about food. He can eat both coarse grains and fine grains, as long as the taste is not particularly bad.
The woman next to him looked at Mo Bao sitting obediently in her arms and eating, and couldn't help but praise him.
"Your child is so sensible. He's so young but he doesn't cry or make a fuss. He's also obedient when eating. He's so well behaved.
Judging from your accent, you're from the Northeast, right? We're also from Qinghe City in the Northeast. Now that we're leaving, we don't know if we'll ever go back."
He said this with a look of regret, as if he had to leave his hometown.
Luan Huiying thought it was quite a coincidence and said, "Really? My husband is also from Qinghe City, but I've only been there a few times."
The woman was also surprised when she heard this. She obviously didn't expect that the person she met on the train was from the same place.
"That's such a coincidence, we are destined to meet. My name is Chen Wenxin, and my husband is Li Zhuojun."
People nowadays are more simple and honest. When they meet fellow villagers when they go out, they are really friendly and don’t have so many complicated thoughts.
Luan Huiying said: "My name is Luan Huiying, this is my daughter-in-law Jiang Mengxue, and my eldest grandson Mobao. We are preparing for me to see my son.
Are you going on a long journey?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhuojun looked a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Chen Wenxin explained: "We are the only two people left in our family. We are not yet at retirement age and we don't have any children. Our nephews are worried about our work and want us to retire and let the younger generation take over.
We wouldn't be unwilling to do so if there were a suitable candidate, but the nephews at home are not the kind of people we can rely on in the future.
Our one son and one daughter are both gone, and if I give up my job, it will be a problem to provide for my retirement.
We were really forced into a corner, so we applied for retirement and planned to visit my hometown. We wanted to go farther away and avoid being harassed again."
Jiang Mengxue listened to their conversation while eating.
This kind of thing is not uncommon. If there are no children, many nephews and younger generations will set their sights on taking care of them.
Not to mention uncles and aunts, even parents are worse.
The situation was not so serious in recent years. But when the educated youth were forced to go to the countryside a few years later, there were many quarrels between fathers and sons, and mothers and daughters, in order to stay in the city for work.
When a few people were chatting, they talked about their hometown. Li Zhuojun said that he had a sister from the same village who also came to the northwest to live with her nephew and niece-in-law to take care of their parents and children.
As he was talking, Chen Wenxin thought that Jiang Mengxue's name seemed a little familiar.
Turning around, I saw that the age and the child were appropriate.
Jiang Mengxue was confused by the look on her face, and then she saw Chen Wenxin slapping his forehead, as if he had just figured something out.
