Chapter 11: She smashed it! It’s awesome!
Jiang Tang was lucky, as there were still two tickets left to reach his destination.
"Comrade, I want both tickets."
The ticket seller at the train station looked at Jiang Tang's deliberately disguised dark face, then glanced at the two "miserable" children who were tightly holding Jiang Tang's clothes, and frowned with pity.
She reminded me, "A train ticket costs more than 20 yuan. Your two children are still young, so they don't need to buy tickets. One ticket is enough for you."
The ticket seller had good intentions and thought that Jiang Tang, her mother and two of her children looked like they couldn't even get enough to eat, so why should they spend money on an extra ticket?
But Jiang Tang was not short of money at all. If there were sleeper tickets available, she would definitely buy one. After all, it was a two-day and one-night train ride, and she wanted to be more comfortable, and she wanted her children to be more comfortable even more.
"Thank you for reminding me, comrade. I want both tickets. Here's the money."
Jiang Tang took out the money and handed it to the ticket seller.
The ticket seller shook his head helplessly, said nothing more, and immediately handed the ticket to Jiang Tang.
The train was just as crowded as Jiang Tang had imagined, with people coming and going, the shelves piled high with luggage of all sizes, and the carriage was filled with a complex and unpleasant smell.
Their seats were right next to the window, so Jiang Tang asked Chaochao and Yueyue to sit on the inside, while she sat on the outside.
The space is a little narrow, but compared to the passengers who have no seats and have to stand in the aisle, they are much better off.
This was the first time Chaochao and Yueyue went out. From the moment they got on the train, they were frightened by the noisy crowd. Chaochao looked around with wide eyes, and Yueyue's frightened little hands tightly grasped Jiang Tang's clothes, fearing that they would be separated from Jiang Tang and the others.
After sitting down in the train compartment, Chao Chao let out a long, imperceptible breath. He was actually scared when he saw such a large crowd.
Yueyue sat between her brother and Jiang Tang. The little girl was well protected and gradually regained her energy.
She pulled Chaochao to lie on the train window, with the two little heads side by side, looking outside curiously.
Yueyue said excitedly, "Brother, this is what a train looks like. We are taking a train~"
Although Chaochao didn't say anything, her eyes were shining and you could tell she was very happy.
As the two cubs kept looking around, a buzzing sound came from the front of the train, Woo--
Jiang Tang reached out and hugged the two kids who were leaning against the window, pulling them back. "Chao Chao, Yue Yue, be careful, the train is about to leave."
Chaochao and Yueyue looked up at the same time, staring at Jiang Tang blankly, not knowing what would happen next.
When the train starts moving, it first makes a clattering sound and shakes, and people sitting in their seats will shake along with it. Then there is a rumbling sound, the wheels turn, and the train slowly moves forward.
After the initial shaking impact passed, Jiang Tang let go and let Chao Chao and Yue Yue continue playing.
The two cubs looked stunned, as if they hadn't recovered from the initial shaking, but as they looked towards the train window again...
Fly! Fly!
So fast!
The scenery outside the car window kept flying by. As the window rolled back, they gradually left the city and saw large stretches of rice fields and trees. These were scenes that Chaochao and Yueyue had never seen before.
Yueyue poked her finger at the glass window and said, "Brother, look...what a big tree—Brother, look, it's a big river—"
Jiang Tang took out some biscuits and White Rabbit candies from his backpack. He didn't dare put them out in public, so he secretly stuffed them into the mouths of the two children.
Chaochao and Yueyue soon tasted a sweetness on their tongues. It was not just sweet, but also had a very fragrant milk flavor.
Young children usually remember the taste of milk by instinct, so they especially like the taste of White Rabbit Milk Candy. They lick it bit by bit with their little tongues and are reluctant to eat too much.
Speaking of these White Rabbit milk candies, there is a funny story behind them.
The White Rabbit Milk Candy was found in the original owner's room, placed in a tin box, a very big box.
The original owner must have eaten it secretly by himself and was reluctant to give it to the children.
Jiang Tang reached out and slightly lifted Chao Chao and Yue Yue's mouths, which were open in shock, closed their little mouths, then lowered his head and made a hushing gesture.
"Shh—let's eat quietly and don't tell anyone."
Jiang Tang also stuffed a White Rabbit candy into his mouth, so his voice tasted of milk.
When Yueyue heard Jiang Tang's words, she covered her mouth with her little hands and smiled with her eyes curved like crescent moons.
Chao Chao looked at Jiang Tang a few more times, because... he liked his current mother so much.
The train rumbled along for four or five hours. Most of the passengers in the carriage had eaten lunch and were staggering and drowsy when everything that was supposed to happen happened.
A slightly plump woman who looked to be in her forties or fifties sat down opposite Jiang Tang.
This person's dress and facial features were almost exactly the same as the human trafficker Jiang Tang met yesterday. Especially the way she looked at Jiang Tang and the two children, and the shrewdness and calculation in her eyes, it was almost as if the word "human trafficker" was written on her face.
Jiang Tang complained helplessly in her heart, encountering human traffickers for two consecutive days, what kind of unlucky physique does she have? If such a plot is written into a novel, it will definitely be criticized as boring and cliché.
Just as I was thinking about it, the bloated woman spoke with a smile.
"Sister, you're taking care of two children by yourself. It's not easy to be away from home, right? If you need any help, just ask me. I see you're not that old, and you're married so young? You're really lucky, with both a son and a daughter. Are you going out to find your husband this time?"
Jiang Tang listened to these words and was too lazy to pay any attention to them. Saying one more word would be a waste of breath.
But the bloated woman stared at Jiang Tang and the two cubs, drooling in her heart.
A woman like Jiang Tang is obviously a country girl going out for the first time, so she is dirty and wearing old clothes. She looks to be in her early twenties, the age that is easiest to deceive.
Her original target was only Jiang Tang, but the two cubs beside her were too eye-catching, and they were twins, a boy and a girl. If she sold the woman and then the children, she would definitely get a good price.
The bloated woman thought happily, took out two candies from her pocket and handed them to Chaochao and Yueyue.
"What cute kids! Auntie will treat you to some candy."
Jiang Tang looked at this scene and sneered in her heart. Her child ate the best White Rabbit milk candy, so how could he be interested in the inferior candy in her hand?
She was about to refuse when she heard Chao Chao's resounding voice.
"Auntie, first you tried to get close to us, and now you're giving me candy. Are you going to find a job for my mother next?"
The bloated woman was startled, because she was about to say that she had a government job, one that allowed her to eat the food supplied by the city...
Chao Chao sat up straight and counted on his fingers, saying, "One, two, three... Auntie, my mother said that people who meet the one, two, three, three criteria are either human traffickers or bad people. So, are you a bad person? Or a human trafficker?"
The bloated woman had no idea that her tricks of "traveling around in the underworld" were actually seen through by a five-year-old child. Her face turned pale and blue. She put away her two pitiful candies, stuffed them back into her pocket, and glared at Jiang Tang and her son fiercely.
"Hmph! You really don't know how to recognize a kind person! What do you mean by human traffickers? Where did these human traffickers come from in broad daylight? You and your son will suffer!" The bloated woman cursed, then turned around and walked away, apparently to look for her next target.
After the bloated woman left, Jiang Tang reached out and touched Chao Chao's little head, his smile full of appreciation.
She is indeed her son! She is so awesome!
Yueyue found it interesting and actually imitated Jiang Tang's actions, reaching out to touch her brother.
While the mother and her two children were enjoying each other's warmth, a man's low laughter suddenly came from next door.
