Seeing Yun Mo walking towards them, a police officer shouted at her to step back.

Yun Mo smiled and said, "Comrade Public Security, the snake is fake and this man is a thief. You should arrest him."

Hearing her words, several police officers looked at each other.

Yun Mo showed the large cut on her bag caused by a blade and said, "This is my toy snake. I originally put it in my bag, but now my wallet is missing."

Now, what else did everyone not understand? Everyone looked at the man in the gray jacket with contempt and anger.

It turns out this guy is a thief!

The man in the gray jacket saw that something was wrong and stood up and tried to run, but the police were not a pushover and kicked him to the ground.

Another police officer picked up the toy snake on the ground, looked at it carefully, and then walked up to Yun Mo.

"Is this your toy snake?"

As soon as Yun Mo nodded, the police officer immediately said, "Okay, come with us."

Could she say no? Fortunately, knowing that she had to catch a train, the police did not make things difficult for her. They simply took her statement and let her go.

As for the man in the gray jacket, several wallets were found on him. With both witnesses and evidence, he could not escape the charge of theft.

Ling Chuan didn't know that Yun Mo had a portable space, and thought her wallet was really stolen, and his face was full of anxiety.

"Wife, I'm going to see if there are any tickets left."

Yun Mo grabbed the man and took out a train ticket from her empty bag like a magic trick.

"Here, my ticket is."

Ling Chuan was both delighted and confused, "Wife, wasn't your wallet stolen?"

"No one in this world has ever been able to steal my wallet."

Ling Chuan asked about the toy snake again. He knew very well and was very sure that there was no toy snake in his wife's bag when she went out.

Seeing the man's strange expression, Yun Mo suddenly realized something, "Lingchuan, are you afraid of snakes?"

Ling Chuan pursed his lips, showing a rare embarrassment on his face, "Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm scared, but I know it's fake, so I don't feel anything."

As she spoke, Yun Mo looked at the man and laughed secretly, "I thought you were fearless, but it turns out you are afraid of something too."

Ling Chuan explained in a low voice: "When I was a child, a snake crawled onto my pillow at night. I was so scared that I had nightmares for several days."

Just imagining the painting, Yun Mo couldn't help but shiver.

She held the man's arm in a comforting manner, "It's okay, snakes usually don't bite people on their own. As long as you don't touch or hit them, they will leave on their own. Besides, snakes are known as earth dragons in folklore, and having snakes at home indicates auspiciousness and blessings, so having snakes at home is not a bad thing."

Ling Chuan was skeptical, "Then why did our Ling family still fail?"

"When God bestows a great mission upon a man, he must first make his mind suffer, his muscles and bones toil, and his body hungry. The sufferings you endured in the first half of your life are all blessings accumulated for the second half. Look, aren't your and your brother's lives starting to get better now?"

"Wife, my brother and I have a good life thanks to you. My greatest blessing is to marry a wife as good as you."

Yun Mo was not modest either, "It's good that you know it. Please be nice to me in the future."

"Yes, I will!"

—

With the sound of the rails vibrating "crazy, crazy", the train slowly pulled out of the platform.

The hard sleeper bed is divided into upper, middle and lower berths. Yun Mo sleeps on the lower berth, Ling Chuan sleeps on the upper berth, and the middle berth slept on a young girl in her 20s.

The shop opposite was occupied by a family of three, a young couple in their twenties with a son who was about 7 or 8 years old.

Boys of this age are just like dogs and cats who hate each other. He was yelling loudly and kicking the edge of Yun Mo's bed with his shoes.

Yun Mo had no choice but to say it was okay. After all, the train was a public transportation tool, not her own car.

After being scolded, the little boy did not behave himself for half an hour and started to make trouble again, running around in the carriage and playing with other children in the carriage.

Screams, crying, and laughter came one after another, making Yun Mo's ears hurt and she couldn't continue reading.

She closed the book in her hand and looked up to see the scenery outside the window, when suddenly a voice came from above her head.

"Hi, are you a senior in high school?"

Yun Mo looked up and found that it was the girl sleeping in the middle bunk.

"Um."

Perhaps because she was extremely bored, the girl enthusiastically pulled her over to chat.

From the chat, I learned that the girl's name is Zhao Yazhi, she is from Anshi, and she is studying at a university in the provincial capital here. She is 20 years old this year.

Zhao Yazhi was lying on the middle bunk, so Yun Mo had to look up to talk to him, and her neck became sore after a while.

"Sister Zhao, do you want to come down and sit for a while?"

"Is it convenient?"

Zhao Yazhi's gaze fell on Ling Chuan.

Before Yun Mo could say anything, Ling Chuan stood up and sat on the folding stool in the corridor, giving up his seat.

Zhao Yazhi happily got down from the spread, holding some snacks and fruits in her hands.

Yun Mo also took out the snacks she had brought, placed them on the small table, and ate while chatting with the other party.

"You guys in high school have winter break so early? Aren't you going to take make-up classes?"

"Not yet. I asked for leave and went back to my hometown early."

"No wonder."

Zhao Yazhi ate a piece of original snowflake crisp and praised it immediately, "This is delicious, is it nougat? It feels more fragrant and softer than nougat, and not too greasy."

"This is called Snowflake Crisp, a new dessert launched by Ronghua."

"No wonder I haven't eaten it before, it turns out it's a new product. When I get back I'll go to the department store to see if they sell it."

"We may have to wait until after the Chinese New Year, because it is a new product and has not yet been mass-produced. Before the New Year, only Anshi and the provincial capital will have a small number of them on the market."

"Is that so..." Zhao Yazhi looked at Yun Mo with some curiosity, "You're eating snacks that haven't even been released yet. Are you a relative of Ronghua?"

"My classmate's father is a senior executive at Ronghua, and she gave me these snacks."

"I see. I am taking advantage of you today. You can try my snacks. The chocolate is pretty good. There is also jelly. Have you ever tried jelly?"

In this era, jelly is still an imported high-end snack, and there is no official jelly brand in China.

From this, we can see that Zhao Yazhi has a good family background and can easily take out imported snacks to treat a stranger like her.

Yun Mo pretended to be curious, "I haven't eaten it, it looks pretty."

Zhao Yazhi took a piece of jelly and taught her how to eat it step by step.

Seeing the young couple opposite looking at her curiously, Zhao Yazhi also took three jellies and handed them to them.

The woman took the food and thanked him repeatedly, but she was reluctant to eat it. Instead, she put it in her backpack, apparently wanting to leave it for her child.
