Lu Qingyan smiled and said, "He didn't do anything. He's still studying."
“Studying is good, but nobody takes the imperial examinations anymore. A lot of books aren’t of much use; when it comes down to it, you still have to rely on guns.” The woman said, making a gun gesture with her hand, and introduced herself: “My surname is Wang. I’m going to the South City to find my man. He’s from a peasant background, and now he’s doing great things for Commander Rong.”
The woman surnamed Wang spoke of this with great pride, but kept her voice very low, clearly afraid that others might do something detrimental to her if they heard her.
Lu Qingyan nodded and agreed, "It is indeed quite good."
The woman surnamed Wang was indeed satisfied, and even said enthusiastically, "I liked you the moment I saw you. You're just like the fairy Chang'e in the story. Now that we're acquainted, if you encounter any trouble over there, you can come to me."
"Thank you, Sister Wang."
"Why are you being so polite with me?" After boasting, Wang began to complain, "My husband is good in every way, but there's one thing I'm not happy about. After he married me, he made me stay home and serve my mother-in-law. You have no idea how difficult my mother-in-law is to serve. Even if there's nothing wrong, she'll find something to criticize me. Finally, after that old witch passed away, I finally had a chance to go to my husband. That deadbeat was really something. In the first two years, he would at least write me a letter, but after that, he never wrote a single letter, and he never sent anything home."
Lu Qingyan raised an eyebrow. She had thought she had genuinely met a kind and helpful person, but she hadn't expected there to be such a past incident. Although the woman had mentioned that her mother-in-law wasn't very nice, Lu Qingyan's goodwill towards her instantly diminished.
The woman surnamed Wang was very talkative and never stopped talking, so Lu Qingyan just listened quietly without saying a word.
"Not long after we got married, my husband left. I was left alone at home to be tormented by my mother-in-law. At that time, I was pregnant, but unfortunately, I didn't know it was the first time. As a result, I lost the baby. I don't know what sins my poor child committed in his/her past life to have such a grandmother."
The woman surnamed Wang began to cry repeatedly, and Lu Qingyan's lips twitched as she listened.
This is a rather private topic. They were strangers who met on the train, so there was no need for them to talk about these things.
But this woman seemed to have no inhibitions; once she started talking, she poured out everything.
After several hours of torture, my ears finally got some peace and quiet.
The woman closed her eyes and fell asleep, while Lu Qingyan listened to her snoring.
Xiaozhao and Lu Qingyan whispered to each other, looking at the sleeping woman surnamed Wang with complicated expressions: "Miss, what's wrong with this woman..."
She couldn't think of a way to describe this person right now.
Vulgar, clueless, talkative... I guess I can relate to all of those traits. I absolutely must not let Miss have any more contact with people like that in the future.
If I spend too much time with her, and the young lady turns out like that, just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.
Xiaozhao secretly made up her mind.
"It's okay, don't worry about her." Lu Qingyan had already slept for a while and wasn't very sleepy.
However, Xiaozhao said, "If you're sleepy, you should take a nap." Lu Qingyan gave her a wooden earplug: "Put these in your ears and you won't hear these sounds."
