There were many people waiting for the train at the train station. Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhou Ziwen took the two sisters and Zhou Chaoyang to the entrance to wait in line.
Chen Qiaoyi was pregnant, and Zhou Ziwen carried two packages and held her tightly behind him, fearing that she would be squeezed.
Chen Shiying and Shen Zhaodi also followed Zhou Ziwen closely, while Zhou Chaoyang was covering the rear.
As time went by, the train they were going to take finally arrived.
The station attendant used an iron horn to maintain order and let them get on the train one by one.
"Let's go, our train is here." Zhou Ziwen said, leading the way towards the ticket gate.
They made their way through the crowd, checked their tickets and entered the station, then found their carriages and seats along the platform.
After putting their luggage away, Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters sat down, while Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi sat opposite them.
The train started slowly, making a rumbling sound, gradually accelerated, and left the platform.
Zhou Ziwen looked at the scenery outside the window and felt a little emotional.
After being away from home for so long, I’m finally going back.
"We are really setting off." Chen Shiying said softly, her eyes fixed on the window.
Chen Qiaoyi held Zhou Ziwen's hand tightly, her eyes flashing with anticipation and nervousness: "Brother Ziwen, we will be able to see our parents soon."
Zhou Ziwen patted her hand gently: "Yes, we will be able to see them soon."
Thinking that his parents and brothers and sisters had not met Yi Yi yet, he became a little excited.
I also have nephews and nieces who were born not long ago. I wonder if they have learned to walk yet.
The train sped along the rails, carrying them across fields and over hills, heading towards their distant hometown. Zhou Ziwen and the others' hearts also flew farther and farther with the roar of the train.
…
Inside the train carriages, people began to settle down, and some passengers began to take out their own food and drinks to enjoy during the journey.
Zhou Ziwen and his friends also took out some food from their luggage to pass the time during the journey.
If you have saliva on the train, you can go and spit it out yourself.
"Let's eat something first! We have nothing to do anyway."
Zhou Ziwen laid out melon seeds, peanuts, dried fruits and the like.
It takes quite a while to get from Ping'an County to Bing City, and it won't be there in a short time.
"Thank you, Brother Ziwen." Chen Zhaodi grabbed a handful of melon seeds and chatted with everyone while eating them.
Everyone had just gotten on the bus and was still quite energetic. They gathered together to chat and laugh, so it wasn't boring.
Zhou Ziwen observed the other passengers in the carriage. Everyone was similar to them. Some were talking with friends, some were resting with their eyes closed, and some were looking at the scenery outside the window.
Zhou Ziwen also found several educated youth, who should have returned to the city to visit their relatives.
"Brother Ziwen, what are your plans for our return home this time?" Chen Qiaoyi asked.
Zhou Ziwen shook his head. "I don't have any plans. I just want to spend some time with my family and let them see you and my sister."
"I want to go home too." Chen Qiaoyi hugged Zhou Ziwen's arm, missing her mother at home.
"Well, let's go to our house first, and then to yours." Zhou Ziwen patted her shoulder.
"Brother Ziwen, you are so nice." Chen Qiaoyi leaned her head on Zhou Ziwen's arms and said with emotion.
"Haha, you are my wife, if I don't treat you well, who will treat you well?"
Zhou Ziwen took the opportunity to hold her in his arms.
As the train continued to move forward, the atmosphere in the carriage gradually became lively.
Some passengers began to talk to each other, sharing their stories and experiences.
Zhou Ziwen has good hearing and sometimes listens to them talk out of curiosity.
Although they are all about family matters, listening to other people's life experiences will also give him more insights.
As time went by, the train passed through one station after another, and the atmosphere in the carriage kept changing with the passengers getting on and off.
Zhou Ziwen and his friends observed the ever-changing scenery outside the window and felt the charm of the journey.
"Brother Ziwen, look at the mountains over there, they are so beautiful!" Chen Qiaoyi said excitedly, pointing to the mountains in the distance outside the window.
Zhou Ziwen looked in the direction she pointed and saw the rolling mountains, which looked particularly magnificent under the setting sun. "Yes, it's really beautiful. This time on our way home, we can also enjoy the scenery along the way."
As night fell, the lights in the carriage came on.
Zhou Ziwen and his companions began to prepare for their night's rest. As the train would travel all night, they needed to find a comfortable position in their seats so that they could rest well.
They bought hard seats and couldn't sleep lying down. If they were tired, they could only sleep while sitting on the chairs.
Despite the difficult conditions, their hearts are filled with warmth and anticipation when they think that they will be returning home soon.
The train traveled through the night and the carriage gradually became quiet.
Zhou Ziwen and the others also slowly fell asleep in the rocking of the train.
However, he is very alert and will wake up instantly if a stranger approaches.
I'm not afraid of thieves or anything like that.
But he forgot that because they were too confident, they seemed to be defenseless, which made some people with ulterior motives feel that their opportunity had come.
In the train carriage late at night, most of the passengers have fallen asleep. The occasional snoring and the roar of the train wheels and tracks intertwine to form a unique journey melody.
Although Zhou Ziwen closed his eyes, his consciousness remained clear and he was always paying attention to the movements around him.
At this moment, some subtle strange noises appeared in the carriage. Zhou Ziwen's ears moved slightly, and he felt that someone was quietly approaching their position.
He did not open his eyes immediately, but continued to pretend to be asleep, while quietly adjusting his body posture and preparing to respond.
Several figures moved back and forth in the dim carriage, their eyes scanning the seats, looking for possible targets.
When they arrived at Zhou Ziwen's location, one of them stopped, observed for a while, and then winked at his accomplice.
They began to approach cautiously, preparing to rummage through Zhou Ziwen and his companions' luggage, looking for valuables.
However, just as they reached out their hands, Zhou Ziwen suddenly opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
His movements were swift and decisive, as he grabbed the nearest hand and twisted it hard, earning a muffled cry of pain.
At the same time, Zhou Ziwen moved as fast as lightning. He jumped up very quickly and knocked them to the ground in just a few moves. They couldn't get up for a long time.
"Someone come, catch the thief."
Following Shen Zhaodi's scream, the entire carriage instantly became lively.
"Thief, where is the thief?"
"Oh no, my things were stolen."
“My things were stolen too.”
"Damn thieves, beat them to death."
…
There was a commotion in the carriage, and everyone saw several thieves knocked to the ground by Zhou Ziwen.
People of this generation are very united.
When they saw these thieves, they immediately surrounded them and beat them up with punches and kicks.
Especially those who lost things were beaten the hardest, wishing they could beat all these damn thieves to death.
Fortunately, at this time, the noise here finally alarmed the train staff.
"Stop, stop, get out of the way, don't beat anyone to death."
With the arrival of the train crew, the commotion finally subsided. (End of this chapter)
