At the crowded train station, Chen Xiangnan followed Old Lady Xia to buy tickets and struggled to squeeze onto the train.
This was the first time in his life that he had taken a train. The last time he came to the train station was to send his sister to the countryside.
After Chen Xiangnan put his things down, he looked around and touched things, feeling curious. So this is what it felt like to take a train. It was really tiring.
On the other hand, Old Lady Xia was completely relaxed. She was very lucky to have brought the second son with her, otherwise, she, an old lady, would have been overwhelmed by the extra food.
As the train slowly started moving, they were getting farther and farther away from City C.
Chen Xianghong went to the Lijia Village Brigade, which was not far from City C, but it still took a day and a night by train.
Chen Xiangnan couldn't stand the morning train anymore because his butt hurt. If he had known this was such a hard job, he would never have come.
He regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself a few times for talking too fast.
Old Lady Xia went to the restroom, and he watched over the luggage. There were so many people on the train, from all over the world, and if their belongings were stolen, they would have no place to cry.
"Ah——" A scream made the originally noisy carriage quiet down. Old Mrs. Xia had just returned from the toilet and was startled.
The one who screamed was the girl walking in front of her. Her face was red with shame and she was grabbing the sharp-nosed and monkey-faced man angrily, "You touched me!"
The man slapped her hand away and said, "Nonsense, I'm standing here perfectly fine, why do you say it was me?"
The girl said angrily: "It's you, you just followed me, all the way from the bathroom to here, it must be you."
An enthusiastic passenger who saw it also helped the girl and said: "I saw it too, it was you, you kept staring at the girl's butt and then touched her."
The man still refused to admit it after being exposed. What a joke! If he really admitted it, what if he was arrested for hooliganism?
"Anyway, it's not me. Who knows if the ones you guys are helping her are in cahoots with her?"
Old Mrs. Xia came out of the toilet and hadn't even dried her hands yet, so she had something interesting to watch.
Even though Chen Xiangnan couldn't stand it anymore, she was almost going crazy. It was really hard to bear on this train. She and Lao Er had been looking at each other for a whole day. She was already annoyed just by seeing his face.
Seeing that there were people watching the fun, Old Lady Xia immediately squeezed in. She was watching with great interest. She had been sitting on the train for a whole day and was very tired, but with something fun to watch, Old Lady Xia felt that she could do it again.
She pushed here, squeezed there, and asked the people around her what happened before she figured out the whole thing.
The man saw more and more people gathered around him, and he felt annoyed. "What are you looking at? What does it have to do with you? Are you in cahoots with her and trying to extort money from me?"
"I said I didn't touch her, and she's blaming me for it without any evidence. How shameless!"
When he said that, the little girl blushed immediately, because it was clearly him who touched her.
The man glanced at the jumping old lady Xia and said, "What are you doing, old lady? Are you trying to extort money from me? Are you in cahoots with her? It's because of scum like you that there are so many unjust cases in society. Anyway, I didn't touch her. Maybe it was you, it was you, or it was you."
The man finally pointed at Old Lady Xia.
Because Old Lady Xia's expression was so excited, it made the men furious. They actually came to laugh at him. Did they think he was easy to bully? Most of the onlookers were men. There were also women among those crowded in the front, but they all looked very strong.
He observed for a long time and felt that Old Lady Xia was the thinnest and looked the easiest to bully.
He grabbed Old Lady Xia, dragged her in, pointed at her and started scolding her.
Old Mrs. Xia was just there to watch the fun, but she was inexplicably scolded and dragged in, and the man seemed ready to hit her.
Her mind was still confused, but her hands were faster than her brain. When the man threw a punch, she slapped him in the face. The small sound shocked the other onlookers.
Old Mrs. Xia was also a little scared, but since she had already fought, she couldn't possibly be in the right.
She put her hands on her hips and said, "Comrade, you're so unreasonable. I wasn't even talking to you, so why did you hit me? You said she accused you of touching her without any evidence, so now you have evidence to accuse me of trying to blackmail you?"
She pulled the girl who was being groped behind her and said angrily, acting like a protector, "Look at your appearance, you're obviously not a good person. Everyone saw you make a mistake, but you still refuse to admit it. What? You think we women are easy to bully?"
She was spitting, cursing and presenting facts, leaving the man unable to get a word in and wanting to hit him.
Old Mrs. Xia has been very confident in herself recently. She doesn't take a thin man seriously. She was just watching the fun but was forced to participate. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She rushed up and started fighting with the man.
There are still many good people these days. Immediately, some enthusiastic people came to intervene and controlled the man to prevent him from bullying an old lady.
Old Mrs. Xia was not injured, but the man's face was scratched by her nails and he bled a little.
The man stared at Old Lady Xia viciously.
Old Mrs. Xia was also a little scared. Would she be retaliated against?
But the girl behind her grabbed her, as if she had found a backer, with tears in her eyes. She really met a good person. She didn't expect that an old lady could stand up for her.
Since she was being relied upon like this, Old Lady Xia had no choice but to stand up for herself, since she was in the right anyway.
She cursed again, and the man was so angry that he wanted to rush over and hit her.
"The conductor is here, everyone make way."
A man in uniform walked out of the crowd. After understanding the situation, he frowned and took the man, the girl, Old Lady Xia and the passengers who witnessed the man's hooliganism to their lounge for questioning.
