Shen Zhile was carrying luggage in both hands, and one of the suitcases belonged to Fubao, which he took over.
Without bothering to wipe the sweat off his forehead, he turned to the old couple and said, "Grandma and Grandma, there are too many people here. My eldest brother said there are all kinds of people on the train. I heard that most of them are human traffickers and thieves. You and Fubao have to be careful."
"Yes, there are too many people. Are they all traveling?" It was the first time for Mrs. Shen to see so many people. She was a little nervous. She wiped the sweat off her forehead, then took out a palm-leaf fan and fanned herself and Fubao.
"Grandma, let me fan you and grandpa." Fubao took the fan from her hand and fanned the old couple.
"Nannan is so filial, she's really your good granddaughter." Old Mrs. Shen was so happy and relieved that she felt like Fubao's fanning of the wind seemed to dispel all the stuffiness.
Old man Shen was also very pleased. Look, the girl only knew how to fan her grandparents, while the third and fourth children, the two naughty boys, just stood there.
Shen Zhiyi and Shen Zhile expressed their injustice, as they were the ones who had been carrying the luggage the entire way and had no free time at all.
"Old man, is this train... okay?" Old Mrs. Shen asked with some concern. She had never taken a train before, so she was a little nervous. She was afraid that she would meet bad people like Shen Zhile said.
"It's okay. There are train attendants and police on the train. Don't worry, we will have a safe journey." Old man Shen comforted.
Seeing that Old Lady Shen still had a worried look on her face, he smiled and said, "Old lady, don't worry about it. There are so many of us, what can go wrong? Besides, look at how we are dressed, we look like working people. Even if a bad guy sees us, he will think we are poor peasants. What are you afraid of?"
Old man Shen is already old and a seasoned man. Even though he has not received much education, he knows very well that one should not show off his wealth in public.
So before going out, he deliberately asked the whole family to change into the worst clothes. However, most of the clothes in the house were newly bought, and it was not easy to find a worn-out piece of clothing. He had to search the bottom of the box for a long time before finding it.
Looking at the worn-out clothes that they had found with great difficulty, and thinking back to their previous lives, the old couple felt a surge of emotion.
At this moment, the whole family, including Long Xiao, were wearing tattered homespun clothes with patches on them. But the whole family looked good, and Fubao had fair and radiant skin, looking like a little girl from the city, so much so that Old Man Shen carefully smeared some stove ash on everyone's face, and he was not completely relieved until the whole family was covered in dirt.
I guess thieves would lose interest when they see them like this.
"Look at what you said. Going out is like an adventure. It makes me even more nervous." Old Mrs. Shen patted her chest.
Fubao took her arm and said sweetly, "Grandma, don't worry. It seems that our tickets are for sitting together, so we will be fine. Also, maybe after this trip, you will like traveling."
Fubao's words were always the most useful, and Mrs. Shen felt much more relaxed all of a sudden. At this time, the train came into the station, whirring over.
The crowd immediately rushed towards the train. The old couple, the third and fourth sons, and Long Xiao all subconsciously protected Fubao when getting on the train. They gathered around her to prevent her from being bumped into, as if she was a porcelain doll that would break if touched.
The family was squeezed here and there for a long time, and finally squeezed into the car.
