In the dark carriage, Qiao Yuru secretly put three steamed buns, two eggs, and a handful of White Rabbit candies in her cloth backpack.
Su Huaiyuan discovered it when his wife opened her eyes. He, his son and his wife had discussed it before leaving. The three of them would take turns to be on duty at night.
Su Huaiyuan was on duty before midnight, Qiao Ruru was on duty from midnight to 15:00, and the eldest son Su Ze was on duty from 15:00 to 8:00 in the morning.
If there were only four adults, they wouldn't have to keep watch, but they had two more children. It's better to be safe than sorry. Dabao and Xiaobao are so good-looking that they are most likely to become the target of human traffickers, so they can't take any chances.
Qiao Ru first handed the backpack to Su Huaiyuan, indicating that he was going to the toilet.
Su Huaiyuan nodded to his wife tacitly, counting in his mind, and at the same time he was fully alert.
While carefully observing his surroundings, he quietly reached into the cloth back to tear off a piece of the steamed bun, then stuffed it into his mouth while turning his head to look toward the window.
Qiao Xiaoru went to the toilet in the carriage. As soon as she closed the toilet door, she slipped into the space.
The first thing she did after entering the space was to rush to the courtyard's kitchen and fill a large bowl of millet porridge. She drank it while reaching for the dozens of meatballs she had bought at the state-owned restaurant.
After eating a big bowl of millet porridge and a meat dumpling, Qiao Ru suddenly felt much more relaxed.
After eating two more eggs and a meat dumpling, Qiao Ru decided not to eat any more. She went to the toilet in the courtyard and then left.
When she returned to her seat, Su Huaiyuan only secretly ate half a steamed bun, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her come back.
Afterwards, under her protection, he quickly finished the two steamed buns and two eggs, but he did not take the White Rabbit milk candy.
The second person to be woken up was Su Ze. He and Zhou Wanwan were arranged to sit by the window with Dabao and Xiaobao in their arms. Qiao Jiru and Su Huaiyuan sat outside to block others.
Su Ze felt something soft stuffed in his hand, and he immediately knew it was a steamed bun made of white flour by the feel. He immediately understood what was going on, so he took advantage of Dabao's small body to quickly finish the steamed buns and eggs.
Fortunately, the eggshells had been peeled in advance, otherwise peeling the eggs would have been a very difficult and troublesome task.
After Su Ze secretly finished his meal, he handed Dabao to his father beside him because he had to go to the toilet.
Finally, it was Zhou Wanwan's turn to cheat. Zhou Wanwan had just finished eating two steamed buns made of white flour. Now she was eating eggs and she finally believed that her parents-in-law had really made a lot of arrangements and preparations for their transfer to the countryside. Otherwise, how could she have eggs and steamed buns to eat now? !
After the adults had finished their meals, the two children were picked up to go to the toilet. When they returned to the carriage, Qiao Jiru put the kettle she had prepared in the space into Xiaobao's mouth.
Xiaobao was fed the food while he was half asleep and half awake. He felt something was wrong after the first sip. He opened his eyes drowsily and glanced at his mother and grandmother, then subconsciously began to drink in big gulps with his little mouth.
Milk is delicious, fragrant and sweet milk.
Dabao was just like Xiaobao. He was half awake and half asleep when he was fed, but he still remembered to drink milk and drank up the pot of milk that Qiao Jiru had prepared.
A night passed without any accidents.
In the morning, Qiao Ruru and her family still ate sweet potatoes, but this time each of them had a biscuit instead of the White Rabbit candy she secretly gave to her family.
Fortunately, they were about to get off at their stop before noon. Before reaching their destination, Qiao Ruru asked her husband, eldest son and daughter-in-law to take a pill to strengthen their bodies. Because after getting off the train, people from the Tong County Cutting Committee will be waiting for them at the train station, and they don't know how these people will treat the Su family.
Sure enough, as soon as the train stopped and Qiao Ru and the others were still picking up their luggage and preparing to get off the train, a man wearing a red armband came straight towards their carriage.
