Chapter 184 All Good Things Must Come to an End



"Okay, I'll put your stuff here. Don't forget to take it when you get off the bus. Also, don't sleep at the same time, or one of you will be awake to watch over the luggage."

"Don't talk to strangers, don't eat food given by strangers, and don't follow strangers after getting off the bus. Remember?"

Uncle Li put the luggage away and patted it a few times, shaking it to see if there was anything unstable. After he was satisfied, he gave some instructions to Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan.

I do have some concerns about the children, but they are already in their twenties and are adults. Not to mention Xu Haonan, he has hardly been out since he was a child.

But Shen Zhizhu is different. In her previous life, she often traveled alone, no matter what means of transportation she took, it was already a common occurrence.

But Uncle Li didn't know that these reminders were also a manifestation of his concern for them. As a younger generation, he just listened.

She had never been on a long journey like this before, and the experience of having her elders admonish her was not bad.

"I know, Uncle Li. We will not run around. When we get there, we will write to you and Auntie to let them know we are safe."

It was Xu Haonan’s first time to take a train, and he couldn’t keep his promise by making big words, but he really wanted to protect Shen Zhizhu.

"I will definitely protect Ah Zhu, Uncle Li, don't worry."

Uncle Li knew Xu Haonan's abilities and Shen Zhizhu's intelligence, so he would definitely be much more excited than these old guys.

"Don't blame me for being nagging. It's because you're going so far away that your aunt and I are so worried. Last night, your aunt didn't sleep well. What I just said was what she told me to do. I said let her come and see you off, but she was afraid that she would cry and make you sad."

As the saying goes, a mother worries about her son even when he is thousands of miles away. Although Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan are not their biological children, in their hearts, they are actually no different from their own.

Shen Zhizhu was reluctant to let go of Aunt Li, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"Uncle, go back and comfort my aunt for me. Buy some cakes in the city and bring them back. My aunt loves them. Eating her favorite food will make her feel better."

Shen Zhizhu took out twenty yuan from his pocket. You know, Uncle Li’s monthly salary is only thirty yuan. It can be seen that Shen Zhizhu is generous.

She stuffed the money into Uncle Li's hand, but how could Uncle Li accept it? He returned the money and was very angry.

"What are you doing? It's fine that your aunt and I didn't give you much money when you went out, but why would you spend your money to buy some food? Put it away quickly, or I'll be mad."

Shen Zhizhu really likes to spend money on the people she cares about, and deep down, she still hopes that Uncle Li can accept it.

Xu Haonan, who knew Shen Zhizhu well, spoke up to smooth things over.

"Uncle Li, you treat us like your own children and take care of us in every detail. We also really treat you and Auntie as our elders and your family as our family. Now we spend money to buy things for your family. Shouldn't it be our duty? Don't refuse it, otherwise Ah Zhu will be sad."

While speaking, he gave Shen Zhizhu a look. Shen Zhizhu understood what he meant and lowered his head, looking sad.

Seeing Shen Zhizhu like this, Uncle Li immediately compromised on everything.

"Okay, okay, just five bucks is enough. I don't want more."

"Okay!"

Shen Zhizhu quickly took out five yuan from his pocket, raised his head and smiled, without a trace of sadness on his face.

What else doesn't Uncle Li understand?

"You guys, you need money everywhere when you go out, but you give it back to us. You are really good kids."

"The train will leave in five minutes. Anyone who is here to see us off, please leave as soon as possible!"

From outside the train came the conductor's voice: After sending you thousands of miles away, we must eventually say goodbye.

"Uncle, please go back soon. We must be careful on the road. When we get there, we will write back. Don't worry about us."

How could Uncle Li not be worried? He felt uneasy in his heart, but he didn't want to create a sad atmosphere.

There were not only them in the car, but also other people who were taking every moment to say goodbye and express their reluctance to leave.

"Okay, I'll get off then. Be safe on the road and have a safe trip."

"Hey, uncle, please be careful on your way back. I heard the temperature is going to drop in the next two days, so you guys should keep warm. If you need anything, just use whatever you have at home. Don't be polite. Don't let Auntie do needlework all night long. Let Erdan study hard..."

Shen Zhizhu originally thought that he would be very carefree, but he couldn't help but give advice to Uncle Li instead. Unknowingly, the relationship between them had become so deep.

Uncle Li nodded and left without looking back.

Soon, the train started moving, getting farther and farther away from home, and the figures of the group of people on the platform gradually disappeared from view.

Shen Zhizhu then turned her attention back to the train. She hadn't taken a green-skinned train for many years. Her motherland was developing rapidly, and the means of transportation were being updated and improved.

"I really miss you."

"Um?"

Xu Haonan didn't hear clearly, he thought he had heard it wrong. Isn't this the first time for everyone to take a train? Are you nostalgic?

Are you missing something else?

Shen Zhizhu then realized that she had said it without realizing it, and she burst into laughter.

"Nothing, I'm sorry, husband, let's eat something, otherwise it will be hard to endure the journey."

After all, there aren’t that many electronic products these days, and we can’t just rely on those things to kill time.

In this case, the only ways to kill time are eating, sleeping, chatting and reading, and these conditions are fully reflected in this carriage.

Xu Haonan thought she was hungry, so he took out some fruits and meatballs from his backpack. In an instant, the fragrance filled the train.

But no one noticed this because there were many other smells in the carriage. The green train was not fast and the windows could be opened.

Therefore, there was no bad smell in the carriage. Although the wind blew in from the window, it was a bit cold, but everyone was wearing warm clothes and chatting enthusiastically, so they didn't feel cold.

Shen Zhizhu took them one by one, changed into a comfortable sitting position, and started eating.

"Thank you, husband."

The person sitting opposite them was introducing himself to someone else, but after smelling the scent, he turned around and started talking to them.

"Eh? You are a couple, and you go to school together? That's rare. The one who came to see you off just now was your uncle, but where are your parents? Why didn't your parents come to see you off?"

Shen Zhizhu smiled slightly.

"My parents died early."
