As the night darkened, the noisy carriage gradually quieted down. It was dinner time and the announcement sounded, asking passengers who needed to eat to go to the dining car in carriage No. 9 in the middle of the train.
Su Aimin and his daughter traveled light and did not bring any dry food, so they planned to go to the dining car to eat something.
Qi Chu thought about it. If the father and daughter left, he would be left alone in the carriage with the woman on the upper bunk. He felt a little uncomfortable and said quickly, "I'm a little hungry too. Why don't we go together?"
"Okay." Su Aimin said with a smile.
After the three of them left the compartment, the woman who was lying quietly on the upper bunk and seemed to be sleeping suddenly sat up.
Su Aimin and the other two walked to the dining car chatting and laughing, and looked at the dishes. Today's dinner included four dishes and one soup, including shredded pork with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, shredded sweet and sour potatoes, four-happiness meatballs, and a vegetable soup. It looked good.
To buy food, you need to buy a meal ticket before you can get the food. A meal ticket costs one dollar, which is not cheap.
In addition to these, there are also boxed lunches in aluminum boxes. A meal consists of two-thirds of rice, a few slices of red sausage, and a handful of shredded potatoes. The price is relatively cheap, only 40 cents. The attendants are loading them onto the carts, preparing to push them from carriage to carriage for sale.
Cheaper boxed lunches are the choice of most people, but Su Aimin didn't even look at the boxed lunches. He directly dragged Su Qingyun to buy meal tickets. Since they were out, they had to eat something good. He had enough money.
"Three meal tickets?" asked the flight attendant.
The three nodded. Su Aimin touched his bag and his face changed. "Oh no!"
"What's wrong, Dad?"
"The money is still on the bunk." Su Aimin slapped his head. What kind of memory is this!
"Yunyun, wait a moment, Dad will go back and get it."
Qi Chu hurriedly said, "Brother Su, how about I treat you to a meal? Don't bother." As he spoke, he took out his wallet. He had a good impression of the father and daughter, and he was happy to treat them to a meal.
"How can this be possible? I'll go back and get it and be back soon. You guys sit down and wait for me." Su Aimin said and walked back.
Su Qingyun frowned, thinking of the woman left in the compartment, she was a little worried, "Uncle Qi, I'll go back and take a look, you can have your meal first."
"Don't worry, I'll go with you." Qi Chu obviously thought of something.
The two of them quickly walked back to their own carriage. Before they arrived, Su Qingyun heard her father's voice.
"I'll say it again! Give me the money!" Su Aimin shouted angrily, "Don't think I won't do anything just because you're a woman."
Su Qingyun's expression changed, and he stepped forward quickly, "Dad, what's going on?"
In the compartment, the woman on the upper bunk came down. She was holding a bulging bag tightly in her hand and looked at the three people warily.
Su Aimin's face looked very grim at the moment. He pointed at the woman and gritted his teeth, "As soon as I came back, I saw her sneakily stuffing money into her bag. When I looked again, the money I put under the pillow was gone. The money she stuffed into her bag must be mine! She's a thief!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Stop slandering me!" The woman glared at Su Aimin and immediately shot back, "You just look at me because I'm a woman. I have so much money, but you have evil intentions, and you still dare to slander me! Shame on you!"
She shouted so loudly that it could be heard in both carriages on the left and right. Soon, people gathered around to watch the fun.
"What are you doing?"
"The man accused the woman of stealing money, but she denied it and said he was wrongly accusing her."
"No way, this woman looks so well dressed, there's no need for her to steal money, right?"
"That's true. But this man, big and strong, doesn't look like a good person."
Hearing the chatter, the woman straightened her back, feeling more confident. She raised her chin and said, "Everyone, please judge for yourself. This guy was in the bunk across from me. When I got on the bus, he asked his daughter to switch beds with me. He agreed, but just now he saw me stuffing money into my bag and insisted that I stole it from him. What a joke! Look at how we're dressed. Would I steal his money?"
Everyone looked at her, then at Su Aimin, "Yes, this woman is dressed much better than him, how could she possibly steal his money?"
"Could it be that he himself has the evil intention?"
Qi Chu frowned when he heard this. Based on the contact just now, he didn't believe that Brother Su was that kind of person.
"Shut up!" Su Qingyun listened for a long while with a cold face, and suddenly shouted angrily, "You are helping her like this, are you guys in the same group?"
Her words made everyone feel embarrassed and dared not speak any more.
Su Qingyun looked at her father, "Dad, how much money do you have in your bag?"
"The total is one thousand three hundred and fifty-eight yuan and forty cents." Su Aimin blurted out without thinking. Su Qingyun was right. Su Aimin brought all his assets this time. He counted them several times before getting on the car, so he was definitely not wrong.
"Oh my goodness, it's over a thousand!"
"You're so brave to carry such a large sum of money around with you."
Many people gasped. So much money? No wonder someone would be tempted to steal it.
The woman said calmly, "I do have over a thousand yuan in this bag, but that's all my money. You must know the approximate amount when you saw it just now, but it's not over 1,300 yuan. I have a full 1,400 yuan in this bag."
Su Qingyun curled the corners of his lips and sneered, "Fourteen hundred? I'm afraid only those few dozen are hers."
She stared at the smug woman and asked again, "Are you sure all the money here is yours?"
"Of course." The woman said without hesitation. She looked at Su Qingyun and said sarcastically, "Little girl, you're so young and you're still following your father out to cheat and deceive people. Why don't you learn some good things?"
