Chapter 60 These clothes will soon be unwearable

The young police officer was now in pain all over his body. This spy was really good at fighting. However, he still had a conscience and did not shoot on the train, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Without the little girl's help, they really didn't know whether the final victory would belong to them. Naturally, they couldn't let the little girl get into trouble at this time.
"Yueyue, please wait a moment. Someone has already gone to look for your parents."
Tang Yue sighed and didn't move. She had to appreciate the police's kindness.
Standing there, Tang Yue felt a burning gaze directed at her. She looked over and saw Gu Yanxi staring at her intently. She returned his gaze calmly, and finally, the man curled his lips slightly at her before turning away.
Tang Yue tilted her head. What was wrong with this guy? Wouldn't a normal person hate her? But there wasn't even a hint of resentment in his eyes. Sigh, the world is so big, there are all kinds of people.
After a while, Tang Shengkai and Lin Cuicui squeezed out of the crowd. Seeing Tang Yue standing there unharmed, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
The two police officers thanked the two men and verified the address with them before letting Tang Shengkai take Tang Yue away.
Before leaving, the two police officers kept thanking Tang Yue. Tang Yue was carried away by Tang Shengkai. She looked at Gu Yanxi, but he didn't react at all, as if it had nothing to do with him.
It is not known how the police handled this matter. After Tang Yue returned to her compartment, she was closely watched by Tang Shengkai and Lin Cuicui.
They were really scared. This child had no sense of danger at all and would just run away wherever there was danger. They were determined not to let her run away again.
Tang Yue spent the next two days reading. When she felt bored, she would practice. She discovered her own shortcomings. Without weapons, some things were difficult to do.
Her consciousness could be projected far away, but it was only enough to monitor the situation and not to act immediately when she saw danger. It would be great if she had a weapon that could move freely according to her will.
Tang Yue kept thinking about a question in her mind: what kind of weapon could she carry with her at any time and at any place, and could act according to her will? She used to have a storage bag and a storage bracelet, but now she has nothing.
She had to find a way to get a weapon that she could carry with her.
They were always on the road and had only stayed in a simple guesthouse once. The clothes they were wearing had been worn for several days, they had no conditions to take a shower, and they were squeezed in crowds every day. They even felt that they had a strong smell on their bodies.
Tang Yue had been quiet these past two days, and Lin Cuicui was finally able to concentrate on sewing. Old Li was bored, so he decided to work with Lin Cuicui.
When Old Li picked up the needle and thread, everyone was shocked.
Old Li looked at them angrily, "Why are you looking at me like that? I'm alone. When clothes get broken, don't I sew them myself? What's so strange about that?"
Although he said it simply, Tang Shengkai and Lin Cuicui still felt inexplicably sad.
Lin Cuicui snatched the needle and thread from Old Li's hand and said, "Dad, you don't have to do needlework anymore. I'm here at home."
Old Li was very pleased, but he still wanted to struggle a little longer.
Lin Cuicui saw what he was thinking, "Dad, there's really no need. You and Third Brother's clothes can't be altered much, and I can just cut off a piece of mine."
Just sew for a few children.
I'll sew the outer clothes first. We can't all be slovenly when we get off the bus. The rest can be done later when we get to the destination."
The sister-in-law sitting opposite nodded in agreement after hearing Lin Cuicui's words.
"Oh, uncle, your wife is really sensible. Where are you going? If you're going to the border town, you can wear just this coat to get through the winter. Some thick clothes are not necessary at all."
Several people looked at the sister-in-law. "Sister-in-law, are you serious? It's warm over there?"
"Why, that's right. I've been there for three years. Even when it's coldest there, I can't wear as many clothes as you have."
Lin Cuicui was a little dumbfounded, "Really, sister-in-law?"
"Yes, you are from the north, right? The border town is the southernmost part of our country, and it's warm all year round. You won't wear this coat for a year or two. If you're going to wear it when you get off the train, you might as well sew something thinner."
Lin Cuicui was now holding a half-sewn piece of clothing in her hand. It would be awkward to put it down, but it would also be uncomfortable to continue sewing.
Tang Yue hadn't expected this difference. They'd always worn monastic robes before, so it didn't make much difference to them no matter what environment they were in. She hadn't expected this place to be like this.
On the way thereafter, her parents and grandfather talked a lot with the elder sister-in-law about the border town. However, the elder sister-in-law never revealed her identity.
The train was not moving very fast, and it took them nearly four days to get from the capital to the border town. After saying goodbye to the sister-in-law, they got off the train with their belongings.
The scorching heat washed over everyone's faces. As soon as they got off the train, they realized they were wearing too much. Helplessly, they took off their outer coats.
The streets, buildings, and everything else here were completely different from the capital. However, they were still unaccustomed to those big cities, so they seemed to be quite comfortable in places like this.
"Third brother, where can we find troops?"
Tang Shengkai was carrying a backpack and wanted to hold Tang Yue, but she refused. Dad was tired after several days of driving, and it was too hot here, so they really didn't smell good.
"Dad, let's go to the guesthouse and rest for a while. And clean up yourself, otherwise it won't look good if we go there like this."
Tang Shengkai looked at their appearance. Their clothes were wrinkled and their hair was messy. It was indeed a bit inappropriate.
"Okay, let's go out and find a guesthouse to rest first. Ask the guesthouse for a good place, and then we'll go there tomorrow."
Biancheng is a small town. I don’t know how big its overall area is, but the area inside the city looks okay. It should be much larger than Guxian County.
After walking and stopping, and asking many people, they finally found a guesthouse.
There was no way around it. They were unfamiliar with the place, but the main problem was the heavy accents, which often required them to use gestures to communicate. By the time they finally arrived at the guesthouse, it was already past noon.
They got off the train before 10 o'clock and it took them more than two hours to find a guesthouse.
Fortunately, the staff at the guesthouse could speak Mandarin, which avoided communication barriers.
Tang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. She really liked this place. Perhaps it was because of the vastness and sparse population, but she felt the spiritual energy here was richer than anywhere else she had passed.
There was a shower in the guesthouse. After they took turns washing up, Tang Yue thought she must practice quickly. She must use the cleaning technique.
Although she had already reached the second level of Qi training, she was still not able to skillfully use the technique. It was really uncomfortable not to take a bath for a few days in such hot weather.
The family gathered in a room. This place was thousands of miles away from Qiligou. Old Li and Tang Shengkai were wearing the same shirts and trousers as those secret agents. The shirts were especially attractive in their white color.
Old Li was a little uncomfortable at first, pulling here and there.
Looking at their handsome father and grandfather, the three brothers were extremely envious.
Lin Cuicui couldn't stop smiling at the way the two were dressed. Seeing the expectant looks in her three children's eyes, she wanted them to look nice too. But then she thought about how all those clothes would be wasted if they were cut up, and she couldn't bear to do it.
Tang Yue saw that the light of hope in the eyes of the three Tang Bei brothers had died out, and she was a little confused.
"Mom, let's go out and buy some clothes for me and my brothers."
"Ah? Want to buy it?"
Tang Shengkai looked down at her daughter's clothes. Indeed, her daughter had never worn new clothes before.
"Yes. Now that we're here, we can settle down right away. The children need two decent clothes. Otherwise, they'll be looked down upon."
Lin Cuicui grinned and wanted to say that she might as well cut up those clothes. But seeing the children all looking at her, she didn't say it in the end.
Forget it, just buy it. The money was earned by her daughter, so she should buy a few more things for her daughter.
Lin Cuicui was about to agree when there was a knock on the door.
