After Zou Yuan exposed the cruel reality, He Ying did not dawdle any longer and went back to her parents' home to pick up her temporary luggage before cooperating with them to get in the car and leave.
Yun Qiao and her friends celebrated the Lantern Festival in Shanghai before setting off back to the Northeast.
The family's main mode of transportation back to Northeast China from Shanghai was still a plane. Yun Qiao simply closed his eyes and sat on it, not daring to think about how much the journey had cost.
The plane landed at noon. The family of three had lunch in the simple canteen at the airport and took the bus outside the airport back to the area.
Since the train ticket was due in the evening, we had plenty of time, so the three of us went for a walk along the nearby Central Street and had a Russian afternoon tea.
The ticket from Harbin to Dunshan was a hard sleeper. He Tingjun asked a friend to buy two lower berths for him to sleep in for one night. The train arrived in Dunshan early the next morning.
The train from Harbin to Dunshan arrives at the same time as the departure time of the rural railway, so there is no time to rest after getting off the train, and you must rush to the platform where the rural railway is located as quickly as possible.
He Tingjun was holding He Yan in his arms, carrying his luggage on his back, and walking hurriedly in front.
Yun Qiao followed behind him, looking at his solid and broad back, and suddenly recalled that late autumn.
It was the same at that time, he was running fast in front and she was following closely behind.
The difference was that at that time, he was carrying the two large bags of luggage she brought with her to the countryside, but now, he was holding their daughter in his arms.
They were sitting together at the time and were mistaken for a couple by the train conductor of the Agricultural Railway. Five days later, they really became a couple.
Fate is truly indescribable. If it were Yun Qiao five months ago, she would never have thought that she would marry her uncle's friend.
It was still the same process of getting on the train first and buying the ticket later. The rural railway started moving slowly. After the train was running smoothly, He Tingjun got up and went to the dining car in front to buy breakfast.
Yun Qiao still remembered that youtiao (fried dough sticks) were sold on the Nong Railway without a ticket, so he specifically asked He Tingjun to help him buy a big one.
He Tingjun left as he was told, and came back five or six minutes later, bringing not only fried dough sticks but also a person Yun Qiao had never expected.
"㫧静!!"
"It's really you! I'm not seeing things!" Yun Qiao opened his eyes wide in surprise. He stood up, took her hand, and asked, "Did you just come back from visiting relatives in the capital?"
"That's right." Zheng Yujing nodded and smiled, "You called me before and told me that you would come back to Northeast China around the Lantern Festival. I was wondering if we would run into each other on the road, but I didn't think it would be such a coincidence. Who would have thought it would be such a coincidence!"
"What a coincidence indeed." Yun Qiao pulled her to sit in the seat next to him and asked her, "Are you from Harbin? Which bus did you take to Mount Ton?"
"That 728 flight last night." Zheng Yujing said, "What about you guys?"
"We took the 728 last night, but why didn't I see you getting on and off the train?" Yun Qiao asked, "Which car were you in?"
"I was in the back, in carriage 15," Zheng Jing said. "Maybe we were too far away, and there were so many people getting on and off the train, it was so crowded that I didn't notice."
"Indeed," Yun Qiao said, "We were in the hard sleeper car at the front, and it was really too far away from the back."
"Are you going out to have fun this time? I haven't been to the south yet. Is it really not cold at all in the south in winter?" Zheng Jingjing asked curiously.
Yun Qiao: "It's not cold, it's about the same as autumn here, 20 degrees Celsius, cold-resistant enough to even wear a skirt."
"That's quite nice, not too cold. Those who can't stand the cold can go there to spend the winter." Zheng Yujing pinched He Yan's smiling face with her fingers and said with a smile, "Yanyan has grown up a lot."
"He's over a year old, so of course he looks older than when he was a few months old."
The last time Zheng Yujing saw He Yan was during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Time flew by quickly and half an hour had passed in a blink of an eye.
Yun Qiao asked her, "Did you meet Ji Ping when you returned to the capital this time?"
Zheng Jing hummed and said, "I see."
When Ji Ping was mentioned, two red clouds flew across Zheng Yujing's pretty cheeks. She lowered her eyes shyly, feeling a little embarrassed to look into Yun Qiao's eyes.
When Yun Qiao saw this, he immediately understood.
"It seems that since returning to Beijing this time, your relationship with Comrade Ji Ping has made some progress."
