She had known the benefits of accumulating merit for so many lifetimes, and she also knew how rare it was, so she would never complain about having only a few merits.
As long as the burly man wasn't too unpleasant to look at, Tang Baozhu felt she could still go for it, and everything was geared towards achieving merit.
After dinner, everyone had washed up and was preparing to rest when Tang's mother quietly went into Baozhu's room again.
Tang Baozhu didn't say anything when she saw her mysterious look, but she wanted to know what she was up to.
After Tang's mother came in, she didn't say anything. She just quietly took out a stack of money from her pocket. It was all loose change, not a single bill. She counted it over and over again before reluctantly handing it to Tang Baozhu.
Seeing her like this, Tang Baozhu really wanted to say, "If you can't bear to part with it, then so be it. I'm not short of money."
However, Tang's mother didn't give her a chance to speak, perhaps afraid that she would regret it. After stuffing the money into Baozhu's hand, she only left one sentence, "Spend this money sparingly," and then left the house.
So sometimes Tang Baozhu didn't know how to describe these parents. If you were to say they were good to their child, then they really weren't. After all, they had neglected their child quite a bit since she was little. They already had a daughter and a son, so when another daughter came along, they really ignored her completely.
If you're saying it's bad for the child, now that you're going to the countryside, you're buying things for them and giving them money. You could say it's not exactly good, but it's not completely bad either. This is probably how most parents are these days.
Since she had given it to them, Tang Baozhu accepted it. She could simply treat the two elders better in the future, after all, she had won their hearts in return.
After all, they were her parents. As long as she didn't wrong the original owner of this body, Tang Baozhu usually treated them well, which could be considered as fulfilling her filial duty to the original owner.
I counted it, and it was only 20 yuan, not too much, not too little, which is almost a month's salary for Tang's mother, so it's quite generous.
It's a shame that there are no subsidies for signing up to go to the countryside now, unlike a few years ago when there were subsidies.
After packing everything, I suddenly realized that my documents and other things weren't in my possession. If I didn't get my documents, I wouldn't be able to get a train ticket and wouldn't even be able to go to the countryside.
Thinking that Tang's parents would probably give it to me tomorrow, and that they would bring it over tomorrow, I could just remind them if they forgot.
He blew out the candles in the room and went straight into the space. He had just eaten out and hadn't had a proper meal; he had only eaten a little bit. He was used to eating delicacies, and it would take some getting used to eating these things again.
Tang's parents didn't suspect anything when they saw that she hadn't eaten much. They just thought that she was probably reluctant to leave because she was going to the countryside, and that's why she couldn't eat much.
While everyone is asleep, I'd like to quickly go into the space and indulge in some meat. However, my body hasn't had any meat in a long time, so I don't dare to eat too much. If I can't handle it, I'll really be spending my days in the toilet.
Eating and drinking in the space made the time fly by, and by the time we came out, it was already midnight outside.
I lay carefully in bed, trying not to make a sound, and quickly closed my eyes to sleep.
The next day, Tang Baozhu was woken up by her mother, who kept saying she would be late and told her to get up and eat quickly so she could pack her things and go to the train station.
There's really no need to rush. The train leaves at 8 o'clock, and it's probably not even 5 o'clock yet. Plus, I went to bed late last night, and it feels like I just closed my eyes when I was woken up.
But seeing how hurried she was, he could only obediently get up, pack everything up, and only after making sure nothing was left behind did he carry his luggage out of the house.
"Eat something quickly. I steamed a few buns for you to eat on the train. I didn't make many, so you have to eat them sparingly."
Tang Baozhu glanced at the breakfast she had prepared for herself on the table: a bowl of mixed grain porridge, a small dish of pickled vegetables, and nine steamed buns made from two kinds of flour in a bowl. She had calculated that she would have one bun for each of her three meals a day on the train over the next three days. She had really planned it out meticulously.
It's true that I just started to like them, and they ruined that liking in an instant.
I remember making some dry food for myself to eat on the road, but I was particularly meticulous in my calculations. I made one steamed bun of mixed flour and water for each meal, each about the size of a baby's fist. Was this made on purpose to ensure I wouldn't starve?
I'm glad I have plenty of delicious food in my storage space. If I had to rely on this, I wouldn't have starved to death on the train, but I would have been quite uncomfortable.
"This is your ID. You must keep it safe. If you lose it, you'll never be able to find it again."
While they were eating breakfast, Tang's mother handed over Tang Baozhu's identification documents. She was glad that Tang had taken them, otherwise she would have had to ask her for them again.
I ate a bowl of multigrain porridge with pickled vegetables. It probably took a long time to cook, but it wasn't bad. It might have been better with sugar, since multigrain porridge is considered a diet food in modern society.
After eating her fill, she packed all the steamed buns in a lunchbox, the same lunchbox she used to carry cornbread when she was a little girl in school.
I've used it for several years, and then it's been unused for two years. It's really old and worn out, so I can only make do with it for now. After I get off the train, I'll replace everything else.
When it was time to leave, Tang's father simply picked up her large bag of luggage. There weren't many things to begin with, and with a little squeezing, they all fit inside.
This was with an extra thick quilt added, so you can imagine how much stuff they brought. The luggage looked quite large, but in reality, there weren't many items.
After coming downstairs, Tang's father borrowed a bicycle from somewhere and had Tang Baozhu sit on the back of the bicycle while carrying the large package. Then they rode the bicycle towards the train station.
This feeling of not being able to see what's ahead is really unpleasant. Fortunately, the train station isn't too far away, only about half an hour away. If it were any longer, I feel like my butt wouldn't be able to take it.
The road was so difficult to walk on, going up and down, and only my backside suffered.
Upon arriving at the train station, Tang Baozhu had just gotten off her bicycle when her father simply said, "Be careful," and then left.
You just left like that?
How big must this father's heart be?
They didn't seem worried at all, as if they had just completed a task. They dropped her off and left without even thinking about taking her to the train station or putting her on the train. They were really quite at ease.
Fortunately, Tang Baozhu is not the original little girl. If she were, she would probably be terrified.
