162. Chapter 162 Carriage



Although the old lady was angry and left, the other people looked at Shen Ruoqing with a slightly subtle look. After all, that was just a child. It was really unreasonable for Shen Ruoqing, who was so old, to bully a child.

"You can tell at a glance that the child was spoiled by his family. Didn't his family teach him not to take other people's things? And you can tell at a glance that the lady dotes on her grandson, but she beats and kicks the lady whenever her grandson is not satisfied. Moreover, when you were asleep before, I saw that child coming over to rummage through your bag, and she stopped only after I noticed. I didn't say anything because she was too young. Ruoqing, you did nothing wrong." Mu Bai's voice rang out in the carriage. After hearing these words, the passengers felt that they made some sense.

"How can a young kid like that rummage through other people's bags?"

“Isn’t this a thief’s behavior?”

"Yes, you can tell at a glance that the child is spoiled."

"This child can't be spoiled too much."

After a while, the young man who had exchanged seats with the old lady came back. He knew that it was Shen Ruoqing who helped him change his seat. He blushed and said thank you to Shen Ruoqing. The hard seat carriage smelled too bad. Many people brought chickens, ducks and geese on the train. It was so smelly. In addition, it was very crowded at the next few stations. There were really no good sleeper berths.

Shen Ruoqing didn't care much about it. She helped him only because she didn't want to have any contact with that lady anymore.

It would take a long time to reach Beijing. Shen Ruoqing drank the hot water that Mu Bai had brought and slept for a while. Suddenly it was night. When Shen Ruoqing woke up again, the lights in the carriage were on and the smell of various foods filled the entire carriage.

People started selling boxed lunches on the train.

A train attendant pushed a dining cart and shouted, "It's time to eat, it's time to eat, 80 cents a portion, one meat and one vegetable."

Mu Bai asked Shen Ruoqing what she thought and went to buy two meals. He paid for the dishes and came back. The young man in the lower bunk opposite also bought a box lunch and sat up to eat. However, the people in the upper and middle bunks had been sleeping under the covers, and Shen Ruoqing had not seen them get up yet.

There was one meat dish and one vegetable dish, but neither of them had much appetite. There were two cornmeal buns and one stir-fried cabbage with meat, with only two slices of fat and one potato chip on top.

But Mu Bai ate very seriously and slowly, as if he was cherishing every grain of food. But this is how it is in this era, everyone will cherish food. Shen Ruoqing took out the meat sauce again.

The big brother next to him came over again with a shameless look: "Little girl, can I exchange another spoonful of that meat sauce with you? Yours tastes so good that this one doesn't taste good to me." He raised the lunch box in his hand, and it seemed that he had also bought some food on the train.

Shen Ruoqing naturally agreed. In fact, she still had meat sauce in her space. She thought her sister-in-law's sauce was delicious, so she asked her sister-in-law to make a batch of it and put it in her space under the pretext of selling it to her classmates, so that she could take it out and eat it whenever she wanted.

"Little girl, your meat sauce tastes really good. It would be great if you could bring more. I really want to buy more and take it home for my lover to taste."

She doesn't make money from this. If others are greedy and want to eat it, she will just give them some instead of selling them another bottle.

"Brother, if you really like to eat it, I can tell you the method of making it. These are all made by my sister-in-law, and I have memorized the method. However, the taste of what I make is always much worse than that of my sister-in-law. If you want to eat it, I can tell you the method and you can try it yourself when you go home." Shen Ruoqing had a good impression of this elder brother, so he was willing to say a few more words.

"Are you willing to tell me the method? You'd better not tell me. Your sister-in-law will be unhappy if she finds out." The eldest brother was a little unbelievable. A meat sauce like this that tastes so good must be a family secret recipe, but she was willing to tell a stranger so casually.

"It's okay. My sister-in-law said she doesn't care. Peel the fat and lean meat, use a meat blender to grind it into small pieces, put it in a bowl and set aside. You can also cut it into dices with a knife, and then..."

Shen Ruoqing spoke very slowly, and the elder brother took out a pen and paper and wrote down her words carefully. When he heard that so many kinds of seasonings were needed, such as chili sauce, pepper powder, white sesame seeds, chicken essence, sugar, minced ginger, minced garlic, soybean paste, and red soy sauce, the elder brother couldn't help but be amazed. No wonder it tasted so good.

"Thank you so much, sister. I've written down this method. I'll let my wife try it when I get back. This scarf is for you. I brought it from Hai City. It's also a token of my gratitude." The elder brother took out a beautifully packaged box. "You're welcome."

"This should be something you bring to your lover, right? It's better not to give it to me." Shen Ruoqing declined.

"I bought two boxes, and I'm giving you one as a thank you gift. Since you're willing to give me such a precious meat sauce secret recipe, don't refuse it.

"Ruoqing, just take it." Mu Bai also felt that since he had given away the secret recipe for such a delicious meat sauce, it was not too much to accept a silk scarf from someone else.

Shen Ruoqing accepted it.

The young man on the lower bunk opposite saw it and was also very curious about Shen Ruoqing's meat sauce. The taste was so fragrant that the cornmeal buns he was eating were tasteless.

But he was too embarrassed to ask for it.

So I just watched helplessly.

Since the other party didn't say anything, Shen Ruoqing would not take the initiative to speak up. She just pretended nothing had happened and ate her own food. She didn't have any good feelings towards the young man.

After looking at the other party for a long time and seeing no intention of speaking, the young man complained that Shen Ruoqing had no tact and could only eat his meal in depression.

After they finished eating, Mu Bai helped Shen Ruoqing get some water. Only then did Shen Ruoqing see the person in the middle bunk opposite get up to eat.

The middle bunk opposite was occupied by a middle-aged man, who looked rather frail and was wearing a Lenin suit. He had just come down to get some hot water. He brought a few steamed buns with him and ate them directly with the hot water.

When he came down, he glanced at Shen Ruoqing.

After dinner, he took care of his own personal problems and then climbed back to the upper bunk. On the other hand, the person on the upper bunk had slept all day without moving.

Unexpectedly, the old lady came again in the evening.

It turned out that she only bought a seat ticket for a certain part of the journey, and planned to evade the fare for the rest of the journey. As a result, she offended the conductor and was discovered and had to buy a ticket, but there were no more seats left, and only the upper bunk next to Shen Ruoqing was available.

"There is only one sleeper ticket left. It's up to you to take it or not. If not, you can only buy one without a seat." The attendant said impatiently.

"I'm staying overnight, how can I buy a ticket without a seat? Are there really no hard seats left? I'm an old woman with pity..."

"Stop, I've already told you very clearly that there are no seats left. You bought your own ticket, why don't you buy it and go directly to your destination?"
