Zhao Hanqiao bought a standing ticket. For a college student like him, with no money, no job, and no connections, even buying a hard seat required the combined efforts of his entire family. After all, train tickets are not cheap. Zhao Hanqiao saved every penny he received from the school each month, saving all the subsidies he received, and only went home once a year for the Spring Festival.
Hard seats were hard to buy. Zhao Hanqiao bought his ticket late and only got a standing ticket. His mother found out a secret and told him to go to the sleeper car to find a seat.
There were too many people and it was noisy in the hard seat area. Zhao Hanqiao used his student ID to say that he wanted to use the toilet there and successfully stayed in the sleeper car.
Seeing that the carriage was empty, he tried to find a seat, but little did he know that he would run into Zhou Chuyu here.
Shu Hui knew Zhao Hanqiao. Ever since that incident, she felt unlucky whenever she saw him. Her brows were furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly, and her face clearly said "I refuse to talk to you."
Chu Chu recognized him, and her tone was very unpleasant, "What are you doing here? This is our private room."
Zhao Hanqiao frowned. Chu Yu had only made a little money from setting up a street stall, yet she was spending so lavishly, even buying a sleeper berth. It wasn't a good thing for a woman to become so smug after making money.
If she spends money like this before even getting married, what man will be able to tolerate her after marriage?
Ultimately, it's because they lack education, haven't gone to university, and can't maintain composure.
Zhao Hanqiao silently criticized this wasteful behavior.
"Don't think you're something special just because you've made a little money. Beijing is not the same as Deyang. Setting up a street stall in Beijing is not an easy thing. Without education and background, it's just a pipe dream to try to establish yourself in Beijing."
This train's destination is Beijing. Several carriages around here are also going to Beijing. Chu Yu is sleeping here, so she must also be going to Beijing. What can she do in Beijing? Set up a street stall or work as a factory worker?
No matter what job you do, food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all very expensive in Beijing. Does she really think she can stay in Beijing with that little bit of money?
That's just wishful thinking.
Zhao Hanqiao wanted to teach her a lesson, to make her face reality sooner, and to stop this good-for-nothing country woman from having unrealistic dreams, but the door to the private room slammed shut.
Zhao Hanqiao was humiliated and turned pale, inexplicably becoming irritable and angry.
"Zhou Chuyu, what kind of attitude is this! I kindly gave you some life advice, but you didn't take it to heart. You'll suffer sooner or later with this kind of personality. Just you wait and see!"
Chu Yu flung open the train door and cried out for help to the ticket inspector:
"Hello, someone is harassing me here. Could you please check their ticket?"
The flight attendant stared at Zhao Hanqiao with suspicion. Zhao Hanqiao's face turned red. He took out his student ID and stammered, "I'm a college student, not a bad person. I know her. She's from our village."
Chu Yu sneered: "Flight attendant, I don't know him. This person isn't from our carriage, but he keeps squeezing in. He looks sleazy and is obviously not a good person. Even if he's a college student, he's a college student with bad character."
College students are a rarity these days, and many people were looking this way. Zhao Hanqiao, with his strong sense of pride and barely suppressed anger, said bitterly:
"I never expected you to be so sharp-tongued and sarcastic. I really misjudged you before!"
"This is the attitude that trash deserves."
"Do you really think you're so great? You're just a self-employed guy who didn't even finish high school, you'll never get ahead, while I can stay in Beijing after graduating from university. You can never compare to me, and that's something you can't be jealous of!"
Chu Yu smiled and replied, "Of course I can't compare to you. Who can compare to trash? Jealous? Bah! Jealous of you, you piece of trash. Get lost! Don't bother seeing me out!"
Chu Yu's attitude brought a knowing smile to Shu Hui's face. Her daughter was much more capable than before and was no longer easily bullied.
In the year that Shu Hui opened her roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) shop, she changed a lot. She straightened her back, spoke louder, and understood many things.
People who are too weak and kind will be bullied.
Only by standing up like Chu Yu and protecting yourself will a man not dare to look down on you.
The experience of a sleeper berth is incomparable to that of a hard sleeper berth.
Shu Hui originally thought that the train journey would be very difficult, with no food or drink and even difficulty going to the toilet. However, after boarding the train, Chu Yu put the food he had brought on the small table.
It comes with oranges, canned goods, my favorite apples, a braised pork lunchbox, warm water, and instant noodles. If I want hot food, I can just make a packet.
Chu Yu rarely eats instant noodles, but when she eats them on the train, they taste quite special. She soaks them in hot water and adds a braised egg.
These days, there aren't any ham sausages, but putting some braised meat, pickled vegetables, and chili peppers in it is the same thing.
The instant noodles smelled incredibly fragrant after being brewed; not only Chu Chu, but even Shu Hui was drooling from the aroma.
After eating, take a nap. When you get tired of sleeping, you can read books or newspapers. When you get tired of reading, look out the window to relax your eyes. The whole of Greentown is not too hard to bear.
After getting off the train, even Shu Hui exclaimed, "It's so good to be rich. Once you spend money, you don't have to suffer anymore."
Qin Weidong listened to Chu Yu's advice and decided not to sell his properties. Dai Donglin went to Gangcheng with him, but couldn't pick her up this time, so he asked Mi Fei to pick her up at the station and take her to the courtyard house in Houhai.
"Chu Yu, Auntie, Chu Chu."
In front of Shu Hui, Mi Fei did not call her sister-in-law.
Shu Hui smiled kindly, "Mi Fei, it's been a long time. You look like you've grown taller."
Mi Fei is shorter than Dai Donglin. His parents are both short. He was only 173 cm tall last year, but he has grown a little this year and is now barely 176 cm.
These days, 176cm isn't considered short. Mi Fei has a small frame and looks quite energetic.
Mi Fei loved it when people complimented her on growing taller, and her eyes narrowed into slits with delight. "Auntie, you have such a sharp eye! I've only grown a little bit, and you noticed it all. By the way, what brings Xiao Chuchu here?"
