Several children were lying on the glass window. Ye Zhi took out a rag, wet it, and wiped it, saying, "Wipe it clean before watching."
After the glass windows were wiped, they seemed to be clearer. The children looked at the passengers outside and said:
"It's so crowded, it seems like there are even more people than when we first got on the train."
"Everyone is carrying a lot of luggage. Look, brother, that little boy has a model train!"
“Oh my god, his model train is so beautiful!”
"Wow, An An, that little girl has a butterfly clip on her head!"
The children were chattering, and Ye Zhi and Lu Wei took out the prepared sheets and made the small bed. By the time they had made the bed, the train had not yet departed.
Seeing a few children still leaning on the window sill to watch the passengers rushing to catch the bus, Ye Zhi said, "Pass the kettle to mom."
Sui Sui handed Ye Zhi a kettle, and Ye Zhi unscrewed the spout, gulped down a few sips, and then handed it to Lu Wei: "You should drink some too."
After Lu Wei took it, Ye Zhi also came up to the children and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Ye Zhi didn’t understand what was so good about this. Wasn’t it just a person?
Ping Ping laughed and said, "Mom, we are counting how many people are getting on the bus. There are so many people. I can't count after 25."
An An squeezed over and said, "Mom, I counted to 28, but then there were too many people squeezing around, and I couldn't count anymore."
Several children were chattering, one after another, and Ye Zhi's ears were hurting.
However, she still looked in the direction the child pointed, and happened to see Ye Hongying, who was running breathlessly with a bag of luggage, and in front of her was Gao Wenbo.
The two seemed to have a sense of each other. When Ye Hongying looked up, she saw Ye Zhi and her eyes were stunned for a moment.
Ye Zhi was still thinking about saying hello to her, but Ye Hongying seemed to be in a hurry to catch up with Gao Wenbo and had already walked towards the front seat compartment.
Ye Hongying was feeling very depressed as she walked along the platform with the crowd!
She was already annoyed at the entrance of the train station just now. When buying the ticket, Ye Hongying wanted Gao Wenbo to buy a sleeper berth, but Gao Wenbo said there was nothing left and bought her a standing ticket.
When she thought about having to return to Gao Wenbo’s hometown standing, she wanted to just leave!
But just now I saw Ye Zhi's family in the sleeper car, talking and laughing outside. It was really dazzling.
However, Ye Hongying didn't have time to think about it, otherwise she would not be able to get on the train.
After finally catching up with Gao Wenbo, he looked at Ye Hongying and said, "Why did you follow me? Your ticket is in carriage No. 7."
Ye Hongying got angry when she heard this: "What? You didn't buy our tickets together?"
It’s okay that there’s no sleeper berth, it’s also okay that there’s no hard seat ticket, but I can’t even afford a train ticket, so what’s the point of going there!
That bastard Gao Wenbo didn't even want to take her home!
Ye Hongying threw down her luggage bag and said, "I'm not going there!"
Gao Wenbo glanced at her expressionlessly and said, "It's up to you." Then he stepped onto the train without looking back.
Ye Hongying was squeezed by the crowd getting on the train. She couldn't help but yell at the crowd around her: "Ah——"
Those who were rushing to get on the bus cursed: "You are a fucking psychopath!"
"Are you going to get in the car or not? If you don't want to get in the car, can you please get out of the way?"
"Fuck you, if I can't catch the train home, I'm going to kill you!"
Ye Hongying was pushed several times by the crowd who were rushing to get on the train. She lost her balance and fell directly onto the concrete floor. The pain made her burst into tears on the spot.
Her luggage was trampled into pieces by the crowd.
She shouted at the crowded carriage: "Gao Wenbo, I must be blind to follow you like an idiot!"
After a while, the train finally started moving. There were many people on the platform who came to see it off, and they all waved towards the carriage.
Ye Zhi had nothing to do, so she took out the oranges she had prepared in advance and peeled two for the child to eat.
After the children finished eating the oranges, they saw that the train had left the platform, so they rolled up the windows. The cold wind blew in, and several of them could not help shivering.
Ye Zhi rolled down the car window a little bit and said, "Don't open it too wide, or you might catch a cold."
A few children giggled, as if they didn't feel cold at all, and even stretched out their hands to let the wind blow on them.
Seeing this, Lu Wei reminded them, "Don't stick your head out. If the train speeds up later, you won't be able to do that anymore."
"Okay, I got it, Dad!" Several children said in unison, louder than the clanking sound of a train.
The children played for a while, and finally got a little bored looking at the almost monotonous scenery outside the window.
At this moment, Ye Zhi and Lu Wei had already squeezed onto the small bed and lay down, wrapped in a quilt, reading a novel together.
Nian Nian and Sui Sui climbed onto the upper berth, while Ping Ping and An An threw themselves on Ye Zhi and Lu Wei, saying, "Dad, Mom, what are you looking at?"
Ye Zhi hesitated and said, "Reading books for school."
The novel that Ye Zhi was reading was brought over from Hong Kong by Gong Yuqiong. It was Jin Yong's "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", and it was in traditional Chinese characters, which the children couldn't understand.
But the children are too young, so it’s probably not suitable for them to watch it.
Ye Zhi was able to understand some traditional Chinese characters because she watched TV dramas there when she was a child. If she didn't understand something, she had to ask Lu Wei.
Lu Wei didn't quite understand either, but he was so absorbed in watching it that even if he didn't understand it, it didn't affect his ability to understand the plot.
And Lu Wei was even more fascinated than her.
Because Guangzhou can receive TV stations from Hong Kong, they had watched a few episodes of the TV series before. Ye Zhi saw that he liked it very much, so Ye Zhi took the novel with her, but forgot to bring the children's picture book.
The two children scrambled for their books and said, "No, Mom, the books you read at school weren't like this!"
An An said, "Dad, please read it to us! We want to read it too!"
Lu Wei was driven crazy by the two little guys who kept pulling at him. The bed was narrow to begin with, and he slept half of his body on it. He would fall off if he wasn't careful.
Now the two children pulled hard together and Lu Wei almost fell to the ground.
He then said, "Go play hide-and-seek with your brother. This is not suitable for you kids. Besides, it's full of words, which you don't recognize."
Ping Ping frowned: "How come you guys can watch it but we can't?"
An An hugged her little arms and snorted, "You mean bastard, you just don't want to show it to us! We can't read it to us, can't you?"
Lu Wei smiled and said, "Yes, I won't show it to you. This is for adults."
As he spoke, he half sat up, then lifted them to the bed opposite with one hand, then threw a clean quilt on them and let them play by themselves.
Lu Wei: "Go, go play hide and seek, don't disturb me and your mother from reading."
There aren't many holidays to begin with, and it's rare for me to have some fun with my wife, but having several children makes it impossible to have peace.
This time, Lu Wei will not let those children occupy his wife again.
Ping Ping and An An were thrown aside by Lu Wei. They were a little angry and knelt on the small bed together, hugging their arms: "No, we want to read your books."
Niannian and Suisui were like two little monkeys on the upper bunk, having a great time. When they heard Pingping and Anan getting angry, they bent down, looked down at them, and said, "Sister, play Monster vs. Sun Wukong with your brother."
"Desheng gave us the golden hoop. Look, sisters, it really can grow bigger and smaller like in the comic books!"
The two little guys became excited when they heard it, "Brother, come down and play, it's too high, we don't want to go up."
Seeing that the children were playing, Lu Wei lay back down and took his wife back to read together. Ye Zhi was squeezed by him and said in disgust, "It's too crowded. Isn't there another book in the bag? Go read something else."
Lu Wei didn't listen, he turned his body, then adjusted his posture, let her go a little, and said, "No, I want to watch it with you."
Ye Zhi had no other choice. If she pushed any further, Lu Wei would probably fall to the ground.
Seeing that she stopped talking, Lu Wei kissed her on the cheek, but one kiss was not enough, so he kissed her a few more times.
Ye Zhi lost her temper and couldn't read any more, so she said, "I brought the ginseng with me, please keep an eye on it and don't let anyone take it away."
Lu Wei smiled and nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Then he asked, "Why did you take the ginseng with you?"
Ye Zhi closed the book and turned sideways to give Lu Wei more space to lie down. She smiled and said, "Grandpa and grandma are old. I don't know if they will go south again after returning to Beijing this time. If they don't want to go, leave the things to them."
Ye Zhi looked at the two ginsengs. Each one weighed almost one kilogram and was a rare and valuable commodity.
No matter how healthy an elderly person is, he is still not as good as a young person.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu have taken so much care of them over the years, and Ye Zhi also wants the two old people to stay by her side and take care of them in their old age.
However, if they want to stay in Beijing, Ye Zhi will respect the wishes of the elderly.
After all, returning to one's roots is a unique thought and sentiment held by many people.
Lu Wei nodded and kissed Ye Zhi on the forehead, "Yeah."
Ye Zhi leaned her head into Lu Wei's arms and asked, "Lu Wei, where do you want to go when we get old?"
Lu Wei stroked her back and said without hesitation: "Wherever you are, I will be there. So where do you want to go?"
Ye Zhi looked up, met his eyes and smiled: "I haven't thought about it yet." Then, Ye Zhi smiled and leaned close to his ear and said: "But after I graduate from university, I want to go back to Qiongzhou Island."
Even though they also bought a house in Guangzhou, Ye Zhi felt that their home had taken root on that island as beautiful and rich as a pearl. Bathed in the sunshine, it took root and sprouted, and grew into a towering tree.
It can protect them from both wind and rain.
Lu Wei's eyes lit up instantly. Not knowing what he was thinking of, he leaned close to Ye Zhi's ear and said, "I've wanted to go back for a long time. I miss our bed, and..."
"A big mirror."
Ye Zhi's eyes widened, remembering last night when Lu Wei complained that the mirror in the room was not big enough, and her face turned red: "Rogue!"
Then she tapped the book in her hand on Lu Wei's face and said sullenly, "When you return to Beijing, you can sleep with your two sons."
Lu Wei took the book off his face, curled his lips and said nothing.
Seeing this, several children shook their heads and said, "Dad is so shameless. He always bullies Mom and doesn't let her play with us."
"That's it, a follower!"
"Damn sticky bug!"
