Chapter 243: Train Ride
Because she is an only child, Huang Xiaoyue has not suffered much since she was a child.
She herself has no desire to make money, just having enough to eat is enough.
Seeing her serious expression, Liu Yinyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope Huang Xiaoyue doesn’t think it’s unfair.
When she left, Liu Yinyin filled a large bowl of glutinous rice balls for her to take back.
There were too many glutinous rice balls, and she and Gu Yanyan couldn’t finish them all.
In the evening, Liu Yinyin cooked two bowls of glutinous rice balls for dinner.
Gu Yanyan has absolutely no resistance to soft and sticky things.
The little fat boy grabbed the spoon and put it into his mouth one mouthful after another...
Liu Yinyin wiped the corner of his mouth and reminded him, "Eat slowly, no one is competing with you for food."
There were not many glutinous rice balls in a bowl, just five, and Gu Yanyan finished them in no time.
The young man looked at Liu Yinyin with sparkling eyes and said, "Mom, I want more..."
Just five small dumplings were not enough to fill him up.
Liu Yinyin scooped him half a bowl of egg noodles: "Eat this."
I can't digest glutinous rice if I eat too much at night.
Gu Yanyan didn't even look at the noodles. His dark eyes were fixed on the glutinous rice balls in Liu Yinyin's bowl. He said firmly, "Mom, I don't want to eat noodles..."
Liu Yinyin: “…”
The little guy is even picky about food. How many people out there want to eat noodles but can’t even get them?
Not used to him, Liu Yinyin said to him: "Eat the noodles, mom will take you to find dad tomorrow..."
"Dad!" Gu Yanyan heard that she was going to look for her dad, and immediately opened her mouth and muttered, "I miss Dad..."
Liu Yinyin said, "So, if you eat the noodles obediently, mom will take you to see dad."
Gu Yanyan tilted his head and thought about it...
Well, compared to eating glutinous rice balls, he really wanted to find Gu Cheng more.
No longer thinking about the glutinous rice balls, Gu Yanyan continued to eat.
The next morning, Liu Yinyin cleaned the house.
Next, I fried some pork with garlic sprouts and packed up some spicy and sour potato shreds to take away.
Not long after, the three brothers of the Liu family arrived.
They carried a lot of bags because they were going to stay for a long time, so in addition to clothes, they also had to bring quilts.
Seeing that they had a lot of luggage, Liu Mingyuan offered to take them to the train station.
And there is Liu Yinyin...she and Gu Yanyan have a lot of things.
It just so happened that Liu Mingyuan was going to take Huang Xiaoyue to the hospital to check the fetus.
He pulled the cart and helped them carry their luggage to the train station.
When they arrived at the train station, Liu Yinyin held Gu Yanyan with one hand and carried the luggage with the other.
Big Brother Liu and Second Brother Liu were covered with bags of all sizes.
"Brother, second brother, and little sister, please be careful on the road." Liu Mingyuan instructed.
It’s the first time for us to travel far away, so we feel quite uneasy.
Liu Mingyuan said worriedly: "Little sister, you must take good care of Yanyan. I heard that there are many vendors on the train..."
It is true that some people have lost their children on trains and never found them again.
These traffickers are so heartless that they even kidnap children.
Liu Yinyin knew that riding a train was very chaotic in this era, so she held Gu Yanyan's hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, brother. Even if I lose myself, I can't lose him. We still have my elder and second brothers here."
If she were alone, Liu Yinyin would not dare to take this risk.
It would take two days to take the train, and she couldn't guarantee that she could keep an eye on Gu Yanyan all the time.
Brother Liu also said: "I must have taken good care of my younger sister and Yanyan."
They arrived not too early, and they didn't have to wait long before the train started checking tickets.
Liu Yinyin bought a sleeper berth ticket, which is very hard to buy these days and is extremely expensive.
It was also thanks to Gu Cheng's relationship that Liu Yinyin was able to buy three sleeper berth tickets, and Gu Yanyan's was free.
Liu Yinyin was also worried about him sleeping alone.
There are two upper and lower berths in one carriage, and not many people are sitting or sleeping on them at this time.
There was no one else in the carriage except them.
Brother Liu felt relieved and muttered, "There aren't many people on the bus."
In fact, that’s not the case. There are still quite a lot of people sitting in the hard seats. Liu Yinyin just saw that the carriage over there is definitely crowded.
It was the first time for both Brother Liu and Brother Liu to take a train. It was quite interesting at first, but soon they couldn’t stand it anymore.
"Little sister, I need to lie down and rest for a while." Brother Liu's butt was almost sore from sitting.
I never thought that sitting on this thing would be more tiring than working in the fields.
Liu Yinyin nodded: "Second brother, go to sleep."
The sleeper car was relatively safer. She had just noticed that crew members would pass by the car from time to time.
It was Gu Yanyan's first time going away from home. At this moment, he was leaning against the window looking around curiously, his eyes wide open and full of curiosity.
The little guy is in good spirits.
Liu Yinyin smiled and asked Brother Liu to help look after the child while she took the thermos to get a pot of hot water.
At noon, a flight attendant came over with a cart to sell meals, and Liu Yinyin decisively bought a box of lunch for Gu Yanyan.
It's quite cold, it's better for children to eat something hot.
The three adults ate the dry food they brought with them.
Jiang Cuihua was quite generous this time and steamed a big bag of cornmeal steamed buns, about the size of a fist, about thirty or forty of them, and a bag of hard-boiled eggs.
Together with the two lunch boxes of food that Liu Yinyin packed, the meal was actually quite good.
The food is cold because it’s cold and not suitable for Gu Yanyan to eat.
The meals we bought on the train were quite large in size. The staple food was white rice, and there were two dishes, sweet and sour pork ribs and fried pumpkin.
The sweet and sour spare ribs have an alluring sheen and look delicious.
Liu Yinyin took out Gu Yanyan’s small spoon from her bag and let him eat by himself.
She ate the food she brought with Brother Liu, the eldest and the second.
Cornmeal steamed buns, fried pork with garlic sprouts, and spicy and sour shredded potatoes.
Gu Yanyan ate half of the rice and a few pieces of pork ribs and was full. He pushed the lunch box to Liu Yinyin: "Mom, go to sleep..."
He has the habit of taking a nap, and after sitting in the car for so long, the little guy was already tired.
Liu Yinyin let him sleep in the bunk bed.
Liu Yinyin gave the remaining food to her elder and second brothers Liu, as she was already full.
Brother Liu was only about 70% full. He looked at the greasy sweet and sour pork ribs in the box and said, "Why don't we save some for Yanyan to eat tonight?"
What they had just eaten was good enough.
Liu Yinyin: "No, I'll buy him a hot one in the evening."
Compared to the black market, the food on the train is not expensive and is still quite a good deal.
Brother Liu: “…”
He sincerely felt that his younger sister had raised her child too lavishly.
However, he didn't say anything. My younger brother-in-law only has one child now, so it's normal for him to care about the child so much. It would be nice if he could have more children in the future.
The time on the train was very difficult to endure, but luckily they had bought sleeper tickets, so they could take turns to sleep for a while when they were tired.
Time doesn't pass too slowly.
