Under Zhou Yubai's protection, Shen Chuning soon arrived at the sleeper car.
The current sleeper car has six berths, with three layers and three berths on each side.
Zhou Yubai bought two tickets for the lower berths.
Because the lower bunk is much more spacious than the middle and upper bunks.
But there is one bad thing, which is that it is now generally accepted that the lower bunk can be used for people to sit on.
When Zhou Yubai and Shen Chuning arrived at the carriage, the other four people had already arrived.
At this time, except for the young female comrade sitting on the upper bunk on the right, the other three were sitting on their two lower bunks.
A young man was sitting on the lower bunk on the right, and an elderly couple was sitting on the upper and middle bunks on the left.
Nowadays, only families with some wealth and background can afford to spend money on sleeper tickets.
When they saw them coming and knew they were sitting on the lower bunk, they stood up politely and apologized to them.
"Comrade, I'm sorry. The train was too crowded just now. When my wife got on, she was squeezed and accidentally sprained her ankle. She sat in your seat for a while. Please don't mind."
Shen Chu Ning didn't like sitting on her bed, but under the current circumstances, it was impossible for her to be picky.
He waved his hand and said, "It's okay."
The man sitting on the lower bunk on their right also apologized to them and climbed onto his middle bunk.
Zhou Yubai carefully helped Shen Chuning sit down on the bunk, and began to pack his luggage.
Take out the daily necessities that you will need on the train, such as water cups, lunch boxes, washbasins, towels, toothbrushes, tooth cleaning powder, etc. first, and don't use the rest that you won't need, and stuff them all under the bed along with the luggage bag.
While Zhou Yubai was cleaning up, the old man who had just said that his wife had sprained her ankle looked at them, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Although Shen Chu Ning had never actually taken a train, let alone a sleeper berth, she knew at this time that the old man probably wanted to exchange berths with them.
Sure enough, after she finished thinking, the old man gritted his teeth and said, "Little comrade, I have an unwelcome request. My wife sprained her ankle, and it is a bit inconvenient for her to climb up and down when sleeping on top.
Both of your berths are lower berths. Could you please give us one of them? ”
After the old man finished speaking, he quickly added: "I'll make up the difference for you."
The lower berth bed is wider and more comfortable to sit on, so the ticket price is naturally more expensive.
Shen Chu Ning was still pregnant and couldn't climb up and down. She definitely couldn't give up her seat to the old couple. She looked at Zhou Yubai.
Zhou Yubai nodded without thinking, "Okay. Then I'll sleep in the middle bunk."
Actually it doesn't matter where he sleeps. The reason he bought two lower berths is so that he can take care of his wife more conveniently on the train.
Now that he had met someone who needed the lower bunk more than he did, he naturally gave up his lower bunk to him without hesitation.
The old man immediately thanked them profusely.
It was Shen Chu Ning's first time riding a train, and it was also the first time he knew there were beds to sleep on on a train. He was a little curious when he first got on the train.
But after the train started, the noise was so loud that it hurt my eardrums, and the monotonous scenery passing by outside the window gradually made me get tired of it.
After Zhou Yubai greeted the other people in the carriage, he closed the curtain on the lower bunk where she was sleeping so that she could rest in peace for a while.
When Shen Chu Ning woke up, he heard other people in the car already chatting.
The old couple who exchanged the lower bunk with them had a son in the capital, and they went to the capital to visit their son.
The female comrade on the upper bunk on the right was recommended to attend the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University and went to register at the university.
The men in the middle bunk were sent by their unit to a unit in the capital to learn advanced work experience.
Shen Chuning also opened the curtain.
The old lady who had exchanged beds with them saw that she had woken up and immediately asked her with a smile: "Comrade, you are awake, did we disturb you by talking just now?"
Shen Chu Ning waved his hands quickly, “No, no.”
In fact, the sound of the train engine and the voices of people chatting in the carriage had almost negligible impact on her.
Although Zhou Yubai didn't chat with everyone just now, he was worried about Shen Chuning sleeping alone in the lower bunk, so he sat by Shen Chuning's bed and watched over her.
Now that Shen Chu Ning was awake, he quickly asked her if she was thirsty or hungry.
Before Shen Chu Ning got on the train, he ate two big buns made by Lin Shulan.
But she was getting hungry quickly, and was really hungry at the moment, and she was also a little thirsty.
She blinked her big watery eyes and looked at the man, "I'm thirsty and hungry."
"Then you chat with everyone first. I'll go heat up the food and get some hot water." Zhou Yubai said gently, then stood up and left the car.
There are meals provided on trains now, but the boxed meals on trains are not only expensive but also taste bad.
In addition, food was only served at meal times, and Shen Chu Ning had slept past meal time, so even if he wanted to eat the boxed lunch on the train, he could no longer eat it.
However, this time when they went out, their parents and brothers and sisters-in-law on both sides took care of them, so they brought plenty of things with them and had no shortage of food.
In the luggage bag, there were not only cakes, but also meat buns and hot rice that Lin Shulan had made this morning. The rice was packed in aluminum lunch boxes.
The rice is also topped with the twice-cooked pork and shredded potatoes that Lin Shulan had freshly fried this morning. After warming up the lunch boxes in hot water, they become boxes of delicious twice-cooked pork and shredded potato rice.
"Little comrade, you are a lucky person. Your man is so considerate."
After Zhou Yubai went out, the old lady in the opposite shop said to Shen Chuning.
Shen Chuning looked a little shy, and replied with a smile: "Mother-in-law, your husband treats you well. If my wife and I can be together until we grow old like you and the old man, I will be satisfied."
When the old lady heard Shen Chuning's words, she looked shy like a little girl and glanced at the man who was applying hot compress to her sprained foot. The sweetness on his face could not be hidden.
"He doesn't have any other advantages, except that he has a good temper and is nice to me.
I think the one in your family is a caring person, and you will definitely be good in the future. ”
Shen Chu Ning nodded, she also believed this.
After all, with her knowledge of Brother Yu Bai since childhood and the evidence of the dream, no one knows Brother Yu Bai’s character better than her.
Then the old lady asked them what they were going to do on this trip.
Shen Chu Ning said that her husband was a soldier, and this time he was returning to the army, and she was also going with him.
Suddenly, not only the old couple, but even the other gay man and lesbian looked at her with a little more respect.
"The people support the army, and the army loves the people" has never been an empty talk. Now the whole society is very supportive and loving of soldiers and their families.
