Seeing that the train was about to leave, Cui Weiguo pulled Pan Shifeng aside and solemnly said, "This family is not simple. You can find a chance to inquire about them on the train."
Pan Shifeng's mind moved, and he asked uncertainly, "Do you want to find something to hold against them or..."
Or try to get close to him and build a relationship?
This point must be made clear.
They are not good people, and they all work in the committee, so some things need to be made clear. If Cui Weiguo wants to find someone to hold against him, then he will definitely try to fool them, he is not stupid.
Cui Weiguo frowned and said unhappily, "What are you thinking? Can people like us bring down a soldier of this level? The environment has not been right in the past two years, and we have to find a way out for ourselves. You can talk to your mother. She looks kind and it is easier for her to deal with female comrades."
After hearing this, Pan Shifeng understood.
He was disdainful in his heart. He was treated so harshly, and he had to flatter and find a way out. But on the surface, he agreed honestly, "Don't worry, I will definitely find out everything."
The conductor blew the horn, and there was no time to delay. Pan Shifeng hurriedly said, "Dad, remember to get Xiujuan and me back to the capital as soon as possible. I don't want Xiujuan to suffer over there."
Cui Weiguo nodded, "I understand, you guys take care of yourself."
The train started moving. Pan Shifeng took his wife and mother to find the sleeper car. When they went in, they were stunned.
It was really a piece of cake for him, as he was actually in the same carriage with those three people.
Of course, there were only four beds in a small private room, and three of them were already occupied. He was originally on their side, but in order to complete his father-in-law's task, Pan Shifeng exchanged seats with his mother Wei Dani.
When he took the things over, Pan Shifeng put on a kind expression and greeted the other person.
However, apart from the older man who nodded slightly at him, the other middle-aged woman and the teenage boy ignored him.
Pan Shifeng couldn't help but frown and felt a little embarrassed.
Then he talked to the old man again, "Uncle, are you going to the northeast?"
Lu Chengbai nodded slightly, "Yes, you are going to the Northeast too?"
Pan Shifeng nodded, "Yes, I'm going to the Northeast for work transfer."
Glancing at the mother and son, Pan Shifeng asked again, "Are you going to visit relatives?"
Lu Chengbai hummed and said nothing more.
Pan Shifeng had been in the capital for several years and had become quite shrewd. Seeing that the other party was unwilling to talk more, he did not ask any more questions. He put down Wei Dani's luggage and went next door.
The couple's bunks were in a private room. After they were settled, Pan Shifeng took Wei Dani to the bathroom and told her his father-in-law his guesses and explanations.
At the same time, Hua Yingyue said to Lu Chengbai, "Dad, you take a rest first. I'll go get some hot water."
Unlike the crowded hard seat carriages, the sleeper carriages are strictly managed and there are almost no people in the corridors.
Hua Yingyue went over there and saw someone standing at the junction of the two carriages not far away. She didn't think much about it. When she was getting water, she heard a familiar voice saying, "That old man is obviously a superior. His position is probably not low. The woman looks well-dressed. Her family must be powerful. Although my father-in-law didn't keep me in the capital this time, which made me unhappy, I have to admit that he is better at judging people. You just have to bear with it and build a good relationship with him..."
"You've said so much just to ask me to flatter you?" Wei Dani was a little unhappy. "What's all this about? You came to the capital with your real ability and have enjoyed a glorious life these past few years. But you have to leave for the Northeast because of Song Nanting's trivial matter. Now you want an old woman like me to compromise..."
Later, Pan Shifeng tried to comfort her again.
Hua Yingyue curled her lips, filled her water bottle and went back.
When they got to the private room, Hua Yingyue whispered what the mother and son said to Lu Chengbai while Wei Dani was still here, "You said there were all kinds of people, but you wanted to get close to her just by looking at her."
Hearing this, Lu Chengbai raised his eyelids, his expression unchanged, "Other people's affairs have nothing to do with us."
Hua Yingyue opened her mouth but didn't say anything more. Instead, she turned around and told her youngest son, "Strangers are not allowed to talk to them."
"I see. You are so long-winded."
As soon as she finished speaking, an old lady with a kind face and a smile came in. When she saw Hua Yingyue looking up and glancing at her, the old lady smiled even more sincerely.
"I heard you were going to Northeast China. We are going there too. I will follow my son. Are you going to visit relatives? Where are you getting off? It's fate that we are going together, and we can take care of each other."
Lu Chengbai smiled faintly but didn't respond. Hua Yingyue sneered and didn't respond either.
Wei Dani failed in the first round of attack.
In Xiaohe Village, Song Nanting was taking a bundle of cotton from Zhao Aihua. The cotton weighed eight kilograms and Zhao Aihua had spent a lot of effort to get it.
"Although the price is a bit high, you know, cotton is a precious commodity in the Northeast, and it's for a wedding, so it's okay if it's a bit more expensive."
Song Nanting said gratefully, "This is already very good. Let me take the money and buy it. Even if I offer a higher price, it will be useless if I can't buy it."
Zhao Aihua laughed when she said that. "I said you are the most generous. Okay, beat the cotton first, wash the quilt cover later and you can make bedding. You already have two quilts, so you can make two 4-jin quilts. You can stack them up to keep warm in winter, and use one quilt in spring and autumn. It saves trouble."
Song Nanting nodded, "Okay, I'll go water the vegetable patch first today, and I'll wash it when I come back."
After saying that, she went back to her room. Zhao Aihua went back to her room and said to Yang Changhe, "Is there still no clue about Liu Juan's work? I think she will be back in a few days."
