This time, Jiang Shushu chose another remote place, 1,600 km away from the coastal city.
After buying the ticket, Jiang Shushu sat in the hall waiting because the train would not arrive for another hour and a half.
Jiang Shushu casually placed the suitcase at his feet and sat there leisurely, like an ordinary person going out. As if the suitcase contained ordinary clothes, not things worth thousands of dollars.
The G City Railway Station is notoriously chaotic. Even with daily police patrols, it is still chaotic. People die for money and birds die for food. There are several gangs in G City who specialize in robbery, and businessmen passing by are their targets.
Jiang Shushu knew that the more nervous and concerned he was, the less safe he would be, so Jiang Shushu made preparations when he approached the train station.
Jiang Shushu sat on the stool for half an hour. Suddenly, a young man sat next to him, holding his bag tightly in both hands, his eyes rolling around as he looked around.
Young man: Why is there such a young girl sitting next to me? I hope I don't scare her later. The seats in this area were arranged in advance by the boss and cannot be changed casually.
Damn, this guy is afraid that others don't know what's in his bag. Is he really that nervous? Who would believe him if he said there's nothing valuable in his bag? G City Train Station is notoriously chaotic, don't you know? With this little courage and acting skills, what's the point of being a gangster?
The first time went smoothly, so I didn't want any problems this time. I'd be making multiple trips over the next few months, and I didn't want to cause any trouble or draw attention to myself.
Less than a minute after the man sat down, Jiang Shushu randomly found the aunt and asked, "Auntie, do you know where the toilet is?"
When the aunt saw such a pretty girl like Jiang Shushu, she immediately pointed enthusiastically and said, "I know, I know. Just go straight from here and turn a corner and you'll see her."
Young man: It’s good that you’re gone. ...
"Thank you, Auntie." After thanking her, Jiang Shushu took his luggage and went to the restroom. After using the restroom, he came out and found a place to sit far away from where he was just sitting, waiting for the train to arrive.
Jiang Shushu pretended to be bored and impatient while waiting for the bus like an ordinary passenger, occasionally twisting her body to relax, but she was actually secretly observing. Jiang Shushu's facial features were sensitive, and she soon discovered that there were four groups of people staring at the man who had just sat next to her.
At the beginning, Jiang Shushu thought that the man was being targeted by a local thug, but when he noticed that four groups of people were looking at the man intentionally or unintentionally, he knew that things were not simple.
The train station is so big, with so many people, and it's impossible for so many people to be watching just one package, right? Could it be that the police are setting bait to lure the rats out and play cat and mouse?
If it weren't for the fact that taking the things and leaving now would seem too conspicuous, Jiang Shushu would have wanted to leave this place of trouble, for fear that a commotion would arise and implicate her.
It was soon time for ticket checking. In order to stay away from trouble, Jiang Shushu immediately took his luggage and went to queue.
Jiang Shushu had just finished checking the tickets when there was a commotion in the hall. Someone shouted, "The police are here! Run!"
Jiang Shushu turned around and saw three young men being pinned to the ground. Two of them had run away and were being chased by someone.
Sure enough, the police are luring the snakes out of their lair. Apparently, the thefts and robberies at the train station have been so rampant lately that the police have had to crack down. Better come more often, lest those local tyrants get too arrogant and just think about making a killing.
Jiang Shushu took the train for another two days to arrive in City C. Just like when he went to City W, Jiang Shushu first spent half a day strolling around City C to understand the situation. Then he found people to understand the situation in a targeted manner. He selected several vendors with wealthy families and good character, cooperated with them, and quickly recovered the funds.
On the other side, in Q City, the letter sent by Jiang Shushu finally arrived at the Jiang family.
Huanhuanlele heard the voice at the door and shouted loudly into the house: "Grandpa, Grandma, there's a letter from Mom, come out quickly, Grandpa, Grandma, there's a letter from Mom, come out quickly!"
Jiang He has been worried at home ever since Jiang Shushu left. When he heard that Jiang Shushu had sent a letter, he ran faster than anyone else and didn't look like a man in his 60s at all.
Jiang He quickly opened the door and asked, "Comrade, is this a letter from Jiang Shushu?"
"Yes, it's sent to Jiang He. This package is also yours."
"That's me, that's me, just give it to me."
Jiang He happily took the package and letter into the house. Jiang He put the package on the ground and couldn't wait to open the thick envelope.
After reading the letter within the letter, Jiang He put the letter belonging to Yang Xiaobei away separately, and then read the letter written to him by Jiang Shushu.
Xu Hehua was also worried about Jiang Shushu who was far away. "Old man, what did Shushu say in the letter? Is she doing well out there?"
"Shushu said she's doing well out there and things are going well. She told us not to worry about her and to take good care of ourselves. Shushu also said she saw some special local specialties out there and sent them to us to try. She also said that if she comes across anything new out there in the future, she'll send it back to us..."
Seeing that Jiang He had said so much but hadn't mentioned them, Huan Huanle quickly asked, "Grandpa, did Mom say she missed us?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Your mother said she will miss you, and asked you to be good at home and eat well. When she is done with her work, she will come back to see you. Your mother sent us a lot of delicious food. Let's open the package together, okay? Let's see what delicious food your mother sent us?" Jiang He was afraid that the child would be sad because of missing his mother, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Okay, unpack."
Then the four of them opened the package sent by Jiang Shushu and took out a lot of food they had not eaten before.
Xu Hehua: "This cake is so special, it even has flowers on it. I've never seen that before. What's that black thing, old man? Oh my god, is it edible?"
Xu Hehua picked up a piece of black duck meat and sniffed it. "It has a very strong, strange smell. Could it have gone bad along the way?"
Jiang He also took a piece and smelled it. "It does smell strange, but the meat is dry and has no moisture at all, so it shouldn't be bad. Shushu has always been careful and must have asked clearly before mailing it. There's no way he would send us bad meat. Why don't you take some to the kitchen? We can steam it and try it."
"Okay, then you look after the two kids while I go to the kitchen to steam some."
There were two packets of black duck meat, one spicy and one non-spicy. Xu Hehua chose the non-spicy one, poured out half a basin, and then went to the kitchen.
20 minutes later, Xu Hehua brought out a pot of dark meat with a richer flavor.
Jiang He smelled it and said, "It tastes a bit like duck meat." This is the first time I've seen such black meat.
Xu Hehua, "It does look a bit similar, but it's definitely impossible. How can duck meat be as black as ink? I've lived for decades, and I've never heard of black duck meat." The smoked bacon I eat during the Chinese New Year isn't even half as black as hers.
