On the day of departure, Su Lixiu and Liu Wenbin still came, along with Su Lixiu's parents-in-law and sister-in-law. Not only did they come to see them off, they also brought large and small bags of things.

The plums and peaches have been washed and look very fresh.

The scallion pancake was probably freshly fried, and it was still a little warm when it reached Zhang Fengxia's hands.

Farewell...

Inevitably, tears welled up again.

The train station was bustling with people, carrying large and small bags and waiting for the train. Su Ziyu carefully held his young wife in his arms, fearing that she would be bumped by the passengers rushing to and fro.

Little Qiping, who was blinking and looking around, was also held in Su Zijun's arms.

It was Zhou Xiuqiao’s first time to come to the train station. Looking at the people coming and going to get on the train, pick up passengers, and see them off at the station, she felt like a bow with a fully drawn string, and seemed extremely nervous.

Su Lili, who was holding Zhou Xiuqiao's arm, had an excited look on her face. She looked here and there like a curious baby.

Zhang Fengxia and Su Lixiu, mother and daughter, were still wiping their tears. Su Changjiang and Liu Wenbin's father were chatting beside them. It was not until the conductor's announcement urging people to get on the train came over the loudspeaker that everyone said goodbye in a hurry.

The weather was hot, and when we found a place to sit down, beads of sweat appeared on everyone's body.

It was little Qiping’s first time to take a train. He looked around and was so happy.

When the train started running, little Qiping danced with excitement as he looked at the mountains, trees and crops running wildly towards him.

"Mom, Second Aunt, look, there are so many sparrows over there..." Little Qiping pointed outside the window excitedly.

Everyone looked in the direction that Xiao Qiping pointed.

A group of wild geese formed a large V-shape, and the sight of them flapping their wings and soaring in unison was a delight to the eyes.

"That's not a sparrow, it's a wild goose." Shen Zhihuan smiled and scratched little Qiping's nose.

Xiao Qiping watched the geese disappear into the sky, then he reluctantly looked away.

"Second Aunt, is Dayan the sister of Yan Zi?"

"No, at most they can be considered relatives, and even more so distant relatives who are not even remotely related." Shen Zhihuan smiled.

The wild goose belongs to the family Anatidae in the order Anseriformes.

Swallows belong to the family Hirundinaceae in the order Passeriformes.

A goose and a sparrow, they are totally unrelated.

"Second Aunt, what is a distant relative?" Little Qiping blinked, looking curious.

"A distant relative who is not even remotely related is..."

Shen Zhihuan thought of a slightly simpler explanation, "They are very distant relatives, not close at all."

Hearing this, Xiao Qiping turned his head to look at Zhou Xiuqiao beside him and said in a baby voice, "Mom, aren't my uncle, grandma, aunt and our family just distant relatives?"

Shen Zhihuan: “…”

The little thing is really smart! "Yes! They and our family are relatives in the least way." Zhou Xiuqiao nodded with a firm look.

Apart from squeezing her hard, did that family ever have any affection for her? When she was a child, they drank porridge but didn't even let her drink rice soup.

Even the wild vegetables boiled in plain water could not satisfy her.

The reason is that cooking consumes a lot of firewood.

A hint of bitterness spread across Zhou Xiuqiao's tongue.

She collected firewood, dug wild vegetables, and even carried water from the water tank...

But she lived a life without enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear.

If there weren't wild fruits in the mountains, she might have starved to death in some corner.

"The days to come will get better and better." Seeing Zhou Xiuqiao's melancholy face, Shen Zhihuan comforted her softly.

Zhou Xiuqiao smiled and nodded firmly.

After leaving those vampires, she felt relaxed all over.

"Sister-in-law, is the school I'm going to far from home?" Su Lili suddenly thought of this question.

"It's not far, just a few stops. I'll take you to take two buses so you can get familiar with the route." Shen Zhihuan smiled.

"Second Aunt, is the school I'm going to go to far from home?" Little Qiping followed suit.

"If I said it wasn't far, would you dare to go there alone?" Shen Zhihuan asked with a smile, supporting his chin with his hand.

Xiao Qiping nodded heavily, "I dare."

"My little Qiping is so brave?" Su Lili joked with a smile.

"I am a man." Xiao Qiping raised his chin proudly.

Several people burst out laughing.

Even the passengers not far away were amused by Xiao Qiping's words.

A little kid who is not even as tall as a rice plant dares to call himself a man.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Men all sleep alone, so do you dare to sleep alone?" Su Lili teased him with a smile.

At night, he dared not even go out, how could he be a man?! "Why don't grandpa, my father, and my second uncle sleep alone?" Little Qiping frowned.

After these words were spoken, Su Changjiang and Su Zijun were so embarrassed that they didn't dare to look up at anyone.

Only Su Ziyu lowered his eyes and looked at his young wife, as if nothing had happened.

Zhang Fengxia glared at Su Lili with an unnatural expression.

The meaning was obvious, just to tell her to shut up.

Su Lili touched her nose angrily and dared not say another word.

I was afraid that the little guy would say something shocking again.

"Aunt, are grandpa, my dad, and my second uncle men?" Little Qiping blinked, with a look of confusion on his little face.

As soon as the little fellow finished speaking, everyone in the carriage started laughing like geese.

Su Lili, knowing that she had caused trouble, lowered her head and pretended to be dead.

"Aunt, are grandpa, my dad, and my second uncle men?" Little Qiping, who was eager to learn, couldn't get an answer from Su Lili, so he turned his attention to Shen Zhihuan.

Shen Zhihuan smiled and rubbed Xiao Qiping's head, "Your grandfather, your father, and your second uncle are of course men."

[If your grandfather wasn't a man, where would your father, your second uncle, your eldest aunt, and your youngest aunt come from? ]

[If your father wasn't a man, where would you be? ]

[If your second uncle wasn't a man, where did the little bean sprouts in your second aunt's belly come from? ]

These words rolled around in Shen Zhihuan's throat and were swallowed back.

Xiao Qiping frowned slightly, "Didn't my aunt say that men sleep alone? Grandpa, my father, my second uncle..."

"Before a man gets married, he has to sleep alone. When Xiao Qiping grows up and gets married, he won't have to sleep alone anymore." Shen Zhihuan said with a smile.

"Second Aunt, I'm afraid of the dark and don't want to sleep alone. Can I get a wife now?" Little Qiping grabbed Shen Zhihuan's hand and acted coquettishly in a baby voice.

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter again.

"But you don't even have a job, how are you going to support your wife?" Shen Zhihuan said seriously.

Xiao Qiping: “…”

"Also, school will start soon. If you go to school, who will accompany your wife? You can't take your wife with you to school, right?"

Xiao Qiping: “…”

"I don't know if the teacher will allow you to bring your wife with you?"

"Second Aunt, I don't want a wife anymore."
