Yan Rushan was speechless. As long as the old man was happy, that was enough.
Zhong Yuxiu turned her head and smiled, "Don't let him continue eating your hand, it's so dirty!"
Yan Rushan silently retracted his hand and handed the child to Gu Lingguo, "Comrade Gu, please carry him around." It was very annoying.
Gu Lingguo looked at the child in his arms, then at Yan Rushan, and then at Zhong Yuxiu; in the end he said nothing and walked around the carriage with the child in his arms. Gu Lingguo had never taken good care of him, and the little guy didn't recognize anyone and was happy to be carried by someone.
"Wife, give Liming to me." He freed up one arm and reached out to the baby in his wife's arms.
Zhong Yuxiu smiled and said, "No, I can hold you for a while. I'll give it to you when I can't hold you anymore."
Before Yan Rushan could respond, the train attendant who had gone to negotiate returned. "Sir, comrades, the kitchen staff has agreed to lend you the small stove. You can use the ingredients as you like, but only a little. You cannot touch the dishes prepared by others in the kitchen. As for the price of using the stove, including the coal, it's 50 cents per time. The price of the ingredients will be determined based on your needs."
"Okay, thank you for your help." This was perfect. There was a better choice of ingredients, and Feng Zheng had a place to use his skills. "Dasha, go to the kitchen with them and help cook the children's meals. When you're done, come over to eat. We'll be waiting for you."
Feng Zheng had no expression on his face and nodded foolishly; the members of the group looked at him strangely. A man like him didn't look like a chef at all, but he had said before that he brought a cook with him, so this man was undoubtedly a chef.
"Please." No matter what he thought in his heart, the conductor still maintained his professionalism, did not show it on his face, and asked the person to go to the kitchen.
Feng Zheng nodded and followed the conductor to the kitchen.
"Grandpa, are you hungry? Do you want to eat first? I'll go get you some food. There's no way to have lunch today, so just make do with it. I'll ask Feng Zheng to cook some good dishes in the evening." Zhong Yuxiu felt a little apologetic. The train was not as good as home, and she couldn't let the old man eat or drink well.
Yan Rushan said, "Grandpa, you're hungry, eat first. We'll wait for Feng Zheng."
"I'm not hungry. I ate a lot this morning and didn't move much, so my digestion is slow. I won't be hungry." The old man teased the child in his arms with a smile on his face. "Don't worry about me. I'm in good health."
His health is better than before, but his eldest grandson and his wife always take care of him based on his previous physical condition.
It is attentive, and I feel happy about it, but I am a little impatient.
"Okay, as long as you're not hungry." Yan Rushan didn't force it. Seeing that the old man was only focused on playing with his great-grandson, he lowered his head and spoke to his wife, "Wife, we're going to Province C. It'll take three days and three nights by train. The train will stop at a station for a while. Why don't you take this time to go out for a walk?"
"It's not long, so forget it. I'm bringing the child with me." If she didn't have the child with her, she would really go for a walk.
Yan Rushan curled his lips slightly and said with a smile, "Leave the child to Grandpa and Comrade Fang Guozhong."
"That won't work either. Feng Zheng is a bit stupid and needs someone to look after him. Gu Lingguo will definitely not stay in the carriage. Comrade Wang and Comrade Gong can look after the children, but they are powerless. If something really happens, it is even questionable whether grandpa can handle it alone." Zhong Yuxiu thought a lot. In those days, trains were quite chaotic, and thieves and human traffickers often appeared. It was not that the train police were irresponsible, but that the management system at that time had major flaws, and it was not something that could be eliminated just by wanting to.
"For safety reasons, we have to act together; try to go in and out together. We have three children in our family and if we are not careful, something could go wrong." It is most likely to go wrong if you take care of one thing and not the other.
Human traffickers won't be kind enough to help you look after your children.
According to later reports, the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s saw the most children lost, and were also the eras when people were least attentive to child discipline.
Yan Rushan smiled helplessly and said, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. Tell me what you want to eat and I'll buy it for you."
"Not yet. Let's do this for now on the train. It won't be too late to find something delicious after we get off the train." Zhong Yuxiu smiled, happy with his thoughtfulness. What's the point of getting married? First, you have to be willing and like the other person from the bottom of your heart; second, whether the man you want to marry is worth marrying.
The word "worthy" has a rather broad meaning. Some girls choose their partners based on appearance and wealth, some based on character, and some look for partners who are considerate and gentle. In short, one must be extremely cautious in choosing a partner.
She had seen countless men and chose Yan Rushan; maybe he was not perfect, maybe he was sometimes domineering, even a little chauvinistic; but he tried his best to take care of her, give her the greatest respect, and take care of her feelings in every possible way.
He knew what she liked and would always find ways to get it for her; if she liked to eat something, he would spend a lot of money to build a farm, wanting to give her the best and what she wanted most.
There are thousands of men in the world, and it is very difficult to find one who is suitable and who likes each other.
But she was lucky. After traveling through several dimensions, she finally found a suitable partner whom she liked in this stable life.
Yan Rushan's eyes were gentle and affectionate, and he seemed to have endless patience with her. "When we get to Province C, let's go eat hot pot. I heard there's a hot pot restaurant in the provincial capital. The food there is spicy and flavorful, very characteristic of Province C."
"Okay." Going to a place and eating the local specialties is one of the essences of travel.
Yan Guofeng felt his stomach and felt a little bloated. What was going on? He was being bloated by his eldest grandson and his granddaughter-in-law.
It was more than half an hour later when Feng Zheng came back with three bowls of egg custard.
"Sir, egg custard." There was a hint of hesitation and innocence in the words.
Yan Rushan nodded and said, "Thank you. Leave it here. Wife, please look after the children. I'll go get you and Grandpa some food."
"No need for you, I'll go see what's available to eat." Yan Guofeng waved his hand, stood up and walked towards the buffet area with the child in his arms.
Okay, the old man doesn’t need him, “Wife, what do you want to eat?”
"Just scoop it out as you see fit." Yan Rushan knew her preferences, and even if it was a little off, it wouldn't be that far off.
"Okay, if the meat tastes good, I'll give you more."
Yan Rushan followed the old man and took two plates from the buffet area. He first chose what he and his wife liked to eat and brought them back to the table. He then went to help the old man hold the child while he chose the food.
The old man chose his meal and went back to the dining table with Yan Rushan to compare the three plates. The old man chose a lot of meat, while Zhong Yuxiu's plate was only half meat and half vegetable, and the same was true for Yan Rushan's.
"Give me the Book of Rites." The old man stretched out his hand.
Yan Rushan gave it to him and turned to take the baby from Gu Lingguo's hand, "Comrade Gu, go get the food. And Dasha, you go too."
"Let's go." Gu Lingguo led Feng Zheng to the dining area, and each of them came back with a plate.
Yan Rushan and his wife, along with Yan Guofeng, fed the child first before starting to eat. After the meal, everyone returned to the carriage, and the person who was guarding the luggage went to the dining area to eat.
