Chapter 114 Return to Shanghai



"Why didn't you go?" Shen Nian asked Keke.

"I'm not going. I can't earn much work points anyway. The village chief is staring at me every day. If I go to get next year's work points now, the village chief will probably kick me out. Besides, my family doesn't need these points. I can't take them back with my small body, so... I think it's better not to join in the fun."

Coco shook the pillowcase in her hand while speaking. She knew her own abilities very well and would never do anything that would embarrass her.

"That's right, let's just save ourselves the trouble. The villagers don't like us educated youth anyway." Shen Nian thought about the villagers' attitude towards them and curled her lips. On the one hand, they looked down on them because they couldn't do any work, and on the other hand, many people tried every means to get benefits from them.

Shen Nian felt troubled when she thought about these things. Since Nanqiao stopped living in the village, she only interacted with the people in the educated youth camp, and basically didn't interact with the villagers. Even so, since the last time Nanqiao's parents came to the village, and until she got to know Nanqiao's family, many people had their eyes on her.

If Li Zhuoran hadn't been protecting him all this time, who knows what would have happened.

All sorts of messy things were running around in his mind, making Shen Nian a little upset. He didn't talk to Keke for a few more words and prepared to go to bed early.

Days passed by, and the day before departure, Li Zhuoran and Shen Nian arrived at Nanqiao's house in the afternoon. Both of them traveled lightly without bringing much.

"You've been back for half a month, right? Is this all you brought with you?" Nanqiao looked at the backpack-sized packages of the two people and felt a little unbelievable.

"I have everything I need to wear and use at home. I sent some things back a few days ago. There's no need to carry so many bags back now," Li Zhuoran said, waving his hand nonchalantly.

Others think that he is a parasite and that relying on his family for food is not a skill of his own, but he doesn't care. Let them say whatever they want. The skills of his family are also his skills. Others can't rely on them even if they want to.

"That's fine. It's not convenient to carry so much on the road."

They went to bed early that night, and walked to the station together the next morning. Sheng Yanchuan carefully stayed by Nanqiao's side until he sat safely on the berth, and then he secretly relaxed.

Their compartment had four seats, Nanqiao and Sheng Yanchuan were on the lower bunk, Chen Nian was on the upper bunk, and Taohua was on the other upper bunk.

Nanqiao wanted Chen Nian to sleep on the lower bunk, but Chen Nian refused to do so. If she slept on the lower bunk, Sheng Yanchuan would have to sleep on the upper bunk. He had to take care of Qiaoqiao, and it would be inconvenient for him to climb up and down. Besides, if she was on the lower bunk, it would be inconvenient for Sheng Yanchuan to do anything. So he decided to stay on the upper bunk since he had nothing to do.

"Qiaoqiao, I'm going to catch up on some sleep. Call me if you need anything." Shen Nian began to feel drowsy as she climbed to the upper bunk. She peeked out from the upper bunk at Sheng Yanchuan who was making the bed for Nanqiao and Nanqiao who was sitting on the side waiting, and yawned.

"Go to sleep. I'll call you at lunch time." Nanqiao looked up at her and answered.

After Sheng Yanchuan had prepared the bed, Nanqiao sat at the table to read a book and helped Taohua with her homework.

Sheng Yanchuan sat in front of Nanqiao and let her lean on him.

After sitting for a while, Li Zhuoran came over and said, "Your environment is really good. The inspection at the entrance of the carriage is so strict. If it weren't for my wit, I wouldn't be able to get in."

Nanqiao looked at Li Zhuoran sitting on Sheng Yanchuan's bunk, closed the book and asked, "What's your clever method? Tell me about it."

"At that time, I relied on my temperament and handsome face."

Li Zhuoran even touched his hair when he said this.

Chen Nian, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, poked his head out and laughed, "Temperament, what temperament? Just tell me, did you flirt with that girl again?"

"Just sleep and don't bother talking. What do you mean by flirting? I'm just chatting with my revolutionary comrades about the future of our country!" Li Zhuoran said unhappily as he looked at the head that popped out from the upper bunk.

"Oh, Comrade Li, I never knew you had such a broad mind!"

"Of course not. I brought some playing cards. Don't fall asleep. Come down and play." Li Zhuoran stopped arguing with her and took out a deck of old playing cards from his pocket and played with Shen Nian.

"Right away." Shen Nian's eyes lit up instantly when he looked at the poker cards. He responded and hurriedly climbed out of bed.

It was true that I felt groggy after waking up early, and it was also true that I didn't want to disturb Sheng Yanchuan and Nanqiao, so I could only lie on the bed and sleep. Of course, I couldn't miss the fun at this time.

"Qiaoqiao, do you want to play for a while?" After thinking for a while, he looked at Nanqiao eagerly.

"Let's play, but you have to tell me the rules." Nanqiao looked at Shen Nian's starry eyes and put the book in his hand aside.

"Then let's do it here." Seeing Nanqiao wanted to play, Sheng Yanchuan consciously made some space on his bunk to place the cards.

Taohua saw that they were going to play cards. Although she wanted to join in the fun, she thought that she still had a lot of homework to do, so she stopped thinking and started to do her homework seriously. After all, between playing cards and playing in the Shanghai market, she chose the Shanghai market!

In the following time, apart from eating and resting, they played cards and read books.

After Li Zhuoran got off the car, Nanqiao taught them how to play Landlord, which was also very enjoyable. This helped Taohua finish her homework smoothly.

The train arrived in Shanghai at the expected time

As the New Year approaches, Nan's parents are very busy at work, so only Nanbo came to pick us up this time.

As soon as Chen Nian got out of the station, she saw the tall Nan Bo standing next to the car. When they wrote letters before, they would say some ambiguous words to each other, but this was the first time they met after they confirmed their relationship. When Chen Nian saw the other person looking at her, she lowered her head shyly.
