After some exercise, Tang Meilan was completely sober.
After a simple wipe, she went to the kitchen to make breakfast for Su's mother and the others.
Because we had to catch the earliest train, everyone got up one after another around six o'clock.
"Godmother, there's hot water in the pot. Don't wash directly with well water. It's too cold. Once you're done washing, we'll have dinner."
"Why are you up so early?"
Steam was coming out of the big pots and small stoves, and the steamed buns were ready.
Two large steamed buns were just out of the pot, and Tang Meilan immediately washed the pot and prepared lunch.
"It's getting late, godmother. I've prepared lunch for you. If you're hungry, ask Qianshan Qianfan to get some hot water to heat up your lunch boxes."
Only then did Su's mother notice that there were seven aluminum lunch boxes neatly arranged on the stove.
Judging from how new it is, Tang Meilan probably bought it specially for them.
"Why bother with all that? There are lunch boxes for sale on the train. We can just grab a few bites."
Besides, they don’t have boxed lunches every day. They also have dried meat, preserved fruits and other snacks, which can last for one or two meals at the very least.
Su's mother doesn't want to trouble others for things that can be solved with money.
"How can the food outside compare to what we have at home? I'm just doing this for the sake of convenience, so I won't have to worry about anything. I'll just make some fried rice with some Chinese sausage, braised pork, and some cabbage. Is that okay with you?"
"Okay, that's great. I'll go get some water first, and then I'll come and help you."
Looking at the brightly colored braised pork, Su's mother no longer refused.
Tang Meilan and Su Qing recognized each other as sisters and called her godmother, so she was also her own daughter. It was reasonable for her daughter to prepare food for her when she was going on a long journey.
"Okay, you can give me some guidance."
As Tang Meilan went to the Su family more often, her requirements for food became much higher.
From the previous pursuit of just being cooked through to the current pursuit of color, aroma and taste.
"Come on, I'm only half-baked and can barely swallow it."
She has been a hands-off boss for a long time, and the food she cooks now may not be as delicious as San Ya's.
"Godmother, you are too modest. If I were half as good as you, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
If she could learn Su's mother's cooking skills, she would never have to worry about food and clothing if she worked harder.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to be poor anymore, I'm going to get some water."
Su's mother was in a good mood.
There wasn't much sadness of parting on his face.
A group of people finished their breakfast with smiles on their faces.
At the station~
Tang Ci stuffed a handful of change into the ticket inspector's hand.
"Brother, let's go to the platform to see our relatives off. We'll be leaving soon."
The ticket inspector looked up and asked, "How many people are going in to see you off?"
"Four, the four of us."
Tang Ci pointed at his family of four.
The ticket inspector checked the size and thickness of the bill and said, "Okay, go ahead."
"Okay, thank you, big brother. Let me smoke." Tang Ci handed a cigarette to the vote monitor and stuffed another pack into his pocket.
The ticket inspector expressionlessly opened the employee passage and said, "I see there are so many of you with so much luggage. Walking together will easily cause a traffic jam. Please go this way individually."
"That's so thoughtful, big brother. I'll write you a letter of praise later."
Having worked in the system for a few years, Tang Ci is well aware of the principle that courtesy is never a problem.
Look, isn’t this making you look familiar to the ticket inspector?
"Wait a minute, I have two meal tickets that expire tomorrow. Let me give them to you."
Meal tickets are issued free of charge to staff at the station, three per day.
The two meal tickets were like drizzle to him.
Cigarettes are worth much more than meal tickets.
"Hurry up, hurry up, don't get stuck here."
There were many people in Che and Han, and everyone was watching closely, so both sides had to be very careful about their words and actions.
Tang Ci didn't stay for long. He led everyone through the employee passage and got directly into the car.
"This is the carriage. I'll put your luggage there first."
"The lunch boxes are all in this bag. Remember to heat them up before eating."
"If you don't have enough to eat, use your meal ticket, otherwise it will expire tomorrow."
"Steamed buns are longer-lasting, so I packed more."
"This bag also contains some fruit drinks, sunflower seeds, etc., which can help me kill time when I get bored on the road."
"Remember to eat your meal early, don't leave it out for too long."
"Call us when you get there to let us know you're safe."
Tang Meilan cooked the meal and Tang Ci cleaned up the things.
I saw him very patiently telling Su's mother and others the location of the things.
"I understand. You and Meilan have to be good to each other. It's inevitable that you will have arguments in life. Talk it out and it will be over. Don't act impulsively.
Meilan, you too, if you can get along with someone, stay with them, if you can't, just ignore them. Out of sight, out of mind. Don't force yourself. If the sky falls, we'll hold it up for you. All you have to do is wait for us to back you up."
"Yes, godmother, I will listen to you." Tang Meilan agreed obediently.
She knew that Su's mother was talking about her on the surface, but was actually criticizing Tang Ci.
Tang Ci's goodness is his business, and Tang Meilan can respond generously and give to each other, but this cannot be exchanged for Tang's mother's bad behavior.
Tang Ci also understood and assured Su's mother, "Don't worry, godmother, I won't force Meilan to do anything she doesn't like, even if it's my mother's request. I will do what I want to be filial to her, but I won't be a foolish filial piety and ignore Meilan's feelings."
Su's mother nodded.
"Okay, we're ready to go. Go slowly when you get off."
The train is about to start.
The conductor on the platform kept urging the people who were seeing them off to leave quickly.
"Have a safe journey."
Wave goodbye.
The train leaves the platform.
The fate of several people is like a bow and arrow drawn from its sheath, heading towards different trajectories.
The other side~
Tang Meilan returned home and felt very uncomfortable when she saw the empty house.
