"Qianshan, have you said hello to your Aunt Meilan? Are we really going to stay at her house?"
Mother Su felt very guilty when she thought about causing unrest in Tang Meilan's home because of her bringing her family to the Tang family.
"I've already said hello, grandma. You can rest assured. It was Aunt Meilan's request that I move in. She also said she'd ask you for advice if she has anything to do."
It's funny.
Upon hearing that Su Qianshan and his friends were going to stay in the provincial capital for one night, Tang Meilan threw a tantrum on the phone, demanding that they stay at her house, otherwise she would look for people to stay at each guesthouse.
"Well, you didn't tell me what time we should arrive. I was thinking of going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things first. I can't go empty-handed."
Although she hadn't seen Tang's mother for several years, her unreasonable behavior at that time was deeply imprinted in Su's mother's mind.
As Tang Meilan's family, they have to observe the etiquette.
Otherwise, he wouldn't know how Tang's mother slandered him behind his back.
"It doesn't matter whether I tell you or not. There's only one train a day from the provincial capital that passes through Yuanshan Town. Aunt Meilan knows better than us what time it leaves and arrives."
"Oh, that's even worse. I'd better find out what I brought with me first. What if I don't have time to buy anything? I should have brought some jewelry with me." Su's mother muttered.
"Lao Hei, do you have anything valuable on you? Lend it to me. My old stuff is all at Xiao Qing's place."
Su's mother sighed.
She didn't take any gold or silver jewelry, only cash.
"No, the most valuable things I have are the two walnuts in my hand. The other valuable things are also with Xiaoqing and his wife. I just brought some cash." Hei Ye spread his hands, indicating that he could not help.
This trip to the capital was a bit sudden, and he didn't have time to pack many of his things.
They could only pack them into a large sack and hand it over to Su Qing and the others for sorting.
"Forget it, forget it. I'll just give the child a big red envelope as a back-to-school gift."
Su's mother thought about it.
The New Year has passed, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed, and the second day of the second lunar month has also passed.
The only excuse left for giving out red envelopes is the start of school.
Amidst Su's mother's chatter, the several hours' drive passed unusually quickly.
The train slowly pulled into the station, and the conductor on the platform waved a small yellow flag in his hand.
“Woo…”
The train came to an abrupt stop.
After the conductor opened the door, he quickly hid aside and watched the people pushing and shoving each other.
"Grandma, I'll get off the car first, and then you pass the things to me through the window." Su Qianshan had quickly moved to the car door with his tall stature.
"Grandma, I want to go down too."
San Ya rubbed her belly gently and leaned half on the lower bunk.
I didn't control my mouth while in the car and accidentally ate too much.
"Wait a little longer, wait for your brother Qianshan to meet us at the window first, don't let your small body get squeezed by others."
Mother Su's gaze stayed on San Ya.
She couldn't understand why San Ya didn't gain weight even though she ate so much.
He has grown taller, but now he looks more like a bamboo pole.
"Grandma, you don't want me to climb out of the window, do you? It's very dangerous."
San Ya lay down lazily.
She really loves a life of eating, sleeping, and eating.
Unfortunately, this wonderful life ended when school started.
"Look at how many people are crowding at the door. It's much more dangerous than climbing through the window."
Those who want to get off the bus and those who want to get on the bus are not giving way to each other.
The conductor's face turned red as he blew the whistle in his mouth.
"Then you and Grandpa Hei come down with me. You two are too old to climb out the window." San Ya said mischievously.
"Get out of here, get out of here, get out of here quickly, I'm getting mad just looking at you."
Su's mother slung her small cloth bag over her shoulder, called out to Hei Ye and prepared to get off the car.
San Ya smiled victoriously.
Su's mother is always like this. She says words of disgust, but her body reacts very honestly.
Su Qianfan smiled helplessly and said, "Da Ya Qianya, you guys should get off together. I'll just pass the things to Brother Qianshan."
"Okay, brother. Let's go down first."
Arriving at the platform, Sanya began to look around. "Grandma, the provincial capital's train station seems to be just like that, just a little bigger. It's not much different from the one in Yuanshan Town."
"Don't run around. There are a lot of human traffickers at the station. They specifically target girls like you who look silly." Su's mother threatened.
"No, human traffickers like girls with big butts and who look strong and sturdy, because those girls can give birth to big fat boys and are good at taking care of the crops. As for me..."
San Ya looked down at herself and said, "I can't do it. I'm as skinny as a stick and look like I can't do anything. I can't sell it for a good price."
Daya burst out laughing and jokingly said, "You are quite self-aware."
"Go away, don't listen to your sister. You're incredibly valuable. You're the runner-up in the provincial liberal arts exam. Many people would beg for you. San Ya, a woman's value isn't in bearing children and taking care of the house. It can be reflected in those things, but it's not the only way. Do you understand?"
In the end, I was hurt by the He family's preference for boys over girls.
Children will inadvertently reveal the emotion that they are worthless because they are girls.
"Grandma, I know, but I'm not wrong. I'm just stating a common perception."
"Alright, alright, go check on your two brothers and see if they've packed their bags. I'm going to eat now. I'm starving."
The general social environment favors boys over girls.
Su's mother was powerless and unable to change the situation.
All she could do was encourage the Su girls and build their confidence.
"I understand, grandma."
