At this point, Chen Yunyun burst into tears at just the right moment, covering her face with her hands, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably, her body swaying precariously, looking utterly miserable.
“I didn’t believe it, so I took my younger brother and the children with me to go find my husband.”
“My younger brother felt sorry for me raising the child alone and it was too hard for me, so he spent extra money to buy a soft sleeper ticket. It was too late to return it, so I had to get on the train first.”
"But as soon as we got on the train, we saw that our carriage was full of this whole family."
“I am a widow with an orphan, and I am with my younger brother from my maternal family. How could I possibly be a match for this group of people? So I politely asked them to give me their seats.”
“This old woman said I was cursing her, and that the bunk beds upstairs belonged to them.”
"She said her son was a full-time employee at the steel plant and was very strong, and that I should be sensible and give up my position to them."

At this point, Chen Yunyun was already sobbing uncontrollably, leaning weakly on her younger brother Rong Yan's shoulder, her body convulsing, clearly heartbroken.
"She's talking nonsense! Don't believe her! I'm an old woman, do you think I would lie to everyone?" The old woman raised her voice as she saw things were getting out of hand.
Her son and daughter-in-law glared fiercely at Chen Yunyun, especially her son, who was burly and strong; when he got angry, the fat on his face trembled.
The people in the carriage, including the train attendants, looked at the pitiful woman on their left, sobbing uncontrollably and swaying precariously, and then at the large, menacing-looking family on their right.
The contrast is simply too obvious.
