Zhao Xingyu helped her fetch water for washing and gave her a coat to wear.

He was still holding his wife's hand when he went out.

Captain Zhou watched the whole thing and was amazed. "I never realized before that Xiao Zhao dotes on his wife!"

"I feel that in Xiao Zhao's heart, his wife is probably just a fragile doll who needs to be looked after carefully." Sister Xu smiled, with a hint of perceptible envy in her tone.

Looking at the doting attitude, if you know, you would think he is serving a young lady. He really takes care of her in every way.

"Where do you think he learned it?"

Captain Zhou looked puzzled.

"I've never seen anyone behave like this." The attitude was like that of serving a princess, and Xiao Zhao seemed to be enjoying it.

Sister Xu slapped him on the head and said, "Can you learn this kind of thing?"

Those who are attentive can be taught, and those who are not attentive can be taught.

Captain Zhou thought of himself. If he treated his wife like this, he would definitely learn...

He shook his head in disgust: "You are still a good learner. How can a wife be so accustomed to it? If she has a child in the future, she will be so spoiled."

꺗 looked at his wife flatteringly and said, "Wife, don't learn this. You are very good as you are now."

Sister Xu rolled her eyes.

If possible, who wants to be the one being cared for?

"I got off a pirate ship."

Now that I have children and am old enough, I have to accept my fate.

"What do you mean by pirate ship? That's what you said when you were chasing me..."

"You old man, what are you talking about..."

The couple was joking around, and suddenly they started laughing.

The train is so quiet in the morning.

After Qi Sisi walked out, she found that it was actually noisier outside, with a bustling crowd of people and various local dialects.

The sleeper cars in the front are better, with fewer people.

When we arrived at the hard seat carriage, the entire carriage was packed with people and filled with all kinds of strange smells.

Not only were there all the seats available, but the connecting areas of the carriages were packed with people, and one had to wave their hands and ask others to make way.

Qi Sisi was tired of being squeezed. She didn't like physical contact with strangers, even if it was just touching, she felt uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Zhao Xingyu helped her block it.

Walking all the way to the restaurant in the middle, Qi Sisi felt a strange smell in her nose.

The smell of men's sweat, stinky feet, children's feces and urine, the smell of scallions and garlic, and the smell of cheap cleaning agents...

"Don't concentrate."

Zhao Xingyu hugged her lovingly and let her lean against him to avoid the smell around him.

The car had been in the car overnight, so it smelled a bit. Moreover, those people brought all kinds of food with them. The smells mixed together and fermented like a smell bomb.

He himself felt a little uncomfortable smelling it, let alone Qi Sisi who had never experienced such a situation since childhood.

Qi Sisi put her face against his chest and smelled the fragrance of the man's body. Only then did she feel her confused mind become a little clearer.

"If I had known, I would have come out with you."

She felt a little regretful.

Then she thought, if she came here by herself, it would only be this man, and she would know how hard he had worked, so she swallowed her words silently.

Forget it, since we are husband and wife, we must share the responsibility.

The flight attendant recognized Zhao Xingyu and his military uniform. As soon as they saw each other, they greeted each other with a smile and asked him if he was there to pick up his lunch box.

"Have you eaten?" Qi Sisi asked in a low voice.

Zhao Xingyu paused: "I can eat some more with you."

"Shall we buy some more?"

Qi Sisi looked around. The meals in the restaurant were all packed in lunch boxes. In addition, there were some braised dishes, such as braised chicken legs and smashed cucumbers.

Qi Sisi was very interested in chicken legs, so she ordered a smacked cucumber. When she saw cans of eight-treasure porridge and glass bottles of soda, she took two more.

"Thank you, comrade!"

Zhao Xingyu thanked the man.

I then explained to her the way back.

The meals they bought were actually the train's staff meals. They would make extra meals each time and sell them to passengers who actually purchased the meals.

Someone had come to the carriage to sell something earlier, so they came over to buy.

“They are quite business-minded!”

Qi Sisi was a little surprised.

On second thought, yes.

Except for those who bought sleeper berth tickets, most people who took hard seats brought their own dry food. Who would be willing to spend a lot of money to buy meals that were several times more expensive than cooking at home?

"yes."

Zhao Xingyu sighed.

Nowadays, there are talents in every field. Even the lunch boxes sold on trains are very sophisticated.

"But this lunch box is really expensive."

Who would believe that a serving of braised pork ribs costs four yuan?

The market price of a pound of spare ribs is just over 70 cents.

The price has increased five or six times.

And the slapped cucumber, anyone in the village would give it away for free if they asked, they spent two yuan to buy it......

I bought three dishes and some rice, and ate ten yuan in one meal.

Who can afford it?

"Oh, did you buy anything?"

Sister Xu was very surprised to see two people coming in carrying a bunch of things.

"Sister Xu, please have a soda!"

Qi Sisi handed the glass bottle to her.

Orange soda, 80 cents a bottle.

She knew the brand nearby, but thought it would taste bad, so she bought a few bottles.

The flight attendant also said that you can use the deposit and leave the bottle with them when they come back to collect it.

It saves me from making another trip.

"Why are you so generous?"

Sister Xu was caught off guard. As soon as she saw that the soda was already opened, she couldn't help but say the words of dissuasion.

Captain Zhou got a bottle of soda and was stunned.

"Sister Xu, you take care of us so well, I should treat you to a soda, don't be polite."

Qi Sisi advised, then quietly took a sip of the soda.

Ice-cold carbonated soda, so refreshing!

It feels like bubbles dancing on the tip of your tongue.

"Eat first!"

Zhao Xingyu took the soda from her hand and signaled with his eyes.

Qi Sisi puffed her cheeks and began to unpack her lunch box.

"Sister Xu, would you like to eat something together?"

Zhao Xingyu bought her roasted eggplant and braised pork ribs.

When Qi Sisi saw that there were no green vegetables, she bought an extra cucumber to balance the taste.

Now I see, I'm afraid it's all gone.

"Okay, I'll eat with you."

Sister Xu was polite and accompanied her.

Occasionally, I would pick up a cucumber with chopsticks, then have a bite of roasted eggplant, accompanied by bubbling soda, which felt quite refreshing.

"Is this how you men feel when you drink and eat? Not bad."

"If Sister Xu likes it, you can come to my house for a drink next time! Let's get a few women together and take care of them." Qi Sisi said with a smile.

Captain Zhou touched his nose and said nothing.

It was the first time for him to drink soda, it was so sweet!
