Chapter 179 Departure to the Station
Before leaving, Shen Shuyu went to the cowshed and said, "My train is at 3 pm. You can eat these food first. Don't save them. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your health."
Liang Jun held her hand and said, "Child, you must pay attention to safety. You must pay attention to safety."
At last, Yang Zhen didn't want his granddaughter to go on a long journey. He said, "Girl, you don't have to go on this long journey. It's not easy for them to find those things wherever they are."
"Grandpa, I want to go. I have never been far away from home at my age. I want to go out and take a look. Don't worry, I will be careful."
The tickets have been bought, so how could Shen Shuyu not go? If those things were safe in their original place, her grandfather, who is so cautious, would not ask her to move them.
Besides, she really wanted to know what her grandfather asked her to move!
Yang Zhen took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote down his address, phone number and name.
"If you encounter a difficult situation, you can find the person at the address."
Shen Shuyu put the note away and said, "Grandpa, Grandma Liang, I'm leaving."
Taotao followed reluctantly. He wanted to see his sister off, but was afraid of being seen by others, so the little guy went back to the cowshed and asked, "Grandpa and grandma, where is my sister going?"
"My sister is going back to our old home and will be back in a few days."
Taotao hugged his grandmother's legs and said, "Grandma, I want to go home. I miss my parents."
"Be good, we will go back one day and see your parents."
The couple stood at the door of the cowshed. Liang Jun felt a little uneasy. "Old Yang, I always feel uneasy."
"Shu Yu girl is fine, don't think too much."
Old Mrs. Shen had packed Shen Shuyu's clothes long ago. She would be sitting on the train for several days, so Old Mrs. Shen and her daughter prepared food in the kitchen for Shen Shuyu to take on the train.
"Grandma, Second Aunt, just make me two pancakes. You don't need to do anything else. There are also food for sale in the car."
"The food sold on the bus is not as delicious as the food at home. Grandma and your second aunt will prepare it for you. You can eat it whenever you want when you are hungry."
The two worked for more than an hour, baking 20 egg pancakes, boiling 10 eggs, frying garlic bacon, hot and sour potato shreds, steaming two bowls of rice, and a pot of steamed buns.
Second Aunt Shen had packed everything for her eldest niece, a big bag full of food. Shen Shuyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Her grandmother and second aunt were really worried that she would be hungry in the car. With so much food, she could eat for more than a week.
Old Lady Shen warned her granddaughter, "My dear, the train is very chaotic, with many thieves and robbers. You have to take good care of your things.
If someone comes up to you and tries to get close to you, just pretend to be asleep and ignore her. Some people look honest, but they are actually evil at heart......"
Old Mrs. Shen had never been far away, nor had she ever taken a train. Every time Shen Xiangbei came back, he would tell his father and mother about what happened outside, including what to pay attention to when taking a train, how mixed the people on the train were, how kidnappers kidnapped people, how pickpockets stole your things without you noticing,
"My dear, did you remember what grandma just said?"
Shen Shuyu listened carefully to what her grandma said, "Grandma, I remembered every word you just said. I will be careful when I go out."
Shen Chunling took out a pair of pants and said, "Shu Yu, change into these pants. Second Auntie sewed a few more pockets for you. Put your money in them."
Shen Shuyu picked up the pants and took a look. Hmm, her second aunt had sewn several pockets on the inside of the pants.
Not only that, Old Lady Shen also sewed two pockets on her underwear. Her grandmother asked her for two hundred yuan last night, and the money had been sewed into the underwear by Old Lady Shen. When Shen Shuyu wanted to take the money out, she had to use scissors to cut the thread on the underwear.
The corners of Shen Shuyu's mouth twitched, and she went back to the room to change her underwear and pants as her grandmother and second aunt asked.
Shen Erzhu had already prepared the letter of introduction for her. Old Shen took it back. Old Mrs. Shen took it, read it, folded it, and
"My dear, put the letter of introduction in the pocket inside your pants so it won't get lost easily."
If you don't have a letter of introduction these days, you can't go anywhere. If the letter of introduction is lost, it will be very troublesome. Grandma Shen was afraid that her eldest granddaughter would accidentally lose it, so she felt relieved only after seeing her eldest granddaughter put the letter of introduction into her trouser pocket.
Old Man Shen went back to the house to get his precious pipe and asked, "My dear, have you packed your things? It's almost time to leave."
"it is good."
Zhang Cuicui and Li Caixia came out and said, "Shu Yu, if you see any nice fabrics in Harbin, bring us ten feet of them. We will pay you when you come back."
The eldest and second sisters-in-law asked Shen Shuyu to bring some cloth, and Liu Pandi also said, "Shuyu, bring ten feet of cloth for the third aunt as well. It should be something nice. If it's not nice, don't bring it."
Yang Fangfang's younger brother is getting married next month, and she wants to give him and his wife a red pillowcase. She grabbed the corner of her clothes and prepared herself for a while before saying, "Shu Yu, if you see a red pillowcase, can you bring one back for my sister-in-law?"
Shen Shuyu nodded, "Okay."
Shen Shuyu will be away for several days. Gu Jiandong has been sticking to Shen Shuyu all day. If he wasn't too big, Gu Jiandong would have wanted to hang himself on Shen Shuyu.
He, Bai Luobo and the dog stayed by Shen Shuyu's side like glue,
Shen Shuyu went back to the house and took out ten picture books and a box of glass marbles.
"Gu Jiandong, you have to sleep well even when I'm not home. Can you read comic books to soothe yourself to sleep?"
Gu Jiandong, the clingy wolfdog, put his chin on Shen Shuyu's shoulder and rubbed it, his eyes wet, "Okay."
"When will you be back?"
"I'll be back once you've lost this box of marbles."
The big wolf dog nodded obediently, "Then remember to come back, I'll wait for you at home."
She didn't have to go to work, and there was not much to do at home. It was the first time Shen Shuyu went on a long trip, and Old Man Shen, Old Lady Shen, and Shen Chunling all had to send her to the station.
Since one bicycle could not accommodate so many people, Mrs. Shen asked her eldest son to borrow a bullock cart from the brigade.
Uncle Shen sat in the front driving the ox cart, Shen Shuyu and the others sat in the back. Gu Jiandong was particularly clingy today.
He kept holding onto Shen Shuyu's arm and refused to let go. Bai Luobo nestled in Shen Shuyu's arms. Both the man and the dog were clingy.
Shen Shuyu touched Gu Jiandong's head, stroked Bai Luobo's dog's head, and chatted and laughed with her grandparents all the way to the station.
Shen Shuyu didn't bring much with him, just a package and a cloth bag, very light.
They arrived early, and the bus had not arrived yet, so they had to wait at the station for half an hour. There were no extra seats at the station, so they had to stand.
The station was crowded with people. Gu Jiandong was afraid of getting separated from Shen Shuyu, so he held onto her clothes tightly.
Shen Shuyu was leaving. The child was in a bad mood. Tears welled up in her eyes and her mouth was pouted.
He looked like he had to go out to work for a living, leaving his young son at home as a left-behind child. The child begged her not to leave, but she pushed her son away and got in the car...
