The educated youth was reborn and wanted to disappear, but he was locked into a military marriage.

Zhu Xiaomin stopped in her tracks, raised her head, and looked at the gray walls of the school. Feeling more disgusted, she lowered her head and hurried across the street to the train station.

The train tickets to the provincial capital had been sold out. Zhu Xiaomin bought a station ticket at around nine o'clock in the evening, so he found a guest house nearby, asked for a bed, went in and fell asleep.

At noon, she went out to eat and bought a roast chicken, some steamed buns and tea eggs, packed them in lunch boxes, and prepared to take them to the car to eat.

The train station was very small and shabby, and there wasn't much to visit nearby, so Zhu Xiaomin returned to the guest house.

She lived in a ten-person room, and after just a short while, new guests had moved into the room, including a woman with a child and two women who looked like cadres.

Seeing her come in, the two cadres just looked at her and were minding their own business eating from a lunch box. It seemed they were together.

The child was sleeping soundly on the bed, and the woman taking care of the child was nibbling on her buns, drinking water from a jar, and looking at Zhu Xiaomin several times.

Zhu Xiaomin took off her coat, took the washbasin to the water room to get water, and came back to take out soap and towels to wash herself.

Her journey was so dusty that she didn't bother to wash up when she got off the car in the morning. When she woke up from sleep, her whole face felt very blurry.

The woman taking care of the child looked at her and saw that she had finished washing her face, and finally said, "Sister, have you just come from out of town?"

Zhu Xiaomin paused and nodded: "Well, I just came here."

"What are you doing here? Visiting relatives?" the woman asked again.

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "That's right."

From then on, her family could only be regarded as relatives.

The woman saw that she was not enjoying the conversation, so she looked at her a few more times and stopped talking.

Zhu Xiaomin went to pour the wash water. When she came back, she still took off her shoes and lay back on the bed. She hugged her satchel under the quilt and put her cotton coat on the quilt.

She didn't have a seat on the fourteen-hour train ride to the provincial capital, which meant she had to stay up all night on the train and wouldn't be able to get off until around noon tomorrow, so she could get some more sleep now.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I lay down, a female cadre suddenly asked: "Are you from the countryside?"

Although she was wearing brand new corduroy and carrying a canvas bag, the cotton coat on top of the quilt had several patches.

Zhu Xiaomin didn't care and responded, shrinking into the quilt.

The female cadre asked, and then stopped asking. After the two finished eating, one went to wash the lunch box, and the other took the basin to fetch water.

The woman who was taking care of the child opened her eyes wide when she heard this question. When she saw the two people going out, she said with an "ouch", "Is the girl from the countryside? Why are you still staying in a guest house? The train station hall doesn't cost money."

Zhu Xiaomin closed her eyes and didn't move, nor did she say anything.

The woman came over with a jar, sat astride her bed, and asked, "People from the countryside are not allowed to enter the city casually. Do you have relatives in the city? Or did you come here quietly?"

Do you think she is blind?

Zhu Xiaomin sighed and had no choice but to say: "I have relatives."

The woman laughed and nudged her with her elbow, with a mysterious look on her face: "You went to the city to find a partner, right? If you find a city person, you can live in the city in the future. Isn't it better than in the countryside?"

Zhu Xiaomin responded perfunctorily and said nothing.

The woman said a few more words, but when she saw that she no longer responded, she murmured: "It's hard to get into the city now, and it's broad daylight. It's better to stroll on the street, maybe there will be some opportunities." He didn't see her yet. Reason, had no choice but to go back to his bed mumbling.

When I woke up from another nap, the two female cadres had already left, and the woman with the child was packing her things. Seeing her getting up, she hurriedly said, "Sister, I'm going out to have a meal, and you can help me take care of the child."

Zhu Xiaomin looked at her one-year-old child sleeping on the bed and shook her head: "I have to catch the train and will be leaving soon."

"I'm just going to have a meal and I'll be back soon." The woman said immediately.

Zhu Xiaomin shook her head, ignored her, and started packing her things.

Seeing that she didn't agree, the woman took her things and hurried out: "I'll be back soon, please, sister."

Zhu Xiaomin was startled, and hurriedly caught up to stop her, frowning: "Sister-in-law, I didn't promise to take care of your child. I have to catch the train myself, and I don't have time to wait for you."

The woman was annoyed: "Why are you like this? I just want you to take a look, and you don't have to do anything."

Zhu Xiaomin shook his head: "No."

The woman pushed her: "Why are you blocking me?"

Zhu Xiaomin frowned and took a step back to avoid it. The woman found an opening and immediately got past her and ran away quickly.

Who is this?

Zhu Xiaomin was furious and looked back at the child on the bed. After thinking about it, she put on her clothes, packed her things, went out to check out, and said to the administrator: "There is another child in that room, it should be the woman on that bed." left."

The administrator was surprised: "Why did you leave the child alone?" He hurriedly checked out for her and hurried in to take a look.

When Zhu Xiaomin came out, the originally lively streets were even more depressed. Many shops were closed and only a small state-owned restaurant was open. She went in and had a simple bowl of noodles before heading to the train station.

No matter what time it is, the train station is always the busiest time.

When Zhu Xiaomin entered the waiting hall of the train station, there was no place to sit, not even a place to stand. The smell of sweat mixed with the smell of low-quality tobacco filled the entire hall.

Zhu Xiaomin looked at the time. It was already half past seven. She grabbed her bag and squeezed through the crowd to go in. By the time she got to the ticket gate, she was already sweating. She hurriedly found a corner and stood against the wall with her bag in her arms.

After living in the previous life, from the previous trains to speeding up, to airplanes, to bullet trains, and high-speed rail, the convenience of transportation almost made her forget about the current situation of trains.

When she came, she bought her tickets one day in advance. Although it was still crowded, fortunately she had a young body and could withstand it.

Now she regrets a little, should she buy tomorrow's car, at least have a seat.

Just thinking about everything that happened when she returned home in the morning, her mood suddenly dropped. She didn't want to stay in this place for another hour. Now that she thought of the barren mountains, she felt even more intimate.

But if she doesn't come back here, will she go to the provincial capital?

Zhu Xiaomin thought blankly, and all of a sudden, his mind became a mess.

She wanted to hide away from the Lu family, but how could her own family be any better?

I stood like this for more than an hour. Although I was wearing thick clothes, my feet were already numb from the cold. I watched people coming and going in the waiting hall, and the ticket gate opened and closed. Finally, I heard the ticket inspector calling my train number. , Zhu Xiaomin quickly stood up straight, stamped her feet to relieve the numbness in her feet, and took out the ticket.

She followed the flow of people into the station, crossed several tracks, and got on the fourth platform. The crowd divided into two sides to find her own car. She had a standing ticket, so she didn't need to check the number. She just found a door with fewer people and got on.
