Jiang Zhou was really stumped by the question. After thinking for a while, he said, "That must be a huge blow that I can't handle on my own. Only when a person encounters such a situation will they physically isolate themselves from all past connections."

Dong Yuehe was confused by what she heard. She drank a mouthful of porridge, ate a bite of pickled vegetables, and said, "You two are playing charades so early in the morning. Yuan Yuan, are you going on a business trip to the city? I have packed your clothes for you, and I have taken out your suitcase and put them on the sofa. You can check it yourself later."

Yuan Yuan hurriedly said: "Okay, okay. Thank you, teacher."

She was really grateful to Dong Yuehe. In name they were teacher and student, but in reality, Dong Yuehe did what a mother should do better than her biological mother.

……

"Teacher, this rattan box of yours can be put in a museum, right?"

"Oh, I just added the lock, it works! And the rattan box is pressure-resistant and shock-absorbing! It's safe to put things in it! Touch it, it's smooth and slippery, without any burrs at all!"

"But I still think it can go into a museum. Teacher, is this the box you used when you were a child?"

"Yes. And Jiang Zhou's grandfather also used it when he went to the provincial capital to study in high school!"

Yuan Yuan: “…”

Jiang Zhou, who was walking around the house doing housework, walked towards the kitchen with a jar of freshly picked beans in his arms. He said, "Mom, Yuan Yuan is right. This box can really be put in a museum. It's bigger than the three of us combined!"

Dong Yuehe: “…”

In the end, Yuan Yuan still used this wicker suitcase. She liked this quaint and vintage thing very much.

This time, because I would be away for a long time, I couldn't borrow a car, so I had to take the bus to the city.

Jiang Zhou carried his own backpack and helped Yuan Yuan carry the suitcase. He looked fine despite carrying so many things. Yuan Yuan looked at his energetic appearance and couldn't help but smile, "Come, I'll put a hat on you."

She stood on tiptoe and put the men's hat that she had prepared long ago on Jiang Zhou.

Jiang Zhou cooperated with her and was as obedient as a big, smooth-haired puppy.

The two walked halfway through Jiangtun Town before arriving at the station. They crossed the station square filled with vendors, and with Jiang Zhou leading the way, Yuan Yuan was protected and unharmed. In return, she sat down in the waiting room, opened her lunch box, and took out the scones she had prepared to feed Jiang Zhou.

Jiang Zhou ate a piece and said, "Are the cookies different this time?"

Yuan Yuan said: "This is not a biscuit, this is called a scone. You don't need to knead the dough or beat it. It's easier to make and can last longer than biscuits. I'll make some and bring them over."

She was still thinking about her oven. It would be great if she could bring it over. It would be very useful to her.

Forget it, I'll think of a way later. She comforted herself that she was determined to win Professor Wang. She kept thinking over the details of the plan, and her head gradually became heavy. She fell asleep on Jiang Zhou's shoulder.

She didn't know how much time had passed before Jiang Zhou gently pushed her and said, "The car is here, get in."

Yuan Yuan woke up with a start. Her mind was awake but her body was still heavy. Jiang Zhou pulled her up, holding her with one hand and her suitcase with the other. He carried his own backpack and walked to the entrance of the station in the direction of the crowd. It was cold outside, but the waiting room was so hot that steam rose from everyone's head. Yuan Yuan woke up and was dizzy again. The station staff stood at the exit with a loud speaker and repeated: "To the Z City Bus Terminal, the bus with the last number 371 has arrived. Passengers, please take your carry-on luggage and line up in an orderly manner to get on the bus!"

After reading two sentences, I have to interrupt: "Hey! Don't push! Don't push!!"

Yuan Yuan was almost dying. She felt a sudden heaviness on her shoulders. Jiang Zhou put his arm around her shoulders. The unique warm fragrance from his body diluted the strange smell around her. She felt refreshed. Jiang Zhou urged her in a low voice, "Go, go."

They lined up, passed through the entrance, and got on the bus.

Yuan Yuan spent the four and a half hour journey in a half-awake state. Someone was playing a trick on the bus, and Jiang Zhou covered her eyes to prevent her from seeing it. Someone came forward and wanted to be fooled, and Jiang Zhou shouted, "Get lost!"

The two swindlers saw that their chance of success had been taken away, so they immediately gave up. The one who was acting as a shill stuck out his neck and said, "Little brother, stop meddling in other people's business!"

Jiang Zhou said calmly, "They are all scammers. It's OK if I don't see them, but if I see them, I have to take care of them."

Toer stepped forward and said, "You are taking a long-distance bus with your girlfriend. Do you want to be a hero in front of her? Do you know that we are here to protect you?"

The peasant woman who was about to join the gambling saw that the situation was not good, so she returned to her seat with her small money bag in her hand, lowered her head and kept silent. The swindler's plan was ruined, and his attention was focused on Jiang Zhou. The main swindler followed behind the child, opened his coat, revealing the cold light of the knife tip inside, and deliberately waved it in front of Jiang Zhou's eyes.

Jiang Zhou frowned: "You guys are committing fraud, and you think it's justified? Do you really think there is no law?"

Toer said: "The law? On this road, we two brothers are the law!"

Yuan Yuan reached out to pull Jiang Zhou, and Jiang Zhou lowered his eyes and looked at her: "Don't be afraid. I have the score."

Tou'er grinned and said, "Look, look, your beautiful girlfriend is sensible. Little girl, she is fair and tender like a big star. Your husband delayed our fortune tonight, why don't you play with us, buddy, for the sake of brother-in-law, I won't pursue it?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch Yuan Yuan's face. Yuan Yuan subconsciously shrank back, but Jiang Zhou had already grabbed the tout's dirty hands. The tout tried his best to shrink back, his face turned purple and red, veins on his forearms bulged, but he did not move at all.

Jiang Zhou's face was dark and extremely scary.

The main liar panicked, pulled out a small dagger and stabbed it towards Jiang Zhou's face. Jiang Zhou quickly pulled it back, and Tuo'er screamed miserably. The main liar's dagger sank deeply into Tuo'er's forearm, leaving only the handle exposed. My goodness, the blood stopped flowing. The main liar retreated, and the tip of the dagger got stuck in the bone gap. Jiang Zhou pushed his fist upward with all his strength, hitting Tuo'er's wrist, and pushing out the dagger stuck in the bone gap.

"Puff--" blood spurted out, splashing the main liar's face. The main liar's black eyeballs pierced his head and he fainted. The tor went crazy. Jiang Zhou stood up and grabbed him by the collar, "Driver, stop the car!"

The driver pulled over and stopped the car. Jiang Zhou threw the two scammers out of the car and turned to the driver and said, "These two passengers suddenly became ill. One fainted and the other was injured. Let's let him go to the hospital for treatment. Is that okay?"

The dim driver light on the driving seat made the driver's face look pale and ugly, and he nodded reluctantly.

Jiang Zhou returned to his seat, put his coat on himself, and closed his eyes to rest.
