"Yumei, have you packed up? Brother Xiangguo invited us out for dinner." Zhang Jianguo came over and knocked on the door.

When Liu Yumei heard this, she remembered the braised pork that she had eaten at noon, which made her feel painful but delicious. Suddenly her face changed, and she held Xin Cheng to open the door and pulled Zhang Jianguo into the house.

"Eat! Eat! Eat! All you do all day is eat. Go ahead and shamelessly invite Brother Xiangguo to your place! Go back and thank him for his kindness. We brought some food with us, so we'll just have one meal tonight."

"Ah! But..."

"No buts. We're tired after sitting in the car all day. Let's rest early tonight." Liu Yumei put her godson down and rummaged through her bag for food. When she left home, Niu had prepared a lot of food for them, including steamed buns, eggs, and pickles.

He took six mixed flour steamed buns and half a jar of pickles, thought for a while, and then reluctantly took out four eggs and gave two to Zhang Jianguo, then took two lunch boxes of steamed buns to the stove to heat them up.

Her thoughts were simple. Ji Qinglan paid for the lunch, and the couple had already gotten a great deal. If Xiang Guo treated them again in the evening, and they went to eat again, how thick-skinned would they have to be to be shameless?

We must invite him back. Since we invited Xiang Guo, why not Ji Zhiqing?

Just a few dollars for a meal and a ticket, just beat her to death.

Ji Qinglan did not object. She also did not want to eat at the same table with her enemy, so she took out two boxes of biscuits she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative from her bag, gave one box to Zhang Jianguo, and kept the other box for them.

When Liu Yumei came back, she had only a lunch box and two steamed buns in her hand; in just a short while, the novelty of being in the city had worn off, and she was actually charged two cents for using the kitchen to heat up the steamed buns.

Really expensive.

Liu Yumei felt better when she saw the cookies Ji Qinglan placed on the table.

After dinner, it was completely dark. Zhang Jianguo and Xiang Guo came knocking on the door again. Xiang Guo invited them to watch a movie.

When Ji Qinglan heard this, she pretended to pack her things and refused: "I won't go. I still have to take care of the children. You guys go and have fun!"

No matter what Xiang Guo planned, she would never go.

She thought Zhang Jianguo and Liu Yumei could not resist the temptation, but unexpectedly, Liu Yumei also shook her head like a wave drum.

"It's late at night, so we won't go."

She thought it was still a matter of reciprocity and felt sorry for the money.

Since she didn't go, Zhang Jianguo naturally felt embarrassed to go.

Therefore, Xiang Guo's decision to invite people out again came to nothing.

In the dim corridor, Xiang Guo's eyes deepened.

Zhang Jianguo lay on the bed and fell asleep in a short while. Xiang Guo quietly got out of bed, opened the door quietly and went out. He came back half an hour later and lay on the bed.

"Brother Xiang Guo, where have you been?" Zhang Jianguo asked in a daze.

Xiang Guo's heart skipped a beat and he quickly replied, "I'm going to the bathroom."

"Oh!" Zhang Jianguo said, then turned over and went back to sleep.

The next day, Ji Qinglan and her husband got up before daybreak. Liu Yumei still helped them to get hot water for washing. This time, Ji Qinglan took out food first, six steamed buns, four eggs, and half a can of pickles. When she wanted to take some biscuits, Liu Yumei stopped her.

"Save this for the car." She felt very satisfied just looking at the white steamed buns without any other flour. There was no need for her to eat cakes.

After the four of them had packed up and checked out, they headed for the train station.

The train came from Heilongjiang Province and only stopped for half an hour to allow passengers to get on and off.

It was less than seven o'clock. With a long whistle, the train to the capital arrived at the station. They followed the rushing crowd into the station. Looking at the rushing crowd, the four of them couldn't help but run too.

The train was crowded with people, and there was all kinds of shouting and cursing. Xiang Guo was walking in front carrying two bags, and Zhang Jianguo was also carrying two bags and walking behind to protect Ji Qinglan and Liu Yumei as they squeezed to their seats.

Ji Qinglan carefully protected his son in his arms to prevent him from being squeezed, and when they finally arrived at the destination, all four of them were sweating.

"Ah! It's so crowded." Liu Yumei unhappily took off the grass on her and Ji Qinglan's heads. Just now, someone actually passed over their heads holding a chicken cage. They didn't know if there was chicken shit on their heads. There was also someone passing by them on the road carrying a large sack, which made her clothes dirty.

Fortunately, she went out and changed into good clothes, otherwise she would have been heartbroken.

So unlucky.

They bought sleeper tickets, and when they got their seats, they found that two men had taken their seats and were sleeping soundly on the beds.

"Hey, brother, you are taking our place." Zhang Jianguo grabbed the iron bar of the bed and shook the man awake rudely.

The two were shaken awake, and seeing Zhang Jianguo's ferocious face, they reluctantly stood up, "What are you arguing about? It's a big deal to have a seat!"

The two of them got out of the carriage and went somewhere else.

Xiang Guo explained to the three people: "They may have bought hard seats, and when they saw an empty seat, they sneaked in to take advantage. There are many people like this."

The bunks were divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Ji Qinglan chose the bottom one, Liu Yumei was in the middle, Zhang Jianguo was at the top, and Xiang Guo chose the one opposite. There were originally two people on either side of him, a grandparent and a young child.

Ji Qinglan put her son on the bed and let Xiao Hei out. Her mind was still recalling the scene of getting on the car just now. At a quick glance, she seemed to see Han Yuanjun.

"Qinglan, look, there's a car outside. It turns out that cars can drive into the platform!" Liu Yumei leaned against the window and watched a car passing by outside.

Several people looked in the direction of the sound, and Xiang Guo smiled and said, "That's a jeep. Judging from the license plate, it's military. Only government and military vehicles can come in directly."

Ji Qinglan took a look and saw the person getting off the car, his face changed. It was not Chen Wei.

Chen Wei's hands were covered by a piece of clothing in front. Xiao Yi and Yu Ting stood on his left and right, each holding one of his arms. Two tall men followed behind him, and the seven of them got into the car quickly.

Are they going to escort him back to the capital?

It’s only been three days, has Xiao Yi’s injury healed?

Soon, the roar of a train interrupted Ji Qinglan's doubts.

"Let's go." Liu Yumei exclaimed in surprise, trying her best to suppress her excitement.

Life! First time taking a train.

The train was not moving very fast and sometimes it would stop to let other people pass. At noon, Ji Qinglan took out some food and shared it with everyone. Xiang Guodu behaved very easily along the way and chatted with Zhang Jianguo from time to time. No one noticed anything unusual. Ji Qinglan was just on guard all the time.

Going back together is also a rare opportunity for her.

At noon, Ji Qinglan went out for a while on the pretext of getting some water. He looked around the carriages but did not see Han Yuanjun.

I just passed by a private room and made eye contact with the person coming out of it.

"Comrade Ji, why are you here?" Xiao Yi asked her.

Ji Qinglan nodded quickly, raised the hot water cup in his hand and said, "Comrade Xiao, hello, I'll get some water."

Through Xiao Yi, she immediately saw the room behind him. There were only five of them in the entire carriage. Chen Wei was handcuffed to the railing of the iron bed, lying on his back with his body tilted. He heard the sound and glanced at Ji Qinglan. He glared at him and immediately tried to sit up. The iron bed creaked with his movement.
