1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 142 Journey

Meng Shulan was not afraid of those three people, she just didn't want to cause trouble.

The city's train station is not located in the city center, but on the edge of the city. It takes half an hour to take a bus from here.

They had to go there early to check out the situation and buy the tickets. They had no time to waste here.

Outside the station restroom.

The two brothers of the Ye family had been standing under the tree for a while, but they didn't see the two sisters of the Meng family come out.

Ye Feng said, "I hope we won't be discovered."

Ye Gaoshan didn't know either.

The two brothers exchanged glances and retreated to a nearby wall.

Jose was standing there, watching the brothers' movements from a distance.

"Why aren't you two watching?"

Seeing the two of them coming back, Jose-kun became a little anxious.

Ye Feng said, "He hasn't come out since he went in. Why don't you go and take a look?"

"I'll go and see?" Jose was speechless. "If I go in, won't it be exposed?"

"That……"

The Ye brothers were somewhat helpless, "What should we do now?"

Jose: "Are you sure you didn't lose me?"

Ye Feng: "No, I saw them go into the bathroom."

Jose frowned and said, "In that case, just keep watching." She didn't believe that the two men could stay in the toilet for a whole day.

Seeing how persistent she was, the two Ye brothers decided to go over and watch her for a while.

But when the three of them turned around, they saw four station security personnel in work clothes coming over and questioning them directly.

"What do you do? Do you have a letter of introduction?"

The three of them were doing something sneaky, and when they were questioned, they immediately panicked.

"Now, don't you need a letter of introduction?"

Jose explained guiltily.

The other party said, "Others don't want you, but your whereabouts are suspicious, so we need to clarify the situation. No letter of introduction? Then go sit in the office and register."

"Hey, comrade, there's no need. Let's just go into town and do some shopping!"

Jose doesn't want to go. It's embarrassing just thinking about it.

The other party didn't listen to her. Seeing that the three people didn't listen, he surrounded them and started to pull them away.

There's nothing I can do now. I can't just force them to do it. It would be even worse if we end up at the police station.

The three of them were quickly taken away while explaining along the way.

In the restroom, Meng Changli came out to take a look. Seeing that everyone had left, she covered her mouth and laughed, then nodded to her sister.

Meng Shulan knew that the task was accomplished and thanked the cleaning lady.

The aunt said generously, "It's a small matter. Two grown men were sneaking around outside the toilet. You can tell at a glance that they're not good people. Don't be polite. I'm just getting rid of a nuisance for the people."

After leaving the bus station, the two sisters could finally wait for the bus with peace of mind.

Along the way, Meng Changli was still laughing at the Ye brothers and He Saijun.

"Your idea is the best. Those three people were questioned. Even if nothing was found, it would still take an hour or two. It's a waste of time."

Meng Shulan took the opportunity to say: "If you want revenge, you not only have to rely on yourself, but also find ways to find others to help you. Many things will become twice as effective with half the effort."

Meng Changli smiled, "You're right, I learned it." The two got on the bus and took more than half an hour to get to the train station.

For this trip, Meng Changli made a special trip to the town office to get a letter of introduction, but they didn't even look at it when she bought the ticket. At present, the situation outside has been completely relaxed.

The bus left at around 3:00 p.m., and after buying the tickets, they walked around the station and bought some food.

In fact, I had already brought a dozen boiled eggs, pickles and big steamed buns when I traveled, but when I saw that they were selling fried cakes here, I ordered a few more.

The people selling fried cakes are also private business owners. They provide plenty of ingredients and the price is affordable.

The business environment in the city is much better than in the town. There are many stalls and shops near the station alone. You can find whatever you want to buy. And it seems that these people have been open for some time rather than recently.

At noon, the two sisters had a bowl of noodles in a nearby restaurant, and then waited in the waiting hall for the bus to depart.

The train was a little late and arrived about ten minutes later.

Because it is a city railway station, there are quite a lot of people, but the overall passenger flow is not large, and everyone who buys a ticket has a seat.

The train environment in this era is definitely not as good as in later generations. As soon as you get on, you can smell a smell. I can’t tell what it is. It’s unique to green-skinned trains.

Fortunately, it is winter now, otherwise it would be even worse if it were summer.

After the two sisters put their things down and sat down, Meng Changli was still saying that she should have gritted her teeth and bought a sleeper berth earlier. It was such a long journey and she didn't mind the smell, but she felt sorry for her younger sister.

Meng Shulan laughed, "Sister, do you think you can buy sleeper tickets casually?"

In the past two years, only staff members with certificates can buy sleeper berths and airplane tickets, and they are not open to the general public at all.

Meng Changli really didn't know, and was at a loss when she heard it.

The train ride lasted nearly thirty hours. At the beginning, the two of them were quite energetic and sat down to read.

By the next day, Meng Changli could no longer bear it. She felt her feet were swollen, and after dinner she said she wanted to take a walk in the carriage.

Meng Shulan was so focused on her studies that she didn't pay any attention to her sister. It was not until it was time for dinner that she realized her sister had been out for several hours and had not returned.

Meng Shulan panicked a little, and the older brother next to her said, "He came back, took a notebook and a pen, and left again. He saw you were studying, so he didn't disturb you."

As the two were talking, Meng Changli just came back.

When Meng Shulan asked, she found out that she had met an art teacher in the carriage in front and went to learn painting from him.

"Shulan, look, this is what I drew following the teacher. The teacher said this is called a sketch."

Meng Changli was so excited as she flipped through her draft book, as if she had discovered a new world.

Meng Shulan carefully looked at her sister's work. There were more than a dozen pictures, all of which were of passengers of various shapes on the train.

Meng Shulan worked in a cultural center in her previous life and had seen many works of art, so she naturally knew about sketching.

It seems that the other party is really a teacher.

Meng Changli felt a little regretful because the other party had already gotten off the car.

"Shulan, the teacher told me earlier that as long as you're interested, you can find opportunities to learn, regardless of age or status. I think he's right, but for someone like me, where can I go to learn? Should I just find someone to be my disciple?"

Meng Shulan covered her mouth and laughed, "Sister, don't bother. When you're free, I'll help you find a school. We don't need to get a diploma or take exams. We can just pay for classes. Some schools will accept us during winter and summer vacations, or at night."

With the opening up of society, some schools, in order to generate income, use their connections to get others to accept students.

Meng Changli: "Really?"

Meng Shulan: "Of course it's true. Let's focus on our careers first. When we have time and money, we can go back to school."

Meng Changli nodded and said, "Okay." Another goal of hers appeared, and she would work hard for it.

We arrived at Nancheng at around four in the morning of the next day.

The two sisters followed the crowd to get off the train, checked their tickets, and came to the large square outside the train station.
