Chapter 6 The Little Girl on the Train

Middle-aged people are a bit arrogant.

Anyone who stands in her way will be scolded by her.

"If you despise greenskins, just take a plane! What's the name?"

Most people may just tolerate him, but there are also those who can’t tolerate him and directly confront him.

Tang Deshang was furious, "You will be a poor guy for the rest of your life."

I cursed in Shanghainese, but no one could understand me.

He went to his seat cursing and sat down, and saw the woman next to him holding a child.

"Be careful, don't get the soup on me. This suit I'm wearing is very expensive.

I can’t afford to pay for it.”

The woman is also a simple and down-to-earth worker, and she is always friendly when she goes out.

"Sorry, sorry. I'll be careful."

The man sitting opposite him was also smiling apologetically.

Tang Deshang patted his high-end suit with a look of disdain, as if he were a big boss.

She still held her bag tightly in her hand. Even though her palms were sweating, she was reluctant to let go.

It looks bulgy, and I'm curious about what's inside.

Late at night.

At two or three in the morning, few people can survive.

Everyone in the carriage fell asleep.

Occasionally one or two people would go to the toilet to smoke.

Or when the bus arrives at a station, people get on and off the bus.

There were quite a few people getting on and off the bus.

They were all brought onto the train in large and small bags.

When we arrive at a station, we have to stop for at least twenty minutes.

In order to buy tickets, many people are willing to take the early morning train.

I arrived at the station a day early to buy tickets.

If the tickets are sold out, you will have to wait another day.

It was impossible to sleep in the hotel, so we had to sleep on the floor in the waiting hall.

I slept on the ground, leaning against the luggage I brought.

Eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are all done here, and there is a toilet next to it.

Once people get on the bus, they are likely to disturb those who are sleeping on the bus.

It's impossible to get a good and peaceful sleep on the train.

Every time Tang Deshang woke up, he would subconsciously touch the bag in his hand.

"Okay, the rope is still there."

To prevent others from stealing things in his briefcase, he tied it with a small rope.

Anyone who wants to open it must untie the rope.

And every few hours, he would go to the bathroom.

The two young men who had disgusted him were no longer there.

Anyone who looked young or had cunning eyes made him feel uncomfortable.

"These poor people will just be low-level workers even if they come to Shanghai."

"I'm not the same kind of person as you guys once I get to Shanghai."

Tang Deshang waited at the toilet door for a long time, and only reopened it after the train left the station.

It is impossible to let people go to the toilet at the station.

After entering the toilet, he untied the rope outside skillfully and took out stacks of banknotes.

They are all 100-yuan notes. Since this is the fourth set, the color of the 100-yuan bills is still that gray-green.

It was not until 1997 that it stopped circulating, and the fifth set we are familiar with followed.

Tang Deshang's bag was filled with such hundred-dollar bills, piled up in piles.

They're all new and look like they just came out of a bank printing machine.

"With this money, I will live a good life in Shanghai."

"You poor fellows, you can't earn this much money even if you work all your life."

I counted them to make sure there was not one missing.

Only then did he put the briefcase back in its original state with satisfaction.

As soon as he walked out, he met the young man he hated.

Unexpectedly, Liu Lang spoke first, not politely at all, "Move aside! I need to go to the toilet."

This person had scolded him before, and he held a grudge. "What are you yelling about, you uneducated thing."

Tang Deshang always curses in Shanghainese, bullying outsiders who can't understand it.

Liu Lang knew that the other party was scolding him, "Just wait. Don't give me a chance."

While Tang Deshang was walking away with his back to him, he took a look at the other person's briefcase.

"There must be a lot of money in it. You'll be crying when the time comes, little devil."

I came in just to wash my face and had no intention of going to the bathroom.

He followed Tang Deshang to go to the toilet only after he saw him.

"Shanghainese, you're really rich."

Liu Lang's nose is sharper than a dog's. Even in a place like the toilet, he can smell the scent of money.

"It must cost at least several thousand dollars to have such a strong smell."

Tang Deshang returned to his seat, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Why do I always feel like someone is thinking about me? Could it be that boy?"

People around me ate noodles at this time, and those who had no noodles ate biscuits or the cakes they brought with them.

Serve with chili and roll it up to eat.

Seeing others eating these, Tang Deshang felt very contemptuous, "They are so poor that they actually eat these things."

He always goes to the restaurant car for his meals and eats freshly cooked food.

If you add two chicken legs, the meal can cost about thirty or forty yuan.

After dinner, you should have some fruit.

Crack some melon seeds when you have free time.

Most people can’t afford to buy them, a bag of melon seeds costs five yuan.

At that time, the monthly income was only five or six hundred yuan, and few workers could afford to buy it.

Except for some students or rich people.

The children next to him watched Tang Deshang eat with relish, and he had all kinds of snacks.

With his mouth watering, he cried to his mother, "Mom, I want to eat fruit, too."

"I'll buy it for you when we get to Shanghai."

The train is so expensive, even the fruit at the station is not cheap.

The two adults had dry lips, but they were reluctant to buy a bottle of mineral water.

The only time to replenish water is when eating instant noodles.

They didn't have water glasses.

"But why does the uncle next to you have so much food?"

The little girl was drooling as she watched.

Tang Deshang hated this dirty little girl with dark skin very much.

Her fingernails were not trimmed, and there was dirt in the gaps between her nails. But the girl had a pair of big, dark, shiny eyes and double eyelids.

If she washed herself clean and had whiter skin, she would definitely be a beautiful little girl.

"Don't even think about it! Children shouldn't eat these."

Tang Deshang moved the food in front of him far away.

When the little girl saw that all the delicious food had been taken away, she burst into tears in panic.

The girl's mother rushed to comfort her daughter.

The honest husband on the other side begged humbly, "Sir, you have so much food, can you give some to the child? She can't eat much."

"Just a little, let the child have a taste."

Tang Deshang saw that the man also had dark skin, very thick and rough fingers, and the clothes he was wearing were the kind that cost only a few dollars at a street stall.

The contempt was piled on his face.

"I bought all this with my own money, if you want to eat it, go buy it yourself."

The child was making a lot of noise, and the man had no choice but to spend five dollars to buy a bag of oranges.

There were only five of them inside, and that stopped the little girl from crying.

I happily ate four in one go.

Only then did I remember that my parents hadn’t eaten yet.

"Dad, Mom, eat oranges."

"Dad and Mom don't like to eat fruit, so Yuxiang eats it."

Tang Deshang looked at the three people in this family from the side, and saw that they had to give way to each other for a few oranges, and he felt even more contempt for them in his heart.

"I will never take the train again. What kind of people are these?"
