Fast-paced era: a warm and leisurely life

Chapter 286 The Weak Girl of the Age 93

At 3 o'clock, we were ready to start checking tickets.

Han Tuo carried their backpacks in one hand and protected Gu Nuanyi with the other as they walked onto the train.

After sitting down, Gu Nuanyi couldn't stand it anymore, and her eyelids started to droop.

Gu Nuanyi forced herself to put the luggage bag inside, then leaned on the bag and closed her eyes.

Hantuo opened his luggage and took out a coat to cover Gu Nuanyi. As soon as he gently touched Gu Nuanyi, she opened her eyes.

"Just sleep, I'll be watching over you!"

Gu Nuanyi woke up after sleeping for a while and rubbed her aching neck.

I stood up and stretched my waist. It was really uncomfortable to sleep on this hard seat.

"Hantuo, take a nap. I'll go take a look." Gu Nuanyi covered Hantuo with her coat, turned around and took out a picture book from her luggage to pass the time.

Hantuo hadn't slept for long, and woke up by smelling the food: "Nuan Yi, would you like some?"

Gu Nuanyi nodded and ordered one meat and one vegetable.

I couldn't eat anymore after eating half of it.

Hantuo didn't mind seeing this, he took the rest and started eating

After dinner, Hantuo asked in a gentle voice: "Nuanyi, do you want to sleep a little longer?"

"I'm not sleepy yet, go to sleep first!"

"Okay, wake me up when you feel sleepy, and we'll take turns guarding the things. There are many thieves who will take advantage of the train's stop time to steal things. If I'm not awake at that time, the things will be stolen. You must protect yourself, because those thieves may carry knives."

Gu Nuanyi closed the comic book and looked at Hantuo, her eyes full of interest in gossip: "Did something like this happen when you educated youth went to the countryside?"

Hantuo shook his head: "The staff of the Youth Educated Office who sent us to the countryside told us that two of the youth educated in the same group were stabbed several times by thieves in an attempt to get their money back. If the train hadn't stopped at the station, those people would never have been saved."

Gu Nuanyi's eyes widened: "Are all those thieves so rampant? This is murder!"

"They just get on the train to make a quick buck and run away. Even the local police find it difficult to catch those thieves. That's why I said that if someone comes to steal things and I'm not awake at the time, you should just pretend you don't know and don't resist. Who knows what those thieves will have on them?"

Gu Nuanyi nodded repeatedly: "My own life is more important!"

However, what the two worried about did not happen. Maybe the thieves went home for the New Year...

At 7 o'clock on the evening of the third day, the train finally stopped in Guangzhou.

Gu Nuanyi got off the train with a face full of pain. Her butt was about to become an iron butt...

Hantuo did not take Gu Nuanyi back to the so-called home, but took Gu Nuanyi to live in a guesthouse.

In order to prevent Gu Nuanyi from feeling that he did not value her, he also explained: "Nuanyi, the people in that family don't like me. If I take you back, they will definitely make you angry. They may even ask you to do this and that. I don't want you to suffer. Besides, I took such a large sum of money from that family. They will definitely find ways to get it back. Let's just go and see my mom and then we can go back."

Gu Nuanyi nodded. She had no intention of going to the home that Hantuo mentioned. That home was not good to Hantuo, so how could it be good to her, the daughter-in-law?

She won't let herself be wronged, so it's better not to go!

Gu Nuanyi yawned, "Hantuo, you are familiar with Guangzhou. Do you know where people are still making paper money and candles? We are going to worship your mother tomorrow. We can't go without anything!"

"Well, I know where I can buy it. I'll go buy it tomorrow." Hantuo saw that Gu Nuanyi was almost walking with her eyes closed.

He quickly took Gu Nuanyi's hand and walked into the guesthouse: "Hello, comrade, please open two rooms for us."

"Where's the letter of introduction?"

Hantuo quickly took out the letter of introduction from his bag

After reading the letter of introduction, the front desk lady took out two keys from the drawer: "The rooms are on the third floor, two rooms are next to each other, at the end of the corridor is the shared bathroom and toilet, there is a kettle in the room, if you want hot water, just go to the water room and get some."

"Thank you!" Hantuo took the key, held Gu Nuanyi's hand and walked towards the stairs: "Be careful with the steps below."

Gu Nuanyi walked into the room and looked around. Although it looked old, there was no bad smell and the bed sheets and quilt covers were clean.

Hantuo came back with a pot of hot water: "The bathroom and toilet are at the end of the corridor. Do you need me to accompany you?"

Gu Nuanyi shook her head: "No, I'll just take a shower and go to bed later, no need to call me to eat."

After Hantuo left, Gu Nuanyi came to the bathroom with some clean clothes.

There is only cold water in the bathroom, and you need to go to the water room to get hot water.

After Gu Nuanyi closed the door, she immediately entered the space. Although Guangshi was warmer than Linanshi, it was still cold.

It is night again, and the breeze is blowing.

It takes some courage to take off your clothes

Gu Nuanyi took a comfortable bath in the space, washed a bowl of strawberries and ate them, and blew her hair half dry before leaving the space.

As soon as I got back to the room, Hantuo knocked on the door and brought two glass bottles: "I asked Ayi downstairs for these. It's cold under the quilt. Put these two glass bottles inside and it won't be cold anymore."

"Thank you, you should rest early too!"

After sitting on the train for three days and two nights, Gu Nuanyi was really exhausted physically and mentally.

Lying on the bed holding the glass bottle, I fell asleep in a short while.

The next day, Hantuo got up early.

I went to buy breakfast, incense, candles and paper money before waking up Gu Nuanyi.

After the two finished their breakfast, Han Tuo took Gu Nuanyi to a particularly desolate place.

Hantuo took a long time to identify the place before bringing Gu Nuanyi to a small grave.

When you see the weeds beside the grave, you know no one has visited it for a long time.

There was only a simple stone tablet in front of the small tomb, with the words "Qu Peng's Wife" engraved on it and nothing else.

She doesn't even have her own name...

Hantuo took out a handkerchief from his bag and wiped the dust off the tombstone bit by bit. Gu Nuanyi also stepped forward to help pull out the grass around the grave.

After finishing, Hantuo knelt in front of the grave and lit incense and candles. While burning paper money, he said, "Ama, I'm Hanzi. I'm back to see you. I have a good news to tell you. I found a girl in the countryside and we're getting married soon. To be more precise, I'm getting married!!"

Hantuo looked at Gu Nuanyi tenderly. Gu Nuanyi's heart softened and she knelt beside Hantuo. Hantuo took Gu Nuanyi's hand and introduced her, "Mom, this is my girlfriend. We met in the countryside. Her family is so good to me and has never looked down on me because I married into their family. Mom, I have a family too!!"

Gu Nuanyi added some paper money to the fire and said, "Hello, Auntie. My name is Gu Nuanyi, and I'm Hantuo's girlfriend. Don't worry, my parents and I will treat Hantuo well in the future!"

Hantuo was burning paper money while talking about what happened in the countryside, and Gu Nuanyi would occasionally say a few words.

After the paper money was burned, Hantuo took a deep breath and said with a choked voice: "Mom, I'm leaving. I'll come back to see you when I have time!!"
