After Xiao Ju asked Niang about the ins and outs of the whole thing, although her mother was confused because of Hu Daring's appearance, she did not forget that she was the mother of two children, nor did she forget her responsibilities as a mother, and she also understood that as an illiterate person in this era, she grew up in the countryside and had the pure small peasant thinking of this era, and her mother was a little timid when she saw Hu Daring, and was afraid and gave up when Hu Daring threatened to exterminate the strong and strong.

No matter what era you are in, if you want to survive and live better, sometimes you have to give up something in order to be able to fit in. Xiaoju knows that she can treat Hu Dang so hard now, mainly because of the small space she has and the small treasure bowl in the small space, with them, the family's living security is worry-free, and she took her family to the base, and now she plans to go to Shanghai, but she wants to take her family away from the sunrise and sunset life that her mother has lived since she was a child. Let yourself and Zhuang have a broader world.

understood her mother's Xiaoju, and a smile began to appear on her delicate little face again. And Xiao Ju Niang saw Xiao Ju smiling again, and she breathed a big sigh of relief in her heart, she knew how much she was afraid of her daughter's displeasure, and her daughter's happiness was many times more important than Hu Daring's.

Xiao Ju Niang secretly decided not to make today's mistakes again, one qiē centered on her children, and put other people and things aside, anyway, Xiao Ju said that she would not return to Hujiazhuang. What's more, after this famine and war, it is difficult to say how many people in the village survived? Xiao Ju never expected that Hu Daring's troubles would make Xiao Ju Niang really become a child control from then on.

"Sister, what should we do now?" Zhuang Zhuang looked at the people who were dragging luggage and carrying large packages around him, and stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Ju, who was a little distracted because of his mother's business.

"Let's see when there is a train to Wuhan! Let's leave Zhengzhou quickly! Xiao Ju hesitated for a moment and said to her mother.

"Go early, rest assured! As for your grandparents and uncles, maybe they also escaped the disaster and lived well somewhere! "How dare Xiao Ju Niang stay in Zhengzhou to find someone now? Thinking that Hu Daring was looking for them everywhere in the city, she couldn't wait to get away immediately.

"In that case, let's go to the ticket hall and ask when there will be a train to Wuhan!" Xiao Ju saw that her mother didn't have a single tendon, and she insisted on finding someone without any light things, so she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and her tone naturally became relaxed.

Soon Xiao Ju and the three of them came out of the ticket hall with a smile on their faces. And Xiao Ju was holding three train tickets in her hand. And Zhuang Zhuang is even more interesting, and began to pester Xiaoju to ask what kind of car the train is! This made Xiao Ju realize that Zhuang Zhuang had never seen a train, let alone taken a train.

Xiao Ju thinks that her family is still very lucky. I was able to buy a ticket for this train from Zhengzhou to Wuhan at one o'clock in the evening. Seeing that the train station was crowded with people waiting for the train, Xiaoju thought that she would be able to buy tickets like during the Spring Festival in her previous life. After all, it is a time of war, and trains are the best means of transportation for people to flee and travel.

But soon Xiaoju couldn't laugh anymore. The three of them waited until one o'clock in the morning, and the train they bought didn't arrive at all. Xiao Ju thought that she was often late when she took the train in her previous life, so when she heard that the train they bought had not yet arrived at the station, she was quite calm. But until six or seven o'clock in the morning, there was still no shadow of that train. The calmest of the three, she couldn't help but feel anxious. This train is too late for too long, right?

Two more hours passed, and Xiao Ju finally couldn't bear to run to the ticket hall, and specially found a staff member who looked kind and asked, "This big brother, why hasn't the train I got on at one o'clock last night yet entered the station?" ”

"A little last night? The train that others got on the train at one o'clock the day before yesterday has not yet entered the station, and yours is still very early! Wait patiently! The young staff member who was dressed in the work clothes of the railway bureau and was called the eldest brother by Xiao Ju said impatiently.

"What? The train that got on the train at one o'clock the day before yesterday has not yet entered the station? At this time, Xiao Ju couldn't calm down, and the horror in her heart quickly showed surprise on her face.

"Big girl, it's your first time on the train, right?" At this time, a young man who happened to be standing next to Xiao Ju and looked like the kind of inn boy in the second costume interjected quickly.

"Yes! Is there a problem with this? Xiao Ju looked at this young man with a suspicious look in his eyes, but with a shrewd face, and at the same time his tone was a little wary of strangers.

"No problem! No problem! Big girl, don't get me wrong! I don't mean anything else by asking! It's just that if you take the train for the first time, you may not know that there are many ways to take the train. The young man in the second costume of the inn had a show on his face, a kind of self-satisfaction that could be face-smacked in front of the young girl.

"There's a lot more to get by train? I really don't know, this big brother! Can you tell me about it! When Xiao Ju heard the information revealed in the young man's words, although she was a little surprised, she was really not very clear about the situation of trains in this era, but she only put on a look of humility and seeking advice.

"Big girl, you don't know this train, since it started, I have never traveled according to the schedule." The young man deliberately stopped when he said this, and his face showed a look of 'Ask me why!' Just ask! Xiao Ju also opened his mouth as he wished, "Big brother, why is that?" ”

"I don't know why the train doesn't travel according to the schedule, even the eldest brother of the railway bureau may not know very well! But what I do know is that guests who often travel by train will not look at the timetable, it is a piece of waste paper, and it is in vain to look at it! The young man said with a smug face.

"You guy, you took advantage of the delay of the train, and you are still selling good to the little girl here! If our train isn't late, where do you get to tip those guests who stop at your inn? How can you live so nourishingly as you do now? I heard that this kid of yours married a beautiful daughter-in-law last year, right? The young man from the railway bureau who Xiao Ju first stepped forward to inquire spoke a little indignantly.

"That's right! If it weren't for the fact that the train was never allowed to arrive at the station, and the innkeeper would not have launched the service of 'watching the car' for the guests of the hotel, I would not have this job that is both light and can earn a lot of tips. "As Xiao Ju guessed, the young man who automatically accosted her with a slick face was the second child of an inn near the train station who specialized in 'watching the car' for guests. At this time, Xiao Er sincerely admitted the benefits that the young man from the railway bureau said about the delay of the train.

"Looking at the car?" Xiao Ju's mouth subconsciously chewed these two words that were familiar to her, but they revealed an unfamiliar industry.

"Big sister, you don't know what 'watching a car' is, right? That is, I write down the train number of the inn every day, and then go to the train station to stare at it, and when I see the train that has guests coming into the station, I immediately run to the inn to inform the guests to get on the train, so that the guests don't have to wait stupidly at the train station! The young little two continued his zealous solution.

"I see!" Xiao Ju finally came to her senses. Although I can't enjoy this kind of service this time, I know the situation of trains in this era, and the next time I take the train, I can avoid waiting at the train station like this time.

As for the reason for the delay of the train, it was many years later that Xiaoju inadvertently talked about this experience during a chat with a management member of a railway bureau she knew, and only then did she know the deep-seated reason.

First of all, the train equipment of this era is extremely backward. When a train runs down, it passes through a dozen stations and hundreds of stations. In order for the stations to run on time, there is a basic premise - the clock time must be the same at each station. This pediatrics thing in the eyes of modern people was once a problem in this era.

The reasons for the equipment are also the aging of the locomotive, the decay of the sleepers, the damage of the parts, and even the poor quality of the coal. Some delays are caused by the railway staff's lack of technical precision and slackness in their work, such as the slow speed of the driver, the slow loading and unloading of luggage and packages, the unloading of the vehicle in a timely manner, and the slow refueling of coal and water in the middle of the way.

Natural factors and unexpected events can also disrupt railway operations. In this era, when you take a train, you often encounter incidents such as road breaks, bridge collapses, floods, and fires in front of you.

Another reason is in the boarding and disembarking links. In this era, taking the train is not the implementation of the number of seats, and passengers often scramble to squeeze into the carriage in order to grab a seat. This causes the people who get off the bus to not get off, and the people who get on the bus can't get on, and the car naturally can't leave on time. Each station is delayed for a few minutes, and the accumulation of the whole train delay is very considerable. Xiao Ju has a deep feeling for this.

At this time, Xiaoju was also very helpless after knowing the time when the train arrived at the station. In addition, the family was frightened last night, and they didn't sleep all night, and they were already exhausted, so they bought a few flatbreads near the train station for breakfast. At this time, it was almost noon, and the stomachs of the three of them were already ringing with hunger.

"This big brother, you often 'watch cars' here, you must be very familiar with this area! I'd like to ask if there are any better restaurants near this station? Xiao Ju smiled and asked the talkative little er.

"The 'Ke Zailai' restaurant opposite the station, the food tastes good and the price is fair! The service attitude is also good! Seeing that Xiao Ju was so polite to him, the young innkeeper was about to grin back with a smile on his face, so he naturally said whatever he knew.

"Big brother, is this good? I took my mother and brother to the restaurant to have lunch and rest by the way, you see that my mother and brother are so tired that they can't even open their eyes. This is the train we are going to take, please help us watch, you will run to inform us when the car arrives! Don't worry, you won't be allowed to work in vain! Xiao Ju scooped out his ticket and handed it to the inn junior and let him see the train number.

"Big sister, don't worry! I've been doing this for years! Never missed a guest's business! When your car arrives, I'll go to the 'guest again' to find you! The innkeeper didn't expect that because of small talk, he would receive another job in vain, and his face was naturally full of joy.

"This girl, you can go eat at ease! This guy's credit is really reliable! At this time, the young man from the railway bureau also spoke. So Xiao Ju and the three of them finally dragged their tired steps with confidence and went to the 'Ke Come Again' restaurant. rs！。 (Go)
