Chapter 1231 Turning Point of Fate
Chapter 1231 Turning Point of Fate
The train conductor glared fiercely at Tao Jiajia: "I've been playing hide-and-seek with you for almost half an hour, and you've delayed so many things!"
I told you to buy a ticket, but you couldn't afford it. Come with me right now, I'm sending you back home!
Tao Jiajia remained silent, her head bowed, as if she had resigned herself to her fate.
He had no money on him. When he escaped from the Zhang family, he wanted to steal something, but Cao Juhua kept a close eye on all the money, so he had no choice.
Moreover, if she took Cao Juhua's things, Cao Juhua would never let it go, no matter what.
If he is sent back now, he will have no choice but to return to the Zhang family, and Cao Juhua doesn't know how she will deal with him.
She worked so hard to get into university, and now it's all for nothing. Cao Juhua will definitely be wary of him taking the university entrance exam and will tear up his acceptance letter.
The train conductor tried to pull Tao Jiajia away, but Lin Qingqing suddenly spoke up to stop him: "Comrade, I know her. I'm sorry to cause you trouble."
We'll get her a sleeper ticket. Look, the upper berth of this bed is currently empty, isn't it? If so, we'll buy that bed.
Tao Jiajia suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Qingqing with some surprise.
She didn't realize for a moment what Lin Qingqing had just said.
The train conductor immediately beamed with joy. In those days, train tickets were indeed quite scarce, but sleeper tickets were actually readily available.
Most people would rather sit in a hard seat or bring their own small stool, since it saves them more than half the money.
Even those with a little bit of savings are mostly quite frugal. After all, there's not much difference between sitting and lying down, and you can save so much money. Wouldn't it be better to buy some good food instead?
The train conductor smiled and said, "No problem, it's empty. I'll print out your ticket for you right now!"
Tao Jiajia shook her head violently and said to Lin Qingqing, "Are you really going to help me buy a ticket? I will definitely pay you back later!"
"But could you upgrade to a hard seat or even a standing ticket? It's only a 10-20 hour journey; I can stand for a bit without a problem. A sleeper ticket is such a waste!"
The train conductor had already quickly printed out the ticket and said to Lin Qingqing, "The total is 7.28 yuan!"
Upon hearing his wife speak, Shen Mo consciously took out money from his pocket.
Aunt Zhang kept teasing Shen Chang'an from the side. When she saw Lin Qingqing pay for Tao Jiajia's ticket, she didn't say anything. She knew that Lin Qingqing had always been kind-hearted, and besides, this was a turning point in someone else's life.
The train conductor smiled and walked away, while Tao Jiajia sat down beside him somewhat uneasily.
It was almost lunchtime, and Tao Jiajia hadn't eaten in a long time; her stomach was growling with hunger.
Lin Qingqing naturally took out the meat buns she had bought at the state-run restaurant earlier, took two and handed them to Tao Jiajia.
Tao Jiajia cried after taking the meat bun, and then knelt down in front of Lin Qingqing with a thud, startling Lin Qingqing so much that she quickly changed direction.
Lin Qingqing was both amused and exasperated: "I told you not to do that, such a grand gesture is really too much!"
Tao Jiajia cried for a long time, unable to control her emotions.
Lin Qingqing gently patted Tao Jiajia's back, and even Aunt Zhang Er whispered words of comfort beside her.
Although Shen Chang'an didn't know what had happened, he stared with his big eyes and babbled incoherently.
