It was made with a specially brought ceramic cup, which was particularly large. Xiu Xi steeped two packets of instant noodles in it all at once.

"Brother Xi, how much does a packet cost?"

"One yuan and twenty cents," Xiu Xi answered.

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded, feeling that it was quite expensive; just a little more money could buy a half kilo of pork.

Ruan Jie had already eaten his fill, but when Ruan Jiaojiao’s instant noodles were ready, he moved closer to her and suddenly felt a bit hungry again.

In fact, instant noodles had been available in their city for a while, but the Ruan Family always cooked at home and didn’t really pay attention to this, so they thought it was some new novelty.

When it came time to eat, even Shu Jiao took a couple bites and thought it tasted quite good.

The main thing was that it was convenient; as long as there was hot water, you could eat.

After finishing the instant noodles and tidying up, the train arrived.

Ruan Jianguo had purchased bunk beds. Before boarding, he said to Ruan Jiaojiao and the others, "When we arrive, just go ahead and board first; don’t worry about us. Xiaoxi, follow them and remember to look after them well."

Xiu Xi nodded, his hands also carrying quite a few things, and he closely followed Ruan Jiaojiao and the others onto the train.

Although there weren’t many people getting on the train at their station, the train itself was very crowded, so much that the aisles were blocked. Shu Jiao was at the front, followed by the Ruanlin Family holding her, and behind them was Xiu Xi carrying items.

By the time they finally found their carriage, Ruan Jiaojiao felt like throwing up.

"The smell on this train is really strong," said the Ruanlin Family.

Tobacco, foot odor, food... Truly, there was a bit of every smell.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t say anything, but she was actually about to vomit. She had eaten a lot of instant noodles before boarding the train, and the various smells had overwhelmed her, which only made her queasy disposition worse.

They had bunk beds, six beds in total. They hadn’t managed to get beds in the same compartment during ticket purchase; they were split between two compartments but were fortunately close to each other.

However, when the Ruanlin Family found their beds, they discovered that there were people already on them.

Shu Jiao checked her ticket several times, confirmed it was their spots, and then went to notify them one by one. Three of them woke up and left with apparent embarrassment.

However, the occupants of two opposite beds didn’t wake up. Shu Jiao thought she had been too gentle in waking them, but the Ruanlin Family clearly saw both people’s eyelids twitching, which was a clear sign they were pretending to sleep.

The Ruanlin Family had none of Shu Jiao’s patience and went up to pull the blankets off both individuals at the same time.

They had been comfortably covered, but suddenly their blankets were gone, and the two shivered from the chill.

The woman on the left pretended to wake up and asked the Ruanlin Family while rubbing her eyes, "What are you doing? Who are you? Why are you pulling off my blanket?"

The person on the right, who looked younger, lay still as if they had not awakened.

"It doesn’t matter who we are. This is our spot, please make some room," the Ruanlin Family said curtly.

The woman glanced at the Ruanlin Family, then at Shu Jiao and Ruan Jiaojiao, and at Xiu Xi who also looked to be in his teens. A flash of thought crossed her mind, and she considered being obstinate about giving up the seat, but then she saw Ruan Jianguo coming with over a hundred pounds of luggage, followed by Ruan Jie with a similar build but slightly smaller. She immediately didn’t dare to say anything more.

She clumsily climbed down from the bed.

The Ruanlin Family went up first to open the window next to the beds for some air. Then, with a look of disgust, she flipped over the blanket that she had laid on, rolled it to one side, and smoothed out the bed sheet, asking Ruan Jiaojiao to come over and sit down first.
