There is nothing special about an oxcart. It is just an ox pulling an open wooden cart.

The weather in early September was a little chilly. At five o'clock, the sky was foggy and the autumn wind blew the fallen leaves, which quietly fell on Liang Tian's tender shoulders. In the distance, the occasional sounds of chickens and dogs barking could be heard. The deserted country road was a little dark and unpredictable.

Even with a golden finger in hand, Liang Tian still feels insecure.

Bare hands and nothing else.

Perhaps, only the 'family' around her can bring her some warmth.

I hope this trip goes well.

The road was uneven, with clods of earth rising in different places, and the ox cart was very bumpy to ride in. The two or three hour ride was really torturous for the mind, but what was even more torturous than the mind was the buttocks.

"It's finally here!" Li Xianghe curled her lips and rubbed her butt subconsciously: "This damn thing is really uncomfortable!"

Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes and said, "If you think it's uncomfortable to sit on, why don't you get off the car? You think it's uncomfortable to sit on, but the cow thinks you're fat!"

Liang Tian got off the ox cart with an expressionless face, while tears silently flowed in her heart.

She swore that she must have a whole car! Even a bicycle is better than a bullock cart!

It was less than eight o'clock at this time. The ox cart was sent to the place designated by the village chief, and the group of people rushed to the station in a mighty manner.

"I'm going to say this first. When we get to the station, follow closely. It's going to be very chaotic there. If you get lost or taken away by human traffickers, I won't be able to save you!"

Liang Xiaomei was curious: "Grandma, how do you know? Have you ever taken a train?" She was not arguing, she was really curious. After all, the old ladies and old men in the village seemed to have never left the village in their lives.

Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes and said, "I've never taken a train, but have I never heard of it? Okay, save your energy!" In fact, she had been to the vicinity of the station before and had seen it from afar. She would never forget that scene!

I don't know if the station is in better condition now...

Although I had something on my mind, I walked quickly and arrived at the station in no time.

Damn! Are those crowds all people?

Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she ran forward quickly to find out what was going on.

There was a long queue of people queuing up at the ticket office. There was no place to step. People were standing, lying or sitting. It was full of people!

Some people were queuing up to buy tickets, some were waiting for the train to arrive, and some got off the train and waited for someone to pick them up.

It was smoky and crowded.

"Dahai! Come and line up!" Mrs. Wang hurriedly called out to the people behind her, fearing that they would not be able to get on the train today.

Fortunately, after waiting in line for almost an hour, it was finally their turn.

Wang Pozi handed over the letter of introduction, then said the number of people and counted out the corresponding money in advance. The ticket seller took the letter of introduction, checked the content of the letter first, and saw that the reason was for medical treatment, and quickly glanced at Liangshan who was carried by Lianghai.

"7.8 yuan per person, a total of 70 yuan."

Mrs. Wang was heartbroken. It cost one or two hundred yuan to go out and back. No wonder the villagers often said they wanted to go out for a look, but no one went out!

But no matter how distressed she was, Mrs. Wang paid the money very quickly. While waiting in line, she saw many people arguing with the ticket seller, and without exception, they were driven away!

In this era, it's not just the ticket sellers who have bad tempers. The waiters in state-owned restaurants, the salesmen in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the postmen in the post office all have this aggressive and arrogant temperament!

What's the point of saying that customers are God? That's not the case nowadays!

The conductor took the money, manually counted it to verify its authenticity, and then quickly issued nine tickets, manually writing down key information such as the train number and seat number.

Most people can’t do this. You need to be educated, have nimble hands and feet, and have a temperament that can shock people!

Wang Pozi took the ticket, put on some oil on her feet, and quickly left the team. As for the others, they had already left the team early at Wang Pozi's reminder.

Otherwise, if you are slow and delay the people behind you from buying tickets, or make the ticket seller impatient, you will be scolded.

"Grandma, when did our car arrive?" Liang Tian asked.

"I don't understand it either. You can read, come and take a look!" Mrs. Wang could only write her own name. As for the others, she couldn't understand them no matter how hard she opened her eyes. This was one of the reasons why the little ones were brought along as well.

"10:45, which means we won't be able to reach the provincial capital until around 2pm."

Mrs. Wang nodded: "That will take some time. Let's find a place to eat something to fill our stomachs." They got up early in the morning and were all starving.

There were many people at the train station, who knew if there were any human traffickers inside? Mrs. Wang and a group of people gathered together, formed a circle, and took out the pancakes baked early in the morning from the sack.

"Dahai, go get some hot water over there!" Mrs. Wang handed her second son a bowl.

An enamel teacup costs several dollars each, and most importantly, you need an industrial ticket to buy it.

How could ordinary people afford that? So before going out, I had to bring two bowls with me. I couldn't do without them. I couldn't hold water with my hands, right?

As soon as Liang Hai left, Wang Pozi broke the pancakes into several pieces and gave them to the younger ones: "Fill your stomach first, eat slowly, don't choke, and eat with water when the water comes later."

When Liang Hai came back with a bowl of hot water, it was almost half an hour later. There were so many people on the road, fortunately the water didn't spill.

"There were too many people waiting for hot water over there, and someone accidentally poured hot water on someone else, and a fight broke out."

Mrs. Wang understood, and probably her second son was forced to watch the fun: "Eat the cakes quickly." Then she divided the hot water into two other bowls, and the three of them drank from one bowl.

It is impossible to eat enough, but we can only keep something in our stomach so that we don’t have to keep eating an empty city plan.

After eating, Mrs. Wang quickly tied the sack tightly with a hemp rope and held it tightly in her arms.

Nowadays, there are no bags or boxes, but snakeskin sacks are good. They are big and strong and can hold a lot of things.

On this trip, one sack was used to carry clothes and the other sack was used to carry food and other things.

Although it was not something particularly valuable, Mrs. Wang was still afraid of being targeted.

After a while, a lot of people suddenly stood out from the crowd, each carrying, holding or shouldering their luggage, and ran quickly towards the track.

"Hurry up! Everyone hold hands, pack your things, and get ready to get on the bus!"

The little ones didn't realize why they were holding hands, but their bodies were very honest and they held hands obediently, running forward with Grandma Wang leading the way.

There are more and more people and there is no order at all.

Liang Tian is not tall, and from a distance, he could only see a crowd of people.

The colors of this era are all gray, which makes people feel dizzy.

Suddenly there was a strong force and Liang Tian was almost knocked down. Fortunately, Liang Xiaomei was beside them. She was strong and had a hot temper. She immediately scolded, "You are so blind. You keep bumping into people!" After scolding, she pulled Liang Tian and squeezed forward quickly.
