The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

The traveler from Country C began to feel a sense of uneasiness deep in his heart, as if a dark cloud was covering the sun.

At this moment, Xu Xiufang's voice sounded, completely different from the gentleness before. Now her tone was like the cold wind of early winter, cold and piercing: "But there is a lyric circulating in our country, 'When friends come, we have good wine. If the jackal comes, we welcome it with a shotgun!' Our friendship is rooted in mutual respect, which has always been the unshakable principle foundation of our country's foreign relations! Even if today's incident is brought to the embassy, ​​justice and fairness are on our side! Therefore, if this gentleman insists on refusing to apologize, you don't need to inform the embassy, ​​we will take the initiative to go there. We must pursue a clear and obvious result in this matter!"

As Xu Xiufang finished her words, those foreigners who could understand Chinese immediately shouted at the countryman C, pointing fingers and talking, and the atmosphere became tense for a while.

And domestic tourists, with the help of others' enthusiastic "translation", also suddenly realized the power of Xu Xiufang's words.

Seeing this, they all lined up behind Xu Xiufang. These compatriots, who usually felt aggrieved in front of outsiders, now straightened their backs, looked full of energy, and their eyes were shining with unprecedented light.

"That's right, we don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but we will never tolerate bullying. Girl, we all support you!"

"If he doesn't apologize, we will file a joint complaint against him. We will be your witnesses!"

Everyone was talking at the same time, the atmosphere was extremely lively and full of the power of unity.

Even our foreign friends were moved by this wave of justice and joined the ranks of support!

At this moment, supporting Xu Xiufang seemed to have become the most upright and courageous act, converging into an unstoppable trend.

The face of the man from country C suddenly turned gloomy. He came to China for sightseeing, not for business negotiations.

On a daily basis, they enjoy special treatment in China due to their status as foreigners. They always feel that they are superior to others and are accustomed to being bossy.

I never thought that I would fall into such a big setback today!

"Mike, you better apologize as soon as possible."

His companions lowered their heads in the condemning gaze of the crowd, and hurriedly pushed him, urging him to admit his mistake.

The outspoken C countryman, with great reluctance, barely uttered the English word "Sorry".

Xu Xiufang had a subtle smile on her face and responded calmly: "How do you say it in Chinese? You should have learned it, right?"

Countryman C was already furious, staring at Xu Xiufang. Seeing Xie Yi approaching, the other party's cold gaze made him feel a chill in his heart. He instantly lost all his momentum and squeezed out a sentence in slightly stiff Chinese: "I'm sorry!"

Then, pulled by his companions, he left the dining car in shame, leaving their plates almost untouched, leaving an awkward silence at the table.

Xu Xiufang snorted and calmly sat back in her seat.

"Clap clap clap!"

Xiaobao suddenly appeared and clapped his hands and laughed, applauding and celebrating for his mother.

Erbao received even louder applause, as he always had concerns about the image of foreigners in movies, especially war movies.

The scene of his mother teaching the man from country C a lesson made him feel extremely happy, and he looked at his mother with eyes full of admiration.

Although Mr. Xie and others could not fully understand the communication in English, they clearly caught the not-so-standard "I'm sorry" and clapped loudly with excitement.

Xie's mother's face was beaming with pride. She didn't even notice her hands were turning red from clapping. Her cheeks were hot and her enthusiasm was beyond words.

The Chinese and foreign passengers present were also infected by this atmosphere of justice. They applauded and looked at Xu Xiufang with admiration.

A foreign man in a corner even raised his red wine glass to greet her.

The thunderous applause echoed in the carriage for a long time.

Not only that, some Chinese people who were inspired by Xu Xiufang's words and deeds took the initiative to ask the flight attendants for chopsticks, using this as a symbol of national confidence and showing their cultural pride.

The flight attendant brought Xu Xiufang and her companions a special fruit basket filled with fresh apples, pears and oranges. She said excitedly: "Comrade Xu, this is the first time we have witnessed a foreigner apologizing here!"

Xu Xiufang took the fruit basket with a smile, but she felt mixed emotions in her heart. However, the bitterness was soon dispelled - Xie Yi quietly held her hand under the table and whispered: "Wife, you are awesome!"

Facing the praise from everyone, Xu Xiufang felt shy and happy. Seeing everyone looking at her like a hero, she quickly changed the subject: "Come and have dinner!"

Xie's mother and others picked up their chopsticks and started to enjoy the food, no longer worrying about other people's strange looks - at this moment, no one in the carriage dared to cast disrespectful glances.

Xu Xiufang had never expected that this seemingly insignificant episode would become a spiritual boost for their train journey over the next two days.

After finishing the meal and returning to the cabin, Xie's mother and others took Dabao, who was fluent in English, and patiently asked Xu Xiufang about the details of how she tactfully responded to the man from Country C.

Mr. Xie was rather reserved and was too embarrassed to ask directly, so he could only listen attentively.

Fang Kai and Zhou Dani were also fascinated by the speech, their faces full of excitement, as if they were witnessing a wonderful debate.

At this moment, Dabao was no longer as irritable as before, and patiently repeated the whole process over and over again.

Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi chose to be alone in a small cubicle nearby.

Xie Yi brought hot water for Xu Xiufang to soak her feet. After she had enjoyed it, Xie Yi took over. Then the two of them lay side by side on the narrow berth and began a leisurely night chat.

Xu Xiufang asked curiously, "Brother Yi, before you said you wanted to buy a car from Brother Jiang, and he said he would go back and ask, has he received a reply?"

Prior to this, Xie Yi had planned to buy a second-hand car from Jiang Chengping. Today Jiang Chengping sent them to the train station, and there must be further discussions.

Xie Yi answered slowly, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone: "The superiors need to consider it again."

There was a hint of anticipation and worry in his eyes, and it was obvious that this decision was of great importance to him.

Hearing this, Xu Xiufang frowned slightly, raised her face, and her eyes flashed with curiosity, as if she was describing all the possibilities of the future.

"Then if they finally decide to sell it, won't you have to return home again and drive the car back in person?"

Her voice was full of concern, as if she had foreseen the hardship of the long journey.

"That may be the case," Xie Yi nodded, with a faint smile on his face, "But Brother Jiang mentioned that if the deal goes through, he would arrange for the brothers in the team to drive the car directly to Beijing City, saving me the trouble of going back and forth."

This arrangement obviously made him feel a little relieved, but at the same time a little disappointed, after all, he could not personally choose his beloved car.

Xu Xiufang heard this and thought silently in her mind.

Although she felt a little regretful that she couldn't choose the car herself, she was well aware of the deep friendship between Jiang Chengping and Xie Yi, and firmly believed that Xie Yi would not suffer any loss because of this.

This trust was confirmed in the tacit eye contact between the two.

The time that followed passed quietly in the relaxed chat, and it was almost ten o'clock when Xie Yi's parents reluctantly returned to the carriage.
