Chapter: 156 The Ticket is Lost

“You are a money-loser, why are you apologizing? You are a piece of shit.”

When the old lady heard her granddaughter apologizing to someone, she started to scold her.

“Ye Jibai, go get the conductor to deal with it.” Seeing this situation, Lin Weiwan could only let Ye Jibai go find the conductor.

Seeing that the other party was old, Lin Weiwan was embarrassed to do it. After all, it was on the train and there were too many people.

If there were not many people outside, Lin Weiwan estimated that with her temper, she would definitely give this confident old lady a few shots.

“Why find a conductor? I said that you young people are ignorant. I am not unreasonable. It is not a big deal for you to change beds with me.

I am old and my legs and feet are not good. My body is not as strong as when I was young. What’s wrong with you young people sleeping on the upper bunk?”

The old lady stopped Ye Jibai from leaving, and her words became warm and tactful, completely different from before.

Lin Weiwan looked directly at Ye Jibai, who opened the door and went to find the conductor.

The conductor just walked into this carriage and happened to meet several people gathered in front and Ye Jibai who was walking over.

Ye Jibai didn’t care where the conductor had been during this time, and directly said that there was an elderly person inside who had a problem and asked the conductor to go and take a look.

When Mrs. Hu saw the conductor coming in, her face changed instantly.

“We don’t have anything to do, just talk about the matter.”

The conductor checked the carriage number and the sleeper number again, “Please show me your tickets.”

Lin Weiwan and Ye Jibai took out their tickets from their pockets and handed them to the conductor.

The conductor looked at the old lady who was looking for tickets in her pockets again.

“Auntie, please show me your tickets.”

The old lady was busy for a while, searching her pockets and then looking through her luggage, “My ticket is gone.”

“Has anyone seen my ticket?” She didn’t forget to look around.

Lin Weiwan is now sure that the grandparents must have sneaked in from some carriage while the conductor was away.

“Auntie, please take your luggage and come with me.”

Having worked as a conductor for so many years, he has encountered all kinds of excuses for evading the ticket on the train. It is not the first time that someone said that the ticket was lost like today.

“I just lost my ticket. Why should I go with you? I am so old and can’t lie anymore.”

Mrs. Hu certainly didn’t want to leave with the conductor. She felt a little regretful now. She should have stopped while she was ahead.

She thought that she was so old and young and thin-skinned that she would be embarrassed to say a few words, so she gave up the lower bunk to herself.

Unexpectedly, this little girl didn’t care about her face at all at such a young age. She didn’t even pretend to be with her boyfriend.

“Auntie, according to our regulations, if you don’t have a ticket, you can get off at the next stop, or you can apply for a replacement ticket. Now please come with me.” The conductor gave the choice directly.

“Oh… I’m old, I forgot where I put the ticket. I’m so old, how can I cheat you? No one’s money is blown by the wind.

I’ve bought the ticket, and you still asked me to buy a new one. Do you have any sympathy?” The old lady said, patting her thigh.

“Auntie, please come with me first, don’t disturb other passengers to rest.” The conductor reminded again.

“I’m not going, I’m not going anywhere, I’m here, I bought the tickets for these two beds, I lost my tickets.” The old lady simply acted like a rogue. No one dared to touch her because of her age.

Hu Xiuxiu’s face was red and blood was about to drip out, and her eyes were red with anxiety, “Grandma…”

“These two beds are empty, no tickets have been sold, and passengers will get on the train at the next stop. Old lady, where is your bed?

If you are right, we can look for the ticket carefully to see where it fell.”

The conductor flipped through the book in his hand to check the bed information.

While looking back, he was ready to call his comrades over. If the old lady still didn’t leave, he would have to drag her away by force.

“I… I just remember that I bought a sleeper ticket, but I forgot which room it was.” Old Mrs. Hu continued to talk nonsense.

“Then you come out first, I’ll help you find it.” The conductor went to help Old Mrs. Hu, and Hu Xiuxiu quickly picked up her luggage and followed her out.

When she passed by Lin Weiwan and Ye Jibai, she bowed to Ye Jibai and apologized embarrassedly, “I’m sorry to bother you.”

Then she ran out again with a red face.

That’s right, she apologized to Ye Jibai. Lin Weiwan looked at the door that was closed again and sat back on her bed.

The train had already started by now, and Lin Weiwan rubbed his forehead.

The train, which was accompanied by the sound of clanging every day, finally arrived in Beijing after two days and two nights. Until the two got off the train, no one came into this sleeper again. After getting off the train, Ye Jibai led Lin Weiwan out of the station.

A little further ahead, there was a military jeep parked.

Ye Jibai walked over and the orderly who was driving the car came over to take the luggage from Ye Jibai.

Ye Jibai took the luggage bag from Lin Weiwan and put it in the trunk.

Lin Weiwan looked at Ye Jibai, “Did you get a car?”

Ye Jibai pulled Lin Weiwan into the car, “This is my father’s. I called home after booking the tickets and asked them to pick us up.”

Lin Weiwan didn’t expect that Ye Jibai’s father would have a car and an orderly. She thought that Ye’s family was extraordinary, but now it might exceed her expectations.

The weather in Beijing in April was very good, without a trace of wind. There were many bicycles on the road, and few motor vehicles.

“Can you take it to the guesthouse?” Lin Weiwan turned to look at Ye Jibai.

Ye Jibai looked at Lin Weiwan beside him, “There are guest rooms at home.”

Lin Weiwan shook her head slightly, “I still want to stay in the guesthouse first.”

Ye Jibai glanced at the orderly in front of him. The two of them couldn’t touch each other in the car, so they could only sit upright.

“I have basically nothing to do these days. If you insist, we will go to the guesthouse first and then take you back.”

Ye Jibai looked at Lin Weiwan’s insistence, thinking that he was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable living in his own home.

“Let’s go to the guesthouse closest to home.” Ye Jibai said to the orderly in front.

Ye Jibai carried Lin Weiwan’s luggage into the house and went out to wait for Lin Weiwan.

Lin Weiwan locked the door and put away the luggage. He checked around, put up the curtains and went directly into the space. She changed into a windbreaker with a white shirt and black trousers, a pair of 90% new leather shoes, and put on her backpack again. She emptied a small luggage bag and put the completely dried ginseng into the wooden box. The luggage bag just fit the wooden box.

Looking at this wild ginseng, it might seem a little too little to carry it alone.

After thinking about it, Lin Weiwan took out a bag of roasted pine nuts and a bag of hazelnuts and put them in the luggage bag.

The three things were not good-looking. Lin Weiwan could only find a bag of Longjing tea, which he bought in Hai City.
