Chapter 157: Arriving at the Station
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the ticket seller couldn’t afford to lose face. She only packed her share and then passed the rest to the elderly woman.
After all the wild vegetables were distributed, Jiang Xia uncovered Jiang Chuan’s bamboo basket and packed some for the elderly woman.
“Child, that’s enough.” The elderly woman couldn’t believe that her little action brought such good fortune. She couldn’t stop smiling and kept praising how obedient Jiang Xia was.
The people watching from the side were filled with regret, wishing they had thought of seizing such an opportunity at the time.
Just as the distribution of wild vegetables was nearly finished, the bus also arrived at the station.
The group of people who were just regretting set aside their unhappiness and got off the bus.
Jiang Xia also prepared to get off the bus, with a backpack on her shoulders. When she looked up, she saw Lin Yan still glaring at her fiercely.
Most of the people on the bus had left, and even the ticket seller, who was the only one who supported Lin Yan, had gotten off the bus in advance. Jiang Xia naturally had nothing to worry about.
Jiang Xia approached Lin Yan and said, “Are you afraid of toads? You’d better be careful, or else if it rains one day, and a toad jumps onto your bed, don’t blame it on fate then.”
“You!” Lin Yan stared at Jiang Xia wide-eyed, as if she wanted to swallow her.
She wanted to retort, but everyone said they hadn’t seen any toad. She wasn’t even sure if she was just seeing things.
Moreover, everyone now sees Jiang Xia as a good child who knew how to repay kindness. No matter how she explains, people would think she’s making a fuss.
Never treated this way, Lin Yan struggled to swallow her anger, and what’s more infuriating is that her three minions were siding with Jiang Xia.
Afterwards, Lin Yan directed her resentment towards Jiang Xia at her three minions.
“Sister Lin, let’s go. Don’t stoop to her level.”
“Yeah, Sister Lin, look how poor they are.”
“Exactly, who uses grain tickets to exchange for wild vegetables nowadays? It’s simply a waste.”
Before getting off the bus, the three minions remembered that they came to the city with Lin Yan to find a job. And they had just helped someone else.
Fearing that Lin Yan might be angry, they started to side with her again.
Although the three of them did not have a good impression of Lin Yan and thought that Lin Yan most likely had a problem with her eyes, now that it concerned their future, they did not dare to say it out loud.
However, it’s a pity. If they weren’t on Lin Yan’s side, maybe they could have traded their grain tickets for some wild vegetables.
They were given grain tickets when they left home to bring back some grain.
But they were villagers after all, and probably couldn’t get much wild vegetables with their grain tickets.
What they said was partly to please Lin Yan, and partly to satisfy their own little minds.
As for Lin Yan, the moment someone spoke well of her, she forgot the unpleasantness, resumed her ‘city girl’ demeanor, and got off the bus with her head held high.
“These three minions are really loyal, being insulted like that and still willing to follow her. And that woman, can’t she tell these three minions don’t really want to follow her?” The elderly woman, who traded wild vegetables with her cloth ticket, said after Lin Yan and her group left.
After all, what she said wasn’t very nice, and it was better not to say it directly to people’s faces, to avoid trouble for herself.
When Jiang Xia heard the elderly lady’s words, she couldn’t help but chat with her. After learning that her surname was Tian, Jiang Xia called her Auntie Tian repeatedly, which made her very happy.
The elderly lady’s name was Tian Cui, and she was the head of the women’s department. After talking with the father and daughter for a while, she was about to leave.
Before leaving, she gave her home address to the father and daughter, reminding them earnestly that if they had more wild vegetables in the future, they should not forget to deliver some to her house.
She also mentioned that if they ever came to town and had nowhere to go, they could come to her house. Although her house wasn’t large, accommodating them for one night would not be a problem..
