The female educated youth's face suddenly turned red after being scolded by Jiang Shu.

She glared at Jiang Shu angrily, and then said to the people in the car, "Whoever is willing to give up the window seat to me, I will give him a dollar."

Upon hearing that she was willing to pay, a female educated youth sitting by the window opposite Jiang Shu immediately stood up and said to her, "Comrade, I will give you my seat."

So the female educated youth who asked Jiang Shu to give up her seat sat opposite Jiang Shu.

When she sat down, she snorted deliberately and raised her chin, as if she wanted to show off to Jiang Shu.

Jiang Shu is too lazy to deal with this kind of person. How much money does he have? It was as if she was short of the dollar.

But the man didn't bother with anything, so Jiang Shu didn't argue with her.

The educated youth who went to the countryside came up one after another, and basically everyone brought a lot of luggage.

Waiting for everyone to arrive, when the train departure time comes, the train sets off.

The trains at this time were not traveling very fast, not as fast as the high-speed trains and airplanes of later generations.

There were many educated youths in the car, so everyone introduced them together.

There were a total of six people sitting in Jiang Shu's row, and including the one opposite, there were a total of twelve people.

With one person taking the lead in introducing themselves, others followed suit.

After listening to everyone's introduction, Jiang Shu learned that the female educated youth sitting opposite Jiang Shu was named Shen Jiaojiao.

After Jiang Shu heard the name, the corners of her lips raised slightly, Shen Jiaojiao, she really lived up to her name, and she was very delicate.

After waiting for these people to introduce themselves, they saw a female educated youth asking Jiang Shu, "Hello, comrade, you haven't introduced yourself yet."

The female educated youth who was talking to Jiang Shu was called Zhang Meng.

Jiang Shu didn't want to get involved in this matter. After all, she had no interest in these educated youths. She went to the countryside to meet her parents and help them live an easier life in the countryside.

But now she didn't want to be special. Seeing that everyone was asking about her, Jiang Shu introduced herself, "My name is Jiang Shu."

After listening to Jiang Shu's answer, Zhang Meng asked again, "Comrade Jiang Shu, don't you have any hobbies? We have talked too much, why don't you introduce yourself more?"

Jiang Shu then added, "I don't have any special hobbies. I just like sleeping and cooking. This should be fine, right?"

Jiang Shu's words made many educated youths in the car laugh.

Who doesn’t like sleeping while working? What kind of hobby is this?

Zhang Meng saw that Jiang Shu didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions.

The train continued to move, and the educated youths gathered together and chatted about each other.

The main thing is that if we don’t chat, we won’t be able to do much on the road.

Jiang Shu listened to their chat without interfering, but looked at the scenery outside the window.

After the train left the city, there was a green rice field outside.

Compared with later generations, although there was no urban construction at this time, the natural scenery was really good.

At this time, the windows on the train are open, and when the train moves, the wind from outside will flow in.

The wind also carries the smell of earth, which is very pleasant.

Jiang Shu just watched the whole journey. When it was time for lunch, the conductors on the train had already started selling.

Meals purchased on the train do not require a ticket, but the price will be higher.

Many educated youths did not buy anything but brought their own food.

Before getting on the bus, they made pancakes at home and took the steamed buns to eat on the road.

If the things in the car are expensive, they are certainly more cost-effective than not having them at home.

In this era, most people's conditions are relatively poor, and they save what they can.

Shen Jiaojiao's family was in good condition, so she asked the flight attendant for a braised pork lunch box.

A meal is not cheap, it costs one yuan.

The educated youths in the car all looked at Shen Jiaojiao with envy. This meal was equivalent to a day's salary of an ordinary worker, and she was really willing to give it up.

Jiang Shu did not buy food on the train, but took out a lunch box.

The lunch boxes at this time were aluminum lunch boxes, and workers used such lunch boxes to take meals with them.

This lunch box was given to her by Sister Liu early in the morning.

Knowing that she was going to the countryside today, Sister Liu specially prepared some food for her.

Jiang Shu accepted Sister Liu's intention and took the stuff that Sister Liu had stuffed her with at noon, planning to deal with it.

Opening the lunch box, Jiang Shu found that the lunch box was filled with dumplings.

At this time, fine grains are precious. Even in the city, many people are reluctant to eat a meal of white flour dumplings.

After Jiang Shu opened the dumplings in the lunch box, the people in the car also cast envious glances at her.

Jiang Shu didn't pay attention to the looks in these people's eyes and started eating by herself.

She thought it was just an ordinary white flour dumpling, but after taking a bite, Jiang Shu realized that these were not ordinary dumplings, but dumplings filled with meat.

Authentic local pork was raised in the 1970s. Although the dumplings are not made in any special way, the dumplings made from such authentic local pork taste very good.

Jiang Shu's eyes started to heat up when she knew they were dumplings stuffed with meat. In fact, there were many people who cared about her and treated her well.

Jiang Shu will remember these people who are kind to her in her heart, and if she has the opportunity to repay them in the future, she will definitely repay them well.

Others in the car smelled the aroma of meat and knew that Jiang Shu was eating dumplings stuffed with meat. They looked at Jiang Shu with even more envy.

But envy is envy, and no one has the nerve to ask others to try dumplings, so they can only silently chew their own steamed buns and swallow their saliva.

When the flight attendant brought the lunch box, Shen Jiaojiao also started eating.

However, after tasting the taste of the lunch, Shen Jiaojiao frowned and complained, "It doesn't taste good. The food on this train is just not good."

Shen Jiaojiao's words directly triggered a wave of hatred.

No matter how unpalatable it is, it's still braised pork. How many people want to eat meat but can't afford it?

Shen Jiaojiao could eat it, but she actually disliked the taste.

Shen Jiaojiao said, put the lunch box on the table, took a pack of biscuits from her bag and started eating.

Zhang Meng looked at the lunch box that Shen Jiaojiao put on the table and asked her, "Shen Zhiqing, don't you even eat this lunch?"

Shen Jiaojiao snorted, "If you don't eat it, how can I eat it if it tastes so bad?"

Zhang Meng swallowed, and then asked, "Shen Zhiqing, if you don't want to eat, can you give it to me? So as not to waste it!"

Shen Jiaojiao said, "You can eat it if you want, but remember to clean the lunch box for me after you finish eating."

Zhang Mengjian got a box lunch for nothing, so he didn't have any opinions.

Isn't it just washing dishes? What's so hard about this? If you can exchange for a lunch box with meat, you will make a lot of money, right?

"no problem!"

After saying that, Zhang Meng poured Shen Jiaojiao's lunch box into his own lunch box, and then ate it hungrily.

Such fragrant braised pork was obviously delicious, but Shen Jiaojiao actually said it was not delicious.

As expected, people are so infuriating. Zhang Meng thinks it must be because Shen Jiaojiao's family conditions are too good. She usually eats too many good things and now she dislikes the lunch boxes on the train.
