Chapter 217: Chapter 217 Sending Off Mother Yun

If she sent it over to the provincial city, she wouldn’t be able to return today.

Mother Yun sighed, "I have no problem."

It was her last visit to the county town.

The post office could sell train tickets, but it depended on luck, and it seemed they only sold them in the morning.

They headed towards the post office to buy one.

Nowadays, no ID card was needed, just a letter of introduction if you were travelling.

"Comrade, my mom’s foot is somewhat swollen. Could we buy a sleeping berth ticket? I’m an Educated Youth, and we haven’t seen each other in years..."

Anyway, Xiaoxiao said quite a few persuasive words.

"You can buy one." The ticket seller, hassled by Xiaoxiao to no end, particularly because train tickets weren’t cheap in those days.

yuan, but Xiaoxiao gave her 25 yuan.

"Thank you, sister."

"Thank you, auntie..." Da Bao also hurriedly added sweetly.

After leaving there, Xiaoxiao gave the train ticket to Mother Yun.

"It’s a six o’clock ticket. After having lunch and hurrying over, you shouldn’t be late."

Mother Yun was stunned to see it was for a sleeping berth.

She was a bit anxious when she came here and had bought a hard seat.

"Nowadays, the county town has Individual merchants, though not many. Let’s go eat first."

Eat?

Isn’t it a bit early now?

They left at seven, reached the town at 7:40, waited ten minutes for the bus, and it took an hour and a half to get to the county town plus twenty minutes to walk here and buy the train ticket.

"It’s still early for lunch."

Is it still early?

Carrying things while shopping is somewhat troublesome.

They can’t be stored, and you can’t keep carrying them.

"Go to the bus station. I’ll head over early, and you go back early. If there’s no bus, you’ll have to walk back with Da Bao," Mother Yun said, looking at the mismatched pair who could be mistaken for siblings rather than mother and son.

Even if she didn’t want to admit it, she had to acknowledge that her unseen son-in-law really did a great job raising her daughter.

"Is it a bit too early to go now?"

"There’s a waiting hall..."

"Well, alright then!"

The three of them headed towards the bus station.

Nowadays, the county town wasn’t that large, but it was still much larger than the town.

"We’re here, let’s send a telegram..."

"Okay."

Mother Yun wasn’t new to traveling far.

Watching the vehicle depart, her daughter and grandson still stood there, watching her car drive away.

"Da Bao, let’s go. Mom will take you to the department store to look around."

"Mom, let’s just go back, it costs money."

Now that Grandma had left, there was no worry of her taking Mom away; maybe they shouldn’t buy anything.

"No way, we don’t come to the county town often. How can we not buy something? Let’s go..."

But it costs money.

"We also need to buy books. We’ll have a good look around today."

Though they couldn’t take goods out to sell, they could still take Da Bao around the county town.

"Da Bao, that’s a bookstore. Let’s go take a look, pick out the books you want. This doesn’t need a ticket..."

In front of Xinhua Bookstore.

Xiaoxiao pulled Da Bao inside.

It was Da Bao’s first time seeing so many books. There were many books, but he couldn’t recognize many of the characters. He would surely flip through the dictionary when he got home to learn more characters.

There weren’t many people buying books, just a few scattered here and there.

"Mom, can I buy this book?"

How is Steel Tempered?

Son, are you being too forward-thinking?

You’re still a child; you don’t need to read such advanced books.

"Of course, you can."

Indulge the child’s curiosity.

Still, Xiaoxiao chose an ancient poetry book to cultivate the temperament of the two brothers.

However, books in this era really weren’t cheap; the two books cost twelve yuan.
