Chapter 199: Not Sociable

He boiled some water and returned to the carriage.

He found two big white steamed buns in his bag.

These were stuffed into his bag by several female educated youth before he left, so that he could eat them on the way.

He found another bag of milk powder.

These were some things Jiang Yifan brought for him, including milk essence, milk powder, white sugar, brown sugar, biscuits and the like.

They came in handy.

The girl sitting next to her swallowed her saliva when she saw the big white steamed buns she took out.

These days, even the families of intellectuals in the city are not rich. Most of them mainly eat coarse grains, and fine grains can only be eaten during festivals.

Not everyone can eat white flour steamed buns.

Seeing Xia Zhi leave with steamed buns and milk powder, the two female educated youth next to him whispered.

Xia Zhi came to the middle of the carriage and saw the mother and her two children still doing it here. He knew that they probably didn't buy a seat ticket, so they could only squeeze in this place.

He walked over quietly.

The baby in her arms must have cried too much and fell asleep in her mother's arms.

The little girl lay on her mother's lap.

The woman's eyes were slightly red.

She held the baby in her arms with one hand and touched her daughter's hair with the other.

Turning around now, I could see clearly that the woman was thin and her face was sallow. No wonder the child had no milk.

Seeing Xia Zhi coming over, the woman hurriedly lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with her hands.

Xia Zhi stuffed the white steamed buns and milk powder into the woman's hands.

The woman was startled.

"This, comrade, what is this for?"

"For the child!"

The woman hurriedly stood up and lay on her lap. The little girl who was dozing there almost fell down.

The woman supported the child and said hurriedly,

"Comrade, I can't take this, it's too expensive."

"It's not for you. Adults can hold on, but can children? Everyone has a time of hardship. Don't say anything, just take it."

Xia Zhi stuffed it into her hand and turned away without asking her name or surname, nor asking her where she was going.

The woman was moved to tears.

The little girl swallowed her saliva when she saw the big white steamed bun in her mother's hand.

The woman broke off a small piece of steamed bun for her daughter and stuffed it into her hand.

"Xiaohong, remember the aunt just now, she is the lifesaver of our family."

Xiaohong ate voraciously, while opening her ignorant eyes and nodding hard at her mother.

Xia Zhi returned to his seat empty-handed. The girl next to him saw this scene and her eyes immediately flashed.

Smiled and talked.

"Comrade, where are you going?"

"Northeastern Wilderness!"

The girl next to him laughed when she heard this.

"Comrade, my last name is Wang, Wang Mei, and we are also going to Northern Wilderness. What's your last name? What's your name? We may still be comrades together in the future."

Xia Zhi smiled.

"My name is Xia Zhi."

Wang Mei immediately introduced herself to everyone in a familiar way.

"These are all the educated youth who went to the countryside with us. This is Comrade Xia Zhi, and we are all going to the Northern Wilderness Farm."

Everyone was obviously still wary of Xia Zhi, a stranger, and at most they just said hello. No one was as familiar as Wang Mei.

Xia Zhi also smiled at everyone, of course knowing that the final destination of this train was the same place.

Took out the steamed buns and started eating with pickles and boiled water.

Wang Mei swallowed her saliva.

"Xiazhi, your family is so nice to you. They actually brought you so much dry food before you left.

They also brought so much luggage, unlike us. My mother was in a hurry when she left, and there was nothing to eat at home, so she only brought two sorghum cakes."

She smiled and said to the girl beside her,

"I ate them all in one meal, and now we have to starve."

"I still have steamed bread here, otherwise we can share it among several people! There is still a long time, and this train will take two days and three nights.

Let's help each other."

"Yes, there is still a long time, let's share some food, otherwise you won't be able to carry it to the farm."

After hearing this, Xiazhi had no expression on his face, and continued to eat his steamed buns and pickles by himself.

Not only did he not express his intention, but he also had no intention of joining.

Wang Mei had been observing Xiazhi, and originally thought that Xiazhi knew them all.

After hearing this from her friend, Xiazhi must feel embarrassed to eat alone.

Will also join them.

At that time, Xia Zhi's white flour buns would naturally have to be divided, but who knew that this girl was different from what everyone imagined, and she was not thin-skinned at all.

Their words were like wind in her ears, and she didn't hear them at all.

Wang Mei winked at the girl next to her.

The girl who said she wanted to divide the steamed buns immediately stood up and said with a smile.

"Comrade Xia Zhi, we all have to work together to get through the difficulties, do you want to join us?

We help each other, and we will have someone to rely on when we get to the farm in the future.

There is strength in numbers, don't you think?"

It is obvious that their purpose is to tie Xia Zhi to them, which is a disguised way of taking advantage.

When it comes to this point, most people can't save face and will definitely agree, but unfortunately they met Xia Zhi, who is not an ordinary person.

Xia Zhi smiled and shook his head,

"No need. I don't eat with strangers."

This refusal was very straightforward, and the words were as clear as they could be.

The faces of these educated youths who were rejected suddenly changed obviously.

There were a few girls who had the same idea as Wang Mei. Real things these days are all valuable, but when they saw Xia Zhi, they actually took out steamed buns and gave them to others.

They naturally feel that life here should be easier now, and things are relatively rich.

So this is because they want to take advantage of Xia Zhi. Generally, people from wealthy families always have a good reputation. I think this Xia Zhi will not reject their request.

Who would have thought that Xia Zhi would refuse so openly.

"Comrade Xia Zhi, aren't you with us?

We are all on the same destination and will definitely be a farm in the future. "

"It's only good for everyone to get to know each other."

Wang Mei immediately started to persuade. After all, she was the one who came up with the idea in advance.

They all come from the same place and basically know each other.

If this matter fails, it will inevitably cause her prestige to decline in the eyes of these friends.

"No!"

Xia Zhi lowered her head and ate her food seriously.

It shows that we are very serious about distancing ourselves from these people.

Everyone's expressions turned ugly.

The atmosphere in this carriage immediately became a little awkward.

Several people ate the food in their hands silently. Just now, they were planning to share it with everyone, but now no one was willing to take out their own food and share it with others.

Wang Mei gritted her teeth.

This summer solstice is really unsociable.
