Chapter 280 Minghui Don’t Say Anything

After she finished talking to Uncle Pei, she remembered as she walked outside that she hadn't read Gu Si's reply yet. She used her mind and soul to scan the space of the plane communication group, divided her mind and typed quickly.

She hadn't told them yet that the train would be delayed, and she estimated that it would be quite late.

I don’t know when the ice outside will thaw, and even if the train starts moving, it will definitely slow down as my second uncle said.

This communicator is a bit strange. When it is placed in her companion space or storage bag, it cannot receive any signal. But when it is placed in the group space of the plane communication group, the signal is full.

I don't really understand how this works, but it works.

Gu Si and Pei Yanning have been looking at the sky ever since it started snowing!
They had expected what Lingxi said.

However, they did not have many worries. There was no shortage of food and drink, and Uncle Pei and Old Man Pei Yu were both extremely reliable. Therefore, they only told Lingxi to take good care of herself and not to run around.

Lingxi, who was being told off like a child, said: "..."

[Okay, okay! Got it! ]

Those who can live in the cadre carriage are all of a certain level, and these people, apart from other things, have good family conditions, the quality of the passengers is relatively higher, and the sanitary conditions are still very good.

Lingxi went to the bathroom and said this while washing her hands. She was a little impatient, but the smile on her lips showed that she was very happy.

At this moment, the door of the next carriage was suddenly pushed open.

A girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a light blue jacket and skirt and a cotton coat, came out.

She is pretty, and her walking posture and facial expression are very ladylike. Plus, she is wearing...

She was wearing the same kind of clothes that the women from the Gejiu clan wore that Lingxi occasionally saw when she was a child and followed Pei Yanning out to "adventure".

Lingxi hasn't seen anyone wearing this kind of jacket and skirt for a long time, but it doesn't look out of place on her, and it even looks a bit like a lady from a noble family.

She glanced at the girl stealthily a few times and felt a little tempted. This girl looked much better than her current gray clothes.

Lingxi's eyes were shining, and she was thinking about how to do it.

The girl was stunned for a moment, then she smiled gently, nodded slightly, and continued to walk towards the bathroom.

Lingxi was thinking about her clothes. She silently shook the water off her hands and turned back to the box.

Uncle Pei retracted his gaze when he saw her come back and continued the previous topic with the old man.

In addition to food problems, this snowstorm also brought about heating problems.

They were not worried about the train stopping on the road, but because of the snow, let alone stopping at this time, even if it really started moving, it would have to slow down by at least one third or even half to ensure safety on the road.

This means that the train will take at least one more day to run, and if there are any other problems, it will take even longer.

Is there enough coal on the train?

Will the heating stop?
It seems that the basket of charcoal they replaced when they changed the stove earlier should be used sparingly.

Lingxi just listened and went over to the three little ones. The three little ones were lying on the table obediently playing with the Kongming lock.

But little friend Minghui...

Lingxi patted his head.

"What are you looking at?"

Lingxi also stuck her head out, but couldn’t see anything here. It was all white. Was she looking at snow?

As soon as the new year came, Lingxi was amused by her own thoughts.

Little Minghui used to make fun of the three little ones.

Minghui cried out, and he looked around stealthily, then lowered his voice and said stealthily, "Someone just fell out of the window to pee." Lingxi: "..."

!!!

Her expression stiffened.

Uncle Pei was speechless, "Minghui, don't say anything."

Minghui also felt that the adult was not polite. He had not urinated or defecated anywhere since he was four years old. However -

"I think that person looks familiar, but I can't remember when I've seen him before."

Uncle Pei was surprised.

Minghui's memory has been trained since he was a child, but even so, he still can't remember anything, which really makes him curious.

As they were talking, Pei Yu came back. He took off his coat and draped it on the sofa, with the wet part of the coat placed near the fire to dry. "The road is open."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the train whistle sounded.

Pei Yu talked about what happened just now: "Lao Hei's nephew was also on the train. I saw him from a distance just now, but he didn't notice me. I thought he probably didn't know me, so I didn't say hello."

Lao Hei has a good relationship with them. His nephew...

The family has always kept their distance from him.

Uncle Pei and Pei Jin were present when Pei Fuzhu was hypnotized. Pei Yu and Pei Xuan were told about it later, but he also knew about Lingxi's marriage in Pei Hongzhu's previous life, and found it a bit strange.

Pei Yu just said it casually, but Minghui clapped his hands.

"Yeah!

It was him, the one I saw on the day we ate fish."

Minghui immediately connected the scenes together and added: "Everyone else's face and body were clean that day, but his face was covered with mud and water. No wonder I felt like he looked like him, but I couldn't remember for a moment!"

Uncle Pei: "..."

Do you remember what you said before about that person climbing out the window?

Lingxi: “…”

!!!
-
The train was running at a constant speed in a short time. As expected, the speed was reduced by half. They had just stopped for more than an hour, and now the train had not even traveled half the distance.

At this speed, it would probably take another day and most of the night, and we would be lucky to get to the station.
-
Just like that, slowly, the sky turned dark and then lightened up again.

At normal driving speed, we would have arrived at the station by now.

Lingxi looked out through the window. The goose-feather-sized snow showed signs of decreasing, and the sky and the earth turned pure white. However, they didn't know where they were in the wilderness, and they couldn't even see the outline of a house.

She yawned, and Uncle Pei thought she was anxious and tried to comfort her.

"At this rate, we'll get to the station tonight, late at night or early in the morning. Don't worry."

Lingxi nodded.

Lingxi was not in a hurry. Some people on the train were getting very anxious. It was the three-year difficult period and supplies were extremely scarce. Many people only brought steamed corn bread, wild vegetables, dumplings, and sweet potatoes with them when they got on the train, and they calculated that they only had enough for one a day.

Even those who are better off, with only one meal a day, are almost out of food by now.

There was no worst, only worse. In the afternoon, the heating supply on the train was out of service. Even the sleeper compartment where Lingxi and the others were sitting felt a little cold, not to mention the hard seats outside.

The train is reducing the amount of coal used, and the conductor is also in a difficult situation because the snow is too heavy.

There is no way to avoid reducing the number of passengers. Even if we reduce the number of passengers, it will barely be enough to support us to the next station, not to mention the terminal. The train conductor here is thinking of going to the next station to see if he can borrow some passengers for emergency use.
