Chapter 269 Poverty is Cancer

When buying the ticket, Lu Ming advised Xinyi that if he bought a "soft sleeper", the journey would take more than 58 hours, nearly three days, and the probability of the plane falling off was very small.

In the end, little results were achieved.

In order to make this journey a little more comfortable, Lu Ming spent more than 3000 yuan to buy a ticket for a two-person luxury soft sleeper box.

To be honest, the price was more expensive than the plane ticket. He dared to fly, but Xinyi didn't dare. She was scared.Tao Xinyi has always taken the high-speed rail or plane since she was a child.

Tao Xinyi didn't buy the ticket for the trip. No one in her family knew how to save money on travel, so she never took a rickety train.

She thought that there were beds on the train to sleep, and soft sleepers could lie down and sleep, but it was only 58 hours.

At first, Tao Xinyi still had the energy to take out "Advanced Algebra" and take a look at it, but it didn't take long before she was shaken to the point of vomiting, but because she had no appetite and didn't eat anything, she couldn't vomit anything, which was extremely uncomfortable.

As soon as Lu Ming got on the train, he lay on the bed and fell asleep when he was still not feeling so uncomfortable.

Before his rebirth, when he was a graduate student, his grandfather was not in good health. He was diagnosed with cancer and had to spend a lot of hard-earned money on treatment. All the pension money he had saved from working on the construction site in the previous years was lost.

Lu Xinjiang had two sons, both of whom were not so promising, so that they were reluctant to pay for their father's medical treatment.

The middle-aged man has a wife who has lost his appearance, a son who cannot stand on his own, and a father who is seriously ill. In fact, he still has some underlying diseases that are immortal.

Lu Guofu was considered a filial man and was willing to give money to his father for treatment.

But when his eldest brother saw that his second brother was so generous, he made an excuse and said that his wife didn't want to, so he gave her more than 1 yuan and said he had no money.

Before Lu Ming took the postgraduate entrance examination, he didn't know that something like this happened in his family. He focused on his studies, scored 374 points, and got into a prestigious graduate school.Then, while others were traveling after their postgraduate exams, he returned home and stayed with him in the hospital in XN City.

Grandpa’s face was sunken, as if there was only a layer of blue-black skin covering his face. During chemotherapy, he would make torturous shouts.

It was the sound of a life longing for death.

Maybe it was too painful, so the doctor always gave me a lot of anesthesia. The needles pierced the skin and flesh, and injected life-threatening drugs into the blood vessels.

Because of this, Grandpa spends very little time awake.

Occasionally, Lu Ming would bump into his grandfather when he was awake, and then hear the most terrifying words he had ever heard in his life beside the hospital bed.

"A Ming, I can't be cured, and grandpa can't be cured. Why spend money and suffer. Your dad is stupid. His money should be left for you to study and find a wife...don't waste money..."

When he was young, Lu Xinjiang helped his family farm. Occasionally, he would lie in the wheat and watch the sun in the sky, and the day would pass.

Oil and water are a good taste that can only be tasted during the Chinese New Year.

Later, when he was old enough, he took a handsome woman as his wife. The woman said that she liked Lu Xinjiang because he was honest, so she pestered him for fun at night, and she had two sons.

I heard that there was a dead daughter before, and she died if she couldn't support her.

Then, when his son got older and had to go to school, Lu Xinjiang went to work on the construction site. He worked from a young man to a middle-aged man, then to an old man. When he retired, he got lung cancer.

Smoke is a good thing.

In a construction site without women, without cigarettes, one cannot be a human being.

Lu Xinjiang has always been the most honest among the workers. He only points out the few days he goes home to see his wife every year, and he smokes and drinks the most.Such a person reaches the end of his life at the age of retirement.

Money is a good thing.Every time grandpa said it was a waste of money, Lu Ming only said, "Don't worry, grandpa, this disease doesn't cost much..." and couldn't say anything else.

Two days before he went to graduate school, he accidentally saw his grandma kneeling down for his father downstairs in the community...

Grandpa was cured for another year, and grandma only lived for one year.

Lu Ming really regretted taking the postgraduate entrance examination. If he had known better, he would have made money earlier if he had just started working.From Xining to Beijing, he only took the train and took the standing ticket twice.

In fact, there is nothing that a grown man can't do if he stands in the car for a day, but occasionally his face will be reflected in the car window, which will make him very sad.

The soft sleeper is something for enjoyment. He hasn't sat on it before, and it's quite comfortable, and he fell asleep when he lay down.

When he woke up, he saw Xin Yi sitting on the soft bed opposite, drinking Coke listlessly, her face a little pale.

Lu Ming didn't say anything. He got out of bed and washed an apple for her, saying, "It will make you feel better if you eat some apples. The train is very rocking."

"Oh." Tao Xinyi took the apple, although she didn't have much appetite, but the apple was given by Lu Ming, as if it had magical powers, a bite would make it much better: "Am I very delicate?

Just now, I went shopping in other compartments. In fact, I am quite comfortable like this.It seems that I have never eaten such hard work. "

Lu Ming's eyes darkened, and he put his fingers on the side of her face: "It's okay, how about we get off at the next stop, transfer to another plane, or rest for a few days."

"I do not want."

Tao Xinyi turned her face away, lying on the bed, biting an apple, and said briskly: "I'll just lie down and sleep for a while."Planes are too dangerous. '

"Row."

Lu Ming didn't say anything else. He stood up and used the faucet at the joint of the carriage to wash his face with a small stream of water. Then he sat on a small chair and looked at the scenery outside the window.

Tao Xinyi, who was lying on the bed, quietly opened her eyes and looked at Lu Ming's side face. She regained some energy and could go on.

Just now, she was walking around on the train, looking at the hard-sleeper carriages, hard-seat carriages, and many people standing in the open space. She thought of the "standing tickets" she saw when buying tickets before.

What is real suffering?

In such a hard environment, Tao Xinyi felt inexplicably grateful that she did not have to endure such hardship, that she would never have to endure such hardship in her life.

If I could come back home, I would be willing to sit on a standing ticket for the rest of my life.

Wandering, it got dark, Tao Xinyi fell asleep, the stars hung in the sky, and the moonlight reflected silver light on the top of the train.Maybe it was because he slept during the day, but at night, Lu Ming couldn't sleep. He bought a bucket of instant noodles when the snack cart passed by.

In order not to affect Xin Yi, he specially changed the carriage to eat.

The smell of braised beef noodles was mixed with the smell that came from nowhere in the carriage. Accompanied by the snoring of travelers, it was really a cheap and disgusting smell.

Lu Ming didn't want to eat it after two bites. He had no appetite.

But in order not to waste it, he still had the courage to finish the remaining instant noodles. After returning home, he ate an apple to suppress the nausea.

He would not throw away the food because he had seen his parents eat leftovers for years.Leftovers cause cancer, but poverty is the real cancer, and hereditary cancer scares people to the core.

Lu Ming sat on a small chair and tossed coins, looking forward to the train arriving at the station.
