Chapter 479: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (8)

The three people finally arrived at the train station. At this moment, Su Xiangran finally witnessed the real appearance of the old train station with her own eyes.

Completely different from today's modern high-speed rail stations, this place is filled with a strong atmosphere of life.

Unlike the sparsely populated small train station in Jincheng, the Haicheng train station is bustling with people, and passengers are rushing to catch the train with large and small bags in their hands and shoulders.

The vendors were shouting loudly on the platform, selling all kinds of snacks and goods, and the hawking sounds were endless;

What's more, a group of clever newsboys were weaving in and out of the crowded crowd like fish in water, shouting the latest front-page headlines of the day at the top of their lungs.

"Xiao Ran, can I buy you something to eat?" Su Yanqing saw his sister staring at the vendors and thought she was hungry, so he asked and suggested.

Before Su Xiangran could answer, their mother Cao Wanning made an unexpected move - she reached out to stop a newsboy and bought a newspaper published that day.

"Mother, this Ta Kung Pao mostly publishes current affairs." Su Yanqing kindly reminded, "If you want to read some legendary stories or serialized novels, you may have to go to those tabloids with slightly lower sales to find them."

Cao Wanning glanced at his son before saying, "I'm going to see your uncle in the next few days. If you don't understand these things, there will be nothing to talk to him about."

Knowing that Cao Wanning did not buy the wrong newspaper, Su Yanqing did not say anything else, but hired two rickshaws.

"Just go back to school!" Cao Wanning said to him, "Xiao Ran and I will find a hotel to stay in first. We will go to school to find you after we meet your uncle tomorrow."

"But shouldn't Xiaoran go to school with me?" Su Yanqing was afraid that his mother would go back on her word about letting his sister go to school, so he wanted to bring Su Xiangran with him.

Cao Wanning took Su Xiangran to another rickshaw. Before the rickshaw started moving, she turned back and said to her son, "Don't worry, it won't affect your sister's enrollment."

Su Yanqing had no choice but to go back to school as his mother said. As soon as he entered the dormitory, he ran into Cao Shixun who knew that he had returned to school.

"Why are you alone?" Cao Shixun looked behind him, "Didn't you say you would bring your sister with you to enroll? My sister has already started classes here."

"My mother said that since we are in Haicheng, we should take Xiao Ran to your house first, greet the elders, and then let Xiao Ran come to school." Su Yanqing explained, "Besides, the enrollment procedures have not been completed yet!

Xiao Ran is here, but there is no place to stay!"

"What's the big deal? Can't she just live here with you?" Cao Shixun said disapprovingly, "Your sister is only six years old, and you're the only one here, why can't she live with you!"

"You don't know anything, and you're just talking nonsense here." Song Chengjing appeared at the door of the room with a stack of papers in his hand, "Yanqing, this is your sister's admission information and the school regulations of the girls' school. I have sorted it out.

Just bring your sister over to report within five days.

I heard from your parents before that you are planning to live out together so that you can take care of each other. Have you found a house yet?"

When Su Yanqing heard Song Chengjing mention this, he remembered that he still had to find a house. He shook his head and said, "Today is our first day here, and we don't have any rules for the house yet."

"Hey! What do I think of this?" Cao Shixun patted Su Yanqing on the shoulder, "Just live in my house! Why are you looking for another house?"

Su Yanqing didn't say anything. He didn't want to live in Cao's family. His sister was soft and cute, but a girl from Cao's family?

Forget it! It would be bad if I was influenced by either side.

On the other hand, Cao Wanning took Su Xiangran to find a hotel close to Cao's house, and also made an agreement with the rickshaw driver to pick them up to Cao's house early the next morning.

After arriving at the hotel and putting down her luggage, Cao Wanning did not look at the newspaper she had bought earlier, but instead took out a light blue cheongsam from the suitcase.

Of course, this cheongsam is different from the popular figure-hugging cheongsams nowadays. Instead, it has a stand-up collar, a large front, large inverted sleeves, and a hem that reaches the middle of the calf. The body of the cheongsam is also straight and loose, and the style is conservative.

"Mom, what's this dress of yours?" Su Xiangran didn't quite understand why her mother chose this dress.

This cheongsam looks a bit old, and the color of the clothes has faded.

Cao Wanning did not answer her daughter's question immediately, but took out a set of girls' jacket and skirt with a white background and blue flowers from the box.

The key point is that this dress doesn’t look new.

"Wear this dress to meet your uncle tomorrow." Cao Wanning said to Su Xiangran at this moment, "Don't look at this dress as it's half-new, but your uncle will like you when he sees you wearing it.

Xiao Ran! In the days ahead, I may not always be by your side. Even if you don’t understand what I said to you today, you must remember it firmly.

Women! Brains are important, but appearance can also be your weapon. "

After Cao Wanning said this, she didn't say anything else. Instead, she took the light blue cheongsam and compared it with her body, with a smile that was slightly meaningful on the corner of her mouth.

At this moment, Su Xiangran realized that Cao Wanning was not as weak and ignorant as she had seen before.

Moreover, looking at the situation in the Su family's backyard, it was probably not entirely because Su Weichen was afraid of the power of the Cao family. A lot of this was also due to Cao Wanning's tricks.
