She Lives Well with the Shopping App in the 80s-Chapter 723: Going Back to My Parent’s Home for New Year

Yun Xiaoxiao and her family were catching the night train.

"Xiao Yun, you don’t need to go to the accessory shop tomorrow, we’ll close it for now. Spend a good New Year with your grandma and the others."

"Alright, sister-in-law," Fang Meiyun naturally had no objections.

Now that the New Year had arrived, it was just their family of three, plus Er Dan.

Er Dan didn’t want to go back, as there was no one in his hometown he was concerned about.

On the contrary, there were people he cared about in the Capital City.

"Miss Yun, be careful when you’re away from home."

Yun Xiaoxiao nodded in acknowledgment.

They took out their suitcases, and each of the four family members packed a set of change of clothes.

They also packed some gifts for the children at Second Brother Yun’s house and bought new clothes for their in-laws. No matter what, they had to buy something for the parents of this body as well, plus some New Year goods and some specialties from Capital City, filling up a large tote bag.

They also packed some food.

The family of four took a taxi to the train station.

"Mom, we’re going to Grandma’s house, how many days will we be on the train?"

"We will be on the train for quite a few days, but it won’t be too tough." frёewebηovel.cѳm

They also wanted to see how Second Brother’s noodle shop was doing?

After this visit, they didn’t know when the next one would be.

Actually, they could have taken a plane, which would have been much faster, but Yun Xiaoxiao was afraid that there was no airport nearby, and also the airport was too far away.

They had eaten dinner early before coming to the train station.

Yun Xiaoxiao held one child in each hand, while Zhao Tianlei pulled the suitcase and carried the tote bag, his back also bearing another bag.

The two kids also carried backpacks filled with their textbooks.

During this New Year period, the train station was really crowded, to Yun Xiaoxiao’s surprise. Shouldn’t it be less crowded? After all, the college students should have already gone home, right?

Why were there still so many people at the station?

"Make sure to stick close to me and don’t run off."

Yun Xiaoxiao led the two boys onto the train, where the sleeper compartments were less crowded, though they still struggled to squeeze in.

Zhao Tianlei followed closely behind them.

"Be careful," he said.

Zhao Tianlei hauled the suitcase and tote bag aboard, settled the belongings, and breathed a sigh of relief. They had purchased soft sleeper berths, just perfect for their family of four, in a small section of the car without doors, but with curtains.

"Mom, it’s a bit wider than before," said Da Bao.

Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and patted Da Bao’s head. "It’s a bit wider, and it has only upper and lower bunks, just for our family."

This section of the soft sleeper car was divided into several small compartments.

And it was very close to the dining car as well.

Not long after they boarded, the train started moving, and it was already dark outside.

......

"It’s New Year’s, and the little sister and the others are back in their hometown for the New Year. Right now, we can’t take time off to go to Capital City either," said Second Brother Yun’s noodle shop was doing particularly well, and they had hired a waitress, still barely managing to keep up with the workload.

On the other hand, his father-in-law’s state-run restaurant was becoming increasingly deserted, and it was uncertain how much longer it could hold on.

Second Sister-in-law Yun thought about how, by this time last year, she had already received the things her younger sister-in-law had sent by mail, but this year, she still hadn’t received anything.

She felt awkward about asking, as it might seem like she was eager for the things mailed by her sister-in-law.

"When we do have time in the future, we can always visit Capital City," Second Sister-in-law Yun thought. She had never been out of the province, and they were still some distance from Capital City.

Nowadays, private stores were on the rise, and their department store wasn’t doing as well as before. If it had been past New Year’s, they would have been incredibly busy, but not this year.
