"You can step there, but you must take off your shoes. It’s not my bed you’re climbing on, so you can’t be wearing your shoes, right?" Gu Shuangshuang frowned and pointed at the sole of the child’s shoes, "Look, there’s still dog poop sticking to the shoes. We could smell the stink from a mile away."
Gu Shuangshuang covered her nose, and after she said that, the other passengers in the carriage also covered their noses.
The smell in the car did indeed worsen since they boarded.
On this hot day, everyone’s sweating, and this kid probably hasn’t had a bath in days. Knowing they were going out, the adults dressed him in new clothes, but didn’t think to give him a bath.
Seeing the whole car full of people looking down on her, the woman got so angry she practically leapt up.
"Erxiu, sit down." She pushed the little boy onto Gu Shuangshuang’s bed, and as soon as Erxiu’s shoes came off, the unpleasant odor intensified.
She was very angry and walked around the carriage with the shoes, getting close to everyone, "Smell this, all of you smell it! Where does the stink come from? What’s the meaning of this? Are you looking down on us because we come from the countryside?"
After she finished, she threw the shoes onto the ground with a slap. They bounced off the floor and hit An Hao, who was bending down to pick something up, right in the face, leaving a red mark on her forehead from the hard shoe.
"What are you doing, big sister?" An Hao originally didn’t want to speak up, after all, they had just boarded, and she felt that any small quirks or faults could be tolerated to some degree.
Moreover, seeing everyone in the carriage with looks of disgust, she surely wouldn’t be feeling comfortable either.
But, after all, this is a public place, not your own home. Everything has its limits; you can’t go too far.
"Oh my, did that hit you? I am truly sorry," the woman said with a smile.
An Hao, seeing her attitude was still somewhat reasonable, thought it’s best not to make a fuss while traveling, so she decided to let it go.
She was just about to say ’no problem’ when she heard the other person say, "The shoe doesn’t have eyes, but don’t you have eyes? You saw the shoe coming, why did you move towards it? Are you stupid or what?"
"I don’t have eyes? I’m stupid? You’re really talking nonsense here." An Hao was hearing someone talk to her for the first time.
Such a hateful and unreasonable person.
"Exactly, I’m saying, how can you, old lady, have such low standards? Don’t you have any basic manners?" Gu Shuangshuang couldn’t stay seated any longer and stood up.
She moved a bit too violently when standing up and accidentally brushed against the boy, who immediately cried out, "She hit me! She hit me!"
Seeing her son cry, the woman’s face darkened and her brows furrowed as she puffed up her chest and walked over to Gu Shuangshuang, "You little vixen! You’ve really done it now! I, Feng Chunhua, have lived for half a lifetime, and nobody in the village dares to mess with me. And now I should let a little demon like you bully me!"
After finishing her words, her chubby hand grabbed Gu Shuangshuang’s hair and started pulling.
Gu Shuangshuang was caught unprepared and started crying from the pain. An Hao realized things were getting out of hand and quickly went to help.
She eyed the woman’s feet, wearing thin high heels, and stomped hard on her instep.
"Ah!" Feng Chunhua let out a scream like a slaughtered pig and sat on the floor of the train compartment, clutching her agonizingly painful foot, "Somebody help! Help me! These city folks are bullying us country people!"
Erxiu started crying loudly as well, and the carriage descended into chaos.
"This is so frustrating! To encounter such a mess on a trip out," Gu Shuangshuang, with her sharp tongue, began cursing.
Upon hearing this, Feng Chunhua immediately stopped crying, picked up the sole of her shoe from the ground, and flung it towards Gu Shuangshuang.
