Jiang Zhiyi had already prepared to escape.
Her home was on the second floor, not very high from the ground, so she followed what she saw in a book and rolled the sheets into ropes and tied them together. Then, after her parents had gone to work, she secretly slid down from the window.
Zhou Huaying didn't expect Jiang Zhiyi to run away secretly, and she didn't search her pocket money.
Jiang Zhiyi's living expenses were cut off, but she still had Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Zhida giving her money from time to time, as well as her New Year's money, so she was not short of money.
She took all the money with her when she ran away.
Jiang Zhiyi had beautiful thoughts. When she arrived in Yangcheng, she first called her cousin Jiang Zhida. Brother Qian Ran was in Yangcheng, so she would always have a place to stay.
By then, no one will care about her and no one will restrict her. She can realize any ideals and ambitions she wants, just like "the sky is high and the birds fly freely, the sea is wide and the fish leap freely".
With this beautiful fantasy in mind, Jiang Zhiyi ran to the train station.
She had no experience of traveling far away. Although she knew to be on guard against strangers, she was not careful with her money. Right after she bought the ticket, all the money in Jiang Zhiyi's pocket was deducted and stolen.
The pants she was wearing were cut to the point that her skin was exposed underneath, and she didn't feel anything until someone reminded her on the train. Her bag was also cut.
Jiang Zhiyi's money was divided between these two places, and not a cent was left. She immediately wanted to kneel on the ground and cry.
But this is the path she chose, and it was her own fault for not thinking it through. She had to endure the loss of money. Jiang Zhiyi held back her tears again and went to the bathroom to change her pants.
The person who reminded Jiang Zhiyi was a friendly-looking girl. After returning from the toilet, Jiang Zhiyi thanked her and squeezed into the innermost hard seat to endure the rest of the journey.
The kind-looking girl talked to Jiang Zhiyi and asked her where she was going. Her voice was gentle and her smile was friendly. Jiang Zhiyi remembered what Jiang Zhida had said before: when taking a train, you can't trust anyone, even those who have helped you.
So Jiang Zhiyi didn't say anything, just said she was going to find her brother, who was waiting for her at the finish line.
The friendly girl asked her if she was going out to work. She said yes and was planning to go to Guangzhou to see the world.
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head: "I'm not."
Section 191
The rest refused to say anything more and turned their heads to the window, pretending to enjoy the scenery.
The distance from Beijing to Guangzhou is far, and Jiang Zhiyi had no money, so he was forced to cancel his original plan to buy food on the bus.
Fortunately, when she ran out, she saw the snacks on the table in her room, and thought it would be a waste if she didn't eat them, so she stuffed them all into her bag. Otherwise, she would have fainted from hunger in the car during this two or three-day journey.
There was free hot water on the bus, so Jiang Zhiyi looked at the hot water and snacks, tried to save as much as possible, and finally arrived in Guangzhou.
Jiang Zhiyi wanted to cry whenever she thought about the sadness and pain along the way.
When she got off the bus, the kind-looking girl who had been sitting with her all the way suddenly grabbed her and shouted, "Cousin, where are you going? We are going to seek refuge with our uncle, don't get lost."
Jiang Zhiyi quickly shook her arm off, and immediately remembered the various methods that Jiang Zhida had told her about kidnappers: "Let me go! I don't know you, I'm not your cousin! Help, this guy is a kidnapper!"
But Jiang Zhiyi tried her best but couldn't get rid of the girl. She was so anxious that she wanted to cry, but no one helped her.
