Chapter 376 Escaping the Huang Mansion 42

"Go by train? What kind of train is it?" Mu Wanqing asked again.

Huang Muyan knew that Mu Wanqing had been working at the Huang residence and had little opportunity to see a train, so she said to Mu Wanqing, "A train is a long line of carriages connected together. The carriage at the very front is called the locomotive. It will emit puffs of white smoke as it carries us to where we want to go."

"Is the train very big?" Mu Wanqing asked curiously.

“Yes, it’s huge, and every carriage will be full of people,” Huang Muyan continued to tell Mu Wanqing. “All sorts of people are sitting on the train.”

"Wow, but the train ticket must cost a lot of money, right?" Mu Wanqing asked. Feeling the time was right, she began to ask the question that Mu Baiyuan and she were concerned about, "Sister Huang, where will we get money after we run out of this?"

“I’ve thought about that too,” Huang Muyan said. She had already made plans for herself. “I can go to the newspaper office to copy articles and earn more than ten yuan per article.”

"Sister Huang must be having a hard time. Would it be bad if we couldn't help her?" Mu Wanqing asked.

"How could that be? You two are young. It's only right that I take care of you." Huang Muyan sensed that Mu Wanqing might have more questions than just these.

"Hmm... But Sister Huang, it's impossible for you to support the two of us on your own. And where will we live after we get to your school? If we live in Sister Huang's dormitory, what about my brother?" Mu Wanqing sat on a small stool, rubbing her hands as she looked at Huang Muyan, who was deep in thought.

After a while, Huang Muyan said, "I'll take you to my room, and your brother can stay in the school staff dormitory."

"School staff dormitory?" What kind of place is that? "Will they agree to let my brother live there?" Mu Wanqing asked curiously.

"The staff dormitory is a place for people who work at the school to live. Sometimes it can also accommodate some people to stay there," Huang Muyan explained to Mu Wanqing, then asked Mu Wanqing, "Xiao Wan, are you and your brother planning something?"

"Huh?" Mu Wanqing pretended to be stupid.

"Don't try to fool me. Do you want to go out and find work with your brother?" Huang Muyan's tone suddenly turned serious.

Mu Wanqing was silent for a while, then said, "Sister Huang, you go to school. The two of us have been staying in your dormitory, and there's nothing to do."

"Besides, you have to support three people by yourself, so the money from pawning definitely won't be enough."

“I think I can make money by copying articles, and there are also part-time jobs at school that can earn money. I can go with them.” Huang Muyan calmed herself down a bit and then said to Mu Wanqing.

“Sister Huang, you brought us out, so of course we should help you, not just accept your kindness.” Mu Wanqing listened to the words Lu Renkui gave her and added her own thoughts, “Besides, Sister Huang is a student. A student’s primary task is to study, right? If Sister Huang also wants to save the country and the people, she should focus her mind on her studies.”

"Besides, my brother and I aren't disabled or stupid. We just need Sister Huang's help to keep an eye on things. I trust Sister Huang completely," Mu Wanqing said sincerely.

Hearing this, Huang Muyan sighed and reached out to pat Mu Wanqing's head repeatedly: "I know you two want to help me lighten my burden, but you are both too young. I really don't trust you to go out and work."

"Does your sister's school have any good jobs?" Mu Wanqing asked hurriedly. "If it's inside your sister's school, it'll be closer to her, and she'll be able to see us, so she should feel at ease, right?"

"The main issue isn't where you work that would put my mind at ease, but rather that you two are too young. I'm not comfortable with you going anywhere, especially since they're quite strict there. Your brother might be able to find a job at your age, but you're underage. If someone is willing to hire you, it probably won't be a legitimate place."

After saying this, Huang Muyan frowned and thought for a while, then her brows relaxed as if she had come up with a good idea. She took out paper and pen from the box and asked, "Xiao Wan, do you still remember the books I taught you to read before?"

Mu Wanqing nodded and said, "I remember."

"Alright." Huang Muyan spread the paper on the table, wrote a few words on it, and then got up from her seat and let Mu Wanqing sit on it.

After Mu Wanqing picked up the pen, Huang Muyan pointed to the words she had just written and said, "Write down what I just wrote, and let me see how well you write it."
