Just like the divorce of many couples, in many cases it is not because there is no love between them. They often quarrel over a trivial matter, and finally get so angry that they say divorce and they really get divorced.
This is a very objective thing. If there is no extramarital affair between a couple, most divorces will be initiated by the woman.
This is not a false accusation, but a fact, because compared to men, women are often the less likely to be satisfied in marriage.
When Zhou Chen returned to the dining car, everyone had already left.
"Have you confessed?" Zhou Chen asked Wang Xin.
Wang Xin said proudly, "Of course he will. With my master and I here, how can he not confess? He stole it, so he should hand it over when he returns. At least he will be locked up for a while."
He was caught on the spot and there was sufficient evidence. It was useless to try to be stubborn. Hou Sanjin could not bear it and confessed quickly.
Watches these days are not cheap. If you are caught stealing this amount, you won’t be sentenced severely, but you will still be imprisoned for a period of time.
"Huh, huh..."
Zhou Chen blew away the debris on the wood carving. After more than twenty days, the phoenix carving was finally completed.
Thanks to Zhou Chen's superb skills, although this phoenix wood carving is not dyed, the visual effect is still very good. At least Wang Xin and Cai Xiaonian who came to visit were stunned.
"Oh my god, Zhou Chen, you are so amazing. It's so lifelike." Cai Xiaonian was amazed.
Wang Xin also gave a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart and praised: "I didn't think much of your carving before, but now I see that it's amazing, really amazing."
Zhou Chen was a little dissatisfied: "It's just average. Many details are not done well. It's a little worse than I expected."
"Is that still bad?"
Wang Xin and Cai Xiaonian looked incredulous. In their eyes, this was already a perfect work of art. If this was considered bad, then how much better could it be?
Wang Xin licked his face and said flatteringly: "Zhou Chen, I really like the wood carvings you made. If you have time, can you make one for me?"
Zhou Chen looked surprised: "You want me to make a wood sculpture for you?"
"Correct."
"Then what do you want to do?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. If you agree, then I'll think about it. If you don't agree, it's useless for me to think about it."
"Okay, I'm fine anyway. If you have decided what to carve, tell me and I'll help you."
"Great, then it's settled. As long as it's at the same level as this phoenix wood carving, it'll be fine."
"It's not enough to do it for you for free, but you even have to put forward conditions."
"I want one too, Zhou Chen. Carve one for me too. It will definitely look grand if I put it at home. But I don't want a phoenix. I want a dragon."
Cai Xiaonian also interjected and spoke with anticipation on his face.
"No problem, but you have to wait."
"I understand. Fine work is the result of meticulous work."
"........."
The annual college entrance examination has begun. This year is the second year since the resumption of the college entrance examination. Ma Kui has been in a bad mood these two days because his daughter Ma Yan's college entrance examination results have come out.
Can't say it's bad, can only say it's a mess.
In the train's dining car, when they arrived at the restaurant, all the train staff came to the dining car to eat.
But today was a little different. Many people were staring at Yao Yuling because the train staff's work uniforms had been changed. Yao Yuling had secretly modified the work uniform. The originally loose work uniform was changed by her into a tight-waisted one, which showed off her figure very well. It was completely different from the work uniforms of other female staff members.
Zhou Chen and Yu Xingguo sat together. Yu Xingguo nudged Zhou Chen and said with a smile, "Xiao Yao is good. Aren't you in the same compound? Why don't you think about developing your relationship?"
"Brother Yu, when did you become so gossipy?"
Even an honest man like Yu Xingguo was attracted to Yao Yuling, not to mention other men.
If Yao Yuling wore clothes like this, it would be considered conservative in later generations, but in this era, especially on public trains, coupled with her twisting cat steps, it was quite inappropriate.
Therefore, Yao Yuling was targeted by the train conductor Lu Hongxing.
"Xiaoyao, isn't it time for you to be subdued?"
Yao Yuling hadn't figured out the situation yet, so she nodded naturally and said, "Yeah."
Seeing her attitude, Lu Hongxing became even more angry and scolded her loudly: "Do you know that railway uniforms cannot be changed casually?"
Yao Yuling: "I didn't alter it casually, Captain Lu. It's like this. I've lost weight recently, and I felt it was too loose after I put it on, so I altered a few stitches. But don't worry, I measured it carefully before altering it."
Lu Hongxing said angrily: "It's okay for you to change the size, but the one you changed now is so tight around the waist and the buttocks. How can it look good?"
For the older generation, Yao Yuling's behavior is corrupting public morals and is extremely ugly.
He even asked Cai Xiaonian: "Xiaonian, what do you think?"
Cai Xiaonian looked confused: "Ah?"
"What do you think?"
"I, I like watching it."
"Go up to the side."
Lu Hongxing cursed angrily, making everyone in the car laugh.
"Xiao Wang, what do you think?"
"I listen to my master."
Lu Hongxing glared at him, then looked at Zhou Chen: "Xiao Zhou, go ahead."
Zhou Chen didn't expect that there was still something for him to do, so he casually replied: "Uncle Lu, I'm a flight attendant, we are not from the same unit, I'm not sure if it can be changed."
"So do you think his modification looks good?"
"I'm blind and can't tell whether it's beautiful or not."
"Pfft!"
After another burst of laughter, Lu Hongxing looked helpless.
It was Ma Kui who stood up and said that the uniform was the face of railway workers and could not be changed casually.
"What have you changed into? Tell me, who changed it for you?"
"Aunt Lu."
"who is it?"
"Uh, your wife."
These words instantly silenced Lu Hongxing, and everyone was trying to hold back their laughter.
As soon as she came back from the trip, Yao Yuling prepared to have her clothes altered, but she didn't have any extra cloth coupons, so she had to borrow some from someone.
"Yao Yuling didn't have any cloth coupons, so you helped her borrow them, and you came to me to borrow them?"
Zhou Chen looked at Wang Xin who came to borrow cloth coupons in front of him, his face speechless. It seemed that the plot remained unchanged. According to this trend, Wang Xin and Yao Yuling would have another development.
Wang Xin said embarrassedly: "Yes, we are all neighbors in the same compound, so I will just consider it as helping you. It's just that I don't have any cloth coupons. I know you must have some, so I came to borrow from you."
"I'm a rich man. You can come to me when you encounter any difficulties. Yao Yuling doesn't come to borrow money herself, but you come to borrow money. Are you trying to curry favor with her by offering flowers to Buddha?"
Wang Xin smiled embarrassedly, unable to refute.
Zhou Chen sighed and advised, "I do have some cloth coupons, and I can lend them to you, but I still want to advise you, Yao Yuling is good, but she is really not suitable for you. The two of you have different values, and even if you are together, there may not be a good result in the future."
Wang Xin looked shy: "Who knows what will happen in the future? Besides, we are not together now. I really just want to help my neighbor."
"I don't believe you. Wait."
Zhou Chen gave a few cloth coupons to Wang Xin. After receiving them, Wang Xin kept thanking him and left happily.

Chapter 1349: Niu Dali gets drunk and the woman trafficker appears
Zhou Chen was concentrating on wood carving at home when suddenly Cai Xiaonian ran over.
"Zhou Chen, let's go, Dali will buy us a drink."
"Niu Dali? Why is this kid so generous today?"
Although Niu Dali was very generous to Yao Yuling, he was actually quite stingy. At least it was very rare for him to treat her to a meal, and he was more of a talker.
Cai Xiaonian said: "I don't know, I just feel that he is very frustrated, who cares? Anyway, he is treating us to a meal, so we just need to eat and drink well."
"You seem to be open-minded and just want to eat and drink for free, right?"
Zhou Chen was speechless. Niu Dali was not generous, and Cai Xiaonian was not much better. To put it nicely, he was able to save money and knew how to live, but to put it bluntly, he was also stingy.
At least when it comes to generosity among friends, the two of them can't compare to Wang Xin even if they flatter him.
Maybe if Niu Dali becomes rich in the future, things will change, but as for Cai Xiaonian, this guy probably won’t change even if he becomes rich in the future.
"I'll wash my face and change my clothes."
Zhou Chen packed up simply and then walked out of the compound with Cai Xiaonian.
"Where are Wang Xin and Niu Dali?"
"They went over first."
The hotel was not far away, so they all walked there.
Four people sat together in the small restaurant. Only a plate of peanuts was served, and Niu Dali started drinking it.
Zhou Chen and the other two looked at each other. They all knew why Niu Dali invited them to drink.
It was still Cai Xiaonian who said, "Da Li, don't just drink alcohol, eat some peanuts too. Drinking alcohol without alcohol hurts your stomach. Come, I'll get you some garlic."
But Niu Dali didn't even look at it. Wang Xin said to Niu Dali, "You said you would give Yao Yuling the food rations for the second half of the month in exchange for cloth coupons. What are you thinking? What are you going to eat for the second half of the month? You're starving."
Niu Dali didn't listen at all. Instead, he stared at Wang Xin: "Daxin, what does it have to do with you that Yao'er collected cloth coupons to modify clothes? Why are you meddling in this business?"
When Wang Xin heard this, he immediately said, "Then they asked me for help. We are from the same hospital and we are on the same bus. Can I help them?"
Niu Dali sneered, "You help someone, find someone, and marry someone. How come you are so lucky?"
Even Cai Xiaonian couldn't stand it anymore and scolded: "Da Li, you've drunk too much, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Wang Xin also pouted: "I don't want to talk to you about this. You really have drunk too much. I'm going to say something you don't want to hear. When it comes to dating, you can't be too eager, right? It's not a good deal to rush in. You two are not suitable."
"underestimate me?"
"I don't look down on you. I think too highly of you. I treat you as a brother. I don't want you to fly around like a headless fly."
Niu Dali slammed the table and said firmly: "I'm going to say this today. Yao'er is the only one for me in this life. Daxin, if you really treat me as a brother, please learn from Zhou Chen. He was very straightforward. In order to fulfill my wish, he didn't have any unnecessary contact with Yao'er."
"No, why are you talking about me again? This matter has nothing to do with me."
Seeing that all three of them were looking at him, Zhou Chen immediately distanced himself from the matter. Just as Wang Xin said, Niu Dali was really possessed and would say anything for Yao Yuling.
"Now that we have come to this, I'd like to give you a few more words of advice. Wang Xin, Dali, and Yao Yuling are all good, but I don't think you two are a good match for her. There are many good girls in the world, so there's no need to hang your head on her. I'll ask Sister Wu to introduce a few more to you. There'll always be someone you like."
Cai Xiaonian slammed the table and said, "I think what Zhou Chen said makes sense. We brothers don't need to argue over a woman."
"No, I don't want anyone else, I only want Yao'er." Niu Dali was really adamant.
Wang Xin also curled his lips: "I don't need an introduction, free love is popular now."
He also had some feelings for Yao Yuling in his heart. He felt that Yao Yuling seemed to be interested in him, so he didn't take Zhou Chen's persuasion to heart at all.
Seeing that these two people refused to listen, Zhou Chen stopped talking.
"It's up to you guys. Hurry up and serve the food. Just peanuts and wine?"
After the drinking session, Niu Dali was already staggering with drunkenness. Among the four of them, he drank the most, and he drank alone, so how could he not be drunk.
On the way back, Niu Dali kept talking to Wang Xin about Yao Yuling and almost knelt down to beg Wang Xin not to provoke Yao Yuling. This made Wang Xin very angry.
After the train started, Zhou Chen started from the first passenger car and patrolled all the way to the last car before returning to the dining car to rest.
"Xiao Zhou, I noticed that you always go to the carriages to inspect by yourself recently. Why are you suddenly so active?"
Lu Hongxing drank tea and asked Zhou Chen with a smile.
"We have always been very active. Before Uncle Ma and Wang Xin came, Brother Yu and I were the most diligent in our inspections."
"Haha, that's true. After Lao Ma and Wang Xin came, you were freed up a lot. Lao Ma is a model worker, and Wang Xin is the same, very hardworking."
Zhou Chen has indeed been patrolling the carriages frequently recently, because he had promised the old blind man Meng Qingshan that he would help him find the human traffickers, so every time the train arrived at the station and picked up passengers, he would go out for a walk to see if he could find any human traffickers.
