Clandestine Meeting

Noisily the train chugged across the tracks, heading for the station. Among the crowd, a girl with her hair in two buns waved frantically as it approached.

It was going to be her first train ride, Yan Xiazhi thought excitedly. 

"Xiazhi, going for a vacation?" Mrs Fang asked. She was one of the villagers, and like Xiazhi, she had some business to do in the city: her eldest daughter was finally getting married!

"Yes, Mrs Fang. I'm going to City A to look for Ruo Lan!" she exclaimed, passionate about what she was determined to do.
