The two train attendants looked at the little girl named Xiaotian, finding her family's apparent disapproval quite strange.
After observing for a moment, they noticed that the aunt the little girl called "Second Grandma" looked as if she was about to lash out.
The two exchanged a glance and quickly stepped in to cover for Su Xiaotian.
"Auntie, the little girl is quite capable of fighting and didn't suffer any losses!" the younger attendant said first.
"Yes, yes, it's thanks to the little girl that they were all subdued. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to catch them!" the older attendant added, not to be outdone.
What the older attendant said was true. The group consisted of nine people, and the two of them, master and disciple, were simply too weak.
He admitted to himself that he wasn't as good at fighting as this little girl, Su Xiaotian, let alone his useless disciple.
The situation was better before these two spoke. Now, Fan Shufang was even more annoyed, glaring fiercely at Su Xiaotian.
This little girl was indeed cute, but she was far too troublesome.
How could she cause such a mess when they were out?
She wondered what peculiar and strange thoughts were going on in the little girl's head.
Why didn't she consider what would happen if something went wrong?
There wasn't the term "bear child" back then, otherwise, Fan Shufang would have definitely called Su Xiaotian a "bear child!"
Su Xiaotian truly couldn't bear to watch. Were these two here to thank her or to stir up more trouble?
She finally couldn't help but cover her fair face with her hands.
"Auntie, look, the little girl is scared. Besides, I think what the child did was right. We shouldn't dampen a child's enthusiasm."
Seeing Su Xiaotian's seemingly frightened expression, the older attendant quickly spoke up in her defense.
The older attendant's thinking was very simple: maintaining public order in society required everyone's participation.
If no one was willing to help, what would society be like in the future?
Wouldn't the bad elements run rampant?
Fan Shufang glanced at Su Xiaotian, who was covering her face, and was almost furious.
Was this girl scared? How could she not believe it?
Did she not know how bold this girl was?
She reached out and tapped Su Xiaotian's head!
If it were any other child from the Su family, she wouldn't have said anything. But this girl was the only female child in the family!
She had finally brought this child out for a trip and had to keep a close eye on her and protect her well.
If she didn't discipline Su Xiaotian this time, who knew what other earth-shattering things she would do in the future.
Fan Shufang felt stifled, unable to express her anger.
She couldn't possibly dampen the spirits of these train attendants who had helped maintain everyone's safety!
"Old Fan, don't be angry. Look, the train attendants are speaking up for Xiaotian. Let's calm down first!"
How would the train attendants feel if she scolded the child who helped catch the criminals in front of them?
Fan Shufang understood Yang Liming's thoughts and could only suppress her anger.
"Comrades, it's not that I don't want this child to help, but as you can see, she's a girl, and we usually pamper her like she's going to break."
"Her brothers dote on her like a treasure, afraid she'll get into trouble if they blink."
"The girl has a strong grip. If she accidentally injures someone, even if it's a bad person, we won't be able to explain it clearly."
"Moreover, as an elder, I'm truly afraid something might happen to her. You tell me, isn't there an adult with her? Wouldn't it be better to tell an adult when something happens?"
Fan Shufang's words were reasonable and logical. Even the two train attendants felt that since the little girl had an adult with her, she shouldn't have taken the risk herself.
However, she must have had confidence when she took the risk, right?
They had never seen such a strong child!
The two train attendants exchanged glances. With this fighting capability, they were still worried about her getting into trouble?
Surely, any bad person who encountered this little girl would be the one in trouble, right?
However, this was the child's guardian, and naturally, they would worry about their own child. The two could understand that.
After seeing off the train attendants, Fan Shufang immediately put away the little smile she had on her face.
"Xiaotian, tell me, what can I say about you?" Fan Shufang was disappointed.
Su Xiaotian quickly said, "Second Grandma, I just didn't think of it for a moment. Let's pack up quickly, we're about to get off the train. I'm hungry."
"You girl, all you know is how to act cute!" Fan Shufang's anger subsided by half.
Yang Liming also chimed in, saying, "Xiaotian, you must remember in the future, when we go out, we're not alone, we're a team!"
Su Xiaotian solemnly promised that if she encountered similar problems again, she would actively seek help to resolve them and would definitely not rush in by herself.
Fan Shufang was originally worried that Su Xiaotian would suffer losses, but hearing Su Xiaotian's promise, she naturally didn't say much more.
Besides, the train would arrive at the station in about ten minutes, and there wasn't much time to educate the child.
She would wait until the evening when things were quiet to properly reason with the child.
Su Xiaotian was unaware that Fan Shufang was saving up all her words to teach her a good lesson in the evening. She was still happily thinking that she had escaped a calamity.
The group quickly packed their luggage. Su Xiaotian not only took her own luggage but also instantly picked up Fan Shufang's luggage.
She wanted to help Yang Liming with his luggage too, but with only two hands, it was difficult to carry.
Just then, two male comrades approached and said, "Director, Chairman, please let us handle the luggage!"
These two men held significant positions. Although they were traveling discreetly, they still had their necessary escorts.
These two young comrades were specifically there to protect and assist them, as well as to help with their luggage and ensure their journey went smoothly.
Su Xiaotian smiled and lifted the bag in her hand, saying, "I've got Second Grandma's bag. Yang Grandma's, I'll leave to you."
The two couldn't help but twitch their mouths.
This little girl was indeed quite strong.
When they boarded the train, they had helped carry Fan Shufang's luggage, so they knew it wasn't light. Yet, the little girl held it as if it were weightless.
Fortunately, both of them were professionally trained and didn't say much.
"Xiaotian, why don't you let them carry it? You're just a little girl!"
Fan Shufang thought that Su Xiaotian was a girl and was always looked after by her brothers at home, so she spoke up.
Su Xiaotian smiled and said, "Second Grandma, I have great strength. I came with you this time to take care of you. The train only stops for five minutes, don't delay us getting off."
After speaking, Su Xiaotian led the way, carrying the luggage off the train.
Xiao Liu watched Su Xiaotian stride away with two large bags, and couldn't help but look at the smaller bag in her own hand, which felt heavy.
She felt completely outclassed by this little girl in every way.
After getting off the train, people were already waiting at the station, and the group was quickly escorted to the hotel.
The Spring City Hotel was the best hotel in the area.
Although it was nothing compared to the star-rated hotels of later generations, for that era, such a hotel was considered high-end.
Although Fan Shufang and Yang Liming had come to Spring City together, they were not there for the same reason, so they were not on the same floor for accommodation.
Su Xiaotian stayed with Fan Shufang on the fourth floor.
