A two-hour drive, for office workers in big cities, is not a long journey. Mo Xixi, who struck up a conversation with Xia You, is a lively person. Her face is small, and the most noticeable feature is her chatty mouth that hasn't stopped since she got on the bus. From the moment Xia You sat next to her, Mo Xixi began to engage in ceaseless chatter. After over an hour, Xia You was asked questions until she was parched and weary.
From her alma mater to where she lived, the number of family members, almost all information was coaxed out by Mo Xixi.
As the wheels rolled along the military road, those who were really asleep and pretending to sleep on the bus, after more than an hour's journey, also knew about Xia You's background. Truly, both women had no filters. Some who no longer wished to hear women prattle about domestic matters looked out the window.
