"Creak!"
Chen Xi stood in front of her house and pushed open the wooden door.
In this Red Star Siheyuan, he had the ownership of three houses. Although the area was only about 40 to 50 square meters, it was considered a good standard in this era.
After all, there were only two people in Chen Xi's family.
The two of them lived in three houses.
Looking at the treatment of the third uncle next door, Yan Bugui, the family of six and his wife, Yu Li, the seven of them squeezed into a house to live. That was really miserable.
"Who is it?"
She heard the sound of the door opening.
The young girl who was reading in front of the desk suddenly raised her head.
Bright eyes, white teeth, a small nose, a delicate mouth, and a small face that was slightly red.
Although she was only wearing plain light blue clothes, it could not hide her youthful and scholarly temperament.
Her name was Chen Luo Qing. She was once an orphan who was brought back by Chen Xi's parents. She was named Chen Luo Qing and was raised as a child bride. However, since the term 'child bride' was considered a superstition in this era, she didn't say it out loud.
The surname Chen was inherited from Chen Xi's family.
What Luo Qing meant was that she was as beautiful as the Goddess of the River Luo and could topple a country. This was used to describe the beauty of this young girl.
He had to admit.
Chen Luoqing was just a little girl with a dirty face when she was picked up. However, after washing up, she was also a beauty. After all these years of growth, although she lacked nutrition, her appearance was absolutely impeccable.
At the very least, Qin Huiru, Qin Jingru, Ran Qiuye, Yu Haitang, and He Yushui could not compare to him.
"I'm back, Luo Qing."
"Brother Xi?"
He heard this familiar voice.
Chen Luoqing put down the book in her hand and looked at the door.
Standing there was her brother, who had gone through life and death on the battlefield for two years-Chen Xi!
When Chen Xi chose to join the army, Chen Luoqing was strongly opposed to it. Although it was indeed an honorable thing to serve the country, Chen Xi was the only child left in the Chen family. His parents were also heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country.
If anything happened to Brother Xi again.
Chen Luoqing couldn't accept it.
Chen Luoqing had been adopted by the Chen family since she was young. She could eat her fill and wear warm clothes. When she was bullied, Brother Xi would stand up and protect her. This made Chen Luoqing feel a great sense of belonging to the Chen family.
Therefore, she, who had been smart since she was young, was aware of what her parents were thinking.
However, Chen Luoqing did not show any signs of objection.
However, she did not change Chen Xi's mind in the end. Perhaps it was to unlock the dungeon world or to protect the territory of the Dragon Country, Chen Xi still chose to become a glorious soldier of the Dragon Country.
Over the years, Chen Xi had also maintained a letter to her family every month, reporting her safety and secretly sending her salary back on time.
This made Chen Luoqing feel a little more at ease. It also proved that Brother Xi was fine.
Of course.
If it was because of traffic problems.
As a result, the delivery of the letter and salary was delayed for a few days. Chen Luoqing would not sleep all night, thinking about Chen Xi's safety.
"It wasn't easy for me to come back.”Chen Xi smiled warmly and waved the five pounds of pork in her hand." Look what I brought you. There's enough oil and water for today's meal."”
"Yes, yes."
Seeing Brother Xi return safely, Chen Luoqing was completely relieved.
As long as she could return safely, everything would be fine. She was already in the first semester of her third year of high school. In just half a year, she would be able to graduate from high school with her excellent academic results.
In the future, whether it was getting into university or being assigned a job, it would be a simple matter.
At that time.
She could also contribute to the family.
He didn't want to be Brother Xi's burden, which would only be a waste of money.
"Today, I'll personally cook for you. I'll let you taste the craftsmanship I learned from the army. I guarantee that you'll be able to eat your tongue with a piece of red braised pork.”
Chen Xi walked straight into the house and closed the door behind her.
In this era, many people didn't even have enough to eat, let alone eat meat. Therefore, eating meat was a matter of " drawing hatred ". Usually, if it wasn't an important day, they would hide in their houses and eat secretly.
Chen Xi did not want to have anything to do with the other people in the courtyard house, nor did she want to be reported for nothing.
Although he could clearly explain the source of his meat, it was still a little troublesome and disturbed his peaceful life.
Regarding this.
Chen Luoqing naturally knew that.
She still had more than 2,000 yuan from Brother Xi, but she had been thrifty for the past two years and did not spend it casually. She planned to return it all when Brother Xi came back.
Of course, the other reason was also because Chen Xi had mentioned in her letter to her family the principle of not exposing one's wealth.
If others knew that you were rich, there would be a lot of trouble. Borrowing money would be unavoidable. Moreover, those ungrateful bastards of the Jia family would never show mercy. If it was just Chen Luo Qing alone, it would be a little difficult to deal with those shameless guys.
A total of 2380 yuan, plus food stamps, meat stamps, and so on.
Chen Luoqing spent a total of 180 yuan in two years, which was an average of 7.5 yuan a month. His food was a little better than that of ordinary families. Of course, he was still far from being able to enjoy the freedom to eat meat. One-third of the refined grain and two-thirds of the coarse grain, at least he would not go hungry.
