Quick Travel System: Age Strategy

Chapter 7: Post Office Postman 5

"Brother Jianjun, I'm here. Just take me here. I can walk these two steps back by myself."

I can't let Brother Jianjun take me to the gate of the tube building, because there are a lot of middle-aged women living there who don't have any jobs and stay at home all day. They love to gossip about other people's affairs every day. If they know that the one who sent me back is a man,

The whole building will know about it tomorrow. Don't underestimate these women's gossips. They can make a good person become an unforgivable villain by talking about it one by one.

In the memory of receiving, such incidents have happened several times before. They know which family eats meat, which family buys a bicycle, which family quarrels, and which family divorces.

He can be said to be the intelligence officer of the entire county. In the past, he had to collect intelligence at the intelligence station.

Wang Jianjun slowly stopped the car, got out, pushed the car and said, "Chengcheng, let's go to the park for a date tomorrow night, okay?"

"Okay, you can take me there after school tomorrow."

When Wang Jianjun heard Chengcheng agree, he felt as if his heart was soaked in honey, sweet as a jelly.

I wondered in surprise, is this what it feels like to be in love?

After parting with Wang Jianjun, Chengcheng walked towards the tube-shaped building step by step. Fortunately, no one was out walking in the alley when she returned, so she didn't run into that group of gossipers.

"Yitong, now that I have established a relationship with the male protagonist, have I completed my mission?"

[Chenchen, the system's current judgment is not yet... The male protagonist's happiness has not yet reached its peak, and it is only 75% now]

"What? We're already boyfriend and girlfriend and it's only 75%. Are you sure your system is ok?"

[Then there is definitely no problem. Why don't you trust our Spacetime Administration? We have been dealing with various spacetimes for many years. This system is the most advanced and accurate, and there will definitely be no mistakes. Besides, we have channels for contact. If there is any problem, the Spacetime Administration will know directly, and the engineering department will fix it in the background.]

"I see. That sounds amazing."

【( *︾▽︾) Just put your mind at ease. If you have any problems, we won’t have any problems. 】

Cheng Cheng took out the key and opened the door. It was 5:30 in the afternoon and her family had not come back yet. She planned to make some millet porridge to heat up the few steamed buns left over from the morning. Millet porridge and steamed buns with pickles were delicious.

In the tube building, if you cook meat, it's not a holiday. It's to let people know that your family is rich. People in those days were simple and honest. If they met a neighbor who was begging for money, they would give him a bite or two. And people didn't eat much meat on weekdays, so their noses were very sensitive.

Chengcheng thought that next time he would bring an enamel pot and pack some braised pork from the state-owned restaurant to satisfy his family's cravings.

This is the tube building of the cannery, with more than 50 families living in one building. Even though everyone works in the cannery, the wages of the workers are quite good compared to other classes.

But you can't eat meat every day. There are several people and several mouths to feed in a family. For those families with many children, it is difficult to maintain daily expenses.

After washing my hands, I took out the rice bag at home. There was not much rice and millet left, so I poured out a spoonful and a half of millet. I washed the millet and went to the kitchen in the corridor. I poured the millet into the pot, added two scoops of water, turned on the fire and boiled it. I used chopsticks to add two drops of oil. This millet porridge tastes better when it is boiled with a little oil. I boiled it for ten minutes and turned off the heat when it became thick. A layer of rice oil appeared on the surface of the millet porridge with oil, which smelled fragrant, golden in color, thick and fragrant.

Pour the millet porridge into a bowl, add a little water, top it with the hot cornmeal steamed bread, and let it sit for two minutes.

After a while, the younger sister came back first. She was still in junior high school. Usually, the two sisters had a good relationship. There were three children in the family. Although the adults favored the eldest son, the three children got along well with each other. There was nothing to be jealous of. They were all a loving family.

"Linlin, wash your hands and eat. It's rare for your sister to cook today. Come and try it."

"Sister, you cooked again. The lunch was delicious. Your cooking skills are really good. But if you are not feeling well, you should cook less and take care of yourself more."

Cheng Cheng looked at her sister's concerned eyes and her worried mutterings and felt that everything was so real. She finally had the family she had always longed for.

"I am the only one in our family who has nothing to do. I have been lying down all day. I feel bad for my parents who work hard every day and have to cook when they get home from get off work. It's so tiring. I will do it today so they can have a rest."

After he finished speaking, applause was heard from the door. Father Li pushed the door open and walked in with a pleased smile on his face. He said, "Chengcheng, you are right. Your parents loved you well. Now you and your sister are the only two children in the family. Your little cotton-padded jacket has finally become a down jacket."

Mother Li, who came in from behind, had a mischievous smile on her face. "You, Old Li, have you seen the love of your precious daughter? You usually don't say anything, but you have me in your heart."

Father Li laughed out loud when he heard this. "Come here, my dear daughter. I brought back some pork stewed with pickled cabbage from the factory cafeteria today. Let's eat it together as an extra dish."

After dinner, Father Li gave each of the two sisters five yuan. "Keep this money to buy some books and study hard. Especially you, Chengcheng, you are already a sophomore in high school, don't be tired of studying, think about what you want to do in the future, whether to go to college or find a job."

"Dad, I plan to work. You know my grades aren't good enough. I won't be able to get into a good university, so I might as well start working sooner."

"Since you have made up your mind, Dad won't say anything. I respect your wishes. I'll give you another twenty yuan. If you need anything else, use it first." Then Dad Li asked Mom Li to take out twenty yuan and put it on the table. (Mother Li usually manages the money in the Li family)

Mother Li said, "Chengcheng, we don't have any connections to help you. If you need money for something, just tell your family and they will help you out."

"Okay, mom. I don't know any job recruitment channels yet. I want to find out while I finish high school." He picked up the twenty-five yuan on the table and said, "I'll keep the money for now. If I don't need it, I'll give it to you."

Mother Li waved her hand and said, "No need to give it to mother, keep it for yourself. What is given to you is yours."

After returning to the room, Chengcheng put the money in a box in the wooden wardrobe and locked it. He touched the box and calculated, adding the twenty-five yuan given by Li's father and mother today, the five yuan left over from the afternoon, and the ten yuan left in the box, the total was forty yuan.

It’s equivalent to two months’ salary of an ordinary worker, which is not a small amount.

Sitting on the bed, staring blankly at the wall covered with newspapers, "Yitong, the original owner's parents are so nice. This is the warmth of family. Your family members are always worried about your future."

[Yes, you will encounter families like Chengcheng's in the future. But you should also be prepared that not all families are like this.]
