Just a passer-by in life, Xu Zijin said a few words in a dull manner and then said goodbye politely.

When she heard her sister say that Wang Jiancheng was not married, she burst into laughter: "Hahaha, sister, this guy really cares about face."

of course.

Xu Zimei knew that this boy used to like her sister.

However, because his sister still had a rural household registration at the time, his family opposed it and he gave up.

Now, her sister is not only beautiful, but also a scholar.

How many people in this county have read as many books as her?

How many people are as beautiful as her?

Xu Zimei was not busy in the afternoon, and knowing her sister was coming, she came back early.

Hearing this, she chuckled and said, "Of course, it's a blessing for rural soldiers to be able to get formal jobs after they are released."

"Before he joined the army, he would go to his uncle's mother's house every now and then. When he came, he would look for you. He liked you very much."

"But he stopped coming later. It must be because his mother and aunt didn't want him to come. He will have to eat state-funded food in the future."

Xu Zijin smiled and said, "I think it was mostly my aunt's idea, but it's a good thing, otherwise I wouldn't study so hard."

Right.

Xu Zimei knows her sister very well.

She is petite and doesn't talk much. To outsiders, she looks like a gentle girl.

Only those who know her well will know how stubborn she is.

If she hadn't fallen in love with Yang Laosi back then, she wouldn't have insisted on going back to school and taking the exam to become a normal student.

Ugh.

After all, I have to thank Yang Laosi.

Xu Zimei is very optimistic about Lu Hanzhou, although she has never seen Yang Shengjun as an adult.

But I just feel that Lu Hanzhou is down-to-earth.

People who are high and mighty are not so easy to get along with.

She said sincerely: "Jiaojiao, this brother-in-law is better than Yang Laosi, you should live a good life, okay?"

Xu Zijin smiled gently: "Sister, I will live a good life. If I can't live a good life if I marry him, then why marry him?"

"I came here today to tell you something. This is a piece of land I bought for my father. It's next to the bridgehead in the west of the city."

"The house is very dilapidated and must be rebuilt before it can be lived in."

"I want to build it better, so I plan to build it in two years. By then, some procedures need to be approved. I'll leave this thing with you."

What?

My sister bought a foundation for my father?

Xu Zimei opened her mouth and asked, "How much is it?"

Xu Zijin laughed: "Not expensive, just 500 yuan."

Five hundred yuan, isn't that enough?

Xu Zimei thought, this is almost as much as my annual salary.

"That shabby house costs another five hundred dollars. It's too expensive."

Xu Zijin smiled sincerely: "Sister, the house is shabby, but it's large, with at least seven acres of land."

Seven parts of land?

This is quite a bit...

Xu Zimei was curious: "How are you going to build such a large area?"

"Build a three-story house! Dad will have one floor, brother will have one floor, and you and I will have one floor."

"If big brother doesn't want to live with dad, then dad will have one floor, you will have one floor, and I will have one floor."

"If there is extra space, we can dig a small fish pond and plant a few vegetable plots."

Looking at her sister's excited face, Xu Zimei couldn't close her mouth!

"Jiaojiao, do you know how much it costs to build a three-story Western-style house?"

Xu Zijin nodded seriously: "I asked, and Brother Xu Jun said that the materials and labor for building the house will cost about three thousand five hundred."

"If we want to improve the yard, another 500 will be enough."

Three thousand five plus five hundred is exactly four thousand.

Xu Zimei thought to herself, the combined salary of my husband and I would take nearly four years to earn enough money without eating or drinking.

"Jiaojiao, how big are you planning to build?"

Xu Zijin knew that his sister would be surprised, after all, that was the condition in that era.

She said with a smile: "The ground floor area is about 180 square meters. I want to build three and a half floors."

"We have a lot of rain here, so we left half of the ground floor empty to store some things."

My sister is a bit ambitious...

However, Xu Zimei had made up her mind that she would find a way to squeeze out some money when the time comes so that her sister would not have to support her father alone.

The two sisters agreed to keep the matter of buying and building a house secret for the time being, and Xu Zijin took the last bus home.

Her brother's problem was solved and the vacation was approaching, so she prepared to pack up and return to the army.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yu and another classmate named Wu Ying came to her house that morning...

"Jiaojiao, my mother said that marrying a soldier is too hard, and you can only see him a few times a year."

"It's not easy for me to transfer across provinces for my job, so my mother hopes that I will marry someone local."

Well, marrying far away is indeed a gamble.

Xu Zijin decided to remind her friend, and when she saw Wu Ying went to the bathroom, she immediately pulled Xu Yu to the kitchen.

"Xu Yu, I heard that Li Sheng has intermittent mental illness, which is usually invisible."

"But once something happens, he becomes manic and angry."

"Don't ask me where I heard that. He has been to the Seventh Hospital in the city for treatment. If you don't believe me, you can ask your eldest brother to check it out."

"He now relies on medication every day to survive. That's all I have to say."

"You are my best sister. I won't lie to you. I just want you to be happy!"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Yu trembled with fear: "..."

——This is too scary!

"Jiaojiao, this guy was introduced to me by my relative. Is he really such a person?"

Xu Zijin smiled and said, "It's useless for me to say that. You should hurry up and ask your eldest brother to check it out. In the future, you should trust less introductions."

“Some people just like to do good things enthusiastically, but they don’t really know the people they are introducing.”

"It's best to find someone you know and find out. You're not in a hurry to get married anyway, right?"

Yeah.

Xu Yu nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, I'll tell my mother when I get home, and she will ask my eldest brother to check it out."

"What are you talking about?"

Wu Ying came out of the bathroom and found two people whispering in the kitchen, so she immediately ran in to ask.

Xu Yu smiled and said, "Zi Jin is asking me if I want to go to the army to play when I have time."

Go to the army?

Wu Ying's eyes lit up: "Is there any soldier? I want to find a soldier."

After saying this, Xu Yu looked at Xu Zijin and blinked, meaning not to introduce her easily.

Xu Zijin asked casually:

"Wu Ying, do you want to marry into the military?"

Wu Ying nodded towards Xu Zijin: "Yes, I have liked soldiers since I was a child, and I have always wanted to find a soldier."

"Zijin, if you have any good soldiers, please introduce one to me."

Xu Zijin smiled and shook his head: "I just joined the army not long ago, I don't know many people, how can I introduce you?"

"I wouldn't dare introduce you to someone I don't know."

"You are my classmate, I have to be responsible for you."

Wu Ying looked at the two of them and sighed, "Okay, you must remember that I really want to find a soldier."

Xu Zijin smiled and nodded: "I'll try my best. I'll write to you as soon as I have any news."

"Well, thank you so much."

At this moment, Xu Zijin could never have imagined that Wu Ying would actually marry into the army, and even into the Nth Division...
