It took Xu Zijin almost three hours to check the six thousand words.

After printing, it came out at exactly half past five.

When the weather is hot, I can just cook porridge in the evening, steam a few buns, and stir-fry two dishes.

The big buns were made by Chen Xiumei in the morning.

She has good skills and the buns are fluffy and soft.

The filling is good and Xu Zijin likes it very much.

Just as I was about to wash the vegetables, the door rang.

"Godmother? Aunt Liu? Why are you here? Come in, come in."

Standing at the door were Zhao Hongying and the teacher's wife Liu Cuixia.

The two of them didn't hesitate and went into the house immediately.

Xu Zijin quickly cut a plate of watermelon: "Godmother, Aunt Liu, have a piece of watermelon, freshly fished out of the well."

When Liu Cuixia heard this, she immediately took a piece and said, "I have to eat this melon. Xiao Lu sent it to me, but I only got two pieces. They took the rest!"

It’s not that there is no watermelon at the commander’s house.

Now supplies are scarce and conditions are bad.

But it does not include the leader's family. After all, the land has been distributed to each household, and many people in the rural areas grow watermelons.

There are a lot of people who are paid in the chief's family, and Liu Cuixia is not a stingy person, so she is always willing to spend some money on a melon.

The problem is, other people’s melons aren’t as delicious!

Of course, she said it on purpose to show her closeness to Lu Hanzhou.

Xu Zijin cut half a watermelon over. The eight pieces of watermelon weighed more than four pounds, and the two of them ate two pieces each.

After eating the watermelon, Liu Cuixia spoke first.

"Xiao Xu, I'm here with your godmother today because I have something to ask you. I heard that you did Yuanyuan's makeup yesterday. Is that true?"

Xu Zijin nodded: "Yes, Auntie, you want to..."

Liu Cuixia was very straightforward: "Would you like to be a female soldier? We are recruiting."

"As long as you work hard, I'll get you a promotion within two years. How about that?"

Be a female soldier?

In his previous life, Xu Zijin had longed for and envied this.

But there is no chance.

But she doesn't want to do that in this life.

It’s not that she is unwilling to defend her country, but she has worked hard all her life and she doesn’t want to work so hard again.

When you are a soldier, whether you are a female or male soldier, no matter what branch of the military, you have to go through drills and training, which is unshakable.

Especially the field exercises, which require sleeping in the open air, are extremely hard.

In addition, there are a lot of regulations and a lot of leaders who manage her.

As a rookie, there are many people who bully you.

Not to mention others, Li Sijia’s good sisters would annoy her to death.

Today, Xu Zijin is not afraid of these people, but he is most annoyed by the interactions between colleagues.

The most complex relationship in the world is interpersonal relationship.

After working in the workplace for a lifetime, she really sees through it all.

Looking at Liu Cuixia's expectant face, Xu Zijin felt like he was being ungrateful.

Suddenly filled with guilt.

"Auntie, to be honest, being a female soldier was once my dream."

“But I had three years of teacher education and I didn’t want to waste it.”

"Besides, being a female soldier is too busy, and I have three children at home, so...thank you for your kindness..."

"Hahaha……"

Liu Cuixia suddenly laughed: "It is true that no one knows a daughter better than her mother. Your godmother really understands you."

"Before she came here, she said that you were a single-minded child, and no matter what kind of treatment I offered, you would not agree to my request."

"Xiao Xu, it's okay if you don't agree."

"But can you help me and bring out two apprentices?"

In her previous life, Xu Zijin had learned how to put on makeup because she often had to give lectures outside and she couldn't do without knowing how to put on makeup.

But now, she has never formally learned how to put on makeup.

Because this thing can't be learned everywhere in this era.

"Auntie, I'm afraid that this skill I developed by myself... is..."

"do not be afraid!"

Before she could finish, Liu Cuixia interrupted her: "Your craftsmanship is very good, I saw it with my own eyes."

"There are two makeup artists in our group, but they can't create the same effect as you."

"I won't let you work for nothing. The group has the funds for this, so don't worry."

Now that things have come to this, Xu Zijin couldn't refuse anymore, but if she had anything to say, she had to say it in advance.

"Auntie, makeup requires not only skills, but also cosmetics,"

"The things I have are from Guangshi. They are all goods from abroad."

"Because the product is good, the effect is so natural."

“If you want actors to achieve this look, to look natural, you have to have good makeup.”

It turned out to be the case.

Liu Cuixia opened her mouth and said, "Is this thing expensive?"

Xu Zijin nodded: "Well, a set costs more than a hundred yuan, and one person can use it for about three months."

"Besides, this thing is in Guangshi, and you have to find a way to buy it."

"If you buy it on the market, it'll cost you three hundred dollars a set."

Wow!

so expensive?

Liu Cuixia opened her mouth and thought for a while before saying, "This part... is really a problem."

"Xiao Xu, can you bring your cosmetics to the group tomorrow?"

"Use your makeup and the existing makeup in the group to draw one and compare them?"

Having said that, Xu Zijin felt embarrassed to refuse.

She nodded: "Okay, I'll go to the art troupe to see you at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

Liu Cuixia smiled and felt very proud after completing the task entrusted by the team leader.

Originally, the team leader wanted to ask Zhao Hongying for help, after all, the Yang family adopted her as their goddaughter.

But the Yang family had too many things going on these two days, and the team leader didn't feel comfortable disturbing them, so he turned to Liu Cuixia for help.

But before coming, she still brought Zhao Hongying with her.

"Okay, okay, your godmother and I will wait for you in the group tomorrow!"

"Okay okay."

Xu Zijin agreed with a smile.

When Lu Hanzhou came back from get out of class, he happened to meet the two of them going out.

After a round of greetings, the two were sent away.

"Do they want to see you?"

Xu Zijin nodded and told them everything: "I will go to the Division Art Troupe tomorrow morning and do two makeups for them to compare first."

After listening to this, Lu Hanzhou murmured in his heart: Little girl, where did you come from?

——Your ability doesn’t seem like that of a country girl. Could it be that during the three years you studied in the provincial capital, that person secretly trained you?

——But...isn't this too difficult?

——Obviously, she had a fiancé at that time.

——And in these three years, she has never appeared in front of me... It doesn’t make sense... My head hurts!

Deep down, Lu Hanzhou didn't want Xu Zijin to have any relationship with the person he didn't want to know.

"What are you thinking? Do you think it's a pity that I gave up this opportunity?"

Seeing the man in front of him staring at him without saying anything, Xu Zijin poked him...

Lu Hanzhou immediately raised his eyes and looked at Xu Zijin: "Do you know how many people want to be female soldiers? And they are female soldiers who have been promised promotion."

"In two years, you will be a formal military cadre, which is more prestigious than being a teacher."

"You really don't want to reconsider it? This opportunity is rare."
