On the train continuing north, at the next stop, three ordinary men reluctantly got off the train.
"Four-Eyes, what's wrong with you? Why are you stopping me from making a move?" one of the shorter men asked angrily.
He's a Kuaishou user, and he's already set his sights on his target.
“Yeah, Four-Eyes. The train is full of students, what could possibly happen?” Another man with small eyes stared at the man called Four-Eyes with displeasure.
"There's a girl who must have noticed me."
I think she might have already informed the train attendant. On a train, if someone is watching us, we'll get caught if we make a move.
The one speaking at this moment was the man whom Chen Xihua had glanced at.
He pretended to be embarrassed, but was secretly delighted.
Actually, when the other six people got off the train, he noticed that the old man had a bulge in his waistband, and he had already made a smuggling.
Neither of his two companions knew, but he quickly added a few more words of explanation.
"Based on my experience, the reason we were able to remain undetected so many times before, besides my keen senses, is also because of an intuition."
If we make a move this time, we'll definitely be in trouble, and our target this time is those three girls.
The other two accomplices' expressions softened slightly upon hearing this, though they were still somewhat angry and disappointed.
Actually, before they even boarded the train, they noticed that each of the three girls had a brand-new small mobile phone worth several thousand yuan.
The girl with the tall figure had a camera hanging around her neck.
The three girls were their targets this time.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard house in Beijing, after washing up, Chen Xihua lay comfortably on the kang (heated brick bed) that hadn't been heated yet. She took out her phone and set it to ringtone.
Before boarding the train yesterday.
Chen Xihua asked her two older sisters to take out their phones and put them on vibrate.
She considered that in this day and age, it was quite remarkable for three young women to each have a mobile phone.
Therefore, it's best to set everything to vibrate, so that your phone doesn't suddenly ring on the train and alert others, or the ringtone doesn't suddenly disturb others.
But she didn't know that she was already being watched and someone was planning to steal from her.
Chen Xihua, who was being treated like a fat sheep, just remembered the three thieves on the train.
She was still a little confused as to why they hadn't made a move.
However, it was fortunate that the three men did not harm her.
If they really take action, Chen Xihua will let them know why the flowers are so red.
——
The next morning, Chen Xihua, along with her eldest and fourth sisters, slowly walked out of the alley.
She looked up and around; this was truly a wonderful place.
The everyday life of ordinary people in Beijing: breakfast stalls selling steamed buns and fried dough sticks, sugar-coated fried dough cake shops, millet porridge vendors, and douzhi (fermented mung bean juice), etc.
Chen Xihua also saw coal carts going through the streets and alleys. On both sides of the alley, several old men were chatting, and some were humming tunes.
At this time, people are simple, honest, warm, and straightforward. Although some people live a hard life, it is peaceful and harmonious.
"Hello sir, three servings of douzhi, five steamed buns, and three youtiao (fried dough sticks)," Chen Xihua said cheerfully as she jogged to a breakfast stall at the corner of the alley.
Her voice was clear and melodious, and her eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she smiled, displaying an air of natural familiarity.
"Alright. Young ladies, are you new residents? Judging from your accents, you're from the south?" Grandpa Zhao greeted them with a smile, very warmly.
He couldn't help but glance at the three young women who walked up to his stall a few more times.
She's really pretty, full of energy, with clear and bright eyes; she must be from a good family.
Several nearby vendors would occasionally glance over, wanting to strike up a conversation.
"Yes, sir, we are from Jiang City in Nan Province."
My surname is Chen, and I'm the fifth child in my family. You can call me Xiao Wu. Next to me are my eldest sister and fourth sister.
We are all still studying, attending university in Beijing.
The sixth courtyard on the left, up ahead, is one my family bought. We'll be neighbors from now on, so please take care of us.
Chen Xihua was very frank and straightforward, speaking without any guile.
She raised her voice a little, deliberately making sure the people next to her could hear her clearly.
She felt that since she would be living here frequently in the future, interacting more with her neighbors was a good idea.
Moreover, for now, it's just her and her sister who come to stay on weekends.
That way, we can make a good impression first, so that if anything happens, the neighbors can help out.
Otherwise, if the bad impression of having eyes on one's forehead is left, it will be very difficult to reverse.
Just like in the family residential area of Gaoyang County, Chen Xihua was very impatient with those busybodies, aunties and grandmas.
She didn't want to be the kind of person who lived a secluded life.
Furthermore, they came from other provinces and had no connections.
I don't want to be pointed at and gossiped about in the future, with people saying: "That family lives in a house full of pretty girls."
We don't know yet, maybe they're doing some shady work?
Public opinion can be a powerful force.
So last night, Chen Xihua decided to come and check in first thing this morning.
People nowadays generally have a very good attitude towards university students.
Grandpa Zhao understood immediately and casually asked, "College students, that's good. Which universities did you go to?"
"Uncle, I'm from Peking University, and my fourth sister is from Tsinghua University. We both just got into university this year. My eldest sister is a senior at the University of Humanities." Chen Xihua said, pretending to be a little embarrassed, but he wasn't overly modest.
She acted with great poise and grace.
Chen Chunhua and Chen Xiuhua both smiled slightly, displaying their inner beauty and poise.
"Wow, that's amazing! He's even a top student from Peking University or Tsinghua University! That's incredible!" The old lady selling jianbing guozi across the street couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
At first glance, she appears to be a warm and cheerful person.
"Yes, our Xingfuli Hutong has produced college students from Peking University and Tsinghua University all at once. If word gets out, people will be extremely envious."
"Fifth Miss Chen, come to my house another day and try my millet porridge."
"Okay, thank you, ma'am. I've been wanting to try it for a long time. I'll come again tomorrow." Chen Xihua blended in naturally.
Holding steamed buns and fried dough sticks in her hand, she ate as she walked over to look at the other stalls, occasionally smiling and greeting the owners.
Asking questions and exploring, they chatted enthusiastically with a group of elderly men and women.
Chen Chunhua and Chen Xiuhua, who were following behind, shook their heads and smiled: This is the She Niu that Xiao Wu was talking about.
After Chen Xihua and her two sisters left, a few middle-aged women in the alley whispered a few words to each other.
"I was worried before about what kind of people would buy the No. 6 courtyard, but now it seems like they're doing quite well."
"Yes, before Old Zhang was taken abroad by his son, he said that a young girl bought his house."
I thought to myself, someone who can pull out two million at once must be a shady character.
Thankfully, it isn't.
"Definitely not. The tallest one, the youngest, is very likable. A family that can raise three college students can't be too poor in terms of family background and upbringing."
