Chapter 73 Doubt
Ning Qingzhi, who had just received the letter, knew it was from his sister when he saw the mailing address. His parents had written to him in advance, and he knew that his sister had already gone to this place to work in the countryside.
Ning Qingzhi opened the letter excitedly, and when he was about to read it, he found that Ji Yanming next to him was staring at him.
"Old Ji, why are you looking at me while I'm reading a letter? It scares me so much that I can't even continue reading. Let me tell you, this letter is from my sister, please don't bother me while I'm reading it!"
"Okay, take your time, I'm going to read a book."
Ji Yanming pretended nothing had happened. He turned around calmly, picked up the Art of War on the table, and leaned back in his chair to read it.
"That's pretty good." Ning Qingzhi walked to the bedside and sat down to watch with satisfaction.
Although Ji Yanming was holding a book in his hand, he did not read a single word. Instead, he was secretly observing the reactions of his teammates.
Ning Qingzhi opened the envelope and found two pieces of paper folded in half, one for him and the other addressed to his brother's comrade-in-arms.
"Hey, Old Ji, this one seems to be written to you. What did you do? Why would my sister write you a thank-you letter? Did you meet my sister when you passed by our Yue County?"
When Ji Yanming heard that there was also a copy for himself, he immediately discarded the Art of War that he was using for show.
"Give me my letter. You should be able to find the answer by reading your own letter. I'll tell you what's going on after you read it."
"Okay, I'll talk to you after I finish reading the letter." Ning Qingzhi handed over another thank-you letter and looked at his own letter carefully.
Ji Yanming smiled when he received another thank-you letter from the same person.
The little girl loves writing thank-you letters.
After opening the letter and seeing the familiar handwriting, Ji Yanming began to read it carefully. The more he read, the more familiar the content became.
I took out the letter I had received before from my bag, opened it and compared it. Wow, except for the name of the person being thanked, one is Comrade Ji and the other is Comrade Comrade. There are also different events for thanksgiving.
The rest of the content, even the punctuation and sentence division, was exactly the same as the letter he had received before, full of clichés.
It looks sincere and heartfelt, but in fact only the beginning paragraph is a true expression of feelings, and the rest is just emotionless slogans.
Ji Yanming looked at the same cliché at the end of the two thank-you letters and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It can be seen that the little girl knows how to write a thank-you letter and has a good sense of propriety towards strangers she is not very familiar with.
Ning Qingzhi became angrier and angrier as he read the entire letter, slamming the table as he finished reading it.
"This is outrageous, this is really outrageous, how could these two people treat my sister like this, I wish I could shoot Zhang Yuan and Ning Xiaoxiao, they are so abominable, Old Ji, tell me the situation quickly, I need to ask for leave."
Ji Yanming put away both letters and looked at his angry brother: "Don't worry, I'll tell you the situation."
Next, Ji Yanming told Ning Qingzhi everything he knew, which calmed Ning Qingzhi down. He said fiercely, "When I go back for the New Year, I will punish those two. They dare to bully my sister, humph."
"Don't say my sister is so smart, so amazing." The sister completely turned into a brainless boast, and patted Ji Yanming on the shoulder: "Thank you too, Old Ji."
"I need to send more things to Yueyue. Old Ji, please lend me some money and the new military coat. I will send more to her. I don't know if two military coats are enough. She is a little girl living alone in the countryside. It's cold there in winter. We need to prepare more."
After saying that, he started packing up some things he had to send to his sister.
Ji Yanming took out some banknotes and handed them to Ning Qingzhi, then took out a box of candies from the drawer and handed it to him.
"This is for you. My mother forced it on me. I don't like it. You can eat it."
"Thanks, buddy. I'll bring you some pheasant meat next time we go out for field training." Ning Qingzhi saw the exquisite box of candies in his hand and had an idea in his mind: "Old Ji, I'll eat one and send the rest to my sister to try. Do you mind?"
Ji Yanming raised his head from the book and glanced at it, not caring at all: "I give it to you, you can do whatever you want with it, no need to ask for my opinion."
Ning Qingzhi looked at the money in his left hand, then at the candy in his right hand, and felt extremely grateful.
"Old Ji, you are so kind, thank you, I will return the money and tickets to you when I get the subsidy."
"Don't worry. You can't get away, and I don't need it urgently. I haven't picked up the military coat yet. I'll bring it back to you tomorrow."
Ning Qingzhi was moved by Ji Yanming. He was a good comrade-in-arms and a really good man.
Ji Yanming was in a good mood and continued to read the book in his hand.
Ning Qingzhi packed up a big bag and only kept two dollars in bills for himself. He packed the rest of the money and waited to mail it to Ning Xiyue tomorrow.
Ning Xiyue didn't know that her brother had packed up most of his assets and prepared to mail them to her so that she would not suffer in the countryside and would have a better life, and he had also borrowed money from abroad.
She is now carrying the meat into the house.
Her small kitchen was not finished yet and could not be used to store anything.
Chen Yetu took the initiative to ask her to put the meat in the room where they were resting, and he also helped Ning Xiyue move the meat.
After moving the meat, the two sat down to rest, "Thank you, Ye Chu."
"It's okay. By the way, how about you go to see your brother today? I heard Ning Xiaoxiao talking about going to visit her cousin next door yesterday. That should be your brother."
Chen Yetu said tentatively.
Suddenly I remembered that Ning Xiaoxiao was arrested for ten days. After she came out, the incident in her previous life was over. Does this mean that the previous situation will not happen again? Xiyue’s brother should be fine.
When Ning Xiyue heard this, she knew that Chen Yechu remembered her past life and was now reminding her.
He smiled gratefully at her and said, "Yes, it's my brother, but she won't get any good results if she goes after my brother. I've already told my brother about the falling out between her and me, and of course my brother is on my side. If she goes after my brother, she should be prepared to be beaten."
Chen Yetu nodded and let down the curtain, wondering where Xiyue was in his previous life and why he had never seen her in the Youth League Home.
Oh yes, Ning Xiaoxiao said that she had a cousin who died in an accident before going to the countryside.
Chen Yechu turned his head and looked at the scar on Ning Xiyue's forehead: "Xiyue, does the scar on your forehead still hurt?"
Ning Xiyue's heart skipped a beat, and she calculated with her fingers. It was Chen Yechu who suspected her. After all, in her previous life, the original owner died before going to the countryside, and there was no such person as her in the Youth League Institute.
When her memories are brought back to mind at this time, it is inevitable that I will think of her existence.
Ning Xiyue pretended not to know and began to show off her acting skills. She had been performing since she was a child in the orphanage. Although she couldn't say that she had reached perfection, at least few people here could tell that she was acting.
Ning Xiyue's face showed three parts of pain, seven parts of relief, and one part of fear:
"It hurts, how could it not hurt? Sometimes I even feel a dull pain in the middle of the night. You don't know that I almost lost half my life at that time. I almost couldn't be rescued. If I hadn't been seen by a kind-hearted person who passed by and sent me to the hospital in time, you would never have seen me."
"Ning Xiaoxiao is really bad." Chen Yetu said indignantly.
"Yes, when I fell to the ground and vaguely saw Ning Xiaoxiao's foot that had not yet been retracted, I decided not to consider her as my sister anymore. From then on, we were enemies."
The two chatted for a while. Ning Xiyue packed her things and washed up. Chen Yechu then sat on the kang and said something out of the blue before closing the curtain.
"Xiyue, do you think we have a chance to pass the college entrance examination and go to university?"
Ning Xiyue laughed twice as if she heard a joke:
"Ye Chu, stop joking. The college entrance examination has been suspended for so many years. If you could have taken it, you would have taken it a long time ago. But if you want to go to university, you still have a chance. If you behave better, you might be able to be selected when there are quotas for workers, peasants and soldiers universities."
Chen Yechu chuckled: "Yeah, that's true, I was just imagining things, go take a shower, it's getting late."
"Okay, I've been tired all day, I have to finish it as soon as possible and go to sleep and rest."
Ning Xiyue packed her clothes and walked out with a smile.
No matter how hard you try to trick her into talking, you will never be able to do it again in this life. No one is allowed to know what she doesn't want to say.
