Chapter 24 It has to be a big city

Rong Jingchen raised his head and looked at Ye Muqi who was standing at the door of the second bedroom.

Suddenly, Rong Jingchen couldn't help but wonder whether he should have come back a day earlier so that he could take Ye Muqi for a walk around here, otherwise she would be a newcomer and not familiar with the surroundings at all.

And he will go to the military area tomorrow and has no time to take her with him.

"Will you come back for dinner in the evening?" Ye Muqi asked.

"Yes." Rong Jingchen nodded, "I will come back as long as there is nothing else."

In the past, even if he had nothing to do, he would always stay in the dormitory.

But now that I have brought Ye Muqi here, I should come back more often to accompany her when I am free. I can't let her stay at home alone.

"Okay, then I'll prepare dinner for you." Ye Muqi yawned: "Go to sleep, good night."

"……Good night."

Then Rong Jingchen saw his young wife walk into the room and close the door.

How to say it, he finally made up his mind to live with her and be a real couple, but his wife didn't want to sleep in the same room with him, and he felt a little unhappy for some reason!

…

The next day, when Ye Muqi woke up in the morning, Rong Jingchen had already gone out. She didn't know how long he had been gone.

Ye Muqi didn't care. He washed up, grabbed something to eat from the supermarket in the space, and prepared to go out.

I arrived too late yesterday, so I followed the car and could only observe through the car window. However, because it was dark, I could only see a limited amount. As a newcomer, I should really go out and get familiar with the surrounding environment. By then, I didn't even know where the gate of the yard was.

Ye Muqi took the key that Rong Jingchen had left for her and went out. As soon as she went downstairs, she met someone.

The two women, who should be military wives, looked older than her. They were carrying a basket filled with emerald green vegetables, white radishes, and a little meat. It was obvious that they had just come back from shopping for groceries.

The two of them walked together shoulder to shoulder, talking and laughing. When they saw Ye Muqi, they were stunned, with surprise on their faces.

People living in the military family compound are seen by everyone every day, not to mention that they live in the same building.

"Are you new here? Which family are you from?" After a moment's pause, one of the military wives with her hair in a bun immediately started talking to Ye Muqi enthusiastically.

We are all family members, and naturally everyone in the family is from the military region, maybe even from the same unit, so it is not strange to ask which family they are from.

"He's so handsome. Which boy is so lucky?" The other one also looked over with a smile.

The two of them looked at Ye Muqi's pretty and charming appearance with envy in their eyes.

"Rong Jingchen's house." Ye Muqi replied with a smile. They all lived here. Even if she didn't say it, everyone would know it sooner or later. There was no need to hide it.

"Captain Rong's lover? Isn't it said..." The military wife with a bun was a little surprised, and suddenly covered her mouth halfway through her words.

Ye Muqi thought about what Yin Daquan said in the car last night. Now it seems that the fact that Rong Jingchen married an ugly wife should have spread throughout the military area, and even his family members knew about it.

"I didn't mean to do that. It's all their fault for talking nonsense." The military wife with her hair in a bun immediately apologized, feeling that her previous reaction was not very good.

"It's okay." Ye Muqi really didn't care about this and waved his hands.

The vegetables in the two people's baskets looked quite fresh. I wonder if someone here grows vegetables to sell, or if there is a vegetable market here.

"Can I ask where you bought these dishes?" Ye Muqi asked.

"You just got here, you must be unfamiliar with the area, right?" The wife of the military officer with a bun was very enthusiastic. She took Ye Muqi's hand and pointed outside the gate. "Go out and turn left. Walk about ten meters and then turn right. There is a simple little shop there. They sell vegetables at the door in the morning. They sell rice, flour, grain, oil and everything else. If you need anything at home, just go there and buy it."

"The family compound is far from the city, and it's troublesome to go to the city. People seldom go out. Fortunately, a small shop opened there, which makes our life more convenient." Another person also echoed.

Ye Muqi nodded. It took him more than an hour to drive here from the train station yesterday. If he could only go to the city to buy vegetables, it would be inconvenient.

The haired military wife was really enthusiastic, otherwise they wouldn't have chatted for such a long time. Then she remembered that she had to go home to clean the bathroom, so she let go of Ye Muqi.

After saying goodbye to the military wife, Ye Muqi went to the small shop where they bought vegetables.

It's a small two-story house with a vegetable garden at the back. It looks like the owner lives here.

"Are you a new family member?" The uncle who was watching over the store saw that Ye Muqi looked unfamiliar and guessed that he was a newcomer.

Although, I haven't heard anyone in the family compound talking about who got married recently.

The uncle walked over with a smile, his leg seemed injured and he was limping.

"Don't be afraid, little girl. I was injured in the battlefield before, so I retired and started a small business here to make a living." The uncle saw Ye Muqi's delicate look and was worried that she would be scared, so he explained.

This is actually a wounded veteran?

"Don't be afraid, you are a hero." Ye Muqi has a deep respect for soldiers.

"No, no." The uncle smiled warmly, "Little girl, what do you want to buy? There are not many vegetables today. If you can wait, I can go to the vegetable garden to pick them."

Ye Muqi took a look at the dishes on the shelf. It was just a small wooden shelf with several baskets on each layer where the dishes were placed.

They probably didn’t pick too many fresh vegetables as they were almost all sold out. The bottom layer contained garlic, ginger and dried chilies that could be stored for a long time.

Selling vegetables is only part of the business. There is a simple small supermarket inside the house to meet the daily needs of the family.

Ye Muqi bought some rice and left.

After walking a long way and seeing that there was no one around, he put himself into the space and headed towards the city.

There are still too few people in the family compound, so it is not appropriate to open a store here.

There is already a store selling vegetables. If we open a restaurant, I think everyone will be more inclined to cook at home, so it will be difficult to open one.

"No wonder that sister said it's inconvenient to go to the city..." Ye Muqi wiped the sweat from his forehead and was a little out of breath.

She walked for a long distance and could not even see the shadow of the military compound, and could not get a taxi.

After resting for a while, Ye Muqi walked a long way before finally getting in the car.

…

Beijing, a big city, is many times more developed than Bada Town.

Ye Muqi walked on the street, looking at the people coming and going around him. There were some people dressed in bright and beautiful clothes. There were also many shops open on the street, and it was very lively.

"It has to be a big city after all." Ye Muqi sighed.

There are many people and shops, and there is no internal competition as in the modern world. Isn't this a paradise for making a lot of money?

Ye Muqi thought about the money she had kept in the space. The original owner had always had a lot of pocket money, and later on he learned cooking by himself. Although he was not very good at it, he still received a salary.

This time when she came to Beijing, her parents gave her extra money. Ye Zhengfeng also gave her all the money that Rong Jingchen had sent back after they got the marriage certificate. With the money in her hands, it should be no problem for her to buy a small shop.

Bar?
