Chapter 1200: Preliminary Preparation
Three days later, the school's opening ceremony was held grandly. In particular, the military training results display of the freshmen won them a lot of praise and helped them integrate into the school quickly.
On the first weekend after school, Lianyi packed her bags and went back to visit her parents. Zhao Xinruo and Qian Luoxi were also from the city, so the three of them went together. Sun Guoguo and Li Xingyue were quite depressed, as they could only stay in the dormitory.
However, the two classmates from the city promised that everyone in the dormitory would act together next week, and they would be responsible for acting as guides for everyone to visit Changsha's famous attractions. This proposal was unanimously agreed by everyone in the dormitory, so the five people were all happy when they separated.
After Lianyi took the bus back to the staff quarters of the pharmaceutical factory, she ran into Old Man Xing downstairs. He was chatting with retired workers from the pharmaceutical factory.
"Dad, I'm back!"
Ripple said with a smile.
"Little sister, have you finished your military training?"
When Old Man Xing saw that it was his daughter who came back, he immediately went to greet her with a smile.
"Well, we have been in class for a week. Because I had to report the results of the military training, I didn't have time to come back. I took a break this weekend. I explained the situation to the teacher and came back to see you and mom."
Lianyi walked over, supported Old Man Xing and explained.
"Don't worry, your mother and I are doing fine. We have food and drinks. Sister Guan will take us to the park when she is free. Your mother is now shopping for vegetables with your Aunt Guan. They said that vegetables are cheaper in the afternoon."
Old man Xing explained in a rambling manner.
After the two returned to their rented house, Lianyi placed her things in the house that the old couple had reserved for her, and asked about the latest situation at home.
"Dad, have the things from my hometown been sent over?"
"It was sent directly to the pharmaceutical factory. I asked Guoqing to write the name of Sister Guan's son. This way, you don't have to worry about your three brothers coming to look for you."
Old Man Xing is now very wary of his three sons.
"Brother and the others knew that you and mother were going to stay here and not go back, so they didn't say anything?"
Ripple asked.
"What can they say? Just let us take care of ourselves."
"Tsk, they are so nice. They didn't even mention sending you some money for your retirement?"
"No, they still wanted to divide the old house, but I said I wanted to live here, so I sold the house since I didn't have any money."
Old Man Xing said simply.
"They didn't blame you?"
Ripple asked curiously.
"What are you complaining about? We have already separated. If they want a house, they can give me money for my retirement. If they don't want to pay, they can only shut up."
Old man Xing is now very open-minded and no longer expects his son to support him in his old age. After coming here, he and his wife have also discovered the advantages of big cities. At least it is convenient to find a doctor when you have a headache or fever. It’s not that doctors in county towns are not good, but some good medicines are indeed only available in big cities.
Especially this pharmaceutical factory, such a large unit, has its own kindergarten, hospital, vegetable market and convenience store, which can be said to be both convenient and safe.
In addition, with the kindness of the Huo family, the neighbors also take care of them, especially when they know that their daughter has been admitted to university and is studying in a military school, they are even more polite to the old couple. Old man Xing is very satisfied with his current life except that he is relatively free.
"So how is their business in the county?"
Ripple continued to ask.
"I heard from Guoqing that it's not bad, at least it earns more than farming."
Lianyi nodded after listening to this. After all, once the economy is fully opened up, more and more people from rural areas will go out to work.
"Dad, Mom hasn't come back yet. I have something to tell you."
Lianyi saw that Xing's mother was not there, so she changed the subject.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
"When we were in military training, the instructor found out that I was very strong and knew some martial arts, so he found me a part-time job."
"What job?"
Old Man Xing asked with his eyes wide open.
"Just cooperate with them to catch the bad guys."
Even if Lianyi said "agent", Old Man Xing probably wouldn't understand, so she explained it in plain language.
"Catch the bad guys! This is definitely dangerous. Can you handle it with your limited martial arts skills?"
Old Man Xing frowned, obviously not optimistic about this job.
"Dad, I'm a student, so I should focus on studying. Catching bad guys is just a side job. Besides, as you said, I'm a novice and have no experience. I won't take on any dangerous missions. At most, I can just assist.
I didn't refuse, mainly because I was thinking that I could earn tuition fees through this job, which would reduce the pressure on you and mom. Besides, this was introduced by the instructor, and they are all military officers, so they must be more reliable.
Another point is that I also have my own selfish motives. After all, we are from other provinces and have no roots here. After graduating from the military academy, we can only rely on ourselves for job assignments. Now that I have this job, it looks good on my resume and I can get in touch with senior leaders in advance, which can be regarded as paving the way for myself. "
Lianyi understood Old Man Xing’s concerns, but she also knew that the old man cared more about her future, so she gave a detailed explanation.
"Alas! It's because our parents are incompetent. We only know how to farm and don't know anything else. You will have to rely on yourself in the future. No matter what you do, you must put your own safety first."
Old Man Xing sighed imperceptibly, expressing his support for his daughter's decision.
"Dad, don't worry! Even for you, I won't put myself in danger easily."
Lianyi said immediately that as for what to do at that time, it would depend on the situation.
"Also, don't tell mom about this for now. I'm afraid she'll think too much. If dad wants to cooperate with me, just say I found a holiday part-time job."
Lianyi added that she chose this time to confront Old Man Xing in order to get her father to help cover for her.
"I know. I know what's going on. Your mother is a very thoughtful person. It's really not appropriate for her to know about this."
As soon as the two finished talking about this, Xing's mother came back with a basket of vegetables. Seeing her daughter back, she immediately went up to her and asked about her well-being. She kept saying that Lianyi had lost weight, showing her motherly love.
Lianyi had a wonderful weekend and then went back to school to continue her classes.
It was another weekend. Lianyi was originally going to go shopping with her roommates, but her homeroom teacher came to find her.
"Xing Lianyi, I just received a call. Your mother was robbed while buying groceries. She is in the hospital now. You should go there as soon as possible."
Lian Yi's face turned cold after hearing this, and she immediately asked:
"Teacher, which hospital is my mother in? Is her injury serious?"
"The injury shouldn't be serious, she's just frightened. You'd better go and comfort your mother. There's a car going the same way from the school. I've greeted them and will take you there now."
"Thank you, teacher!"
Lian Yi felt relieved and turned to look at her roommates. Before she could say anything, Zhao Xinruo said:
"Sister Lianyi, go to the hospital first to check on the situation. If everything is fine, please bring us a message. If you need help, please let me know. I live in this city, and my parents should be able to help."
"Yeah, me too. If you have any questions, just contact us."
Qian Luoxi immediately added that she still owed Lianyi a favor regarding the military training!
"Thank you. I'm leaving now. If I need help, I will definitely help you."
After saying that, Lianyi followed her tutor to the school gate.
When Lianyi got on the military jeep and saw a familiar person, he frowned and said:
"It's you."
It's the beginning of the month again, Fengling is asking for recommendations, subscriptions, rewards, and monthly tickets. Your support is very important, and Fengling also has to support her family. Thank you all! See you tomorrow~
