Chapter 33 Hunger Strike

Huo Jingyuan sat in the driver's seat.

Xue Li saw Wen Ci open the door, lowered his head and coughed, and then the young men standing behind him shouted in unison, "Hello, sister-in-law."

"Hello..." Wen Ci blinked.

Xue Li saw his sister-in-law's confusion and quickly explained: "We are here to help."

Wen Ci suddenly realized what was going on, opened all the doors, went back into the house to boil some water, and glanced at the clock in the living room. It was almost five o'clock.

It's almost time for dinner.

Huo Jingyuan carried a wooden board into the yard.

Wen Ci took small steps and waved towards Huo Jingyuan. When he came closer, he said, "Let your subordinates come to help. Can you show us your skills tonight?"

The man's face darkened.

He only cooks for his wife and has no intention of letting his subordinates taste his cooking.

"I'll go to the cafeteria to get some food later."

"Isn't this bad?"

Huo Jingyuan raised his eyelids: "What's wrong with that?"

The wooden boards used to build the pavilion can be assembled directly. Huo Jingyuan specially bought spray paint, and the original wood color of the pavilion looks a bit strange.

Xue Li asked while working: "Sister-in-law, can you let us stay and watch TV tonight?"

Wen Ci smiled gently: "Of course."

It took several people an hour to build the pavilion, and they also paved a path leading to the pavilion in the yard with gravel.

Finally, Huo Jingyuan first sprayed the pavilion with the color of pear wood, and then sprayed it with anti-corrosion paint inside and outside. The yard renovation was only halfway to completion.

Wen Ci looked at the pavilion in the yard and was very satisfied.

-

On the other side, in the capital compound, the Jiang family.

Jiang Ye locked herself in the room and curled up on the bed. She hadn't eaten for three days and relied on the few snacks left in the room.

When she was reborn, she had no money.

The only way to force them to agree is to go on a hunger strike.

Suddenly, Jiang Ye heard a sound outside the window. He turned over in bed and looked towards the window. A figure appeared outside the window.

Jiang Chen climbed to the second-floor balcony and opened the window. After climbing into the room, he walked to the bed and sighed softly: "Xiao Ye Zi, do you really need to go on a hunger strike for three days?"

Jiang Ye hid in the quilt and didn't say anything.

"Have you really thought about going to the Northwest?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ye poked her head out from under the quilt. She looked pale, tears welled up in her eyes, and she sobbed and said, "I'm serious, brother."

"Ah." Jiang Chen sighed deeply. After these few days, he had thought it through. Jiang Ye would find a way to accomplish what he had decided on, no matter what.

Instead of stopping her, it is better to let her go to the northwest to encounter some obstacles first.

Jiang Chen took out a few hundred yuan from his bag and said in an unusually serious voice: "I asked my comrades to find you a job as a teacher in the Northwest Military Region. If you find it hard over there, then come back to review for the college entrance examination."

"Brother, you promised me to go to the northwest?!"

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Ye lifted the quilt, took advantage of the situation and climbed Jiang Chen's arm, and couldn't suppress the joy in his tone: "Brother, do my parents know?"

"I don't know, so you have to sneak out. Your high school boyfriend is still waiting for you at the gate of the compound."

The family compound in the capital is an important place for government agencies, and non-military family members are not allowed to enter at will. Gu Zhe had no one to take him there, so he could only wait at the door.

Jiang Ye: “…”

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Ye made up her mind to run away secretly. After all, she was not the biological daughter of the Jiang family, so she could wait to separate Wen Ci and Huo Jingyuan.

Her life was much better than in the Jiang family.

Jiang Ye took the money from her brother, packed her suitcase and took the train to Hai City tonight. As for Gu Zhe, she didn't plan to meet him again.
