Chapter 42 Why?!

Jiang Ye's grades were average, but he was more than qualified to be an elementary school teacher in the northwest region. In that era, only a few people had a junior high school education.

Just by listening to Jiang Ye's righteous words, people who didn't know the truth would really think that she had come from afar to serve the Northwest and support education.

After saying this, Jiang Ye looked at Huo Jingyuan with tears in her eyes, her voice trembling with a hint of weakness: "Brother-in-law, I have been on the train for several days and nights, and I didn't get enough rest last night. Can you let me get some sleep first?"

A cunning look flashed in her eyes. As long as she could live in the family compound, she would not leave even if she threw a tantrum. This way, she could successfully contact Huo Jingyuan.

The guesthouse requires a letter of introduction. Jiang Ye had sneaked out of the capital, and there was no one to help him get the letter of introduction, so he could only sit in the train station until midnight.

Wen Ci drooped his eyelids, "Didn't Northwest Primary School arrange a dormitory for you?"

Jiang Ye remained silent.

Before coming, Jiang Chen told her very clearly that most of the teachers in the primary school were military families, so her living conditions would be very poor.

It is said that it is not as big as one's own room.

Suddenly, Jiang Ye looked at the lunch box in Huo Jingyuan's hand. Instead of standing still at the door, he decided to find an excuse to go in first. "Can you let me have a bite of the hot meal first?"

"No." Huo Jingyuan replied calmly.

He only ordered food for himself and Wen Ci. If he went to the cafeteria now, there would probably only be leftovers. Huo Jingyuan looked indifferent:

"You just came to Northwestern, you should first find the school person in charge to help you arrange things."

When Wen Ci heard this, he looked at Huo Jingyuan with a hint of surprise in his eyes. This bastard could actually identify a green tea.

"sister……"

Wen Ci raised his hand: "Stop it. I don't have any sisters, so stop trying to get close to me."

"Just think of it as my biological parents' sake."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Ci glanced at her lightly, a chill in his eyes, and spoke slowly: "If you don't mention them, maybe I will be soft-hearted and treat you to a meal.

But you have to mention them.”

Her memories of her adoptive parents are all painful.

When Jiang Ye moved out of his adoptive parents' house, there was a hint of murderous intent and hostility in the look she gave Jiang Ye.

Suddenly Huo Jingyuan grabbed her wrist. She looked down at the man's rough hand. The emotion in her eyes gradually faded. She raised her head and curled her lips:

"I wonder if Jiang's parents know that you are coming to the northwest."

Wen Ci was certain that Jiang's parents didn't know.

No parent would want their daughter, whom they have pampered for more than 20 years, to come to the northwest to be a primary school teacher, not to mention that Jiang Ye is at the critical time of the college entrance examination.

"I..." Jiang Ye hesitated, his eyelids drooped, and after thinking again and again, he picked up the suitcase and bit his lip, "Then I'll come visit you another day."

-

After Jiang Ye left, Huo Jingyuan took his wife's hand and walked into the house. Wen Ci told Huo Jingyuan everything on the green train.

She didn't want to hide anything from him.

As a result, Huo Jingyuan had a very bad influence on the woman from the Jiang family who stole Wen Ci's identity.

However, he was also glad that he married Wen Ci.

At the dinner table, Wen Ci stared at Huo Jingyuan, sizing him up boldly, thinking about Jiang Ye's various reactions and words when he was at the door.

Suddenly realizing what was going on, Wen Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, a faint smile on his lips, and said lightly: "So, she came for you."

"Hmm?" Huo Jingyuan was confused: "What are you targeting me?"

"fine."

The other side.

Jiang Ye dragged her tired body to the army's jurisdiction, and when she learned that she was a high school student who had taken the initiative to teach in the northwest, they treated her very warmly.

After assigning her a room, he took out two keys and said, "Teacher Jiang, do you want to live in the staff quarters or the school dormitory?"

Northwest Primary School has two old dormitories where sundries are stored. Although the rooms are old, they are still quite large, except that the shower area is a bit far from the dormitory.

Jiang Ye asked: "Is there any difference?"

"There's not much difference. One is old and the other is new. It's not convenient to take a shower in the school dormitory, and there aren't many people there at night. But in the staff quarters, you can take a shower in the building."

Jiang Ye thought for a few seconds and said, "Then I'll choose the family quarters."

Even if I can't live in Huo Jingyuan's home, I will have more opportunities to interact with him by living in the staff quarters.

Jiang Ye returned to the family compound again.

The three-bedroom house and the one-bedroom house were in completely different directions. Jiang Ye stood downstairs and looked up with a frown. She lived on the fourth floor.

There were about two windows in each room. Jiang Ye gritted her teeth and carried her suitcase to the fourth floor. After opening room 402, her eyes widened.

The room in front of her was extremely small, with only a table and a bed inside. The only space available was a narrow path. She bit her lower lip tightly.

The conditions in the northwest are really too bad.

Although she suffered a lot of grievances when she married Gu Zhe in her previous life, she had always lived a good life and had never lived in such a small room.

"Where is the bathing place?" Jiang Ye murmured.

She couldn't help but look around. At the end of the corridor was the shower room and the public toilet. She covered her mouth and nose with disgust, and thought of the house where Wen Ci lived, and clenched her fists.

Why?!

Why can she have her own bathroom?

How can she live in such a big house?

It was obvious that she had snatched all of them from me.

Jiang Ye was both resentful and angry, but it was useless. Suddenly, she thought of her brother. She wanted to throw her luggage into the room, and went to the guard room of the family compound. She asked delicately, "Can I make a phone call?"

"Who are you calling?" the guard asked.

"To my brother at home."

"The phone in the guard room is only connected to the Northwest Military Region. If you want to make a call outside the province, you can only go to the army or pay to go to the cafeteria to make a call."

Jiang Ye remembered that he hadn't eaten yet: "Which way is the cafeteria?"

When they arrived at the cafeteria, the windows were already being cleaned. Jiang Ye walked to the window and asked, "Excuse me, is there any food left?"

“No more.”

Jiang Ye: “…”

She was a little upset. Looking at the leftovers on the big iron plate, she remembered the completely empty lunch box on the green train and couldn't help swallowing.

"Can you sell me that food?"

The canteen waiter glanced at Jiang Ye and said impatiently, "You look so well dressed, why don't you go cook some food yourself? What's the big deal about these leftovers?"

The leftover food after the cafeteria window closes can be taken home.

Sometimes people will take food home to save a meal.

Jiang Ye: "How much does it cost?"

"Not expensive, just one dollar."

Jiang Ye nodded: "It's really not expensive."

She ordered some food and planned to make a phone call first. Beijing was considered a long-distance call, so she took out one dollar and called home, and heard Jiang's mother's voice.

Jiang Ye kept his mouth tightly shut.

Jiang's father and mother didn't know she came to the Northwest Military Region. After she sneaked out, she and Jiang Chen made up a lie that she was going to stay at a classmate's house to prepare for the college entrance examination.

"Who is it? Why aren't you talking?"

When Jiang Chen heard the sound of a phone call, he rushed to the landline at home and said seriously, "Mom, it might be for me. Let me answer the phone."
