As soon as May enters, summer has officially entered in the southeast base.
The strawberries planted by Xu Qiao also turned red.
The small yard has a limited area and is suitable for growing larger plants such as cucumbers, beans, and eggplants, or vegetables with well-developed root systems such as carrots and potatoes, and then growing small vegetables in indoor planting pots.
Every inch of land is precious indoors, and beauty and living comfort have to be taken into consideration, so Xu Qiao only keeps strawberries in four planting pots, as well as lemons, kumquats, and figs that are kept separately in the main and secondary bedrooms and the study. They are better than nothing. .
At around six o'clock in the morning, Xu Qiao carefully picked a plate of fifteen completely red strawberries and took them to the kitchen for cleaning.
Lu Yang also got up very early, washed rice and cooked it, and was sitting in the living room endorsing books.
The new era combines the junior high school and high school subjects of the old era into a five-year middle school curriculum. The workload is quite large. Regardless of whether you apply for an ordinary university or a military academy, if you want to enter the top institutions of the two, you must have top liberal arts scores.
Whether you can awaken your spiritual body may depend on luck, but knowledge can be accumulated through hard work. Even ordinary people without special powers can still earn a decent salary if they can achieve outstanding achievements in a certain field. According to statistics, nearly 30% of the employees in several large companies in the central area, including official departments, are scholars and technical elites among ordinary people.
Xu Qiao washed the strawberries, divided them into two porcelain plates, pointed to the plate with six strawberries, and called Lu Yang: "Go give it to Mr. Qin, he should be awake."
He mentioned Qin Chi to Lu Yang in private, Xu Qiao is still accustomed to using honorific titles.
Lu Yang knew that she loved eating strawberries, so he whispered: "He changes the flower baskets twice a week. He must buy the fruits randomly, so why should you give them to him?"
Xu Qiao: "He bought the ones he bought, and we gave them to him ." It's a token of my heart. If you don't want to move, I'll go by myself."
Lu Yang looked at her lips as red as strawberries, took the plate and left.
Standing in front of the door of room 102, Lu Yang knocked on the door twice and waited for a few seconds when footsteps came from inside.
It was obviously so hot, but the elegant tenant who opened the door was actually wearing a white long-sleeved shirt. His short hair on his forehead was slightly damp, and he seemed to have just washed his face.
"Good morning." Qin Chi greeted the middle school student with a smile.
Lu Yang felt awkward, so he gave a perfunctory voice and handed over the fruit plate in his hand: "Just picked it."
Qin Chi could already smell the sweet and sour strawberry aroma. He looked at the open door of 101 and accepted it generously: "Thank you."
Lu Yang Yang turned around and left, closing the door behind his back, and saw Xu Qiao already sitting at the dining table and eating.
Lu Yang sat back on the sofa and prepared to continue reading.
Xu Qiao glared at him: "Why, you want me to stuff a strawberry into your mouth?"
Lu Yang: "No, I don't like eating this."
Xu Qiao: "My grandpa gave you strawberries when you were a kid. Can you take a bite? " Stuff two."
Lu Yang: "..."
Xu Qiao shook his head, left four strawberries for the middle school students, and went to the kitchen to make scallion egg pancakes with fresh green onions.
Lu Yang took the plate to the second bedroom and ate one hesitantly. The remaining three were put into Qin Chi's mortgaged space crystal cores and would be taken out to her after winter.
Qin Chi's working hours are still very free. As long as he completes his teaching tasks and homework corrections, he can leave the military academy early at any time.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, Xu Qiao was still working at the clinic, and Qin Chi had already returned to the community.
It was still a little early to prepare dinner. Qin Chi took off his coat and sat on the single sofa in the living room reading a book wearing only a white shirt.
The S-level superpower strengthened his physique. Even though the sound insulation of the house in Ping An Community was pretty good, Qin Chi still heard the sound of bicycles riding over on the street.
He glanced outside and saw a curly-haired lady who looked to be in her sixties or seventies. Of course, if she was a person with powers, her actual age might be older.
The unfamiliar curly-haired lady stopped in front of the fifth building. She held her bicycle and looked back and forth at the small courtyard of the Xu and Lu families. She also poked her head into the Lu family's living room with half-open curtains.
Qin Chi controlled the wind and pulled up the white window screen outside to block the other party's rude peeks.
The fire dragon in his mind flicked its tail irritably.
At this time, Aunt Liu's voice came from the balcony of 202 upstairs: "Come on, the car is parked right there. Come up quickly. I just want to change the baby's diaper and I can't go down to pick it up."
The curly-haired lady laughed. Said: "No, no, I can go up by myself."
With the sound of climbing up the stairs, the curly-haired lady entered the Liu house in 202.
Qin Chi didn't want to eavesdrop, but he couldn't help the two ladies chatting happily, so the conversation drifted downstairs through the open window on the second floor.
Curly-haired lady: "Xu Qiao doesn't seem to know how to live well. I see there are so many open spaces in the yard. If you plan carefully, you can grow more vegetables."
Aunt Liu: "Their family has always had a small population, and the therapist's treatment is not good. Okay, her grandpa likes to take care of the courtyard this way, so she should follow suit. Besides, she can eat it by herself now."
When he mentioned his landlord and teammate, the fire dragon was about to move, and Qin Chi's eyes also flickered from the page. Moved away.
Curly-haired lady: "Do you have any photos?"
Aunt Liu: "Yes, when I was little. After she went to middle school, she left early and came home late. I didn't think I could take a picture of her with my communication bracelet."
Curly-haired lady: "It's okay, I'll wait. You can see someone soon. By the way, according to you, she is beautiful and a therapist. She also has her own house. The conditions are so good. No one has matched her in the past few years."
Aunt Liu: "Yes? Ah, there are several people in our neighborhood who want to marry her, but she has only graduated from the military academy for two years. She said she doesn’t want to consider marriage too early. In addition, the Lu family has supported her before, so they broke up when they saw that she was unwilling. . If you hadn't asked me to help you introduce a suitable daughter-in-law, I wouldn't have thought of it. It would be so embarrassing if it happened."
Curly-haired lady: "What happened to the Lu family?"
Aunt Liu explained. .
Curly-haired lady: "Ah, I'm going to be sixteen soon. Why do these two people move in together? Could it be..."
Aunt Liu: "That's not possible. Children who grew up together are no different from siblings. Xu Qiao also mentioned to me that he wanted to use the rent to pay for Xiao Lu's military school tuition. Hey, let me tell you, I really I like Xu Qiao very much, and I only helped because your Jiang Rui is suitable for Xu Qiao in all aspects. You must not offend anyone in front of Xu Qiao and embarrass me. "
The Jiang family and his son are all in the escort. , although his military rank is not high, he has some connections, so Aunt Liu has to support her.
But if the Jiang family continues to be picky and suspicious, Aunt Liu would rather not be involved in this matter.
Curly-haired lady: "Don't worry, can I still believe your vision? Just wait, as long as Xu Qiao is as good-looking as you praise me, I won't care about it in the future and let Jiang Rui try to pursue it on his own. Young people like free love. I I just want to check for Jiang Rui in advance and know the basics to avoid misunderstandings among young people in the future."
Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief.
The conversation moved on to other family matters.
Qin Chi opened the book again.
About half an hour later, Xu Qiao came back. Qin Chi didn't look outside, but heard footsteps rushing upstairs to the balcony.
When Xu Qiao responded to 101, a new conversation came from upstairs.
Aunt Liu: "How is it?"
Curly-haired lady: "...You are so beautiful, can you like our Jiang Rui?"
Except for free love, it is difficult for ordinary low-level superpowers to marry high-level superpowers through introduction, but treatment Teachers are different.
Even the lowest level C-level healer can heal various injuries and diseases, but at best the efficiency and durability are not as good as those of high-level healers.
If a person with supernatural powers marries a therapist as his wife, he can take his wife with him to take care of him and heal his injuries and save his life when he is doing tasks or going to the battlefield. He can also arrange for his wife to take over the daily medical care of the entire family, which is better than going to a hospital or clinic. It is more affordable and less troublesome to queue up and spend high fees for consultation.
Therefore, it is common for C-level therapists to marry B-level superpowers. If they have outstanding facial features, it is not impossible to marry A-level superpowers.
From the perspective of the curly-haired lady, as long as Xu Qiao has the will and the channels, she can definitely compete with the high-level superpowers in the central area.
Aunt Liu: "She's not that ambitious. There were B-level classmates who chased her when she was in military school. She didn't agree, so she just wanted to live a simple life in peace. Let Jiang Rui give it a try. Jiang Rui is good-looking and personable. He is also steady, maybe Xu Qiao likes this reliable type, and with military friends being exempted from basic tasks, Jiang Rui's conditions are enough to be popular in our second ring." When the curly-haired lady heard this, she immediately felt confident
.
Joe didn't see the curly-haired lady, but when she came home from work the next day, she found an SUV parked on the roadside five buildings away.
When she got off her bicycle outside the courtyard, she saw Aunt Liu accompanying a tall man out of the unit door.
The road between the two small courtyards was not wide. Xu Qiao stood aside holding his bicycle, ready to wait for them to come out before turning in.
"Xiao Qiao is off work."
Aunt Liu greeted Xu Qiao with a natural smile.
Xu Qiao smiled and nodded. Seeing the strange man stop and look straight over, she looked towards the small courtyard next to her.
Aunt Liu didn't expect that her acting skills were natural. Jiang Rui's chain dropped. She patted Jiang Rui's arm lightly and explained to Xu Qiao: "This is Jiang Rui, my friend's son. He just completed a mission with the escort." Danger zone clean-up task, come and see me during your vacation." Jiang Rui also recovered from the shock of the first glance, straightened his back, and stretched out a hand to Xu Qiao: "Hello, I am. "Jiang Rui."
He behaved with a seriousness that is common among soldiers.
The Guards are the main force in major bases. From cleaning up dangerous areas to resisting the tide of beasts that threaten the base, the Guards are always on the front line.
Xu Qiao did not have the courage to join the army, so he admired those who took the initiative to join the army even more.
Seeing that Jiang Rui's eyes were not as aggressive and rude as some male mercenaries, but more of admiration, Xu Qiao shook his hand in response: "Hello, my name is Xu Qiao."
Twenty-year-old The young therapist has clear eyes and a bright smile, and his exposed cheeks and neck are fair and shiny.
Jiang Rui withdrew her hand as if it was being burned, fearing that the thick calluses on his palm would hurt her delicate skin.
He had a pair of handsome thick black eyebrows, and his deep black eyes continued to stare at the beautiful girl in front of him uncontrollably.
When her mother urged her to go out, Jiang Rui had no expectations for this one-sided meeting. However, at this moment, Jiang Rui was already anxious about what excuse he should find to see her next time.
He had no experience with young girls.
Diagonally opposite the 102 living room.
Qin Chi hid behind the light golden curtains, watching Xu Qiao push the bicycle around Aunt Liu, and then watched the guard named Jiang Rui, who seemed to be taken away and frozen in place.
Qin Chi smiled.
He had almost forgotten that the early twenties were indeed the peak period for normal men and women to meet partners and enjoy relationships.
