"Comrade, these buns are freshly baked and are still hot. Look, the skins are so soft." The flight attendant handed over the buns wrapped in oil paper and took out two packets of soy milk.

Xie Zhi took out the money and gave it to her. The conductor looked around the carriage with a shrewd look, making sure that no one had bought it, and then quickly went to another carriage. The food had to be hot so that it would be easier to sell. Once it was cold and hard, people would pick and choose when they bought it.

Seeing how generous he was, everyone was envious, especially the woman who was selling products across from him.

"Jiaojiao, it's time to eat buns." Xie Zhi gently woke up the sleeping girl, who was already very tired.

Xu Jiaojiao rubbed her eyes coquettishly. Before she could see the person's face clearly, a bun with the right temperature was brought to her mouth. She took a bite subconsciously and found it was so soft.

“The buns are delicious.”

The girl took the bun and started eating it with Xie Yi. After drinking a mouthful of soy milk and the bun, her stomach, which had been feeling uncomfortable, was immediately warmed up.

Xu Jiaojiao couldn't eat any more after eating half of it, so Xie Zhi finished the rest. She also drank a few sips of the soy milk and then stopped.

"Want some candy?"

The girl's tone was soft. After wiping her hands and face with a tissue, she fell into Xie Zhi's arms and said, "No, I want to sleep. I'm so sleepy."

The man put their things on the table and looked at the time. There was still an hour before the arrival. Jiaojiao could only drink some water, but the woman opposite him still had something to say.

The man's sharp black eyes swept over and he had no choice but to shut his mouth in embarrassment.

He called last night to inform them that the two were coming. The eldest brother said he would come to pick them up no matter what. Thinking of the two heavy boxes, Xie Zhi did not refuse.

Soon the train arrived at the station. It was raining in Yuncheng and the temperature was a little colder. Xu Jiaojiao was wrapped in Xie Zhi's arms. When they walked out of the station, they saw Xu Shu waiting opposite the station.

The man was wearing a military uniform, with sharp eyebrows and sharp eyes. He was very handsome, but also too scary. Perhaps it was because he was a soldier, his temperament was much colder and harder.

Xu Jiaojiao stared blankly at Xu Shu as he walked towards them. She was extremely afraid of this big brother and only felt relieved when he was held in his arms.

Xu Shu saw that his sister almost didn't recognize him, and his nose was sour. When she left home, she was only as tall as her waist, but now she is a big girl. "You have worked hard all the way here. Big brother ordered some food. It's cold outside now. Let's go home and eat."

"Brother, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Xie Zhi and Xu Shu each carried a large box and then got on a military vehicle. Xie Zhi was no longer surprised by this and it was not impossible for him to be allocated a military vehicle according to his current position.

But Xu Jiaojiao was shocked. She finally understood why her father had always been at the top of the list in the village chief voting for many years. In fact, Xu's father was capable, but he was just average.

Many people in the village covet the position of village chief. Xujia Village has a large population, especially young and middle-aged people. It can be said to be a very respected village. Naturally, the treatment of the village chief is much better.

But the sons of the Xu family are more promising than each other. Both Xu's son and father have been to the battlefield, and they were not so tactless as to take anyone down.

"Jiaojiao has grown a lot taller. I still remember that when I left, you cried so hard and followed behind the car." Xu Shu joked.

Xu Jiaojiao could only agree awkwardly. She couldn't remember, but it could be said that Xu Jiaojiao was raised by Xu Shu since she was a child. Her parents were busy making money to support themselves, and her three older brothers coaxed their younger siblings one by one. Among them, the only girl, Xu Jiaojiao, was deeply loved.

"Brother, are you going back home for the New Year this year? Mom asked me to ask you." Xie Zhi broke the awkward situation.

"Yes, big brother, we all miss you so much. Mom sent you a lot of food because she was worried that you wouldn't eat well." Xu Jiaojiao also echoed

"Yes, the army has approved all of my home leave this year, a total of fifteen days, and I must go back." Xu Shu said happily.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the car was instantly ignited. It was still raining outside, and the water flowed down the car windows, leaving one water mark after another, but the people inside were extremely happy. Accompanied by this peaceful atmosphere, several people arrived at Xu Shu's home.

This house is located in the army and was allocated to them by the army. Xu Shu and several others who had returned from the battlefield got the best allocation, which is a three-bedroom apartment. In that era when living rooms were used as rooms and several people slept in one room, a three-bedroom apartment was considered a mansion.

Knowing that his sister was coming over, Xu Shu bought all kinds of girls' things overnight, including pink bed sheets and even a full-length mirror. Xu Jiaojiao couldn't wait to run to the mirror.

"Brother, you are so good to me." Xu Jiaojiao has been extremely lonely since she came to this era, but everyone in her family has given her infinite warmth.

Xu Shu looked at his sister with a bright face and couldn't help but touch her fluffy hair. "Brother also bought gifts for you and Xie Zhi. When you get married, I will definitely buy you a better one so that you, your second brother, can't compare to it."

"Brother, why are you saying all this? And when will you find me a sister-in-law?"

"It's still early, still early." He laughed.

Xu Jiaojiao stayed in the room alone. After Xie Zhi hung the clothes in the closet, he and Xu Shu went outside to take out the things in the suitcase and put them into the kitchen one by one.

There were bacon and sausages pickled by Xu's mother herself, as well as various herbs, which were perfect for making soup. There was also a pair of furry slippers in it.

She sewed it herself, after working on it for several nights. She originally wanted to make a pair of cloth shoes, but was afraid that her son would be laughed at, so she simply made a pair of slippers that he could wear at all times.

When Xu Shu saw the pair of tiger-head slippers, the tough guy like him, tears were hanging in the corners of his eyes and he cried uncontrollably. Since he left home, he only went back once in the past few years. His mother probably had a lot more white hair. And his grandparents were worried about him all day long. He was really unfilial.

"Brother, it has always been difficult to have both a small family and a big country. Besides, it's already amazing that you have achieved this. Just go back and visit more during the New Year." Xie Zhi comforted him patiently, with mixed feelings in his heart.

But all this could not affect the girl in the room. Xu Jiaojiao sat on the chair for a long time and casually opened a drawer, which was full of books and the girl's favorite accessories.

Various bows, pearl hair accessories, hair bands, hairpins and the like, all looked very expensive. Xu Jiaojiao gently stroked these things with her fingers and felt that the original owner was disappointing for not wanting these things. Little did she know that some people could not even pray for them.

He opened the wardrobe casually, and inside were all kinds of skirts, all of which had floral lace on the hems. At first glance, they were things men would buy. Xu Shu had asked Xie Zhi about the sizes of these skirts in advance, as well as the shoes.

How could he not love his sister after not seeing her for so many years? Strictly speaking, his sister was more like his daughter, seven or eight years younger than him. She grew up on Xu Shu's back. How could he not love her?

Xu Jiaojiao casually took out a yellow skirt. The hem and cuffs were decorated with lace. The dress was yellowish in color, with other colors. There was a V-shaped lace on the chest, which made her look like a beauty in a medieval oil painting.

Xu Jiaojiao was so happy that she looked at the clothes in front of the mirror again and again, with a happy face. She couldn't help feeling lucky that she had a brother.
