Chapter 14
After receiving the food, Lan Xiyue and the other two returned to the courtyard where they rented a house. When they returned, they saw Shen Baoguo repairing the roof, so they hurried over to help, holding the ladder and passing the tiles. Only about 20 tiles were broken, and they were fixed in a short time.
Lan Xiyue took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from a package and gave them to Shen Baoguo, and said to him politely: "Brother Baoguo, you see we don't even have saliva to drool over, take these candies back to sweeten your mouth."
Shen Baoguo took the candy and said, "Thank you, Lan Zhiqing."
After seeing Shen Baoguo off, the three of them each chose a room and began to clean it. Everyone here slept on a heated kang, and the winter was long and the weather was very cold, so they all relied on heating the kang to survive the winter.
I cleaned the room and saw that it was quite clean inside. There was nothing inside except the kang. I had to ask if there was anyone who could make furniture.
Lan Xiyue carried a package out of the room and walked towards the kitchen. Ji Xinyue and the others had also finished cleaning and came out. Seeing Lan Xiyue carrying a large package, they went over to help.
Liu Chaoyang asked: "Lan Zhiqing, what are you doing?"
Lan Xiyue smiled and said, "These are pots, pans, and utensils for the kitchen. I bought them all in Beijing and mailed them over."
Ji Xinyue said excitedly: "Sister Lan, you are so awesome. You even prepared the kitchen supplies."
"It's not that I'm great, it's that I didn't plan to eat from the same pot with them from the beginning. People in the educated youth camp come from all over the world, and their tastes vary from region to region. For example, some people can eat chili peppers while others can't. There will definitely be conflicts over time. There's no need to accommodate others. It's not like we don't have the conditions. What do you think?"
Liu Chaoyang said embarrassedly: "My mother told me not to be too high-profile, for fear of being plotted against."
"Your mother is right. She is teaching you to protect yourself. But I am a martial artist and I am not afraid of these things, so I am less cautious. You'd better be careful in your daily life. There are bad people out there." Lan Xiyue explained.
Ji Xinyue said to Liu Zhaoyang: "How about you learn some Kung Fu from us?"
Liu Chaoyang looked at Ji Xinyue in astonishment, "Could it be that Ji Zhiqing also practices martial arts?"
Ji Xinyue said: "Yes, my grandfather taught me martial arts since I was a child. He said that girls should learn to protect themselves. My grandfather also went to the battlefield before, but he was injured and retired. My father and two brothers all learned martial arts from my grandfather, but only my eldest brother went to the army. My father is the director of the meat processing factory, and my second brother also works in the meat processing factory. Originally, I didn't have to go to the countryside, but some people couldn't bear to see others live well, and insisted that one of the three children in our family must go to the countryside."
As he said this, he pouted and said, "My second brother wanted me to go to work while he went to the countryside, but he already had a girlfriend. I didn't want to delay him, so I secretly signed up to go to the countryside without telling them."
Liu Chaoyang didn't know what to say at this moment. "My situation is similar to yours. My father is the director of a textile factory, and my mother and brother are both regular workers. It was also because of jealousy that I had to go to the countryside. That's why my mother told me to keep a low profile, fearing that I would be schemed against in a place where I am unfamiliar with."
After saying that, they both looked at Lan Xiyue. Lan Xiyue smiled bitterly, "I'm not their biological child. I originally passed the exam and got a job as a clerk in the textile factory office, but my adoptive parents asked me to go to the countryside to replace their biological son, so I'm here. But I cut off ties with their family before coming here, so this job is to repay their kindness in raising me. I learned this skill from my master, and he loves me like his own child."
Lan Xiyue said what she had prepared. She couldn't tell them that she was not from this world. It was just right to invent a master who was a master. This way, her cultivation would have a source. As for the master, who knows where he is?
"Since we live in the same yard, Chaoyang should join us for morning exercises every day. Even if we can't become a master, at least we can protect ourselves. What do you think, Chaoyang?" Lan Xiyue looked at Liu Chaoyang and asked.
Liu Chaoyang nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely work hard."
Ji Xinyue said happily: "Then the three of us will be friends from now on, cheer each other on!"
Lan Xiyue and Liu Chaoyang looked at each other and smiled: "Okay"
