Travel through different worlds and experience different lives

Everyone laughed when they heard this and said: This is a good thing, so that no one will always think that learning is so easy.

Aunt Lin asked curiously: Where does Ling Xue live? What kind of house did she buy?

Zhao Zhilan smiled and said: It’s about half the size of our house. This was the house she had liked before, but she felt it was too big for one person, so she found a smaller one to buy.

If she hadn't found a smaller set, she would have bought this one.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Lin said: Even if it is half the size of this, it would still be too spacious for her to live alone.

Lin Dayou nodded and said: Yes, she said there is no smaller one, so she could only buy that one. A house like this can’t be too small, and she also likes this kind of courtyard house, otherwise she would have bought an apartment.

But she said the building was too messy. There were all kinds of people, so it was better to live in a private house.

Zhao Qingshan nodded and said: That's right, it's more comfortable to have your own house and yard, an apartment building is really not that good.

She doesn't even have a dog to guard the house?

Lin Dayou said: She said that sometimes she had something to do and it was inconvenient to take care of it, so she didn’t buy it. But when I asked her why, she didn’t say. It must be inconvenient to say.

Zhao Zhilan thought for a moment after hearing this and said: She is applying to a military academy, so she won't be joining the army, right?

After hearing what Zhao Qingshan said, everyone thought about it and said: It is very likely that she has been a soldier for a long time, otherwise, as a girl who has lived in the village since she was a child, it is impossible that she has hardly lived at home in the past year.

As long as you are already a soldier, you may have joined the army last year.

I came back because of the college entrance examination, otherwise I would still be in the army.

Lin Tianyou was curious when he heard this: "Isn't there an age limit for joining the army? Ling Xue seemed to be only fifteen years old last year."

Lin Qingshan smiled and said: If he was specially recruited, it doesn’t matter if he is young. He should have gone to the military academy for training last year.

After hearing this, no one talked about this topic anymore. After all, if she was specially recruited, she must have some ability, otherwise the army would not have specially recruited a rural girl.

Aunt Lin said: Take us to see the girl these days and get to know her.

Zhao Zhilan smiled and said: After you get familiar with each other, Sister Ling Xue will come over. She goes to school every day these days and is not at home during the day.

Let her come over once you are familiar with the neighborhood.

We have her home phone number, so we can just call her when the time comes.

By the way, we also have a telephone at home, and the phone number is right next to it.

There was a notebook on it with Ling Xue's home phone number written on it.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianyou said happily: Sister-in-law, where is it? Let me see.

I haven't even touched the phone yet.

Zhao Zhilan smiled and said: It's on the shelf behind you, covered with a handkerchief.

Everyone got up to take a look. Lin Dayou taught them how to make a call. Of course, they could only call Ling Xue's home. There was no one at Ling Xue's home. So they were called over and over again by Lin Dayou's family.

Tell my parents and younger brother that when the phone has been ringing for about a minute and there is a beep, it means the call is not picked up. If we want to continue calling, we have to press the hang up button first.

Then press the replay button again and you will hear a long tone, which means the call is connected again.

After everyone tried it, they all remembered it.

There is no place to make phone calls now, so no one is standing here playing with their phones anymore. Although it is new, everyone can hold back.

A week passed in the blink of an eye. It was the weekend, and Ling Xue came to Lin Dayou's house with some fruits. After all, this family was very nice and well-known in the village.

Now that Lin Qingshan and his wife have arrived, she has to come and take a look.

If I wasn't at home, everything would be fine.

The person who opened the door was Lin Tianyou. When he saw a beautiful girl outside, he didn't recognize her at first.

Ling Xue still smiled and said: Hello, Brother Tianyou.

Lin Tianyou’s eyes widened in shock when he heard this and said: Ling, Ling Xue?

Ling Xue nodded and said: It's only been a short time, and you don't recognize Brother Tianyou anymore?

Lin Tianyou opened his mouth wide when he heard this, and only came to his senses when Lin Qingshan came into the room and asked who it was.

Let Ling Xue into the house quickly.

After Ling Xue entered the house, she called out, "Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin." The old couple were also stunned when they saw Ling Xue's appearance.

The change is too big. Now when she goes out, you can't tell that she is from the countryside. But this girl didn't look like a country girl even when she was in the village.

Lin Qingshan came back to his senses first and said with a smile: Girl, you have changed so much that even Uncle Lin can’t recognize you.

It's only been more than a year since I last saw you, and you've already grown into a big girl.

Yes, Ling Xue has developed very well, much better than the average sixteen-year-old girl.

She is tall, beautiful, and dresses elegantly and appropriately.

Ling Xue smiled and nodded, saying: They say girls change a lot when they grow up, so shouldn't I change for the better quickly?

Upon hearing this, Aunt Lin burst into laughter and said: You have really changed so much that I wouldn't even dare to recognize you if I saw you on the street.

Ling Xue smiled and said: It’s good that I know Aunt Lin. I won’t meet her on the street without saying hello.

After everyone sat down, Lin Qingshan said with a smile: Uncle hasn't thanked you yet for helping your brother Dayou.

Ling Xue shook her head and said: This is not a big deal, it's just a matter of saying a word. Besides, Brother Dayou and sister-in-law are also capable. Otherwise, even if I give them directions, they may not have the courage to do it.

Lin Qingshan shook his head and said: No matter what, thank you uncle.

Many things are easier said than done, but that's also because of you. Otherwise, Brother Dayou, even if we go there, we'll have to explore for a long time.

No matter where you are, you will be bullied if you are unfamiliar with the place. Only after a long time and you have gained experience can you become more successful.

Aunt Lin said: Tianyou, go buy two chickens. You can buy the other vegetables yourself.

Ling Xue was about to stop him when she heard that, but she saw Tianyou running out directly.

She just wanted to go to the library to read later, but since she had already stayed, it would be bad not to eat here.

After all, everyone has enough money, so there is no need to be polite.

Ling Xue smiled and nodded, saying: Thank you, auntie, I won’t be polite then.

Aunt Lin smiled and said: There's no need to be polite when you come to our house.

Come anytime you want to eat in the future, and your aunt will prepare delicious food for you.

After everyone chatted for a while, Lin Qingshan couldn't help but ask: Girl, are you a soldier now?

Ling Xue thought about it and nodded and admitted: Yes.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingshan had an expression of "as expected", which showed that he had already suspected that he was a soldier.

After all, he is not at home as an adult, and he may have gone to the army for training, which is something everyone can think of.

Lin Qingshan did not continue asking. After all, there were many things in the army that were difficult to ask about.

We felt relieved knowing that the girl had gone to join the army. After all, if she is an adult and not at home, she should not do bad things. Although everyone did not believe that the girl would do bad things, it was still better to ask clearly.

Since the girl said she was going to join the army, there is nothing to worry about.

Aunt Lin said happily: It's good to be a soldier, it's good to be a soldier, girl, you have a bright future, your aunt and uncle are happy for you.

Ling Xue nodded and said: Don't worry, uncle and aunt, you all know what kind of person I am. I will never do anything bad.

You can rest assured.

Aunt Lin smiled and nodded, saying: We are all relieved, and we know that you will not learn bad things. We just need to ask clearly so that we can feel at ease.

By the way, girl, do you think Tianyou should sign up to join the army?

After hearing this, Ling Xue thought about it and nodded: "When Brother Tianyou graduates, you can join the army. Regardless of whether you can stay in the army or not, being a soldier will be beneficial for your future."

Even if you have retired, you are still a soldier.

No matter what you do in the future, you will receive many preferential treatments.

If you stay in the army, you may become a company commander or battalion commander, which requires qualifications.

Moreover, if Brother Tianyou graduated from university, he would have a high level of education, which would give him a greater chance of being retained by the army.

After hearing this, everyone thought about it and nodded: Okay, let him join the army when the time comes.

Ling Xue nodded and said: Whether he stays in the army or not, it will be beneficial to Brother Tianyou in the future.

When Brother Dayou and his wife start their business, it will be much more convenient to have a soldier at home.

After all, he will be considered a military dependent by then. Although he is a brother and not as strong as his parents, if something happens to Brother Dayou, can his younger brother not help?

So naturally there will be many benefits.

Even after retiring from the army, it would be nice to find a job as a police officer.

Lin Qingshan smiled and said: It's not that easy. Even if you retire from the army, there may not be so many vacancies.

After all, nowadays, each job is dedicated to their own job.

Ling Xue smiled and said: This is all many years later. What we are saying is that even if we retire, how do we know that Brother Tianyou will not stay in the army?

What if? Well, we don't have to think of the worst, after all, the chances of this happening are 50-50.

Lin Qingshan nodded and said: That's right, it will take two days for him to join the army.

Whether you can stay or retire by then will be many years later. No matter what you do by then, the probability is 50-50.

It’s a bit early to think about these things now. It would be nice if he could just do nothing and help his brother with his business when the time comes.

Ling Xue nodded and said: That's right, there's no need to think too much about anything, just do your job well when Brother Tianyou joins the army.

Besides, even if he retires, his family will not lack food. Moreover, there is still a chance that he will be assigned a job even after he retires. It is really too early to think about these things now.

After Tianyou came back from shopping, Aunt Lin went to cook and didn't let Ling Xue help.

Even Zhao Zhilan was not allowed to enter the kitchen, so everyone just sat in the living room and chatted.

Tianyou asked curiously: Sister Lingxue, do you think I can skip a grade?

Now I can keep up with the studies and can teach myself the advanced courses so that I can graduate earlier.

Ling Xue nodded and said: If you want to study by yourself, that's fine, as long as you can keep up. You can study by yourself when you come back. I will get my notes for you when I get back.

By then, even if you have memorized all my notes, you will have no problem entering the freshman year directly.
