After a conversation, the relationship between the few people became much closer.

The other three also knew that Liu Jingxue was not a difficult person to get along with, so they gradually relaxed and were no longer so reserved.

Looking at the brand new military water bottle on the table, Zhang Pingan asked curiously, "Liu Zhiqing, is there anyone in your family in the army?"

Liu Jingxue put out this military water bottle with the intention of making her identity known, letting people know that she has a backer and so that they would not provoke her easily.

How to spread the news? The educated youth who went to the same place to spread the news would naturally be the best messengers.

She nodded. "Three generations of my family have been in the military, and my brothers are in the army now."

Hearing that Liu Jingxue came from a military family, they couldn't help but show respect.

Zhang Yingchun asked curiously, "Then why don't you join the army and go to the countryside as an educated youth?"

“My parents were both soldiers, and they died a few years ago, leaving me behind.

I am the youngest in my generation, and the others are all in the army. My grandparents would never agree to my joining the army again."

“My grandmother passed away some time ago, and I am the only one left at home.

The others were all in the army and were very busy with work, so they had no way of looking after me.

I can't go against my grandparents' wishes and join the army.

You all know what the situation is in the city now. If I, an orphan, stay there, I will definitely be targeted.

So I just signed up to go to the countryside.”

Zhang Yingxue apologized, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for bringing up your sad memories."

Liu Jingxue shook her head. "It's nothing. It's all over."

Chen Guoqing patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, since we are going to the same place to go to the countryside, we will help you in the future."

There are three generations of soldiers in her family, and all the relatives are in the army. This means that there must be elders in the family serving in the army, and their positions are not low, otherwise all the nephews and nephews in the family would not have joined the army except her.

You have to know that in this day and age, you can't become a soldier just because you want to.

If you get along well with her, maybe you can take the opportunity to get close to the people behind her.

Liu Jingxue couldn't say she had guessed his thoughts exactly, but she was pretty close.

She went to the countryside with a purpose. Although she couldn't say that she had no contact with other people, she certainly couldn't have too close contact with them, lest her secret be discovered.

She deliberately looked at the other person's body and said, "Help me, how can you help me?

Do you know how to do farm work?"

Chen Guoqing choked and said awkwardly, "Although we don't know how to do farm work, it shouldn't be difficult. After all, aren't those country folk doing it well?"

Liu Jingxue was a little speechless. "I hope that after you experience the hardship of farm work, you won't regret what you just said."

“As for helping me, that’s not necessary.

I'm worried that you won't be able to help me and may cause me a lot of trouble.

You should worry about yourselves and deal with the troubles that woman behind you may bring to you first." Liu Jingxue refused.

Zhang Yingxue covered her mouth and laughed, "Liu Zhiqing is right, there are differences between men and women, you should not get too close to us.

We girls can help each other and avoid gossip."

Zhang Ping'an saw his cousin return with failure. How could he not understand his cousin's feelings as he grew up with him?

What's more, he himself had the same idea.

Therefore, he tried to smooth things over for his cousin, "We are all educated youth who went to the same village, so of course we should stick together and help each other to avoid being bullied by the villagers."

Liu Jingxue did not comment, but did not object either.

Zhang Yingchun changed the subject, "I don't know what the countryside we're in is like, and whether the villagers are easy to get along with.

There was an elder sister who lived near our house. Less than two months after she went to the countryside, she wrote back saying that she had married a villager there.

Her family was well off, but because every household had to have someone go to the countryside, they were forced to let her go.

The original plan was to let her stay there for a year or so, and then find a way to get her back to the city.

But I didn't expect that she would get married less than two months after she went there, and she married a villager.

Her mother fainted on the spot after receiving the news, and scolded her for not being able to endure any hardship and not being able to hold on for half a year."

"When I came here, my mother told me that I was not allowed to date in the countryside, let alone with someone from the village.

If she knew, she would no longer acknowledge me as her daughter. She would even ask for leave to come and break my legs.”

Zhang Yingchun said proudly, "My dad said that he doesn't expect me to work in the countryside to support myself, and that they will send me money and things every month.

I just want to stay in the country."

Liu Jingxue sighed. Why did that girl suddenly get married? As someone who had read many novels about the period, she understood immediately that she must have been plotted against and had to get married.

Just like the original owner in the dream, how could she be willing to marry that man?

She is not a saint, and it is impossible for her to save everyone. But Zhang Yingchun in front of her, judging from the conversation during this period, is a good girl.

Liu Jingxue didn't mind giving her some friendly reminders.

"Why do you think your neighbor's sister suddenly got married?" Liu Jingxue asked.

"People say that it's hard to go to the countryside and do farm work. I guess she can't stand it, so she wants to get married so that she can have someone to help her and she doesn't have to do farm work," Zhang Yingchun replied.

“You also said that her family is well-off. I guess her family has the same plan for you as yours, and they didn’t expect her to do farm work to support herself.

Her family must have given her a lot of money when she went to the countryside, and she won’t last more than two months.”

Zhang Yingxue thought about the money she brought with her. Even if she just lay down every day and did nothing, she would be able to hold on for two to three years.

What's more, my parents said that they would send me money and things every month.

My neighbor's sister's family is better off than mine, and she is the only daughter in the family, so she is very much valued by me.

If her older brothers had not already started their own families and her younger brother was still young and in school, it would never have been her turn to go to the countryside.

Given her situation, the money she brought with her to the countryside was probably more than mine, so how could she not be able to last more than a year or two?

Zhang Yingchun was a little confused and asked Liu Jingxue, "Then why do you think she got married so soon?"

Liu Jingxue did not answer her directly, but asked, "Why do you think that girl just now would get involved with these two?"

Chen Guoqing and Zhang Pingan smiled bitterly. They were talking about someone else, why did it involve them now?

"I like them," Zhang Yingchun blurted out.

"Then why do you fancy them?"

"They are good-looking."

Well, it turns out this girl is obsessed with looks.

“Although they look decent, look at the male educated youth in this carriage, there are some who are better looking than them, so why don’t the girls bother them?

I think that girl didn’t know that she and you were going to the same village to work in the countryside before she came here.”

Zhang Yingchun shook her head. "I really didn't know it before. I only found out after I got here."

"Then why do you think she chose them among these good-looking male educated youth?" Liu Jingxue continued to ask.
