Ji Qingyun blushed.

She lowered her head. The courage she had mustered vanished into thin air the moment she saw Li Yugeng.

"What is it?" Li YuGeng frowned as he looked at the stranger in front of him who had interrupted his bath.

"Student Li, I-I just wanted to ask."

Ji Qingyun became even more nervous as if she could tell that his tone was not friendly. She started to stutter, "You, do you have time …"

"No!"

Ji Qingyun hadn't expected that he would reject her before she could finish. Ye Zichen couldn't help but open his eyes wide and look at him in shock.

Li Yugeng didn't like the look of others. He frowned and endured his last bit of patience. "Is there anything else?"

He was like an iceberg, exuding a signal that no one was allowed to approach him.

Ji Qingyun shrank her neck and said in a low voice, "No more."

Just as he finished speaking, the door slammed shut.

She felt wronged. She wanted to cry, but she didn't dare to cry. She could only turn around and walk out with her head lowered.

"Ji Qingyun." "Are you all right?"

"I'm fine." She shook her head. "I'm just feeling a bit sad. I want to rest for a bit."

"Don't be sad." Li Li patted her on the shoulder. "Why don't you sleep a little more tomorrow morning? I'll help you with the farming."

"How can I be embarrassed?" Ji Qingyun shook her head. "I think I'll go there myself."

"Aren't we alumni?" Li Li said generously, "Right now, we have three boys and two girls on our side. As the only two girls who came from the same university, we need to unite even more. "Ji Qingyun, if you have time in the future, just tell me directly. We want to help each other."

Ji Qingyun was touched when she heard that. "Li Li, thank you!"

She took the initiative to ask for this trip to the countryside. Before she left, her mother specially investigated the political backgrounds of her classmates.

In the end, her mother frowned and told her that of the three boys that she had been with this year, one was Peking University and the other two were from Polytechnic University. Their family background was clean and their character was not bad.

Ji Qingyun was a student of the capital, and Li Li came from Yun Gui. They didn't have any interactions before, so she didn't know much about it.

His mother said that this Li Li seemed to only have one father. His mother had died early, and in school, he seemed to have good relations with his male classmates. However, none of his female classmates liked her.

There must be a demon in the anomaly.

Therefore, ever since Ji Qingyun had arrived, she had always kept her distance from Li Li. However, this time, she discovered that Li Li wasn't as bad as she thought she was. On the contrary, she was very warm-hearted.

Ji Qingyun decided to befriend this girl.

Originally, there were only two girls here, and coincidentally, they came from the same school, so it was easy for them to have a common topic.

She had a favorable impression of Li Li and immediately invited her over. "It's alright. When you wake up tomorrow morning, just call me. We'll have breakfast together and then we'll go to work together."

She had just gone to find Li Yugeng and then applied for sick leave, afraid that someone would think too much.

Li Li was very happy, she only felt that Ji Qingyun was useless, so she settled the matter so easily. Li Li Li was very happy, and she only felt that Ji Qingyun was useless, so she did it so simply.

"Right."

Cao Xiaolian was drawing in the room, but the noise was too loud. She put down her pen and said, "Can you be a little quieter?"

"No way!"

Cao Xiaoxia bluntly refused and then smiled, "Sis, I am just too excited. Tell me, how did you become so talented? How did I get such a great older sister?"

She held her hands tightly in front of her chest, blinking her starry eyes as she looked at Cao Xiaoling expectantly.

Looking at her sister's funny look, she laughed out loud. "Why do I feel a chill down my spine when you're like this?"

"Sis …" Cao Xiaoxia sat down next to her sister and shook her arm, "You're the best sister in the world. I like you the most. Really, I feel like I can be your sister. That was my previous life, my previous life, my previous life."

"Don't, please don't." Cao Xiaoling waved her hand. "Tell me your conditions first. Let me see if I can be such a good sister."

"Heh heh." Seeing that she had been exposed, Cao Xiaoxia was not embarrassed. In any case, she could only discuss this matter with her sister.

"Then I've said it, I've said it, don't you dare scold me."

"Speak!"

Cao Xiaoxia suddenly sat down and said seriously, "Sis, I don't want to study anymore."

Cao Xiaolian stopped writing.

She looked up at her sister's grave face and knew she wasn't joking.

"You must be joking." She said doubtfully, "But you don't have to joke so much. It's fine with me. I'm afraid that my mom will break your legs if she finds out."

"Sister ~" Cao Xiaoxia saw that her sister didn't believe her. She was really worried, so she went over to hug her and said seriously, "I'm serious. I really don't want to study anymore."

"Why?!" Cao Xiaolian put down her pen and said seriously, "Your grades have always been the highest among your students. Your teacher said that you will get into a high school, but there won't be any problems."

"I don't want to go to high school."

Seeing that she was serious, Cao Xiaolian became really anxious, "Sister, let me tell you, you really don't have to worry about money. You see, I can make money now, I can pay for your tuition, buy your clothes, and later I will also make money to buy you a big house to stay in town. Just focus on studying and don't say anything that will hurt Mom's heart, okay? "

Cao Xiaoxia was getting anxious, "Sis, I'm only in junior high. There are still three years left in junior high and three years in senior high. If I were to enter university, I would have to spend four more years in it."

"I'm willing to let you bite me." In her previous life, she had never taken care of this little sister, and because of Wang Ziwen's relationship, she had quarreled with her mother and little sister. In the end, after her mother died, her little sister had directly left the country.

The two sisters were once so good, but because they were infatuated with a scum of a man, they gave up their sisterhood just like that.

Moreover, she didn't fulfill any of her older sister's duties and responsibilities. Towards this younger sister, she owed even more than she owed her mother.

"But I don't want to!"

Cao Xiao Xia said loudly, "Sis, do you know how uncomfortable it is for me to see you together with Wang Ziwen? I know that he can give you money and food, but you choose to stay with him …"

Together, you might not like him too much, but he can bring improvements to our family. "

Cao Xiaolian felt a bit uncomfortable when Lou Cheng mentioned this. "Didn't you say you wouldn't mention him in the future? Why did you mention it now?"

"Because this will forever be a knot in my heart!"

Cao Xiaoxia continued, "Ever since then, I've secretly vowed to myself that I will not drag you down."

"Family? What family are you talking about? Xiao Xia, if you really think I'm your big sister, then just honestly finish the book." Cao Xiaolian said to her sister for the first time, "I was wrong in the past, I should have stayed with him without thinking. But now you see, I am making money on my own, so there is no problem in raising this family."

"Sis!" Cao Xiaoxia also cried, tears welling up in her eyes. "Every time I see you here, changing your clothes like this, do you know how uncomfortable I feel? This thing is not a long-term job. It is not stable at all. I don't want her to work all day for me, and I don't want her to be tired. "Sis, I can't help our family. Unlike you, who can contribute to our family, I can at least support myself and reduce the burden on our family."

"You can tell Mom this, see if she's hurt or not." Cao Xiaolian was also angry. She had known that her sister was stubborn in the past, but she had never expected that a twelve-year-old child would have such an idea. "Who is it for? Isn't it for the two of us? I'm obedient, I work at home, and I earn this money. You're obedient too, can't you just study properly? "If you don't study anymore, she won't be happy even if you give her a mountain of gold and silver."

Cao Xiaoxia saw that she could not get back at her sister, so she decided to play her card straight away. "Sis, it's too late anyway. I will be leaving in a week."

"Where are you going!" Cao Xiaolian was shocked, "Xia Xia, why don't you listen to my advice?"

"I want to join the army!"

Cao Xiaoxia directly stated her decision, "The army came to the county to take the examination in March. I went too. Half a month ago, I informed them that I had passed the exam. Next week, I can report to the army."

If it was an ordinary family, they would definitely be wild with joy at the news.

After all, in this era, joining the army was something to be proud of. Cao Xiaolan, on the other hand, did not want her younger sister to leave her side. She was only 12 years old.

To throw away the army at such a young age, who knew how much suffering he would have to endure?

"I don't agree!"

Cao Xiaoxia did not expect her sister to say that and became anxious, "Sister! "How many people want this opportunity, yet don't want it?"

"Others are others, I don't care. You are my sister, so I have to care about your matters." Cao Xiaoling said, "Anyways, I don't agree. Xiaoyang, go and tell them tomorrow that you don't want to go!"

What a joke. It wasn't easy for her to be reborn and she was prepared to make up for her family. With her sister gone, how could she meet her again?

Although Cao Xiaolian had never been in the army before, she had also come into contact with members of the army. Even if you reached the leadership level, you would still be restricted by many rules and regulations, not to mention the fact that you had just joined the army. She didn't want her sister to suffer.

Besides, ten years from now, the army would be laid off in large numbers, and the system would be changed. Being a soldier wouldn't be as popular as it was now. If his sister was a good student, she could go to a first-rate university. When the time came, she could use the knowledge from her past life to help her choose a good major, which was not much better than going to the military.

"Sis!" Cao Xiaoxia turned around angrily, "I won't tell you anymore. I'll tell my mom tomorrow. Mom will definitely agree."

Although Mother Cao didn't want to part with her little daughter, she would definitely let her daughter join the army.

After all, the word 'army' was equivalent to an iron rice bowl. It was an honor to have a soldier in a village. The entire village was proud to have such a soldier, not to mention the very few female soldiers that were recruited.

Seeing that her sister was adamant on not eating, Cao Xiaoling began to coax her, "Xia Xia, have you ever thought that if you really go, you won't be able to see us for years?"
