can find. Then we'll regroup."Ripple responded first:"Senior brother, I'm still in the same group as my little whirlwind.""I'm in a group with mountains and rivers.""Then, I’m in a group with Qiao, t...Three days later, the school's opening ceremony was held grandly. Especially the military training achievements display of the freshmen attracted a lot of praise, which helped them integrate into the school quickly.

On the first weekend of school, Lian Yi went back to visit her parents. Zhao Xinruo and Qian Luoxi were also from the city, so the three of them went together. Sun Guoguo and Li Xingyue were more downcast as they could only stay in the dormitory.

Although the two students from the city promised that next week, everyone in the dormitory would go to Changsha together, with the two of them acting as guides to visit famous attractions. This proposal was unanimously agreed upon by everyone in the dormitory, so when the five people parted ways, they were all very happy.

After taking the bus back to the family housing complex of the pharmaceutical factory, Lianyi ran into Old Xing downstairs. He was chatting with retired workers from the pharmaceutical factory.

"Dad, I'm back!"

Liàn yī smiled sweetly.

"Yo, are your military trainings over"

As soon as Old Man Xing saw that his own daughter had returned, he immediately smiled and greeted her.

"Well, it's been a week since we started classes. I've been busy reporting on military training results and haven't had time to come back. This weekend is my rest day, so I told the teacher about the situation and came back to see you and Mom."

Ripple walked past and helped Elder Xing, explaining.

"Don't worry, I and your mother are doing well. We have food and drink. When we have free time, Aunt will take us to the park. Your mother is now going shopping with your grandmother. She said that vegetables in the afternoon are cheaper."

Old Mr. Xing rambled on with his explanation.

After the two returned to their rented house, LianYi placed her belongings in the room that her in-laws had reserved for her and inquired about the state of the household.

"Dad, has the stuff from our hometown arrived yet"

"It's here, sent directly to the pharmaceutical factory. I had Guoqing write down Guan Da Jie’s son's name, that way your three brothers won't come looking for you."

Old Mr. Xing is now very wary of his three sons.

"Since your brother and they know that you and mother are staying here and not going back, didn't they say anything"

The ripples asked.

"They can say whatever they want, but let us take care of ourselves."

"Geez, they're really shameless. Not a word about sending you some retirement money"

"No, they still want to divide the old house. I said I want to live here, and if I don't have money, just sell the house."

Old Xing said straightforwardly.

Didn't they complain about you

Ripples asked curiously.

"What are you complaining about We've already split up. If you want the house, or alimony, they refuse to pay, so you just have to keep quiet."

Now, Old Xing is very open-minded and doesn't expect his son to support him in his old age. After coming here, he and his wife discovered the benefits of big cities. At least if they have a headache or fever, it's convenient to find a doctor. It's not that doctors in the county are bad, but some good medicine is only available in big cities.

Especially this pharmaceutical factory, such a large unit, has its own kindergarten, hospital, market and convenience store. It can be said to be both convenient and safe.

Adding to that, the kindness of the Huo family had them well cared for by their neighbors. Especially after their daughter got into university, studying at a military academy, everyone became even more polite towards the elderly couple. As for his life now, Old Xing was quite content, except for being a little too idle.

"How is their business in the county"

The ripples continued to ask.

"National Day celebrations are pretty good, at least better than farming."

Ripple nodded, after all, when it was fully open, more and more rural people would go out to work.

"Father, Mother hasn't returned yet, I have something to tell you."

Seeing that Xing's mother was not present, Lian Yi changed the subject.

"What's up What's going on"

"During our military training, the instructor discovered that I was strong and knew some martial arts, so he found me a job in labor study."

What kind of work

Old Xing's eyes widened in surprise.

"That's to help them catch the bad guys."

Even if she explained it in spy jargon, Old Xing probably wouldn't understand. So she just explained it in plain English.

"Stop the bad guys! This… this is definitely dangerous, with just your little bit of fighting skill, can you do it"

Xing Lao Tou frowned, apparently not optimistic about this job.

"Dad, I'm still a student and my priority is studying. Taking down bad guys is just something I do on the side. Besides, like you said, I'm a newbie with no experience. I won't take on any too dangerous missions; at most, I can just assist."

I didn't refuse. The main reason was that I thought this job could help me earn tuition, which would lessen the burden on you and mom. Plus, it was introduced by the drill instructor, who are all officers. They must be more reliable.

"There's also a bit of self-interest on my part. After all, we're outsiders here with no roots. When we graduate from the military academy, our job assignments will depend entirely on us. Now that I have this position, it looks good on my resume and allows me to get in touch with high-ranking officials ahead of time. It's like laying the groundwork for myself."

Rill understood Lao Xing's worry, but also knew that the old man cared more about her future, so she gave a detailed explanation.

"Oh! It's our fault as parents that we are only capable of farming and know nothing else. In the future, you will have to rely on yourself. No matter what you do, always put your safety first."

Mr. Xing let out a barely perceptible sigh, indicating his support for his daughter's decision.

"Father, rest assured! For your sake, I wouldn't put myself in danger easily."

Ripples immediately said, as for what to do then, we can only wait and see.

"Also, don't tell mother about this first. I'm afraid she'll worry too much. Later on, father will have to cooperate with me and say that I found a summer job."

The ripples added that she chose this time to confront Old Xing, precisely to get her father to help cover for her.

"I know, I understand. Your mother is a bit too cautious. It's really not suitable for her to know about this."

Just as the two of them finished talking, Xing's mother came back carrying a basket of vegetables. Seeing her daughter return, she immediately went forward to greet her with concern and kept saying that Lianyi had lost weight, full of a mother's love.

After a beautiful weekend, Lian Yi went back to school to continue her studies.

It was another weekend, and Ripples was supposed to go shopping with her roommates, but their homeroom teacher came looking for her.

"Xíng Liányī, I just received a call, your mother was robbed while buying groceries and is now in the hospital. Please go there as soon as possible."

Liàn Yī listened, her face turning cold. She immediately asked:

"Teacher, where is my mother in the hospital Is she seriously injured"

"The injury shouldn't be serious, just a shock. You better go and comfort your mother's emotions. The school happens to have a car going that way, I've already said hello, it will take you there now."

Thank you, teacher!

Liàn Yī's heart, which had been heavy with worry, eased slightly. She turned to look at her roommates before she could even speak, and Zhào Xīnruo chimed in:

"Lian Yi Jie, you should go to the hospital first and check the situation. If everything is alright, just give us a message. If you need any help, just let us know. My family lives in this city, so my parents should be able to help out."

"Yeah, me too. Just contact us if you need anything."

Qian Luo Xi immediately added, she still owed Lian Yi a favor for the military training thing!

"Thank you all, I'm leaving first. If I need help, I definitely won't be polite to you."

After finishing his statement, he followed the master to the school gate.

When Liang Ri saw familiar faces on the military jeep, he frowned and said:

It is you.e else frequently came in and out of her apartment. As a result, the older sister who rented the house immediately said seriously:"Both teachers, you can't slander your own students. That little Luo l...
