Shu Rao almost carried it in one breath. Sure enough, men's heads are different. I guess Lou Yi thought the same, but she couldn't accept it. She absolutely couldn't accept it! No wonder the clerk at the time had such a cold look on her face.

The devil also muttered that it wasn't like they couldn't afford it, but he was right, she really couldn't afford it! It's more than 7,000 yuan, which is almost as much as Shu Jing's tuition for one year! No, no, no, no

Take it and return it quickly!

"Fortunately, the tag hasn't been removed yet..." As soon as she finished speaking, she was stunned. When she lowered her head, she saw Sisi holding the tag of her clothes in her little hand, oh my god, when did she get it off?

"Godmother... Piao Piao..." Sisi praised the clothes with a smile, threw away the tag, picked up the clothes and pointed directly at Shu Rao's body.

The corner of Shu Rao's mouth twitched. She used to think Sisi was a cute little angel, but now she suddenly felt that compared to the little devil, this little girl was completely worse!

"Godmother?" Sisi's eyes moved, her little face was full of confusion, as if she didn't quite understand why her godmother looked unhappy, as if she wanted to laugh, but also wanted to cry?

Shu Rao touched the little girl's furry little head, wanting to ravage her hard, but she couldn't do it, and said in a dumbfounded voice, "Sisi, you are really my little sweetheart!"

Not only that, it also hurts my lungs!

Sisi blinked, her dark eyes rolled around in circles, and she smiled silly, innocently and coquettishly.

Shu Rao was on the verge of tears. It cost more than 7,000 yuan. How many instant noodles would she have to eat to save the money?

Shu Jing didn't know what to say, but he felt deep self-blame in his heart. Although clothes worth more than 7,000 yuan were expensive, in fact, if his sister didn't have to support him to study, he could have lived a better life. When she was in high school

After graduation, I could have gone to college, but I gave it up because their family couldn't afford two people to study. After graduating from high school, my sister left her hometown and went to work everywhere. After changing countless jobs, she finally found a job in a university.

The cake shop has stabilized. She has been making pastry with her grandma since she was a child, so she is quite good at making cakes. However, because she works for people and can only earn a little handicraft money, she later gave up and took the exam instead.

Stewardess, the income of a stewardess is relatively high, but the hard work is relatively more. In the first three months of training, she lost more than ten pounds. In the first half year of being on the plane, she would get airsick every time and vomited...

...The hardships of these years were unbearable to look back on. Even a few days ago, she was not willing to buy herself a dress for Christmas, but bought him a notebook. He really hated himself. How long would he drag his sister down?

"Sister...I want to discuss something with you."

"What?"

"A few days ago, troops came to our school to recruit soldiers...I think..."

"You want to join the army?" Shu Rao frowned suddenly.

Shu Jing nodded, and Shu Rao immediately changed his face. Seeing that she was about to get angry, Shu Jing quickly said soothingly, "Sister, calm down first! You listen to me first... This is not the ordinary conscription you imagined, they are recruiting for technical aspects.

Yes! I saw the announcement. This is a nationwide recruitment, but they only recruit people from universities, specifically selecting computer talents. Some of them go to Peking University, Beihang University, Harbin Institute of Technology... and our school, a total of ten universities.

, the army needs special talents, and has designated several majors, and they must be from universities ranked among the top ten in the country for their majors. I just fit in, so I thought... I want to sign up. If I pass the review, I can go to the army!

"

"What happens after you go there? Do you struggle every day? Charge into battle with a gun?"

"No, sister! I am not joining the special forces. They are recruiting technical personnel! After the people who are recruited arrive in the army, they will be taught jointly by professors from the National Defense University and instructors from the army. They are the best in the country.

It is a gathering place for talents. Not only will I not fall behind in my cultural classes, but I will also learn more and better than in school! And... and..."

"And can you earn subsidies?" Shu Rao asked sharply.

"..." Shu Jing paused, then nodded cautiously, "Yes, there are all kinds of benefits."

Shu Rao couldn't help but stare, "Is this what you came for?"

"No, sister!" Shu Jing shook his head quickly and said hurriedly, "I think this kind of opportunity is rare. The army is a place to train people, and there is a lot of room for development. It's not enough for others to want to go.

Since I meet the requirements and can apply, why not give it a try? If I really pass, I will be like a national defense student!"

"so what?"

"Then...you don't have to worry about my tuition fees anymore, and you don't have to work so hard."

Shu Rao was pleased and angry at the same time, and objected directly, "I don't have to work hard! You should study hard for me, and don't think nonsense!"

"Sister..." Shu Jing continued to lobby and said, "Sister, this is really a good opportunity. If I can be selected, I will be specially trained! In the future, I can also go to the National Defense University for further studies, postgraduate entrance examinations and so on.

No problem, and from now on I will be a technical officer! Technical! Technical! Do you understand?"

Shu Jing kept emphasizing on technology and so on. Shu Rao understood a little bit. If it was really what he said, then this was indeed a good thing, but she was still worried. Who knew if he was deceiving her?

"When does registration end?"

"By the middle of the month."

Shu Rao counted the days, and there was still some time. She asked Xingchen to ask Lou Xi first before talking!

"Sister, I will never lie to you. After joining the army, I can learn more and better things, really!" Shu Jing emphasized again.

"Okay, I get it! You don't have to worry about this anymore. Go back and study hard for me. I will let you know when I have the news!" Shu Rao acted like a parent.

Shu Jing rubbed his nose and had no choice but to shut up. It seemed that he would have to find Sister Xingchen again to intercede.

At this moment, Ye Xingchen happened to come back, and so did the little devil.

Shu Rao suddenly had a headache. When she saw the little devil, she thought of the clothes that cost more than 7,000 yuan. She had a good sense and picked such expensive clothes at a glance!

"Niu'er, what's wrong with you?" The little devil was very good at observing people's emotions. When he saw something was wrong with Shu Rao's expression, he immediately asked with concern.

Shu Rao was filled with hatred, but there was nothing he could do. The little devil had no idea how much the clothes cost, and he was as innocent as a little angel!

I looked at Sisi and then at the little devil. This little angel, this little devil...they were killing her!

However, the two children still looked innocent, which really made her love and hate them at the same time!

"Nothing." She said weakly.

Ye Xingchen frowned subconsciously, Rao Rao seemed to have something wrong!

Shu Rao shook his head, took another deep breath, and then kept calm, saying, "Let's talk about it later!"

He turned to look at Shu Jing with a warning look.

Under pressure, Shu Jing had no choice but to say goodbye dejectedly, "Sister, Sister Xingchen, I'll go back to school first!"

"Uncle, goodbye!" the little devil said very familiarly and waved his little hand.

Shu Rao couldn't help but frown, why did it feel so awkward? But in terms of seniority, it seemed right to call him uncle.

After Shu Jing left, Shu Rao pulled Ye Xingchen and said, "Xingchen, I want to ask you for a favor!"

Ye Xingchen couldn't help but sigh, "What else can we say about whether to invite or not? Rao Rao, if you have something to say, just say it!"

Shu Rao bit her lip and said angrily, "If you could directly understand the situation, I wouldn't be so polite, but you have to ask Lou Xi about this..."

"Ask Lou Xi?"

Shu Rao told Shu Jing about enlisting in the army, and also expressed his thoughts. He wanted to ask Lou Xi about the situation first. Although he was not in charge of recruiting soldiers, he would definitely know some information.

After Ye Xingchen heard this, he immediately called Lou Xi, but he had already turned off his phone. He must have returned to the army.

"Rao Rao... Lou Xi is going to undergo a one-month closed training, and we can't contact him for the time being..."

Shu Rao sighed, what a coincidence!

Ye Xingchen was also disappointed and also sighed lightly.

"Girl, little aunt, don't sigh! You can ask my dad about this, he must know the situation!" the little devil suddenly said.

"Yes, you can ask Lou Yi!" Ye Xingchen also agreed.

Shu Rao was a little hesitant. How could she have the nerve to talk to him now? She gave him a thousand yuan! She might as well not give it! It was really embarrassing!

Ye Xingchen didn't know about the clothes yet, and thought that Shu Rao was too embarrassed to ask for help, so he said generously, "Rao Rao, this matter about Shu Jing is a big deal, it is related to his future. If you are too embarrassed to ask, I will

Go ask Lou Yi for you, I have his phone number!"

Shu Rao intuitively agreed, but she hesitated the next second. She would have to face him sooner or later, and she would definitely have to pay back the money!

"No, Xingchen, I'd better tell him myself. Just give me your number." She said bravely.

"Okay, you ask first." Ye Xingchen took out his mobile phone and flipped through Lou Yi's number. Before he could find out, the little devil chirped, "187xxxxx012!"

Shu Rao recited it silently and saved it in her mobile phone, but did not call immediately because she had not thought of her words yet. Anyway, there was still some time before the registration was over, so she should be mentally prepared before talking!

◎◎◎

The next day, the New Year's Day holiday officially ended and everything returned to normal. Lou Xi started closed training in the army, and Ye Xingchen also started to go to work. Before going out, she drew a circle on her calendar, the distance between which she could see him next time.

There are still thirty days.

Shu Rao is temporarily unemployed and has nothing to do at home. Although this is the first time she has lost her job in so many years, she does not feel sad staying at home because she has two children accompanying her, so she is not lonely at all.

She took care of Sisi during the day. The little girl was very obedient. After Xingchen helped her wash her face and hands in the morning, she ate breakfast obediently. After Xingchen went to work, the little girl played with building blocks for a while, flipped through fairy tale books, and basked in the sun.

She is so well-behaved. The little devil also plays with her. Although the little devil thinks playing with building blocks and telling fairy tales is stupid, he still plays with Sisi, acting like a little sister. The two

The two children don't quarrel and get along very harmoniously.

At noon, she cooked some lunch and the three of them had a good meal. Xingchen didn't go home at noon, but would make a phone call. Sisi held her cell phone and babbling non-stop, and then climbed into bed obediently.

She hugged the little bear and took a nap, and she slept for an hour or two at a time. She was so good. The little devil would also lie down and take a nap, but never succeeded. Whenever Sisi fell asleep, she would get up secretly and go downstairs.

It will bounce around for a while, but it will not go far. It will come back after a while of activity.

In the evening, Xingchen came back from get off work and the house became more lively. They went shopping together and cooked together when they came back. The two children ate happily. Then they washed the dishes and cleaned together. After everything was done, the four of them We went downstairs for a walk together. Sisi was so cute and cute that the residents in the community couldn't help but come up to tease her. The little devil also quickly established friendship with the children in the community and became crazy.

When the sky is full of stars and moon, they go home, go upstairs and watch TV for a while, eat some fruit, then take turns to wash up and have a good night's sleep.

Days like this were very leisurely and passed peacefully day after day. Ye Xingchen drew more and more circles on the calendar and had more and more expectations.
