Chapter 2 The Portal of Veterans

Li Nishun nodded affirmatively. Er Da raised him, and no matter what happened, she could not ruin Shuang Xi's work. That was what Er Da left to Shuang Xi.

"You just believe her? My dear, you always cry when you're at home, and you're a coward. If it were me, a little bitch like me would have been honest a long time ago, and we're not our biological children. Why are you so nice to her?"

After the two sisters came out, Tiezhu's mother resented her sister angrily.

Liu Erniang looked down on this eldest sister because she had all her bad things written on her face. Sometimes she had to do things in a roundabout way so that she could not only succeed but also keep a good reputation.

However, she still had to use this sister to beat Li Sanni, and someone still had to tell her not to 'raise her like a white-eyed wolf'.

She pushed her sister and said, "Keep your voice down. The people watching the excitement have just left. You still want to recruit people? Hurry up and find the letter!"

"It's impossible!"

Liu Erniang also thought it was impossible, but what if it floated to the river and was picked up by someone?

No one can try to destroy her son, otherwise she will fight for her life.

Li Nini waited for a while and the sister-in-law of the He family did not come to her side. It seemed that Er Niang still understood her and she did not need anyone to watch her.

There are four brothers in the He family, Shuang Xi is the second oldest, and the eldest Shuang Lai has been married for three years and has a son named Jun Bao.

The third child is thirteen years old and is already working in the fields to earn work points.

He is forty years old and still in school.

When Li Nini fell into the water just now, everyone came back except the students, including the villagers who came to see what was going on. Maybe they saw that she was okay, so they were all taken away by Liu Erniang.

Li Nisun put on a pair of green cloth sandals beside the kang and got down to the ground. She opened the door to the outhouse. She rarely lit a fire here and she kept the stove spotless.

Erniang said she would buy the cupboards and cabinets before she and Shuangxi got married. Later, the sister-in-law quit. When she got married, she used the second-largest ones. The sister-in-law didn’t like them. She said that if Erniang gave her back the new cupboards, she wouldn’t buy them.

Want new ones.

The second mother followed her secretly and discussed asking her to get the sister-in-law's cabinet, and then give her the cabinet she bought for the wedding.

She totally agreed. Erda's craftsmanship was very good, so she used Erda's as a reminder.

The cabinet hasn't called back yet, should she and Shuangxi still be together?

Beyond the outhouse is the large courtyard.

Er Da was a hard-working and ingenious man, and his five big houses were the first in the village. Although he was almost labeled as a rich peasant landlord at that time, the superiors later found out and saved Er Da.

After the property was distributed to each household, the production team returned the He family's house. Now they live in the house built by Erda. The yard is spacious and neatly fenced with neat wood. It is also the family's large vegetable garden.

son.

Now in Zhengkai Village, Li Nishun has plowed the vegetable garden and planted various vegetables.

Erda is a good farmer, and this skill has been passed on to her. When the harvest is slow, their food is definitely the first to be eaten.

Under the fence, Erda also planted morning glory and step-by-step flowers, but unfortunately Erniang said they were not suitable and pulled out the beans.

It hasn't grown yet.

Li Nishun didn't know why. Although she had a narrow escape, the incident only happened half an hour ago. Why did it seem like a lifetime had passed for her to look at these familiar things again?

When they arrived at the gate, a gust of spring breeze blew by. Li Nini gathered up the blue floral blouse she had made and walked towards the east end of the village against the wind.

It was originally a wasteland, with the foundation and a small door of the ancestral hall of the former wealthy Qin family remaining.

Now the ancestral hall has been converted into a warehouse, the wasteland has been reclaimed, and three new tile-roofed houses have been built there.

It was said that the village built it for a newly returned veteran.

She had seen the back of this veteran once from a distance and had never interacted with him before. But when she woke up, she heard that the man who fished her out of the water was this veteran.

No matter what kind of future she had with Shuangxi, Erda told her to be grateful.

Although she was now penniless and couldn't get anything from home, she still planned to say thank you in person for saving her life.

The windows of the veteran's home were made of green glass. She had seen such glass in a state-owned hotel in the county town. The face would deform when exposed to it. Although she couldn't see clearly what the people outside looked like, the sunlight would pass through the glass when the sun came out.

When the light shines in, it is much brighter than their plastic window drawers.

A retired soldier can actually build a house made of bricks and tiles, and even use glass. He must have been treated well by his superiors for his great service.

I just don’t know why such people would come to their village.

"Is anyone home?"

Li Sunni opened the door and entered the house. He searched both the east and west rooms, but there was no one there.

The room was fully furnished with furniture, tables and chairs, and was very neat and tidy. It looked like the place where the second elder had lived, but there was not a single living thing.

Maybe they went to the fields and the village gave the veterans a large piece of wasteland!

Li Nishun planned to go back first and come back when she had time. Maybe she could get some thank you gifts next time she came.

Just as she was passing by the warehouse, she heard the sound of the door opening.

But the door is closed.

He couldn't help but think of what the villagers had said about the misfortune of the Qin family. The Qin family were all intellectuals, especially the old couple in the third room, who seemed to teach physics at a great university.

She had attended school for several years before. Although she had never studied physics, the second university told her that she would not be afraid of traveling all over the world if she could learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and the theory among them was physics.

It's a pity that they stopped studying and couldn't pass the exam.

It seems that the Qin family was betrayed by their daughter-in-law, and the old couple died. Anyway, it was very tragic. Every time the second daughter passed by, she had to pay tribute to the abandoned foundation.

Said that the pillars were broken.

Could it be that there is really an evil spirit in the Qin family?

No, the hero who rescued people was inside, but why didn't he make a sound?

They basically keep their doors open at night and no one locks the door, but you still have to think twice about going to other people's warehouses. That's where food and items are stored. It doesn't seem to be a good idea.

Li Nini thought for a while, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.

The door didn't move at all, but she felt the wooden beads on her hand light up.

Li Nini's eyes widened in shock. She must have seen it wrong. She was born in New China and grew up under the flag. It was impossible for such a thing to happen.

This wooden bead was picked up by Er Da from nowhere. She remembered that Er Da had given it to her as a rare treasure on her fifth birthday, telling her never to leave her body no matter what, and not to give it to anyone.

But they are surrounded by mountains. Who would care about beads made of wooden balls? No one wants them at all.

The beads on the bracelet are smaller than the fingernails of her little fingers. They were originally a little red, but now they are dark brown when she wears them. They cannot be as bright as sunlight.

She raised her wrist and leaned against the door against the sun. Suddenly her eyes became weightless. When she came back to her senses, the surrounding environment had obviously changed.

Behind her is the door of an old house, but in the distance there are beautiful brick and tile structures. Although they are all beautiful, they are obviously dilapidated and no one has maintained them. There are even people scrawling on the walls!

The bricks and tiles are about to be demolished, so what dignity does their green-sided house have?
