Chapter Twelve Surprised

Xiaoheishan Island.

Anjie's first impression of this island was that it was small and had a long and narrow coastline. According to visual inspection, the entire island should be less than ten square kilometers.

Before the ship docked, Anjie saw a group of people standing on the pier from a distance. They were standing bustling, and everyone was dressed as a strongman.

It looks like they are specifically responsible for transporting supplies.

This ship is a supply ship, with potatoes, cabbage, some buckwheat noodles and a little white flour piled in the hold.

Among them, potatoes and cabbage account for the largest proportion and are also the staple foods on the island.

Not only Xiaoheishan Island, but also the core island Songshan Island, the staple food on the island is potatoes and cabbage.

Recently, Anjie almost vomited after eating potatoes.

Fortunately, Jiang Defu was a senior military officer on the island and had some white flour in his quota.

"Chief, the ship is about to dock. Please go back to the warehouse."

At this time, a young man in military uniform hurriedly ran to the deck and said in a respectful tone.

"I'm not the chief."

It was the first time someone called him that. An Jie was not used to it and waved his hands repeatedly.

However, the young man ignored her and still called her chief.

"Chief, you'd better return to the warehouse quickly. There will still be a lot of noise when we dock."

"Thanks."

Seeing that the other party insisted on shouting like this, Anjie simply stopped arguing with the other party and thanked him before turning around and going back to the warehouse.

Not long after Anjie sat down, the ship suddenly shook.

Boom!

Boom!

As two dull collision sounds were heard, the shaking of the ship finally became smaller.

"Chief, I'll take you off the boat."

With that said, the young man in military uniform quickly picked up Anjie's luggage. The bag that Anjie carried with him was very heavy, and it was full of food.

Most of them are white noodles and the other half are soba noodles.

In addition to food, Anjie also brought some canned food and candies, which are distributed by the army as subsidies specifically for senior officers.

All kinds of supplies are in short supply on the market now, and many things are unavailable.

After all, transportation of materials is no more difficult here than in the city, and even if you have a ticket, you may not be able to buy what you want.

"Young man, I can do it myself."

Upon seeing this, Anjie quickly stretched out his hand to stop the young man in military uniform: "Also, don't call me chief, I'm not from the army."

"Chief, this is an order given to me by my superiors. You must be sent to your destination."

The young man in military uniform ducked sideways and said in a loud voice.

An Jie helplessly raised his forehead. How could she, a weak woman, compete with a young and strong young man? She saw that the other party looked extremely serious.

She decided to give up her defense.

Soldiers are all like this. They are single-minded. The orders of their superiors are God and they must be obeyed unconditionally.

Their Lao Jiang is also like this.

As soon as the order was given, Lao Jiang went to Songshan Island alone without hesitation, even if she did not agree.

Immediately afterwards, Anjie and the boy in military uniform walked towards the dock one after another. But just as they reached the deck, Anjie's footsteps suddenly stopped.

She saw someone.

Among the crowd, Li Jie was dressed as a coolie, wearing a close-fitting shorts, a straw hat on his head, a towel around his neck, and a pole on his shoulders.

If he wasn't particularly familiar with him, An Jie almost wouldn't recognize Li Jie.

My brother-in-law is obviously darker and thinner, no, he should be stronger.

Is this still her high-spirited brother-in-law?

"Anjie!"

The moment he saw An Jie, Li Jie grinned and waved to her enthusiastically.

With this shout, the look on Anjie's face suddenly froze.

At this moment, she couldn't help but have a doubt in her heart.

'Is this person really her brother-in-law Ouyang Yi?'

My brother-in-law is such a proud and arrogant person. According to his nature, he has become so depressed. When he meets an acquaintance, he will probably choose to stay away.

How could he be like now, greeting himself happily?

An Jie looked at Li Jie intently, confirmed it several times, and finally came up with a result.

The appearance, figure, and voice were all right. This man was indeed his brother-in-law.

On the other side, the young man in military uniform looked at Li Jie, and then at the chief's wife who was stunned on the spot, thinking to himself.

'What is the relationship between the chief's wife and that man?'

friend?

relative?

"how?"

While An Jie was stunned, Li Jie had already walked onto the boat.

"Don't you recognize me?"

"how come."

An Jie shook his head, then looked at it again, and said in surprise.

"Brother-in-law, you have really changed a lot."

Li Jie smiled and said, "Nothing remains the same among people."

"Let's go, I will take you to meet your sister. If she knows that you are coming to see her, she will be extremely happy."

As he said that, Li Jie glanced at the young man in military uniform beside him.

"Thank you, young man. Please give me your luggage."

"no!"

The young man in military uniform refused righteously and said: "Sending the leader to his destination safely is the task assigned to me by my superiors."

"give it to me."

Li Jie patted him on the shoulder. The young man was quite honest, but a little stubborn.

Afterwards, Li Jie easily took the luggage from the young man in military uniform.

The weight in his hand suddenly disappeared, and the young man in military uniform was stunned.

He lowered his head and glanced at the luggage that had arrived in Li Jie's hands, with deep doubts in his eyes.

How did the thing get into the other party's hands?

He clearly edited very tightly just now.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in the young man's mind.

The other party must be the kind of master who hides everything deeply. Otherwise, his movements would not be so crisp and clear, and he would not even have time to react.

In the next second, the expression on the young man's face slowly changed from doubtful to eager to try.

He wants to learn this trick!

An Jie was not aware of the 'confrontation' between Fang Cun. She was only thinking about her sister An Xin.

The once high-spirited brother-in-law became a coolie on the dock, and judging from his demeanor, he didn't seem to care about this change at all.

My brother-in-law has become like this, where is my sister?

What has become of that gentle, intellectual, and poetic sister?

Will she become an ordinary rural woman like her brother-in-law?

Anjie couldn't wait to see her sister. She couldn't wait to clear up the doubts in her heart right away.

On the next road, An Jie unconsciously speeded up his pace, and the three of them walked until they came to a private house.

This house is located in the center of Xiaoheishan Village, with a two-person-high wall erected outside.

Before they even entered the courtyard, bursts of crisp children's voices reached the ears of the three of them.

"Ah, oh, goose, clothes, black, roundabout... Bo, slope, touch, Buddha..."

Hearing these strange and awkward tones, Anjie couldn't help but feel a little doubt in his heart.

People of later generations must know very well that these are the initial consonants and finals of Chinese Pinyin.

As early as 1955, the government established the "Chinese Pinyin Plan Approval Committee", but the Chinese language is broad and profound, and it took nearly two years to pool the efforts of the whole country. It was not until October 1957 that the amendment was finalized.

It was not until 1958 that the Chinese Pinyin program entered primary school classrooms across the country as a compulsory course for primary school students.

Anjie has not yet become a teacher, so he is not particularly aware of the changes in the education sector.

That's why she was confused.
