Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 353

...

"Master, what are your plans for the future?"

In the room behind the security team building, when Li Mu and the others were packing their bags, the captain came in from the outside and asked Zhang Jiji with a hesitant expression.

"We are going back to Longhushan, the captain asked...?"

Because of the captain's sudden question, Li Mu and the others who were packing up in the room unconsciously stopped what they were doing and turned their gazes over.

"Longhu Mountain...then will you pass by Shashi Town?"

After Zhang Chengli told the captain the destination of their trip, he thought for a while and then asked some nervous questions.

"Shashi Town? Let me take a look... Hey, this Shashi Town is on the edge of Ganzhou, so I can drop by."

Zhang Jicheng took out the map and compared it, and then found the place called Shashi Town that the captain said, which is not far from Ganzhou. If necessary, he can stop by.

"Phew, that's great, that's it..."

Hearing what Zhang Chengji said, the captain couldn't help showing joy, and then told the purpose of his trip to several people.

It turns out that the captain is not a native of Zhang Dou Town. His surname is indeed Xu, but his name is not Xu Jinjiang but Xu Jinjiang. His father was once an adjutant of a northern warlord. The captain's mother, Jin Niang, knew each other. At that time, Jin Niang was selling cigarettes outside the military camp with a half-grown baby girl, and his father, Adjutant Xu, was a smoking gun.

In the early years, the south was also quite chaotic. There were various disputes between warlords and bandits, and there were constant battles. Jinniang’s father was also the captain’s grandfather. The mother was also overwhelmed with grief and followed, leaving only a pair of daughters.

Fortunately, Jinniang was an adult at that time, and she could still take care of the family affairs, but she still had a seven or eight-year-old younger sister who needed to be taken care of. Her parents were the pillars of the family when they were around. After their parents died one after another, Jinniang took over. He took the burden and started to support his family.

And because of this sudden change in the family, Jinniang's originally agreed marriage also fell through, because the other party disliked her for the death of both parents and brought a bottle of oil.

At a time when no one knows whether they will survive tomorrow, no one is willing to add such a burden to themselves, but Jinniang has never complained about it. After all, she can understand, understanding is understanding, but if she wants to put Leaving her only sister behind, she couldn't do anything.

The two years just after Jinniang's parents passed away were the most difficult period for them. In the world at that time, how could she, a young girl who hadn't been married, have the ability to support her family?
In the end, I could only rely on doing odd jobs for others in exchange for some rice grains, and the little savings left by my parents were not much left after handling their funeral affairs. It can be said that I live in my belt every day.

But no matter how difficult the world is, life still has to go on. My younger sister is growing up. She goes out early and returns late every day to find a job. In the end, some people in the town can't see it, so they lend a hand and make some money. Reselling tobacco leaves, but tobacco leaves, which households don't have any?You can only sell some to passing travelers or peddlers.

But later, when he happened to see her and saw someone wrap the tobacco leaves in a small piece of paper before smoking, he began to think about it.

When she found out that the cigarettes these people were smoking were cigarettes, she followed suit by rolling and stacking the tobacco leaves at home before selling them.

And just at this time, Adjutant Xu's team came to the town to rest. Looking at the team, Jin Niang didn't know what gave her the courage to go to the barracks to ask if she wanted to buy cigarettes.

In this world, everyone basically knows not to provoke warlords, because these people have fought in all directions all the year round, and if they look good today, they may not know which battlefield they died in tomorrow. Therefore, the character of warlords is difficult to figure out these days. Confess your life there.

Although Jinniang knew that going to the military camp was very risky, she had no choice but to make a living with borrowed capital. If she couldn't sell the tobacco leaves, she had no money to pay them back or buy food.

That's why I took the courage to go up. Fortunately, the army under Adjutant Xu's command is not the kind of uneven puppet army, but a well-trained elite soldier, and they just didn't expel Jinniang who came to the barracks rashly. It's hard for her.

However, the attitude of the army made Jinniang seem to see the light, so every morning she came over as usual and asked if she wanted to buy cigarettes?
She wasn't annoyed that he didn't get the attention of the soldiers, after all, he had heard from other people in the town what the virtues of other troops were, and she felt that this army was different from what the townspeople said.

For three days in a row, Jinniang would come here every day, so she was naturally reported to Adjutant Xu. On the fourth day, Adjutant Xu stayed at Yingkou. He happened to have run out of cigarettes in the past two days. Buy some cigarettes and send people away by the way.

What kind of smoke can there be in such a small place? Adjutant Xu thought so. He followed the commander to fight everywhere. Where has he not been?In his eyes, Zhang Dou Town is just a small place the size of a palm, and the smoke in this kind of place must not be much better.

However, when he saw Jinniang, the plan in his heart couldn't be carried out no matter what.

Jinniang brought her younger sister with her when she came to the barracks this time. The two people's clothes completely matched Adjutant Xu's understanding of country people. The rustic dust on his face made him look a little slovenly.

But Jinniang's piercing eyes full of longing for life made his heart tremble.

But how did he know that this was intentionally done by Jinniang, but they were also slim and youthful, and after all they were just weak girls. Not to mention flamboyance, even if it is clean, it will inevitably make people feel strange, so she deliberately does not wash her face on weekdays to make people look dirty, even if someone suddenly sees his face full of dirt Black face, no matter how hot the fire is, it is estimated that it will be extinguished, but her decision has reduced them a lot of intrusion.

So after Jinniang asked if she wanted cigarettes as usual, she was already prepared for him not to, but she heard Adjutant Xu's heavy voice say yes.

The first meeting between the two left a deep impression on each other. When Jin Niang finally sold the cigarettes and excitedly took her sister home, Adjutant Xu could not forget the two people leaving for a long time. Put the simple but not simple cigarette in your mouth, light it up and take a deep breath.

"Ahem... Sure enough, there is no good smoke in this small place!"
